A QUERY.
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.

Co4-liver ? oil suggests
consumption, which is al
most "unfortunate. ' ;
Its best Use is before you
fear consumption ; when
you begin to get thin, weak,
run down ; then is the pru
dent time to begin to take
care, and the best way to
take care is to supply the
system with needed fat and
strength. Scott's Emulsion
of cod-liver oil, with hypo
phosphites, will bring back
plumpness to those who
have lost ; it 'and make
strength where raw - cod
liver oil would be a burden.
