The Seattle News says of the ap-
pointment of a commission by Gov
ernor Mead to investigate the coal
famine in that state:
Governor Albert f. Mead last night
appointed 10 of the state officials to
investigate the coal shortage. The
commission was named by the COVER
nor shortly after his arrival in the
city yesterday afternoon and the for
NAL appointment with full instructions

In order to meet the urgent de-
mands of the situation the members
of the commission were selected last

tribution Of coal by the mineowners.
Under the instructions of Governor
Mead the first steps to be taken by
the commission will be to ascertain
the method Of procedure. In a gen.

The Oregon Daily Journal in an in
terview from DR.. F. w. Vincent, ex-
mayor of Pendleton, makes some in
teresting comparisons between the
cost of city water in Portland and
Pendleton. The Journal says:
DR.. F. w. Vincent, Pendleton man
ager of the Northwest Gas G. Electric
pie are paying too much for their
water. He is a strong advocate of the
meter system. Several years ago
while mayor of Pendleton, DIR. Vincent
installed meters on every service pipe
in that city.
''It is the only just way of paying
for water" he said yesterday. ut
is cheaper for the average consumer
and is equitable to everybody, as you
pay for exactly what water you use.
when It was announced that the
consumers would have to buy meters
there were many protests at the ex-
pense. but people now understand that
1t is cheaper for them to have meters
and they are well satisfied. Under the
old system of flat rate the minimum
charge for a dwelling was $3.50. Now
It is 81, and hardly house in town
pays more than that. AS remember
1t, the meters cost about SO, and every
consumer in Pendleton had to buy
one, which was supplied by the city.
'The city owns the water system
and the well from which the water is
pumped. The Northwest Gas & Elec-
trio company contracts to pump the
water into the mains at the rate of
/ cent per 1000 gallons There is a
was.age which is hard to find, but
to learn Just what II is we will put
meter at the pump and find the diff
ference between the total amount
shown by the consumers meters and
the pump meter will give the wastage.
Decrease I'm Price
1--WE pump 100000 gallons daily
more or less. That costs the city s3,-
500 year. The two men employed
cost the city $165 a month Allowing
for depreciation, the water can be
supplied the consumer at less than s
cents per 1000 gallons I understand
that your heaviest consumers here pay
for water TN cents per 1000 gallons.
while the small consumer pays 80 to
so cents per 1000 gallons. 1t seems
to me that water supplied by gravity
as yours Is here can be furnished even
cheaper than II is handled by power
as at Pendleton. / can see no reason
why your rates here should be so high.
but 1t is necessary to put meters
on every service pipe; you can't meter
some consumers and not all of them.
/ don't take any stock in the proposed
scheme of paying water rates by taxa
tion. There isn't single good reason
for II.
"As to sprinkling, 1t is impossible
to force people to sprinkle only dur
ing certain hours. Under the flat
rate system in Pendleton sprinkling
was permitted only at certain times.
and as a result nobody got any pres
sure and the lawnes dried up. There
were too many people drawing from
one main at the same time.
"Under the meter system you can
sprinkle at any time you wish and
there is pressure enough for every
body. And the water hog does not
hide his hose under the bushes and let
II run all night-not IL he knows he
must pay for every gallon he uses
measured by meter"

4 pH11ADE1pH1A SURPRISE.

Philadelphia has been called slow and sleepy, but 1t has been known that she was thoroughly up to date in graft ing" and it has been taken for granted that she was looking well after the ed ucation of her young. But an educa- tional expert of Elizabeth, New Jersey, being commissioned by Philadelphia newspaper to investigate the schools of the city, shows appalling school con- ditions." His investigation shows that only 7S per cent, of the children of the city attend the public schools. Of these only seven-tenths of one per cent. pass through the high school; only 4,S per cent. reach it. Eighty-four per cent, leave before they have gone half way through the grammar school Sixty-six per cent. go only through the primary grades. Fifty-three per cent, stop at the second reader. The Philadelphia Ledger solemnly says the results are well-nigh incredible" and something must be done, "A population half of which cannot read with intelligence or write with ease is not fit to exercise self government, and cannot be expect ed to maintain it-nay among a people so ignorant as, according to Doctor shearer's figures, the oncoming genera tion of Philadelphia threatens to be, civilization itself cannot permanently endure"
 Here's a state of things. 1t wouldn't be much of pity if part of what has been called civilization in Philadelphia should fade out, but some civilization is needed there, and all wen-disposed people will hope that there will be edu- cation enough there to preserve the needed civilization.

