Climate in Philippines.

When the treaty with Spain by which
we acquired the Philippines was under
debate in 1898, ex-United States Sen
ator Edmunds in public speech af-
firmed that the climate of those islands
was so fatal to a white man that
no American could expect to live there
and bring up family. AT that time
the Oregonian quoted the fact that
Englishmen had lived many years in
a worse climate-that of tropical India;
that Macaulay was able to do hard
legal work in Calcutta when the mer-
curry stood at 90 degrees above zero;
that Thackeray was born in India,
where his parents had lived for many
years, and that Lord Roberts had cam
paigned over forty years in India.
Secretary of War Taft is over six feet
and weighs 800 pounds-not a very
good subject to endure a tropical eli
mate-and yet he returned from the
Philippines in perfect health, and he
suggests that the newspapers "can
help the American Government by de.
nying the lies circulated about the
terrible climate there" OF course, no
man of common sense fails to adjust
himself and his habits to his environ
ment. No man wears the same cloth
ing in winter or summer in western
Oregon that he would wear in western
Massachusetts,. There are vast areas
of country in the United States where
no white man can live long because
of malaria. Neither the bottom lands
of the Mississippi nor the swamps of
South Carolina, where negroes can live,
are healthful for a white man. There
are, doubtless, such lands in Cuba. in
Porto Rico, in Africa, in India and in
the Philippines; but it is not neces-
sary that white men should pick out
patch of malarial country for
MISUNDERSTANDING Oregonian.

WITNESSED GREAT CHANGES.
Veteran Newspaper Man Comments on
New Newspaper Conditions.

Veteran Newspaper Man Comments on
New Newspaper Conditions.
Ethan Allen Snively, a veteran news
paper man of Illinois, recently delivered
an address before the members of the
Illinois Press Association, that has at,
tracted considerable attention. Mr.
Snively because of his unusual long
experience in newspaper work was in
position to speak with authority upon
the changes he has witnessed in the
newspaper field in his State and incl
IDENTITY upon the difference between the
old and new journalism.
In his address he said:
"The day is past when the editor of
the average Illinois newspaper had Il
mortgage on his property and his
opinions and protected the former by
bending the latter to the behest of
petty politicians.
To-day the average editor in this
State is an independent business man,
owns his printing plant and his home,
and conducts his business and pleases
himself just as any other business man
does.
THE party lash in the hands of the
local boss who hopes TO profit by his
control of the newspaper in some
scheme for his own enrichment has no
terrors for the newspaper man of to-
day, because he is conducting a BUSH
ness on business principles and is reap
ing such a rewards as comes to the
man who has conscientiously done his
duty.
eff here and there can be found a
newspaper which falls below the
standard, if you find paper whose
editorial opinions are on the market, if
you find one whose course renders it
a menace to the decency and good order
of the community, you will not find it
a member of our association.
"Never has there been a period in
the worlds history when the press
welded such an influence and never
was there a time when there was so
much Independent thought and ac-
tion.'

A Detested Plant.

No sort of bird, beast, or creeping
thing will touch a castor-oil plant 1t
seems to be a rank poison to all the
animal world. Even goat will starve
before biting off a leaf, and a horse
will sniff at it and turn up his upper
lip as though it had the most detes-
table odor on the face of the earth.
Army worms and the locusts will pass
it by, though they may eat every other
green thing in sight, and there is no
surer way to drive moles away from a
lawn than to plant few castor beans
here and there. Even the tobacco
worm will refuse to be fed on its
leaves.
There is hardly another instance in
natural history of plant being so uni
versally detested by the animal world.

WISE WORDS.
49,
BY B. J. FREDERICKs.

