You may not realize it, but it is, when you stop to think of it.While it is trud that there is no. great moral wave sweeping over the country, nevertheless there is a strong current. constantly at work cutting away the foundation of immorality and ingreat results.The world was not sade in @ ey: aeitlier can it bereformed in aday. It takes time to accomplish great things. There are too many parkhursts in this world. They are a F DORTED BOS. San FRANCrsco, May 20—Porter Brothers, one “of the “Its —— =. Memorial Day will be observed here in a more. general manner this year than ever before, aid sach will be the} case all over the country, judging from present indications. At this} city, as usual, the Ladies Relief Corps; assisted by the Grand Army Veterans will take charge of the affair; and will be arsisted by Co; 0, N. G. O., the Nevada City Fire Department, Milo Lodge, Knights of Pythias,.and the public generally In making the coming Memorial Day service the best and most impressive that “ee been witnessed in this city. = A meeting of the Memorial Des Committee will be held tomorrow évening in Hén. J. M, Walling’s office, when arrangements will be made as to the program and ovher features connectéd good, well-meaning people, but they are impetuous and nervous and often hasty. Mayor Low had not warmed his seat in New York until-Rev. Parkhurst demanded that he banish. vice with one swoop. Of course this was asking the impos‘sible, but we cite the case to show how cranky and unreasonable-some people can be. A great many people are as ipteuipereie in their actions and language as others are in their habits. “ There was a time, not many. years ago, that a man to be “popular and successful.in business and political circles must be a boon companion of John Barleycorn. Many of our leading statesmen, politicians, lawyers and even newspaper men had a well Jeet Ry i‘whisky” blossom on their _ & grave. : How “Maticreat now. What a great chatige tas ‘been wrought and in a comparatively short time, It did not require a spasmodic upheaval to bring about this reform. Such _outbursts are ill-advised and often do more harm than good. The demands of advanced civilization are working wonders; a new moral code is gradually coming into effect, as a result ~—-of -which indiscretions that-were formerly winked at-are: ‘HOW frowned upon. fessional, political or-social life soon finds out that he must conform to the-rules of this codé if he would succeed in life. Look at the sweeping orders that are being issued from time to time by the great railroad companies, manufacturing concerns and banking institutions, to their employes and clerks, which orders are to the effect that they must not dfink during business hours or at all, and. must pay their just debts. . One company after another are following this plan in the employing of young men until within a few years several hundred thousand men will be included in the list. These great commercial bodies are the most powerful allies the church have in their reformation work. A man does net have to be a sage or a philosopher to see the work of this strong undercurrent. It is slow, but sure. 4y eo @€4284444646 THE SOUTH POLE EXPEDITION FTER many years of comparativ: neglect the Antarctic region is again exciting the interest of éxplorers, and recent discoveries make it probable, ‘that the south pole will be reached long before the north pole The voyage of the steamer Frahm, both with Nansen and since his famous trip, the journeys of Peary and others in remote and in recent times, all show the extreme difficulty of penetrating the extreme orth. These explorers agree in believing that the pole will ultimately be reached, but the experience of each is that the difficulties rapidly increase as they push northward. At the south pole the conditions are differentThe latest news from that region sent back from the British exploring steamer Discovery, which has already spent a year in the work and will spend another, gives a very encouraging account of the successes achieved and makes it seem proba= ble that when the expedition is next heard from even more sensational reports will be made. The Antarctic-regions prove less formidable than expected and much less formidable than those of the extreme north. The Discovery wintered four hundred miles farther south than any of “its predecessors and sled expeditions succeeded in reaching a point two degrees farther south than any of its predecessors and sled expeditions succeeded in reach. ng a point two degrees farther south than any previous explorers. This point, 80 degrees iand 17 minutes, is not as near the pole as explorers have reached in the Arctic regions, but the conditions found were so favorable that the trip might have been continued much farther without any great hardship had the explorers been properly prepared. At the southernmost point reached, a high tableland was found extending westward as far as the eye conld see, while southward mountains 10,000 to 12,000 feet high stretched so far to the-south that it is considered probable that land extends all the wey to the pole. With-the experience gained in the first year’s . ‘work it will not be surprising if when next heard from the . will have succeeded in reaching the southernmost point ad the earth, In order to properly observe this an. } ‘niversary commemorstive of the nobie. and illustrious heroes who came for‘ward in defense of our country, itis essential that all should assis*—not only in the general program on Memorial Day, but io preliminary and preparatory work. For instance, everybody can assist in the procuring and donation of flowers whieh will be needed by the Grand Army Veterans and the members of Oo. CG to decorate the graves of their deceased comrades; everybody owning lots in the cemeterjes can have them cleaned up nicely . before the 30th, and on that day see that boquete and flowers adorn the graves.of the departed ones.
