A Coming Centennial.

The people of St. Louis are taking steps
to celebrate April -. 1905. as the Tooth
anniversary Of the Louisiana purchase.
1t ia proposed to make the celebration an
event that will rival the Worlds fair at
Chicago.
Certainly no event since the discovery
OF America. says the New York World,
has had a greater infuence in the history
OF the world than the Louisiana purchase
the single stroke OF craftsmanship
which assured the standing of the Unit
ed States as the greatest power of mod
ern times.
Long before the purchase was made
the danger to the United States
of attack from the west had
been fully recognized, and both in the
purchase and in the Lew is and Clark ex-
pedition, which gave us the Pacific as a
boundary, Mr.. Jefferson showed that
prophetic sense OF our possibilities of
greatness which, next to his love for ind-
vidual liberty, was the dominating idea
of his life.
II the purchase OF Louisiana had not
been made We would have lost the Mis-
sissippi, the Northwest territory, and ev-
erything else We now hold except the ter
ritory east Of the Alleghanies. The
question of the control OF the continent
would have been left between France and
England. with ell the chances in favor of
England, as Napolen saw when he sold
the continent for song. He said TO Yer
gennes. as he laid down the pen with
which he had signed the treaty, II have
this day founded power that will yet
humble the pride OF England as mistre. 9
Of the seas"
II 10 curious contradiction that Mr..
Jefferson, who more than most mtn
feared the effect OF national ambitions on
liberty, should have changed America
from little group of independent states
to vast federation that is practically an
empire

Surrounded by True Oriental Luxuries, the
Deity VIII Receive Due Homage.
1.-THE Chinese citizens of Chicago will
soon have the most magnificent joss
house in America, said Sam Moy to a
reporter. 1.-The entire furnishings for
the place are now being designed and
made in China, and we expect TO open
the house in about three months. Our
people are habitually very quiet and not
given to display or parade, but the dedi-
cation of the new josshouse will be at
tended with Chinese ceremonies and a
parade far more elaborate than has ever
been seen in Chicago and probably in
the United States.
1.-The place will not be used as Joss
house alone, but also as the lodge or
headquarters Of the Chinese Freema-
sons of this city. There are many of
these here, and the society is hundreds
of years old n China In addition to
this it will serve as place for the tenn
porary entertainment of the people Of
our nation who make few days stop
in the city. They will be housed and
taken care of there"
Hip Lung, probably the wealthiest
Celestial in Chicago and a relative of
Sam Moy, explained that every piece of
furnishings for the josshouse is being
designed and made in China, and that
the furniture will cost not less than 81.

other rare and costly oriental woods and
will be deliberately carved and heavily
decorated with gold.
The entire cost OF the house will not
be less than 81, 900 or IS. 900. and there
will be nothing like it in America II
will have two large jossrooms. with the
finest Chinese hangings, decorations and

private parlors for special use.

MORAL STANDARDS SHIFTING.

Albert Bushnell Hart, in the Forum
One of the evidences OF MORAL shifting
is that so many people suppose that pri-
vate and public affairs have two stand
ards; that it is wrong to use an employ
er's time for private gain, but right for a
public officer TO draw his salary and then
leave the regular duties TO a deputy; that
it is wrong to secure privilege for ones
self by bribing city council, but right
to subscribe money to campaign fund
to buy votes for party's advantage; or
that distinction may he made between
the private and public character of public
men. Americans seem rather more
prone than formerly to consort with
Thomas, Richard and Henry, il thereby
they get aid or amusement. The leading
idea of book which is said recently to

THE RISE OF GOLD.

In Europe economic statisticians have
adopted a system of averaging the prices
of things, called index numbers. The
prices at y given time are taken of any
desired number Of products. These are
then averaged and the resulting average
is taken as the price OF commodities at
that date. This system has been largely
used to show the relative gold prices of
silver and the principal commodities of
civilization. The results are most in
structive. We find, beyond cavll or con-
tradiction, that as silver has fallen in
value so have other things, with the ex
ception OF gold; or, to put it correctly,
that silver and all other things have
maintained their normal relative values,
while gold has increased in value. We
find also that this condition Of things be-
gun with the demonstration of silver.
There is no escaping the conclusion that
gold recommendation has depressed the
money value OF all things. In other
words, has robbed all things Of nearly
half their valne.
Must we not, then, destroy gold mono
metallism and restore to all things the
value of which they have been robbed!
In doing so We do not rob gold, we simply
put 1t where it was before, in its just
place.
Nothing can stand in the way of this
duty. We are urged to its performance
by every motive OF se,f-preservstion and
right.
Gold monometallism must be destroyed.
We give Sauerbeck's tables OF index
numbers from 1873 to 1892. showing the
fall in the gold price of silver since de-
monetizatlon. aud the index numbers
from 1878 back to 1854, showing the sta
biity Of silver before demonstration.
Also the index numbers OF the As prin-
cipal commodities from 1874 to 1892,
showing that they declined in sympathy
with silver

INVESTIGATING AN ACCIDENT.
The Railroad Engineer Gets Ont of Trouble
For Running Too Fast.

