Our freedom from military rouccrlptlon I Hrltlah. Our ayatein of court, and admlntatratlon of justice la baaed upon that of Hrtt ain. Our language and literature are English. Hy race and by speech we are bound to our kindred beyond the sea Why then should be break with them? Aa to International friendship, there can be no compariaon between Ger many and England In relation to thl country. Germany Is neighbor far beyond the aea. and we have never been brought Inlo Intimate relation Ith her. Hrltlsh territory lies for over three thousand milea along our boundry, and our life history as a na tlon has been inextricably Interwoven with her. Had Germany, or Russia or Funce tor mat matter, ownw Canada, with their system of military conscription, would we have three thousand milea of boundry without slnglo fort, or a single soldier? Hud Germany owned Cannds we would be compelled to keep a standing army that would satisfy even the warlike aspirations of the Morning Orcgonlnn When this was but a colony Frsree had Its chain of forts from Pu quosne to the mouth of the Ohio, and the land was a great armed camp. What stronger evidence of friendship could we ask than our unprotected boundry Again, Frederick, the Great was not Germany. He was the benevolent old nthclst who ruled Hrandenhcrg and Prussia. He stole Silesia from his royal neighbor, Marie Theresa of Aus trla, and Polish Pomernnia from Po land. England helped the Austrian queen, and, not benevolent rrgnru lor tho American colonics, but pleasure that Ilritnln's ntteniUm was rallod away from his ambitious plans by their revolt, led to his congratulatory words. Hut how nmny dollars or how many men did he send to their assist ance? Our friends at that time were France, which sent us money, ships. and in on; and thoso at homo in Hrtt ain who opposed tho war. Pitt, Eng' land's greatest statesman, died on the floor of the house of parliament pro testing agniiiBt the oppression by his German soverolgn of tho American col onists. Tho war was so unpopular thut Bufflelont rocrulta could not be obtained to enrry on It. So Gcorgo of Hnnovor called In those benevolent gentlemen, tho Hessians Germans if you pleaso to holp him out on his bad job. These were the almlable gcntlomen whoso loving regard for the Americans was reciprocated by Wash Ington, who prepared for them tho lit tie surprise pnrty at Trenton. At that time Prussia was scarcely considered Germnn. the Hosstans being much more typically Gorman than they. There Is some history connected there with that I might give If necessary. Put Frederick's encouragement of tho colonists can not be quoted ns a sig nal Instance of German friendship. During the Civil war but one nation stood bu us, namely Russia. France and Austria sent Maximilian to Mex ico, and endeavored to establish a lit tle Europe there. At the close of the war, France heeded the American pro test and withdrew. - Maximilian was shot, his "queen" went Insane, and Austria was compelled by the force of circumstances to back down. But Russia, another of the allies, was our friend, as France nad been In the rev olution. We have had boundry disputes, fish eries disputes, and all kinds of mut ters of neighborly difference, all cf which have been settled In the most friendly and fair spirit by Britain. In fact we have had one hundred years of unbroken frienship under tho clos est of neighborly relations. This ev ery thinking man will allow.

