Apropos, us to Hie robbery tit In dependence, does it not tench a les son.? iSo ninny peoplo curry fifty, :n hundred or more dollars about them, others hide it nbout their houses or in Rome secret out of the way place. This will never do as our .country comes in closer anU inoroJrequont communication with .the other parts of the world. It wus.all well enough in the old hou cst days when thieves wero pro digles, but tho very reputation of keeping or carrying money nbout .you is dangerous nowadays in tliiek ly.sottled neighborhoods. Old Moss .Back; won't trust a bank and hides Jiis on tho premises. Some night Jio is visited, tied ton chair and live conls uro put on his bare (oet to .make hinwdlscloso his hiding place, Kir he Is followed as ho leaves town, knocked down and searched. For .ono .who loses money on n bank failure a thousand lose by acting as their own bankers. Deposit your Jittlocnsh with your banker. Draw 3'our own checks which arc good us receipts wiben honored. Your auoney is really doubled so far as oornmunlty is concerned, for your checks puss onto or twice. A thous .audisuiall deposits uro better to tho .bank and the .public than one or two big ones. Your banker likes to Jiaveyour little deposit, no matter how .rich ho tuny be for it shows .confidence. Muuypeoplo any, "Oh, inylittlo.suin Is ,uo matter." They nro mistaken: The "many littles make ji igxent mueklo" us tho Scotch haveiL 1IA1IY ACT. In reference to the pleading of tho "baby net" ho often sneori ugly al luded to whenever a debtor refuses to pay a debt barred or whenever an accused .parson pleads tho statute of limitations wo lmvo this to say. Tho supremo wisdom of this nation .embodied in It highest court at Washington, .by the imouths of its MurshullH, its McLeans, Washlug itons, Chusi and Wait hns nioro than onco declared that tho pro uunptlon U always tint delayed claims and accusations .wo frauds .mid tho work of villaltiH and con spirators; that this presumption may bo overthrown, of course j that hut for such Just Jtiwsus tlnj statutes of limitations, society must soon bo in au uproar and ihut no good clll zou ought to denounce or sneer at those who plead tho act as against tluwa who have proliably waited until lme hns destroyed all tho tes timony of defendants and then !onie crawling Into courts with their scoundrel claims and complalnta. Ono i'nuwo plainly how vory easy It Is for unscrupulous Krsous to create cases long after some transaction occurred and all tho paper and oyo wltiicttsca liMVo disappeared nnd put tho most innocent to cruel Ineon veiiloncobut for that most Just and wholosoniu of all laws, tin? statute of llmltutloiw.

Tho Puclfic Farmer mukes a strong plea for tho Chinese pheas ant. Wo know nothing about it, but wo do know that, except the English sparrow, most birds are useful. The catbird is tho especial detestation of small minded raisers of sour cherries. Wo have scon a whole region desolated by th6 tent caterpillar of its trees saved by the introduction of a few cherry trees which culled the catbirds. A pair of catbirds will in a few hours de stroy right and left hundreds of cat erpillars nests. During a few weeks these birds consume cherrios. Such birds as quail and pheasants destroy during the year nearly all the injurious insects in tho fields around them. But ono colony of English sparrows will drive away all other birds in the neighborhood save the jays and screech owls. It is said that these little owls will con sume the sparrows at night and are the only means of keeping them down. Wo know that whenever the sparrows are allowed to come every song bird disappears and that a small number of them will destroy a largo field of wheat. In England bovs are hired to kill them and the expense of keeping them thinned out is quite a large item. In ten years a few pair introduced in an Eastern town have spread their kind over tho whole union. Moody never said a truer tiling than this the other evening at San Franckce: "Were the Son of Man to reappear on earth as he did near ly two thousand years ago, again there would bo no room for him in tho hotels and he must lie outside. No town or state would want him and most churches would refuse to admit him." The Catholic directory just pub lished shows that the total Roman Catholic population of tho U. S. is a little over eight million souls, or nearly one-eighth of the entire pop ulation. Truly a marvelous growth since ono century ago when it was but fortv four thousand or but about