Many and Impressive ure the lessons to be learned anew from the St. Petersburg massacre. We learn that the mind Is the seat of slavery. It Is not the brutal Cos sacks who have held the Russian peo ple In subjection. Ignorance and in ertia are the enslavers of mankind. Let the people lose faith In their ac customed rulers; let them once desire liberty: let them awake to u realis ation of their rlghtB and their priva tions, and the beginning of the end is at hand. "It Is not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit." Thought rules the world. The soul Is muBter. The solitary cry for liberty may be gon had knocked down the white robed saint, the saloon, and were trampling upon his throat with their hob-nulled shoes. The poor. Innocent, persecuted, lamb-like saloons! It is u cutting, killing, stinging disgrace ti Intimate want freedom they will have It. It Is significant that the priesthood should huve furnished the leader for this Russian uprising. The church is often charged with Infidelity to hu manity. As Zangwlll says. It tends eve, In tiamima r ho tnmh rtt Ihn mil that they .have raised J25.000 In Ore- !of , But , Bratlfvln. ,0 recall the Instances to the contrary, when liberty has been wedded to re ligion and men have raised within gon to secure the repeal of the local option law! They raised only S.3. 000! The temperance pirates never do tell the truth! And to charge that the saloons ure maintaining a lobby at Salem to de feat the sovereign will of the people! Why. nobody else In the world loves the people as do the saloons! It Is a humiliating, embarrassing mid un gollant fling at the saintly suloons to Insinuate that a lobby is maintained at Salem. The entire legislature Is "passed" to Portland every Friday evening, where all the jobs ure put up and the next week's work Is plan ned. There Is where the saloon lob- the church the banner of the free. The slaves of the West Indies had a champion In Las Casus. The Ameri can negroes had their Lovejoy, even as the Russian peasants have their Gopnn. This is at it should be. Who more than the priest should resent the oppression which crushes the soul out of men ? Without freedom there can be no moral or spiritual health. That should ever be the flint concern of religion, us Indeed It Is of true religion. These outbursts of passion, so fear ful In their possibilities to the world, arc sad reminders of what might be. were we once to put our faith In that by "shines" not at Salem, ns falsel ; gospel of love preached so long ugo. charged!

The county surveyor who cati pass the necessary examination to hold that position now, must be a practi cal engineer, with a knowledge of road and grade construction, and ut 'least in every county there should be a system of uniform road making, j suited to the particular character of 1 country, through which the roads pass. Permanent culverts and bridges, proper drainage, proper grade slope -lo shed off the accumulating water . and proper roadbed to wear more than one summer, are the require ments of good country roads, and until the state adopts a general sys tem and begins to put experts in charge of the work, the country rouds will remain In the main. Impassable In bad weather. It is maid of the old toll road com panies across the Blue mountains, that they charged the traveling pub lic for passing over the road, and made the public repair the roads, be side. Many a stage ' driver and freighter can testify to opening a road before he could pass. As It to now, the county takes the tax from the cltlsen, makes him work the road as a duty to the county, and then If he Uvea In a remote corner of the county he must almost build a private road to reach hl home, with a decent load. Uniformity and com mon sense are needed In road build ing, and the Smith bill offers both. Experts who have looked Into the road making; possibilities In Oregon say that the soil Is especially adapted to permanent road making. There is no part of the difficulties to be contended with here, that were met and conquered in the construction of the old Cumberland road in Virginia, Tennessee and Pennsylvania, a coun try boulevard over 201) miles long, and so well constructed that the roadbed is today as firm and unyield ing us when It was built. Even Russia Is civilized, in the art of road making, bar country roads being veritable boulevards, permeat ing every remote part of the empire. Oregon should not criticise the czar's luu a:i army of crusaders upon the legislature. It is a fact that the liquor Interests have not had a single lob h!ft or representative at Salem.

In a recent interview with Mrs. Lily Langtrr, ahe very wisely said : "The fact that I believe in the superior force of mind over matter does not blind sae to toe truth tost the foundation of every succeaaful life is good health; that tbe key atone to physical beauty is perfect physical health. "A alck woman eatmat be a beautiful woman, nor can she be anything but what we Iingluh call a poor-apirited woman. "To a great extent a woman's beauty is measured by her vitality by her health. "Work, Sunshine. Exercise, Water and Soap. Plain, Nourishing Food, Lots of Freah Air, and a Uappy, Contented Spirit there, as you say, 'honest and true.' is my working rule for youth, youthful spirits and youthful look." . One great secret of youth and beauty for tbe young woman or the mother is the proper understanding of her womanly ays tem and well-being. Everv woman, young or old.nhontd know herself 'and her phys ical make-up.
