THE WORLD ON WHEELS.

Santa Ee's Reduction ON Eastbound Re-
frixsrsted shipments.
A national law provides that before
January l. 1898. all railroads must adopt
automatic coupiers and brakes. Not
over third OF the locomotives and cars
are thus equipped as yet. The rush
will come in 1897. and the labor organ
izations are not likely to allow the law
to be forgotten.
The Santa Fe's new western classi6ca.
ton sheet has been received by General
Freight Agent Hynes OF this city. There
ara many changes in it from the old
schedule, but perhaps the most imports
ant of these ia tho increasing OF the
minimum on furniture to IA 600 pounds.
Fruit shippers will be agresably sur
prieed to learn that the refrigerating
rate ON oranges and vsgeta bles has been
lowered on the Santa Fe route to the ex.
tent of $25 on shipments TO the Missouri
river and intermediate points, and $50
on shipments east of the Missouri. The
nav rate will 20 into effect on the let o I
January, and will be 500 and 500 re-
spsctively. in place Of tho old rate of
$75 and $0O. This 10 simply the refrig-
Grating rate, it should be remembered.
or rather the excess charged on all east

The hills of CALIFORNIA; and Southern
Oregon are capable OF furnishing 100, 900
men 81 so day, with no other imple-
ments than miners pick, shovel and
pan. There is no sense in great army
of lazy vagabonds marching to Washing
ton to falsely impress upon congress
that they cannot secure work. Ii the
Coxyites wonld make use of opportuni-
ties offered them en- route not one of
them would reach the capitol city. In
Portland they were offered food and
lodging for work, and places promised
them on farms at steady employment
within a week. But work was not what
they wanted. They claimed it was, but
they lied. They refused the Portland
offer and will resume their march to
Washington to pose before the country
as martyrs and heroes. It is time this
morbid sentiment gave place to little
hard sense. If sympathy on the part of
the people gave place to disgust rthese
worthless vagrants, the industrial
army" would be short lived. The tramps
have organized-that's all there is to
the movement.

and beliefs, subjected to the crucial test
of experience, and strained through the
keenest intelligence of the nation, re-
veal their weakness. Fiat money is
shown up in all its pitiful mendicancy,
and free coinage of silver shown to be a
measure alone for handful of silver
producers. The silver interest does not
actually amount to as much as the wool
interest; more money is spent for pins
and needles than for silver bullion.
There are score of interests that de-
serve recognition before silver.
This year tide has set in for the re-
publican party which bids fair to parallel
that of $3.50. The maintainance of the
principle of protection is demanded.
Every other issue is foreign to the sub
ject.
The populists are on the wrong scent /;
their grievances are fancied, their meas
ures quixotic, and they should adopt the
plain verdict of unpopularity with the
masses, and disband.

ATHLETIC EXERCISES.

The Ages at Which To Begin and Leave

There is an error in the commence

writer in Longman's Magazine. 1t
should not be begun at too youthful a
period: itshould not be continued to
too late a period. have put it from
eighteen to thirty-six years of age, and
that, am convinced, is a very just
limitation for all except those who are
Obliged to follow it, as in the acrobat
way, during a life of toll devoted to
the amusements of the people.
At eighteen the organs of the body
have fairly developed and yet are not
so matured as to have lost any degree
of their elasticity, power and facility
for affording graceful and powerful
movements. The nervous system has
become well developed and. the senses
have reached to good and healthy ac-
tion. At thirty-six the organs have
ceased to increase naturally and all
parts have entered in to a maturity
which stands in the way of
new activity of a permanent char
acter. BY this time the body
begins to feel conclusions and vibra-
tions, which. exalted, pass easily into
shocks affecting the elastic substance,
especially the elastic arteries and all
structures that require to be cushioned
by the elastic element.
If elastic tissue grows in the body in
youth and adolescence there comes an
early period when it. fails to grow,
and, as occurs in piece of India rub
Der, there comes another period when
it begins to lose its elasticity. Then
any new exercise of an extreme kind
becomes a mechanical injury, which
soon shows itself in the fact that the
man once SO successful is forced,
nolens volens, to admit that he is
beaten by younger competitors. Here
are disadvantages of striking kind. I
have seen them. 1 have seen many
youths injured by too early competi-
tion. have over and over again seen
mature men vitality injured by too pro
longed a competition. It is hard to
know and feel all this, but it is accord
ing to our mistress, Nature, and she is
SO strong and so determined a jade
that she will give nothing beyond
what she has given. Nobody says no
and means it with SO inexorable a de-
termination as Mistress Nature. A man
had better be obedient to her than to
his wife, or woman to her husband.

A MlLKMAN,s MISTAKE.
He Mistook His Customers Ear-Trumpet
for a Milk-Can.

