Jesse James, Jr.

An exchange pays the follow
ing tribute to Jesse james, Jr,:
He was a boy with handicap.
Jesse James, Jr., of Kansas City,
is a full-fedged lawyer. In
case of 81 applicant for license
to practice law, he stood at Che
head, and the Board of Exami-
ners say he has the brightest
legal mind of any young man
who has recently appeared be-
fore them.
Jesse James, Jr., is self-made
in the highest sense.
His father was killed when he
was six years old. The brand
of the outlaws son was upon
him.
He made that shame a step
ping stone. When he was twelve
years of age he quit school of
his own notion. He said he was
old enough to work.
The boy entered a lawyers
office, afterwards clerked in a
packing plant, and having saved
some money opened a cigar store.
He wrote book in defense of
his father which had large
sale.
When he was twenty one he
had 800 and owned the cottage
in which his mother lived.
Meantime he kept up his stud
les, his mother being his teach
er. He entered the night law
school, where he graduated with
honors.
Today this son Of a bandit is

His Valuable Invention.

A poor man went about in Ne
braska looking for work. He
obtained job in a village saw
ing wood. The sawyer interest
ed employer, and finally coofess-
ed the reason of his poverty. He
was an inventor and had spent
his substance on device to keep
horses off barbed wire fences.
The idea seemed promising to
the Nebraskan, and he finally
paid $4,000 for the right to sell
the device in his state. The
sample was sent later. 1t was a
signboard to be hung on the
fence, and read as follows:
NOTICE TO HORSES.
Dangerous-Keep Away!
With the signboard came a
pair of spectacles for the use of
near-sighted horses.

Too Much for Him.

The proprietor of a lanyard
built a stand on one of the main
streets of a Virginia town for
the purpose of selling leather
and buying new hides.
When he had completed the
building he considered for long
time what sort of q sign to put
up to attract attention to the
new establishment. Finally a
thought struck. He bored an
augur hole through the door post
and stuck calf's tail into it
with the tufted end outside.
After while he saw a solemn
faced man standing near the
door looking at the sign, his eyes
in a round, meditative stare be-
hind his spcctacles. The tanner
watched him a minute, then
stepped out and addressed him.
'&ood morning, SIR" he said.
Morning" said the other,
without taking his eyes off the
sign.
"Want to buy leather?" asked
the tanner.
"No.n
"Got any hides to sell?n
"No."
care you a farmer?"
"No,"
"Lawyer?n
"No."
sDoctor

"l'm philosopher. Pve been

to figure how that calf got
through that hole. !"

worth $4,000 and is fairly
launched in the practice of law.
He is married to a fine girl. He
has never in his life tasted whis-
ky, beer or tobacco.
He is known by everybody in
his town as scrupulously hon
est young man.
Which proves again that moth
ing outside of a man can over
come the spirit that is within
him.
Gall it New Thought or what
not, this is true. The boy who
determines to make Il man of
himself and tries, who holds that
determination and keeps on try
ing, must be the power that is
within him becomes what he
wants to be.
Young Jesse has evidently de-
termined to cover the stain on
the family name by making that
name luminous with homer.
If he lives-mark the predic-
tion--he will one day be Govern
or of Missouri. His ambition lies
that way, and the people of Mis-
souri, have not quite forgotten
the good side of the famous out
law, his father.

EPIC OF "rHE SIMPLE LIFE"
Newark News.


A $4,000 automobile rolled through
the $50, 200 bronze gates and up the
$4,000 winding avenue to the $40, 900
marble steps.
Descending from the machine, the
Millionaire paused moment to view
the smiling 100000 landscape.
Across the 800, 900 lawn $125, 600
silver lake lay sleeping in the shades
of early evening, and beyond it rose a
lordly $4,000 hill, whose crest,
cloaked with forests at an expense of
$200,000 glowed on the golden rays
of the setting sun.
The millionaire sank luxurionsly into
a 80, 600 ivory porch chair and rested
bis feet on the rose railing of the
$4,000 veranda.
"It is pleasant, he observed, to
get back to nature once in awhile.
After the cares and worries of the
business day, certainly love to run
out to this quiet little $50, 900, 900

The mercantile and manufacturing
classes in America have nntjl recently
taken but little, If any, interest in the
question of land distribution. What
did it matter to them whether the
country was being divided up into
large or small holdings?-that was a
question which concerned only those
who wanted to cultivate the soil, raise
stock or live in the grandeur supposed
to inhere in the possession of many
acres. But the Irrigation propaganda,
and its oorollary. the advocacy of the
small farm, have awakened those
classes to the fact that big estates
dwarf while small farms expand their
opportunities. In short time the al
ways powerful influence OF our great
cities will be solidly massed against
the continuation of conditions which
make possible the further multiplica-
tion of big land estates, and in favor
OF laws tending to break up those
which already exist.

STATUS or THE EAGLE.


