placing contracts for a sufficient num
ber of the new armor-piercing projec
tiles for big guns now being used by
"the Navy. The rise in price, due to the
' war, is indicated by the fact that pro
"Jectiles were bought In 1)11 at $320
each, while those contracted for in 1915
"Cost 415. Part of the increased cost,

cthells, the report said, experiments
'-'during the year have strengthened the
view that missiles of this type, but car
drying high explosives in limited quan
ties, are superior to high explosive
lehells that depend wholly upon the
-force of an outside explosion to accom
plish their mission. A French official
report was quoted to ehow that plain
shells carrying high explosives in large
qnantities were "absolutely powerless"
against armor of any importance.

Idaho is doing a landoffice business In

the records yesterday. -
This year the state, through the land
board, granted applications for loans
which total $404,270 and rejected an-
plications for loans amounting to J107,
800. It is a business equal to that
of the largest individual banking house
Since January 1, 1915. a total of 303
oans were examined and the total num
ber of applications granted during that
period was 238. The amount of loans
granted, but for which no call had been
made up to November 4, 1915, amounted
to $195,700. The records also show the
following figures:

Among Worshipers.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 8. Attempt
ing self-crucifixion, while suffering
from religious mania, a stranger who
gave his name as Thomas D. Thornton,
of -Everywhere," created a sensation
among the worshipers at St. Mary's
Cathedral here Sunday when, with a
lenpth of gaspipe, he drove a four-inch
spike through each instep and nailed
his feet to the floor.
He uttered no cry of pain and had
one spike driven home and the other
through his foot when restrained by
ushers who answered the horrified
cries of the congregation. The incident
occurred while the solemn elevation of
the host, one of the most sacred por
tions of the Roman Catholic mass, was
in progress, and the fact that the con
gregation was kneeling gave the man
the opportunity to remove his shoes un
noticed and drive in the nails before
interfered with. It was necessary to
procure a hammer to pry the spikes
loose.
Judge Mallah. of San Luis Obispo, ex
pressed the belief that it was the same
man who attempted a similar act about
a month ago in a San Luis Obispo
church.

comment on the Washington note pro
testing against Great Britain's block
ade and the method of enforcing it in
some instances . take the form of sur
prise at the firmness of its tone com
pared with the lang uage of other com
munications that have passed between
the two governments since the war be
gan.
The note is not lightly regarded ana
some of its contentions are admitted to
be entirely valid.
Momentous Character Recognised.
The i Dailv News Bays: "The new
American note is a voluminous, highly
technical and in some respects a mo
mentous document. It cannot escape
comment, moreover, that the note is
couched in vigorous and uncomprising
language, paralleled in one or two or
Secretary Lansing's notes to Germany
but hitherto foreign to communications
that nave passed between Washington
and London. No mistake ' could be
graver than to underestimate the seri
ousness of the contentions advanced by
Washington.
'In certain respects the issue can be
narrowed down from the dimensions
they assume in the note. The com
plaint, for example, that American
ships are brought into port under sus
picion and then charged with port
dues and other exactions. will. we
imagine, be recognized as reasonable
and where the facts are established the
grievance can be rectified.
Modification Deemed Improbable.
The Chronicle says: "The purport of
the whole note is not, of course, to put
a pistol to our heads, but to tell us
firmly, one might almost say harshly,
that the United States does not accept
our main contentions and does not
acquiesce in our policy and will con
tinue to press strong protests upon us.
It points to a continuance of dip
lomatic difficulties between Washing
ton and London, difficulties which we
would say frankly could not possibly
be diminished without serious modifi
cation of the American attitude with
the American Presidential election
looming up. Such modifications in def
erence to reason and argument will
undoubtedly be hard for Washington
to make and that is perhaps at least
a hopeful element in the affair."
Blame Pnt on United States.
After quoting the American argu
mente. the Daily Mail says:
our case it is a very strong one
is that the orders-m-council were in
reply to Germany's repudiation of all
international law. The power which
wickedly torpedoed neutral shins and
snips witn neutral passengers, and
which sowed the sea with mines.
showed complete indifference for those
neutral rights of which the United
States declares itself the unhesitating
cnampion. '
'We waited for the' neutrals to
act. and as they did not act. we acted
ourselves in the Interests of humanity.
j.ne aoctnnes which we aoDlied are.
in essence, those laid down by the
unnea states courts in the Civil War.'
Views Narrow, Says Times.
The Times, in an editorial, says it
magines that American iuristK nnl
diplomatists will feel that the note is
not altogether worthy the better tra
ditions of the republic, since it raises
a number of technical points of dis
puted international law. .but nowhere
raises the broad view of the larger
issues involved in the world war or
indicates the statesman's ability to
adapt old principles to novel conditions.
Justifying the British procedeure of
searching suspected vessels, and re
ferring to the complaint that no re
dress is obtainable, the Times asks:
"Did not we suffer grievously from
those and kindred injuries In the Civil
War? Do Americans forget how they
practically wiped out the whole indus
try of Lancashire and plunged its
population into dire distress? Did we
complain? Did the victims themselves
complain? No. Their sufferings were
acute, but they believed the North was
fighting in the cause of human liberty
and moral right, and therefore they
were patient.
Reciprocity Is Elxpeeted.
"Some reciprocity. It may seem to
Americans, as well as to us, might be
expected from Washington in the day
of our trial.
"Another point we cannot pass over
Is the extravagant character of the lan
guage of the note. We make allow
ances, however, for the exigencies of
American domestic politics and attrib
ute to them the choice of adjectives
and a turn of expression not usually
found in informal intercourse between
the governments of great peoples."

