The Tourist's Northwest, by Kuth Kedzle
Wood, F. R. G. S. Illustrated. $1.75. Dodd,
Mead & Co., New York City.
The reading and touring public is
placed under a debt of gratitude for
the wealth of valuable information
stored In compact form within the
covers of this enterprising book of
628 pages. Our author is a specialist in
writing guidebooks and in that line
has had many successes to her credit.
Here is another.
"The Tourists' Northwest" tells in
graphic language what natural and
industrial beauties the tourist may ex
pect to see in the Columbia River re
gion, the Cascades, this city, Tacoma,
Seattle, the National Glacier Park, and,
in fact, all points of interest in the
states of Oregon, Washington and Ida
ho. Canada, the picturesque the Rock
ies, the Selkirks, Vancouver Island, B.
C and the whole Canadian Northwest.
Railroad and steamship routes, hotels,
best itineraries, etc., are discussed in
concrete and understandable form. The
Information is up to date, and the book
is written after a tour of investigation
Just completed. The Illustrations are
many and attractive, one of them being
a picture of this city as viewed from
Washington Park.

This appreciation of this city is well
worth noting:
"A city without a shabby quarter, an
alley or a blighting street is Portland
the most intrinsically satisfying mu
nicipal fabric in the Pacific Northwest.
Other cities are fair in part; Portland
is wholly fair, wholly sane and charm
ing. The civic house is so well ordered
that development is unrestricted by
political considerations. The city's site
and prospect are nowhere surpassed.
Its streets, business and residential,
form an immaculate procession from
river to highlands; and gardens dis
played on its terraces and planted be
tween curbs and sidewalk make the
landscape beautiful all the year with
greenery and flowers.
Portland is the 20th-century f ulfill
tnent of a comparatively old civiliza
tion. Settlers chose its site three
quarters of a century ago. Though its
extraordinary growth as to size and
population in a matter of recent years,
it was in its earliest days the chief
port of the first American colony on
the Pacific Coast. The farms of the
Willamette Valley responded abundant
ly to the invitation of the settler's hoe,
so that the peridd of hardship attend
ant upon the taming of a virgin dis
trict was of short, duration. Soil and
climate were the beneficent influences
which gentled the pioneers' labors.
With granaries brimming and minds at
peace, there was repose for the plan
ning of institutions calculated to in
crease the culture of the frontier com
munity. No one willing to exert his
energies was poor; almost from the be
ginning the homes built in cleared
fields were above the average in com
fort. So Portland, at the gate of this
valley of contentment, rose upon a
prosperous foundation. Its first fami
lies are' not newly rich, but are de
scended from a well-to-do and conser
vative ancestry. Movements, social, edu
cational and commercial, are based upon
a ripe precedent, and we see in culmina-
to the highest plane of efficiency a
very paragon of a city, comely, opulent,
clean, temperate and industrious."
An eloquent chapter is that devoted
to a description of the Columbia High
way, and appreciative reference is made
in this connection to the work of Sam
uel Hill. Snmuel C. Lancaster, John
Teon and Simon Benson.
Sv ars for Old. py John Tiaynes Holmes.
Ti.oo. Doati, Aiead & Co.. .ew xork city.
War captains and the Kings and Em
perors have the field just now. Their
cry is for force to restore order or to
annex territory, forcibly.
It is just as well in this tumult to
listen to the other side, the side of
reason, conciliation, peace. Mr. Holmes
is minister of the Church of the Mes
siah. New York City, and in this, his
book of 369 pages, he gives in cour
ageous, sensible fashion his views on
pacifism. He argues from the view
point of radical pacifism and states the
terms of force versus non-resistance,
with special reference to the facts and
problems of the great war. His expo
sition of the pacifist proposals come
from the spotlight of expediency, hu
man nature and religion. He preaches
the appeal of love and international
brotherhood in settling the disputes of
individuals and nations.
The dedication of the book is "to my
dear friends and honored colleagues,
Stephen S. Wise (formerly of this city)
and Frank Oliver Hall, the one a rabbi
who perpetuates the prophetic tradition
of Israel, the other a minister who per
petuates the apostolic tradition of
Christianity both wise teachers and
brave exemplars of the religion of
brotherhood.
