Secretary Meyer Is Justified In his condemnation of the Democratic House for declaring, in caucus, against the construction of two bat tle ships a year. "Even with a con tinuous program of two battle ships annually," says the secretary, "the United States would, a year hence, be a little behind Its present effective strength, for In another year four of our present battle ships will become noneffective." The Democrats cut off naval construction In the name of economy. Very properly the secretary calls thla costly economy. A little more of the same sort of economy Is shown In the cuts In the army appropriation bill, by which there will be a pretense of saving $2,000,000 or $3,000,000 a year. The effectiveness of the army will be di minished however, and the reduction In outlay will be a waste instead of BUSINESS TEST FOR 1912. By figures fresh from a govern ment bureau it Is seen that the ex ports of manufactured articles from the United States In the year 1911 passed the billion-dollar line for the first time. The Increased demand for the things produced by American manufacturers, artisans and inventors extends to all continents. In the last ten years the gain in this respect has been 36 per cent In Asia 64 In Africa, 70 In Europe, 15S In North America and IIS In South America. The old Democratic claim that a protectlv tariff breaks down our fore'gn trade has been knocked out bo hard that It Is offered no more In Intelligent de bate. This subject Is of great Import ance In the United States, whose pop ulation in the last decade Increased at the average rate of 1,600.000 a year Opportunities for employment must keep pace if good industrial condl tions are to be preserved. An enlarg Ing foreign market for what our work men make is one of the best assur ances of prosperity. Th's year Republican policies are upon trial with the judgment in the hands of 16.000,000 votes. Any form unvinff Persons who stand close to the President say he will veto the Protection In a tariff is condemned bill if It reaches him in anything like Its present shape.

New Stock Journal Has Bright Future SHAW NOW JAILER AND PEACE OFFICER (Continued front pngo 1) With the entrance of the Western Stock Journal Into the field of trade journalism stock breeders and those Interested in livestock have an ex cellent medium for representation. The February Issue of the Western Stock Journal, Just off the press, Is the first In the life of this new trade paper and if the high standard, both as to print and material Is maintain ed there seems little doubt as to its uuuualified success. The pages contain many valuable articles on livestock and stock condi tions which should prove a decided help to the breeder. Special subjects are treated by experts In the livestock business under their own signatures and the wide field covered by the Journal Includes all species of live stock. The Western Stock Journal Is de voted exclusively to livestock and stock breeding and is the only Jour nal on the Pacific Slope confining its attention to stock breeding alone. The particular territory throughout which the Western Stock Journel circulates embraces the states of Oregon Wash ington, Idaho, Montana and Califor nia. These pacific states are rapid ly developing the stock Industry and the peculiarly favorable climatic and soil conditions render this territory ideal for stock breeding. The hog breeding branch of the livestock Industry la perhaps more marked in its adcanve than any other. Particularly Is this true of the Poland-China variety. Cattle, sheep horses, and goats all thrive and the raising of this class of stock Is forging rapidly ahead. All of these various kinds of livestock are mott amply treated In the columnB of the Western Stock Journal In a forceful and intelligent manner. A feature that Is new and which will prove of unquestionable value to all stockmen, is a Law Department. This is a treatise in itself and will be one of the salient features of the Journal. The editorials are strong and to the point, dealing entirely with livestock and what should be done to better the various breeds. The Journal Is profusely Illustrated with pictures of stock which adds much to the value of the printed mat ter. The Western Stock Journal had Its Inception at the State Fair held at Salem last year when stockmen (lis cussed the launching of an organ de voted to stock breeding only, a Jour nal that would be representative of the livestock Industry. The question has been finally settled and several stockmen have pooled and are support ing the Western Stock Journal flnanc tally, thus Insuring Its permanency. The Western Stock Journal Is es sentially an Oregon product from Its Inception to Its appearance in the journalistic field. It had its birth In Oregon and Its home is at Oregon City where It is published, with tern porary offices in the Andresen block. The Journal Is beautifully printed and the artistic arrangement of the material is unusual for a trade Jour nal. Stockmen or those who are in terested in a new home city publica tion may obtain a sample copy by ad dressing the Western Stock Journal, Oregon City, or calling at the office In the Andresen block. The Journal will be on sale at the news stands wlihln the week. The advent of the Western Stock Journal fills a long felt want of the stock breeders, they never having en Joyed an organ devoted alone to their interests. The Enterprise welcomes the West ern Stock Journal and wishes It suc cess in this field of the Pacific North west, the great and growing livestock industry, which has long needed rep resentation through a medium of its own. charges ngaliiHt the night police, " Hy order of O.

