KIIJ, Olt (HIE THE CAY USES. It is useless for Vmatilla county to fightv the mange as , long as the government runs a wide open hatch ery of mange lice on the Umatilla reesrvation. The Indian ponies affeoted with 'mange should ether be killed or cur ed. Umatilla eouutv has no jurisdic tion In the matter, on the reservation, and as lonj? as the disease is harbor ed there it . Is Impossible to cleanse the outside districts, because the In dian ponies are not confined to the reservation, but can be found scratch ing on every fence and telephone pole in the county, at different times. Umatilla county has the reputa tion of being a hotbed of the mange and several costly and troublesome cases of dipping cattle have been Im posed upon the county, solely because the mange existed on the reservation .and cattle had been exposed through this neglect of the government. Let us either kill ,or cure the mange-cursed cayuses. After the dis ease has been stamped out on the reservation It wll be easy to cleanse the county. PREMIUM ON" MONOPOLY. Many papers in the United States -that are strong for "protection to '-American "labor" are Just now loud In praise of the government's action 'against the General Paper company, us an illegal corporation In restraint of trade. The Ohio State Journal points out that If the government makes Its case It will force the dissolution of this particular company, but the chances are It will afford only tem porary relief from the exactions of the paper trust. It may not do even that. The fact Is that the paper trust, like many of the other great combina tions, Is intrenched behind the tariff. If the present pooling arrangement is broken up a gigantic corporation, including all the paper mills, or some other means of maintaining the mo nopoly will probably be worked out Print paper is madf trom spruce and the paper trust controls practically all the spruce timber lands In this country. With free trade In paper and pulp the great spruce forests of Canada would be available for American needs and competition would become ' possible. The tariff on paper Is not required to protect American labor against cheaper foreign labor. Long before the Oingley law the United States was the greatest pro ducer of print paper In the world. It will continue to be as long as the supply of spruce timber lasts. The tariff has simply put a premium on this monopoly as on many other mo nopolies. Parents are confronted with an ap palling condition In the wide open town, of Oregon, If they only realized It. The vampires and parasites in human form, the white shirt hoboes, who follow the profession of boost ing for games, "doping" and robbing drunken men and enticing boys Into dives and who Infest the wide open town are ever ready to lure the fal tering girl astray ever on the look out for some weak prey. In Baker City yesterday two fellows of this stripe were placed under bonds and in default of ball were placed In Jail for seducing two girls, one 14 and one IS years of age. Parents do not know what temptations, what perils surround " their daughters In these conditions. The officials and good citizens In general are directly respon sible for any. crimes of this kind that may be committed, for permitting this class of parasites to Infest the community. Money Is the modern god, it is true, but ail the money that can be piled up in bank vaults cannot pay for the ruined life of one child. It Is up to the community to guard Itself. Tally one for Pendleton. The streets will be macadamized. The city council has so decreed and now let every taxpayer co-operate with the officials in hurrying the .matter to completion this year, before the rainy season begins In October or No vember. By laying this kind of a finish upon the streets, they can be made durable and clean. It is within reach of everybody and there should be not a whisper of objection to the plan. The more ready co-operation with the council, the more quickly the work will be completed. Let everybody push. Very few men can live the double life and carry out the program to the finish, without a disastrous ending. It Is said that Hanker Blgelow, of Milwaukee, who 'has Just robbed his bank of a million and a half dollars, outwardly lived an exemplary life; he was a church member, a friend of young men, a temperate, religious, sincere, charitable man. and yet since last December he has studiously fal sified his books, gambled in wheat, stolen the money of the depositors, and led the most depraved life, se cretly, of any- man In Milwaukee. The Standard Oil trust got another severe Jolt when tbs supreme court of Montana decided thatthe 110,000, 000 Minnie Heuly mine belongs to August Heinze. thus putting a quietus on the claims of the Amalgamated Copper company, a djvanch of the Standard combine. Whatever the merits of the controversy the Amer ican people will not worry much over the defeat of the Rockefeller monop oly. Mr. Yerkes, formerly owner and manager of the Chicago Traction company, sees only disaster to Chi cago, in municipal ownership. "The outlook is dark. Indeed." says Mr. Yerkes In a sorrowful interview In London. .Sentiments like these from Mr. Yerkes are calculated to make the crowned heads of Kurope lie down on their palace floors and roll over with laughter. YT1ION SWALLOWS GOATS. A traveler who spent several years in Central Africa gives the following account of hls travels: "We were for the greater part of the time dependent on goats for our fresh milk supply. The goat kraal was made very strong, proof agiilnst Hons, leopaiMs . and other carnlvora, but a python enter ed between the poles though they were spaced three Inches apart one night, killed ull the goats In the com partment by strangling them, swal lowed two and was found gorged, sluggish and self-trapped within the kraal in the morning. "The swellings of his body where the two goats were prevented him from escaping between the palings, as he had come In. To look at the snake's small head and slender neck, it seemed impossible for him to swal low anything larger than a rat, but by dislocating his jaw and stretching his skin he accomplished the appar ently Impossible feat of gastronomy. The goats were cut out of him Intact by our boys, who evidently considered that premature burial In a python did not affect the edible qualities of the meat, as within half an hour it was all roasted and eaten." CONDEMNS CHICAGO ART. We spent a day In the art museum, of Chicago, seeing pictures, sculpture and plaster casts. I am no judge of art, but if It were my museum I would consign about two-thirds of the stuff on exhibition to the