The Willamett valley is now thinking over the advantages to be gained by irri gation. There seems to be great uncertainty as to the outcome of Secretary Taft's mission to Cuba. While the Guard is not much of an imperialist, it seems to us that Cuba, situated so close to the American mainland, ought of right to be annexed to this country, and especially so since all the stable elements of its population so desire. Notwithstanding the brave efforts of the past four years to maintain a stable government every pfbUll &i All IdHuildr Willi Cuud and tile j Cuban people knew that it was orly a question of a short time until there would be civil strife of a nature that would re quire the intervention of the United States government. Nor can we any longer play the dog in the marger act. We drove Spain out of Cuba and notified all the rest of Europe to keep hands off anJ yet shrink from performing any plain duty there in establishing stable govern ment and protecting the rights of Ameri can citizens and the people of other na tions who look to us to afford them the protection we deny to their own govern ment.

T-e yojng ' man did so and the quack c:ct,'r frght- ; ened him so badly t"..t Sjniay he at- j tempted suicide in Portland. uuacK Doctors are ao:ut as cad as strychnine when tach serlcsy.
