his disgust with certain magazine arti-
cles which represent the government
to be honeycombed with corruption
and members of the senate to be GRIM
inals who ought to be behind the bars.
The president has already established
beyond all question that he is the
sworn enemy Of the CRATER, but he has
no patience with the writer's and mag
azines that would give the impression
that every other man in the public
service is a CRATER. He regards the
indiscrlminate SANDER of public serv-
ants as nothing less than a crime, and
recently declared that men who would
deliberately misrepresent other men
and attack public officials without the
warrant OF facts were no better than
criminals
IF I had 20 choose between a thief
and a liar" he said recently, Il believe
| would choose the thief, for you would
know where to find him, but you don't
know where to locate the. liar and the
damage he can do" The president is
in the habit of comparing the writer's
OF anonymous and unfounded attacks
upon the senate and other government
bodies to the character in Bunyan's
Pilgrims Progress who welded the
muck rake. They gather all the dirt
and filth and can see none of the good
that surrounds. They delight in be-
smlrching characters and writing SEN
sattonal stories in order to sell their
papers and magazines. This class OF
writer's, the president declares, is do
ing more harm to the cause of eradi-
eating graft from public life than any
other force

newspaper, the Pail Mall Gazette, has
shown of late indications of his in
creasing bitterness. When a/few days
ago it accused Mr.. Winston Churchill,
a:scion of the great Marlborough fam
lily, OF: being "Blenheim pup" and not
too deftly intimated that he was not
'house-broke," British aristocrats
opened their eyes. 1t was new meth

Astor's bitter quarrel with former
editor of his paper, Mr.. Gust, is still
famous in English journalism. His
quarrel with his rural neighbors about
the closing of certain walks on his es-
tate at Cliveden is famous in the an
nails of society. Altogether his has
been a fighting and an invariably de-
feated career
He is the richest Aston. His wealth
is 200 American millions. Yet he was
defeated in politics by the late Ros-
we'll P. Flower, who won a congress
seat away from him in a memorable
doodle campaign" in New York city.
His wife was defeated during her life

their letters thus addressed to them

The postmaster was naturally an
American. 1t was "up to him" to de-
eide the controversy. After these
three defeats Mr. Astor went to Eng
land and became violent Tory. His
Journalistic remark to Winston
Churchill, indeed, indicates that he
has become a violent enough Tory to
be a thorn in the flesh rather of his
party associates than Of his opponents.

Following is a. copy of the concluding
paragraph of a long letter, dated March
II, 1906. reciting history Of the matter,
received by DR.. S. B. Hartman from Hon.
J. w. Yerkes, Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, which explains itself:
by. reason of the changes made in the
formula under which Peruna is now pro-
duced and placed upon the market, and
by reason Of the analyses made in this
Bureau, and the opinion Of. the Surgeon
General Of the Public Health and Marine
Hospital Service, above quoted, this Office
is of opinion that Peruna when prepared
according to the formula now used con-
tains sufficient drugs to render the prep
aration one beyond the ruling of this Of
fee of date September IL, 1905, and there
fore persons compounding and selling same
will not be required to secure a special
tax stamp, either. as rectifer, wholesale
dealers or retail dealers of spirituous or
vinous liquors"

and his head on his hand, and he was
thinking of Phyllis far away in the
mountains with her husband The Ia
BILE was piled with books several
stood open invitingly-and a fair
white sheet of paper lsy on his blot

Presently the maid opened the door
and said:
There's a young woman, sir, ask
ing to see you; shall ! say you're en-
gaged?"
"A young woman?" Queried the
scholar. What sort of a young
woman"
We'll, sir" and the maid closed the
door behind her. She says she's
from the circus tent that's pitched on
the lot behind the school house"
From the circus?" repeated the
scholar. What can she want?"
She won't give her name or mes
sage, sir. Shall l say that you're
engaged, sir?'
The maid considered it the height
of impudence" that a hussy from the
circus should dare TO ask 10 see her
master. Fine doings, indeed, for such
as she to be asking for gentlemen, as
bold as brass!
The scholar poa Tered. then he said,
half to himself. Phyllis would like

You can show her in.
/ The maid departed. and presently
ushered a young woman into the room
and shut the door after her carefully.
The young woman advanced into the
middle of-the room and then stood
still awkwardly, and said nothing
She was tall, slight girl, attired in a
variety of garments, startling in hue,
and having apparently no connection
with one another. Her hair was
crowned by a hat OF portentous size,
adorned by several rather detected
looking feathers. But under the furne
bush of hair the face was oval and a.
most beautiful in its regularity Of Tee
lures and pure color.

Wild Deer in Ronakona Harbor

Yesterday afternoon an overseer en-

down company, while cut in launch,
saw a deer swimming in the harbor,
between Stonecutter's island and the
mainland. The animal was captured
and an examination showed that one
Of It's hind legs had been broken,
while blood was oozing from another
leg. The deer was removed to the
Water police station, where it was
killed. This deer is said to have
come from the mainland. How II came

known, but it is surmised II had been
shot by hunters and had taken to the

Chief No Shirt Longs for the Free
Mountain Air Again.
Chief No Shirt and about 100 Walla
Walla Indians among the Umatillas
desire to take their share of the tribal
funds and withdraw from the reserva-
ton to some place where they will be
allowed to live in the good old way
which prevailed before Indian agents
and department rules were known,
says East Oregonian.
The chief grievance of No Shirt is
that the government insists on legal
marriages, attendance Of children at
school, conformity to the rules of the
Indian department and progress in the
ways of civilization.
The call of the wild is echoing deep
ly in the heart of No Shirt. He longs
for the free mountain air, the untram-
meled liberty of the hills and the
patriarchal roaming with family, goods
and warriors as the savage inclination
might dictate.
The letters of civilization chafe the
old chieftain. The yoke of the white
man hangs heavily upon his neck and
he rebels at the rigid rules Of Wash
ington.
But despite the call of the wild in
his heart No Shirt will be reconciled
to his lot. His people have some of
the richest land in the county. His lit
tie handful of indictments is dwindling
year by year. Civilization is making
swift and unfailing inroads into his
savage influence and soon his people
will finally embrace, without one ling
ering remonstrance of savagery, the
full code of civilization. and while they
may never become complete citizens
they will be rated as al excellent type
Of Indian citizenship.
The influence of the white man will
have much to do in transforming the
old chieftain and his people. Bad
white men prejudice the savage
against civilization. The Indians re-
| member the evil influence of one white
rascal more wildly than the good in
| 1uences of dozen good white men.
| Therefore the white man is RESPONSE
BILE largely for the salvation and uplift
of the Indian.
The call of the wild will echo in vain
in No Shirts savage life. He is on the
upward path. His little remonstrances
are but the infeX action of the savage
nature which is not yet fully subdued.
