Better Feeling Towards Railroads.
Concord Tribune.

NoH'oiu
The Baltimore Sun uuder the
above caption writes to the point.
taking as a basis for it's remarks an
article contributed to the North
american Review by Mr.. Logan Nc
Pherson on the Farmer, the Manu-
facturer and Railroad" Mr.. McPher-
son declares "that for each 1000
invested i'll manufacturing the gross
earnings, or returns" are 81, PIG.
For each 81 900 invested in farming
the gross returns are $191, and for
each 81 900 invested in railroads the
returns are $3.50.
After discussing the matter Of rate,
and laws relative to the railroads,
the Sun concludes by saying:
There dre signs now OF a better un-
derstanding between the people and
the railroads. 1t seems that the feel
ing of hostility is disappearing and
the craze for legislating against them
is abating. 1t is more likely that
those laws which have been found to
be unjust will be repealed In the
meantime the earnings OF many oI
the railroads are increasing, the
steel mills are receiving orders for
rails which. had been delayed aud
more orders are expected. Conf
dence is taking the place Of suspicion
and Il proper realization of the mu
tual dependence of railroads and peo
pie upon each other is asserting it.
SELF
There has never been any doub1
but that the turning of the tide
would come, when the tendency tC
prosecute, persecute and antagOnizf
the railroads would give way to &
fair and just treatment by the pow
ers and by the general public. Where
there are abuses these should be cor
rected, but the time is coming whel
the public will not stand for a politi
cal footballing of roads. A bette
understanding and a better feeling
are ahead of us.

women who Wear Well.

T. +. astonishing how great change
t.p yaars Of married life often make in
tho appcarance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
trrjiance vanish like the bloom from a
naarb which is rudely handled. The
Iratran is only dim shadow, faint echo
of III, charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
no.scs which too often come with mar
rfare and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
Of is freshness and the form of it's
fairness.

Rights of Business Men.
New Bern Sun.

New Bern sun.
1t is queer, the way so-caiied lead
ers of politics, and other things, turn
I'D their noses when anything OF a
public nature is referred to as being
in the interest of the business men,
or when the business men have an
idea of doing anything that will re-
dound to their own good. Because
some of this presu1nptious class OF
citizens in Wilmington were bold
enough to express an opinion, the
Governor of the State made an lndl-
rect fling at them, which was equlva-
lent to telling them they should think
his way or not think at all. The
Messenger thereupon asks the ques.
ton: "Have not the business men OF
this city a right to entertain and ex-
press opinions on the railroad ques
tion?"
Noting that question, the Char
| lotte Observer answers: mo. Busl
ness men have no right to express
opinions about any public question
They have no business to do any
thing except put up the campalgl
fund and vote the ticket.

The New York Tribune believes
that while an elastic currency would
help bankers to guide the country
through this difficult period it would
be no cure for existing ills. "At bot
TOM" declares the Tribune, 1.-The
trouble is the worldwide scarcity OF
capital, and until new capital has
been accumulated, or until TALL IN
the cost of labor and raw materia
makes the present supply OF capital
90 further than it has gone for the
last few years of boom prices, the
country will continue to experience
some degree of financial disturbance.
In which there is a very great deal OF
truth. At the same time we see nc
reason why all the early relief posi-
BILE should rot be sought and ob
tained.

PLANNED SUICIDE
BBCKHUsEN HAD
BROoDED OVER TROUBLES
Stated In Conversation That Bullet
Was Best Remedy for Troubles
Worried Over Killing Brother
Has Sister Living Somewhere In
Chicago - Administrator TO Be APP
pointed to Look After Estate
Arrangements for Funeral.

From circumstances that have
come to light 1t is now believed that
j. l.. Beckhusen, who hung himself in
the grand stand of the baseball park
night before last, had contemplated
suicide for several weeks.
For some time previous to this
death Beckhusen had been living at
the home OF John Whalley in this
city. In a conversation with Mrs.
Whalley about two weeks ago, he de-
clared that when a man was in trou-
BILE a bullet was often the best rem
edy. When Mrs. Whalley said in re-
ply that no one but fool would take
such recourse, he insisted that bright
men often committed suicide, and
this idea he seemingly held until the
end.
However, 1t was not business trou-
BILE alone that caused the dead man
to grow respondent. While he was
undoubtedly blue oyer his inability
to meet his obligations to his brother
in Germany, his friends say he also
brooded much over the death of his
brother, whom he accidentally killed
in Grant county several years ago.
Aside from his relatives in Germany
Beckhusen had a sister living in Chi
cago. However, thus far her address
has not been learned. II her where
abouts can be learned she will be
consulted as to the funeral arrange
ments. Otherwise, the interment will
be made here without awaiting for
advice from the relatives.
John Whalley, with whom Beck
husen lived, and Will Lane, are both
long standing friends of the head
man. They have known him for the
past Is years or more and 1t is prob
able that one of those gentlemen will
be named as administrator for the es-
tate.
Aside from his 160-acre ranch in
Grant county the deceased has some
personal property, among the latter
being three fine horses which he had
not sold. However, he also had some
Indebtedness, Mr.. Whaley being the
principal creditor.
Judge S. A. Lowell who was the
dead mans attorney during his life
time, is being consulted regarding the
disposition of affairs and his law
partner, j. p. Winter, has written the
brother in Germany regarding his rel
ative's sad end.

Well Known Pendleton Family
Writes OF Experience in Crossing

The East Oregonlan has just re-
ceived an entertaining letter from
DR.. C. ]. Smith Of this city, who with
his family is now in Edinburg'
Scotland enjoying the delightful
scenes in that land Of romance
The letter was written on board
the steamer Lucania, 500 miles at
sea from Queenstown and inclosed a
COPY of the daily Cunard wireless
telegraph bulletin issued on board
the ship. The bulletin contains
full list of the saloon passengers, tells
of the closing of the Merchants Ma
tional bank of Portland and gives
other current telegraphic news OF
that day. The news was received
by Marconi wireless telegraph.
On the evening of the day on
which the letter was written, No
vember IA, a benefit entertainment
was given on board for the Seamen's
Widow and Orphun fund of Liver
pool and $65 was realized.
A storm was in progress at the
time the letter was written and the
sea was rolling heavily. DR.. Smith
said there had been some seasickness
in his family while crossing the At
lantic, but that Mrs. Smith had re-
quested him not to mention It..
They will remain in Scotland for
some time after which they will go
to the holy land for the month Of
December.

HID THE OTHER MANS GOOSE
Nose Baldwin Forced to Languish I'm
County Jail Over Night for Fun.

Because he INDUCED in the time
honored joke of hiding another mans
goose Moose Baldwin was forced to
spend last night in the city Jail. The
particular fowl that caused such
trouble for Baldwin was the prop
erty of Bartender Dwyer of the
Crescent saloon. According to the
story told City Attorney McCourt by
Baldwin today he had been asked by
another man in the saloon to hide
the goose while Dwyer was away. He
did so, out of fun only, but later when
he went to get the goose to return
1t someone else had beated him to It..
Being unable to locate the goose
Baldwin then left the place and fall
ed to make any explanation to the
rightful owner of the fowl. This led
to his arrest, but when Baldwin told
his story today he was ordered re-
leased.

But as the sheriffs office was not
informed of the affair until several
weeks after Skidmores departure,
they are handicapped in the earch.
