Japanese irony was much like uni versal irony when the mikado's min ister at Paris laughed at the world's new appreciation of Japan. "We have for many generations sent to Europe exquisite lacquer work, delicately carved figures, beautiful embroidery, and many other commodities which showed how artistic we are: but the Europeans described us as 'uncivil ized.' We have recently killed some 70.000 Russians, and every European nation is wondering at the high con dition of civilization which we have attained." Yet the world cares for the finer side of life enough to be wondering regretfully now whether Japan will not lose it In her material expansion. Nor Is mere killing the only thing we admire in the history of this war. Mere courage Is some thing, patriotism Is something; the subordination of men to laws outside themselves Is recognized as power and elevation. The chairman of our com- This will get quick I mlttee on military affairs. In the house of representatives. Is quoted as saying that It will never be possible for us to compete with the Japanese In military efficiency, on account of expense and the unwillingness of our soldiers to obey. The cost side is pure nonsense. If, in the war with Spain, we lost 355 men throngn the enemy and 3862 from disease, it would ob viously save money. If It is possible, to keep a smaller army in a state of Japanese effectiveness. The death rate in Manchuria from disease Is be low the ordinary death rate In times durance that this ilog-ln-the-manger j ()f peace.

Business Through Publicity and the Doctor Who Does the Same. A RUSE OF THE SPIES. American spies in the revolution ary war, routed a whole British army on one occasion, by a clever ruse. Capturing a half-wilted British boy, they stripped him naked and forced him to run wildly into the officers quarters of the British army, shout ing, "The Americans are coming; the Americans are coming!" and when asked where they were and how many there w ere of them, he wonder ingly pointed to the leaves of the trees overhead. Taking a hint at this suggestion of an enormous army, the British pull ed up their camp and fled, leaving a large afnount of valuable plunder be hind, which was immediately cap tured hy the spies wrho had watched the procedure from a nearby hiding place.

The Oregonlan h heard a cry ecrecy. sobriety and sanitation ' I have won most of the battles for the Jr. pa.

By these rules of war, no energy has been wasted. Every movement has counted something; every nerve fulfilled Its highest function and every mind has produced Its best strategy. Its best cunning to hurl against the dissipated Russian officers and the Illy-kept Russian soldiery. The iiaker City Democrat at last admits the truth of the assertions of the East Oregonlan that the "wild cat" mining companies are a detri ment to the state, lu the following wail concerning ihese migratory grafters: The depression in quartz the finest line of Roods in the world mining in the Karrn Oregon gold ! fields that has been painfully ap- j parent for the past year. Is the natur-j against the referendum coming from ai r(.Hult of wild-cat promoters and The most peculiar thing in life is human nature and its contradictions. Whnt is right for one man or woman to do is quite wrong for another. Ask those who approve the one and con demn the other why and they will not be able to give a reasonable answer. It is nil right for one man, for instance, to advertise his business, but it is equally wrong for another man to do so. It is all riht for the merchant to inform the public that he has some $1 silks which he is selling for tH cents and a package of toothpicks thrown in, but let a doctor advertise that he has a particular remedy for a particular form of trouble and see what a howl will go up from the other doctors. And yet all doctors advertise when they get a chance. The only difference between doctors in this matter is that some of them pay for their advertise ments and the others do not. But in both cases the value of the advertising is recognized. One of the greatest advertisers in this country is Dr. Knv V. Pierce, of Buf falo, N. Y., head of the famous World's Dispensary Medical Association, which manufacture those widelv and favor ably known remedies, the Favorite Prescription" and the "Golden Medical Discovery." Dr. I'iercej like other men who have dealings with the public, knows that the onlv wav to sell ponds is to let the people know that you have them to sell. A merchant might have and nt the right prices, but if he did not let the people know about them those goods would stay right on his shelves. And it is so with the patent men n ine business. I nc proprietor must Yamhill county, and Is now wildly pointing to the, leaves of the trees, In the vain endeavor to make the voters believe that there Is a wonderful anti referendum sentiment throughout the entire state. If the people become scared, as did the British officers, at this ruse of the spies, and run away, the referen ' dum will be killed and then these waiting spies will come in and take charge of the state once more, and the people will have no recourse by which to hold the spies and their horde of sap-suckers In check. The great outcry against the refer endum, coming from the Oregonlan, is not a true index to public senti ment. It is a naked boy's voice, as he shiveringly points to the Imaginary leaves In the political trees, and tries to scare the people of Oregon Into forsaking their own priceless political privilege, that the!-? rights may be seized by the political tricksters who are directing this imbecile boy. Investigate this ruse before you get scared and run away leaving the ref erendum exposed to the thrusts of the politicians. others of the Balliet stripe. Since the latter was put in Jail by the gov ernment It was thought such methods is his were effectually stamped out, but It seems that there Is a germ left that unless thoroughly fumigated may grow. The experience of the people in the past should open their eyes to the future and If they ever hope to see the mining Industry of Baker coun ty advance as merit and legitimate promotion would warrant, they must block the way of the mining piira slte and fraudulent user of the United States malls. WITH INTEREST COMPOUNDED. WELCOME THE RAILROAD WAR. A railroad war Is about the only armed combat which helps the com mon people. As long as there Is peace In all the railroad camps, there Is danger of combination against the common victim, the people. ltf Is hoped that the railroads en gage . in a fierce and lasting fight for the new territory on the Pacific Coast. In this way, competing lines will be driven to the fartherest fron tiers and competing rates will be es tablished early In the settlement of the new districts. It Is hoped that not only the O. R. We hear much talk about the mon ey cost of wars, past and present. And that Is Indeed a consideration, a most convenient and Impressive measure of the penalties for Indul gence In the blood-madness. But it Is by no means the largest item in the bill; It is a distanced second to another item. That item Is character cost. To re move the average man from the or derly and restrained routine of peace ful occupation and home Influence Is to release the ancient beast. Poets do not tell the story, historians hide it, orators lie about It, and even the novelists loin In the miserable de tention. But the character cost of war is frightful. And the poison snreads from him who was perme ated by It in the camps and fields of "glory" to his associates, to his chil dren and children's children. "The wages of sin Is death" In part. But sometimes It seems that the larger part of those wages Is tainted and shriveled and perverted life. And of that part Is the chief penalty for violation of the unquali fied mandate: "Thou shalt not kill." Saturday Evening Post. let the people know that he has a remedy which will accomplish certnin results, that he is prepared to give them care ful and scientiiic treatment by mail and the terms on which he will do so. Then those who need his services will go to him. They can't be reached any other way. Then why condemn the man who advertises a cure any more than the man who advertises a necktie? But there is another point about this business of advertising. Fake adver tisements may carry a business for a time but not lor long. Lincoln used to say that yon could not fool all the people all the time. That has been nroved manv times. A business which. like Dr. Pierce's, has etood the test of nearly 40 years, which has borne the brunt of many an attack directed by ignorance or malice, could not have reached its present mammoth pro portions on misrepresentations or lake advertisements. There must be some thing more than that as its foundation. There must be honor and honesty in dealing with the public ; else there will be failure. The Pierce Remedies were among those which a certain prominent jour nal recently charged not to he what thev were "advertised to be.
