1T HAS COME TO STAY.

"Repeal the Mckinley law"
was the expressed purpose of the
democracy one year ago-yet,
with $50 majority in the house,
the party made no attempt to re-
peal the act, which they declare is
1.-The sum of all villainies. 1t
would have been just as easy to
pass bill wiping out "the mon
strous iniquity" as one putting
wool on the free list, but none of
the gur-reat democratic leaders
had the hardihood to initiate the
movement. The Mckinley law
has come to stay. 1t may be mod
flied in some particulars by re-
publican congress, as time may
show the necessity of the change,
but 1t will never be repealed by a
democratic congress.-Statesman.

The commission men Of Port

apples for the coming seasons

tion is phenomenally small this
year and there will be no trouble
about a market for good, sound
apples. Quite number of apples
are coming into market now but
they come in all mixed up, big
and little, sound and spotted, in
the same lot, and iail to present
an attractive appearance. If fruit
producers could only turn them
selves into fruit buyers for short
time they would appreciate the
value of attractive packing

natural, because under absolute
despotism the people had been
accustomed to have the state con-
fiscate the individualism of
the citizen, his liberty, his life.
his property, his freedom of choice
to live and move and enjoy his be
ing, but the United States began
a new departure from despotism;
it stepped forward and rested its
new experiment upon individual
ism instead of paternalism for sue
cess, and because of this stimulus
to the development of self-reliant,
self-governing individualism rather
than the paternalism and state So
cialism of Europe, we have in
century passed all other people in
the race for prosperity, peace
and happiness.
The peoples party legislation
proposes that we shall retrace our
steps; we shall surrender all we
have gained and substitute for the
lndividualism that has made
America great, the paternalism
that has made Europe's signing
millions anxious to find under our
banner freedom and a felicity
that is unknown and unattainable
under their own flag.
In word the peoples party is
"Looking Backwards" when every
true American looks up and not
down; forward and not back, and
while ready to lend another a
hand believes in self-support, self
development, the survival of the
fittest by individual effort, rather
than in the survival of the unfit
test through the systematic pater-
nalism and state socialism that
seems to be the impending fate of
Europe.-Seattle P-I.

the stockholders. Forty to fifty

If some of those farmers, who in
speaking of the Oregon state agri-
cultural college, treat that instltu-
ton with sort of contemptuous
sneer, and still cling to the belief
that it is only an agricultural col
lege in theory, of no practical ben
eft to the agricultural community
except as burden of taxation to
keep a lot of professors on fat sal
aries, would only take the trouble
to visit that institution they
might learn something of real
practical value to them; if they
would attend the farmers insti
tutes, and read the bulletins sen
out under the direction of the ex-
pertinent station they might gain
some valuable pointers that would
assist them to raise the mortgages
from off their farms. They only
show ignorance by such assertions.
The agricultural college is doing
more to advance farming and ag-
ricultural interests in this state
and places them upon more pay
ing financial basis than the farm
ers themselves, yet there are peo-
pie in every community who
stand in their own light by trying
to throw cold water upon every
public institution or enterprise
started or to be maintained among
them. 1t seems to be second ma
ture to them tn kick.

WHAT shall we do to be saved
This is an old question, but one
that the people of the United
States must ask themselves seri-
ously. Demagogy is rampant, and
the ignorant and the unfortunate
and are being made to believe that
they are wronged and oppressed,
are being taught that the remedy
they must seek is that of lawless-
ness and anarchy, the reign of mob
rule. It is another sin that the
democratic party has laid upon its
soul: that it encourages this spirit
of rebellion against social order in
its eager chase after votes. Some
of the leading democratic journals
have talked honestly about
the labor riots that have occurred,
and have Joined with the republi-
can press i'll condemning lawless-
ness and scouting as utterly absurd
and inequitable the idea that any
set of men have right to dictate to
others how they should manage
their business or whom they should
employ, or to prevent by force the
employment of men not belong
ing to their combination. These
papers deserve the more credit
that they place the good of society
higher than mere party advantage
and to that extent break away
from their party. But there are
prominent leaders in the demo
cratic party and influential papers,
some of them in our own state,
that have turned their backs upon
the duty they well know they owe
to society, and have encouraged
the men who have committed
deeds of lawlessness and assert the
doctrine of the supremacy through
force of organized labor. These
papers and alleged statesmen
saw in the tragedies at Homestead
and Ceur d'Alene, and the out.
break at Buffalo only chance to
secure democratic votes by dema-
gogic utterances, and were sufici-
emily despicable to seize the oppor
tunity and make the most of it.
With such statesmen and public
educators matters may well be ex-
pected to become worse and worse
until disaster overtakes the nation.
1t is important 10 consider what
we shall do to be saved from the
natural result of such teachings,
without having to correct them
with powder and bullets. There
is but one way, and that is for the
better element of the nation reso-
lutely to set its face against such
doctrines and vote next
November against the party that

Curious Plant Which Guides Travellers

Curious Plant Which Guides Travellers
on the Plains.
The compass plant grows in the
prairies of Western North America,
and, as it's name indicates, is of great
value to the wanderer. 1t is dwarf
variety of the osler, is perennial, attains
usually height of three feet six inches,
and has head of yellow flowers. The
help it renders the traveller arises from
the fact that the long leaves at the base
of the stem, which are placed, not fat
as in plants generally, but in a vertical
position, present their edges north and
south. The peculiar propensity of the
foliage of this plant is attributed to the
fact that both surfaces of it's leaves dis
play an equal receptivity for light. All
the other known varieties of it's class
are characterized by the presence on
the lower surface of their leaves of
from twice to thrice as many respira-
tory vessels as are contained on the up
per surface, which is therefore the
most sensitive of the two to the influ-
ence of light But both surfaces of the
compass plant are clothed alike, with
an epidermis exceptionally receptive of
light; and the same instinct of it's
leaves that prompts them to require an
equal distribution of light upon either
surface causes them to assume a verti-
cal position, and to point their edges
hue north and south. Travellers on
dark nights are said to feel the edges of
the leaves, to ascertain the points of

