The people of Spokane are always ready to encourage and aid a meas ure which is for the general welfare of the city and which attracts atten tion to our resources, says the Spo kane Chronicle, but they are not ready to oppose the rassage of an anti-gambling law, simply because some bookmakers want races held here wth open betting on the re sults. The poolrooms have been put out of business in nearly every state in the union as pernicious and a menace to good morals. Of all classes of gambling there Is hardly one that is more attractive than pool selling, and many a young man has been ruined and has served time In prison be cause he embezzled money belonging to others to satisfy his craving for) the excitement of betting on the "ponies." I Spokane would be much better off; without any race track at all, than to have one which would depend for its success on the open selling of pools. but It Is far better to rely for Justice upon it than upon n mad, unreason lug mob. Whether manifested by crowds or by groups or by Individuals, says the New York World, Is mob violence Is a deadly assault upon society and government. It should be put down at any cost. It will have to be put dt wn presently If society is to escape the. very evils which It was organized to resist. The desperadoes of the unwritten law assume to enact their grievances, their passions and their egotism Into i code from which there is no ap peal. They fill the land with violence and scandal. They debauch the pub II.; mind In many ways. They In volve the Innocent with the guilty in shame. They defile everything that they touch, and they attempt to pol lute justice In Its very temples. Of the law which they defy they beg a last sanction of their murderous ('.reds. OXYGEX IX ATHLETICS. An English physician is experi menting upon athletes with oxygen. He believes that by reinforcing the "wind" of track performers he will be able to shatter many sporting rec ords. One runner brought before him ordinarily runs a quarter mile n 52 seconds reduced this time to 50:20 after breathing oxygen for two min utes. Such tests are Interesting physiol ogically. The value of the oxygen treatment In practical use would de pend on the point of view. If the record Is anything to be considered and it has to be admitted that the modern tone with regard to races favors this idea then the oxygen tank must prove a beneficence In the athletic world. On the other hand temporarily stimulating appliances have no place In contests intended to try the natural or naturally cultivat ed i-tr'-ngth and endurance of men. Race-track rules bar "doped" horses. Oxygen for human contest ants is a "dope," though harmless. The doctor's tank ranks with the windshields of the troting course as a purely artificial and exterior aid to time performance. In real ath letics the work will continue to be done by man himself and not by an exhilarating fluid held on tap at the poet. THE IIAlsniAV TUB EATEX EI). In Germany a decree has recently gone forth allowing women the same educational opportunities as men and the Fatherland has been somewhat shaken thereby. In commenting up on the proposition the St. Louis Post Dispatch says: "Hausfrau" as a term means more in German than is Implied In a liter al translation to the English "house wife." It stands for an institution of ages, a glory of the empire. It ex presses the- old German Idea of wo man's place In the economy of affairs. It explains the elation of the land In the possession of an empress who has declared her devotion to "Kinder, Klrche and Kuche." No ordinary national thrill Is- that accompanying the fear that ihe haus frau ideal Is threatened by the new German decree granting to women equal opportunities with men for the higher scholastic education. A little knowledge may be anywhere a dangerous thing. A liberal educa tion anywhere should be a prepara tion, an equipment, the means to a leslrable end, and the pursuit of such a training should lmpiy a purpose of usefulness. Granting such a purpose, one really concedes the whole ense against which apprehensive Germany protests. It Is ridiculous to maintain that a woman with the new ambitions of the age should school herself in flexibly to the role of 1i tame cat by the sitting room fire. But It Is m chievous when a girl comes out of her college career, aimless Idle-h.-yiJ ed, convinced chiefly that by culture and association she has acquired "the superiority of a class. America, with Its multiplying colle ges for women, does not find that It has sacrificed the home-maker to the diploma. Germany Is not likely to love less the hausfrau of the future if she is able to bear her part In the talk of philosophy, literature and the exact sciences. 1BBIGATIOX. Who dreamed, wild brained, so mar velous a thing- That In these deserts drought-be seamed and old Should stir the hope, unutterably bold. Of lnte fruition? That .the years should bring New you;h, and from white, barren sands should spring Aspiring seeds that yield an hundred fold? Who would believe, though nngel tongues had told, N That Joy In these sadM'eglons should be king? Dry chasms burgeon swift almost as thought And there a plain In verdant glory lies, That cist was dust and ashes. Sure ly nuuitht Is now Impossible. Hefore our eyes, A mlraclo the hand of man has wrought To make the dead In living splendor' rise! Margaret Ashmun In Sunset. GOLDEN KOI).

