MR. HARRis on MorNEs.

In an interview on the situation in
this congressional district, Hon. T. L..
Harris. OF Eugene, has this to say OF
his own candidacy:
zone thing which strikes me as be-
Ing very funny. which | have observed
closely since | have announced my
candidacy and that Is that many OF
those who urged me to enter the race
a year ago and were the strongest ex.

who would 80 there and remain. and

Ing year OF his service, have some
what changed their Views D o this
score, and think that II is well enough
to have an older man In congress, but
II n Is observing enough. Il is easy
TO preceive their motive In thus so
suddenly changing their views. The
fact Is those parties. while not can.
didates az this time. have their eyes
upon the ohlce, or future aspirations
In that line. and they think. and very
properly, too, that their hopes win
stand a better chance OF being realized
with a comparatively older man as
opponent, and with a young man In
the position they think their hopes
would go gllmmering especially n
the young man develops the strength
that IA expected OF him.

the question OF selecting a new man

toward a Younger candidate than Mr..

the people have a right to keep the

One Of the Worst Assaults Known
John n. Robinson Attacked

An encounter with highwaymen on
a lonely road in Duchess Co, N. Y,
would have been preferable TO the
experience through which Mr.. John
II. Robinson, of Manchester Bridge,
N. Y, actually passed. In the former
case he would doubtlessly have been
quickly relieved Of his watch and
money, and would have been left in
a more or less bruised and dazed
state by the roadside. But the loss
Of %valuables would have been rel0

he would have recovered from inju.
ries and shock. Besides, such an at.
tack would not be soon, II ever, re.
peated.
AS it was, however, the assaults
from which he suffered occurred three
timea cost him great loss Of time
and money and brought him to the
very verge Of death. Told by him
self, his story is as follows:

The chinese Love For the zisxag

The Chinese Love For the Zigxag.
The straight line is an abomination
to the Chinese. They endeavor to
avoid it in their streets and buildings
and have banished it completely where
country field paths are concerned.
They will always substitute curve
whenever possible, or they will torture
1t into zigzag.
In districts not subject to the infiu-
ence of the foreigner the houses and
temples are characterized by curved,
often peaked, roofs, ornamented with
fantastic notifications of the myriad
stroke pattern" The inhabitants of
such regions are soon found to have a
mental world to correspond. The
straight line is secuted. They think in
curves and ZigZags. To the Chinese
mind the straight line is suggestive of
death and demons 1t belongs not to
the heaven above or to the earth be-
meath. In true horizon line are seen
the 'undulations of the dra gon." There
fore, argue the Chinese, the straight
line pertains to hades.-Contemporary
