Oriental Health Counsel.

Those forehanded folk, the Japan
ese, have a government which looks
after them keenly, and here are it's
official health rules:
!. Spend as much time out of
doors as possible. Bask much in the
sun and take plenty of exercise. Take
care that your respiration is always
deep and regular.
2. AS regards meals, eat meat
only once a day, and let the diet be
eggs, cereals and vegetables, fruits
and fresh cows milk. Take the last
named as much as possible. Masti-
cate your food carefully.
8. Take a hot bath every day,
and steam bath once or twice a
week if the heart is strong enough to
bear it.
4. Early to bed and early to rise.
5. Sleep in very dark and quiet
room, with windows open. Let the
minimum of sleeping hours be six OF
six and one-half hours. In case OF
women eight and one-half hours is
advisable.
6. Take one day of absolute rest
each week in which you must refrain
from even reading or writing.
Z. Try to avoid any outbursts Of
passion and strong mental stimula
tions. Do not tax your brain at the
occurrence or inevitable incidents Of
coming events. Do not say unpleas
ant things nor listen, if possible t.
avoid it, to disagreeable things.
8. Be married. Widows and wild
overs should be married with tn,
least possible delay.
8. Be moderate in the consump
tion of even tea and coffee, not t,
say tobacco and alcoholic beverages
10. Avoid places that are to,
warm, especially steam-heated an,
badly ventilated rooms.

WHAT is FREE SPEECH?

cleveland CD Press, June 1O.)
Recently the president and con-
gress were petitioned by worthy citi-
zens to investigate the alleged sup
preston of the rights of free speech,
free press and free assemblage in
Paterson, N. j. There is needed,
now more than ever before, in view
of the prevalence of social unrest,
clear and compelling statement of
just what this guarantee covers.
Since the subject in controversy goes
to the very base of free government,
the intelligence brought to its con-
sideration should be the best that
the nation can summon. On the Pa
cific coast, on the Atlantic coast, and
more and more in the intervening
territory free speech wars" are COM
ing to pass. Made possible usually
by the stupidity of vain officials, they
are promptly seized upon by indus
trial revolutionists as opportunities
for effective propaganda, and we
have today a large and earnest mi
nority believing and proclaiming that
our government is a class govern
ment, and boldly challenging it's fu-
ture. To ignore a tendency so omi-
nous would be foolish. To consider
it from a partisan or class point of
view would be unwise and ineffect-
ual. Where right is involved, the
question of who is affected is second
ary to what the right is. Let the
president, therefore, when he deems
the time fitting, take action on the
free speech petition, not with a view
to conditions in Paterson merely, or
any other area of passing contro-
versy, but broadly, fundamentally.
Let us have standard definition of
what free speech is. Let us know
where we stand.

Men should be conscientious in
what they do, but they should guard
against being so "egotistically" con-
scientious that they come to view
opposition to their opinions as re-
bellion against God. He who reads
history attentively will find many
instances where those devoutly con-
scientious have been led into the
most violent inhumanities in their
zeal to enforce on others opinions
held by themselves, which time has
proven to be altogether erroneous.
Witness the burning of dissenters in
Europe and in the early history of
Massachusetts when three pious
Quaker women were denounced as
witches and suffered death as mar
tyrs at the hands of conscientious
but mistaken society. Now we know
that every protestant church is the
offspring of the dissenters and that
Quakers form a large and virtuous
part of our American society.
Intolerance on the part of reform
votaries is often responsible for slow
movement in the reform. The aver
age man is reasonable in his opinions
and many advocate wrong notions
because of lack of knowledge of the
right. They can be recovered by ed
ucation, but invective will never win
them. In their infancy most reform
movements are weak, just as the pro-
hibition movement was weak in the
beginning. Force has been added to
it just as the people have been
brought to see the worth of the new
cause, and the evils which liquor
traffic entails. Still many people be-
lieve that unless you permit persons
to kill themselves if they want to
you are encroaching on personal lib
erty. Thoughtful persons do not now
take that view of the doctrine of per-
sonal liberty, because they realize
that every individual has a certain
relation to society in which he owes
social consideration and society owes
him the same. They look not so
much to the effect on the individual
as to that of society. There are GER
tain things that are socially bad,
that drag society down and in which
no good is to be found. The liquor
traffic is one of them, and those who
recognize it as such are engaged in a
just crusade against it.

