WEEKLY OREGON STATESMAN, TUESDAY! MARCH; 13. 1900. The Child's Eyes HERMAN W. BARR, 118 State St. Scientific OptlcUt THE RIGHT TO VOTE WHAT IS REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN PRIMA HIES. f fjueatioaa to BAlclThVWb Offer to Take Part d the Oath t Be Admlalatcrcd. ! j .; Editor Statesman: The coming rei publican primary election will be held March 2t, 1000, in the several precincts in Marion county. The question a&td who tias a right to vote at such election has been discussed in every precinct, j In order that no contusion may arise I have endeavored to gain, from all sources, the necessary information, and I feel satisfied that the following will cover all points that will come up for decision by, the judges, in precincts regulated by the primary law, as well as precincts where open primaries arc conducted: '' " ':?"'.' No one should be allowed to" vote who i npt a republican, or will, undef cjalh, say that lie! will affiliate with the republican party, and support its ticket at the ensuing general election. This is right. No member of any party has a right, legal or moral, to participate in any primary election of another party. -Otherwise, men, with no good lintent to the parties holding the prim jaries, might interest themselves and assist in electing a delegation which i would prove detrimental to that party's i interest. j ' j (" Section 16 of the Australian ballot ' law is very clear as to residence. There is a widespread idea that thirty days residence in a precinct entitles one to vote. Such is not the case. JScction 5 of the primary la w clearly j defines this right. ! 'l ' The- following questions suggest themselves as being proper to ask any erson whose right to vote is , chal enged; ' . i ' First 'Are you a republican? If not, will yon support the republican-" ticket at the ensuing-general election? j Second Have you voted at any primary election this year? (See" sec tion 6 of primary law) i Third Has your vote been rejected at any primary election this year? (See section 7; primary law). ; . Fourth Are ..you a bona fide resident of this precinct? (See section 6 of primary law). I Fifth -Will -you be a legal Voter in this precinct at the ensuing ! general election? ('See section 2 of article 2 of constitution). j The following oath is to be admin istered when an elector is challenged: "Vou do solemnly swear (or affirm) you will fully and truly answer all questions that shall be put to you touch ing your place of residence and qualifi cations to vote at this election? (Sec section 7, primary law).- ! I KARL RACE. PARIS JOURNAL TORS. AND EDI- " In Paris the identification of a jour nal with its editor and chieff writers is complete. In the brilliant days of the July monarchy nobody thought of th presse or the constituttonnel; these -were ,mere counters, and liardly that; people thought of Emile'de Gir ardin and Adolphe Thiers they pro vided educated men with their poli tics, as somewhat later cn t Sainte Beuve and Jules Janin provided" them with their literary ideas. When the republic .was founded Gambetta start ed the Rcpublique Francaise, and though it had many able j writers. France identified that journal with the great orator, and millions accepted its every utterance as oracular. To quote a lesser instance.

HOW TO MAKE 'LIFE HAPPY. Take time; it is no use to fume or fret or do as the .angry housekeeper who has got hold of the wrong key. and pushes, shakes and rattles it about in theslock until both are broken , and the door t-still unopened. j The chief secret ol comfort; fiei not suffeYinar trifle to vex us.' and cultivating out undergrowth of small " pleasures. - '- Try to regard present vexations j as you will regard them a month fcence.

Some time ago a noted New Eng ender came to the capital for the pur pose of transacting some business.! it matters little what, before one of the departments, says Leslie's Weekly; It was necessary to obtain the co-operation of various members of congress and senators. Together With his at torney he made a call cn a certain dis tinguished soloh who was 'most cordial, greeting the visiting Yankee as though 4ie were - his long-lost brother: he grasped him cordially by the hand, Neither teachers nor parents can afford to neglect the child's eye visual sense. "Cross eyes" with children are frequently the result of muscular weak ness that may be overcome by wear ing the right kind of glasses for a short time..'.'

