country that Is rapidly ijnlnp lo the
Uoj;h, patriots nro scarce. There nro
' a srent ninny things ilor.e nowadays
on paper and through tho hot air
process.
A happy wedding is announced
from Yorktown, Va., whore the
groom Is 102 and the bride SO years
of age. The gay young couple are
negroes.

Killing game out of season Is one
of the most Iniquitous' offenses
against the laws on the statute
books. There Is nothing more enjoy
able than a good hunt and if tho
game laws were obeyed this pleasure
would bo divided up properly, and
within a fewvyears this section would
be the home of game birds.
The packing companies have form
ed their combine In spite of tho fact
that they were reported to be alarm
ed at the position taken by President
Roosevelt. It is possible, however.
that they took advantage of the pres
Ident's Illness to form the combine
when he could not annihilate them.
The town of Gervals was destroyed
yesterday. The loss Is estimated at
more than $100,000. This Is where
Tracy and Merrill enacted some of
the most daring escapades In the
early chapter of tho famous man
hunt. If such destruction should fol
low the entire trail of the outlaws,
the principal cities of two states
would be destroyed.
President Roosevelt is .artvlsed to
seek rest. What is considered rest
for a president would be Irksome toll
forvmost men. The matters of state
demand his constant attention, and
there are politicians that will And
their way to him and bore him though
they knew It would cost his life. A
well president deserves the sympathy
of the public and a sick one should
have the prayers and best wishes of
all of the people.
The fight Is on In earnest In Port
land against the wide-open town.
Merrill has been compelled to go be
fore the grand Jury as a witness to
statements ho made In tho council
chambers. Merrill only made state
ments that were commonly known in
Portland, but he emphasized It In a
manner as If he knew the transac
tions personallly. A great many
things are known to a moral cer
tainty that can not bo proved In a
court of Justice. Portland's crusade
promises to bo an exciting one If not
an effective one.
The national Irrigation congress
which convened at Colorado Springe.
Colorado, yesterday Is ono of the
most Important bodies that has evor
met for the good of the great West.
This organization has been hammer
ing at congress for years to obtain
assistance to reclaim the arid lands
of the West and It was through It
that the bill was Introduced and
passed. Its purpose now Is to aid
the government In forming such
plans as will the most speedily put
tho work into operation, and securo
tho early reclamation of tho millions
of acres .iiat are now lying Idle.
Tho failure on tho part of the pub
lic to rush before the hoard of equal
ization to have assessments raised.
Illustrates the fact that there are al
ways more chronic howlers than
men of action. Any one can stand
on the street corners and score the
manner in which the public affairs
are conducted and can cnlculato to
a mathematical certainty how long
It will tnlco to land on a back seat,
but when It conies to facing the sit
uation and offering a remedy or tak
ing such action as will recover a
The fact that farm hands and rail'
road laborers aro scare in this see
tlon speaks well for tho country In
1 spite of the Inconvenience that It
causes. It means that nu undeslra-
'ble class has taken Its flight to
, warmer climes. It starts out early
on Its way to the winter home in
t California and when spring opens, to-
(turns again to the harvests of this
, country. If this class should remain
here over winter It would not benefit
, the community, as it Is usually of
I the hobo and petty thievery clement,
The men who live here regularly,
whatever their calling may be, are of
the best citizenship, and such men
as earn and command good wages,
It is well that tho coast and Callfor
nla catches the other class.
The national capital has never
done a greater thing than she is do
ing at this time. The (. A. R. Is re
celving one of the grandest ovations
In Its history. These old heroes are
rapidly passing away, and while they
live the nation owes them the duty
of honoring them wherever the occa.
sion arises. The survivors of the
Spanish-American war are already
dividing the honors with them,
and it Is only a question of time un
til the old veterans will occupy a po
sition with the new heroes like that
of thoveterans of the war with Mex
ico to the veterans of the civil' war
Their deeds of valor will In a meas
ure bo forgotten In the fresher sto
ries of the heroes of San Juan, San
tiago, Manila and in the warfare that
followed in the Philippines.
The papers are making a howl
about a New York clergyman who re
cently sued and recovered for servi
ces rendered In conducting a funeral.
He was called outside of his parish
to perform the service, and It is
claimed that as he was not serving
the congregation that had him em
ployed he had the right to charge
tho outsider. Then others claim that
a preacher should not think of charg
ing for saying a good word about
deceased and uttering a last prayer
for his soul. Anyway, the court held
that the divine should bo paid. Why
should not preachers be paid for
their services the same as other
people? Everything Is being brought
to a business basis. A preacher of
today must be educated and equip
ped or he cannot get a position. It
costs money to do this. Tho cold
charities of tho world have other
places to spend their force without
taking up preachers and educating
them. When one skirmishes for an
education and equips himself to as
to be able to fill a pulpit for an In
tellectual audience ho Is certainly
worthy of compensation. Tho
preacher of this day and time who
would go about the country taking
his chances on charity alone, only
wearing that which Is given him and
eating from tho same source, would
soon look worse than a tramp and
got as lean as a fence post In the
desert. Ho would bo, called a fa
natic or lunatic and be shunned by
the best church people and would
not he admitted Into their society.
Yes, pay the preachers, They earn
their salaries and besides, they have
troubles of their own.
Dinner over, they put on their hats
and hasten down town, If thoy nro
young, or they sink Into nn easy
chnlr and fall nsleep, It they lmvo
passed the larking ngc of adolescence.
The boys who go down town, lounge
about the corners all evening. Tho
elders who stay nt homo sleep all
night,
Time, somebody hns snld, Is tho
stuff that life Is made of, and wo
ought to keep a strict account of how
we spend it. Tho evening Is tho leis
ure time of most men, nnd leisure
should not be wasted In Idleness, but
should be turned to use.
Every man and woman ought lo
road some good book for an hour or
two hours each day. Having resolved
to do this, a man ought to make It
a solemn duty, as It were a lellgloim
oince. to stick to his resolution.
Nothing should bo permitted to inter
fere with his reading. If, on nny day.
ho must be otherwise employed dur
ing his reading hour, let hlin make it
up at some other time during tho
same day. And If he ennnut read the
full time today, let hlm make up for
it tomorrow.
Perseverance will make reading a
habit and a pleasure. The keenest
pleasures of life ore drawn from
liooks, and the man that has tho
reading habit, would rather have It
than J50.000.
In order to get the most out ot
reading, one should read with some
system, suggests a wrltor In tho San
Francisco Bulletin. It Is well to
cover a limited period of history and
to read everything, formal histories,
biographies. autobiographies, mo-
molrs. diaries and letters, relating to
that period. Or let the thread of one's
reading be some branch of natttrnl
or political science, such as biology
or economics. But if one confine him
self only to standard novels and
plays, and go through Shakespeare,
Dickons, Thackeray, Scott, Jane .Aus
ten and others of the first class of
writers, he will broaden and improve
his mind and fit himself better for
his duy's work.
Make use of the ods and ends of
time which most of us give to dawd
ling. Most of the English classics
can bo had in pocket t;dltlons for
ten cents or a quarter of a dollat,
and a man who finds himself with ton
minutds on his hands, occasionally,
Is well provided if he has a good booit
with him.
The expression "killing time." is
abhorrent. Why should wo wish to
kill time? Time Is given us tor .i
purpose. We ought to make the most
of It. The man who says he has
nothing to do is Ignorant or neell
gent of his duty to himself the duty
of making himself a better, wiser,
uroaderminiled man day by dav. Kill
ing time is intellectual and moral
suicide. Moments are precious. They
are not to bo thrown away. There
is always something to do. Salem

