Though far from fully healed, Ray Oliver was able to leave the hospital for a turn down this morning. He has been bedfast for weeks at the hospital after sustaining a very seri ous fracture of the left leg above the ankle when a horse fell on him near Hot Lake. The bones are still in cast and he is far from complete re covery, but galled at prolonged idle ness he determined this morning that a taxi ride would do him good. "Hank" Davis a Gasoline Fan. For some time tho ceunty court has felt the need of a trusty automobile that could be used as a truck and a passenger car as well. "Hank"' Davis, the road man and bridge erec tor, is frequently called out several miles to do some work on the roads and he loses time by using horses. A few days ago the county court was of fered a bargain in a semi-truck and immediately bought it. Now "Hank" is a gasoline fan proper and he drive with conssiderable caution and fair speed, always remembering that the state laws prescribe only 25 miles per hour on the dirt roads. SOLDIER ON HIKE. Endurance Test Across Continent Kept Up to Schedule. Shortly afternon today a regular army private who is on an endurance hike from Washington to Port'and. reached La Grande from Hot Lake where he breakfasted.

The former president bitterly ass-jilod tho ntair.ktralio'i Mexican policy and particularly the stripping of coast artillery fortilications to ob tain infantrymen for the invading forces. Roosevelt said he believed in "in ternational duty" and he explained in ternational duty as making a nation a member of a commonwealth, with tho duty not only to refrain from wronging the weak but according to our capacity and as opportunity offers stand up for the weak when tho weak are wronged ly the strong. This principle, the colonel said, ought to have brought America to raise her Voice when Belgium was over-run. "When this war is over, it Is possi ble that some one of the combatants, being fully armed, will assail us be cause we offer ourselves as a rich and helpless prize. On tho other hand, it is also possible that there will be temporary exhaustion among the combatants and a willingness, fven with the present most brutal and ruth less, to go through the form of say ing that they are peaceful and harm less. In such events there will be real danger lest our people be influenced by the foolish apostles of uiiprcpared ness to accept this condition as per manent and once more to shirk our duty of getting ready." The former president pointed to the Mexican "war" as an example of unpreparedness, and bitterly assailed the stripping of coast artillery men from fortifications to press them into service as infantrymen in Mexico. He turned next to the administration's at titude in the world war. "The failure to prepare," he said, "tho failure to stand up for the rights of ourselves and of others, yielding to wrongdoing, resulted both in defer ring the day when it was possible for this nation to act as peacemaker, and in bringing us immeasurably nearer to the danger of ourselves being in volved in the conflict. Weakness in vites contempt. Weakness combined with bluster invites both contempt and aggression. Self-respecting strength that respects the rights of j ot'A'is is the only quality that secures respect from others. The former president said the transportation of troops from Russia to France; from Australia to Galli poli, illustrated the fallacy of the claim that the ocean wns prepared ness insurance for tho United States. Ho urged universal training as a means, not only of national prepared ness, but of democratizing. Referring to business regulations, the colonel said: "The aim of government should not be to destroy the great industrial units, hut, while encouraging them to regulate them in the interests of the people as a whole." Abolition of child labor, ho said, was necessary because "in addition to treating our brother man and sister woman as we would wish them to treat us, we must also endeavor, so far as we are able, to secure them just treatment by others." "The end we have in view," the colonel concluded," is a high and fine national life, based on ar. industrial efliciecy which shall h& accompanied by social and economic justice. Mili tary preparedness against war is merely a means to this end. But it is an indispensable means. We are not fit to be free men unless we show the forethought and will power necessary to insure that we ourselves shall have the right to decide our own destinies and not he forced helplessly to sub mit to have them decided by alien con querors.
