"Fiag of the free heatrs' hope" and
home!
By Angels' hands to valor givenr :
Thy stars have lit the welkin dome,
And all thy hues were born in
Heaven.
Forever float that standard sheet!
Where breathes the foe but falls be
fore us.
With Freedom's soil beneath our feet,
And Freedom's banner streaming
o'er us."
JOSEPH DRAKE.
A DUTY OF THE STATE
A strike characterized by lawlessness and even blood
shed has been on for weeks at the water front in Portland".
The assaulted have been rushed to the hospitals or to
their homes; The assaulters have been arrested and the
jails and courts occupied with men who demand certain
conditions for work and not being able to force their de
mands take the position that other men similarly situated
in the industrial marts of the community shall not take
their places and thus thwart them in their demands for
certain wap-es and conditions.
Upon the basis that might makes right the strikers
took the law into their own hands and committeed unlaw
ful acts against the state and committed personal wrong
upon their fellow men.
The employers aver they cannot grant the conditions
the striking longshoremen would impose through their
union and stand upon the assumption that they have a
right to employ whom they will. And then the strike
breaker-takes the position that he has a right to earn his
living when, where and by what legal way he chooses.
All three parties may be and are probably wrong in
the premises taken with reference to methods of
settlement. The strikers in the methods of as
sault and personal injury; the employers in applying
methods which mean industrial warfare without first
trying means promotive of fair and peaceful adjustment'
of differences. The strike breakers tempt their fellow
men at a period of highest tension to unjust provocation.
The state, however, fails in its duty most of all. The
State Mediation Board should have the authority to re
view such industrial troubles with a view to minimizing
the hatred engendered; and to bring together employer
and employees to consider the welfare of each other and
the state itself.
The interests of the state are always affected as are
those of the employers and the workers themselves and
it should devise, a means whereby it can protect itself.
One way is to make the Arbitration Board operative with
justice insured for all parties. And to act promptly is an
other essential factor to success. . .
beating the dumb creature, whether bird or beast. And
this is proper. Punishment is usually not severe enough
for those who neglect or abuse these dumb creatures un
able to help themselves.
Why then should these owners of stock on the ranges
be permitted to neglect their flocks and herds, because
by so doing they can show a larger money balance than by
providing food and shelter. They can and they will thus
provide when the law compels them to do so.
It is now but a few months before the rigors of win
ter on the Eastern plains will again set in; The State
Humane Society and the state itself should demand that
the practices of animal neglect for dollars-should be'no
longer tolerated ANYWHERE in the commonwealth. -
Arid the local "Mourning sheet" having guessed
wrong on its "Eleventh hour" proclamation has yet a
crumb of comfort-school District Number 62 is still
within the "fold."
BANNER THOUGHTS
IN POETRY
GO PLANT A TREE
(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox)
A RIGHTEOUS MOVEMENT
Oh! What a joy it is to plant a tree!
And from the sallow earth to watch
it rise,
Lifting its emerald branches to the
skies
In silent adoration; and to see
Its strength and glory waxing with
each spring.
Yes, tis a goodly and a gladsome
thing
To plant a tree.
Nature has many marvels; but a tree
Seems more than niarvelous; it is
Divine.
So generous, so tender, so benign.
Not garrulous, like the rivers, and yet
free
In pleasant converse with the winds
and birds.
Oh, privilege beyond explaining
words,
To plant a tree!
Rocks are majestic; but, unlike a tree.
They stand aloof and silent. In the
roar
Of ocean billows breaking on the
shore
There sounds the voice of turmoil
But a tree
Speaks ever of companionship and
rest.
Yea, of all righteous acts, this is
best
To plant a tree.
There is an oak oh, how I love that
tree!
Which has been thriving for a hun
dred years.
Each day I send my blessing
through the spheres
For one who gave this triple boon
to me
Of growing beauty, singing birds
and shade.
Wouldst thou win laurels which
shall never fade?
Go plant a tree!

human aspect of the procedure.
If it is wrong and both law and society declare it
is to allow a single animal 'to starve or freeze in Clack
amas county where or when such inhuman wrong need
not be, it is just as surely wrong to deliberately figure on
allowing thousands of sheep and cattle to freeze and
starve in Eastern Oregon. Persons, are prosecuted for
mere neglect of a single dog, cat, horse, and other animal.
They are likewise punished for applied cruelty such as

Wealth That Works
Money saved and deposited in a bank is wealth that works.
Wealth that works is capital. Unilke brain and muscle, it does
not wear out or deteriorate. It grows and improves.
The only gain from labor is what is saved. Labor, therefore,
makes wealth and when wealth works it is capital.
Capital at work pays wages, which, when saved, creates more
capital. Labor -is the producer when labor saves.