The chapter heads: A statement of
the problem; the logic of force; the
fallacies of force; the meaning of. non
resistance; exemplars of non-resist-
nce, ancient and modern; the practica
bility of non-resistance; is war ever
Justifiable?; is permanent and univer
sal peace to be desired?: and, the duty
and opportunity of America today.
As one of the terrible advocates of
force tne notorious and bloodiness
Nietzsche is thus quoted: "What is good
all that increases the feeling of
power, the will for power, power itself
in man. V hat is bad? all that pro-
ness? the feeling that power increases
and that resistance is overcome. Not
contentedness but power not peace
but war not virtue but capacity this
is the rule of life. The weak shall per
ish. and people shall help them to do
so this is the first principle of char
ity. What is the worst of crimes?
sympathy for the weak and unfortu
nate Christianity ! in this connection
it is well to remember that the man
kvho wrote these words, Nietzsche, was
7 r
well as Tor Ms goodness," to
bbeuthe commandment,
inou snavc
unhappy in his private life and that
latterly he died bereft of reason.
Mr. Holmes argues in this fashion:
"At bottom, the doctrine of force is a
summons to battle. It agrees that the
life-process is an uninterrupted strug
gle for survival between contending or
ganisms. It agrees as well that this
struggle began upon the plane of physi
cal energy, and that the weapons of
the flesh have ever played a potent
part in the determination of victory.
It denies, however, that the battle for
existence was ever at any time limited
to the physical plane, insists that it
has again and again been lifted to
higher levels, and points out that otner
weapons than those of the flesh have
long since proven their superiority.
Nothing is so impressive, for example,
in the modern study of evolution as
the gradual supplanting of the struggle
for self-preservation by wnat Drum
mond terms 'the struggle for the life
of others.' "
It is argued that the lion and the
bear as individual fighters are losing
out, and that the wolves in packs are
winners In the struggle of the forest
or jungle. Mr. Holbes thinks that
physical force is for' some reason or
other ehowing itself to be a failure in
the struggle for survival. "The whole
story of humanity becomes an exciting
romance of the persistent endeavor of
the race to rid Itself of force and pos
sess itself of love, as the one all-sufficient
weapon of advance. History
teaches ue that man strengthens his
hold on life, rises in the scale of ex
istence, wins peace, security, and hap
piness for his reward, just to the ex
tent that he succeeds in this one su
preme endeavor of the soul."
You can win your enemy by loving
him, rather than by lighting with him,
argues our author. "Is war ever jus
tifiable? No, war is never justifiable
under any circumstances. Every argu
ment for war is sophistry, and every
act in war a crime," asserts Mr. Holmes,
idealist.
"If you look upon America as a great
Ideal of the spirit,, independent of ter
ritory anid population and wealth, then
all such things as armies ansl navies
become matters of supreme indifference.
For the ppirit Is Impregnable to all the
attacks that the hand of man can bring
against it. What if the soldiers of an
other nation should occupy our terri
tory, seize our ports, capture our cities,
occupy our stronghlds, levy tribute
upon our citizens? What if Germany
came here today as she came to Bel
gium yesterday! Would she not find it
as Impossible to conquer 'the soul of
America' as she has already found It
impossible to conquer the soul of Bel
gium? No conqueror that ever lived
could destroy the sense of brotherhood
that is at the heart of our American
life: no sword that was ever forged
could smite the love of democracy
which is the impulse of our civilization.
A fre'e people wojuld still be free, even
though in chains and a valiant spirit
still survive, even the hour of death.
Nay, we will not only be conquered, but
we will ourselves be conquerors in this
higher realm of the spirit. Let our
enemies come against us with sword
and shield and trumpet, and .we will
meet tnem with our faith in brother
hood and democracy. And, behold, in
the very process of this conquest, tjiey
will themselves be conquered! America
will conquer the thousands who come
In arms against her. as she has already
conquered the millions - who have
sought her chores in peace! To all such
attacks as these, the soul of America
is impregnable.""
It is beneficial to study both sides
as to war, or peace at any price. WeJ
can then make up our minds what Is
our choice.
Abraham Lincoln: The Lawyer-Statesman,
by John T. Richards. $2 50. Illustrated.
