sI.OOO.OOO for Famine Sufferers
WASHINGTON. Jan. il. - Senator
Perkins received a telegram today
signed by ". W. Clark OF Berkeley,
Cal. financial agent of the Chinese
Famine Relief Association OF Califor-
mia. asking him to introduce a bill in
the Senate making an appropriation Of
81 600. 600 for the benefit of the stricken
people in China. Clark says in his
telegram that he is supported in his
appeal by the San Francisco Chamber
OF Commerce and other similar organi-
cations Of that city.
Senator Perkins, while sympathizing
with the purpose Of Clark's request
did not feel like offering in the Senate
r measure such as was suggested with
out first consulting the proper officials
OF the Government He has therefore
laid the appeal before Secretary Root,
who will probably confer with the Chi
nese Minister and viii submit his views
IN the matter TO Senator Perkins later.
Roots action will determine the Sena-
tors future course in the matter.

TRY THE LAND FRAUD CASES.

The people Of Oregon do not care
particularly who is appointed United
States district attorney Of Oregon. II
a good man is selected, but they do
care about the matter of>trying the
land fraud cases.
A part Of the culprits have been
tried, few Of them have been SEN
fenced, but a still greater nurpber has
escaped, although equally guilty.
This is not fair to those who have
been tried and It is not fair to those
who are accused. Equal justice
should be meted out TO all alike
The government has charged these
men with crime and the odium Of
that charge Is hanging over them.
They should be given an early hear
ing that their status in society may
be determined. They should be pun
ished or vindlcated.
The quibbling over who will try
the cases is an insignificant matter.
Trying the cases is the whole ques-
ton. Getting them off the docket is
the gist Of the matter. Giving the
accused the benefit Of trial is what
the people demand. They are entitl-
ed to II.

He shifted his quid. the captain did.

And rolling gait had the little mate

oh, Captain Kid just stormed. he did
When things went wrong at sea:
And brandished in wrath his piece OF
lath,
The aforesaid snikersnee.
For the Bridget X was a leaky tub.
Whose course was painfully slow;
From Kitchen Door to Parlor Floor.
Was as far as she could go!
When the pirates fearsome cruise

must pass out Of existence with the
coming OF the railroad.
This means more than a mere in
cldent TO manv. II means the disap-
pearance Of enterprises the oblitera-
ton OF occupations, the destruction
OF lifelong incomes to many.
Staging, frelghtlng. feed stables and
other similar occupations are done
away with largely by the coming OF
the railroad. But there is compen-
sation in the establishment Of other
enterprises peculiar to railroad towns
and so there is no actual loss but in
stead a great gain.
We often ask what becomes OF the
people who are driven out Of these
pioneer industries?
Why, TO be sure they merge into
the tide OF progress. take up other
lines OF work, go along with as much
ease and prosperity as before, and
after the shock OF changing their
occupation Is past. are much better
of in every way.
People cling to old ways many
times simply because there is no
emergency to drive them out. They
drift with the tide and only get out
Of the tide when it sweeps them off
their feet out on to the dry ground
high and dry above their old notions,
where they must exercise their in
yenuity and skill in shaping a new
environment

THE RHYME OF LIFE.

kill,
Burn. little candle. lit for me.
With a pure flame that 1 may
rightly see
To word my song, and utterly
Gods plan fulfil.
II life be as flower that blooms
and dies,
Forbid the cunning frost that slays
With Judas kiss. and trusting love
betrays;
Forever may my song OF praise
Untainted rise.
II life be as a voyage. foul or fair
Oh, bid me not my banners furl
For adverse gale, or wave in angry
whirl,
Till l have found the gates Of pearl,
And anchored there.

CONSIDERATION.

Wouldst thou make happiness thy
life's fond aim?
Wouldst walk self-satisf1ed those
paths alone
Where fortunes perfume-freighted
gales are blown?
Or toll for men to adulate thy
name?
Wouldst madly seek the things by
pleasure strewn,
Unheeding all their emptiness and
shame?
Or dare the fabric of thy soul to
main,
Could lucre millions only be thine
own?
II yea, oh, let that angel one austere,
Called Conservation, lead thy wan
dering feet
Where blessedness may evermore
be thine:
Christ's gift she is-to man to Won
drous dear
In service by her spirit made COM
plete,
That Peace is hers eternally di-
vine.

Francisco, in December Sunset.

Catarrh and Dea(ncss

Mrs. +. d. Lawson, Navasota, Tex,
writes:
at is with great pleasure that write
to tell you that my little daughter is
entirely cured Of catarrh and deafness
and is in better health than she has been
for the past two years. Peruna is truly
a great medicine and cannot say too
much in praise OF it. 1t has done for n. V
little girl whatdoctors have failed to do.
She has taken not quite three bottles" !"
IF the practical women OF the world
l. who use family medicines, were
asked which is the most reliable family
medicine in use today, great majority
Of them would reply, without hesita-
ton, Peruna.
Peruna is especially praised by the
women because they have abundant op-
portunity to note its prompt effects in
relieving the various ills to which the
family is liable.
Coughs, colds, indigestion, collie, kid
ney and bladder trouble, nervous weak
ness, loss of appetite, irregular circula-
tion-all these and many other ailments
dependent upon the exigencies of eli
mate are promptly relieved by Peruna.
Peruna has been prescribed for the
family by DR.. Hartman for over forty
years. 1t has become a standard med
>lcine throughout the greater part OF
the civilized world.

CAMPAIGN WITHOUT FUNDS.

The suggestion Of William Jennings
Bryan that he would prefer to run for
the presidency without funds and
without a national committee is a
startling idea under the present status
OF political conditions in this country.
Heretofore It has been the custom to
raise millions for campaigns. Trusts
and corporations have been bled mer-
cilessly for funds and the payment OF
money for the delivery Of state dele
cations has been considered, If not
a legitimate. at least a necessary
transaction in presidential campaigns.
To go before the people. alone and
barehanded, without a sack or a steer
ing committee is a most extraordinary
offer, but Bryan was sincere when
he said It. He would leave the set
tlement Of national issues to the peo-
pie and not to the Doodle funds Of
the campaign committees.
When the people Of this govern
ment arise to that ideal. political cor
ruption, favoritism, boodling, bribery
and fraud in legislative matters will
have beeh largely wiped out Of exis-
tence.

THE GENTLENIANLY BUM.

Money is the only thing which
stands between many a dissipated
rich man and the gutter. A few
thousand dollars prevents society
from kicking out many a rogue who
aside from his money. is a worse
character than many a real bum in
the slums and gutter.
It is the misfortune of society,
under It's present arrangement and
in the light Of its present ideals, that
wealth counts for much in the eyes
Of certain classes. Having money a
man can do almost anything and will
escape the odium heaped upon a poor
man for the same breach of moral
or written law.
We meet a rich man or a rich
mans son staggering on the street
or see him sitting in a stupor unable
even to stagger. and we say, What
a PITY
We meet a poor fellow, or the son
Of a poor man in the same condition
and we say, THE dirty dog"
So money shields many a man and
turns the sharp words of censure into
soothing excuses and fawning toady-
ism.
