PORTLAND, April 28. Retirement
of 8. B. Huston from the Senatorial
race In the Republican primaries I
viewed with satisfaction by the sup
porter of R. N. Stanfleld and with
concern by th,s managers of C. L. Mc
Nary Thl brings the contest in the
Republican primaries to an Issue be
tween Stanfleld and McNary.
Huston" rapport was almost ex
clusively In Western Oregon, partic
ularly In the Willamette Valley, where
McNary' strength is greatest. The
Huston vote did not want McNary.
With Huston out of the race, much of
the Huston vote will naturally gravit
ate to Stanfleld. This Is the construc
tion placed on the action of Huston
by the men who make a close study
of political causes and effects.
Another thing: with Huston out,
Multnomah County has no favorite
on to support and can make its
choice between Eastern and Western
Oregon's candidates. Multnomah
County ha had candidates for the
Senate for many years. Multnomah
County is considered the battle-line
behind Stanfleld, it makes the latter
harder than ever for McNary to da-
feat
Many Republicans who believe In
party organization are determined to
stand solidly behind Stanfleld. They
say that West does not expect Mc
Nary to be victorious in the primar
ies and for that reason West himself
entered the race for the Democratic
senatorial nomination. It was be
cause be saw Stanfleld making such
gains thft West became a candidate
under the impression that he can
possibly defeat Stanfleld in the finals.
Stanfleld la a two-fisted fighter and
has a clean record and his friends
view with pleasure the coming cam
paign against West, if West should
racceed in winning the Democratic
nomination from Will R. King. So
confident are the Stanfleld people that
they are already planning their Nov
ember campaign.

Where doe America atand In this
theory of a "chosen people"? America
denies that theory; she dan tee that
God has chosen any one people as
His own; she asserts rather that there
are many civilizations, each with Its
own merits and defects, and that to
each must be left the working out of
It own problems.'
We Americans are unable to under
stand, or sympathize with, a people
who conceive of themselves as a chosen
people, chosen of God a people to
whom all things and actions, however
Inhuman or brutal, are regarded as
permissible, even holy, because of a
faith In their superior mission and
civilization. To ui euch a belief U
direct evidence, not of a leading, but
of a lagging civilization.
This German Ideal, when expressed
merely In theory, even though taught
in Germany for the last thirty years,
tlrred but Indifferent Interest In other
European nations. In this war Ger
many has revealed In the application
of ber theory a lust for world power
at the expense of other peoples, a lack
of good faith, a brutality that have
tamped her theory as Involving a re
turn to barbarism.
By the application of German theory
fwe were forced, unwillingly, to go to
war. But today we know that there
was no escape from a war between two
contradictory Ideals. Germany's eco
nomlo objects are many and large
(they will be pointed out), but the basic
cause of this war waa the German Ideal
f a dominant nation. That Ideal.