Here is synopsis of the Interstate
Commerce Commissions findings in
regard to President Mellen's high
finance with the New Haven merg-
er:
THAT the absorption of the Boston
& Maine by the New Haven railroad
was not justified and has proven of
no value;
"That a special account was
opened with Mellen, from which he
drew 100000, accruing from the
sale of treasury stock;
THAT there is nothing to show
whether he appropriated this money
or used it for the benefit of the COM
.pany;
THAT in acquiring trolley lines the
New Haven railroad gave $13,500,-
600 for nothing;
THAT in financing the New York
Boston & Westchester railroad a GER.
tain 100000 seems to have dis
appeared, or vanished in thin air,
and
THAT the New Haven compan.
converted water into wine by whole
sale"
When almost all other railroad
have become good" the new Havel
stands out as the incorrigibly bac
boy of the class.

AN UNNAMED TOPIC.

We are reminded by an editorial |
in one of the valley papers, under
date of the 18th inst, of a subject |
which we purposely avoided under
the topic, What's the Matter With
the Rogue River Valley?" in our
editorial series just completed. We
wrote broadly of the whole valley,
not of particular and infinitesimal
spot. In the discussion we handled
only subjects of a somewhat extend
ed influence and scope, and tried to
avoid small and narrow topics. Had
we written on Whats the Matter
With Fir Street, or fractional lot
between the alley and the hotel on
Fir street?" we could have justly
stated, "The Tribune, that's what's
the matter with Fir street." but in
discussing broad topics, to inject
pinched and narrow things, not un-
derstood beyond the scope of it's i'm
mediate presence, could have but the
effect of confusing.
Had we written on the topic,
whats the Matter With the Tri-
bune?" we could have rightly said,
Putnam, that's what's the matter
with the Tribune" but in writing on
a subject as broad as the Rogue
River Valley, or as the city of Med
ford, or as the newspapers of the
valley, or on any topic broad enough
to extend beyond the four walls of
the Tribune building, to mention
either Putnam or the Tribune would
have been but to deal with matters
foreign to intelligent readers, except
it be to those who go always armed
with microscope, for it's influence
is possible of revelation only within
the field of such a glass. However,
had we intended to deal with a topic
as wide and high as its egotism, we
should have been forced to advert to
empires, spheres, planets, worlds
yea, even of the universe, and that
topic was too big for the occasion.
Could some things be bought fol-
what they are worth and sold fol
what they think they are worth
coast land exploiters could be made
to look like thirty cents. Indeed
the most flagrant and brazen graf
in comparison would look like i;
philanthropic donation. But the,
cannot. and so the matter drops.
However, was Putnam's and tn,
, Tribune's sphere of influence wide
5 than it is it would indeed amount tt
t a calamity. For what petty jealous,
S ever wrankles in his bosom that h
t does not attempt to turn into
n community feud? Or what schem
t is there, dark and rank enough t,

r does not clothe with glory and en-
|. due with artificial light to make thu
t worst appear the better part? An,

Moving pictures, says the Bulletin

compose it. They are not only
hustlers, but they are business men
of the finest type, honorable in
their transactions, and reliable in
the service which they give to
their patrons. That their bust

ural consequence of the energy
and sound mthods which they have
brought to bear i'm conducting it,;
and in view of these things, it
seems reasonably certain that it
will continue to grow in the fu-
ture. Satisfied customers are the
best foundation upon which to
build successful business. adv