EVIL OF TIME-KILLING.
What .do you do with your even
Ings? Do you waste them or do you
employ them well? It would be safo
to say that tho maporlty ot men
squander their lolsure. They 'go homo
to dinner, after their day's work.
duel
the
dark was a favor
ite with duelists.
Two men were
locked in a dark
room and crawled
stealthily from
comer to comer,
until some false
step made one oi
them the target
for bullet or
blade.
Life is a duel
in the dark with
disease. One false step, one mistake,
and the attack conies swift and sudden.
The mistake which commonly opens the
way for an attack by disease is neglect
of the symptoms of stomach trouble.
When eating is followed "by undue full
ness, belchitigs, sour or bitter risings,
etc., disease is attacking the stomach.
The best way to frustrate such an at
tack is to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. It cures diserses of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, and makes the body
strong and healthy.
"I irai tuflering very much with my head and
stomach," write Sirs. W. C. Gill, of Weldon,
Shelby Co., Ala., "head was to diziy wheu I
would raiae up in bed would fall right back.
Could eat but very little, iu fact scarcely any
thing, there seemed to be a heavy weight iu my
stomach so I could not rest: I had to belch very
often and would vomit up nearly everything I
ate. I was iu a bad condition. X took lour bot
tles of Dr. llerce's Golden Medical Discovery
and five of his Favorite Prescription 1 and am
now well and hearty. I feel like a new woman
and give Dr. Pierce's medicines credit for tt all.
I had taken medicine from physicians without
any benefit as I could see."

Adviser is sent free on receipt of stamps