Nobody pays any serious attention
to the Milton Eagle, and the Leader
is disposed to regard with tolerance
its renewed attacks upon the normal
schools. The handspring of its action
has become too apparent In every
eIection-when nobody knows whether
it will be republican or democratic
until its editor makes his biennial
trip to Pendleton. Deriving no Pc
cuniary benefits from the normal
schools, the Eagle condemns them as
grating system" It regards the the
Weston Normal as particularly OBJ
noxious because with its operation
fewer teachers are required in Weston
public schools. This is an awful ac-
cusation, but true, because to fulfill
its proper function the Normal has
need of some of the Weston children in
its training school. What would
the Eagle have us do? Move the
Normal to Cayuse station or to the
summit of the Blues, where there is
no chance for community benefits?

DIED SUDDENLY
OF HEART DISEASE.

How frequently does q head line SINH
lar 10 the above greet Us In the news
papefs. The rush. push and strenuous
ness OF the American people has strong
tendency TO lead up to valyular and other
affections OF the heart, attended by ir-
regular action, palpitation. dizziness,
smothered sensations and other distress
ing symptoms.
Three of the prominent ingredients OF
which DIR. PIerce's Golden Medical Dis
covery Is made are recommended by some
OF the leading writer's on Mdteria Medtcd
for the cure Of Just such cases. Golden
Seal root, for instance, is said by the

Numerous other leading authorities rep-
resent Golden Seal as an unsurpassed
tonic for the muscular system In general,
and as the heart Is almost wholly COM
posed OF muscular tissue, 1t naturally
follows that II must be greatly strength
ened by this superb, general tonic. But
probably the most important ingredient
OF "Golden Medical Discovery 80 far
as its marvellous cures Of valvular and
other affections OF the heart are con-
cerned, Is Stone root, or COlltns0ntd Cam,

Let nobody claim that the govern

estates wherever they exist. The

tent by either; in the states most feas-
IDLY, by their own Legislatures. The
concentration of all taxes upon land

tiles, as urged by Henry George.

a graduated scale, like that adopted by
Minnesota in her new tax on in

MORAL STANDARDS.
Portland Oregonian.

Portland Oregonian.
They have some strange moral
standards up ut Eugene, says the
Eugene Guard: $50 Judge Tanner
has been rewarded by full pardon
for betraying his lifelong friend and
business associate, the late Senator
Mitchell. A man made of the right
stuff would have gone to prison him
self rather than secure immunity by
sending bis oldest friend there"
Though the Guard makes o false
statement, it shows its idea Of what is
right. In the first place, it is not
true that Tanner betrayed Mitchell.
On the contrary, he stood by him as
long as possible, even to the extreme
of committing perjury to save his
friend. Tanner confessed only after
the perjury had been discovered, and
when it would be folly to persist in
false swearing. The Guard also says
what is untrue when it implies that
Tanner confessed to save himself.
The fact is that he confessed to save
his son, who had as much claim upon
the consideration, it would seem, as
Senator Mitchell had. Another false
hood is contained in the asser tion
that Tanner was sending his old friend
to prison. II any man goes to prison
he sends himself there. by his own
deliberate acts, and no man who COM
mits a crime has any right to expect
his friends to commit perjury to save
him.
But the falsity of the assertions
made by the Guard are of minor i'm
portance. The more noteworthy feat
ure of the Guards comment is the
standard morals held up before the
young people of Eugene and Lane
county who read that paper. Virtu-
ally the Guard says to the young men
and women whom it addresses: IF
friend of yours commits crime and
thus renders himself liable to impris-
onment, it is your duty to swear false
ly to save him and persist in the per-
jury until you go to prison yourself.
This must be your code of honor. It
is disgrace to uphold the law and to
aid the courts in the execution of
justice. Your first duty is to your
friend who has committed crime,
and in order to save him you must
overthrow the laws of your country.
To do otherwise is dishonor. You
must be liar to save your freud,
aud in turn your friends must perjure
themselves to save you, aud your
friends friends in turn commit per-
jury to save them.
Tanner merited all the disgrace and
trouble that fell upon him, but it was
due him for swearing falsely in the
first instance, and not finally for tell
ing the truth. If the Guard voices
the Lane county idea of honor, which
is not believeable, it is to be hoped
that some sort of moral quarantine
can be established, SO that the NAL
ady will not spread to the rest of the
st ate.

A Difference of Opinion.

Look out for some heavy editorials
shortly. We have pasted a picture of
the editor of the Emporia Gazette be-
fore our desk for inspiration.-Leav-
enworth Times. ..... 49, ...
Whatever may be said of the face of
the editor of this paper-which, to use
a typographical expression, is 96
point extended-it has never been
used for inspiration. It has been sue
cessfully used in cases of sluggish
liver: a number of gentlemen in
Emporia whose circulation is impaired
used it successfully to start heart
action; it Pushes the face, quickens
the breath, loosens the vocabulary,
increases the temperature. It is a
familiar object at the note counter of
the bank every ninety days, and is
good at the various grocery stores
around town for thirty days. credit.
AS a face it is not a startling success.
It lacks expression. It looks like a
rear of Cupid taken from another ex-
posture. Other faces have more in
them; his face has nothing but fea-
lures in it, and they are a job lot
representing Grecian, Gothic and