The meeting was not called for the purpose of Investigating charges yet to be made, but your meeting was for the purpose of Inves tigating charges already made, which hurgc were as they were, either oral or In writing, and feeling that your Investigation was not sincere we there fore, and for that reason, were nox ious to testify and at three different times during the afternoon asked you to put us under oath that wo might state to you what we knew.

"We therefore ask you, will you proceed with the Investigation and call us to testify." Mr. Hedges' statement inado a pro found Impression upon every one present, except thoso of the Dlmlck faction, and Judge Hayes, tho De mostheueso of that coterie, took ex ceptions to almost every word the other advocate had said. Judge Hayes declared that he demanded an Inves tigation: that he wanted It to be above board and free from bias. "As a citizen and a taxpayer I want If n (Saikflinigi fmdm ABSOLUTELY rURE Makes delicious Iiomc baked foods ol maximum quality at minimum cost.

This will reduce the water rate In h sufficient amount, it Is thought, that the- rai lines will have to cut their rates to meet the water competition. However, Major Mclndoe, In his re port to the War Department recent ly, calculated that 20 per cent of the merchandise passing between Portland and Cpper Willamette River points will be bandied by the canal. He esti mates the merchandise handled an nually at 000,0'mi tons, which would give the canal 120,000 tons yearly. There Is also a fair movement of pas sengers at all seasons of the year whn the river is open. The Willamette Is navigable as far south as Corvallis.

You waited until the Mayor appointed Green Chief of Police to make them. Judge Hayes said the accusers were Irvine to "hide behind shadows " He said It was the custom In legislatures and the Congress of the United States when men were accused to make the charges In writing. He cited the case of Senator Smxt. Judue Hays, pointing at Mr Hedges declared he never henrd of a councilman being represented by lawyer before.

"I wlit out and Investigated this matter' said Mr. Tooze. "The truth Is tbeso men were off their beats when the should have been on them "We want It In writing," demanded Judee Haves. "You d'lje not go on," answered Mr Hedges "I c?n't understand why you do not .vant io put the charges In writing, x;ild Mi'yor Dimlck. This Is custoat ary." Councilman Heurd said It looked iJ him more like l he louncll wan being' Investigated tlinr. the police. I lo de clared It made no difference whether the charges were made orally or in writing. He thought the accused men must have a poor case If they would not face the charges. "Do you know when wo make our beats on the hill. said Policeman Green to Councilman Tooze. I decline to answer, It Is some dirty scheme," was the retort. Judge Hayes declared the accusers were guilty of the "dirty scheme," and said the reason the charges were de manded In writing was because the policemen wanted a chance to defend thc-mselvea. The time may come when we will have an investigation and then we will make our charges In our own way,1, said Mr. Hedges. This, some thought, suggested a recall, or some thing like that. Councilman Pope scored a decided hit. He made a suggestion that had never been even hinted at before, and that was that the police committee of the city council make an Investiga tion and have a hearing. It was not kindly received, however. Councilman Heard moved that Po licemen Green and Frost be suspend ed until they were tried and vindi cated. The Mayor said he might sus pend the tho men if the charges were In writing. A facetious taxpayer, who was occupying standing room, was heard to say, sotto voce, "The nearest approach to a suspension hereabouts for sometime will be the suspension bridge." Councilman Meyer said If the charges had been made against hlnr and were not true he would have the accusers arrested for blackmail. "I wouldn't be monkeying around here," added the councilman. When Councilman Tooze told the Mayor that written charges were op posed because trickery was feared, the Mayor retorted: , 'You are not a gentleman for mak ing these remarks. I am sorry that that matter will go Into writing and be published. ' Immediately thereafter the Mayor declared Portland newspapers would iend reporters up here and report the whole thing Just as If the Morn- ng Enterprise, the only daily between 'ortland and Salem, has not been glv- ng columns of Its space to the coun cil wrangle. This statement almost made the Enterprise man hot, but he was glad afterward that he preserved his equanimity. "It's been a Prownell fight against me," declared the Mayor. And here ended the fourth chapter. Result NIL AUTO OFFERED IN FRIENDLY CONTEST EAGERLY SOUGHT BY SCORES.
