MILLIONAIRE IMMIGRANTS.

1t is not q little consolation to the patriot
ic Briton to observe the steady flow Of lmml-
grafton Of the wealthy classes OF other ma
lions into England and Scotland. 1t is fiat
terinc that those who can afford to live
exactly where they choose should be coming
TO us in such considerable numbers from the
United States and elsewhere, and,os is point
ed out in the article printed below, the
movement is one likely to increase greatly
twenty years ago the idea Of foreigners
hunting ut Melton, shooting IN Scotland,
hou~e-boating on the Thames, or INDUCING
in any other Of the many delightful sports
Great Britain hus to offer them was almost
unknown.
To-day the number Of foreign mlllionalres
who have made Britaiu their home is much
more considerable than might generally be
supposed The movement IS a good one IN
every way from the British point Of view.
Of these immigrants bring with them
handsome sons and daughters who settle
down among us and add that mixture Of new
blood which is essential to the vitality Of all
nations. Many Of them restore ancient
homes that might otherwise fall into com
pIete decay, maintoin large and costly estab-
ii7hments, and spend then fortunes freely IN
the Old Country.

WHY [ PREFER Britain
BY an American Millionaire

II Oh A4AANA 'C~A@
There is a good deal Of agitation among
nv cnuntrymen because u great many Amer
jcaus who can afford to live outside the
limited States are purchasing houses in
Britain or o~ccalpving one Of the many Of
vour deIiohtful and most comfortable hotels.
nm Of opinion that this movement is only
in it's infancy. Britain, with it's delightful
town md country houses. Is likely to become
fine endouarte.s of the more wealthy Of the
E,oIish-sneakjno peoples, and there is a sort
of rough Justice in the movement, inaemuch
oa the United States and Canada have been
almost entirely p0pulQted, so far as their

Every family here ought to keep
some Diapepsin in the house, as any
one Of you may have an attack OF
Indigestion or Stomach trouble at
any time, day or night.
This harmless preparation will di-
gest anything you eat and overcome
sour stomach FIVE minutes after
wards.
If your meals don't tempt you or
what little you do eat seems to fill
you, or lays like lump of lead in
your stomach, or if you have heart
burn, that is a sign Of Indigestion.
Ask your Pharmacist for 50-cent
case Of Pape's Diapepsin and take
one triangule after supper tonight.
There will be no sour risings, no
belching Of undigested food mixed
with acid, no stomach gas or heart
burn, fullness or heavy feeling in the
stomach, Nausea, Debilitating Head
aches, Dizziness or Intestinal grip
ing. This will all go, and, besides,
there will be no sour food left over
in the stomach to poison your breath
with nauseous odors.
Pape's Diapcpsin is certain cure
for all stomach misery, because 1t
will take hold Of your food and d.
gest it just the same as if your
stomach wasn't there.
Actual, prompt relief for all your
stomach misery is at your Pharma-
cist, waiting for you
These large 50-cent cases contain
more than sufficient to cure a case
Of Dyspepsia or Indigestion.

1t is dawning upon this electorate
that there are those on its roster OF
officials amenable to the rule Of ous'
ter, and there is more talk of It than
has ever been heard here since the
law was passed, II is no fault Of the
people that the subject is coming to
the front; the fault lies with those
officers who have disappointed and
deceived the public which honored
them; they are conscious Of the situa'
ton as it applies to them; there are
no 'ifs and ands" about the matter
with those who have preserved their
own integrity and done their duty by
the people to the best OF their ability,
as they swore they would.
Just for the sake Of makingthe mat
ter easy Of analysis for those who are
in doubt, we suggest that some Of the
officials, hereabout whose official
oath was supposed to have been
worth the paper il was printed on
and subscribed, ask themselves the
grave question Of their faith to that
oath, and make answer, before the
people answer it for them! NO man
may serve two masters"

THE RIGHT OF RECALL.

