A CHEERFUL LIAR.
"If one-half Is true that Is said about
the menu that Is set before the con
-.'lets In the State Penitentiary. Mer-
-111 and Tracy, the escaped outlaws,
-an be scarcely blamed for escaping
'rom prison. Mep In Baker' county,
ho have recently been released from
he Penitentiary, tell some, hard tales
i bout the prison, bill of fare. Of course
t la not always good judgment to take
the word of an ex-convict without due
illowance, but -there Is a surprising
lnanlmlty about these stories, and
hey are ' corroborated f from t bther
-sources. Yt Is said that the able-bod
;ed men who do hard labor fofi ten
tours a day make their breakfast on
eans alone and are allowed no meat.
Visitors to the prison say they have
een. men go to work mornings stag
gering from sheer, weakness.
If these? stories be true, and It
seems reasonable' to believe that they
ire, the State Penitentiary should be
Investigated. Ample, not to say lib
ral, appropriations are annually
pade by the Legislature for the main
tenance of the prison as well a for
other Institutions, and If the bill of
fare Is as poor as It is said to be there
must be a big graft for somebody,
somewhere, somehow,
rThe; iniquitous fee . system by
whtchT! the slender salaries off all
Oregort atate offltfals are augmented
is In a measure rsponsible for this;
but , the "Salem hog" and the eternal
Salem habit of grafting-Is 'more .go.1
Pendleton East Oregonlan. .
Here is a cheerful liar, and more ma
licious than cheerfuL If the writer in
.he " Pendleton East Oregon! an should
visit the Penitentiary he, would find a
rarprising unanimity" about, the stories
of all the men confined there. Out
side of the accidental criminals, such
n those sent there for manslaughter
he would' find all of them 'Innocent"
every one.. He would find them a
really excellent lot ; of men, sadly 'im
rosed upon by designing outside . par
ties and badly treated by their keep-
rs. -
What relation exists between , the
contention for flat salaries for -the
4tate officials and ihe beans supplied
to the convicts In . . the Penitentiary,
perhaps Is incapable of explanation by
any one ther than the cheerful ! (and
malicious) liar of 'the East Oregonlan.
The convicts at the Oregon , Penrten-
tiary do not fare as luxuriously as the
guests atjthe Portland Hotel. They
lo not have as many courses. But
thejhave an ample supply of substan-
tlaf food, in as great variety as many
of the hard working laboring people of
this state, who obey the laws and help
to pay the faxes tfr support the instl
utlon. . .- .'
The j suspicions concerning the "big
graft" is worthy of the spirit in which
the article Is wrMen. There is" no
thing In it. The money appropriated
Is honestly expended. The appropria
tions for the support of the Penitenti
ary have not been liberal. Some re
forms are necessary in the government
of the Penl tentlary, or at least some
are desjrable; but they are not point
ed out by the cheerful (and malicious)
liar of the East Oregontan. i 1
COARSE FOOD.
Many modern , improvements
are
found, after a test, to be no Improve
ment. iFlour makfng was revolution
lied by-the Introduction of the "roller
process, whereby the grain la crushed
lo an' impalpable powder between pol-
Ished sheet rollers. Instead of ground
between millstones. But It I begin
ning to appear that this great improve
ment is not without Its drawbacks.
Ground flour Is granulated, and under
the microscope the flour grains- are
readily seen whereas the fine roller
flour now commonly on tfie market is
simply dust. The old fashioned coatse
bread, made f rom stone-grouod flour, j
required mastication, and there was al
chance for - the saliva to act on the I
starch; but the fine bread -of today Is J
hurriedly swallowed and the starch is I
not properly converted.
The object -In these.days Is to pro
duce the finest and whitest bread pos
sible, though both fineness and white-
neM argue against hfeath. Even gra-
made by the roller
process, and it has degenerated into a
pasty substance filled wlthT bran
very insult to the memory of Sylvester
Graham, Just as the ; fussy 'Morris
chairs" of 1902 are enough 'to make
William Morris restless in his grave.' .
Why do darkies as a rule have such
splendid feeth? Mostly because they
have lived on coarse food, which made
demands on the teeth. - People as a
rule now do not want to do. any chew
ing. They demand meat which Js so !
tender that it will melt In the mouth.
etc. , Nature, prodigal as she la, never
bestows anything where It Is not ua?d;
and the results Is that the civilised
races are losing their teeth. 5 If the
style continues to forbid our teeth to
do any grinding our progeny of say
2905 A. D. will be-born toothless, or I
with only rudimentary teeth. As in
dividuals we cannot grow good teeth
in' our heads by eating coarse food. We
are beginning te get bad teeth by her
edity. But there Is almost no tooth
or bone-forml.ig material In "fine white