He Mistook His Customers Ear-Trumpet
for Milk-Cau.
An amusing story is told of one OF
our formerly well-known Back bay
physicians, says the Boston Herald,
who is now an old man, and so deaf
that he cannot hear anything without
the use of an ear-trumpet.
1t happened that while he was
spending his vacation at his summer
residence he had occasion to make
some changes among the people with
whom he traded for the necessaries of
life. Early one morning he was
aroused by his wife and made to under
stand that somebody was knocking
violently at the front door. Putting
on light dressing gown, and procur-
ing his trumpet, he started off down
stairs, prepared to listen near the door
and ascertain the cause of so much
disturbance. Intent upon finding out
what the noise was about, he opened
the door little way, and, sticking his
ear-trumpet through the crack, ap-
piled his ear to it and awaited develop
ments.
In a few moments he felt luke
warm liquid running from his ear,
down the back of his neck, and on to
the floor. Flinging open the door, he
discovered that the new millSInan had
mistaken his ear trumpet for milk
can, and was leisurely pouring the
contents of a gallon jug into the end
which had been presented to him
through the crack of the door.

OFF THE TRACK.

Our populist friends are good citizens
and ntighbors, and command our res
pect for discernment and intelligence
on all subjects save politics. We have a
fiiendly and neigh borly regard for them,
which we hope is reciprocated, and know
that it is, except possibly during the
campaign, when difference of political
views compels us to part company upon
that line. Probably their sources of in
formation, being different than ours, in
clines them TO an honest and intelligent
belief, but we advise, if not a change in
literature, careful reading and study
of other papers than the ordinary "peo-
pies party" country weekly and that
lying book by Mrs. Emery called "Seven
Financial Conspiracies.'
They will recognize with us that if
there is any merit in the peoples party
1t should be growing. The third party
movement is on the decline. If there is
ever to be any popularity for it the re-
verse should be true. When there is
occasion for any great reform, while the
initial movement may be slight, it in
creases with length of life rapidly and
nightly. 1t finds recruits at every
turn. Great men all over the nation re-
Dounce their former ties and join in the
popular movement. 1t progresses by
leaps and bounds, and with numerical
strength comes intelligence, ability and
dignity. Witness the gigantic strides
made by the republican party from 1856
TO 1860. In four years it sprang from a
feeble minority to an overpowering ma
jority. Great humane principles were
At stake and they found ready ADVOCATES
on all hands.
After ten years of populism in the
United States, the small minority of en-
thusiasts are still minority. Their
members in congress can almost be
eoanted on the fingers of one hand, and
they can claim out one state out of all.
1t is in congress that the populists' ideas

Joe Waldrop puts the democratic plat
form where it belongs. The Leader says :
TIL state platform is the most remark
able document yet given to the people
OF Oregon. It begins with the declara-
tion of an ''abiding faith and confidence
in the integrity, good faith and patriot
ism of Grover Cleveland" and then
follows up with the most ultra populistic
platform we have seen. To indorse
Cleveland and populism in the came
breath is feat IN political gymnastics
that takes the cake.

FEEDING TnE JACKA.S.

A Strange Ceremony Performed by Him
alayan Priests.
A strange ceremony is carried on at
a certain temple lying in belt of
swamp and jungle at the foot of the
Himalayas. The author of 'Indian
Memories" who visited the place at
sundown, says that she found the
priests in perfect silence, engaged in
cooking large cakes before the temple.
Then they sat down, still silent and
stolid, as if ignorant of any unaccus-
toned presence.
AS the last rays of sunlight died off
the temple, a man of extreme age,
clad in white robes and closely shaven,
issued from the shrine. 1t was the
chief priest. Moving slowly forward,
he took up a bronze hammer, and be-
gan to strike the bell. Very sweet
and deep was the note; the whole
glade rang and vibrated with it.
At the sound, all the priests rose
and moved solemnly and in dead silence
round the quadrangle, bearing with
them their huge cakes, which they
broke up as they walked, and de-
posted them on the stones and tree
trunks, and the steps of the temple. A
rustling sound made me turn. A jack
al, big and plump, brushed past me,
with an upward curl of his lips, and a
look of surprise and resentment in his
red-bronze, cleaning eyes.
simultaneously, from every lane and
passage in the darl1ening thiclxet, came
. other jaclals, singly and in pairs, and
filed the space before the temple.
Soon the feast was spread. The high
priest ceased to toll the bell, and at a
I'll,
jacl1al trotted, without rivalry and
without snarling or confusion, to what
was evidently his accustomed place in
the feast, seized the cake in his jaws,
turned and disappeared through the
thicket.
In vain did 1 fee the priests to learn
the meaning of this strange bounty.
st had always been so," was their
answer.

a Long Rope.

An Irishman who served on board a
man-of-war was selected by one of the
officers to haul in tow line of consid-
erable length that was towing over
the taffrail. After pulling in forty or
fifty fathoms, which had put his pa
tiencc severely to proof, as we'll as
every muscle of his arms, he muttered
to himself: Surely it's as long as to-
day and tomorrow It's a good weeks
work for any five in the ship. Bad luck
to the leg or the rm it'll leave at last.
What! more of it yet? Och, murder!
the says mighty deep, to be sure!'
After continuing in a similar strain,
and conceiving there was little proba-
bility of the completion of his labor,
he suddenly stopped short, and, ad-
dressing the officer on watch, ex-
claimed: bad manners to me, sir, if
don't think somebody's cut off the
other end of iti''
