EMPHASIZE LOYALTY
The adjourning of congrcw over Tuesday, June 5, Regis
-7
tration Day. veai entirtl commendable. Ihere can be no
more important business before a nation at war than the en
rollment of its citizens who are available to bear arms. Dut
when congress coupled with this eventful day the day pre
ceding, and took adjournment for Monday also in honor of
the Confederate Veterans who were that day opening their
annual encampment at the capital, conflicting emotions are
aroused in the American mind. We doubt if a similar circum
stance could happen in any other capital in the world. Cer
tainly the German reichstag would not adjourn if the surviv
ors of the revolution of 1 843 were to assemble in Berlin. It
is doubtful if the British parliament would suspend its ses
sions if the Sinn Fein were to hold a convention in London.
Nor is it likely that the French chamber of deputies would put
aside their labors if the remnants of the commune were to
meet in Paris. There may be such a thing as carrying mag
nanimity too far. Just now it is especially risky to do any
thing which even remotely tends to encourage the latter-day
Copperheads who are planning to resist the draft. These
hare-trained folk believe themselves to be right and if they
see congress paying undue honor to those who attempted to
destroy the government half a century ago, who can say that
they will not be prompted to further resistance in order that
they may gain equal posthumous dignity for themselves. This
is a time to emphasize loyalty and to frown upon treason, no
matter how historic it may have become.
JUDGE VV. L. BRAOSHAW
FROM HEART FAILURE
AND THE DEMAGOG CONTINUES TO ORATE
Politicians and reformers agitate for conservation of oil
land for future generations and produce on oil famine now,
They hammered the railroads until for three years out of
the past ten years the railroads were in the red.
They secured all kinds of laws excluding common labor
from our country until no more land is being cleared of brush.
For lack of equipment that they could not order a few years
ago, they are short of cars and engines.
The eastern car manufacturers have all been occupied mak
ing war supplies and could not fill orders for equipment
So there is Coming about a shortage of coal, oil, wood and
labor to harvest the crops and until the people cut out the dem
agog matters will grow worse.
The Southern Pacific company announces that western
states may look for a fuel famine, as coal, oil and wood sup
plies wf 1 be short.
Dearth of coal is due to shortage of labor in the coal mines
shortage of ships for coastwise and foreign coal and lack o
equipment for rail transportation.
And yet the people will listen to the demagog who produces
no oiL mines no coal, builds no ships or railroads and chops no

E
HARDING HITS HOME
The habit of administration senators and representatives to
assume a monopoly of the patriotism in the country simply
because they "stand by the president" has been held up to the
public in its true light by Senator Warren G. Harding of Ohio,
'1 think in making the world safe for democracy," remarks
Senator Harding, "we ought to make a contribution in our
country by making democracy safe for the American people
by puttiag patriotism above partisanship in times like these."
Those words were uttered in commenting upon a speech made
In the recent congressional campaign in New Hampshire by
Senator James Hamilton Lewis who told the voters that a vote
for the Republican candidate would be a vote for 'the kaiser,
for Germany, and for our country's enemies. Senator Hard
ing deplores that such an attitude should be assumed by any
one, and the decisive victory of the Republican candidate in
that state indicates that the people are not absorbing argu
ment8 of that kind.
GROW BEET SEED
If the farmers refuse, it is up to the sugar companies to
grow beet seed to meet our increasing demand. We have
been dependent mainly upon Russia for our supply since the
war began, but today the supply from that source is uncertain.
Prior to the war we purchased large quantities from Germany,
our reliance upon that source being such as to discourage the
production here, because Germany could offer it for sale
cheaper than we could grow it. When production in this coun
try is undertaken it should be fostered, and the foster-mother
of nearly all successful industry in this country in time of
peace is the protective tariff. Beet seed will stand a tariff
of a cent or two a pound. Let's have it and raise our own
seed from now on.
CHICAGO, June 19. Elimination
trials for the automobile derby to be
run at the speedway Saturday contin
ued today with 11 or more cars ready
to complete their time trials. The ellm
InaUons were started yesterday.
The fastest time made In the trials
yesterday was shown by Ralph D
Palma, who covered a two-mile lap at
the rate of 110 miles an hoar. Louis
Chevrolet was second with 107.S miles
an hour; Barney Oldfleld third at 107.4
miles an hour, and Joe Thomas fourth
with an average speed of 107.1 miles
an hour.
BIGGEST JUMP OF
WOODROW'S MITE
The President has "done his bit" by subscribing for $1 0,000
worth" of the Liberty Loan. He says he wishes the subscrip
tion were larger. But it is large enough. This is probably not
the last loan which the war will require, and Mr. Wilson will
have his chance to come again. In proportion to his salary,
the President's subscription is about the same as that of the
clerk or the mechanic who buys a $50 or $ 1 00 bond. He could
hardly do less; and nobody will expect him to do more.
WASHINGTON. June 19. Retail
food prices In the United States

In
BOULDER. Colo, June I Need of
aattstance from America In the fight
agalnat tuberculosis In the French
army, was set forth by Dr. Llvlns-
ton Farrand, president of the l'nl
veraity of Colorado and director of
the mlaalon to be sent to France by
the Rockefeller Foundation. In a
statement he made before leaving for
Paris. Dr. Farrand waa 10 years eie-
cutive sorretary of tbe National asso
ciation for the study and prevention
tuberculosis-
'The French death rate from
berculosla Is, roughly, twice that
America and three time that of Kn
land, aald Dr. Farrand. "Normally,
France has a high death rate and lo
birth rate, and with the Increase
tuberculosis brought about hy the war.
It la evident that something must be
done and without delay.
"It Is estimated In reports to th
Rockefeller foundaUon that 150.000
soldiers have been discharged from the
French army because of active tuber
culosls. Nor Is this condition confined
to the army. Refugee from the oc
cupied districts of Northers France
are breaking down In large numbers
and the French prisoners returned
from Germany show a high percent
sge.
A special commission has been
created to care for tubercular soldiers.
This work la of the greatest Import
ance and must go on.
Conservative estimates Indicate
500.000 cases In the country. It
obvious that whatever preventives
measures can be laid down, an Im
mediate need is for hospital aecom
modatlona, and there la no more pa
tnetlc appeal to which wealthy Amerl
cans could respond.
The extension of Infectious dls
eases In one land In these days Is
menace to all. So you see, while we
shall b fighting the battle against
tuberculosis on the first line there In
France, we shall really be fighting
America's battle as well.
The fundamental Idea behind the
Rockefeller foundation In going Into
this work Is not one of relief. It Is
ish to co-operate in working out
system for tbe prevention of tuber
culosls and tbe development of public
health In general. We are going to
France to place at ber disposal such
experience as wo have bad in the
United States."

Charging that John II. Gibson trans

to collect on a $50,000 note signed by
him for the purpose of saving the prop
erty, W. L. Archambeau filed suit In
the circuit court Saturday to collect
$7,161.50 which he claims Is still due.
The case dates back to May, 1912,
when Archambeau loaned the Grand
Avenue Realty company, of Portland,
$50,000 on a promissory note of three
years. Suit was riled to collect on
this note August 24, 1916 and Decem

ruary 8, 1917, failed by $7161.60 to
bring enough to cover the mortgage.

of the property from Oibson to 7
wife was made August 29, as a gift,
and that It was done simply to de
fraud the plaintiff.
