FURTHERPROOFOF
SCHENECTADY, N. Y- June 10.
"Prusslanism and the Idea of endur
ing peace among nation can never be
brought into harmony; compromise
cannot even be considered,' Robert
Lansing, secretary ot slate, declared
here today in aa address as honorary
chancellor of Union college for 1918.
Instance after Instance from his own
experiences at the head of America's
foreign office waa cited to prove his
point because, he asserted. "Ameri
cans, even those Intellectually
equipped, have but vague Ideas ot the
attitude which made Prusslanism pos
sible." "It is a fact not generally known,"
said Secretary Lansing, "that within
six weeks after the Imperial govern
ment had, in the case ot the Sussex,
given this government its solemn
promise that it would cease ruthless
slaughter upon the high seas. Count
Bernstroff, appreciating the worth
les&ness ot the promise, asked the
Berlin foreign office to advise him in
ample time before the campaign of
submarine murder was renewed, in
order that he might notify the Ger
man merchant ships in American
ports to destroy their machinery, be
cause he anticipated that the renewal
of that method of warfare would. In
all probability, bring the United
States into the war.
The causes of the war, Mr. Lansing
said, were simply the German desire
for world dominion.
That was and is the central
thought of Prusslanism," he said. "It
excited the cupidity of the governing
and weaafeby classes of the empire; it
dazzled with 1U anticipated glories
and by its promise ot a boasted racial
superiority the German millions who
were to be the instrument of achieve
ment. With a devotion and zeal
worthy of better cause, they turned
their energy into those channels
which would aid the ruling class.
"We must go on with the war.
There is no other way. This task
must not be left half done. We must
not transmit to posterity a legacy of
blood and misery. We may In this
great conflict go down into the valley
of shadows because our foe Is power
ful and inured to war. We must be
prepared to meet disappointment and
temporary reverse, but we must with
American spirit rise above them; with
courageous hearts we must go for
ward until this war Is won."

L
BAKER. Or., June 8. When the
moon this afternoon on schedule time
darkened the face ot the sun for a
period of one minute and 53 seconds
persons in the path ot totality ot the
eclipse enjoyed or suffered all the
many thrills and sensations which
tradition connects with the heavenly
spectacle. In the wierd darkness of
mid-afternoon, observers marveled
feared or experienced a combination
of emotions indescribable, as the phe
monenon affected them.
Despite knowledge that nature was
merely doing the expected and looked
for, it was impossible to throw off a
feeling that it was a solemn occasion,
that the wierd darkening ot the sun
was the working ot a supernatural
power and that the end of time had
come. It was overpowering and awe
inspiring; it was an experience none
privileged to pass through will ever
forget.
Expectant and eager only to see the
spectacle, previous to the passing,
people were excited and talkative. As
the sun's light began to darken and
birds sought their nests and chickens
their roosts and the chill of twilight
descended, the feeling changed, con
versation ceased and all felt the In
fluence of the Impending demonstra
tion of nature as something of grave
portent of mysterious meaning.
The nerves tightened and expect
ancy rose, yet with all, there was
feeling of awe as if disaster was at
hand and aa stars began to twinkle In
mid-afternoon it was fearsome.
Then as the moon's face began al
most completely to cover the sun's
surface, the tense feeling seemed to
relax. The wonderfully beautiful so
lar corona began to appear and as its
pearly light radiated from behind the
dark shadow or the moon, an over
powering feeling of witnessing a di
vine revelation took hold of one. Its
T 1 l,n,18 colors' ra.olf,T?

was a marvelous spectacle and a sight
which burned its details into the mind
of an observer never to be forgotten
and, to the ordinary person, almost
indescribable.

BLACK WALNUT
TREES VALUABLE
FOR GREAT AGE
In the matter of the damage suit
of the Ganong estate versus the State
Highway Commission, novel evidence
was introduced at a recent session of
the tribunal. This was a cross section
of a three foot black walnut tree, for
the destruction of which the Highway
Commission in held as liable by the
estate tnistees. It Is maintained by
those familiar with the case that the
loss of the trees Is a decided set-back
as a black walnut tree of the dlmen
tlons of these magnificent growths, is
the product of a life-time. It Is said
that there is no comparison between
a black walnut tree and a maple, as
regards value due to the great length
of time required for maturity.

This Formula Said
To Be Effective
On Plant Bugs
As many farmers of Clackamas
county, as well as local peoplo, are
complaining ot worms destroying the
cabbage plants. Mrs. Harry Wilson, of
Gladstone, Is offering a formula for
destroying the pests. This Is made by
using a teaspoonful of salt peter, dis
solved In a gallon of water. Sprinkle
this on and around the plants, and It
will readily kill the worms eating
these plants.
Mrs. Wilson has also found a way
to prepare rolled oats that will be
greatly appreciated by the house
wives, who are using the same, To
soak the rolled oats in water over
night will soften them, and requires
less cooking, and when cooked are
much more palatable than If not soak
ed.
