Catalonians declare themselves quite independent of Spain

An identity which has not been lost in its five centuries
under the Spanish crown. Catalonia occupies the northeast
ern triangle of the Spanish peninsula, from the river Ebro
to the Pyrenees. Barcelona is its principal city, and the
center for decades both of Spanish industry and of the rev
olutionary movement. 1 . ,
r The people speak their own language, distinct from the
Spanish, resembling more the speech of Languedoc on the
French side of the Pyrenees. They are lighter in complex
ion, with less of the admixture of Moorish blood than other
parts of Spain. .
Catalonia was long the corridor -of; conquest. .Rome
worked its way around the Mediterranean coast to place its
eagles at Saguntum. Hannibal from the Carthaginian prov
ince of lower Spain started his armies which seized Sagan
tum, crossed the Ebro, -marking definite invasion of the
Roman empire, traversed Catalonia, scaled the Pyrenees,
the Alps and swept down into Italy to conquest and to de
feat. After, the Punic wars Catalonia was an important part
of the Roman empire. Then came the Goths, rude barbar
ians from the north, who built a kingdom in Spain on the
ruins of Roman power. The Moors swept up from the south,
hot with the religious fury of Mohammed. They seized Cat
alonia in 712. forcing many of its inhabitants across the
Pyrenees, holding it until 788 when . Charlemagne bore the
banners of France and the cross to the relief of the con
quered Christians. Finally the province became an appanage
of Aragon, and when Ferdinand of Aragon was wed to Isa
bella of Castile, founding the modern Spanish kingdom,1
Catalonia, much against its will, was merged under the
unified government..
' - With Catalonia loyal to the "new republic, with the
thrifty, business-like citizens of Barcelona supporting the
new regime, there is much of promise for Spain, which
within the week has thrown off the incubus of five centuries
of royal mis-rule. Time alone will tell "how solid the new
government will be, and how firm will -be .the affections of
the independent-minded Catalonians. j -

Publicity They Love It
FRANK R. KENT of the Baltimore-Sun is as acute an ob
server and severe a critic as the political scene has had
for many years. He is one among the political writers who
retains His attitude of aloofness. Usually the reporter soon
er or later becomes the protagonist either of party or of in
dividual coming into the favor of himself or the paper he is
writing for. Nojt so with Kent, who writes like a judge, yet
r ,with the devastating style of a free lance journalist.
: Speaking in Washington before the society of American
newspaper editors, Kent declared that publicity, newspaper
publicity, is what public officials crave, I and not merely
publicity, but favorable publicity. Careers are founded on
publicity. Publicity does not mean necessarily, editorial fav
or, but news attention. The public draws its own conclusions
more from the news columns than sthe editorial columns.
Its reactions come from the account of events rather than
intelligent analysis of the events and the motives which the
editorial page supplies.
The difficulty for the public man of course is to analyze
tne publicity he is getting. He is. naturally flattered by the
friendly news articles; while the sharp criticism he either
refuses to read or to heed. True it is, he cannot chart his
course by what the newspapers say, for their voice is di
vided. The successful politician is one who correctly ap
praises the public reaction to the publicity which his actions
" receive. .
The important thing to be noted from the Kent com
ment is that newspaper publicity Temains the dominant
force in molding public opinion. People may say they do not
believe what they read in the papers. But if they read it
often enough they will not only believe it but act upon it.
May we add the further footnote that never in our his
tory was newspaper reporting so pbjecti ve, and so little
partisan as at the present time.

AN eleven-year old boy, Jimmie Hargreaves, who lives at
Yakima, saw a little red cap floating in an irrigation
ditch through that city last Thursday. He recognized the
cap as belonging to a little neighbor boy of 18 .months, so
he ran along the ditch and sure enough there was the boy
being carried along in the current. Jimmie -reached down
and pulled the boy out of the water, turned him over his
knee to get the water out of his lungs and used artificial
respiration to get his lungs to working. He succeeded and
then carried the dripping, but breathing youngster back to
his parents. " . 1-

The Lausanne with the "great

over two years.

