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

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 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

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

promotion would warrant, they must
block the way of the mining piira

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. But an
immediate libel suit for $itK),0tl0
brought hy Dr. Pierce led to a speedy
retraction ol the charge,
