The Dawn of Peace

Put or, put off your mail, o kings,
And beat your brands to dust.
Your hands must learn a smer grasp.
Yours hearts a better trust.
Oh. bend aback the lance's point,
And break the helmet bar;
A noise is in the morning wind,
But not the note of war.
Upon the grassy mounaun raths
The glittering hosts Increase
They comet They come! How fair
their feetl
They come TO publish peace.
And victory. fair victory,
Our enemies are ours!
For all the clouds are clasped in light
And all the earth with flowers.
Ave, still depressed and dim with dew
But wait a little while,
And with the deathless, radiant rose
The wilderness shall smile.
And every tender, living thing
Shall feed by streams Of rest;
Nor lamb shall from the flock be lost
Nor nurseling from the nest

Today General Wilson sails ON the
St Paul for England, where he will
be the official representative of the
United States Army, at the coronation.
Delaware feels honored through
General Wilson, and will watch the
events of the great pageant with es-
pecial interest In sending a special
embassy the President was actuated by
feeling of friendliness towards a
great and kindred people, and his Sc
lections were admirable. These gem
tlemen will fttingly represent the
American people and reflect credit on
the country which sends them. The
Misses Wilson accompany their father;
and old Delaware wishes the party
bon voyage.

GATHERING OPIUM.
How the Petals and Juice of the
Poppy Plant Are Procured.

Poppy Plant Are Procured.
1t is a sort of garden cultivation, the
poppy plants being grown in little
squares or beds intersected by tiny wa
ter channels for irrigation wherever
this is possible. The growth Of the
plants is carefully tended, and at
length the time comes when they burst
out into flower, and the fields look like
a sheet of silver as the white petals Of
the flowers glisten in the morning dew.
These beautiful petals are the first
produce of the crop, for the women and
children of the cultivators' families
come forth and pick them off one by
one and carefully dry them, so that
they may serve afterward as the cover
ing of the manufactured cakes of
opium. Then the poppies, with their
bare capsule heads, remain standing in
the open field until it is considered that
they are ripe for lancing. The cult.
vators then come forth in the evening,
and, with an implement not unlike the
knives of a cupping instrument, they
scarify the capsule on its sides with
deep incisions, so that the Juice may
exude.
In the early morning the cultivators
reappear with a scraping knife and
their earthenware pots, and they
scrape off the exuded juice and collecl
it in their pots. And this is crude
opium.-Blackwood's Magazine.

NOISE AND ECHO

At the risk of being regarded as
monotonous as our neighbor, we ven
ture a few remarks in comment on
certain utteIahces Of the Every Even
ing on the Philippine question. We
would remark in the beginning that
our contemporary lays great stress on
the utterances of Senator Hoar, and
we wonder. If it wishes to be fair, that
it doesn't quote Senator Morgan. He
represents Democracy of the old
school. and is the political bedfellow
Of our neighbor. Then we wish to ask
in this connection question that
causes us great concern; what would
become of the Every Evening editor
tally should the New York Evening
Post cease publication? We dare not
speculate on the consequences.
The Post has discovered (and of
course our neighbor follows suit the
fact that President Roosevelt has
changed his attitude toward the Fill
pinos. We are led to believe that he
no longer wishes TO compel them to
wear ball and chain in token of serYi-
tude. but really favors their independ-
ence. Then follows the conclusion that
they are to be cast adrift and left TO
their own devices, free to go head
hunung, or to engage in the pleasant
pastme of pursuing the feet-footed
missionary.
AS applied to government, indie
pendence" is rather flexible word.
The people Of the several States are in
dependent, yet not so independent that
they can withdraw from the Federal
Union. We had a war over that ques-
ton. If to be independent in the
sense OF being separate is what is
meant. and this is a political ideal,
then States should be allowed to with
draw from the Union without let or
.hindrance. and subdivisions down to
individual families, encouraged. On
the same plea why should not the sep
arate islands each be allowed to estab-
lish its own government? We imagine
that the measure of independence
meant by the President was that die
tate by sane thinking; they may have
the same measure of self-goyernment
as Porto Rico. as Arizona. as New
York. in proportion to their merit But
independence in the sense of separation
is not contemplated.

whnt 1ntermittencr Menn..

Intermittency is that form of irreg-
ularity in which the pulse appears to
drop a beat occasionally. In some In
stances it occurs regularly and two or
three times per minute for several
hours. Sometimes, also. it is very ir-
regular and is noted a number of
times within a few seconds and not
again for a minute or more. This pc
culiarity generally causes much un-
easiness. Yet, while it may be a very
serious symptom and associated with
grave and incurable disease Of the
heart, it often signifies merely a func-
tional disturbance which is in nowise
dangerous.

o1den TING .sRnimsnt.n

In early Bible days richly embroider-
ed raiment was enumerated with the
gold, silver and other valuable property
of a rich man. In that primitive age
Dame Fashion was not the tickle god
dess she is at present, and the ''rai-
ment" so frequently mentioned in the
Holy Scriptures descended from father
to son as a valuable part of the inher-
itance. Raiment was often sent, with
gold and gems, as a present to digni-
taries.
1t took not months, but years, to or
nament some of these garments, and
the gold thread so lavishly used in
embroidering them was real gold.
Moses describes the process of making
the gold thread that was used in orna-
menting the tabernacle. The habit of
making presents of rare needlework is
still common among eastern nations
who changed their customs so slowly.

The Republicans have swept Oregon.

possible exception of the governor.
The fight over that Office was largely
factional and personal. The campaign
was made on national issues, the
Democrats declaring for the policy OF
"scuttle" I'm the Philippines. and the
Republicans meeting the issue
squarely. The result is a Republican
Legislature. which will elect a United

On Proner Vaccination.

1t should be made clear that proper
vaccination is the only known method
Of specific value in comforting -immuni-
ty from smallpox. The comparatively
short duration of this immunity should
be insisted upon, and a simple. intel
ligible description Of the ordinary
course of a proper vaccination should
be added. 1t would be extremely use
full, in view Of the wide diffusion of
antivaccination literature, to make the
frank admission that in the days of
arm to arm vaccination accidental in
oculation with other diseases. although
extremely unlikely, was theoretically
possible, but that the modern method
Of glycerinated calf lymph has now de-
stroyed even the remote possibility OF
such intrinsic danger. - Saturday Re-

The Philippine bill passed the SEN
ate yesterday by good majority, not
withstanding the campaign OF vitu-
peration and abuse. II aims TO give
the people of the archipelago the
largest measure Of self-government
possible. and is preliminary to a stable
government which will come in due
time after complete pacihcation. The
Philippine Islands will enjoy all the
rights and privileges of a sovereign
State when they prove themselves
worthy of the trust. The American
people are too humane and just &c
