THURSDAY. AUGUST 27, 1891. Till: CANADA TJIISTMC. While on our recent tiip through the southeastern part of tho eotuity wo noticed u great many of tho fields and public l.iyhwayn were lined with the Canada thistle. We called atten tion to tho law in ugard to tliw mat ter a Hhoi t lime ago. Our road super visors should Hco that the law is enforced, an the weed is very destruct ive and dangerous when it once gctH a etarl. For t e benefit of all wo give tho law in regard to thin matter and hope to Nee it enforced. Sections 1, 2, 3, -1, 5 and (! of tho general law of Oregon for 188'J road aw folloWH: Section 1. That it Hhall bo tho duty of tho supervisors of the several counties in this State, in addition to tho duties hitherto prescribed by law, to cause tho destruction, in the man ner which to tho said supervisor shall seem the most efi'ective, of tho weed known an tho Canada thistle, wheie BUt'h weed shall ho found growing upon the public highways and county roadH of this State. Section 2. The road supervisors of each road district in this State shall immediately after this Act takes oiled, and from time to time thereafter, ascertain whether or not thoro is any weed known as tlte Canada thistle in his road district, and shall as soon as ho ascertains that there is any of said weed, notify the county court of his county in writing at a regular session thereof ot the existenco of said weed, and upon whose laud the said weed is growing. As soon as tho county court, lias received said information said court shall appoint a householder in said road disliict as a commissioner, to hold ollice for the term of one year, who.'o duty it shall be to cause the said wood to bo extirpated wherever found within said district. Sedion it. When tho commission er aforesaid is appointed it shall be his duty to ascertain from tho road super visor of his district tho exact location of said weed, and he shall then notify the owner of the laud upon which it is growing of its presence thereon, and request said owner to eflectually re move said wood from his land; and in case the residence of the owner u unknown or is so fur away that ho cannot be notified, or, if notified, cannot attend to tho extirpation of said weed within a reasonable time, then it shall be the duty of the commissioner to notify the occupant of said laud and request him to extirpate said weed from said land. Section !. If such owner or occu pant shall fail or refuse to destroy such weed after being notified by tho commissioner of tho existence of such weed upon his land, then it shall bo tho duty of said commissioner, and ho shall have authority to go upon said land and cause said weed to bo extir pated from said laud in tho manner which to him seems the most efi'ective. The expense of destoying said weed on said land shall be paid upon showing made by the commissioner out of tho county funds, and shall bo and remain a charge upon said lauds to be as sessed to said land and collected tho same as taxes; provided, that tho samo may bo remitted by tho county court at any regular session thereof upon the petition of ten resident house-holders of tho precinct whero said petition er resides. Section ft. The commissioner shall receive from tho county for his ser vices, specified in sections It and -I of this Act, the sum of two dollars per day for tho time actually employed. Section 0. If the road supervisor or commissioner mentioned in this Act wilfully violatos any of tho pro visions thereof, ho shall bo deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof in any justieo's court having competent jurisdiction, shall bo fined not loss than fifty nor more then than one hundred dollars for each ofi'euse. Thoro iw a great amount of those weeds growing in some of tho back streets throughout this city which should bo immcdiutoly exterminated. Sections 7 and 8 of tho same law roads us follows : Section 7, It shall be tho duty of all municipal corporations and county authorities in this State to provide for tho extermination of said Cauadu thistle within the limits of such cor poration or on tho vacant lands with in such county, and any city or town corporation within this State neglect ing or refusing to comply with the provwioiis of this soot ion shall bo liablu to a forfeiture to tho Statu of a sum not lees than fifty nor more than live humln d iMlats, to bu recovered by sun in the name of tho Kluto in any court of oompotout iurudiouoii. h'untioil 8. Jt shall bo the duty of the tovoral diitriut attorneys of this Hindi to pnmoouto ull Mills hi otic hi under I ho niovuioii of motion 7 with in llieir rurpootlvo counties, and suoli "tlunioys k4Ull l" entitled y u fuy of i twenty-five dollars for every judgment rendered in favor of the State in such suits, and shall bo entitled to fee of ten dollars for ovcry suit brought under the provisions of this Act when judgment is rendered against the State. As will be scon tho law 18 very strict in regard to this matter, and well it should bo. Lot it bo enforced at once, before tho weed gets a groater start. THft UEKOIIM COMtJCO. In what mannor and through what channels tho needed reforms in tho ad ministration of this govornmont will bo brought about, none ran divine, but that reform must bo had and its coming is virtually a second question. Go whore you will, and conrerso with whom you may, touching nation al affairs, you will find a deeply sottled and fixed ide that reform must bo had. Every day is realized the fact that financial oppression is resting upon the poople, and that this oppression is more keenly felt by tho laboring or working classos, who constitute a largo majority of tho people of tho govern ment. Never in tho history of this govern ment have theso working people been more thoroughly and rapidly educated on tho real status of government af fairs than thoy are now. Nover have tho masses been soj firmly fixed in their purposo and so universally united in their determination to work out a, relief from tho burdens that oppross them as thoy uo now. Nuver has the antipathy to partisans and tho abhor rence to partv spirit and of political bigots ben so deep and broad, and all pervading among tho common people as it is now. Never in tho history of our country has the idea, that our gov ernment is hastening to become an oligarchy, been so universuljamong tho voting populace as it is found to bo now. Never before have tho farmers of this land been so universal in coming to tho front on questions of political economy, and in assuming to exorciso the rights vested in them un der constitutional prerogatives, as thoy arc now. Nover havo they boon so united in openly and publicly demanding their rights in and their sharo of tho benefits, of government as thoy are throughout this land to-day. And what does.alUhis arguo? That thoy are weak-minded and cranky fanatics as some aro wont to believe? Far from that. It simply argues that