rubbish heap. But It passes for art, and thousands go and spend their time looking for It A thousand young men and women are studying art, as It Is called. They are drawing from life and still life, from dressed and nude subjects. We had a special permit to visit all the class rooms, and for the life of us cannot see much good In standing up a naked man or woman before a hundred young people for them to "draw at," and call It art. In all the hundreds of students I hardly saw one that was well-fed, or didn't have a strained, nervous and many of them a strenuous, "hunted" look on their faces. To my taste, I saw prettier oil paintings In the Auditorium hotel than In the art museum. But a man from the West don't know It all. E. Hofer, In Salem Journal. RUSSIAN LIQUOR MONOPOLY. American Consul Richard T. Gree ner of Vladivostok, sends the follow ing report on the Russian liquor traf fic to the department of commerce and labor: The St. Petersburg paper, Rooskia Vedomostl, In an article on the re sults of the government liquor mon opoly, states that this monopoly, con ceived und Introduced by the former minister of finance, S. J. Witte, rep resents, together with the reforms In the monetary currency, the most im portant measure of the last decade. At the introduction of the bill on'! liquor monopoly in the council of state. Mr. Wltte's speech contained the following statement: "Only by way of monopoly can the government derive the tax on alcohol larger rev enue than at present with the fewest Inconveniences and troubles; and ut the same time the monopoly offers the only restraint, In the Interest of morality and the peoples' health, from me aouse oi liquor consumption, so j me uiii nau iwo oojecis ill view to Increase the government revenues and to lessen the opportunities for drunk enness. With reference to the decrease of drunkenness, we can not state any thing reliable, for we still possess too little information on the matter, but with regard to the financial part of the reform the expectations have been fully realized. The preparatory work for the Introduction of the business, from 1893 to 1901, required an out lay of over $73,000,000; the income during this same period covered not only all these outlays, but also the running expenses, all the rebates of duty (over $17,000,000), the sums do nated to the temperance associations (about $6,000,000), and still left sur plus of $S50,000. The state control published the results of the monopoly business for 1901. The gross Income was $S1,700,000; the current busi ness expenses amounted to $62,600, 000, and the net profit was $19,200, 000. Besides, the excise on liquor yielded $108,800,000. The quantity of liquor sold from the government stores during 1901 was 133, 600, 000 gallons. Professor Hodsky, in the Peoples' Industries, quotes the following fig ures concerning the monopoly during the past five years: "In 1899 the government had 10. 234 open stores for retailing spiritu ous beverages. During the same year 9203 places were discovered where such liquors were secretly and Illicit ly sold. This is nearly as many as" the number of open government stoj-es. The flirures are impressive, and tend to make one lose faith In the moral potency of the government's liquor monopoly." At a conference of the agricultural committee of the district of Saratoff, the peasant members were asked to give their opinion, in detail, of the Influence of the liquor monopoly on j the lives of the villagers. Their unanimous declaration was as follows: to,.. 1 . . (a I The decrease of drunkenness Is not manifest: (b) since there are nn ! drinking saloons, the people who will drink get drunk openly In the streets: (c) the secret and Illegal sale of strong liquors is extending; (d) the rural communities have lost consid erable revenue which they formerly had from the licenses to saloon keep ers. -It. T. Greener, consul. Vladivo stok. Siberia. CATHOLIC l'OPl LATIOX. The Roman Catholic population of the United States and its dependencies is far larger than that of any other religious denomination. This fact is brought out by a comparison between the statistics in the Human Catholic directory for 11105. and those relat ing to other church bodies, which have been compiled by the Rev. II. K. Carroll. The whole number of Roman Oil!;- olics under the protection of ii:r L'niled States flag is 22,127,354. ?i these, 7.i5U.6!l!t are In the Philippine: ! 1,573,862 In Cuba, l.oou.Odu In l"o:t..i RIeo. ami .12 01)1) In thu Kan,li,.i iv. lands. It would obviously be mis leading to Include the Roman Catho lics of the dependencies in a consider ation of the comparative strength of the religious denominations In the United States. Eliminating them altogether, the Roman Catholics of the country still number 12,462,793, while the next largest church body, the Methodists, have 6,266,738 members. The Bap tists follow with 5,150,815. then come the Lutherans, with 1,789,766; the Presbyterians, with 1,697,697; the Episcopalians, with 807,922; the Con gregationalistB, with 667,951; the Uni tarians, with 71,000; the Scientists, with 66,022. THE CLASSIC WALK.. Imn't turn out your toes, If you wish to walk or dance In the only proper and classic way. as both ex plained and exhibited tod "y before the Physical Education association at Teacher's college. In a talk on "The Dancing Foot," Dr. Henry Ling Tay lor, professor of orthopedic surgery at the post-graduate medical school, explained why the weight-bearing foot always should extend straight and not to the side. "That the straight posture for the weight-bearing foot Is the natural one'might seem to be Indicated by the fact that It Is the posture always rep resented In Greek art. It Is an Inter esting fact that though soldiers have been trained for centuries to stand at attention with everted toes, they Im mediately reverted to the straight foot posture as soon as they go Into action., So athletes at the start or during exertion keep the straight foot posture." Chicago Record-Herald. WHO? The beef trust says, and It Is upheld by Secretary Garfield's recent report, that they have to fight sharp compe tition, do business on a close margin and make only an average of about 99 cents on every head of cattle slaugh tered. But there are a lot of by-pro- ducts which yield good returns and It is noticed that all the great packing firms have accumulated millions. Where did they get it if not out of the business'.' Evidently they have been making money hand over fist and this money came off of some body. Who? American Farmer. gAteCOFFEE Always the same. Not up then down. Not good today bad tomorrow.
