II idson, an able writer on Ihis subject. attempted to demonstrate that these suggestions may be given to the patient, in both the wakeful and sleeping states; that auto-sug gestions arc given to himself, either consciously or sub-consciously, and the eilects are expressed upon the body c ither for good or ill. The Christian Scientists contend there is only one mind, the divine principle Truth, which cures a person from sin or disease. To quote from Mrs. Eddy: "There is no life, truth, intelligence nor substance in matter. All is Infinite. Mind infinite an<l Its manifestation; for liod is all in all; spirit is immortal truth ; matter is mortal error." And furthermore, that all sin and disease have no place in the divine economy, are mere reflections of er roneous beliefs, which will disappear in proportion as humanity shall de velope spiritual understanding. These different cults, from their own standpoint, furnish numerous testimonials to support their claims. An increasing number of physicians according to reports use mental sug gestion in their practice, especially in the treatment of nervous diseases and functional complaints; that the method of treatment is scientific and not religious, thus disagreeing with the Christian Scientists, who forcibly contend their treatment overcomes sin and sickness of every kind, whether functional or organic, and make the further claim which is cal culated to appeal to Bible students, that Christ having commanded liis apostles and disciples to cast out sin and heal the sick, it was designed by the Master that His followers during the oncoming centuries should follow this command. This process of mental healing is not confined to any one religious de nomination, whether Protestant, Catholic or Jewish. An account of the good results achieved at the Cathedral St. Ann de Beaupre speaks thus: " The lame, the halt and the blind come and are cleansed, and go away leaping and singing and prais ing God." The Catholic church of Lourdes comes forward with testi monies of like character. The re cent Emmanuel movement combin ing both phases of healing, but hav ing a more material basis than Christian Science, is spreading rap idly over this country among differ ent church organizations. Societies for teaching this new propaganda have been formed at Boston, New York city, Chicago, St. Louis and other cities. Science is to know; religion is a matter of faith. There is no doubt that respecting the majority of re ligious beliefs, the underlying mo tives are good and praiseworthy. Is not religion a result sought rather than a truth possessed? Otherwise, why are there so many different sects and cults? It would seem materialistic philos ophy reached its zenith at the latter end of the eighteenth and at the be ginning of the nineteenth centuries. Since then the philosophy of ideal ism and soul has been struggling for the ascendancy in the realms of scien tific and religious thought. No man or woman with present lights is able to tell definitely the outcome. Let truth and error grapple now as in the past, and the result cannot be otherwise than beneficial to man kind. SOMK of Judge Hoot's former ac quaintances think this unfortunate man, since his recent unpleasant ex perience, is over-anxious to parade his poverty before the public. 11 was not supposed he was a man of expen sive habits by persons who knew him well. When he went on the bench, he had a good legal practice at Seattle and the salary of the judgeship was four thousand dollars per annum, which office he held alxnit four years. Such a salary ought to maintain the average man s family in comfortable circumstances. OREGON is having some of the old time troubles with which our com monwealth is familiar, of her own. It is now considering a suggestion for removal of the State Capital and holding the State Fair hereafter in Portland. It is also asked that a branch insane asylum be established in Eastern Oregon, and Baker and L mat ilia counties are rivals for the location, which affords available trading material for placing the cap ital and fair propositions on wheels. IT is reported that Evelyn Xesbit Thaw will make Spokane her home, for a time, with her grandmother. SI I»I»1.\ HFATII or IIAZKL HAKIMS FIIOM i II K I'KCOKDf K i>F MONDAY Talented I'iani-t ami One of OlviupiaV Fairest and .Most Popular I(am: liter- >II< ciiiiili- after ISrii'f 111 n«—from Scarlet Fever I mo ral Tin -dav under Auspices of Musicians' I 11 ion. and Washington streets. The deceased was twenty years of age. a talented pianist, and one of Olympia's fairest and most jxipular yonng ladies. For some.time she had been performing in the local orchestra. She had been thus engaged. Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. 'and it was not until arriving home Wednesday night that she complained of feeling ill. Miss Harris was a general favorite with all who knew her, and she was one of the young ladies from Olympia who won the trip to Los Angeles, in the r-()lampinn subscription contest a year ago last summer. Her death was a great blow to her parents, and Mrs. Harris is prostrated with grief. Mother and daughter were inseperable com panions, and were almost always together when seen in public. A pathetic feature also, is that the young lady had been enjoying high anticipations for the legislative ball Tuesday evening, is to be [was] buried in the lovely gown that was to have been her ball-dress. