As a result of the recent se vere earthquake in Jamaica, Kingston the principal city, is and will be for some time the picture of desolation- Governor Swettenham reports to the Eng lish government to have buried 500 bodies and estimates 200 more not yet recovered from the debris. ' Surely this bespeaks a condition horrible enough. During the panis occasioned by the awful seismic distur bances Rear-Admiral Davis of the United States navy hasten ed to assist in every way possi ble the suffering and distressed of Kingston, also to aid in clear inj? away the debris and main tain order. That this assistance could be rendered it was neces f ary for him to land a number of bluejackets. They were not welcome guests nor valued as shtants from the viewpoint of Swettenham and he promptly in dited a letter to Admiral Davis which plainly indicated that the governor would be pleased to have the bluejackets kept aboard ship. The incident has proved the source of almost universal atten tion and international impor tance. However, no serious complications will arise from the incident. Beyond doubt the only consideration which prompted Admiral Davis to land men was to render such assistance as was possible during that awful period of human woe. There certainly was no desire on his part nor on the part of the government he represents to intrude himself and establish any claim what ever upon British subjects or British soil. That Gov. Swetten ham was not broad enough to perceive the motive of Admiral Davis is unfortunate and must be both embarrasing and morti fying to all true-hearted and broad-minded Britons. From what is learned of the temper and mind of the British government it is mora than pro bable that ere many moons Jam aica will be blessed by a gov ernor whose name will not be Swettenham. Whether Gov. Swettenham was convinced of his own almighty power, his own potency, or was simply out of his head temporarily or for all time is the question. In time of such great horrors as experienced by San Francisco, Kingston, and elsewhere during the past year the only thing which prompts action is "man's humanity to man." It is not the tima to seek any advantage, commercially or otherwise, of a stricken people and any man or nation striving to prosper there by simply brand themselves bar barians and prove themselves unworthy of the tobration of any civilized people- WARMLY WELCOMED. What a contrast is presented by the attention showed William Jennings Bryan on his first and last trips to Oregon. When he first visited our state about 1894 or 1895 few people cared to hear what he might say, but on his campaign visit in 1897 he was treated as a god and people traveled many miles to listen to his oratory. During the past week he has again made a tour of our state and everywhere he has received nothing short of ovations. While there are certain ideas of Mr. Bryan which are not en dorsed by, politicians of opposite parties, in fact, even of his own party, there is no denying that as a man he certainly stands far above the mass of his fellows, Without good sense "and great per s nai maenetism it would be im possible for him to maintain his hold upon the people as he bas, for Americans are not easily fooled- Some of Mr. Bryan's ideas are (rood and he is living to see them enforced, and worked effectively in many ways throughout the land. While we differ strongly with Mr. Bryan on some points there is no deny ing that he is the foremost democrat of the day, nor i3 there any reason why he should be de cried or refused that recognition to which he is justly entitled. Bryan as a man is all right and it is hard to believe from his oublic utterances that he does not have the welfare of the country at heart or to question his patriotism. We are speaking of Mr. Bryan as a man, an American gentleman, of which he represents the highest type, and are not considering him as a politician. For Hunters. We believe every applicant for a hunting license should be com pelled to pass an examination. For instance if he could answer the following questions to the satisfaction of the county judge, then he should be treated as an American citizen, otherwise as an anarchist: Are you married, insane, both? Can you tell which end your gun is loaded? or of While suffering from an at- tack of buck fever do yon think you could tell the difference be tween a red jacketed huater and a deer.' Can vou tell - when a gnu is loaded without looking into the muzzle or pointing it at a friend and snapping it? When were you last examined for insanity, and were you ever an inmate of a home for the feeble-minded? In going through a fence would you crawl through and pull the gun aiter you? Both in rang?, which would vou shoot first, a rabbit or a gray horse? Are you a prohibitionist? If not, do you think the use o' intoxicating liquors aids you in seeing more game? What kind, if any, do you use squirrel or barb wire? At what distance do you think that you could kill another hunter? Do you shoot by sound or wait for the game? How long would it take you to tell all you know about fire-arms? Would you rather miss killing a deer than take chances of mak ing an angel out of a companion? Do you believe in shooting in haste and repenting at leisure? Lastly, can you tell the differ ence between a Winchester aad a squirt-gun? Ex. For Kenton Teachers. Superintendent Den man has had l tint ed a lare nuoiberot pamphlets which he proposes to send to the various school teachers of Benton county. He is also sending a circular letter to the teachers which in full rea te as follows: "Dear Teacher: I herewith send you a number of descriptive pamphlets giving all nec essary data and information to be known by papils about the 'All Benton' School Fair.' Yon will distribute these among your schools, bo that one copy goes into every home in joar district where there is a child ol J enough to enter aay of the contests. You are also requested to urge on your pupils as follows: 1st, Place this pam phlet where it will not be lost. Only one 'copy', will be allowed each home. 2nd, To place order of seed so that they will be in toy office, as indicated by pamphlet, on last day ot February. 