In lVIS tl lake that year becaur It I tba lat't of which romleta return are at hand) w shipped abniad ll'.I.CTI.JH of breadatuff. and 111 million dollars worth of meat and dairy product or about JO million In all. Of thla about half waa aold lo the alll-. or 1 13 mil linn. Suppoae w tut off our trade with England, what would occur? Her colonic would irsnafrr tbvlr foreign trade to th home land and her friend. Canada In 1912 sold to coun tries outside the Hrltih empire IS" million dollar worth of fuodatuff. Auatralla. 1&0 million; India, ISO mil lion; Egypt, W million, and South Af rica i million dollar worth of corn alone. Tbla totals OS million dollar worth of foodstuff being aold outside the empire. Thl would make up our paltry 153 million with over 4U0 mil Hon dollar worth or foodaturr 10 pare. We would almply make bad friend of our neareat neighbors, and fool of ourselves; and have abso lutely no effect upon the war. Mr. Glnlher certainly did not look Into ac dial condition belore making this ar gument Aa to our trade relations. In 1912 we exported to the world $2,339,217,933 worth of mcrctmnJtae of all aorta. Of that quantity ' Germany purchased from us $33e.l50,S30 worth. Austria bought to the valuo of S24.04S.325. This made a total of $354,499,155 to the two natlona. The same year we shipped Russia good to the value of $26.09$.. France, $155,212,669; and Eng. land (exclusive of the rest of the em. plre), $606,974 967. and to Britain and Its dependencies France and Russia to gether we sold tho great total of $1 281,000,000. To all the world we only sold $2,399,217,993 worth of goods. Thus while the Teutons only take about 15 per cent of our exports the allies take something like 53 per cent, Discrimination upon our part would certainly lead to retaliation on their part. If not to worse. hy should we turn our back upon those who are our near neighbors and friends of a nun dred year standing, and who buy nearly four times as much of our prod ucts in times of peace? It would be like a merchant kicking bis best cus tomer out of his store because this man and an occasional purchnsor got Into a scrap, and the latter asked him to do so. Tho Americans love the Gcrniau people. They are a religious, clean- blooded race; the best stock In the old world (except the Scotch). Hence not antagonism to Germans, but the feeling that the subject races of Eu rope whose struggle for racial freedom and autonomy Is the Immediate cause of present war, ought to bo free; and moral revolt at the ravishing of the free nation of Uolglum against her will Is responsible for American cold ness towards the German cause. Ber nardl's works, published before the war, and the focussing of military rail ways upon the poor territory on Bel gium's boundry showed Belgium what she might expect, and circumstances showed that her . fears were not groundless. Both American fair play, and American interests are against a ur with tho allies. On the oilier hand, war, with Ger many Is just as distasteful. The war Is nono of our making. We have too many good friends and neighbors among the Gormun-Amerlciins to have any heart to butcher their European kinsmen. We have too much admira tion for the German nation, which we unhesitatingly recognize as tho great est in Europe Some of my Immedi ate kin are married to Germans, and I love them as much as I do those kins men themselves. I am as strongly op posed to war with Germany as I am to war with Britain. May God help us to remain utterly neutral as a na tion, then when the final settlement comes may we be In a position where e can sponk In no uncertain tones against the robbing of either Ger many or any of the allies, of territory that is theirs of right; or of any ac tion that will permanently or serious ly cripple any of those great nations.

Even the local market which haa been far the best on the roast to date. Is Inclined to show- weakness. Shipping business is at a completo standstill, some of the lead Ing buyers reporting today that they have not moved a carload for over week. This condition Is due seemingly to the fact that Oregon potato growers hnve entertained too high price Ideas this season and have held the bulk of their growth while Washington and Idaho as well as Colorado and Cali fornia have been selling. A private advice received here to day, from Los Angeles shows the gen eral trend. The advice slates that Idaho stock can bo landed thero at $1.15 a cental. The freight rate from Portland to Los Angeles Is 40c a cen tnl; therefore the extreme price that could be secured here for good ship ping quality Is 75c and this leaves nothing whatever for the buyer or for his evpense of buying and handl ing.

He became a telegraph operator and confined his work to news and brock erage, the most difficult wire work. He also picked up bookkeeping and Is an expert accountant. During the last 15 years he had been on the Pacific coast and worked In the principal cities, In cluding Portland, San Francisco and Seattle. His last position as a tele graph operator with the Southern Pa cific at Independence, three years ago. McKinnon Is not talkative, particu larly In speaking of his relatives. One brother Is a well-to-do Chicago broker, another Is an official of an Hawaiian sugar plantation and tbe rest are scat tered through the middle western. iiu for a pr0j of ber .

After leaving Independence, McKin non drifted down until he was em ployed at Beaver Creek he was em ployed as a mtllhand In the sawmill of George Lammers. One Wednesday morning early last month be was at the home of Charles White and the two men were emptying a bottle of whiskey. White's three-year-old son secured a drink and died from the ef fects and the child's grandmother tes tified that McKinnon gave the lad the fatal drink at the coroner's Investiga tion and McKinnon was arrested. McKinnon now says that the trag edy has been a lesson to him and that he will stop drinking and return to Chicago as soon as possible. He has a clean face and his eyes brighten when he speaks of the future: "I am through with booze. It Is peculiar how a man will drift away from his line of work as I have done, but I will return. I am going back to my brother as soon as I can and leave whiskey alone." George C. Brownell has been re tained as an attorney to represent McKinnon.
