Jl! H Not Hardwood Sawdust ATWOOD'S SPICES A to absolutely puro. Try them and you will ho surprised at tho difference botweon AT WOOD'S SPICES and tho ordinary-ones. Brock & ilG&oraas rue noDBitN ORuaaisTS WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1902. With Ilryan and "Teddy" address ing the iieoplo from tho rear end of trains next campaign, it ought to be a strenuous one. The doctors have improved their record. Tho latest is 150 graves rob bed in Indiana. But this is a small per cent of those they havo filled by reason of tho negligent and experi mental work. It would seem that King Alfonso is not so crazy after all. There has been method in his madness all along. Ills deslro to marry the American girl was commendable and it turns out that his mother's past life was not such as mado her the fit associate of a king. Tho report that the strike is about to end is a good one. It pleases the entire country. While both sides havo commlted grave errors, all of these will bo forgotten if the matters are settled. But if a settlement is not reached very soon there will be long and bitter things harbored against the wrong-doings of both sides. And now tho school teachers of Chicago are going to form a union. Tho next thing will be a teachers' merger. But still, if there is any class on earth that needs protection it is teachers. They do moio work and receive less pay than any other class that devotes its life to the good of the world and its education. Tho anthracite mining strike is be coming more far-reaching every day In its effects. Schools havo been com pelled to close in Ithode Island on account of scarcity of coal and tho approach of winter is already caus ing alarm in many of the large cities. But tho Northwest Pacific country is not alarmed. Sho has timber, in spite ot the forest fires, to furnish fuel and new coal fields are being opened up that will supply the coun try ore long at reasonable prices. While this section of the country never realized that there had been a serious money pinch, yet it Is an nounced that tho serious pinch is over. This Is certainly good nows. Willie Wall street and tho East go wild over those kind of things, tho great Pacific North west never feels them. It seems to bo true, especially, that tho great In land Empire will never feel a de pression In tho money market, any where, her resources aro so wonder ful. Now that tho British American to bacco trust has been formed and pro poses to control tho tobacco trade or Europo, it gives a chance for tho pas sago of an International law on the subject. The trusts have ro.lo enouph shod over state and government laws and they ought to havo a chance at an International law. They aro the biggest things on earth and they ought to havo a chanco to show their strength to Its full limit. I Every fow days tho reports como of sailors try lug to make their escap: from vessels and not infrequent! . they Jump (.verhoard in the harbon of tho different porta and lose their lives in trying to gain ihelr liberty. Iteports nro also as numerous as the arrival of foreign sailing vessels of tho crn.oitio3 .u jailors on tho high aoaa, They aro .Knocked down and cuffed about by-drunko., and cruel officers and tho slightest resistance on tho part of the sailors means tho PENDLETON Irons and It cad and wntcr. With tho advancement of civilization nni humanity the cause of the sailor Is most neglected. His life Is neces sarlly u menial one, but tl.ero is no reason that he should hu made a slave. Tho erlest slave'Jom of and out and modern times ins never ex cellled that that exists in rnllor life today. Willie humane O'Jetlos nnd governments are relieving the dis tressed of all lands, mir attontlor should lio g!ven to tho caueo of the slave ou the high seas. I So Carrie Nation got into trouble at Yale. Carrie seems to Imagine that she can take her llttlo hatchet into any place nnd raise any kind of Cain, hut Carrie, nor none of her stripe are desired anywhere. Tho Ynlo boys did the right thing. Tho sooner the cranks and fanatics are crushed throughout tho country the better. There is no longer any room for those who blockade the channels of industry and commerce They should bo shoved a3ldo like so much chaff or driftwood. -Yale is usually right. CENSUS REVELATIONS. Among the minor statistics ot tho late census are some that are of con siderable interest on acount of the revelation they make of certain facts In our social organism that arc not readily perceived when society is considered in the mass. Tho careful count of census taking brings out these exceptional Instances and by aggregating them shows they fill a much larger place In our life than is generally supposed. The practice of what may bo called "infant marriage" is evidently much more common in the United States than any casual observer would sus pect, for the census enumerators found CG7 boys under 15 years of ago who were married, and 37S5 girls married under that age. There were 33 widowers and 12G widows of tho same tender ago, and, moreover, there wero soven divorced boys and thirty divorced girls who at tho time tho census was taken were not yet" 15 years old. Another revelation with respect to marriage Is that In proportion to tho male population moro men get mar ried in Illinois than in any other stato In tho union, tho proportion of mar ried men to males over 15 years of ago In that state being nearly 5S per cent. No explanation is offered by the Census Bureau for this superior readiness on the part of Illinois men1 to take upon themselves the bonds of matrimony, but probabbly the con sciousness that ready relief from tho yoke is always to be found in the di vorce courts of Chicago may havo something to do with tho fact. Of all tho states Texas has tho largest number of women who marry under 15 years of age, and also tho largest number who are divorced. It would appear from this that an early marriage is a pretty suro forerunner of nn arly separation. Marry in haste and repent aulckly seems to be tho rule there. Still while Texas has a larger absolute number of divorced women than any other state, the per centage of divorced women in pro portion to population Is less in that state than In tho territories of Now Mexico and Arizona. Alaska, how over, takes tho lead In this respect, for 1.3 per cent of all tho women found In that territory told the cen sus enumerators that they havo been uivorceu. A third Interesting fpntnrn nf ttin population statistics is tho revelation that thfre were among natlvo horn A morions ovor 10 years of ago 1, 171,332 who could not speak the Eng lish language. Of theso only 180,000 wero Indians, Chinese and Japan ese. Tho remainder wero of white races. They wero ot course tho chil dren of foreign immigrants who have not learned our language. It Is to bo noted, however, that tho nativo born of foreign parcntago Is eager to ac quire our language, and whllo tho total number of those who havo not learned It Is largo, still in proportion to tho total number of such children it is by no means extraordinary. A nnal feaiuro ot slgnlllcanco Is tho blrtu rate. With tho exception of tho Clermnns nnd tho Itnllans tho civ ilized races appear to bo diminishing In reproductive power. Tho recent census in Great Britain Bhowa that tlu birth rnto thoro decreased from Jt to 31.57 per thousand during tho past 30 years. In Franco tho decline has been much greater. In the United States tho birth rnte is oven less than In Great Britain, amounting In 1900 to only 27.2 per thousand. What is more significant Is that tho statistics show that tho nveruge an nual increase of population through excess of births over denifts In the decade, 1890-1900, was 30.5 por thous and for the class horn of foreign white parents, and only 19.5 per thousand for the class born oi nativo whlto parents. In the northeastern rrnnn nf ntntcs tho il SDrotiortlon 1)0 Mrnmt Hin twn nlnRQna WflH OVell morO (itrll.-ltiir! tln rntn nf Increase for tho foreign class was 39.G nnd that for the iinllv. rlasH 3.S.

Its death rato ox ceedlng Its birth rato by 1.5 per thousaul, whllo in the roroign popula tion the birth rato exceeded tho death rato by 44.5 per thousand. Such statistics show that while tho sun of prosperity is shining most brightly upon our country, it is not without, ilnrlc snots unon US snicniliu surface. Probabbly, howover, thoro mo ainm lvhn tin lint limit UnOU a de clining birth rato as nn ovll.