Houghton-Mifflin Co.. Boston.
Mr. Richards shows that although
many books have been writtten esti
mating the life and craracter of Abra
ham Lincoln, it is possible even at this
late day to present appreciative, new
and interesting viewpoints of that life.
This Lincoln book is the result, evi
dently, of years of research among the
courts of record before which Mr. Lincoln-
practiced, and its style is lucM
and illumining. It is one of the cul
tured, critical books of the season.
Mr. Richards protests that his vol
ume is not a biography, but is intended
only as the presentation of the results
of an investigation into the record of
Abraham Lincoln as a lawyer, his
views upon the subjects of universal
suffrage and, the, reconstruction of iae.

Confederate state govrnments at the
close of the Civil War and his attitude
toward the judiciary, upon which mere
has been considerable misunderstand
ing in recent years.. Chapters are added
considering Mr. Lincoln as an orator.
The facts presented in this volume,
it is believed, will remove erroneous
impressions created and convince the
most skeptical that Mr. Lincoln was
one of the truly great lawyers of his
generation. The attitude of the great
President toward the Southern states
throughout the Civil War and in rela
tion to the reconstruction of state gov
ernments in them was always friendly.
He sought to aid and encourage those
states to re-estaDlisn themselves as
members of the Union. He was never
inclined to force negro suffrage upon
them, but believed that the states
should be left free to grant or with
hold the right of suffrage as each state
might determine for itself. The facts
clearly prove that Mr. Lincoln was on
posed to the system which has becom
known as "carbetbag government,'
but believed that the loyal white citl
zens of every state should be allowed
to control its political affairs. It has
been said that he favored woman's suf
frage also, but there is not sufficient
evidence to warrant this conclusion."
The latter sentence has reference
probably to what Mr. Lincoln said in
me year i5i, wnen he was 23 years
of age: "I go for all sharing the privi
leges of government who assist in bear
ing the burdens. Consequently I go
for "admitting all whites to the right
of suffrage who pay taxes or bear
arms (by no means excluding fe
males)" p. 103. Had Mr. Lincoln ta.-
vored woman's suffrage. Mr. Richards
thinks, "it is not likely that he would
nave failed to give expression later in
iiie to a desire to bring it about."

by Albert Nelson Marquis. $5. A. N.
juurquis Ac CO.. cmcago. 111.
As welcome as "the flower that
blooms in the Spring."
In a newspaper office, especially, this
Dook is so useful as a book of swift
reference that "something just as
good" doesn't exist. There's only one
"Whoa Who." The book is a bio
graphical dictionary of notable living
men ana women in the United States,
the addresses of each person being
particularly valuable feature. Truly,
the book possesses not only the best
attriDutes or a biographical dictionary,
but it is also a handy directory of
those living people in America in
whom almost everybody Is interested.
The page giving the qualifications for
admission to this book is highly in
structive.
In its evolution "Who's Who" tells
story of great progress. Starting with
827 pages, the book -has grown to 3024.
In the first volume there are 8602
biographies, and the present volume
contains 21.923, 25S9 of which have ap.
peared In no previous edition.
Mr. Marquis shows wise judgment In
his selection of material.

Breathe and Be Well, by William Lee How
ard. 11. D. $1. Edward J. Clode, New
York City.
If you want to be In good health
and remain so. you can get valuable
help by watching a horse that it not
in harness. Dr. Howard says so, and
proceeds: "I learned the first prin
clples of the art of breathing from i
pet horse. He is now a pensioner liv
ing on the best,- and getting, with me.
the country air. He is nearly 30 years
old, but. with the exception of failing
sight, is as lithe, handsome and full
muscled as a youngster."
Ir. Howard's book is a real friend,
in print. His advice, if followed, will
make a person be healthy arid live
longer. "Poor health, in destination, to
disease, is aisaoat Invariably, due to
lack of understanding that the body Is
a machine which must have proper fuel
for combustion, and its boilers, pipes
and exhausts must always be kept
clean that oxygen must be supplied
in sufficient quantity, must burn up
waste material every living minute, as
well as supply energy and new living
stuff. The secret is In knowing how
to enlarge the combustion chambers
and control intake and outgo."
