Philadelphia, Aug. 27. The Ledger's
New York special corresnondeut says:
There is a disnosition at republican head
quarters to attribute important political
consequences to the president's journey
to California. No one supposes he will
make a stump speech of a partisan char

Question, the importance of commercial
treaties with Mexico and Central Amer

mining and marine industries, and other
matters pertaining to the business and in
dustrial development ofthe country. In
this way thev think the p -esiden will be
able incidentally to convince the people
of both Oregon and California that the
worst thing that could happen to their
material interest mst now would be a
change of administration for the sake of
change. I don't know what means the
New York .Republican politicians have for
thus forecasting the president s miss. on

that 'such of them as are vojching .or

to have been hanged here for the murder
of R. P. Grayson and wife, had committed
suicide. When the prison ajtho ities
visited the cell at 5 this morning they
found him in the last agonies of death.
Near him was a large pool of blood, and
blood was issuing from a wound in his
left wrist, which he had made with a pen

Chicago, Aug. 27. The Chicago and
Alton railway company has given notice
of a large reduction of rates on freight
destined to points in New Mexico. The
reduction is equal to twenty cents on first
class, fifteen on second, fifteen on third
and ten on fourth, and five on special less
than tarifl rates per hundred pounds.
This has been necessitated bv reason of

Then many physicians, who have a good

a physician comes upon a rare disease,
he's obliged to uost himself on a dead
body in order to save a live one. The
price of a body depends upon where you
buy it. To get a body here costs us
about $35. You buy them in New York
for 5 apiece. The Maine Medical Asso

trying to make a way to secure bodies

First Be true, bo genuine. No edu
cation is worth anything that does not
include this. A man had better not
know how to read, never learn a letter of
the alphabet, and be true and genuine
in intention and action, rather than be
ing learned in all science and in all lan
guages to be at the same time false in
heart and counterfeit in life.
Second Be pure in thought and lan
guage pure in mind and body. An
impure mind, young or old, poisoning
tho society where he moves with smutty
stories and impure examples, is a moral
ulcer, a plague spot, a leper who ought
to be treated as were tho lepers of old,
who were to cry "Unclean!" as a warning
to save others from the xiestilence.
Third Be unselfish. To care for the
feelings and comforts of others. To be
polite. To bo just in all dealings with
others. To be generous, noble and
manly. This will include a genuine
reverence for the aged and things
sacred.
Fourth Be self-reliant and self

be industrious always, and self-supporting