Now he planned another station
on the Umpqua, which he had vis
ited before going east in 1838. On
Tuesday, August 18th, 1840, tak

mala and camp equipment, he
started south, accompanied by
Rev. Gustarus Hines, Dr. Elijah
White and an Indian boy tor
guide, whom they called "Cap
tain." They galloped away from
the old mission after a late start
and "came 10 miles, to "where
ground had been broken for the
mission saw and grist mills." (To
what was to be Salem.)
They traveled over the hills
southward and arrived at "San-

a California party had thrown a
rude bridge across the stream. It
is now called the Sluslaw. The
California party was no doubt
Michel LaFrambolse's Spanish bri
gade, of the Hudson's Bay com'
pany.
The next day at Elk creek they
left I the "California trait," the
northward extension ot El Camino
Real the king's highway of the
Spanish missions. On Monday,
the 24th, they arrived at Fort
Umpqua and were welcomed kind
ly by "Gonea" and his Indian
wife, in charge there. I mis is

a different form tor Gonea.)
Here Dr. White turned back
with the Indian boy. "Captain,"
as he had decided to return east
on the Lausanne's homeward
journey; with his family. Dr.
White and Jason Lee had had a
disagreement, of which much was
made. It was no doubt caused.
among other things, by a differ
ence of opinion on the manage
ment of the missions. Here is
quoted the following excerpts
from Dr. (and Mrs.) White's book,
"Ten Years In Oregon:"

"Dr. White was accompanied by
an. Indian boy, who had been a
slave captured ln warfare when
10 years old, by 1 the Cmpquas
from the Chestes, remaining with
them for years, until purchased
by one of the Hudson's Bay com
pany, who afterwards settled in
the Willamette. Here the doctor
was no time to warm her up. Bet

over the smooth concrete floor.
A Perfect Target t
The guard scrambled to his
feet and pounced upon the shot
gun. The man with the puttees
was up, too, running toward the
fuselage, A gun glittered in his
right hand. The rolling plane was
heavy, getting underway slowly.
She lurched off the runway and
began to waddle clumsily across
the rutted turf of the landing
field. . :
A hand appeared on the pad
ded edge of the cockpit, right at
Dave's shoulder. A sweaty face,
twisted with : rage, appeared
above the cowling, a perfect tar
get, but Dave could not bring
himself to kill in cold blood. He
turned in his seat and punched
the gangster pilot full in the
mouth. The contorted face dis
sapeared, but the dirty hand re-'
mained, clutching the padded
cowling. Dave pried one ot the
fingers loose and bent it up and
back until Jhe thought the bone
would break. Perhaps it did. The
hand opened convulsively, and
dropped out -of sight.

remarkably trusty for one ot hU
race. They retraced their lonely
way over the mountain; . . . found
an encampment for the night.
They built a fire beside a log and
stretched themselves on the
ground; but the doctor could not
drive from his mind the Idea that
he was 100 miles from any of his
own race, and in the midst of,
for aught he knew, hostile tribes,
and It dissipated the repose his
weary form so much coveted.
"About sunrise they were arous

to their alarm, discovered advancing-
towards them, on the last
night's trail, half dozen well
armed Indians. Springing to
their feet, they grasped the guns
which lay beside theta, and
stood pa the guard; but soon saw
there was no occasion for appre
hension, for the leader came for
ward, trailing his weapon, and
proffered his hand with the grace
of a well bred Frenchman. His
companions followed his example,
and then quietly seated themselves
on the ground. They said they
had heard the missionaries were
in the country, seeking tor a place
to settle; that they were glad, and
had come to seek and welcome
them, but. being unable to find
them, had discovered the trail th
day before and followed it.
"Alter some conversation the
chief gave a slight history of the
last six years of his life. A large
party of the Hudson's Bay com
pany, passing through the country
on their way to California, persuad
ed mm to go with them on a
hunting and trapping excursion to
that country. He gave a very lust
description of the character of
the company, light, .gay, frivolous.
and sometimes profane. One only
of the party widely differed from
tne rest. The one. the chief ob
served, at the close, of each day's
journey, to retire to a distance
from the camp and kneel in an
attitude of deen devotion, for
some length of time. This, with
his calm, consistent demeanor, im

forcibly that be begged and re

him, and there listened to the de

was followed by good results, for
he learned of God.1 Ills Son. and

the time to come when he should
return to him home, for he wished
to communicate to his people his
lately, acquired knowledge of a
religion which had Imparted to
his spirit a new and delicious en
joyment. ; 1 ...
"At his strange revelations they
were amazed, and like a 'little
leaven leavening the whole lump
the work began, and spread
among them, and, for a time, a
forcible change was -perceived in
the whole tribe. But gradually,
as it often is in other countries,

pointing to his little number, 'all
but tnese have left me. and the
good and the right way.' Tears
rolled down his cheeks, and grief
was portrayed on his dark face.
I've told them all r know, and
many times, till they have become
tired, and now my heart jumps
within me that the missionaries
are coming to ; give them - more

When the time for separation ar

the doctor observed with interest
the humble, devoted bearing of
his visitors, and their emotions,
