THE BARBARIAN AT HOME.

No need to go to Africa or Borneo
to find crude savages in a primitive
state of mentality and morals. You
can rub against them on the streets OF
Pendleton every day.
Yesterday two saloon men were dis
cussing the Sunday closing law, one
of them, highly respectable man,
was trying to induce the keeper of
well known dive to close on Sunday,
in a general agreement among the
saloon men without action on part of
the people or officials.
The divekeeper replied: 81 am going
TO keep my place open every damned
Sunday that comes, no matter what
these damned cranks say and no mat
ter what the law is. This is my bus
ness and I am going TO conduct it to
suit myself"
Maybe not Let us see.
But here is the point. The bold de-
fiance of the community and the laws
of the community by this man lacks
only thct he STRIP himself naked, take
rifle and run into the brush to place
him on the level with the most drn-
gerous savage yet uncaught in the
wilds of Africa.
He has no conception of the re-
sponsibllity which every civilized man
bears, no idea of srrrendering some of
his primitive selfishness and sovagery
in return for the civilized laws which
protect his life limb and property; no
conception of the rules of conduct
which underlie the structure of or
ganized society. Just plain, dressed
up savage: nothing more, nothing
less.
This fellow was born of a white
mother reared in a civilized home,
associated with men of high ideals
when a boy, perhaps, knows that laws
are necessary to preserve society, on
joys their protection as much as the
biggest man in the city, sees around
him every DAY the progress achieved
by the moral element, yet he has not
advanced above the state in which
nature placed mankind III the begin
ming.
He wears clothes, speaks the Eng
lish language, has the form of man
is endowed with the five senses. and
yet what more can one say, in COM
pairing him to the modern civilized
man?

WHAT GLAsGow's EXPERT SAYS

James Dalrymple, the Glasgow au-
thority on public ownership, who
came to this country by request of
Mayor Dunno Of Chicago to advise
with him, left for home on Wednes-
day.
While he has not yet made known
his final conclusions as result of his
examination of the railways of Chi
cago and other American cities, lie
unhesitatingly says that the municipal
ownership Of railways in this country
is not only feasible, but advisable;
that this presupposes that they will be
run upon a purely business-like basis;
that the government ownership of the
postoffice in this country works well
and there Is no reason why the con-
troll of the street railroads should not
work equally well and be kept equally
free from politics; that municipal
ownership of the railways and gas
plants of Glasgow and other cities OF
Great Britain does not develop graft
nor nolitical machines; that the pub
lie ownership Of railroads has ten
dencv to better the condition Of the
masses in every. way. And Dalrym-
pie knows what he is talking about

THE POOR MANS CAUSE.

A reader of the East Oregonian
named Cray. residing at Nolin, writes
complaining of the Discrimination
shown in the matter of enforcing the
fish laws of Oregon. Re says ts;e big
ditch and flume COMPANIES, sawmill
and mining companies and nther large
corporations nsing Oregon streams,
are allowed to violate the fish laws
without disturbance, but the small
farmer and Door man who jares to ap-
proach the limit of the law in any
particular Is a subject for prosecu-
tion and fire.
Mr.. Cray closes his letter by saying:
"Eut as I am but a poor man and
unknown, I will perhaps not receive
a hearing in your columns"
Here Mr.. Cray widely misunder-
stands the policy of the East Oregon
ian and misjudges the principles of
the paper.
No man is so poor or so obscure
as to be denied hearing in these col
umns IL his cause is Just and no man
is so big nor rich as to escape sharp
censure If he violates the law or over
steps mis- rights.
The East Oregonian well knows of
the discrimination in the enforcement
Of the laws in this matter. 1t believes
as does Mr.. Cray that the chief object
OF the officials vigilance is the little
fellow residing along the creeks and
rivers, who may catch 10 more fish in
a day than allowed. or who may di-
vert a paltry irrigating ditch without
properly equipping it with screen and
ladder, while the big corporations kill
fish by the millions, dam up streams
unfortunately and destroy spawn
and grown fish that have cost the
government large sums of money and
the game associations that are foster
ing the fish supply, large trouble and
expense.
It also believes as does Mr.. Cray,
whoever he is. that Justice demands
equal treatment for all kinds and
classes of people. If big man who
is rich and influential violates law,
"cinch" him as quickly as you would
an obscure "Rube" without a second
gallus to his name, not only in the vio-
lations of the fish laws. but in the
violation of every other law on the
statute books.
This is an age Of law violation Men
make a business of skilfully violating
laws, and yet retaining their respecta-
bility. It is time to put stop to 1t
or else declare a reign Of anarchy and
let everybody defy all law.

