This argument is frequently used to bolster up the contention that nations grow more' pacific as their na tional debt Increase. Examples are cited from history to prove that the tendency to wage war diminishes as the burdens Incident to carrying on mili tary operations Increase, and the peo ple are constantly reminded of the Pen alties attached to transgressions against the rules of peace. It Is predicted 1" many quarters that the Increase In the national debt of England will have n tendency to recall that country from the fields of military activity and give a more peaceful aspect to her opera tions abroad. Debts seldom serve to render existence more delightful ir In dividual Instances, and If the load of taxes bearing down upon a nation will be reason to entertain fear of a very dull summer.

"An Astoria Justice has annulled the Proebstel nlckel-tn-the-slot law. Better let the supreme court take a band In It." Albany Democrat. SAME HERE.

The Dalles Chronicle. A Jury of six men In a Justice court In Astoria has decided that the nlekel- ln-the-slot machine law is a dead let ter. There was no question, whatever, as to the defendant's guilt. In fact It was admitted by both sides, yet on the first ballot four of the alx Jurors vot ed for acquittal, one voted blank and the sixth man voted for conviction. These Intelligent and patriotic Ameri can Jurors and fe'.low-cltlzens finally ar rived at the conclusion that the con viction of the defendant meant the closing of all the gambling places in Astoria, and as this would be an aw ful calamity they voted for his acquit, tal. So the operation of the machines will proceed f all the same as if the ProebsteJ law new had a being. A PECULIAR DECISION. Eugene Register. Down In Astoria a Jury has declared In favor of the nickel-in-the-siot ma chines. The findings of the Jury are at least peculiar. They do not question the validity of the Proebstel law pro hibiting the machines. They go out side the law and base their decision on the grounds that it might prohibit gambling and eventually close up the saloons. So far as gambling is con cerned the law might have that effect, but as for closing the saloons, that Is altogether Improbable. If Astoria bas es its growth and prosperity on gamb ling It is not entitled to grow nor maintain any sort of popular standing with other Oregon towns. The case should be carried up and made a test case in order that the people of Oregon for congratulation. War, It appears, is not only as the late General Sherman described It. but It Is exceedingly costly as well. France is given as an illustrious ex ampleof the Influence of a huge nat tlonal debt upon a war-like spirit. In the magnitude of her public debt France stands at the head of all other nations. In round numbers she owes J6.000.000. 000. This Is supposed to have a ten dency to keep the nation In a peaceful mood and cause the statesmen of tht country to think twice before engaging in any enterprise demanding heavy ex penditures. The debt of France has been taken up by the wealthy people of the nation and !n the event of disaster crowing out of international troubles. financial loss would fall heaviest upon the peopie at home. For this reason the holders of national bonds in Fran.' comprise a formidable peace party, that will stand firmly against whatever tends to increase the national debt to imperil their securities. England has a national debt at pres ent of 13.196.000.000. This will be in creased 5300,OOO.0O0 as soon as the war loan recently voted ean be made.
