When tho children of queens are born with the stamp of roy alty upon them; when the in 1 ne monopolist can show us his title deeds duly signed by Almighty Rod; when the nure quitted tollers are born with out stomachs, anil the luxuri ous and the Idle are born with out hands then we may know that Jefferson was wrong in asserting tlint men are born with an equal right to political justice and with an equal right to determine the form of governments under which they must live and work. The child of Astor comes Into the world as naked as tho waif of Five Points. Laud monopoly maites the dif ference. Nature does not starve' one and gorge another. Human law does that.

Russia has not yet tasted of the unalty that is due her for her wan Rim oppression of the weak and poor. The murder of one of her tyrants not a drop In tho bucket, compared t the crimes that these tyrants have (committed against humanity. It may be that one should not ifprak the honest thoughts under aressuro of excitement of the assassi nation of Plehve. Russian minister of war, hut the long history of crime. Sigotry and oppression wilfully, skll fldly and fiendishly practiced by the Htasslan government deserves little arerey. Plehve's last official act was to avpprcss four .lewlsh newspapers In SL. Pi'tersburg. throwing 1200 people sm the charity of the Russian public, urtilch means for those Jews, starva tion and death by slow processes of uirrture. This is only one of tho numberless utrtH ot oppression anti cruelty and it :a little- wonder that his blood Is filled In this manner. In view of the ratccnt cruelties to .lows, Polanders maf Finns, the wonder Is that not j ajron? Russian ofi.cials have passed I at by the dynamite route. Yn the midst of a civilized and OQiristianlzed age Russia persists in atrstctlsing mfdiaovul barbarities, en tiurcing barbaric laws tliat were actu- arBy. formulated about the time the eiotns crossed the uannbe with an urje on Rome and in denying her peo rtfe the simplest benefits of the great (tteiuge of progress that sweeps about tikaa. She is paying the penalty lor her crraclty and Ignorance. She may ex iftet revolt after revolt and murder raBer murder, because she is sowing autftls that blossom surely into these Sunns of disorder. Sier subjects are thinking humans, aad would enjoy and conduct a civ Utieed form of government, If sho waald permit them. I) lit her op Bcntssion, tyranny and bigotry aro waking brutes and monsters of them. SCsn-y people is a mirror of the gov ernment utider which they live. Such lb. the case In the United States, and taueh Is truo of Russn . The American people typify the hi&best development of government under the sun and hero tho brutal Isalincts that woultl murder and do titroy aro tho exception and not the mlc.

Tho government has paid for the ranal rights, appointed a commission and Is now preparing for the work of construction of the cnnal. nil of which would bo continued with Just as much vigor. Just as much ability, just as much honesty. Just as much fidel ity to duty by a democratic adminis tration as by Mr. Roosevelt. His school boy oratory and .egotistical as sumptions of superior ability and honesty are out of place in the office of president. When he speaks as president of the United States and representative of SO.000,000 people, ho Is not speaking as a magazine writer I nor a ward politician. Ascertain dig- j nlty and consideration should accom- ' pany the public utterances of the president, no mutter how bitter his partlsanlsm or how warm his zeal. i Such heated expressions from offic ials only Induce more criticism of them and a consequent loss of re spect for them among all classes of people. The largest pensions lu the United States aro drawn by women, 24 of whom receive In the aggregato more than Is paid to ii30 veterans of the $ti month class. Mrs. Garfield and Sirs. McKinley receive $5000 a year each. Mrs. Philip H. Sheridan re ceives $2500. wlille tho pensions uf ' .Mrs. Logan, Mrs. McClellan and Jlr.v Frank Illnlr aro each $2000 Eighteen widows of generals anti admirals rc celvo $1200 a year, six $U0 and 200 have pensions of $600 each. The total received by 200 widows amounts to S1C5.000, equal to the amount recelv. ed by 229S veterans at 20 cents a day. The native common sense hidden away in every man's nature comes to the surface at times, despite ills cal loused dishonesty. The excellent editorial on gambling, us a vice, In yesterday's Oregonian was worthy of a thinker and conscientious scholar, and In reading It one almost lorgets the Oregonlan's campaign balder dash. HUNGRY FOR NtWSPAPERS. Rev. V. E. Smith, a Methodist mis sionary In China, in a letter says- I "One uf the blessings of Canadian life is tne oany newspaper, imagine rue province of Sz Chuan. West China, with a population of over sixty mil lions, nnd not one newspaper printed within Its borders. The Western Chinese must depend for tho current local nows on the tea shops, In which everybody assembles to gossip and discuss tho leading sub jects of the lay In 1301, lu addition to the religious publications, we In troduced several dally newspapers, printed in Shanghai. These wo put on file in our public reading rooms, so that everybody had access to them. They developed a taste for newspaper reading, and we soon had several . subscribers, During the year several Influential men and sons of officials waited on me, requesting me to take the .editor ship of a dally or semi-weekly paper. imv nirp,,l tn hpnr nil fiminplrll ro. sponslblllty, and when I pleaded lack of time, offered to attend to all editor ials, correspondence, etc. In answer to the question, why give me the honorable title of editor, with none of the responsibilities?' they replied: 'we are not permitted by our government to give expression to our ideas through tho press, but behind your name wo would have perfect free dom."

In 18S9 only 200 routes wero in operation. At tho closo of tho present fiscal year there will be over 25,000, routes running, bringing a dally mall service to more than 12,500,000 pcoplo residing In rural districts. The appropriation for this servlco during tho noxt year Is $20, 81C.C0O. It Is Impossible to estimate the edu cational benefits that will accrue from this magnificent system which, us an aid to the higher civilization will out rank any agency now in operation for tho betterment nnd the uplifting of tho human race. While primarily for the benefit of farmers, It really confers benefits upon every man, woman and child In tho Union, and no money was over so well spent as that sot aside for tho extension and Improvement of this great agent for the extension of Intlllgencu and quick communication among the masses, The stool trust has Just doelured a quarterly dividend of l?i per cent, The net earnings of tho trust for the quarter Just passed was $19,490,725. MORTIS DIGNITAS. Hero lies a common man, his horny hands, Crossed meekly as a maid's upon his breast. Show murks of toll, and by bis general ilr.ess You judge him to have been an iirtlsau. Doubtless, could all his life he writ ten out, The story would not thrill nor start a tear: He worked, laughed, loved and Butter ed In his time. And now rests peacefully, with up turned face 1 Whose look belles all struggle lu the past. I A homely tale: yet trust mo. 1 have seen The greatest of the earth go stalely by I While shouting multitudes beset the J wny. With less of awe. The gap between a king And me, a nameless gazer in the crowd, Seems not so wide as that which stretches now Iletwlxt us two. this dead one and my , s.elf, , Untitled, dumb and deedlcss, yet he is Transllgured by a touch from out tin skies 1 Until he wears, with nil-unconscious ' grace, The strange and sudden dignity of death Richard E.

Two of the horses burned were stallions valued nt $2000 each A Chinese mercantile estab lishment and other buildings were also burned. A trolley representing the latest i type of modern car building embodies I the seml-convcrtlble Idea, that Is. the windows, when not m use disappear I in receptacles In tho roof. 1 Sleeplessness I Is akin to insanity Many a woman re alizes this as she lies awake hour by hour, peopling l r. e untknes with phantoms, start ing at the creak ing of the bed or the rustle of the bedclothes. Such symptoms in general point to disease of the delicate womanly organs, ard a constant dram of tin. vital and nervous foices This condition cannot be over come by sleepiup powders. Th, diseased emidi tiou must be cured before the consequences of disease are ic moved.