EDITORS TO FIGHT RATE
Country Publishers Propose to Make
Friendly Test Case.
The country editor, who since the
memory of man runneth not to th -nn-
trary, has been fighting other people's
battles, is about to fight one in his own
behalf, according to members of the
State Editorial Association, who were
in Portland Sunday" - returning from
the State Editorial Convention, which
closed Saturday in Salem..
This time the fight is to be on the
legal rate for county printing. - Coos
County officials, it Is said, attempted to
fix the rate for publishing the county
tax lists at 3 cents a line, but the Coos
editors objected on the grounds that
the regular rate throughout the state
has been 5 cents a line. -
The issue is likely to become a
friendly test case before the Supreme
Court.
SPIRITUAL NEGLECT" HIT
Pastor Says Call of Dying Will Find
Him Unwilling to Go.
"Many a person who is too busy to
see a minister when he calls on him
during his health to tell him of things
of the spirit, sends forth an immediate
call for his pastor when the end of
life draws near," asserted Rev. O. S.
Baum. "But I don't want any of my
congregation to do that, for when the
imperative call cornea, I won't want
to go." He said this during his ser
mon on ."Soul and the Woman With a
Familiar Spirit" at the Calvary Pres
byterian Church.
"There comes a time in the life of
every man when he must choose be
tween the false and , the true; when
he must swear allegiance to Jesus
Christ or to false prophets; to God or
to the 'Woman with a Familiar Spirit,'
said Rev. Mr. Baum.

WHAT IS AUTO
INTOXICATION? The best and clearest definition is "Self
Intoxication. or poisoning by compounds pro
duced internally by oneself.'
Physicians agree that 95 of all illness is
due to tins cause, brought on by accumu

waste is by an occasional Internal Bath with
simple warm water given by the "T.B L.
Cascade.
You will be astonished at your feelings
the morning after taking an Internal Bath
bv "neans of the "J.n.L. Cascade." You
will feel bright, brisk, confident and as
though everything is "working right'" and
it is.
Half a million Americans are now using
this method with resulting better health and
greater vigor. This method will be explained
to you by the Woodard Clark Co.'s Drug
istores in Portland, who will also give you a
jnost interesting book, free, on the subject

this booklet, called "Why Man of To-day Is
Only 50 Efficient," while it is on. your

on the floor as soon as tha front
wheels were in mid-air saved the ma
chine from a dive to the railroad
tracks. The rail smashed the wind
shield and caught the front of the ma
chine. The car was damaged badly.
