Swope, Is sched uled upon tho docket of tho criminal court to begin next Monday, but it is quite likely that tho state will ask for another continuance, as the spe cial prosecutor, United States Sena tor J. A. Reed, is still detained in Washington by his duties in con gress. If another postponement is asked for and granted the caso will probably not come up until after the adjournment of cougress. At the first trial, In tho spring of 1910, Dr. Hyde was found guilty and was sentenced to imprisonment for life, but a now trial was granted, wlilch camo up last year. Hyde's second trial ended abruptly when Harry Waldron, one of tho Jurors, escaped from the marshals. The third trial was to begin on January 2, 1912, but at the request of the prosecution it was postponed until May 27, in tho hope that by that timo Senator Reed would be at leis ure to give his attention to tho case. Dr. C. Clark Hyde had been un der suspicion in connection with the aiystcrious Illness and deaths In the swopo family ever since tho death of Colonel Thomas H. Swopo on Octo ber 3, 1909. Tho death of Colonel Swopo followed sqpu after ho had suffered a severe convulsion, and this convulsion, it was charged by tho membors or tho Swopo family, followed immediately after tho ad ministration of a capsule given by direction of Dr. Hyde. Dr. Hydo said it was a digestive tablet. It was proved at tho trial that Dr. Hydo had purchased cyanide of po tassium In five-grain capsules. Dr. Hydo claimed ho bought tho cyanide capsules to kill roaches in his office. HONOLULU MAN BUYS LAND IN ROGUE VALLEY Wontworth Buchanan, Honolulu capitalist, closed a deal directly with W. D.

W 1LLTAM JENNINGS meeting to the Titanic "Let no man bring to my deathbed for my consola tion Darwin's 'Descent of Alan'. Rather let my friend read to me the twenty-third shepherd,; I shall not want.' " To all of its there conies, some time in life, this propo prepo prope sition: Either I am descended from a soulless, stomaehless, brainless, spineless germ, as science declares, or 1 am from God. Fascinating in the extreme is a study of the scientific side "of the proposition, logical is its argument. But its end is a blank wall no hope, no consolation. We are simply soulless brutes of high degree and life is but a contemptible joke on the spermatozoa. Wo go to our deaths in Titanies and that's the last of us, so far as our widows, orphans and loved friends are concerned. Disbe lief, hopelessness, despair! "When a man has reached Bryan's age he sees that all the happiness possible in this life does not suffice, with Death and Eternity knocking at the door, that all the force of reason, all the deductions of logic fall short of what man if he thinks must have. Face to face with Forever, man turns from the deep black pit which logic has dug downward and turns his face upward to catch the blessed satisfying rays of faith from on high. The picture of his child's cold corpse knocking about with the cadavers in the Titanic coffin, down there in the sea, gives place to a picture of a child, happy, safe, at peace on the breast of God the Father. Let science gnaw her husks. The Lord is the shepherd of those we've "loved and lost awhile,' and His rod and His staft shall comfort us. THE WOMEN SATISFYING in the extreme must be the news of the recent Colorado election to the adherants of equal suffrage. The women have the antis "Look at the women of Colorado, they haven't cleaned up that lair of 'the beast'." But that cry now is the crv of yesterday. It has been answered. Backed by the women of larly appealed m his tight against corruption. Judge Ben B. Lindsey was re-elected as one of the citizens' ticket by a vote which swept every ward in the city. The citizens' ticket won by at least 20,000 majority over the democratic ticket and from 5000 to 7000 over the republicans. Head ed by Henry Arnold for mayor, Lindsey 's associates were opposed to both the republican and democratic machines. The campaign was the most bitter in the city's history. Lindsey made a strong appeal to tho women of the city to vindicate him against the attacks of his foes and they gave his party victory for his full ticket in every division of the city, even down to the last alderman. During the past two months Jackson county has lis tened to attacks on equal suffrage bv a candidate for the state legislature. Particularly bitter have been his refer ences to the women of Colorado, who have the ballot, and of which state he was a former resident. These attacks have certainly been rebuked, if not silenced, by the results of Tuesday's balloting at Denver. The women of Color jado have "made good." SCHOOL FAILURES. THE report of the county superintendent of schools in the eighth grade uniform examinations again calls attention to the astonishingly low averages made by stu dents. ' Out of 221 taking the examinations, 120, or 57 per cent, passed in all subjects, 02 were conditioned in one or two subjects, 33 failed outright, and only 8, or .3 percent, made an average of 90 percent or more. An average in all branches of 80 percent is required to pass. The largest number failed in arithmetic, with spelling second and geography third. These figures do not cover the Medford schools, which will be reported later. As the figures in other grades at other examinations have shown a corresponding low average throughout the state, it is evident that something is the matter with the school system. COMMUNICATION.