1t Has Chameleon Power, Many Of Its
Colors Being Brilliant.
The oldest of all piscatorial rarities
is the paradise fish of China Like the
German canary and one or two other
species of bird and fish, this little finny
beauty is the product of cultivation
only, there being no place in the world
where it is found in wild state In
the land of the dragon they are kept
and cultivated in ornamental aquari-
ums, each succeeding generation of the
little oddities exhibiting more diversi-
fed colors. The male is the larger of
the two sexes, measuring, when full
grown, three and one-half inches. The
body is shaped very much like that of a
common pumpkin-seed sun fish, it's
color surprising in brilliancy any fish
heretofore cultivated for the aquarium.
The head of the macropodus (that is his
generic nancy is ashy gray, notified
with irregular dark spots. The gills
are azurine blue, bordered with bril-
liant crimson. The eyes are yellow and.
red, with a black pupil The sides of
the body and the crescent-shaped
caudal fin are deep crimson, the former
having from ten to twelve vertical blue
stripes, while the latter is bordered
with blue. The upper surface of the
body is continually changing color
sometimes it is white, at others gray,
black or blue The dorsal and. anal
fms are remarkably large, hence its
generic name; Macro, large; podus, fin
or foot. Both fins are shaped alike,
and are striped with brown and bor-
dered with a bright blue. The dull
colored ventral fins are protected by a
brilliant scarletrcolored spine, extend
ing three-fourths of an inch behind the
body of the fin. The rectoral fms are
we'll shaped, but transparent and color.

Carried Fully Mile in a Terrible Wind
Storm.
Sin the year 1882, about the latter
part of March, I, with some friends who
were on a visit to me, went out to an
old edifce about two hundred yards
from the house one evening to enjoy
ourselves over game of seven-up.
''When we left the house not one OF
us had the least idea that the bright
rays of the sun would be followed by
the black wings of destruction.
81 remember well, we had been play
ing about two or three hours. had the
ace, deuce, queen and jack of trumps.
My opponent had just thrown down the
ten spot of clubs, and 1 was just in the
act Of taking it with my jack when I
was arrested by a loud, numbering
noise that sounded like the roaring of a
train, but hundred times louder.
81 jumped to my feet and ran to the
door. What 1 saw. as put my head
through the opening will remain with
me to my dying day.
1.-The space above me was as dark as
pitch except when the fash of light.
ming made a little light, and by one OF
these flashes l could see old timbers,
shingles, tree tops and everything i'm.
aginable flying in every direction.
Il sprang to the middle of the room,
clasped my friend to my breast. and
cried: 'We are lost! o God, save us!'
THE words had scarcely left my lips
when, oh, horrors! I saw the top of the
old barn torn from its bed and hurled tc
destruction, folded in the arms of the
mighty destroyer.
THE old logs were being scattered
around me. l felt the floor moving un.
der my feet, everything turned dark,
and l knew no more till opened my
eyes and found the kindly face of the
doctor bending over me.
Il had been hurled over mile from
the old barn, and how got there with
out being killed the reader can best
imagine. Three teeth knocked out, my
left arm and two ribs broken were all
the injuries received.
''On inquiring afterward 1 found out
that my friends never received scratch.
When the top of the old barn was torn
off they ran out in the yard and lay fiat
on the ground, hugging the roots of a
large stump.
ut has been nearly ten years since
that terrible night, and l never see a
cloud rise but I can almost feel myself
being hurled through the air. Atlanta

COLD FEET.
When Habitual They Indicate an Enfee-
bled Circulation.

When Habitual They Indicate an Enfee-
bled Circulation.
The amount of dangerous disease that
may arise from chilled feet can hardly
be estimated. It is great mistake to
clothe the feet of children or of old peo-
pie in anything but wooden stockings
Persons in the prime of health and
strength can endure a lighter foot COW
ering, but invalids and all delicate per-
sons should be carefully protected in
this matter. The majority of pneu.
monias may probably be traced to
chilled or damp feet. Where the feet
are habitually cold, it indicates poor
circulation of the blood, and is itself
cause enough to require a tonic for the
system. Such weakness in the circu-
lation indicates the need of nutritious
food and rich, stimulating diet. Ex-
ternal treatment is of. very little value.
In these days, there is no excuse for q
woman adopting light footwear.
A great many people who wear thin
shoes have damp feet, and 60 about in
this way for considerable time with
out realizing the danger they run by
such a course. Children who go to
school at a distance from home, espec-
tally in the country, where they are
compelled to walk through snow-paths,
get their feet wet, and sit through the
whole of school-time with damp feet.
They should be provided with a second
pair of shoes and stockings in such cases.
to put on in place of their damp ones
before school begins 1t is a very un-
wholesome thing for child to sit in
shoes of snow-soaked leather for any
length of time, even though their stock
ings should be perfectly dry, and many
dangerous colds and throat diseases re-
suit from this cause.-Chicago Tribune.