one-eightieth of tho then popula tion. Tin: Oregonian is severe. It comes down heavily on Asteria: "And besides, if no vessel ever came up to Portland, still tho interests of Astoria would demand that pilot charges on tho bar be reduced and tho protected nest of pirates that have their headquarters there be broken np." J'Go," said my uncle Toby as he raised tho window. "Go! Why should I destroy thee? The world is wido enough for thee and me." lie opened his hand and let the fly es capeSterne, in Trlstam Shandy. In Franco it is said that Boulan ger will bo at tho head of atlairs. tub iioirror.'s act. Editor Capital Journal In 8CVemi tno Btlltca 0f this Union certain acts hnvo been passed pre sumably to protect communities ngatnst quacks, but In reulity to fuvor one school of quacks against all others.: the oldest school, tho most conservative school, tho most wooden-headed school nnd there fore tho most respectable school. "Ho is ono iof tho Regulars, you know." "Anything may happen in tho course of time," says old Herodotus. But just whut length of time It will tako to give certainty and firm re liability to ono modo of medical prnctice, "Is more than any feller can find out," as Dundreary said. It must bo about thirty years, to judgi from tho oldest school of quacks, for that school would to day halo to tho penitentiary if not to tho gallows any of tholr own or another school, who would daro to practice openly in accordauco with their own standard practice thirty years before they began to ask for protection by legislation. Wo are not so old but. that we can yet got around without crutches, nnd wo can avail tho time whon tho greatest practitioners of tho only true genuine old Jacob Tonwsond's Snrsaparlllu school of regulars reg ularly blcd,"bllstorcd and salivated and opiated every caso thor camo to. If that did not kill thopatlont, who lay in u room purposely mado air tight, gasping for Inhibited cold water as badly as Dives In hell, liu munso dosos of whisky and bark wore administered. If ho recovered It was regarded as u miraule and tho doctors got all tho urudit. Sloknoss nuddoath following after wero re garded as of course, unless tho doc tor saved. And who rvoovored was for months or years a poor broken Invalid. All this hns been changed. These changes wero as much forced upon that imperious school as was American independence upon tho British Despot George the Third. It was forced upon them by the Homceopnthists and Eclectics, by the schools of iiffinitessiinal doses and of "roots and yarbs." Long before that school would abandon its deadly, fatal practices, its great est names had boldly declared, "wo have dono more harm than good,' as Astley Cooper exclaimed at a convention of them, and no ono said him nay. When tho disease now called typhoid fever first mani fested in tho' Eastern states nnd Ohio valley tho greatest, most re nowned practitioners of that school slayed those fever patients rightand left as fast as they visited them. Soon they observed that the few typhoid-patients that escaped were treated by those who gave no medi cine. This hint they gladly accepted from tho quacks as they have all of their most cfl'cctual remedies. We would advise our legislature to be exceeding warry how they go into the business of aiding tho busi ness of orders of men, of professions or traders. Under tho pretext of guarding the innocent nobodies the cunning schemers of several some bodies are forwarded. Don't do it. If there is ono profession on earth that the whole people are more deep ly interested in than- any other in these states it is that of The Law, for tho simple reason that their judges must be men "learned in tho law ;" that their rights and liberties depend often on the judjje's wisdom; that one branch of this great general government Is the judiciary and is the inheritance of that profession, and that by custom tho legislative Branch is that Profession also, and yet wo leave that body in which all arc so deeply interested, the Bar, to bo entered by almost every and nuy one who has tho etrrontery to call himself a lawyer we' allow that nursery of ono, if not of two Branches of all our glorious galaxy of governments as well as of the national, to become tho harborage for all sorts of pretenders, without character or learning, honor or fidel ity, to rub against the most worthy and elevated of its memberhood. If wo can do that wo can surely leave all other occupations to their natural development. Doctor. OCCIDENTAL JOTTINGS.