Dr. Howard shows how perfect
health may be helped by a simple sys
tem of exercising and in breathing
properly. He promises physical and
mental fitness.
Contents: General observations upon
health; the morning fresh air cocktail
the nightcap how to breathe them in;
the little things that prevent proper
breathing; snoring the causes and
cures; breathing for beauty breathing
and eating; breathing through the skin
necessary for health; new tissue for
old rejuvenating the body and the
skin; "some simple breathing exercises.
The Single Tax Movement In the I'nlted
Malts, by Artnur lcnois louns.
Princeton University Press, Princeton, N. J.
Oregon people are familiar with the
single tax. They rejected it at the
polls.
Our author, who is instructor In eco
nomics and social institutions in
Princeton University, says that more
than a generation has elapsed since
Henry George published Progress and
Poverty" and that hardly any effort has
been made to describe the single tax
movoment or to appraise its signifi
cance.
The book is an historical one and is
a record of facts in the case, without
being controversial. It is informing
and pleasant to read. Much time and
care have been expended in gathering
this data and placing it in book form. .

ENCYCLOPEDIA IS FOUND
VALUED ASSET TO HOME
Don't Be Like Men Who Failed to See the Opportunity of tbe Telephone
but Be Optimistic, Suggests Dr. Williams.
BY DR. H. 8. WILLIAMS.
Editor of "The Historians' History of
the World."
EX-SENATOR DEPEW Is fond of
telling the story of how he was
approached, while president of
the New York Central road, by men
who tried to induce him to buy some
stock: in & new company for the ex
ploitation of a recently invented device
called the telephone.
He consulted the president of a hig
telegraph company and was told that
the telephone could never be anything
but a scientific toy; it had no com
mercial possibilities.
Not unnaturally he accepted this
authoritative verdict as final, an J did
not lend his Influence to the prospec
tive telephone company.
That was SO years ago. Today, as
everyone knows, the telephone indus
try is one of the greatest - industries
in the world, and telegraph companies
are minor affairs compared with this
colossal infant. And that such is the
case is not solely due to the telephone
itself, but largely to the fact that
there are individuals who did not suf
fer from the atrophied imagination
that characterized the telegraph offi
cial who misinformed Mr.. Depew, but
who were able to see the possibilities
in the new instrument before these
possibilities had become realities. Peo
ple, that is to say, with the rare value
of mind called foresight, occupying a
portion of that quarter of tbe brain
which with the average individual is
given over exclusively to the- harbor
ing of hindsight.
AVhat is true of the telephone is true
in greater or less measure of at least
half a dozen inventions' of our day and
generation whicli have gone begging
because people in general, and capital
ists in particular, could not see the
commercial possibilities that seeming
ly should have been obvious enough to
anyone with the faintest trace of
Imagination. The automobile, the
aeroplane, the submarine boat, and the
wireless telegraph are cases in point.
Majority Are Lookinc Backward.
The man in the street is likely to
feel that he would have recognized
these opportunities had they come his
way and had he been fortunate enough
to be provided with capital with which
to back them. But in point of fact
there is nothing in experience of said
man in the street to Justify this self
flattering estimate. For we find the
average man constantly dickering in
Wall street stocks, and habitually buy
ing the stock that is about to fall in
price, and selling Just before a rise.
Anyone with a thousand dollars to
risk last year might have made a for
tune in Bethlehem steel, for example.
Countless people had the thousand and
were risking it; but what proportion
of these backed the right stock and
made the fortune? The average man
felt that the big war In Europe must
presently smash everything to pieces
over here, and the man who was wise
enough to predict that metal com
panies must reap a fortune out of tbe
war was the rare exception.
But this illustration after all only
serves to give emphasis to the familiar
fact that opportunities are about us
everywhere and all the time; and that
the onlY thing that prevents us from
taklncr advantage of them is our lack
of capacity to see A little way into
the future. Not merely in the stock
market, but in the real estate field
and in any one of a dozen industries,
fortunes could be made from month
to month if we could only gauge thoJ
trend of social and economic progress
correctly.
Considered Belief In "Lock."
