other conditions for Irrigating large
tracts of valuable land are favorable.
In hopes of securing consideration of
this feasible system of Irrigation, re
liable statistics of the most vital na
ture are to be collected. Farmers re
ceiving one of the lists of questions
are urged to answer fully and return
promptly tothe secretary of the Coen
merclal Association In this city. The
government is anxious for such in
formation, and It can only come from
actual Irrigators.
AX ESTIMATE OP NICHOLAS.
Clyde Pennington, a former Uma
tilla county boy, now sheriff of Union
eamnty, Is doing something In the way
T enforcing the laws, that all the
aamblned city councils, mayors, con
stables and prosecuting attorneys of
Vaton county failed to do before. He
aaas- quietly, but firmly closed gam
Ming and enforced Sunday closing of
saloons, and Is not making any cam
paign bluster about it, either. He
ttotnid the law on the statutes of Ore
ajon and decided that It meant what
tt said and began its enforcement. The
malt is that there is not very much
prohibition talk in Union county.
An aged tramp, not able to walk
any further and unfit for work,
hanged himself near Halsey, Ore., the
ther day, as a speedy and certain
way out of a bad mess. Such a hap
pening no longer stirs even a tem
porary ruffle In the money-getting
program of today. If anybody stop
ped long enough to bury him decent

Me, it was the coroner, who was paid
tor the task, and even he dispatched
the Job with the greatest possible
aste. Selfishness, supreme, domln
aung, maa ana unmindful of every
thing else, rules the world today. The
lliier sensibilities are deadened. In a
saajority of minds, and only the mer
cenary and debasing sentiments are
rtrve. The great world lay all
strand this man. He was one of the
Weat family, one of the wheels of
"man activity; yet the selfishness
at his brothers and the Injustice of
Utilized laws, denied a spot of earth
an which he could lie down to rest In
fence and honor.
Active work of collecting the Uma
tilla county exhibit for the Lewis and
dirk fair Is now in progress. The
ammendable public spirit of the
aunty court in this matter, and the
active co-operation of the Commer
cial association, has assured a first

In an article contributed to the
November number of the Century
Magazine, Andrew D. White, minister
plenipotentiary of this country to St.
Petersburg from 1892 to 1894, de
livers himself of a scathing arraign
ment of Russian bureaucratic gov
ernment -and the weak and vacillat
ing Czar at its head.
After pnssing in review the several
features of reactionary policy that
characterize the despotism of the
Czar's ministers, Mr. White fixes
upon the oppression o( Finland as
the most terrible example of the
power of autocratic rule, and charges
Nicholas himself with the responsi
bility for the outrage.
The policy of the ruling nobles In
the realm, so forcefully exemplified
by the ruthless treading down of the
liberties of Russia's most progressive
people, is due to an absolute lndl Ter
ence to, even antagonism agaiast, all
Influence of enlightened government,
us White shows; but in the case of
Nicholas this medievalism, set with
equal stubbornness In his character,
Is strengthened by an utter Indiffer
ence to the needs of his people, a
stolid ignorance of all conditions af
fected by his rule. "He knows noth
ing of his empire or of his people,"
writes White. "He never goes out of
his house If he can help It."
In the light of this intimate esti
mate of Nicholas' character, It is now
easier to understand why Gen. Stoes-
sel is ordered to throw away every
life In Port Arthur before surrender
ing; why General Kutopatkln receives
Imperative orders to advance against
a superior foe at the beginning of a
hard Manchurlnn winter; why the
pitiably Inadequate Baltic fleet Is
sent blundering to the east. Can
Russia achieve any measure of her
destiny under the hand of this big
oted Incompetent?
On March 3, 1897, when there was
no steel trust, American steel rails
were selling in this market for $18
to 20 a ton. Foreigners can still get
them for that, but Americans have
to pay 128 an increase of from 40
to 65 per cent. The trust has main
tained the J28 rate for home cus
tomers without variation since it
was organized, representing a net in
crease of profits of over 70,q00,0O0
above a normal amount for that time.
Iron miners and steel mill operators
are working for less wages today
thin in 1897, the cost of manufactur
ing rails has decreased because of
Improved machinery, yet the trust
has raised the price one-half. The
companies using steel rails must
charge more for freight rates and
passenger fares In order to. pay the
exactions of the steel trust, so the ul
timate burden falls on the common
people who pay all bills at the last.
NIGHT.
Come, Night, upon thy raven wings
Plumed with their rich Imaginings,
To fill my dreams and charm away
The din and clamor of the day.
Fling thy deep shadow over me
Till by thy weird necromancy
Thou hast dissolved this solid care
And made it shapeless with the air.
Come like some Bteallng shadow,
flung
From leafy branches overhung
lu this oasis of the day
Where for a little while I stray.
Come with thy cup of dreams and be
An angel ministering to me,
As one who, weak from battling lies,
Unconquered, but too worn to rise.
The warrior. Dny, has harried me,
A foeman pitiless Is he,
Vet vanquished when, with pitying
eye
And palm of peace thou contest nigh.
Come with thy velvet darkness. Night.
Thy cloak of mall so soft and light
Yet turning every missile sent
From Care, us falls an arrow spent.
Come with thy wealth of twinkling
gems
Of dreams, and on diadems
Like jewels set In my bended knee
Let me full down and worship thee.
Come, Night, upon thy raven wings,
Plumed with their rich Imaginings,
And through the gathered darkness,
keep
The vigil of thy sister, Sleep.