In the dark days r the reconstruction era the south erners found in the unwritten code their only protection from negro atro cities and in the early days of the west horsethleves had more respect for vigilantes than they did for the written law of the land. But even in those days lynch law was deplored and It should now be Intolerable. As a rule mobs are blind, cruel and cowardly. The law- may sometimes be slow and ineffective, By vote of the Chicago board of education, the validity Is established of the marriage of Henry VTII and Catherine of Aragon. The same body pronounces against the authority of Clement VII, to grant a divorce to Britain's most famous seeker of af finities. These decisions narrow ap preciably the open field of historical dispute and bear heavily on the moot question of Papal Infallibility. We hope, says an exchange, the Chicago board is not through with its labors in the interest of historical accuracy. A world waits still in suspense to learn beyond doubt the Identity of the "Man In the Iron Mask" and to be assured that, despite modern de fenders, Richard III was as .black as he has been painted. Pendleton welcomes the school peo ple cordially, both teachers and stu dents. No class is more appreciated here than they, and none Is more en titled to the consideration and good will of the people of the city. In Ptndleton every man Is a lab .r er and could Join In a Labor day cel ebration if there was one and it wis not such a busy time. HE "REPORTED THE WEDDING. A political correspondent of a west em Kansas paper was recently asked to report a wedding which was to oc cur In the town In which l:e happen ed to be that night. Here Is the report the editor of the paper got: "Amid scenes of splendor and sounds of sweet concord (I sup pose that's the way to start out) Vic toria, the beautiful daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Merrill (may the Lord forgive -me), was married to Mr. Ed ward Post. Promptly at 8 o'clock the bride, a vision in what (I'll never do a thing like this as long as I life ) "Of course the bride wore clothes and there were roses and music and things to eat; but I don't know where to put them in. The bride's father Is a prominent ranchman and the bride groom is a decent young chap, which I suppose should go In somewhere. Please don't ask me to write up any more weddings." Kansas City Jour nal. IWCOXSl'IOVS II I'M OR. English humor Is often painful, and the most delirious bits of Eng lish humor that find their way to this country are often accompanied by evidences that proves It to be un conscious humor. Hefferon was the Englishman who entered for the Marathon race In the recent Olympic games In England. Speaking of him and his sprinting the London Chron icle said: "Hefferon went to South Africa during the Boer war and there learnt to run." That Is really funny. NEW LIFE BRAINS I NERVE iB H:1TMaI E" Strength PERILS OF EDITING. It is the business of a newspaper man to boom the city for all It Is worth month after month, and then see 150 worth of printing go out of the city because 10 cents can be sav ed by so doing. It is the business of the newspaper to give every local en terprise enthusiastic and frequcrft "sendoffs" and then catch sheol be cause he failed to record the fact that some prominent citizen has his de livery wagon painted. To subscribe liberally to every public, charitable and church enterprise, advertise them for nothing, pay his own way to ev ery thing and then be called prejud iced and mean spirited because a col umn Is not devoted to that particular affair. Do you wonder that there are so many cranks in the newspaper business? It Is bound to make either a crank or & philosopher out of a man. Peotone (III.)

If having been lost adds virtue to a mine, the property ,on Currant creek, nov being opened by a group of Provo gentlemen, should be a very meritor ious proposition, says Goodwins Weekly of Salt Lake City. It has been demonstrated with volumes of carbonic acid gits and a wealth of historic detail that this ground was extensively mined over by the Span lards 125 years ago, and has been un known to the white men since. Until four years ago It was Incor porated within the boundaries of the I'lntuh Indian reservation and became subject to mineral entry only when the reservation was thrown open to settlement The ancient mine Is near the headwaters of Currant creek and some 80 miles northwest of Provo. The primitive miners went about the work of gold-digging by driving two parallel tunnels through the aur iferous stratum and then they cross cut backward and forward between the tunnels obtaining most of their golden reward in the form of nug gets.
