That the great God meant It for. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. REVOLT AT CAPITALISM. The sentiment .expressed at Wino na Lake, Wis., by the German preach er, Steizle, at a Bible conference, Is worthy of more than passing thought. This preacher said that unless the rampant spirit of selfishness as ex hibited In modern capitalistic prac tices, were not checked, that it would drive the great conservative middle classes In America to the extreme of socialism. This seems a terrible tliougt to some; it seems to be a dangerous and impossible extreme. But more than one thinking man has said the same thing In the last two or three years In America. In defense of the present system, they say It would stultify the race to check or destroy the spirit of Indi vidualism. That progress would stop If the stimulus of personal gain wero removed. Is .humanity, then, so depraved that it will only do good for pay? Will it only make progress for mercenary gain? Does the boasted spirit of in dividualism stand no higher than the giant levying tribute from the child? The tendency that must bo checked is selfishness and not Individualism. Individual effort does not include the control of congresses and leglslatiir.es by which to restrict the liberties of the people; It does not contemplate the pollution of public officials and the degredatlon of public office for purposes of privato pilfering. Tills is the phase of capitalism that must bo checked. The people will re volt at the extreme corruption In public places, by which so much ad vantage Is given to the powerful. Nobody objects to Industry', on Its merit, but millions do object to indus try thriving under purchased laws and favoritism. These aro tho curses that are turning thinking men away from present political practices. If there is not a chanco to mako millions through purchased United States senators, legislatures, con gresses and presidents, why do capi talists spend millions In gaining con trol of them? Why aro all truly educational feat ures of political campaigns cast aside, and the entire tight made a matter of the longest sack and tho heaviest grafting? This la not individualism. It is rank crime. Individualism Is that splendid po tency or genius which Invents, ovolvos and completes better and higher systems of Industrial and mental development. It Is a labor of love and utility combined. It Is individualism which Invents tho latest combined harvesters. It Is Individualism which bursts In bloom from tho brain of a Markham, an Ella Wheeler Wilcox or a Tolstoi. It Is as far removed from tho de grading selfishness of modern politics and government, as day Is from night, nnd needs no corrupt fertilization. same class nre now under construc tion, nnd in contemplation, and yet cities In tho Interior of tho United States nro denied federal assistance in improvements nnd necessities. Not half tho enterprising cities of 7000 to 10,000 people In tho United States aro supplied with a federal building for tlie postofflco. They must rent any quarters that happen to bo available As far as feeling tho presenco and en Joying tli.0 assistance of tho govern1 ment in civic progress is concerned, tho small cities might as well bo in the Arctic circle. Is It not tlmo to think something of peaceful progress and less of war? Tomorrow, Pendleton and Umatilla county people will bo dented the privilege of enjoying a hot Sunday In tho cool retreats of tho Umatilla res ervation. They must not fish nor roll on the grass nor leavo any civilized footprints on tho Indian's soli. A cus tom that has long been the chief source of pleasure and rest for tho people of this city must cease. Tho reservation belongs to th,o Indians. Now it remains for the people to havo a word. If tho whites must not tres pass, neither must the slwashes. Only day before yesterday a party of 80 Umntlllas left for Welscr to fish In Snake river. Every day they break tho laws In this city by drinking booze and carrying it Into tho reser vation and this week it is sMd fresh oiks' teeth havo been offer.ed for sale by the Indians in Pendleton. Tho balance of violations of law hangs heavily on tho Indians' side nnd If the white man must toe tho mark in the strict letter of tho law, as to picnick ing on the reservation, he should in sist on a like rectitudo on the part of the red man. NO REST IN DEATH. i A. T. Stewart, tho great dry goods man, built a cathedral at Garden City, Long Islnnd. Thoro Is a crypt In tho cathedral built to contain his body, and there that body or whut Is sup posed to bo tho body now rests be sldo that of his wife, who died aftor him. As overybody knows, A. T. Stew art's body jas stolon, nnd after much excitement nnd discussion an ulloged A. T. Stewart body was put in tho crypt. It wns probably not tho real body at all that real body having been burned In fear by tho body-snatchers. Mrs. A. T. Stewart's body lies in tho crypt something supposed to bo tho body of A. T. Stowart lies beside her. Night and day, nil through ovory year, two men alternately watch the grave to see that tho A. T. Stewart body Is not stolon again. It Is curious to think of tho Scotch dry goods man's body or that of some substitute, one as good as an othercrumbling away In that crypt, whllo two men mount guard over it night and day, ns they havo done through long years past. San Fran cisco Examiner. ETHICS OF THE CARTOONIST. The electric road craze has struck Eastern Oregon hard. Since the belt line for Grand Ronde valloy was pro posed, a line from La Grande to Bak er City, and one across tho Blue .Mountains into Wallowa county have been started. The power is In exis tence, running to waste, necessary to operate these lines, but the present flurry is for tho purpose of obtaining control of all available franchises. Anent tho political cartoon which appeared in tho Now 'York Mail a short time ago, and has been adopted as a poster by the republican cam paign committee, nn exchange calls attention to the fact that the artist who sketched It, Homer Davenport, Just four years ago came Into noto riety through a series of cartoons that wero peculiarly offensive to tho friends of Mr. McKinlpy nnd Mr. Hoosovelt. This raises the query, whether it is wise for political cartoonists to affix their signatures to their work. An editorial writer or a reporter is at the most but an amanuensis. If ho wrltp contrary to tho policy of his pa per, tho man at the desk uses ills blue pencil mercilessly. In no caso Is his name connected with tho arti cle, nor is ho in any sense responsi ble for It (.except nt law in caso of criminal libel). It is different with the cartoonist. He insists that tho work Is all his own; the creation of his own brain, and usually he Is very proud of it.