Everything he 'asked the senator to do was most willingly acceded to. and the amiable politician proposed to do even more than ws requested of him. "There was nothing the matter with the proect he said; t'ci course he would instruct his secretary to do so and so. and he would ; himsflf do so and so. The man from Yankeedom felt as if his object were obtained. "Fine, fine." he remarked to his companion,, on . leaving the senator. "Nonsense," responded that worthy. "Divide that bv a hundred and you will find out just what that man will do, if be does anything. He 13 a joi ner, and, while he partially means what he says, never gets the time to carry out his promises. He has a passion, however, lot . making people feel good." ; ' Their next visit iwas on Senator Frye, who was pleasant but business like, and wasted no time in compli ments. When the matter was present ed to him he asked some - terse ques tions. "Your project is a good one," he eaid, finally. "L-wnl see the secre tary. -i ' . . "I congratulate yon old man," re marked the lawyer to bis client when they reached the pavement. "I con gratulate yoa; your case is practically won." ; . : ' "What do you mean?" asked his friend. "I am utterly : discouraged. MrJ Frye did not seem to take near as much interest as i Senator Blank, and he is the one I most depended upon." "Nonsense, nonsense," - responded his companion. ; "If Mr. Frye says he will do a thing it is done. His w-ord is , as good as another - man's oath." And that, indeed isjthe general reputa tion, of the senior senator from Maine. S1LVEBT0N I nACHCBS MEET. An Excellent Program and a Profit oble cession Two Noted Salem Educators Were Present. The regular monthly teachers meet ing at Silverron. yesterday, was well attended and the' sessions were both profitable and interesting. About twenty-five active teachers were present. At the ?Jternoon .session a goodly num ber of the citizens were in attendance. State Supt. J. H. Ackerman and Prof. W. J. Crawford, of this city, were there and speak very highly of the treatment they reoehied at the Ivands of tJie teachers and citizens of Silverton. Sipt. Ackerman addressed 'the meet ingjon the fjeneral progress of educa tion! in this state. Professor Crawford read a well prepared paper on "Man ners in school." Prof. J. C.,C. Lewis presided gracefully, and announced a program for vbe next meeting four weeks hence Excellent music was furnished bv local singers. Taken all together, the meeting was a success. When Good Stomach, one of the Sioux Indians with the Nouveau Cirque in Paris, was picked up in the street drunk and inarticulate, the police spent the time in which he was sobering up in hunting all over the city and sur rounding country for an interpreter of the Sioux language. They did not find one. j When the noble red man re gained the, mastery of his vocal chords it was foind that he spoke nothing but English.

HAD A SYSTEM OF HIS OWN. How Former. Congressman - Peters Taught School in a Missouri Town. "iMason Peiters, who served -one term from the second Kansan district in congress, and came back to Kansas City to organize a big live stock , firm on entirely new lines, is about : the most congenial product of this Sci tion," said the man who knows every body. "Peters was a Missouri school teacher and his methods have never been excelled for originality in stdry or stage comedy. "Plattsburg, Mo., had about 2,000 inhabitants an - 1877 and Peters taught the fourth gnwJe of the school. Oi course there : was supposed to be1 a regular course of study, for Peter's. scholars were prepared to enter the principal's room. There were, accord ing to the rules laid down by theLthe use of field deputies -, U J --a - ; ; 1 ' TT" xr,. . school board and (principal, so many flours to te oevotedi to grammar, so many -to rhetoric, history, algebra, etel But to no one of these rules did Peters pay the slightest heed. "The firsTday school opened he an nounced that his room would study grammar. He made a short talk to the pupils, in the course of which he opened, his grammar and -making , a quick calculation, said: 'You cught to get to syntax in one month. If you do we will declare Tuesday, Oc tober 1, a holiday, and I'll treat Nothing but grammar was taught in that room for one solid month. The children spread the mews and as the iond parents in a country town know more about how the public school should be run than the school board and the teachers, a howl went up that set the entire community by the ears. The school board and principal made a feeble remonstrance, but Peters in sisted that he would teach the room his own way or he wouldn't teach it at all. and won out. i"Whei the month iwas out the grammar class stood an examination that was a marvel. Peters made a speech and announced a holiday, but toetf ore adjournment for the day he spread his treat. It consisted of huge baskets of grapes, nuts and bananas. i "You can run this whole thing to suit yourselves," he laughingly spoke. "I am out; ol it for an hour." He then left the room and the children he!d high carnival. Most of them scattered nuts and grape skins all over the floor and the room was a sight to ktehold. A few of j the children had carefully piled their rape skins and hulls on newspapers and left them on their desks but4 they were conspicuous ex ceptions. This was just what Peteri had anticipated.- and when he again rapped : for order he made another" short; speecfu "I just wanted to find out the children that had "been prop erly taught at home and which ones h?,jj grown i up like cattle," he . -said. "Now. there is Johnny Jaes. who has a good father and a good mother, but ber have reared Him like a Hotten tot." tAnd in that way he want down the lisr complimenting certain children on their teaching at home end crit icising the others, .lust what sort of a commotion that kind of a lecture world create in a small town can be imagined. There was indignation cn the one side and applause on the oth er, but Peters again won out. "He took rhetoric and algebra by spasms of one month each, with a va cation "following .when the task was ccmpleted. One .time the children would go fishing and at another nut hunting. At the -end of the year he : had env-rn ux! lull holldavS and iwa tauelit the riom more ' successfully than it had eer been taught before Kansas Cityf Star. ? i.- 1 - , I - 1 1 I SHEL S PAPER.

