If it is cowardly for the strong to op-

good nature and generosity of the strong.
There can be tyranny in both ways.

THE idea which some people entertain
of earning idleness is, of working
far too hard in one narrow groove for a
series of years that they may have the
delight of working no more for the rest
of their lives-is absolutely confuted by
all experience. 1t has been tried re-
peatedly with the same result. The sud
den change from too close and monot-
onous work to none at all is invariably
disastrous, and many lives have been
rendered unhappy and shortened in con-
sequence.

If mans opinion is in no process of
change whatsoever, it must be dead,
valueless and hurtful. Opinion is the
offspring of that which is itself born to
grow; which being imperfect must grow
or die. Faith is the root, belief the tree,
and opinion the foliage that falls and
is renewed with the seasons.

briefly of mind, so that one always knows
what he is about and what he means to

it, since it is rained down from heaven
at our very doors, or rather within them.

oh. No. BE wasn,t Afraid

This particular boy has just come to
Detroit to live, and. he went to the high
school for a preliminary examination,
and he.went along with just note of
introduction from his mother. You
know boy at fourteen is usually all
arms and all legs and self sufficiency,
and this one was no exception to the
rule He wasn't troubled with any
doubts about his studies, but his mother
was. She took the role of the figurative
hen who futters on the brink when her
ducklings go in to swim.
Well, when the duckling came home
he staggered in and told his family in
an offhand manner that it was all right,
you know. Then his mother quizzed
him as to details, and asked him if he
didn't feel badly about going there alone,
and when he said no to that she ex-
pressed her surprise, and then her So1on
ended the discussion.

see, knew that I knew what knew,

The latest news from Washington is
not very encouraging to those who are
looking for liberal appropriations for the
Columbia river. Git said that collector"
Holman has offered to reduce the expend-
itures $3.50, 100000 in return for being
made chairman of the committee on ap-
propriations. Among the items he pro-
poses to cut off is the river and harbor
bill. If this program is carried out
Oregon will suffer more than any other
state. Itmay be true, as Senator Frye
says, that there are too many public
works in progress and too much damage
to follow such course, for congress to
refuse to appropriate for these measures,
but it will not be at all surprising if the
partisan clamor against the last congress
for its 'extravagance" in making such
appropriations as Oregon needs and
which all the states that shared in them
deemed as necessary as we did. should
have its effect, and no river and harbor
bill be passed this session.

twenty-five thousand ladies of Boston
have determined to close all stores and
places of business employing female
help, after O'Clock p. m. They have
entered into an agreement to do no
shopping after that hour and hope by
this means to relieve their working sis
ters from excessive hours. This is an
entirely practical way of meeting this
unnecessary evil. When customers cease
buying goods at unreasonably late hours
merchants will have no inducements to
keep open and clerks will reap. the bene-
fit of shorter hours.

Riley a. a scotch Tradesman.
Eugene Field in the chicago News.


James Whiteomb Riley wentto Europe
last summer. On the return voyage an
incident happened which is we'll worth
telling. To beguile the tediousness of
the voyage it was proposed to give a
concert in the saloon of the ship-an
entertainment to which all capable of
amusing their fellow-voyagers should
contribute. Mr.. Riley was asked to
recite some of his original poems, and,
of course, he cheerfully agreed to do So.
Among the number present at this mid
ocean entertainment, over which the
Rev. Myron Reed presided, were two
Scotchmen, very worthy gentlemen en-
route from the land O. cakes to the land
of biscuits upen tour of investigation.
The twain shared their enthusiasm with
which the auditor applauded Mr.. Riley's
charming recitations. They marveled
that so versatile genius could have
arisen in land reputed for uncouthness
and savagery.
els It no wonderful 'DonaP - remarked
one of these Draw Scots, "that trades
man sud be sic bonnie poet?"
'And is he indeed a tradesman?'

him as the hoosie poet? Just think of
it, mon-just think O sic guide poet

We clip the following from an eastern
paper, and it is as true in Oregon as in
Ohio: Farmers sometimes envy men
who live ia cities and manage vast en-
terprises which yield them great wealth.
But the farmer often gets out of his
farm what the rich man cannot buy.
Mr.. j. d. Rockefeller is said to have the
largest income of any man in America,
but during the last summer he has
worked diligently on an Ohio farm,
blowing, planting, saving wood, show
cling earth for roadways and gathering
in the harvest. After four months OF
this life he has changed from what
threatened to be physical wreck to a
healthy man. After all, there is no
more independent, and in many res
poets, no more attractive life, than that
of prosperous tarmer.'

Portland is considerably excited over
alton is going to double the assessment
of Multnomah county. The Oregonian
is out with an earnest protest that is
just about as weak in the line of argu-
ment as anything can well be. The fact
that Multnomah pays one-th:rd of all
the state tax has nothing to do with the
case. 1t is simply a question of what
that county ought to pay as it's just and
equitable proportion. The OregoniGn
threatens to bring the matter into the
courts, in case the assessment is dou-
bled. We hope such threats will not
deter the board from doing its duty. 1t
has long been notorious that property
in Portland has been assessed out of all
proportion to it's true value and no one
has exposed the iniquity more vigor
ously than the Oregonian itself. A
prominent member of the state board is
reported to have said that 'the reports
of all other counties show that they have
been assessed at so to 70 per cent. of the
full cash value, and all counties will be
raised up to full cash value.' The board
is of the opinion that Multnomah is
assessed lower than any property of
the same nature in the state" If
this is true the board will not be doing
its duty if it does not raise the assess
ment of Multnomah to an equality with
the other counties:

JeH Davis Was Well Treated IS . Cap
tive, Gen. Miles Says.
CHICAGO, Feb. Tn the memoirs Of JEFF
ferson Davis, recently published by his
widow, many pages are devoted TO de-
scription of the 'stortures of Fortress Mon
roe" in which district General Miles, now
head of the Division of the Missouri, was
in command at the time Davis
was imprisoned there. Mrs. Davis
charges General Miles with cruelty
TO the president OF the Confederacy.
He is charged with Stacking Davis by
brutal force, keeping him in a yermin- in
tested cell, withholding his clothes and
linen. and making souvenirs OF his pos
sessions, even TO his hair, when he had it
cut
General Miles was interviewed today in
regard to the matter. He said he did not
mind the attack ..Of course y he added
Mrs. Davis feels bitter towards me, as
she probably does towards many
more Northern soldiers. While caring
nothing at all for anything she may say
or write, / would call your attention TO
the fact that Jefferson Davis managed to
survive my cruel treatment and lived
twenty years after, finally dying of old
age. That would hardly have been the
case, / think. if he had been subjected 10
such horrible abuses. There is not a parti-
Gle of truth in the statements made BY his
wife The fact is. Jefferson Davis never
was in better trim in his life than when he
was liberated"
