This olomJoint of "cussodnoss." of

or, at least that the. crowas who had
oaten iihls dlntiera?and had been
amused at his expense during tho time
of his affluence, no-longer knew him,

That Is about tho way of tho world,
and tho wlso man will not be taken

Whon failure came to showman. Bar

bo used by men and moulded by en

Ho knew that thore were opportuni

strong matt can make opportunities

There Is hardly a man In any com
munity but to whom hours will come
that aro black with trouble and tempta
tions to despair. What a dreary
world it would bo If men gonerally
went under In tho hour of distress and
failure!
The real manly man Is tho .one who
fights It ouf. Ho has had experience
In tho past, and) knows where to look
for snare and pitfalls that beset tho
path of all men. Ho will tread wari

mount higher ground and yet higher,

liberate act of self murder possible.
A merciful coroner's Jury gonerally ad
judges a sulcldo Insane, a verdict
which may solace tho relatives of the
jeaj n many cases, even If It does
not altogether convince. For tho
thought will arise; It this person, so
sane up to tho last, and so carefully
planning every detail of his own de
struction, Is to bo reckoned as Insane,
who then Is freo from the chargo?
Tho thoughtful person will admit
that for one to take his own Hfo is
proof of an unbalanced mind, but the
question may fairly bo asked; Is not
an. donation from following right
principles a sign that the mental or
m0ral standard Is at fault?

that Is right. For panties do rule us,
and If American citizens will 'stick to
party,' then it Is Importantfor all of
us to know what each decides witmn
himself to represent, all ofus or a few
of us, tho common Interests which, oak
for nothing but law, order and fair
play, and pay for these in taxes that
sustain tho state; or thozo special In
terests which seek special favors and
pay for them in brlboV whica corrupt
the state."
More Important even thai? this con
clusion, Mr. Steffens points out that
"Municipal roform, all by Itself, Is Im
possible. Olty government and state
government . aro of one sovereignty,
and, as for corruption, tho city and
the stato aro In one system and the
city man and the 'up-tato man' have
to work together to get what each
needs."
This Is the lesson that both Mis
souri and Illinois have had to learn,
and Its learning bespeaks better con
ditions for both city and state.

After Vatican Exhibit.
Tho Vatican exhibit, sent from
Home by the Papal states to the St.
Iouls exposition, wll probably be re
exhibited at tho 1905 fair next year.
A communication received by- Dan
McAllen from H. H. Dosch, director of
exhibits for tho 1905 falt now In St.
liouls states that there Is a disposi
tion to do so, but that certain formal
ities have to bo gono through with
before tho exhibit can bo obtained.
A roquoft on tho part of Archbishop
Chrlstlo. of tho dlocose of Oregon, that
the exhibit bo resumed "aero Is neces
sary. This has already beon provided
for by tho archbishop, who has com
mUsloned Dr. MacNally, now studj
Ing In Itomo, to wait on Cardinal Mer
ry del Val, papal secretary of stato,
ami formalPji mako tho request In tho
nnmo of tho archbishop nnd the Low
Is and Clark board.
Dr. MacNally has been In Home for
a considerable time, but no word has
boon received trim him on tho sub
Jech Meanwhile tho cominlslon In
chargo of tho oxhlbll havo aparently
not been Informed of Dr. MacNally's
mission, for as yot thoy havo received
no Instructions regarding the removal
to Portland.
Tho Vatican exhibit Is very valu
able and contains things of interest
to ovary ono, oipoclally from a his
toHcnl point of vlow. Archbishop
Christie Is confident It will be brought
hero, but ho does not wish to lntorforo

expects to hear shortly. Orogonlan.