ThCiOrieinal speech, fli'e true prarm eval toneue of man. .was quite? unlike any language we have ever heard; tyet we have all talked it. and all its ele ments tare present in the tongues! of tcday. The primeval language j was a -fjwel lansruaare altocether: it had 1 no consonants, or contracts, as weL oujght to call theni. at all. Its words consist ed of vowaf sounds following each oth er repeated or varied of words ike acaea, aoao, aia, auau, aeoia, iaua, oioi, ouou, uaua. ueUe, all of -which i I may say in passing are taken from 1 a lan guage in ,use today. The scptertces were intermittent streams of Rowels, each stream held on so long as the speaker's -breath allowed or whim -dictated. When all literature was f ceiled, the same consideration, the capacity of the lungs, determined the length of the bardic lines; so we have our shlokas, our hexameters, our Alexahdrines arid so forth, each a lungful of I verse: in the primeval tongue it was likewise, but the sentences were vowels only. There are about ten or a dozen pure vowels to go upon, and vowel; words may run up to five syllables, 'so we have a very considerble -fund to draw on for. our vowel streams. And these streams oi vowel speech, correspond to and expressed streams of emotion or feeling rather than descriptions 6f con crete objects. tFor we hardly i realize how terribly overladen with material trifles our life is today, and, therefore, what great demands we make on lan guage for concrete words. But our exclamations, -each o which indicate a single emotion, tend to remakv pure Vowel sounds even at the present day. The Contemporary. i THE EARLY GARDEN. With most of the garden crot9 it 1 of no advantage to sow or. plant until the soil is well warmed up and the danger from frost is past, there are a few crops that can stand considerable cold and should be sown at the first favorable opportunity. With no crop at any time it is advisable to fow or plant until the soil has been prepared in a good tilth. , I . A good condition of the soil is es sential to secure a good germination of the seed and a thrifty start ta grow. One of the essential items with veget ables is t6 have them crisp and; tender, and a quick, vigorous growth is quite a factor in securing this. In the gar den more than in any other part of the farm it is necessary to bave the soil rich and worked.deep. In many cases the powing and manuring can be done during the winter, so that earbjf in the spring, as soon as the soil is dry enbugh to work readily a ; few ! of the hardier early crops like onions, lettuce, the early hard peas, radishes, beets and spinach, may be sown in rhe open ground.- With " the exception of the lettuce and spinach the better plan is to sow in long rows, wide 'enough Salem Land postofiice, six miles south of Salem; acres mixed fruit; good house, barn) 'Price low. 1 ' ' Salem on daily mail route, clo-p to At that price it is almost a gift.

With both "lettuce and radisliei it is usually a good plan to. sow two varieties, one a little latier than the oth er, as in this way a supply can be kept .up with less trouble than by two" sow ings; as early in the spring it is .not al ways possible to sow when it is the best to maintain- a good supply. Onions, lettuce and spinach need lit tle covering, just so5the seed. is cov ered. Beets and radishes should be covered about one inch. Early peas two inches.