THK GAIT HHOW8 THE TEMPER.
The woman who Jerks her head
as she walks is not uncommon. nrt
on close acquaintance you will find
that she Is given to fickleness. She
trifles a little too much with love, and
Is Just the woman to miss a good hus
band and be sorry afterward.
The quiet man will never be happy
with the woman who digs her heels
Into the pavement and scurries along
as If she were running a race. She
Is business-like and most likely the
woman to succeed in trade affairs,
but her manner Is one of those simple
things that worry the quiet man to
death.
The girl who cannot walk without
"kipping is a very cheerful girl, and
enjoys life with much the same gusto
as the girl with an elastic step, who
tips onto her toes at every stride.
But perhaps the girl we like most Is
the girl with the brisk, musical walk,
who loves to peep for a moment Into
shop window and then walk briskly
on, and who goes through life with
the fixed resolve of getting the most
pleasure out of everything Chicago
American.
ROOT NOW OWNS HIS TREE.
Ellhu Root was born in Cabinet
Hall, one of the buildings of Hamil
ton college, New York, where his
father. Oren Root, was a professor.
In his boyhood years, says the No
vember 8uccess, the two used to take
long walks together, and time and
again on their homeward way it was
under a splendid hemlock on Klrk
land farm that they would rest The
hilltop commanded a magnificent
view of the Oriskany valley, across
to the Adirondack to the north, and
often the elder of the pedestrians
would say, as they started on again:
1 wish I owned that tree."
In the years since there have been
many changes at Hamilton and in
the country about, but the old hem
lock has remained untouched and
the other day Ellhu Root bought
Kirkland farm and the tree which,
he declares, has long been a land
mark In his Ufa.
ANALYSIS OF AVAIL
No code of morals pretends that
any military army, battlefield, or
campaign, has ever shifted the needle
In the balance between the right
cause and the wrong, between Justice
and fraud, between truth and the He
by the shadow of a hair.
No political economy has under
taken to Justify a custom which costs
a warring nation millions of treasure
it month, which tears the flesh of Its
citizens to pieces and makes twice as
many mourners in homes as there are
corpses on the field, bringing no fruit
or grain out of the ground. And
further:
"For the actual testimony of what
war Is we might very well look to the
great soldiers themselves; not alone
to preachers, or poets, or moralists,
or political partisans, or orators, or
story tellers, or even historians but
to generals and commanders of ar
mies, men Of calm and guarded
speech, who have been scarred and
crippled, and have fought with cour
age to the last and have won the
highest earthly titles.
"No witnesses to the horrors of
warfare have been plainer or more
positive than these. Decorate the
monster, they tell you, as you will,
go from the shouts and banners, the
triumphs and processions of the Jubi
lee to the battlefield; lift the veil
and look underneath. There are
miseries and cruelties, agonies and
outrages, rapine and lust, mourning
and desolation. These are warfare,
not as It is painted, but as It Is."
Bishop Huntington In The Craftsman

THK TWO ANDREW CARNEGIES.
There are two Andrew Camegles,
It appears, as well as two Theodore
Roosevelts.
One Andrew Carnegie hates war,
deplores mllltarism.endows educa
tional Institutions, builds libraries,
erects halls of peace, believes in a
wise revision of the tariff, loves Gra
ver Cleveland and respects Judge
Parker.
The other Andrew Carnegie Is a
hardened protectionist and an Incor
rigible republican who believes the
tariff should be revised only by its
"friends," is supporting Theodore
Roosevelt for president and praying
that John Hay will continue to sit on
the safety-valve.
The first Andrew Carnegie would
be a good democrat if the second
Andrew Carnegie would let him; but
the second Andrew Carnegie owns all
the . common stock and does all the
voting New York World.
