la Follette's Crime
Against Dis Country
William Phillip Slmms, eminent
newspaper correspondent, writing
from Berne, Switzerland, under date
of February 15, ha3 this to say ofj
criminal propaganda disseminated Dy
pro-Germans in this country and its
effect In Europe: .
"The Prussian war party is belit
tling Americans to the utmost In
Austria as well as in Germany.
"American newspapers printing La
Follette's Lusitania speech are hand
ed about until they are black and
worn out.
"A picture of a feathered Indian,
probably a medicine show man, sur
rounded by gaping boys, Is published
In all illustrated papers, entitled Re
cruiting in America.'
"The wildest stories of American
regiments mutinying are published
broadcast. The stories say the Amer
ican soldiers are refusing to fight for
England and France.
"Both Archibald and Sumter the
latter's folks are from Detroit con
stantly hearing the talk of the rich-.
est and sportiest circles, say nothing
will be left undone to egg the masses
on to further sacrifices.
"They believe the smashing of Ger
many and Austria will follow the
failure of the drive on the west front
Into which they 'are plunging. The
popular dislike for the Germans will
prevent Austro-Hungarlans from con
tinuing in Prussia's train much long
er. The sick, starving, dying popu
lation will rebel. Especially as It Is
understood that officialdom from the
emperor down less secretly than
one might think have the same dis
taste for continuing the war."
i From IheTrenchesl
O Death! At home they call it
death
And sit and weep because they think
Their sons beloved are slain,
And they are left alone
To mourn their dead.
While we, across the trenches' top.
Have leaped to Life, and find
We have but left behind
The rags and blood and dirt
Of grimy battlefield, and
A great host of us.
All eager, happy and alive
Are pressing onward towards a goal
We dimly see, of duty, beauty,
Love and Life, which calls us on
To tasks more glorious than
We could achieve amidst stress
And storm and reek of cannon Bmoke.
Hark! You can hear us calling
From each to each a greeting
As. we meet comrades and erst
while foey
"Friends! Is this all to death?
Why should we ever fear
This passing through a shadow
Which but seems a moment's shock,
As though we had but bowed our
heads
To pass beneath a narrow doorway
From some dug-out small, and found
Ourselves a little blinded by the light
Which shines from Heaven's ternal
day?
You here! You too! And you!
How glad we are to find
Each other, and to prove
There is no death!"
Mary Lloyd McC'onnell.
NO DISTINCTION
IN RESERVATIONS
The often-asked question as to the
difference between a national park
and a national monument 1b now
harder than ever to answer. Before
the passage of the national park serv
ice act a well-defined distinction was
recognized by common consent, based
upon the idea that the monument
was merely conserved with no Idea
of development, while the national
park was created with the purpose of
development. In the absence of for
mal definition, the new act, which
several times mentions both kinds of
reservations without any distinction
whatever, must be held to abolish
previous unwritten conceptions and
establish the authority for the fu
ture. '
What is left, then, of the distinc
tion Is the fact that the monuments
are generally smaller and generally
of less importance than the parks.
But, on the other hand, there is one
monument larger than all but the
largest parks', and there are several
parks as small as many of the small
est monuments. Furthermore, the
Grand Canyon of the Colorado,
which is a national monument, Is at
least equal in importance to any na
tional park and of more Importance
than many.

Brutish Eyes In
Dindenburg's Dead
The following description of Hln-
denburg is taken from J. M. Beau
fort in "Behind the German Veil",
and can well be believed to be a
faithful picture of this German
brute:
Hindenburg stands more than six
feet high. His whole personality
radiates strength brute animal
strength. He was, when I met him,
(9 years of age, but looked much
younger. His hair and mustache
were still pepper and salt color. His
face and forehead are deeply fur
rowed, which adds to his forbidding
appearance.
His nose and chin are prominent,
but the most striking feature of the
man's appearance is his eyes. They
are steel blue and very small, much
too small for his head, which In turn
is too small compared to his body.
But what the eyes lack In size they
fully make up for In intensity and
penetrating powers. Until I met Hin
denburg, I always thought that the
eyes of the Mexican rebel Villa wero
the worst and most cruel I had ever
seen. They are gold compared with
those of Hindenburg; never In my
life have I seen such hard, cruel ut
terly brutal eyes as those of Hinden
burg. MYRTLE ( KEEK CASE
ATTRACTS INTEREST
A question that may be of consld
erable interest to many persons In
the1 county or state is Involved In
the application of Mrs. Mabel Hodg
son of Myrtle Creek, for registration
under the laws of the state, qualify
ing her for the right of franchise,
the application being made before
County Clerk Edward Lenox, recent
ly. Mrs. Hodgson was refused the
privilege of registration on the
ground that through marriage to a
British subject she lost her citizen
ship. Mr. Lenox construed the law
of 1907 as covering the case, but
through her attorney, Albert Abra
ham, Mrs. Hodgson took exception to
the ruling, and a statement of the
matter was placed before Clerk
Lenox, who courteously consented to
place the matter before Attorney
General George M. Brown for a de
cision covering the meaning and In
tent of the law.
Mrs Hodgson contends that since
she was married to the BrltlBh sub
ject before the law of 1907 was enacted,-its
provisions do not apply to
her. t The matter will be watched
with considerable Interest, as there
are doubtless many other women in
the state who are similarly situated,
and who will be deprived of the right
of ballot if County Clerk Lenox's rul
ing is upheld,
STREAMS CLOSED TO
FISHING FOR YEAR
At the regular monthly meeting of
the state fish and game commission
held at Portland last week a new sys
tem of fish protection was inaugu
rated by closing the following
streams to all fishing, so as to give
a chance for restocking and propaga
tion: Squaw creek, between upper and
lower Squaw lakes.
Carberry creek, one of the branch
es of the Big Applegate, from Us
Junction with the Applegate to Its
source, Including branches.
Four Bit Creek, one of the
branches of Big Butte creeit, from Its
Junction with the south fork of Big
Butte to Its source, Including
branches.
Middle Fork of Rogue river, one
of the three princlpnl branches of the
Rogue, from its Junction with the
south Fork to its source, including
tributary branches.
This plan is to keep these streams
closed for a two-year period, during
which all fishing will be prohlbted,
and the streams restocked. At the
end of the closed period these
streams will be opened and another
branch of east of the Applegate, Big
Butte and Rogue will be closed for
similar period and restocked. By
this plan, one headwaters fork of
each Important trout stream In the
county will always be closed and re
stocked, thus Insuring protection for
young fish and a constant supply of
fish to feed the main streams.
Another yeaf, branches of other
main streams will be closed for re
stocking, as the supply of trout
hatched Increases, there always re
maining two forks open for every one
closed.
Squaw creek between the two
lakes is a spawning bed for the fish
in both lakes, and the slaughter of
fish in It during the spring spawning
season is fast exterminating the fish.
Both lakes will remain open for fish
ing, but the creek will be permanent
ly closed.
Notices of- the closing of the
streams will be published and posted
and anglers are asked to co-operate
in the restocking operations by help
ing enforce the. closure.
