A report of a recent endeavor to as certain tbe minda of some very young school children id this city on 'the sub 'ject of Thanksgiving may be of interest In these days of phyeiological research. With Professor Gamier at work- in the forests of Africa on tbe language of apt-B, Signor L-!mbra:ii on the cries and tUy talk of- i.hihq.w, the. thoughts and t-xprepfcidns, ui lie lutfe fellows who have but ricmtly learned to use the mother tongue, should surely be worthy of philosophical consideration. This was the day after Thanksgiving. The tfeacher. haying ..carefully explained to them the' Thanksgiving idea, called upon them Individually to know what reason each had for being thankful. ;The responses were prompt and inter esting Number OT.e, turkey; t two, turkey ; three, turkey ; four struck out ;m new line of thought : "Because I have a little baby sister at home."" This was a suggestive line 'of thought,-and -five gave "Becaiise I have a sister and a brother, and he is here!" Evidently this one did not prize her blessings the less because they had been eoiiie time given. Then followed "turkey," broken :by one small damsel who said addition 'ally: "'Because we had turkey rnd .dressing." Then comes the wee Dorothy, who, in a voice clear as a bell, said : "1 iave a Uttle sister at home, too." The :next speakers were not so highly ' fa Vored, and so returned to the original idea of tuikey; all but one, who evi dently thought she was saying the cor rect thing, "Because there is a God." ' Does the very great prominence given to the subject of good eating refer to the fact that these little humans are but little more than animals, and that nei ther eoul or affection has made, as yet, much of a start? or does it mean that truly all are largely dependent upon their stomachs for their greatest enjoy ment, and that these little fellows have not learned to conceal that physiological lacit ur, still lurtner, noes it mean that, like sheep, they simply followed the lead the first speaker happened to give? We see examples of. this tendency in conventions of older persona. 'Men nre but children of a larger growth, we are tojd, and the progress of the devel opment from the purely animal to the statesman, the poet, the philosopher, 'the man or woman of successful achieve ment, is always one of absorbing in terest. '" y -There will be much ' disappointment upon the Pacific coast at the decision of the republican national committee to ho'd the convention in St; Louis. - The people of San Francisco would have given the- delegates a kind of entertain ment they would have received nowhere else. The difference in time was the great obstacle to ' the Golden Gate city being chosen, and as the earth could not be made to revolve the other way, no human agency can be blamed for San Francisco's defeat. As showing the result of Commis sioner Roosevelt's efforts in giving New York better police protection, the fast ia significant that Dr. Parkburet ha9 found it safe and wise to withdraw the agents of the city vigilance committee from the detection of violations of law. He testifies that tho police give all poe. sibla aid, and are no longer partners in the profits of law- breakers. How great the change from three tears ago ! ; The attempt in the house of repre sentatives to impeach Mr. Bayard will not amount to anything. His offense is not serious enough to warrant such pro ceedings, though he well deserves cen sure iforhrs utterances.- Bayard has ceased to properly represent Americans 'at the court of St. James, but seems bent on courting popularity with the English. If Mr. Bayard decides that he . prefers England to America there will e no dissent on- this side the water. William Waldorf Astor, the American-tarned-Engliehman, has not lost all his feeling, for America. On Thanksgiving day, by his orders, there was provided a feaBt for newsboys in New York City, at which hundreds of hungry urchins were fed. It is a custom of Mr. Aetor's to give this Thanksgiving dinner yearly, thus catrying out- the wishes of his wife, now dead. " " ''- - at The Dalles. The chances for it pass ing both bouses and securing the signa ture of the president are about -as good as the prospects of the Democrat's elect ing the next president. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. Senator Mitchell has introduced a bill in the United States senate appro priating $100,000 for a public huilding Heppner Gazette : - The woolen mill prr ject is being 'agitated quite freely In Salem and it tbe required subsidy can be raised the mill recently destroyed by fire at that place will be re-built. Tbe Dalles would like to have this industry at that point, but it is almost an assured lies mat oaiem win ges n. La Grande Chronicle: ' 'There is talk, of a "suit to enjoin officials of Baker ounty from paying scrip of that county issued in excess of the constitutional limitations. The indebtedness of the county is about $200,000 and this large sum has nearly all been piled tip by ex travagance doling from the. public crib. It is now a difficult matter to call a halt, because the county is compelled, in many instances, to pay nnueual prices for supplies by reason of tbe heavy dis count from the face of its scrip. r . Spokesman Review: A small standing army is required as tbe nucleus aronnd which to rally the grand army of the re public in time of ereat national crisis, and a difference of a few thousand in its membership is not a matter of great con cern, . provided safe principles are ap plied in fixing its relationship to the people. In. event of war with a foreign power, the chief reliance would be found in tbe navy and coast defenses, and in care of invasion, the national glory and salvation would depend upon the patri otism of the masses.