The Railroad Engineer Gets Out of Trouble
For Running Too Fast.
Superintendent Warren of the East
ern Illinois railway was telling the 9TH
er evening of certain engineer in the
employ of the road who had been re-
peatedly cautioned against running too
fast. He was running a freight train,
and ON one portion of his division there
was steep hill His orders were to
never permit his train to go down that
hill faster than 10 miles an hour, but it
was general belief that whenever he had
safe opportunity he sailed down that
grade just as fast as the wheels would
turn. One day he did go down the hill
so fast that the entire train left the
track at the bottom, and there were box
cars piled up high. An investigation
Immediately followed, and the engi.
neer, in railroad parlance. was put ON
the carpet. He swore in the most
solemn terms that he went down the
hill not faster than 10 miles an hour,
but that Just before reaching the bot
tom he lost control of the airbrake, and
the speed became so great the train
could not keep the track; hence the
wreck, for which he was not response

down, and he will swear that he never
saw train going so fast in all his life,
and he is a man go years old. He says
that it was next to an impossibility to
see the wheels. What do you say to
that"
The engineer never hesitated.
II know the man. Isaw him the day
after the wreck, and he told the same
story to me, only there was little more

What was that?"
why, he told me that it was the
first train of cars he had ever seen in
his life, and don't think he would be
a very good judge of speed"
There was silence in the room for a
few moments, and the engineer got off
with a 90 days suspension -CAioago

1t is no great stretching of the truth to
say that in Yakima county criminals are
not convicted; but we are not much
worse eff than in Oregon, where they are
convicted only to be pardoned by the
governor. The bald use he has made Of
his power, together with his other eccen-
tricties, has caused Pennoyer to be locke
upon in some quarters as mentally un-
sound. One of his pardoned pets shot
James Ashton at Christmas dance near
Pendleton, which caused several gentle
men OF that city to wire the governor as
follows: please send pardon by return
mail. Frank Fletcher, whom you par
doned last June, has shot another man,
and we desire to save expense of trial
end conviction"

FRIENDLY TO HIS WARDS.

A dispatch to the Post Intelligencer from
Washington, ID. c., under date OF Deem
Dor 26, 1894, shows strange dissimiIar-
ity in the views OF the Indian agents,
and would make good reading matter for
the educated wards of the government on
the Yakima reserve. The inference Gre
ated is such that at even a first glance it
will be seen that one agent is friend of
his charges and the other an enemy.
says the dispatch:
Capt. p. II. Ray, OF Shoshone agency,
says: They tindians) will never become
self-supporting as long as the government
gives them semblance OF support neither
can they begin to accumulate property as
long as the supply of the necessaries of
life is solely in the hands of white trad
ers.' Capt. Ray also complained OF the
domination of chiefs, who are allowed to
dictate to the agent as to the issue OF an
nuities and the affairs of the agency; and
he wishes these chiefs removed"
In marked contrast with the domineer-
ing display of petulant disregard for the
welfare OF the Indians is the attitude of
Agent L. L. Erwin, of the Yakima reser-
Walton. he states TO the government
through the Indian department, and is SO
quoted in the dispatch above referred to,
that whisky is the greatest hindrance to
the Indians prosperity" He urges the
department to take definite and immedi-
ate action to restore to his charges their
rights to their accustomed fisheries on
the Columbia river, the dispute over
which has resulted in considerable trou-
Die; recommends re-survey OF the lower
boundary line of the reserve, az desired
by the Indians, and states that they
we're never more in need OF assistance OF
a financial nature from the government.
This demonstration OF frIendliness to-
ward his Indian charges on the part OF
Agent Erwin is more than commendable.
The approaching winter bids fair to be
one of severity. lie recognizes as much.
and implores departmental aid and pro
vision against disagreeable and unfortu-
nate contingencies. Capt. Ray. on the
other hand, seems to delight in adding to
the misery OF the inhabitants of the sho-
shone reserve. The contrast is striking
and the Yakima Indians should remem-
Der Agent Erwin's good offices and his
proven friendliness and good will for them
sika their interests.
