The 118« o f Slung. * It Is very common to deprecate Ike use of "slang,” and Judge Truitt’s mention of it in his lecture reminds us to inquire for a defini- Ho!, The term "slang” is itself a r iu g term, or was such at no very distant period of time. To culti vate purity of speech, by which is veant to use only approved Eng lish, is enjoined by text-books and teachers as a rule that can be vio lated only at the expense of one's reputation for culture and erudi tion. But it is, at the same time, admitted that the English language b growing, by the continual addi tion of words to its vocabulary; not only those words which aro deliberately manufactured to sup ply needed scientific terms, but these which spring from no one knows where, or how. rlho words of this latter class, before they pats their probation and get into the dictionaries, aro called slang. Such words remain on trial for a time, and arc either dropped out of nee and forgotten, or they are, by a of natural selection, incorpor- into and become a part of the living language. Hence, what is ■laag for one generation may be employed by the next as proper and expressive parts of the lan guage. These slang words, too, have oftentimes an ancient and noble pedigree. The word “sabe" is a Spanish word, and, with its French cousin “savoir,” is derived from the Latin “scire.” It comes to us laden with the glory of the "City of the Seven Hills." The slang word “cinch,” with its pri mary signification of a saddle-girth, and its secondary meaning of swindling, cheating or undue ad vantage, plainly traces its descent from "cinctum,” a Latin word meaning “ bound.” Even so slangy n word as "skndaddlo” may claim an ancestry still more nncient and patrician, for the Greek word “skodaskai” (to run) may clearly es tablish for itself the paternity of its modem, and not less expressive, »lana^T-ynony«.. The word "ante,” which means “you must put up be fore you play," and which, not from aotual knowledge, but only on in formation and belief, wo may state is a term used by persons who play a game called poker, is the exact torra the Homans used to express the idea of “ before.” The list might be extended, but enough is given to show thet many words which we deride as slang have, in reality, a paioutage as respectable as the jqc ' u genteel member'.-'of our'feca’tmlwy. Slang phrases are used when we wisn to express an idea more quaintly or more emphatically than we can do by the ordinary modes of speech. The phrase “ you bet” lean absolute necessity of this age. Simple “yes” fails to answer with that emphasis which our high pres sure life requires. “ Not much” is ile correlative, and contains a world af contemptuous negation, of which plain "no” is utterly incapable, “Too utterly too-too" is the product of Boston culture, and was invented ■pscially to describe Oscar Wilde, and without which the {esthetic post must have remained forever unlabeled. “Gone up tho spout” is better than a picture, in repre senting to us that unhappy fate which no other form of speech could so fitly describe. Now, if it be admitted that the English language is growing —and every language must do that so long as tho people who speak it are progressive— wo aro under the aseessity of using the new terms, which, in their probative period, are slang. Tho u»a of slang, then, ip not only tho sign, hut the very condition of a progressive life. To eliminate such use would at once show it to be and make it to bo a dead language, and the people who uue it a decaying race. The noble lineage we have point- edout^ofsomcoftheostracised words, ht to reconcile us to the use of They are not parvenus or s, but come sounding down , hoary with tho rime of and ringing with the a&d meaning that tkun- ! in tbc rosr of Homeric verm, in the Jv nian music of ntmhers. They will do of ilw real of the slang , vhethvr words or pliiasoa, prove their right to Iw, 1 out of use without the lances. They are Suds upon the vigor- arill wither and »will grow into perfect their fragrance a to come, in sunny r sounding sea», where i are yet unheard, that wo are run- ning counter to the current of liter ary criticism. Wo arc not right sure that wo mean all we havo written. When we commenced to write, We did nut foicsje the colt; elusion, but we have followed tho logic, straight as a line, and to use a phrase that is perhaps within the definition of slang, we are not “go ing back on it” now. E D IT O R IA L VOTES. The loss of fife in the Milwaukee holocaust is now ascertained to be saventy-fivo persons. The National Woman Suffrage Association is holding a session in Washington City, for tho purpose of securing a favorablo report from the committees. Dr. H. Carpenter, formorly of Salem but now of Portland, has been appointed, by the Board of Commisaioners for the State Insane Asylum, Superintendant of that in stitution. Red Cloud, the Indian Chief, is visiting Yale College. His purpose is not stated in the dispatch, but it doea state that “ be did not attend oharcb, being indisposed,” an excuse that shows he is rapidly “ catching oa” oivilized notions. The Treasury Department, having ruled that it is not contrary to the restriction act for Chinese to travel across the Uuitod Statos on their way to and from China, rules have been adopted to prevent such trav elers from stopping in this country. Tho vigilantes hung two roughs at the N. P. It. R. front last Satur day night. On Monday night a gambler was shot and killed by a carpenter. There is a lively time at the “ front,” which should induce cautious people to remain iu the rear. Tliero aro thoso who think the Oregon Legislature extravagant in granting onch member five dollars’ worth of postage stamps. Tho Penn sylvania Legislature, however,throws our own iu tho shade. It lias just given to each member oue hundred dollars in stamps. The recent cold spell brought the mercury 20 degrees below zero at Omaha, 25 degrees below zero nt Ogden and 22 degrees below zero at Yankton. In the Willamette Valley tho thermometer aVibwed about 8 Jegrees above zero, and yet wo all thought it was cold. It is now stated by a trustworthy San Francisco merchant that DO per cent, of the California butter seld in 1 Oregon is not butter at all, but oleo margarine. This is denied by Port land merchants. Whether it is true or not, the controversy shows that tho new stuff is butter to all intents and purposes, for otherwise there could bo n i question as to its identi ty. Here a broad field is opened up. We may suppose thr t oleomargarine, being a new invention, is yet to be improved. Cows must go out of fashion. All the poetry that has boon written about milk-maids and tho “ foaming pail” will be anach ronistic. Jersey cattle will decline C O M B in price, for the boviuo Othello’s oc cupation will bo gono. Thero is only one thing that will postpone this consummation. Oleomargarine is too cumbersomo a word for trade. Burdened with such a name, the substance stands no show against simple butter. Life is too short to waste six syllables every time you want a little grease. In the mean F o r C h eap G o o d s o f all kinds, as w e are b u y in g time, it is a state of very painful suspension for us not to know which ou r g o o d s d ir e c t from S an F r a n cis c o an d E a stern side of our bread is -buttered, or m a n u fa ctu rers, w h ich en ab les us t o sell ch ea p er whether it is buttered at all.
