No Substitute for Honesty.

Orison Swett Warden, in Success Mag
 azine.
 No substitute has ever yet been discov- cred for honesty. Multitudes of people have gone to the wall trying to find one Our prisons are full of people who have attempted to substitute something else for it.
 No man can really believe in himself when he is occupying a false position and wearing a mask, when the little monitor within him is constantly saying, You know you are a fraud; you are not the man you pretend to be-" The conscious ness of not being genuine, not being what others thing him to be, robs a man of power, honeycombs the character and de- stroys self-respect and self-confidence.
 When Lincoln was asked to take the wrong side of case he said "I could not do it. All the time while talknig to that jury I should be thinking, Lin coin, you're a liar and I believe I should forget myself and say it out loud"
 Character as capital is very much un- derestimated by a great number of young men. They seem to put more emphasis upon smartness, shrewdness. long-head- edness, cunning, influence, a pull, than upon downright honesty and integrity of character

CHILDREN INHERIT
 FATHERS TRAITS Twenty Years Research Is Fi-
 nalIy Announced BY 5000 PHYSICIANS Sons Are More Likely to Take on Characteristics From the Male
 Than the FemaIe-ln-
 dividual Traits.

The Hague, June 6.-Drs. Heymans and Wiersma have concluded their investiga- tons on the possible heredity of character traits and mental abilities, and announce as the result that the fathers traits pre- dominate in children, particularly in male children.
 The Investigations covered 20 years, and 3N00 physicians, in all parts of the Nether- lands dominions, colonies included, work cd hand in hand with Heymans and Wiersma, gathering material and giving them the benefit of their personal investi- cations. Here follow some extracts from the report, which is soon to be given to the scientific world.
 'Logic-The ability to think logically and to formulate thoughts and express them in a convincing manner Is almost exclusively an inheritance from the father
 Among 100 sons of scientific men, or men who achieved fame as mathemati- o:as, 24 inherited ability for scientific work. Concerning the daughters of such men, the percentage was only IA. All the rest of the girls were either without ability for scientific pursuits or too indo- lent to make use of their talents.
 "As to mothers: Mothers scientifically 1T rclined almost invariably transfer their love for mental pursuits upon their sons who are unusually bright, having pe- culiar aptitude for study. The girls io not profit by their mothers wisdom or love of wisdom.
 "A good-natured father man with fine sentiments, will have sons equally distinguished The same characteristics ir a mother are not inherited
 "If the father is inclined to crime or to weaknesses of any sort, both his sons and daughters are liable to inherit these unhappy traits. Of 400 male parents suf- fering from melaneholia, epilepsy and mental unbalance, 90 transferred these stigmata to their offspring
 "A mother inclined to sport. particular ly the chase, will have sons and daugh- ters equally inclined. It is very important tat a mother be neat and clean in every way, as any deficiency l., that line on her part is inherited by the children.
 "The mother transfers upon children Of both sexes any artistic talent she may be possessed of; from the father the children inherit punctuality, the sense Of honor and talent for writing"
 Of the sum of cases investigated only per cent were thrown out because inheri- tance could not be traced.

TWO B|G PAYS MAKE BESSEMER LIVELY Streets Looked Like Old Times
 Yesterday GOLD AT J0NESBORO ? Men and Divining Rod Arouse consid- erable Interest By Going Out On Scout For God-PersonaI
 and General.

Bessemer, June (Special)-Smith Mines paid off this afternoon, as did the big pipe shops. The result was there was lots of business doing in Bessemer and it reminded one of old times. The stores were crowded during the latter portion of the afternoon and early in the evening The pay at Smiths this month was quite a large one and every one of the merchants was agreeably surprised at the amount of money turned loose.
 The pay at the pipe shops was also quite large and if business generally con tinues to pick up during the next few weeks as it has done in the last month it goes without saying that all of the merchants and all of the people in Bes- semer will begin to feel that the worst is over and the road to good times is becoming clearer.

Good Work Beinu Done.

It is more than probable that the Sal vation army in Bessemer is doing more real good work than any of the churches .n Bessemer. Captain Pullian, who is in charge of the army in this city, has been ably assisted by Lieutenant Campbell and in addition to that she has for the past two months had the assistance of the Misses Jasperson. Captain Pullian has been in Bessemer about a year and dur ing that time she has done good work and made many friends. The army Is growing more and more popular every day. They have taken care of people In Bessemer who would never have dreamed of going to one of the churches for aid. They have helped the blind and they have also helped people in and around the city in different ways. Meet ings are held at the hall on Nineteenth street every Tuesday, Thursday and Sun day evenings at o'clock The public s cordially invited.

Good Game.

The Atlanta, Birmingham and Atlantic team defeated the Bessemer Beavers this afternon at the Fourth Avenue park by a score of to 2.
 The game was well played throughout, although the locals were clearly out classed at every stage of the game. The feature of the game was the pitching of Bedding for the visitors. The Bessemcr boys could do nothing with him, and it was found after the strife was over that Bessemer had only gotten three little hits off him, while on the other hand the vis- itors hit the ball all over the lot.

The last legislature of Oregon
passed a law requiring the secre-
tary of state to send out printed
copies of the initiative measure
before the people 10 every voter
in the state. thus giving the
state printer work which Justly
belongs to the newspapers Of the
state.
Before the legislature passed
this unreasonable measure the
newspapers of the state printed
the initiative and referendum
measures and thus the measures
reached the voters in an attrac-
tive and readable form. The
cost to the state was insignif-
can't compared to the service
rendered by the newspapers.
With over 200 papers in the
state Of Oregon. every voter in
the state could be easily reached
through this medium, but that
the state printers enormous I'M
come might be further increased
the legislature decided that the
newspapers Of the state are no
good anyway, and so they were
deprived Of this little mite OF
state advertising.
The work of printing and dis
tributng 100, 600 copies Of theiu-
itiatiye measures before the
people this year will cost the JaN-
payers three times as much as
though the same work was per-
formed by the newspapers and
the publicity through the papers
would have been much greater
than under the present system.

SUPPORTS STATEMENT NO. 1.

Hood River News Letter (Rep).
1t is evident that a Statement
No. | man will be elected to the
United States senate for the fol-
lowing reasons:
First, every grange in the
state of Oregon has or will de-
clare in favor of this measure,
and the grange vote is a mighty
factor in Oregon politics.
Second, each and every anti
machine politician will support
the statement in the election of
state senators who are safe on
this question.
Third, the state press with less
than n half dozen exceptions is
most pronounced in favor of the
principles of the statement
Fourth, the recent attack on
the initiative and referendum
law by the Pacific States Tele-
phone and Telegraph and Sunset.
Telephone companies has won
thousands of converts to the
cause of popular government
Fifth, the brazen enrontery
and bulldog persistency of the
old ring politicians to dictate the
nominees for Office has turned all
who were halting between two
opinions" toward the principles
Of the measure.
Sixth, the nasty political record |
of the last generation of poIiti-
clans of the old-machine dynasty
which has besmirched the fair
state of Oregon with an odium of
graft and high-handed thievery
calls for remedial efforts by plac-
ing men in state and national
authority who feel a fair sense \
Of obligation to all the people Of
the state.
