IN FAVOR OF HONESTY,

The Pacific Monthly Is an illustrated
magazine published in Portland, ore
son, and edited by Mr. William Dittle
Wells. It's May number has several
interesting features. Among these are
the various departments" covering
current events OF general Importance,
Under the caption Impressions the
author, Mr.. Charles Erskine Scott
Wood, writes about Sumner Smith,
Hero" Power and the Police" Law
Makers and Law Breakers" AN
Anarchist" The Drift Toward So
ciallsm;" and THE smoot Case" What
the author has to say OF this case de-
50 ryes to be widely read. Undoubtedly
he expresses the sentiments OF a great
many who do not care to give publicity
to what they think on much debated
question. We quote the following.
Decidedly, monogamy, Is the last
and the best word Of civilized society
Decidedly polygamy Is not the ideal,
but | FOR one never have been able TO
understand why II the arrangement
suits the men and women concerned
as II suited the patrlarchs OF the Bible
--clergymon or anybody else should
have the power, forcibly, to disrupt the
entire arrangement brand the on
spring with curse and punish those
who have been attending strictly to
their own affairs. but knowing as /
know, and as every one knows that
not all congressman are perfect, | have
been concerned with certain hypoc-
risy and certain lack OF fundamental
trnth I'm this smoot investigation,
NOW, the opposition TO Smoot be-
gan solely on the ground OF polygamy;
not that he was dictated TO by a
church. For example, let us suppose
that some senator as an ardent son
of the Roman Catholic church. took his
political Instructions from that church,
no one would attempt for that reason
TO unseat him, Any way, the attack on
Smoot was for polygamy, and II must
be remembered he himself Is not
polygamist, nor does he believe in
polygamy. He Is a Mormon, but sup
pose he Is a polygamist. Even so, II
seems to me there IA n lamentable
failure IN candor and consistency In
the attempt IN unseat him. Had Smoot
kept an establishment in New York,
with illegltlmate children attached
branding both mother and children as
Infamous, who would undertake to un-
seat him for this reason2 The honor
able senators would say that It was his
private affalr. none Of their business. ="
There is a deal OF sincere and hon
est endeavor on the part OF many
good people 10 make others good by
force, according to the views Of the
good ones and there is deal OF down
right hypocrisy In the world. and
against both, as long az / am permitted
to dc so, | shall raise my protest"

ENGLAND IN TIBET.

AdvIces from st. Petersburg state
that the British exhibition into Tibet
is very distasteful 10 the Russian gov
ornment and causing very bitter feel
ing toward England The Russians be-
lleve that Great Britain r. taking ad-
vantage Of Russa's msfortuncs to dis
turb the equilibrium IN Eastern Asia,
and when the time comes for settle.
ment Great Britain win be called upon
to pay II IL recalled that when Eng
land had her hands fun in South Africa
Russia did not make a move which
would be offensive TO London. England,
It Is thought, ought to have reciprocal
ed the courtesy. There Is, however, no
fear for the final outcome OF the war
with Japan, and when victory Is won,
| England. it is asserted. win be called
upon to surrender any advantage It
may have gained In Tibet,
The first published excuse for the in
vasion Of Tibet by Mr. Younghusband' 3
military expedition was the reasonable
desire on the part Of Great Britain to
impress upon the authorities OF that
exclusive country the necessity OF OBJ
serving treaty obligations, 1t had also
been reported that the Dalai Lama had
sent gifts to the Russian Gear through
a Russian subject and this seemed to
call for some kind OF protest, Gradu-
ally, however, It became apparent that
England's designs We're Of greater i'm
portance than at FIRST thought The
London Times expressed the opinion
that the expedition meant much more
than the correction Of Tlbet-that It
meant the dnal definite closing Of ave-
nues for Russian interference IN that
country. A writer IN one Of the maya
zines went further, and stated that the
British column must not stop short Of
the gates of Lhassa and must not re-
turn without leaving a proper force
behind together with a capable resi-
dent Now It has been announced in
the House OF Lords by Lord Hardwlckc
that Great Britain is at war with Tibet.
That means. Of course, that the British
flag Is 10 be noated over Lhassa,
In view Of these facts Russia Is GER

troublesome precedent? The govern

WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.

The sealer OF weights and measures,
It is said, has determined upon cru
SADIE against an dealers and peddlers
who are using short weights and meas
ures, That there are many who arc
guilty OF this practise there is no doubt.
This Is particularly go as regards the
itIncrating peddlers, who 80 about the
city disposng OF inferior stun at short
measure. Many Of them seem to re-
gard the public not as patrons but as
legitimate prey and any scheme, no
matter how rascally that insures thcm
an increased profit, IS readily adopted.
There is scarcely house wife In the
town who could not give many expert
onccs OF being swiudled by vegetable
peddlers, Occasionally one hears Of a
dealer who gives such good measure"
which simply means an honest measure.
IL f. 30 rare as % call forth remarks
It should not DE this way That which
should occasion surprise Is n short
weight or measure.
II people are content 10 accept twelve
ounces az "a pound and a pint and a
half as a quart, the dealers viii, as a
rule. be content 20 give them twelve
ounces for a pound and a pint ana a
hall for a quart The dealers who do
