5S,OOO MEN ARE OUT
NEARLY AS MANY AGAIN MAY GO
 ON STRIKE.
Russian Authorities Adopting Every PRecautiOn and Sc Far There Has Been No Clashes of Troops
 and Strikers.

St. Petersburg, Jan. 1S.-The strike situation Is becoming very grave. To- night there are 5S.000 men out on strike and the movement is spreading to the big cotton mills, which employ over 50,0O0 operatives.
 Meetings have been called for to- morrow at which the socialistic dem- ocratie leaders will use their utmost endeavors to convert the strike into 8 vast political demonstration, which at the present crisis might have most se- rious developments.
 The authorities are adopting every precaution to avoid an outbreak. but the socialistic democrats are spurrine on the strikers and there is great dan ger of a collision with the troops. which would be almost sure to be fol- lowed by red flag demonstrations ac- compaHied by great bloodshed. The city Is full of sensational rumors and rioting is generally expected.
 In conjunction with the Epiphany eel duration. which will. occur tomorrow. the meetings of strikers will make the day 2 critical one for the police Thus far, however. the strike has preserved a purely economic aspect. The facto- ries are surrounded by cordons of po- Iice and patrols of infantry march about the snOw-covered plains.
 The strikers are led by priest named Gopip. who is idolized by the workmen and who represents them in negotiations with the employers.
 This is the first great strike in Northern Russia. Hitherto the work men have been unorganized and pre- vious strikes in St. Petersburg have not involved more than 10000 men. The strike leaders claim to have funds enough to hold out for a month. but this is doubted. and the lack of money and the privations of winter and per haps government interference are ex- pected to make the strike short and sharp The strikers, who at first de- clined the offer of financial sunnort by the socialistc democrats of Mos COW on the ground that they wished to sharply sdifferentiate the walkout from a political movement. are reported to have accepted the Moscow contribu- lions.
 The strike has an important bearing on the war in the Far East, as every days delay in completing the govern ment's contracts with the iron works means the loss of precious time in the starting of the third Pacific squadron.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It is in
 Preserving Health and Beauty. .,

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient disintectant and purifier in nature, but few realize It's value when taken into the human system for the same cleans ing purpose.
 Charcoal is remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all. but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and car- ries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking. drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and inn proves the complexion. it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic,
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels: it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal. and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large. pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health. better complex ion, sweeter breath and purer blood. and the beauty of 1t is. that no possi- ble harm can result from their contin- ued use. but on the contrary, great benefit
 A Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoal. says: T ad- wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels. and to clear the complex ion and purify the breath. mouth and throat; also believe the liver is great ly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense patent preparation. yet be- lieve I get more and better charcoal than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets "

Summit Celebrated.

Perhaps the liveliest and most
enjoyable day in the history of
that village was fourth of July,
at Summit. Never has a larger
crowd gathered there than was
present at the celebration Tues
day and everything passed off in
a highly satisfactory manner.
The day was ideal and for miles
around came families to partici-
pate in the affair, and show by
their presence that they were
loyal subjects of Uncle Sam.
The exercises began at $50 when
the parade started. Following
this there was music by the
band, singing of America" by
the crowd; prayer, T. T. Vincent
vocal duet, Miss Strouts, Misses
| Petit; reading Declaration Of
independence, Fred Hill; "Star
Spangled Banner, audience;
oration, T. T. Vincent; music,
band; dinner. The subject OF
! Mr.. Vincent's Grafton was, "Our
National Heritage, = good
theme that was well handled by
the speaker. The effort is said
to be a most eloquent one, ano
that it met with hearty applause
from the audience need hardly
be stated.
The afternoon program, which
began at 1:30, consisted of {
drill by the school children; sew
eral well rendered recitations,
vocal solos and band selections
all of which were much enjoyed
The celebration was, in fact, {
a decided success, and one thai
will ever be a pleasant memory
for those who attended.

THAT LOVING CUP.

When Mayor Williams of Port
land, retired from office the
councilmen Of that city presented
him with their respects and good
wishes and in addition a Loving
Cup. It may not be saying too
much to assert the opinion that
the mayor most priced the latter
gift. He accepted it with every
sign of appreciation.
Shortly thereafter a bill was
presented the city dads of Port
land that they might pay for the
gift to the mayor. Then came to
light the astonishing fact that
various members Of the council
had planned for the City OF
Portland to pay for the gift they
had presented the mayor. The
mayor keenly felt his position
and frankly acknowledged that
the situation was unique, in fact,
beyond him, and that he knew
not what to do.
When confronted with the
matter the councilmen declared
that they would be only too glad
to make. up the price of the cup.
However, up to a day or two age
the councilmen are reported te
have failed. to have produced the
coin for the cup.

the whereabouts of E. P. Gref-

was supposed to have gone to
Portland but inquiry failed
to show a trace Of him in that

seems a matter calculated to
worry his many friends. The

FOUND GUILTY.

No man is above the law in
reality, and no man should be
allowed to think himself superior
to a power which governs his
fellows. The same law must
govern the high and the low
born. There can be no two sets
of laws relating to the same
offense for the patrician
and one for the plebeian.
To the honor of Oregon this
is proved true in the case of
United States Senator John H.
Mitchell. For more than 80
years Mitchell was the power be-
hind the throne in Oregon-in
political circles his word was
law; he had but to will and obe-
dience followed. Despite all he
has been in this state, in the
United States, in fact, twelve
men of Oregon have found him
guilty. Aside from Burton, of
Kansas, Senator MitchelPs case
is an isolated one. During re-
cent years half a dozen senators
have been indicted, but aside
from these two there has re
suited no convictions.
On many sides comes the ex-
preston, "Too bad!" etc. Yes,
too bad! But the pity of it all
is that a man so high in public
life should prove guilty. Of his
guilt there is small question in
in the minds Of most men.
How the mighty has fallen
Strange that a man of his stand
ing, and years of experience
his great reputation and many
notable qualities and attributes
should, in the declining years o1
his life, commit an act that will
place a blight on his name, {
name for many years honored by
people of every walk in life.