J "A short time aao I found my corf dltloit very serious. I had headaches, pains In the back, and frequent dizzy spells which strew worse every month. I tried two remedies before Peruna, and was discouraged when 1 took the first dose, but my courage soon returned. In less than two months my health was restored." Mrs. M. Drlcknen Tho reason of to many failures to cure cases slmllnr to tho above Is the fact that dlsoaaca peculiar to the femalo sox are not commonly FEMALE TROUBLE NOT RECOGNIZED AS CATARRH. It goes without saying that when a man affixes ills name to any article, li I'tvna ffirtli rim lwitwiut iivtrroautrm Then when the truly productive age I ,)f ,ls soul.

Ho first camu to this country in 1878 as sec retary to the legation and subse quently held numerous important posts nt homo and In Europe. He speaks and understands English per fectlywhen he wishes to do so. Should an embarrassing question be asked, however, he falls back on broken English. Tho man is the per sonification of business. Ho rises with the sun and works without haste, without heat, but in that steady relentless fashion and along lines of such careful organization that he turns out more of the finished prod uct than tho average two of his staff. VALUABLE TOADS. employed on a democratic paper to day may servo for a republican paper tomorrow. By holding up ono party to reproach now, and another party then, tho cartoonist lays himself Ma lik' to tho implication of selling his opinions aud convictions to tho high est bidder.

Ancient Deed for Road Land, A deed that calls for the payment of $10,009,030 in settlement, nnd that was executed April 15, 1870, has just reached Benton county to be placed on record.

In a recent interview Lord Kelvin Is roportcd to havo oxprcssed himself as being decidedly of tho opinion that tho sourco of energy of th.o heat emit ted by radium Is not In tho elomont Itself. Ho remarked: "It seems to bo absolutely certain that if emissions of h.eat at tho rato of SO calories per grain por hour found by Curio at or dinary tcmporaturo, or oven at tho lower rato of 38, found by Dowar and Curio from a specimen of radium at tho temperature of liquid oxygon, can go on month after month, energy must somehow bo supplied from without," Baltimore American. 'Love lichtend labor," the sav ing runs, and in a sense it is true. But even love cannot lighten labor or make it easy for the woman who is in constant suffering from inflamma tion,, bearing-down pains or other womanly dis eases. The one thing that cm make work easy for women is sound health, anil Dr. Pierce's Favorite Proscription is the tbiiii; that will give sound health to sick women. Dr. Pierce has so much faith in his " Prescription " that he offers to pay $500 in legal money of the United States for any case of Leu corrliea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of Womb which he cannot cure. All he asks is a fair and reasonable trial of his means of cure, "I Buffered from female weakness for fiv months," writes Mia Ifclle Heiirlck, of Nye.
