Our Congress.

When comparisons are made between
America and continental Europe we
can find much Of which to be proud.
Our growth. our wealth, our industries,
our resources, our energy, oil make
fiattering comparison with average Eu.
ropean conditions. But l believe In
making such comparisons there is no
one thing of which we have the right
to be more proud than Of the congress
OF the United States. Better than any
continental parliament, 1t represents
the people The one legislative body OF
the world that Is In any way comparn-
Bile to ours is the parliament Of Great
Britain. In character. intellect, meth
DDS. dignity and in the truthfulness
with which each represents the people
the British parliament and the United
States congress stand In class quite
apart and above any Of the parliaments

Fines For Church shirkers.

.vided that any person absenting him
self from his church on Sunday with
out sufficient excuse should be fined
twelvepence for each absence and Inn
prisoned in default Of distress on his
goods until the fine was paid was re-
vived in 1898. A report Of the inspect
ors Of prisons contains list Of eleven
persons in Lancashire fined and i'm
prisoned under the act between, Feb.
II, 1889, and May 10, 1840. In one case
a laborer was in prison for ten weeks
(until released by order Of the home
secretary after being convicted in a
penalty Of / shilling, with IA shillings
costs, for having been absent from
church a single Sunday. This act was
repealed. so far as regards Roman
Catholics, in 1874, and wholly in 1848.

Turkish and virginian Leafs Are va

How many people even among the
most confirmed smokers know what is
the difference between Turkish and
Virginia tobaccosl
The smoker, of course, can tell you
which Is which at the first whiff. but
n you ask him what the original dis.
tinction is between the two he viii tell
you that one comes from Turkey and
the other from the States.
He is wrong. You could grow Turk.
ish and Virginia tobaccos In the same
field. for they are merely two different
varieties Of the same plant. Turkish
Il the leaf Of Nicotiana rustica. while
Virginia Is Nicotiana augustipolla. OF
course the two are often blended by to-
bacconists.
Again, what constitutes the differ
ence between ''strong" and mild to.
baccosi II is simple enough The strong
product is so manufactured that 1t
burns slowly, the result being that the
contained nicotine is distilled In an un
altered state. Mild tobaccos are those
which burn well. and thus their con-
tained nicotine is consumed or decom-
posed, with the result that less mar
cotic smoke Is formed.
We often hear cheap cigars spoken Of
as cabbage leaves" and doubtless
many people believe that these are &c,
tually adulterated with other sub
stances than tobacco. Often In such a
weed the outside wrapper is noticed to
be patched with pale green, and this
fact is held proof Of the cabbage leaf
libel. The piece of greenlsh leaf is real
tobacco which has been plucked unrlpe
"or not properly cured. 1t is only to be
found in thin, poor leaf.-London Ex-
press.

USE OF FRENCH WORDS.
A Practice That Does Not Help tn,
English Language.

A Practice That Does Not Help the
English Language.
Why do people persist In using
French words when there are good old
English words to serve the purpose!
1t is habit that is growing daily. For
instance, at dinner people give you
menu" instead of bill Of fare"
though the items are such English
dishes as boiled cod, roast beef and ap.
pie tart. One is accommodated with a
serviette instead Of napkin, an Eng
lish word. but originally of French or
igin. as Is the Scotch word napery.
used for household linen. When you
enter a shop you are served with cor
sets instead Of stays, costumes by a
costumiere instead of dresses by a
dressmaker. "Blouses" take the place
of shirts or waists, and hose are Of
fered for stockings. The former word
is, however. English. At the theater
we have programmes instead Of play
bills and matinees in place of afternoon
performances. ToQues are adjusted
with as much ease as hats, and we eat
in a restaurant as cheerfully as in q
dining room. There are, OF course, I'M
'translatable words which must be
used. but our good old English Ian
guage is rapidly becoming hotch-
potch of foreign words, while telegra-
ply is doing its best to Gust all the
crisp and racy Saxon speech. When
ever possible let us determine to use
an English instead Of a French word,

BETTER MAIL FACILITIES.
Mixed Train TO Walla Walla Now
Carries Mail From PendletOn.

One of the greatest conveniences
for the towns along the branch line
of the O. r. & n. between this city
and Walla Walla, that has been in
stituted for some time, is the order
for the mixed branch train running
between this city and Walla Walla
to carry mail for Walla Walla and
intermediate points.
This gives the county towns two
mails each way each day and ena-
bles the residents of all those towns
to get the evening papers from PEN
dletOn on the day of publication.
Mail for this train must reach Pen
dleton postoffice by o'clock, in or
der to go out on the mixed train,
which leaves at $50.
The readers of the East Oregonian
will be greatly benefited by this or
der as it will enable them to get
their paper each evening Immediate
ly after publication, thus giving them
news II hours later than that furn-
ished by the Portland Oregonian or
the Spokesman-Revie both of which
papers are issued in the morning II
hours before reaching the subscrib-
ers along the branch line.