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon from Whiteside's under taking parlors, under the auspices of the Musicians' Union, liev Messias officiating, and interment was made in the Odd Fellows' cemetery. Radical Measures Necessary. There is a pronounced element in the present California legislature which proposes to prohibit foreigners from acquiring lands in that State or becoming directors or trustees in local corporations. This prohibition is eviden'ly aimed at the Japanese, but under treaty regulations with the United States, it would lie unlawful to discriminate between foreign-born citizens possessing Caucasian and Mongolian blood, as applied to the subjects of the Mikado. While the lat ter, it seems, cannot become natural ized citizens of this country, there is no such impediments respecting Cau casian subjects of the countries of Europe. The Governor of California has intimated he will veto any legis lation of this character, which would only tend to keep foreigners out of the borders of the State. Within the purview of the United States Con stitution, the treaty-making power is superior to any State legislation, or State constitutional provision on the same subject. Thus it is readily seen a State may, without the con sent of her citizens, thrust upon her territory undesirable citizens. There is strong reason for the conclusion that the Federal constitution ought to be changed in this respect. The States ought to lie allowed to deter mine tliK kind of citizens they may desire to locate within their bound aries, Ijecause in a large measure all of such inhabitants have to dwell together as neighbors. The people living in a State are a part of this great nation, interested in the gen eral welfare of their country, have the power to make laws for the pun ishment of crime and the protection of property. If they can be en trusted with such important powers and duties, why should not a State of this Union have the right to say ! whether it wanted Asiatics to in vade its territory and menace its | interests? This conclusion seems to be irresistible, when we come to con sider the question of the Japenese floating in great numbers in this Pa cific Coast country. They are not needed here to compete with our laborers or our middle-class pro ducers, or merchants, or for any other legitimate purpose. Protec tion in this regard should be invoked in the most emphatic manner. Our Government can not afford to allow Japan the privilege of determining to our detriment the question whether her subjects are becoming too numer ous among us for our own well-being. The Asiatics are cunning rather than intellectual. Through their subtlety in the realm of diplomacy, unless close ly watched, they may gain undue ad vantages in this country, which will cause our people many regrets in the approximating future. The time is at hand for less party politics and more efficient statesmanship. LAST week, Chicago experienced warmer weather than in any Janu ary since 1870. Saturday the mer cury climbed to G6 degrees and ex ceeded the record of that year by one degree. In 189(5, the tempera ture reached, on January 29th, 61 degrees, but only for a brief period. In Chicago, last Saturday, people wore thin clothing, and in homes and offices all heat was shut off and windows and doors were thrown open. Physicians declare that the unusual temperature at this time of the year, will result in much illness, as it is likelj" to plant the germs of pneumonia and kindred ailments. A dispatch says one peculiarity of the unusual weather is the soggy nature of the atmosphere, making it diffi cult to breathe. THERE is great spiritual unrest abroad. The field is open for debate whether mankind is not now passing from the intellectual realm to regime of soul. News uf the sudden death uf Miss Hazel i! arris, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. X. Harris. Saturday evening, came as a shock to her many friends in this city. Miss Harris had been ill since only Wednes day evening, devslop lng scarlet fever, and it was not thought she was in a serious condition until short ly before her death, which occurred al>out six o'clock. Saturday evening, at the fami ly home, on Second street, between Main AVill Wonders Never Cease? It has been thought by many that when a record of the human voice could be inscribed upon a wax cylin der and reproduced at will, that the acme of inexplicable inventive won ders had lieen attained, but now comes Mr. 11. P. O'Reilly, demonstra tor of the Tclegraphone, the inven tion of I'oulscn, the Danish Edi son. his work differing, however in that it is more in the line of de velopment of an idea originating in the brain of our own distinguished countryman. The wonder is on exhibition at Sawyer & Filley's store, where it at tracts crowds of mystified visitors. The record, instead of being made on a cylinder or disc, by minute indenia tions. is held on a small steel wire, wire that is made to pass rapidly from a cylinder, or s]>ool, to another, during which time a record !s made by the sound-waves from the trans mitter by an electro-magnet in waves of magnetism on the steel wire. The record is invisible to the eye but per manent. AH you have to do is re verse the cylinder until you arrive at the point where the record began, hold the receivers to your ears, and start the machine, and you will hear an exact reproduction of the words that were used, in the instances tint came under our observation in mak ing a series of tests. The many advantages of this sys tem of recording sound are apparent when we consider that this form of record can lie of any length and is absolutely accurate and practically indestructable. A whole opera may be caught on a slender wire and re produced and heard by the person holding the tubes to the ears. The business man may dictate as many letters for his copyist to transcribe as may suit opportunity or conveni ence and retain a permanent record, to use if necessary for correction of errors. A modification of the machine makes a record on a steel disc which will be carried anywhere in the coun try by mail for a two-cent stamp, and its message produced on any like machine. The Telegraphone will be rented to the public, and doubtless generally adopted by business men, Mr. Filley will install one for public use, and furnish discs and use of the machine for a nickel, making the cost of a verbal postal card only seven cents. DIES OF NIGHTMARE. A man named Marion Nice, a farmer living near Eugene City, Lane county, Ore gon, died from nightmare, Saturday morning. Hehad beensubjoct to that infliction for years, and was in his usual health when this last visita tion came. His wife was awakened at an early hour by his groans, but it being so usual an occurrence paid no attention to them. When he failed to rise at his regular hour, she found that he was dead. JriMIESANn THE JUUICIARY.