IT may be well for the average AS
torian to give some earnest
thought to the right Of recall as
prescribed by the statutes Of Oregon
and put there BY the people them
selves. II is evident that sooner, er
later. this elemental prerogative must
be invoked, to save the good name
Of such communities as have made
the vital mistake Of eiecting the
wrong man; or rather the man VINO
having been elected proves to be the
wrong man 1t is the one whole
some method reserved to the people;
they do not have to consult even the
man under discipline, nor his friends,
to start the movement.
When man takes a public honor
at the polls he is presumed to be an
admirable servant; every favorable
quality is conceded him; he is free to
make good, or bad, as he shall delib-
erately choose; but the people are as
free as he is, in the premise. They
do not have to suffer his failure un-
less they went to, as they were com
pelied to do some years ago. They
have their remedy and may apply it
wheneved his Iapses shall warrant
organic action looking to his retire
ment.
1t is not pleasant duty at any
time. There is something shocking in
the program that Gusts man from
position and confidence before the
public that blundered in setting him
up; no man will willingly pursue a
recalcitrant upon any but the surest
and safest ground Of proven incapa-
city or manifest lurpitude; and the
issue Of such plan may be trusted
to stand as the last and best express
sion Of the public temper and public
estimate.

ABSORBING THE ALIENS.


A report dealing with the changes Of
the bodily form Of descendants OF i'm
migrants, submitted to the senate by
the immigration commission, contains
facts and observations that are as
tonishing and considered of great In
terest and Importance in anthropoIog-
ical science.
1t has been found that the de-
scendants of the European immigrant
changes his type, over in the first
generation, almost entirely.
While the Investigations have not
gone far enough to warrant the GER
tain deduction that the rapid assimila-
tion of widely varying types will lead
to an American type, the experts be-
lleve that life in this country is boil
ing down the race characteristics of
aliens. Measurements of the bodies of
European immigrants and of their de-
scendants at different ages and under
differing circumstances were made, but
the results as far are based entirely
on the measurements of Sci1ians and
East European Hebrews.
There is much material on hand, but
not yet worked out, regarding Bohem-
ianms, Hungarians and Scotch
Children born even a few years after
the arrival of the immigrant parents
in America develop IN such a way that
they differ essentially in type from
their foreign born parents. These
differences seem to develop in earliest
childhood and persist throughout life

Trains Going West.
IN NORTH DAKOTA.

Dispatches from the North Atlantic
states this week tell of terrific storm
and tidal wave that swept the coast
from Maine to New York, so one may
be glad that North Dakota is not
on the ocean. Reports from nearer
home are of disasters from Superior to
Ontario. Let Dakotans rejoice they
are not on the great lakes. Stories
from the south are of death dealing
blizzards in Texas, therefore all may
find joy in the fact that this state is
not on the gulf. All around and about,
east and west and north and south,
there has been a Christmas season
fast and furious, but here in the old
Flickertail commonwealth 1t has been
a white yuletide season, just bracing
enough to be merry.

THE OLD HON e.

An echo Of the "good old times" was
heard in Illinois recently when Alex
ander and Talitha Wilday celebrated
the Goth anniversary of their wedding
in the house where they went to live
Immediately after that ceremony.
To such people home is something
more than word. 1t is an idea sweet
ened by the sentiments which have
grown up about it during long and
successful life.
The Wildays went home That was
Dec. 20, 1S49. In this year of grace
1909, the newly welded pair go to a
fiat or an apartment leased for a
year perhaps, or from month to month.
1t can never become a home.
In Chicago the first week in May is
known as moving day and for those
days the public schools are closed.
1t is the exception-not the rule for
for any family to live more than a
year in one house or apartment.
A migratory life of that description
can never become a home life
The bracing, ennobling, character
forming sentiments which grow strong
in the home have no chance in the
fiat. The children born and now living
in these strange stopping places will
not have the sweetest of all pleasures
