MONTENEGRO'S Because of his
LESSON TO US failure in his war
against Turkey,
Nicholas of Montenegro finds that his
throne is shaking. Montnegro invad
'; ed Turkey two or three days before
: Sria, Bulgaria or Greece moved.
For about a week the Montegrins ap
peared to be winning. This was the
story sent out from Cettinje, its cap
ital, to the world, and the world ap
plauded. Nicholas and his sons were
with their army, and their pictures
were published in the big newspapers
of two continents. When they reach
ed the Scutari district, however, they
halted, and they are halted still. That
region, which is on the Adriatic, was
the objective of their campaign. They
needed it as an outlet on that sea, but
they have failed to get it, and Nich
olas has fallen into discredit.
.Nicholas failure is not the fault
of his soldiers but of his system. The
" men of the Black Mountains are
among the fiercest fighters in Eu
rope. The smallest of the Balkan
states, the trained army of, the coun
try is smaller in proportion to popu
lation than is that of any of its neigh
bors. The men who are instructed
in modern methods of fighting are
comparatively few.
In its military scheme the United
States proceeds on the Montegrin
theory. While the law permits the
entisted strength of the army to reach
100,000 men, which is an absurdly
small number for a nation of 110,000,
000 people, including its dependencies
its actual enlisted force is less than
77,000. These soldiers are as well
trained as any in the world, but they
are too few to be effective in a con
flct with any great power, such as
may come at any time without warn
ing. According to the testimony of
regular army officers, nearly all of
the country's 120,000 militia would be
a poor reliance for a second line of
defense except after, six or eight
months additional training, and in a
war today this much time would not
be permitted; Our standing army is
smaller than that of Roumania, which
Standards Must Be Set'
Before All Food Is Pure
By Dr. CARL L. ALSBERG, Government Chief Chemist
BKI.TEVE that most manufacturers and handlers of foodstuffs
X
want to do the right thing, but most of tliem tK)X'T KNOW
EXACTLY WHAT IS THE RIGHT THING.
The whole subject of food inspection and the demand for
pure food? is new. When the bureau of chemistry was established
there were no standards, no guides of any sojt. Everything had U
be worked out. and it has been slow work. Only a few things defi
nitely have been determined for this analysis of foods. To establish
standards is not the work of days. BUT OF TEARS.
WHEN WE ARRIVE AT WHAT IS THE STANDARD THEN WE
MUST SHOW THE MANUFACTURER HOW TO BRING HIS PRODUCTS
UP TO THE STANDARD.

OREGON CITY IS There is every
FINE HOME TOWN reason to be
lieve that more
persons who have business in Port
land will come to this city this year
to live than ever before in one year.
There is no reason why thousands of
persons who have their business in
terests in Portland should not live
in this city and many reasons why
they should. The streetcar facilities
have been somewhat improved and the
fare between the cities probably will
be reduced. It is a fact that per
sons having business in Portland
could live in this city and save mon
ey. In the east there are hundreds
of thousands of commuters, and with
the population of Portland constantly
growing, there is no argument against
Oregon City obtaining a big per cen
tage of the overflow The fact is,
Oregon City will get most of it and
it should.. The Portland Railway,
Light & Power Company can do much
to increase the population of this
city, and we believe that it should do
all in its power to induce persons
wishing to get away from a ig city
to come to this municipality. The
question is a big one, and one the
Live Wires should consider. Another
suggestion for Main Trunk Cross.

greater importance. .
