IT is strange perversion OF the
human mind that cannot discriminate
between sympathy for brutal crim-
inal and disapproval Of acts of saw
agery on the part OF those who take
the law into their own hands. The
protection of society is the end sought,
and If society needs protection againsO
itself, carried beyond reason by the
desire for revenge, why should those
who point out the danger to society
from this unreason be branded as the
excusers and apologists of crime? 1t
is not true that butchered innocence
is forgotten; but, that the butchery
by society is to the full as dangerous
to society as the butchery by the in
dividual is true, and because of this
menace to society in it's own brutaliz-
alton the voice of true wisdom pro
nounces against it.

Gladstone knows better than do bis

to go beyond this and put the whole

MEN AND women

Many men and women who a sho time
ago t. ought themselves Of strong physique,
splendid intellect and nerves of iron marvel
at the feeling of exhaustion andtotal lack
of interest in their business affairs. They
are OverpOweTed by sense of laSsitude
languOr and dizziness Their Wanted
strength and self control seem to have left
them when most needed; already they have
experienced lack of old tune vlgOr, a GER
tain lack Of confidence, and nervous appre-
hensiOn instead of the old courage; a con-
slant feeling of las ,itude and waning am
bition: their blood is Impoverished, their
eyes lusterIess, they are haunted with mel
anchnly and frequently have the "bIueS;'
they feel their vitality wasting day by day
aud night by night; they are easily diScOur-
aeed, irr table, mOrOSe and unhappy; pleas
uTes tire and friends bore them.

HOME RULINGS.

THERE is but one Hogg, and CAL
Isghan is his prophet.
HoGG aud Callsghsn! Twin divin-
tiles before whose shrine San Antonio
respectfully declines to bow.
AND still no answer to the damag-
ing charges made against the old
gang ten days since.
To what policy is Shardein. com
mitted and on what platform does he
stand. The psople want to know.
The people ask for. their own
judges of the council and they get a
stone.
SILENCE is golden, but this silence
as to the whence and whittier of the
city funds is pure brass.
AND now they chsrge Paschal with
the responsibility of Callaghan's mall
ADMINISTRATION. Selab!
THE old city Is reused from centre
to circumference over the effort to
route the "old ring"
WHEN the administration crowd at
tack Mackey's business record they
"tackle the wrong tomcat."
IT is not the personnel of the Shar-
den ticket that is repudiated, but
the fatherhood It.
CAN any good thing for San Anto
MO come from under Callsghan's hat?
That is what is the matter.
SAN ANTONIO now demands a city
government on whose head the
"Ooss" cannot lay a coercive hand.
THE books shall be opened. They
will open and close for the old adj
ministration next Monday,
THE administration that fires q
man for exercising his citizen rights
will itself get fired.
WHEN Csllsghan was elected cour.
ty judge he was not given life lien
on the city government.
ALL the evasions and subterfuge.
in the world will not avail. San An.
tonic wants to see the old order die.
THE only terms that the city ID
ready to make with the present ''city
ring" is unconditional surrender.
THE city aims to exclude from tn,
new administration all that dominat
ed the councils of the old.
THE redemption Of the city from
ring rule draws nigh. Let every bal
lot do it's duty on Monday.
THE people know what they cal
hope for under Paschsl, but they dis
trust Hogg -Callaghan combine.
THE people have no quarrel will
Shardein, but they utterly distrus
his business manager.
IT IS not prejudice that moves thi
city against It's old administration
but a sense of deadly peril.
INCOMPETENCE in public bushes
and wastage of the public money Civ
no title to continued public trust.

Tn. Fec Question In England.