FACTS OF THE PHILIPPINES.

The recently published census OF
the Philippine islands issued by the
United States census bureau furnishes
the following interesting facts;
Total area, 127,S5S square miles,
embracing 342 islands. In comparison
this territory is about the size of the
New England states. New York and
New Jersey combined.
Total population, 7,635,o00: about
four times greater than 100 years ago.
Civilized population. 100000; un-
civilized and Wild $4,000; Ameri-
cans. S135; Chinese, 37,5OO; foreign
ers, $4,000.
Mixed blood only two-tenths of one
per cent of entire population. Eight
civilized native tribes. or which the
Visayans are the largest forming one
half of the entire civilized population.
They occupy the islands lying between
Luzon and Mindanao. The Tagalogs,
second. forming one-fifth of the en-
tire civilized population, occupy the
provinces in the vicinity of Manila.
Among the civilized tribes, the
Roman Catholic religion is predomi-
nant. Among the Moros, the Moham-
medan, while the wild tribes have no
religious belief.
There are 81 night schools in Ma
nila, with an enrolment of 1000 adult
natives striving to acquire the English
language.
In addition to the schools there are
Al newspapers. IL English. "a Span
ish, four native and one Chinese. OF
. this number 20 are dailies. Total cir
culation, 6S,2S6.
Twelve public libraries furnish the
reading matter from 4O19 books. half
of which are Spanish and one-fourth
English.
Seventy public hospitals care for
| the sick.
The transportation lines embrace
three street railways, horse power, and
one electric overhead trolley, with one
steam railroad four miles in length.

The reverse lever is moved by COM
pressed air, also controlled in the cab.
The high-pressure steam pipes are 5
inches, inside diameter, and pass down
from the steam dome on the outside
of the engine TO the high-pressure
valve chests. The exhaust from the
high-preesure cylinder, on each side.
passes forward through an outside
pipe to the low-presure cylinder. This
pipe is made up of a series of short
sections fitted together by ground
joints. At each end of the pipe is a
ball joint in order to give flexibility
to the pipe when the engine is on a
curve.
For this reason. as well as from the
manner i'm which the frame of the
front group of drivers is hinged to
the rear frame. just in front of the
high-pressure cylinders. the engine is
said to be "articulated" like a back
bone. thus doing away with the rig
idity that ordinarily characterizes a
locomotive. especially one of the Eng
lish type, calculated to run on straight
tracks.
The boiler of the big engine is un-
! usually large. The total heating sur
face is about 1886 square feet of
which 1886 square feet are in the 4S6
tubes in the boiler; each tube is 21
feet long and 2 IA inches in dame
ter. The heating surface in the fire
| box is more than 219 square feet.
| The CRATE area is 1872 feet The work
| ing steam pressure of the boiler is 235
pounds. The piston stroke is S2 in
ches. The height of the smokestack
from the track is 5 feet. The engines
tender has a coal capacity of Is tons
and a water capacity of 1000 gallons
When loaded the tender weighs 145,
900 pounds, making a total weight
engine and tender, of 479,500 pounds

OSTEOPATHY.
DIR. STILL ON FLUX AND DYSEN-
Terry.

Some of my greatest successes
have been in this line. One of my
earliest cases was a little boy of
four, at Macon, Mo. He was trudg-
ing along the dusty road with his des-
titute mother. Taking the little fell
low up, I began fumbling along the
spine. Some places I found hot, some
cold. Going deeper found rigid and
loose places in the muscles and lig-
aments of the entire back, while the
lower spinal muscles and tissues were
in a badly congested condition.
worked for few minutes on that
basis and told the mother to report
next day. She came the next morn
ing saying that her child was well.
Flux was then prevalent in Macon,
where I was visiting when this oc-
Cured. That mother brought other
sick children. AS near as can re-
member, had seventeen severe cases
of flux and cured all without drugs.
other cases of summer and fall dis
cases 1 was called to treat and soon
found myself burdened with a large
practice"

WITH THE PARAGRAPHER.

Don't be afraid of lightning. II 1t
hits you, you won't feel it.
Wars are generally provoked by
men who take no part in them.
Some one says that a pint of whis-
key often makes a peck of trouble.
If you have anything against a man
worth mentioning at all, mention 1t to
him. not to the neighbors.
Up at Minneapolis the people are
still drinking Mississippi river water
without sitting it, That's where they
get the microbes.
When saying your prayers. pray
that you may have the sense to al
ways exercise self-control. which Is
the mark of Christian and a gentle
man.
