RIVERSIDE PARK POPULAR.
Many Gatherings Slated for La
! Grande's Place for Recreation.
The Kaiser Says History Will Clear
Htm ot Blame for War.
London, Aug. 15. The Daily News
today printed a Berne dispatch quot
ing the kaiser as saying:
"1 don t envy the men having the
responsibility of this war on his con
science. I, at least, am not that man.
J believe history will clear me of the
charge although I do not suppose his
tory will hold me faultless. In a
sense every civilized man in Europe
must share the responsibility. The
higher his position the larger his re
sponsibility. I admit that, yet claim
I acted in good faith throughout and
strove for peace although war was
inevitable."
The News said the kaiser made the
statement to a prominent neutral vis
iting Berlin.
j That Riverside park is rapidly re
paying in every way all the money
and trouble that has been bestowed
upon it is plainly apparent. The park
has become the natural rallying place
for picnics, societies, churches and all
'organized civic divisions all the way
from the small, individual citizen who
likes to wade or swim or shoot the
chutes, the equally rolicksome de
votees of the dance and the "winnie"
fests up to the matured ones who like
a place of quiet meeting. The park
is the common gathering place for all.
Just recently in a small section in
a corner of the park grounds adjoin
ing the river auto tourists are allowed
"camping1" privileges. This is a verit
able boon to the country's new bri
gade of tramps who hail all the way
from New York to Texas and back
again. This is a good advertisement
for La Grande. Those who are doing
the country by the gasoline mode are
entitled to such privileges. They will
spend enough anyway to make up the
difference in having a free spot to al
low their outfits to cool.
L,ocany, it is oimcuit to imagine
Detroit Political Battle Ground
Detroit, Aug. 16. Detroit politi
cal battle ground of the nation! Such
it is today. For the first time in its
history the issues of a great cam
paign are being fought out by the
leaders in this city of the middle west.
Roosevelt started the tide of battlo
Detroitward when he came here to
preach preparedness. President Wil
son selected the City of the Straierhts
for his most important address of the
pre-campaign period. Charles Evans
Hughes launched his campaign for
the Presidency August 7. Ask Mich
igan politicians why and the answer
almost invariably is: "Ford." Roose
velt came to fight the anti-militaristic
movement that crystalized follow
ing Henry Ford's unexpected appear

primaries. Wilson picked Detroit as
the place for his address on Mexican
relations. (Politicians Ibelieve that
the 'selection of Detroit was be
cause he recognized it as a repre
sentative industrial center. Then
came Hughes, selecting Detroit as the
scene of his first offensive move in th
actual campaign. The motive of the
republican nominee in Dickinir the au

Michigan was the first state in the