flour - and tbe voidance of coarse foods
undoubtedly hastens the away-going
of our teeth." Perhaps the millers and
the dentists are in a secret league to
work, for,., mutuaf Interests. Who
knows? . v . . '
MORE HOGS.
Diversified farming has come to the
front in the Willamette valley. Edu
cational work has had much todo with
bringing this about, but a good market
for. diversified farm products has been
the most efficient of aU causes. The
farmers of the jiilamette valley can
raise almost any agricurtural product
of the temperate zone and they can
be depended upon to produce anything
for which a reliable market at pro
fitable prices is assured, v We havt
made the statement before and wt
expect to make t a good many times.
that the one thing which would do
more than all else to increase the pro
duction of hogs in Oregon would be
an assurance that hogs will sell la
Portland at Chicago prices. . Hogs dc
not i bring, Chicago prices in Portland
now. but or some time past the price
has been high enough here to encourage
farmers to raise hem and the1 number-
grown-In the state is now incras-
lng very fast. Oregon Agriculturist.
The Statesman has been advocatlns:
the raising of more bogs for a long time.
They are a part f diversified farming.
They go with the dairy. The dairy, is
the wet nurse of the piggery. There
are bound to be more and more hogs
raised here In the valley, as a matter
of course, and there will in time ht
packing houses here or in Portland
probably in both places -ready to take
care of all the hogs raised, jan'd at
prices as high as paid in. Chicago.. -
SUPERSTITION AND MEATS
!
The Thirteen Club gave a dinner re
cently In New York In honor of the
Vegetarian Club. The Thirteen Club
exists for the purpose of defying super
stition and eating dinners. Is its stand
ing treat for the vegetarians evidence
of lts be,ler that the eafin pf meaft
causes superstition or Is a superstitious
practice? There' could be great fighting
on the point. Meateatlng seems to have
been a religion - and ceremonial act in
the early history of man.' He -'has to
be considerably advanced in the pas-
w'
toral stage before he can ; afford . the
luxury of beef and mutton. In dim ages
upon which a little light is occasional
ly thrown by the comparative study of
savage custom, thertrlbe' solemnly sac
rificed animals once a year, drinking
the blood as a pledge of community of
blood. As times grew easier, the taste
for choos and steaks was developed.
Sacrifices became more . f reo,uenL Peo
ple got to killing A-critter for the sake
of eating it and sacrifice was the mask
of gluttony. Eren now there are tribes
that, weep when they have to kill their
oxen or buffaloes; and they try to propi
tiate them by , telling them that It is
somebody else that kills them.
Meateatlng may have sprung from
primitive : religion, - which those who
choose may , call superstition, ; but how
does superstition spring from meat-1
eating? If it Is true that the Egyptian j
priests might not eat beans; nor could j
the Pythagoreans, those students of the
mystic power of numbers, against
which the Thirteen. Club is a protest.
But beef In the hoof Was sacred fn
Egypt; and tho monstrous fabric of j
Hindoo mythology Is a monument of
vegetarianism. t?o are the puerilities
of Chinese Buddhism arid geomancy,
"wind-water" bred of flee.
The highly respectable practice of
cannibals has een misunderstood and
maligned. Cannibalism arose from a
mistake of 'primitive science and psy
chology. A man ets a man to get his
courage strength ability. Just as he eats j
the heart of a lion to tone up his fight-
lng qualities. The Bechauahas used to
have a strong distaste for man-eating.
They needed It in their business, but it I
was a dose anil not a luxury. An un
sound medical theory, not worse than
many others, and having nothing to u.
with superstition. . The Chinese will
pickle a tiger in alcohol, then .drink
the alcohol to get the tiger's strength.
Or a deer, to get the deer's swif tness.
Too much meat may poison the" liver
and kidneys and so lead to gloomy
fanatical views of religion; but to wnat
ventoslties.of metaphysics might not a
man be brought . by living on - baked
beans alone! The vegetarians have a
plausible theory taken In moderation:

THE FIGHTING EDITORS.
They have some men at-Seattle, a p-J

desperado will not be taken without a
battle in which some one other than
himself will get hurt. The realiza
tion of this fact was originally due at

It is noticed tha the fighting editors
down 'at Portland have .become' brave

ot afford a salary roll on such a fancy
scale as that, and If she proceeds on

will be bankrupt. She has a smaller
population than Alabama, and that
tate finds $3,000 enough to pay a Gov

-It is noted that of the graduates of

i'ny other profession. The fact Is cited
an evidence of the higher grade of

probably it means nothing more' than
ihat there are now a much larger num