In discussing ''What to Give When
Visiting" writer in London paper
brings out some curious history of
old time English feeling.
"In town, he says, 1.-The feeling sys-
tenn is certainly on the decline. For
merly fees were given under the
name of walls to servants by dinner
guests and ball guests and even by
luncheon guests. This is now quite
q thing of the past, Fashionable So
ciety does not give and Is not expect
ed to give. The middle classes, how
ever, still retain this old fashioned
custom-they give their crowns and
half crowns to the parlor maids, and
even mention this when engaging
them. i often give luncheon par
ties, remarks an old lady to an ap-
plicant for her situation, and you
will find my friends are very gener-
ous.'
"Such trifing fees, however, could
not be looked upon as tax, but
they were a trouble, and they have
fallen into allegiance. At the thea
ters the feeling system is rapidly dis
appearing, to the great satisfaction
of the public, who feel that quite
enough is charged for seats without
having to pay to be shown into
| them"

In the Act of RObblng a Bank.

Those who were in the Cambridge
port National bank Thursday after
noon saw a man who a few years
ago was considered one of the most
notorious bank robbers in the coun-
try. The man was Langdon w.
Moore, and one of his most success
full robberies was the stealing OF
SIC, 900 in bonds and money from
that very bank.
In few words Moore made known
his errand to the officers Of the bank.
He is writing book, and it is to be
illustrated with pictures of some OF
the most successful of his daring
robberies. Having gained the re
quired permission, Moore took the
same position that he did on the oc-
casion of the robbery many years
ago, the bank now being arranged
practically the same as then. A
young man took the place of his ac-
comphce, and another took the pic
ture. Boston Transcript.

Manhood suffrage is an unstable
foundation for a government; yet in
Greece, where the population is al
most exclusively agricultural and,
except in Thessaly, peasant proprie-
tary is universal, there Is less cause
to apprehend those furious gusts of
popular feeling which affect people
crowded together in great industrial
centers. If military and naval ex-
penditure- especially the latter, for
which in a country without colonies
there ought to be no pressing neces-

that the new kingdom win be firmly

CLEVELAND'S BLUFF.


The arrest of ex-Collector LOtan and
his deputies at Portland for alleged viO-
lations of the Geary law is decidedly q
political bluff. Coming from an ad-
ministra. ion that has in every way
failed to give the people the benefit OF
that law, it is the heighth of insolence
to use it for political purposes to prose
cute Republicans.
If the administration had shown zeal
in enforcing the Geary law in place OF
seeking in every way to Illustrate and
uullify 1t, to the extent Of advising with
the chief justice of the supreme court
in securing a suspension of the act-it
could consistently apply the law rigidly
to Lotan and Others. But when Cleve.
land and his cabinet are the chief male
factors in encouraging Chinese immi-
grafton in violation of law, and alb
solutely refuse to enforce the law, what
position are they in to prosecute Off
cials for technical malfessances.
Ii is clearly a monumental bluff fol
partisan purposes.

How Climate Aneets Animals.

Graphic Account Of Bull

Since writing last two great events

exception, the writer through modesty
failed 70 mention favorably the oration
oftheday, by Mr.. E. Hofer. lljoined
10 pronouncing it a success and 1t was
appreciated by all. Both the Grafton
and the orator and the sentiment ex-
pressed were generally endorsed.
Tue bull fight was in the grand am-
phitheater reaching from the Santiam
river to Aumsville. The bull was in
good condition, early in the morning
while the birds were singing and all ma

fought the bull, and the bull fought the
knights, at last the contest ended for
the day, the bull having suffered the
loss of an seye and some teeth, the
knights loss was their breath, their sup
Der, and the skin from their ships
caused by climbing trees and fences.
The following day just as the glorious
sun was rising In the east, and all ma
ture had risen from its slumbers the
contest was again commenced, but be-
hold two additional bnights, "the gray
knight" and the "Unknown knight"
entered the list, the first onset the gray
knight advanced aud struck the bull a
blow with his lance, who in rage
knocked the lance from his hand, spin
ming across the amphitheater andstruc
the knight of the cleayer on the head,
destroying his helmet and his presence
of mind. 1t has been reported that the
gray knight would have had his foot
smashed many times If his legs had
been little longer, as he only bad time
to draw them up the tree, OF oyer the

noble animal arrived at home, aud be
ing angry that he was not received as
