Cleanliness and cheerfuIness, sun
Youths Companion. A boy who had
foes of disease-appear to have won
a notable victory at the Louisiana
state home for lepers, says the
shine and fresh air-four inveterate
for four years been a leper, and for
a year and half an inmate of the
home, apparently on the road to the
grave. has been discharged cleansed
of the disease. His skin has again
became white and his sores have
healed. Several other inmates are
said to be almost ready for discharge,
and others improving. The cure is
attributed not to any new medicine
or surgical work, but to the four ele-
ments of wholesome living, cleanli-
ness, cheerfulness, sunshine and air
1t is said to be the first recorded sci
entific cure. There are about 500
lepers in Louisiana less than so Of
whom were sheltered at the retreat
Since the cure, however, 800 acres of
the Indian Head plantation have been
bought, and a broad attempt will be
made to stamp out the disease. APP
plications have been received from
other southern states ana from for
eign countries for admission to the
home.

gonian continues to tear the bleeding
hide from the quivering back of Sem
ator John II. Mitchell, says the Ore
gon Journal, Not satisfied that he
has been convicted and disgraced, that
he is no longer factor in politics,
that his public career is ended and
that his span of life in the ordinary
course of events is nearly run, it con-
tinues its shameless and dastardly at
tacks upon defensclcss and feeble
old man who has been So often hon
orcd by his state and who, whatever
else may be said of him, for years sus-
tained its dignity in the halls of con-
gress and did unnumbered favors to
his constituents of high and low de-
gree Nothing more vindictive, malev-
clent and indefensible has ever been
printed in an American newspaper.
No matter how intense the hatred, no
matter how bitter the rivalry, there
always comes a time when every in
dividual with a spark of manhood in
him voluntarily draws the line and
says, Thus far shall | go ana no fur
ther." No man who measures up to
the meanest standard OF manhood
will pursue his victim beyond the
grave and no man who has in him a
drop of the milk of human kindness
will torture a helpless and writhing
victim whose power of retaliation has
vanished never to return.
And why this malevolence follow
ing so quickly on the heels of the
poisonous kiss of peace? Who sought
out Mitchell when he emerged tri-
umphant against the bitterest opposi-
tion from his last senatorial COM
paign? Was it not the editor of the
Oregonian? Was it not he who pro-
posed to bury the hatchet, who desig-
mated the fight as a personal one and
suggested that the old men hereafter
live in peace and amity? 1t was he
and none other, as every well-inform-
ed resident of Oregon knows the fact
and can detail the attending circum-
stances. And why this sudden right
about face? The explanation is not
far to seek nor hard to find. 1t finds
its illumination in the passionate edi-
torial craving for a seat IN the senate
Peace was sought as matter of cal
culation. With Mitchell arrayed on
his side the senatorship would fall
into the editorial lap like an overripe
plum. But when that strangest OF
all senatorial contests came about
when the editor disclaimed with heat
and constancy that which he most
eagerly sought and the ridiculous eli
max finally came with the "Cassius
save me or l sink dispatcn to George
c. Brownell, then did it become cleal
why the pretense of burying the
hatchet with Mitchell was made-ir
the hope of securing his aid to make
Scott his colleague. And so the unfor'
givable offense was committed. Nit
chefs strength did not go for Scot
and now forsooth. when other citizens
who had never been either his po
/ lltical or personal friends feel for hin
nothing but sympathy to this one maj
alone in all Oregon is left the congen
! ial task of kicking a PROSTATE human
being and making the well<in rini

The payment of $50,O00,OOO on ac-
count of the Panama canal, and a
loan of more than $4,5OO,O00 to the
st. Louis exhibition, caused a deficit
Of more than s41, ,OOO,0 900 IN the treas
ury operations of the year ended
June 30. That is not a bad showing.
But for the extraordinary expendi-
lures mentioned, there would have
been a surplus of $13,250,0O0, which
is almost enough. A few millions
more would have been acceptable for
the reduction of the debt, but mas
much as the interest on that debt
amounts to only 36 cents a year for
each Of the inhabitants OF the coun-
try. 1t imposes no burden that need
cause any statesman to pass sleep

PIRATES OR MARTYRS?

believe no right-minded person
who has read even htrle of those
very fragmentary reports which we
name history. would object to being
Blackboard were unlovely characters
of free-booting propensities, thus the
word usually implies some reproach,
though the same freebooting acts
done under cover of law raise men to
eminence. on the other hand, Ad
miral John Paul Jones, whose mere
bones have been brought to this coun-
try in a sort of idolatry, better given
to his name than to his bones. was
called a pirate. Sir Francis Drake was
called a pirate by the Spanish, but to
Queen Elizabeth he was her incom-
parable admiral, says Charles Erskine
Word in the Pacific Monthly.
Traitor, too, is a hard term. Yet,
George Washington was branded with
it. AS for rebel-why, the rebels Of
the world are such a host that 1 can
not even hint at them. Oliver Crom-
well and Benjamin Franklin are mere
examples. John Brown was hung by
due process of law for rebel and a
rioter, a leader of mon. Today. it
is said, his soul is marching on.
Pirate, traitor rebel and such like
words, depend on time and circum-
stances whether they be of praise or
reproach. But 1 was surprised to see
the very general tone of hatred which
ran through our press comments on
the uprising in Odessa, and the mu-
tiny of the Kniaz Potemkin. There
is no objection to the use Of the words
"mutiny" or "rebellion"-they simply
describe the fact of a revolt against
organized authority. They mark an
effort to overthrow tyranny and to
arrive at justice. We of English blood
ought to set up altars at Runnymede,
Marston Moor and Bunker Hill to the
worship of Rebellion and Mutiny; by
them we have inherited all that makes
life worth living and by them others
in other lands and our children shall
inherit more and more freedom.
When think Of Russla's despotism,
her voiceless dungeons under the
Neva, her peasantry treated like cat
blood because he dared to voice a
plea for food, artisans and shopkeep-
ers Of Odessa moved down by ma
chine guns plighted word broken, and
men who had surrendered on the faith
marched out in squads of so and shot
to death, insolent grand dukes and
feudal aristocracy repeating the old
tyrannies of France, 1 wonder at our
intelligent Journalistic headlines
"The Pirates Forced to Surrender;
Fifty of the Ringleaders Shot. More
of the Rebels to Be Executed as an
Example" Machine Guns and Cos
sacks moving down the mob Of reb-
els in Odessa. Quiet will soon be re-
stored"
The quiet of the graveyard.
Now, for myself, would have call
ed all these people patriots, long suf
ferings martyrs. But that is wha
todays pirates" and Rebels" will
mean in after times, and the intelli
gent journalist will still discover them
Only out of change comes progress
Only out Of revolt comes freedom.