thoy aro being educated to see more clearly the maolstom of poverty auil want into which thoy aro being led by a few who assume to rule and govoru so that they may fatten upon the labors of tho many. It argues thai the men from tho fields and tho work shops aro being moro fully and com pletely waked up to a realization of tho faot that thoy aro boing imposed up on by unjust and unevenly distributed taxation for tho support of government and its vampires. It shows that the people of all classes, outside of political demagogues and political bigots, aro stronger advocates of an honest politi cal economy, than of party spirit, and that they aro fostering and nurturing a determination to bring about through tho ballot, if need bo, a res toration of pure methods in the ad ministration of government. In short, these aro but tho coming waves of a great political revolution that is destined to sweep over this land and clear away tho political corruption and rottenness that havo poisoned every fiber of tho government, and that will sweep out of positions tho political corruptionists who caro naught for tho general interest, nor anything else save that which will in sure no personal proferment and indi vidual gain. Monroe Advertiser. Education. Kditou Oukoon Scour: " ' l is education forms tho common mind: Just us tho twig is bent, the tiee's iiicliueti.'' In this couplet is enunciated a tru ism, by which tho infantile mind is likened unto a tender branch growing up to become a tree in after time, which should not bo bent, or re tarded in its growth, that it may grow and become a majestic tree instead of a dwarfed ami unsightly specimen. So tho iufaut mind in its first under standing, or attemt to understand, by tho organs of sight and hearing, the actions and sayings of persons by whom it is surrounded. Tho tint ru diment of education aro not derived from books, but for years boforw the child has a knowledge of written or printed thoughts, it is gathering inurseU of education from the action ami tiiylng of iU guardian ami mentor. Tho intellectual fmniltlc of children aro tory pUttic, and riuily rt'oiho injwoitiuu iu( aio so iiideli by niuuldcd luto tUvtr UlUtf that It ! will take yoara to ercdicatc from their minds, if wrong. Tho parents or nursea whoso duty it is to care for the little ones should bo vory careful to look after tho woll-bcing of thoir men tal, as woll as thoir physical dovolop mont, and should present to their view scenes of pleasure and delight, and to their hearing purity of speech. Thero should bo no loud or boisterous con troversies before thorn, by which their minds may receive impressions of fright, for remombor you aro bonding the "twig" and may perhaps cause it to so swerve from tho porpindicular as to causo you years of sorrow, as well as sorrow to tho child. Lot nil your actions boforo a child bo mild and forbearing, not only to tho child, hut to others in tho child's presence. As a child progresses in understanding it will readily perceive when thero ara jarring discords botweon oldor porsons and it will invariable cling to tho ono and, with a lsok of terror, conceive ii its own mind that tho othor is to bo fearod, and for a tirna it will shun tho other with childish hato and soorn mingled with fear for its own safety and the safety of the ono to wham it clings for protection. Almost tho first that a child learns abovo its natural instinct it to sook protootion fram real or supposed dangor. Homo ubildren aro very precocious, and have an un derstanding in advance of their age and physical strength. Suck children should be governed with extroate oare and older porsons should be admon ished not to porplex aad contradiot with them, oven in a spirit of levity, but to govorn thomselves, when with such children, with decorum of actions and purity of speech, lest the child's mind bo bent in such a war as to cause it to become too forward, which will often causo its parents, and others, to blush at something it may say at a time when it would have boen bettor had it not boon said. To auoh a child mild caution at proper times is hotter than to allow it to go on too far in its childish prattle. And sueb. exuber ance of thought and speech should bo gently pruned ore "the mind bocomes swayed in such a mannor as to cause it to become deformed by aclf-oonceit and irrovorouco towards older persons. As a child grows physically, its intel lectual organs expand and it begins to learn and judge of persons and things around it, and is ever ready to catch and adhere to tho actions and sayiuga of its elders, hence it becomes the sacred duty of its parents and guardi ans to know that it is taught iu the ways of truth, with regard to its sur roundings; and us it progresses iu the knowledge of written or printed lan guage, lot it first loam that which is easily muds plain to its uuderstaudius;. Children vary much as to tho ago uf their moutal powers. One child may bo at tho ago of ten years intellectually in advance of another at tho age of twelve or fourteen years. Children of such difference should not be classed together in the pursuit of the same studios, lest it retard the prcgress of tho one, or discourage the other, who will endeavor to keep along by skip ping parts of tho lesson and thus ac complish but littlo. Such classing is perplexing to both, and their progress retarded to a degi re. As minds progress rom child to vouth, Teach them to love the ways of truth. In tho progress of their minds, us they become capacitated to learn of tho objects around them, give them object lessons. Instruct them why, how, and for what purposo arc the things which thoy see around them, reserving always such as are not prop er for tho youthful mind yet to learn. Listen to all they may ask, and kindly admonish them that of some subjects and things they aro not yot ready to learn or understand. Yot in all that you do to instruct them, let your in structions bo truthful. Vary not one jot or tittle from the truth as far as iu you lies. Imbuo into their minds con fidence to relv on tho truthfulness of your teachings. Teach them to exer cise their own powers of discernment that they may be enabled to discern tho truth from tho falsity of the teach ings that they may from time to timo havo presented to them. Teach them to discern between a true talo of facts and the imaginary effusions of an author's ficticious paintiug of a wordy story. Never attempt to coeret their minds into a belief of anything that you cauuot convey intelligently to their uuderstauding, Teach theut to love duty for tho love of tho pleasure that obeying will bring unto thstu, and not through fear of correction, or of soium imaginary evil that will over take them if they disobey, Track them (o exercise their own minds, with thoughts unbiased by prejudice, and with reason to duoido eouerraiug ull thoughts and idoutof others (but tuay from timo to time be prrsciitoU.
