oregon's refusal TO abolish the whip
ping post for wife heaters and the
nation is surprised, as well as those
Oregonians who firmly believe that
the continuance Of such a relic of
barbarism so humiliates and degrades
the eulprit that the end is absolutely
defeated for which the whipping post
is maintained. The husband who will
kick and beat his wife has not the
sense to recognize what his sympa-
thizers term humiliation" The Bull
Ietin would not have the whipping
post In Connecticut, even for wife
heaters, but there is one good excuse
for its maintenance, and it is the very
same pretext upon which we support
a big navy; 1t is a condition of pre-
paredness to deal with the offenders

WHO is TO BLAME?

Those prompt to answer the inquiry:
Who is to blame for filthy streets p
are likely to reply that the public
works committee is. but 1t isn't it Is
their duty when the streets are filthy
to order them cleaned up.
The one who throws paper wrap
pings, banana and orange peels, cigar
butts. nutshells and all kinds Of refuse
upon the walk and into the gutter is a
contributor to the conditions Of SLOW
enliness which give an otherwise at
tractive city a bad name.
In a city campaign for cleanliness
the citizen is taught not TO throw
refuse Of all kinds around as well as
the importance of picking up every
thing that Is unsightly and unsani-
tary. There is no denying that the
average citizen comes too near becom-
ing n natural slob and the health Law
which makes splitting upon the walk
a penal offense does not forbid the
throwing about Of fermentitious and
disease breeding matter OF every sort.

HOW GERMANY FIGHTS MosQUI-
TOES.

Germany does not tight mosquitoes
with kerosene oil. or any other mall
cdorous huid spread upon the face Of
the waters. The experimenting sci
Dutists Of Berlin after fifteen years
have found seml-tropica ! plant
erzoia-whlch grows so thickly on the
surface Of stagnant pools that the
mosquito larvae are smothered and
the mature insects cannot lay their
eggs in the water after the plant is
wen installed.
II is announced that as wilhelms-
haven possesses a malaria station, and
&c especially in Its vicinity hundreds
Of cases Of malaria occurred. the ex-
periments were made in that territory,
which Is full OF stagnant waters and
swamps, infested with mosquitoes.
While the proximity Of the sea and
the abnormaliy cool temperature Of
the summer Of 1907 had an unfavor-
able influence upon the growth Of the
plant. it, however. covered the expert
mental waters in a short time with
layer Of about 1882 inches, which suf-
located all the mosquito larvae below
and prevented the living insects from
depositing their eggs in the water.
This gives a pleasanter and more
practical way Of destroying the mos
Guitoes than is being employed in
this country and will be likely to find
favor everywhere.

Many Of the dirtiest and hlthiest lots
now marring the beauty Of the city are
owned by some Of the wealthiest cfti-
zens, who fail absolutely to pay any
attention to appeals to have them
cleaned. They allow them to remain
in the same condition year in and year
out. Il is almost discouraging. They
should take more interest in the city.
Many Of these same men who pretend
to take leading part in the affairs %

disgrace. You may me assured they
are not located near their homes. We
have notified them repeatedly about
cleaning up their places, but they do
