Russia Is q Monarchy.

The longing for liberty in the hearts
Of the Russians became 80 strong and
their demands became 90 insistent.
that at last oxar Nicholas surrendered
and the sutocrscy Of Russia no longer
exists. Something had to give way
either with the car or the Ievolu-
tionists. They now have a constitu.
tional monarchy with a representative
form of government.
Sergius J. Witte, who was the lead.
ing diplomat in the recent peace con-
ference at Portsmouth, and who won
for himself the respect of the American
people by his universal tact and good
judgment, has been appointed presi-
dent minister, and has the work OF
shaping the new government under
his personal supervision.
The surrender of Emperor Nicholas
is SO complete that it is difficult to
grasp the full significance of what it
means for Russia and for the world.
His message is found in another col
umn of this paper.
Instead Of being merely an advisory
or suggesting body, the national as.
sembly is to have legisla tive powers
and the suffrage is to be enlarged so
that the assembly will fairly represent
the Russian people.
The event OF the past few weeks
have evidently taught the car that
the parting Of the ways had come, and
that he was fighting a losing battle
in resisting the people. For centuries
the loyalty OF the Russian peasant 20
"little father" resisted all attempts
to weaken it. But At last, if not alto.
gether gone, 1t is gone. The granting
of civic liberties, if honestly carried
out, will do much to restore it, and
with witte as prime minister, there
seems every liklihood that the new
order Of things will be made success.
fully effective.

There is probably no class OF prop.

value as the buildings OF a great
exposition. As an example we have
the beautiful Washington state build
ing at Portland, which cost $35, 900
to construct, and is now offered for
sale for 81 900. A number Of Seattle
capitalists will probably purchase it,
tear down and remove it to Seattle,
where it will be kept until the pro.
posed Alaskan exposition becomes a
certainty, and in 1907 1t will again be
resurrected and used on that occasion.

Preacher Goes Wrong.

Rev. James Edmunds OF Portland,
broke forth in a fresh place at the
Baptist Sunday school convention In
Spokane last week and gave forth a
lot Of froth snent the old soldiers.
Here are some of the vaporings Of this
pusillanimous divine -
ITO shoulder . gun and 60 out and
shoot somebody is now held up as the
seme Of patriotism. And we hold up
che veterans, who come back and dissi-
pate themselves with drink and riotous
living, ss the models OF patriots when
shey march in procession. The day
hss gone past when l will hurrah for
parade Of veterans stepped in
tobacco and whiskey."
The Reverend" James e. had best
keep bis shirt on. Today we are q
astion Of something like $4,000, 900
people, and once or twice year we
srs privileged to look upon about
$1,000 remaining veterans Of the civil
Wat and grsy-haired members Of the
Grand Army OF the Republic march
in line Of parade. Those 10000 old,
bent, crippled patriots are all that re-
maine to represent a mighty army
that fought for the life OF the nation
chat fought against treason and rebel
lion and broke the shackles from
nearly 1000, 900 slaves.
Tho "Rev." James E. and the rest
Of 10 might not now be enjoying our
pursuits OF happiness in a land Of
prosperity if it had not been for these
self-ssme veterans whom he throws 90
much stigma upon because they are
"steeped in tobacco and whiskey. "
He further compared them with
esndits who would "shoulder a gun
and 60 out and shoot somebody"
In behalf OF the old soldiers, dead
and living, We protest that such an
unjust, cowardly attack is allowed by
. cheap pulpit-pounder with a bag
tull oil wind and vacancy in his
head. He is . dishonor to his pro-
fsssion and the cause OF Christianity.
Any old soldier that would want such
IN obtuse cipher and "booby" as the
gentleman ~ Of cloth has advertised
Aimself to be, to stand in line and
hurrsh for them as they pass by,
would be Immediately court martialed
b. bis disgusted comrades. Who
would want to cheer a gang OF young
upstarts like the "Rev." James E.
u enough could be found for parade.
The gentleman shows signs OF vio-
,snce. and the &. A. B. boys ought to
furnish him with private sanitarlum
whore he could confine himself when
b felt one OF these spells coming on.
But the sanitsrium ought to be given
him brick Ut a time.