Lots of things he doesn't want come
to the man who is impatient.
The time to deny yourself of any
thing is when you have plenty.
When a man is popular only with
widows he isn't anybody's first choice.
It's fortunate thing for the average
man that all his prayers are not an
swered.
The man who says that there is no
time for pleasure is as big fool as the
fellow who has no time for serious
thought. 1t is the clever man who
knows the happy medium.
1t would really be worth a great deal
to the young if they could only have
their full value measured out % them
by a strong, forceful measurer. The
great trouble is that we are short of
nleasurers. .&..,.~.ns~,..r,
Years ago there was saying, "spare
the rod and spoil the child" If We
are to judge somewhat from the pres
ent men of maturity, we should not
hesitate to say that the rod must have
been broken entirely and thrown away.
For fifty years the bringing up of
our children has been too frequently
intrusted to strangers. 1t is a mistake
to think parents duty ends with the
feeding and clothing of their children,
and that the rest is for the State to do.
There is something quite as essential
as book learning; and it cannot be
learned in the schoolroom. Looking
around me | find, all too sadly, that
that something is imperfectly known,
and in many instances entirely un-
known in many households Is it any
wonder that the very atmosphere is
surcharged with selfshnoss and indif-
ference?

Good Roads Getting Into Politics.

The contest for nomination to Con-
gress between Lieutenant Hobson, the
hero of the attempt to bottle up Ger
vera's fleet at Santiago, and Repre-
sentative Bankhead, of Alabama, has
attracted wide attention. But it is
not generally known that the ques-
ton of National aid to road improve
ment was one of the leading issues
in the campaign. Lieutenant Hobson
strongly opposed the measure as un-
democratic and unconstitutional,
while he talked in favor Of great ap-
preparations for the navy. Mr. Bank
head, on the other hand, argued that
to aid the States in improving their
roads would be better and wiser
use of the National revenues. This
argument took with the voters and
MIR. Bankhead won the nomination.

The Rays of old Sol May Do Harm az
well as Good.
While the rays of the sun possess
stimulating md beneficial effect in
disease. and can be used with advan-
tage as a therapeutic agent, yet ac-
cording to recent investigations, they
also may act injuriously and cause
disease That there is a difference
in the therapeutic value between the
actinic rays, or those located at the
violet end of the spectrum, and the red
rays was appreciated by Finsen, and
the former were used in the treatment
of such skin diseases as lupus vulgaris,
or tuberculosis of the skin, while the
latter were found effective in cases of
smallpox. One of the most recent re-
searches in this department is by Pro-
fessor Fermi, and is given in late
number Of the Archiv fur Hygiene. In
these experiments large number of
human subjects were exposed to direct
sunlight for varying periods, and in a
large percentage of cases it was found
that there resulted the following set Of
symptoms: Cephalagia (headache),
dryness of the nasal mucosa, snuffling,
coryza (cold in the head, pharyngitis,

Maryland has just joined the list
of States working under the State aid
plan. The Legislature has appropri-

the State in improving their roads.
This distribution among the counties
is to be made on the basis of road mile
age.
Maryland is also the first State to

day selected was April 18th. Director
Dodge, of the Office of Public Road
Inquiries, was the orator of the day
at the celebration given by the State

Queen Elizabeth's Ambassador to Russia.


Sir Jerome Bowes, Queen Elizabeth's
Ambassador to Ivan the Terrible Car
of Russia, in 1888, had an exciting
time. Ivan had killed his own son
few years earlier in a fit Of passion,
and was no easy character to deal
with. The Gear saw fit to disparage
the English Queen, whom, he declared,
"he did not reckon to be his fellow"
there being those who were her bet
tiers. Bowes could not stand this sort
Of thing, and pluckily asserted that his
princess was as great as any in Chris
tendon. "What! AS great as the En-.
peror of Germany" demanded Ivan.
Why" answered Bowes, with a fine
assumption of scorn, "cuch is the great.
ness of the Queen, my mistress, that
the King, her father, had not long
since the Emperor in his pay in his
wars against France" The Car was
at first more furious than ever, but in
time he took Bowes into his favor.

ADVANTAGE OF sUBsoILING.

ADVANTAGE OF SUBSOILING.
Subsoiling has the advantage of
loosening the hard pan below the sur
face. 1t may be injurious on some
soils to turn the subsoil up, but it can
do no harm to pulverize it. This is
done by having a subsoil pillow follow
in the furrow that is being turned.
The loosening of the subsoil permits
the roots of the plants to go deeper,
thus deriving more moisture and plant
food. Subsoiling should be accom-
panied with thorough drainage, or the
land will be lacking in warmth.

will decide not to do it; and by so de-
Gliding they will handicap their diaries

The fact is, we cannot afford not to
keep our cows in good flesh and heart.
We will be the ones to suffer if we do.
There is theory that nothing a COW