3rd, To use your beat efforts to enlist the in terest, co-operation and help of your pu pils. 4th, The teacher will be relied up on to have their district or room repre sented at the fair. 5th, No letters are to be answered concerning the fair, when dati can be found in circular. 6th, All pamphlets unused are to be returned to me. Hoping for and expecting your hearty co-operation in thu indusum fair, I re main, etc. What He Thinks. (Continued from paje 1) vantage ot the opportunity to at tend the farmers' short course and perhaps uext year there will be a larger attendance from Polk and Marion counties. Clover and Hogs. (Continued from pag l,. , rule never made a good - 'stand, arid the farmers lost the- use . of their ground and the cost of seed.' I have made it a rule to get home-grown seed and see the land it grew on, so as not to. get fooled. I will guarantee seed I sell to grow if it is -put in accord ing to my directions. . I select the seed from the best and cleanest farms, and some times pay the farmer more foi the seed than the seed company are selling it for. ' " I do not know anything that will help the farmer out moie than good seeds and purebred stock. I will be glad to send anyone my seed catalogue and directions how to raise clover aud alfalfa. He Lost His Prize. Although Corvallis is a "dry" town except when it rains, there is an occasional bottle here, and there, it is declared, to relieve the thirst of the select lew who are "onto their job.". Recently one of these bottles, belonging to Mr. B , was discovered by a cer tain laborer on the premises. It looked good to the man with the ax, whom we will call "Ready" for short, and after satisfying himself that no one was looking, Reddy -rasped the temDation and dodging around the build ings, deposited the bottle under a small bridge across the road. With a glance about to make sure he was unobserved the thirsty one then hied back to his work, smacking his lips, as he sawed wood and thought of the drink he would have later. But no sooner had he left the bridge than a certain Mrs. W. who hal watched Reddy's antics from behind a curtain, informed her husband that something had been stolen and placed under the bridge, and in the twiskling of an eye the bottle had been re moved by Mr. W. and safely put away. Reddy sawed wood only a few moments, when he evidently de cided to emoty the bottle, and going back he thrust his arm un der the bridge for his prize. But no bottle touched his hand and stooping Reddy gazed with wide open, astonished eyes at the spot where the flask should have been.' Convinced at last that he had been buncoed, Le arose, g82ed sheepishly about, dusted the knees of. bis jeans, ana with a bilious smile sluukaway, a sadder and probably a thirstier man. Wedded and Qon A. very pretty wedding was celebra'ed in this city Saturday evening when Mits Hildetrarde Tiommer barame the bride of Charles Beekwith, Jr. The event took place at the home of the bride iu the northern part of town. Promptly at eitfht o'clock to the mceic of a violin p'ayed by the bride's fattier, the young couple entered the parlor where tliey were met by Rev. C. T. Hard of the,Uiiited Evnngeliia. church who performed the impressive ceremony. The brMe was very pretty is a modest traveling suit of gray, her bridesmaid be ing Mise Ivy Camp eel I. The' grooms man was Gay Newton, cousin of the groom . , '': : The ceremony was witnessed by 26 guests, all re atives of the interested par. tie. . - . Sunday a sumptuous dicner was served by Mrs. Beekwith, the grooms mother, 16 guests being present, and at 1 UO the happy young couple departed for . Ritz- ville, Wash., where they will rtside. Ttie groom has a good position as engineer for an electric light and ice plant, with good prospects for advancement. Both bride and groom are well and favorably known in Corvallis and a host of frieade join in good wishes for their future. . . .. .' . . Prevention. The address Dr. E. A. Pierce, of the Open-Air Sanitarium for CoHsumptives, before the Moth ers' , and Teachers' Clnb of Brooklyn, might with profit be printed upon a leaflet and given into the hands of every mother and teacher in the land. It pre sents the simple methods of pre vention: of one of the most preva lent and deadly of all diseases that affects the civilized wjrld, as well as the elements of a possible cure in the incipient stages of this disease. The chief fact presented is that tuberculosis in its various forms is not inherited, but an acquired malady. - A, low condition . of itality, congenital or induced by depressing influences, physical or mental, invites, the development of the bacillus, a small vegetable otganism .--which is the active agent of the disease. "Anything that lowers the vitality so that the resistive power ot the individ ual is below the normal standard acts as contributory cause." As to heritage, "the offspring ot dis eased or feeble parents iaheiit a general-lack of resistive power and the more readilv fall a piey to disease." Herein lies the dan ger to the offspring ol diseased or weak parents. This fact, with others in regard to . the care of children in school and out, is brought out plainly in this ad dress, the whole constituting a letter at once practical end ideal, which, if Governor Chamtei lain's sugges ion that teachers te required to be given instruction upon tuberculosis, its cause and treatment, at stated times to their classes is acted upon favorably, would be a valuable addition to their stock of information upon this very vital subject. Oregon ian Editorial. UNCLE TOM'S CABIN To be Given at the Opera House Thursday Night. . Oue of the stage stories that will ever - remain strong and true to theatregoers is "TJucle Tom's Cabin," a sumptuous production of which will be given at the opera house on Thursday night.