The great difficulty with most of us
is that we are like the knight who
went in searchof the Holy Grail
we are forever looking outward into
the intricate highways of the body
politic, instead of searching in the cas
tle of our own minds.
We entertain a superstitious belief
In "luck," and are content to keep on
guessing, deluded always with the
hope that, ultimately we must guess
right, without endeavoring to improve
the quality of our guessing mechanism.
The man who is fully and convincedly
aware that in the lust analysis there
is no such thing as luck, and that in
the end success comes to him who
founds his "guesses'" upon concrete
knowledge, is a rare and exceptional
Individual.
So it chances that a thousand men
will rush eagerly after a chance to
secure a supposed "tip" on the market,
where, one will delve patiently after
the knowledge that makes the "tip"
unnecessary. It is characteristic of
our generation, particularly in Ameri
ca, to seek the air route to prosperity,
scorning the path that is laid along
Arm, old-fashioned terra flrma. ' Yet
nine out of ten men that attain success
have chosen the safe route instead of
the spectacular one. . .
A big Chicago mail-order house,
which has attained amazing success in
its attempt to furnish its clientele with
every purchasable commodity, recently
decided to include intellectual wares
amosg its household furnishings, and
put its decision into execution by of
fering a famous set of reference books,
confessedly the best of its kind, in a
compact edition and selling it at about
one-third the regular price of .this
standard work.
College Education found in Books.
Nobody doubts that the claim made
by educators that half an hour a day
devoted to the perusal of this work
would presently give anyone something
like the equivalent of a celloge edu
cation. Nobody doubts that the information
that could thus be acquired would give
the average man distinct advantage
over his business competitors in any
one of a hundred fields.
Nobody doubts that the opportunity
to secure this work at a fraction of
the original cost constitutes a mone
tary saving that for the average man
is distinctly significant..
Yet all that we know of the lack of
imagination or the average individual,
his incapacity to take advantage of op
portunity, justifies the belief that not
one man in 10 of those who recognize
the value of the intellectual and fin
ancial bargain thus offered will take
advantage of that bargain.
The publfshers of the book have
frankly stated that the price must be
markedly advanced when this edition
is exhausted, owing to the. advance in
price of paper and other book-making
material, which advance, as everyone
associated with this line of business
knows, has been .startling within the
past months Yet the inhibition that
hampers the average mind will un
doubtedly prevent nine out of 10 of the
men who have decided to buy the book
from acting on their decision until it
is :oo late to take advantage of the
bargain price.
The 'only individuals who can be de
pended npon to act promptly in taking
advantage of a bnrgaih sale are
women, and the bargains in question
are invariably those that have to do
with personal adornment of tbe exter
ior of the body. The adornment of the
Interior of the head is a matter of
scant significance in comparison.
Right Kind of Investment Cited.
All of which goes to prove nothing
in particular, except that man is not
a very -.ighly evolved animal at the
present stage of his development; and
that a business firm which hopes to put
even the Encyclopedia Britannica on a
par with household commodities and
such like necessities has shown a very
optimistic spirit and placed a flattering
estimate, ustou the desira ot, tha Amuri.-
can public to Improve Its mind. It !
sincerely to be hoped that this estl
mate may be Justified, but it is opea
to certain doubts. -
The man who invests in intellectual
stocks Is making the surest of all in
vestments. Ho is in the position of tha
man of 30 years ago, .who backed tha
telephone. Bui unfortunately, he ia
more than likely to have some neigh
bor who will give him the kind of ad
vice that the telephone official gave to
Mr. Depew. with the result that he.
will throw his money into Wall Street'a
whirlpool or use it to pay an Instal
ment on an automobile that he cannot
afford to own, instead of investing it
safely and wisely In the encyclopedia.
Bt why worry over that? Why be,
a pessimist? Why not rather consider
the matter from the other point of
view, and reflect that such lack oC
foresight "on the part of the average,
man limits the competition and thus
gives enhanced opportunity for the ex
ceptional individual who has the fore,
sight to value brain development be
fore pleasure of the moment, and so
makes the intellectual investment?
Why worry about the fellow that re.
fuses to buy telephone stocks?
Why not rather reflect on the "luck""
of the fellow who was wise enough)
to buy them?