— When the bill before the U. S. Senate for the increase of judicial salaries was recently considered, Senator Tillman remarked, that there are Federal Judges on the pay-roll of corpora tions. Senator Bailey, of Texas, ob served, before appointment of such judges, corporations were first con sulted; that according to his observa tion and experience the higher the salaries of the judiciary were fixed, the jioorer material was placed uj>on the bench. A PIERCE county Judge in a divorce trial persuaded the parties to make up. By acting as a court of concilia tion he undoubtedly performed better service in behalf of the State than he could have done by granting a decree of separation with an alimony ap pendage. TACITIS, the historian, observed laws multiply during periods of gov ernment decay and dissolution. I- This Equity ? Several months before the installa tion of the present city administra tion. Mrs. Mary K. Church, a widow lady living ou the Kastside, presented her claim against thecity asking that her street-urade assessment, levied 1 against her property on Third street ,he refunded, as the same was paid under protest to avoid the costs of a law suit. The STANDARD lias reecnt jlv been informed from the City I Clerk's oflice that this claim has not | yet been allowed. It seems Mrs. \ Church's property, with regard to the old assessment and the si;b>i-- j()uent re-assessment, was in the same situation as that of Mrs. J. I). Knox, who became the owner of propertv ! on the same street, charged with the original assessment. Mrs. Knox es caped payment on the ground of laches on the part of the city, by a recent decision of the Supreme Court, eleven years having intervened be tween these two assessments. The lady who paid her street tax under protest, doubtless thinks it is but fair she should have her money returned, that justice requires all parties in the same situation should be treated in a similar manner. Did not St. Paul say, visit the fatherless and widows in their afflic tion? The great Apostle did not mean they should lx> inflicted. There an; other cases pending which will present the questions, whether the city is guilty of negli gence by allowing nine years to in tervene between the- original anil re assessment. and whether this issue can be raised in any event on fore closure of liens in such cases, unless the owners shall have first made their objections before the council, on the hearing as to the regularity of the as sessment. The Knox case seems to have left the latter proposition in doubt, from the reading of the Su preme Court's opinion, or public at tention has been somewhat directed to these proceedings, in that if it shall appear the city has lieen negli gent, the interested owners of the special fund warrants may attempt to recover their losses outof thecity's general fund. CONGRESSMAN WII.I.ETT, of New York, in his recent address in the lower house of Congress gave our President a severe thrust when he stated the administration is engaged in hunting out Russian political refu gees for the purpose of surrender ing them to a cruel despot to suffer torture and death. For daring to use their efforts in favor of political lib erty these refugees are to suffer ig nominy, and may be death. Shades of Patrick Henry and Jefferson! The precedents established when Schurz and other old-country patriots who sought an asylum from tyranieal gov ernments in our land of the free and the home of the brave, are no longer recognized. Tuft's visit with the Czar on his trip around the globe may be significant in this connection. THE schooner Soqucl was wrecked last Friday night on Sea Bird Rocks, on Vancouver Island, near the place where the Valencia was lost three years before, to a day. She was well known on the Sound, being owned by J. P. Hanify & Co., of San Fran cisco, who also owns the Westside mill in Olympia, and for a time was engaged in carrying cargoes of lum ber to market. She was command ed by Capt. Carl llcnningsen, whose wife and daughter were killed by a falling mast when the vessel ran on the rocks. This was to have been the last trip of the Captain, who was for that reason accompanied by his family. On his return ho intended to give up the sea. POI-E the great English scholar and writer, when he retired kept writing material in easy reach ; was thus en abled to make notations of his choicest thoughts which brought fame to him as a literary genius. Philosophers and statesmen in all ages have prof ited by treating those nocturnal visitors with respectful consideration. Many financiers after going to bed to rest have solved difficult business problems—nay, more, many women have met and overcome perplexing problems while at work with the needle or over the wash-tub. Often our subconscious is wiser than our objective self. " A PROl'urr is not without honor, save in his own country." This was the language of Christ. He spent his boyhood days at Nazareth, but when He began to preach He went to Capernaum, at which place He es tablished his headquarters. A news paper may be discredited in a city where published, but favorably con sidered elsewhere. So it is the case with individuals residing in a given community who are not missed until they shall move away, and then not for very long. Environ ment plays an important part in the lives of mankind. ONE of the LARGEST excursions that will visit the Pacific Northwest this summer will be under the auspices of the Board of Trade of Worcester, Massachusetts. Several days will Ixi devoted to the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition and visiting Portland and other cities of Oregon and Washing ton. Their own glee club has Ixn-n organized among the excursionists, and the itinerary mapped out covers more than six thousand miles of travel. Two women hhigwayman held up an aged homesteader and robbed him of #SO, last week, on a lonely road near North Bend. After relieving him of his coin they unmercifully beat him with their revolvers and then escaped in the underbrush. SUMMONS FORECLOSURE OF TAX LIEN 1 in I hi* Superior Court of thf Statv of !