WHAT DOES IT MEANT

What is the meaning of this constant talk that the female part of the human race in this country isn't as good as it used to be, or as it ought to be? Is it because mean and low men are busy making such talk with malice afore- thought, orcan there possibly be enough truth in it to justify it? The other day we read that a celebrated Hunga- fian professor had decided and said that the American woman was neither new nor womanly. Of course she pro- fesses to be both very decidedly and amply, and what she professes will be apt to go, at least with American men, farther than the assertion of skinny professor. By the way, we don't know that the professor is skinny, but per- haps he is.
 No sooner have we digested this dose than along comes some home testimony which seems to indicate that the Amer ican human female may not be all that she has been cracked up to be. An of- ficial of the juvenile court in Chicago asserts that the bad boy is passing and that in his place has come the bold, bad girl who is even worse than her prede- cessor.
 Perhaps this official doesn't know what he is talking about, Whether he does or not 1t is the mark of true hu- man American male to stick up for the female of his species, and he ought to do it whether she deserves 1t or not. Hadn't he?

FRANKLIN THE CITIZEN.

Franklin was particular about the way of doing that business. He was particularabout the way in which he made his money. He was not of that too familiar type of big business men who square extortion and oppression by philanthropy. He took no rebates
 When he first started his newspaper in Philadelphia, his rival was Bradford
 who in addition to publishing a paper
 was Postmaster General of the Col onies. Bradford used his authority AS Postmaster General to practically ex- elude Franklin's papers from the mail by forbidding the post riders to carry them. Franklin shortly after succeed ed Bradford as Postmaster General. Here was the opportunity to build a monopoly and crush his old rival. But the thought never seems to have enter ed his head that the newspaper busi-

AN AwAKENING GIANT

[ No account 9f this wonderful awak- ening can fail fo recognize the agency of Chang, the Wiceroy of Central China. A senior optimls in the Orient classic, his conversion3 to the new school of thought was accomplished by the vic tory of Japan ten years ago. Scarcely had the smokel of the battle cleared away when he twrote for his subordi- mates a book of instructions entitled Education, Chiha's Only Hope" Laid before the throne it had, along with Kang, not a little share in impelling the the young Emperor to enter on that precipitate career of reform which caused his downfall. Distributed by imperial command it also prepared the way for reform on national scale
 He has Japandse drill masters to train his troops, if necessary, to resist Japan, and he has had experts in the arts from America, Great Britain and Germany to prepare his people for a commercial conflict with the great nations of the West. The banks of the river in front of his capital Wuchang- lined for miles with cotton mills, hemp works silk filatures, glassworks, iron found- ries and powder mills, whose high chimneys proclaim the coming war When China can supply her own mark cts, foreign steamers will cease to as- eend the Yang -Tse- -Kiang.
 Going within the walls we are struck by the great number of fine school houses in foreign style that rise above the huts of the natives. Our clever vioeroy knows that the industrial arts have their root in science, and that science must be taught in schools, He thus proclaims from the housetops his gospel of the new education He has embodied it in a book of rhymes, which are sung by his soldiers to the beat of the drum and committed to memory by al lthe schol children in population of fifty millions.-Dr, W.

New Haven has had a real sensation for two or three days, and perhaps she is excusable for the way in which she has treated it. Probably she has been no more excited than other communi- ties would have been in the same cir cumstances. But there has been lot of loose and uniustifiable talk and some wicked talk, Wont 1t be a good plan now to 80 back to work and let the legal proceedings go on without the extra wild guessing and gossip?
 If we need any incentive to show a little more consideration for those who are in the shadow of a tragedy we can perhaps get it by asking ourselves what kind of treatment we would like were we in the same situation.

THE REAL cZAR

l have been assured that the Emperor was a very stupid, ignorant an even half-wltted man, who reads nothing, knows nothing and spends his life in terror. l have been told that he was a nervous wreck, that his hair had turned gray and that his face was hag- gard with wrinkles ploughed by care. He has been represented as false, treaeherous, cunning and Heaven only knows what. So the old hag Rumor, spins her spider web of calumny round the person of the Emperor, until the Czar, to many of his subjects and the outside world, has completely disap- peared and been replaced by a kind of mythical monster who Is only saved from being a hobgoblin by the con- sciousness that he is impotent to harm. The people who say these things and the still greater number who believe them will be somewhat rudely surprised when the douma releases Nicholas II from his prison house and restores him to his proper place as the Car tribune of a royal and self governing people
 There Is not word of truth in the popular legend as to the physical weak ness or nervous prostration of the En- peror It was six years since I had seen him. And such six years! But when he greeted me at Peterhoff only few weeks since, he did not seem to have aged a day since bade him good by at Tsarskoe-Selo on the eve of The Hague conference in 1899 His step was as light, his carriage as erect, his ex- pression as alert His brow bore no lines of haggard care. I could not see a gray hair on his head. His spirits were as high his courage as calm, and his outlook as cheerful as ever. The last time had seen him was on the eve of the greatest victory of his reign. was now meeting him on the morrow of his worst reverse. But the man was exact ly the same. He might simply have returned instantly from the door that had been closed six years before to re. peat his adieu.-W T. Stead, in The World To-day.
