The Word "Tariff."
The word tariff has an Interesting
origin. It Is derived from the Arable
ta 'rlfa, meaning uu Inventory of fees
payable on demand, and became cur
rent lu the following way: A certain
Moorish general, by name Tarlfa,
seized In the year 710 tipou a small
seaport some twenty miles from what
Is now Gibraltar aud the southernmost
town In Europe. Here he founded a
station for levying toll on all craft
trading In the neighborhood aud bo
stowed his name upon the place, after
the manner of Constantlne, Alexander
aud others. The word came eventual
ly to slgulfy a schedule of charges and
passed Into the French, Italian and
English.

EASTERN OREGON JUDGESHIP.
Question ns to Who Will Succeed Rob
ert Eukin.
The Salem Journal reviews the
Judgshlp of the Wullowa-Unlon coun
ty district ns follows :
The presence In the city of Hon.
Thomas H. Crawford, of Union coun
ty, gives an excellent opportunity for
the Salem wiseacres to talk politics.
Mr. Crawford says his visit to the cap
ital has no political significance, and
In fact he has two suits in the supreme
court this afternoon.
Yet It is well known that Judge
Crawford Is a receptive candidate, at
least, for the vacancy on the bench
that will occur when Judge Robert
Eakln, of the district composed of
Union and Wullowa counties, resigns.
Judge Eakln will take his place on
the supreme bench next January, tak
ing the position of Justice Thomas G.
Halley, und the appointment for the
district Judgeship will be In the hands
of Governor Chamberlain.
If Judge Crawford was the only
candldnte for this position, the work
of the governor would be easy, but
there are at least two other applicants.
One of them is Judge Frank 11. Wil
son, of Union, and another Is Judge
Ramsey, of La Grande. All three of
these gentlemen are excellent lawyers,
gnocj democrats and men who have
done signal service for their party.
Two years ago when the office of
district attorney wasr created for Union
and Wallowa counties, the appoint
ment was given to Clarence Crawford,
a son of Judge Tom Crawford. The
young man filled the place with credit
and ability, but wns not a candidate
for re-election. It Is argued by some
that this will lessen Judge Tom's
chances, ns the governor will hesitate
to give two appointments in one coun
ty to members of the same family.
People who keep their ears neaie.it
the soli say that Judge Ramsey's
chances are the best.

The bead day porter and the bead
night porter of a hotel, according to
the Sau Francisco Chronicle, became
Involved In a discussion on ages. The
head night porter coufessed to thirty
eight. "H'm! Say, I've got you beat ten
years," declared the heud day.
"You mean to tell me you're only
twenty-eight?" demanded the head
night.
"I should say, not I's Just fortj
elght," explained the head day, with an
expression of withering disdain.
"Theu you nlu't got me beat no ten
years. I's got you beat Just ten years.
Say, I got ten years comin' that you
won't see again."
"Look here, man," declared the bead
day, "you ain't got no sense. I's sure
of them ten years, 'cause I's seem 'em
an" been through 'em. You ain't sure
of yours. You might die tomorrow."
A Source of Contagion,
It has been proved by abundant In
vcstlgatlou that one prolific source of
epidemic diseases Is found In the lia
bility of the germs of such diseases to
lodge In the mouth around the teeth
and gums. A physician examined the
teeth of the children of a certain
school. lie found disease germs pres
ent In almost every case. By careful
watching be Olscovered that those chil
dren whose teeth were kept cleanest
sufTered less from epidemic diseases.
The neglected condition of Ui- teeth Is,
therefore, a common cause of Illness.
Indeed, if one till::'-, the trouble to ob
serve with vl;at rap': '.:;y the. tartar
and cheesy matter accumulate around
the teeth of )eople who are out of
health they will not he long In making

She Couldn't See the Bars
An old liMt In New Hampshire de
cided to try matrimony for the second
time In extreme old age. Her children
and grandchildren and great-grandchildren
expostulated with her, but she re
mained firm aud declared she was go
ing to marry the man, says the Boston
Herald.
"Why, you're too old," said they.
"You are losing your faculties. You
can't see. If this man was on the otVr
aide of the street you couldn't tell hfm
from any one else."
The old lady said she was going to
marry him. "Now, we'll put the man
on top of the baru, and you shall stand
In the kitchen door. If you can sea
him on the barn you shall marry him."
The prospective bridegroom sat on
the ridgepole of the barn, the old lady
came to the door, looked, shaded her
eyes and looked again..
"Do you see him?" cried the family.
"Oh, yes," was the reply. "I can see
the man all right, but I can't see the
barn!"
