THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 27, 1914. ' WILL JINGOES LEAD IN ATTACK ON MEXICO IS QUERY OF MEMBER Kent Would like to Know Whether those Favoring War Care to Be Shot, (t'nlttd Pre Uu'd Wire.-) ' WyihtnKton. Keb. 27. "I have felt that the desire of many for inter vention In Mexico sranR, not from the heart or the mind, but from the Iokethoik," raid Congressman Kant, In an Jhitervlew today. "I believe It is no more than right," he continued, "to expect those in or cut of Washington who are making: the loudest clamor for sotneboly to intervene and Ret klllod, to volunteer to at fiH the front of th entering wedxe "American Intervention Klnale hand ed would be Interpretfcd in the minds of the Mexicans an iin act dictated by a selfish national Interest. In one sense it would be u. good tiling for Mexico, beciiude it would unite the fyexleans where now there U strife. "Intervention surely would result in the sacrifice of tnatiy American lives, as Innocent and as valualie as the lived of the" Americans wli liave ex patriated themselves for profit. We an never Justify it under any doc trine .of : altru Ism or as being part of 'the white man's burden.' "To my mind we should have an understanding with Brazil, Argentina, Chile and the responsible European governments to send a deputation, Jointly and severally twith us, to Mex ico City to demand that war cease and that the foundation be laid for a rfi feoonsible. reputable government. "By such action notice would be ' served on Mexico that the allies, while there to establish order, would not steal territory." FIRST 'STEAMER OF ALASKA LINE SAILS TUESDAY; VAST FIELD (Continued From Page One) FIRST STEAMER OF PORTLAND-ALASKA FLEET SAILS TUESDAY H W -i i v" : 'W' V W '' v .,KA Jl I 2 2 & ' Y I '" " si''' 'stys'sf'W itil ADVENT1STS URGED TO BE MORE EARNEST Speaker at North Pacific Conference Condemns Laughing, Joking. Type of craft similar to Thomas L. Wand and Quinault, which have been chartered for new line. need for a groat campaign to firmly establish this new venture, he said: Propcta Ars Splendid. "We now have the Alaska steamship line. It la up to Portland. "I want to nay that for the com- menfeement of the enterprise there has never been a time In the history of Portland when there was so much as ! nnranca of success. We have sptendld prospects, but we have got to work J every day of every month and every , week from this time on. I want to J say here how that the duty of getting ( business for this line, north and south j bound, must be kept constantly in the minds of our people. ' "0r committee has worked hard i to get all the preliminaries in the best possible ehape. We. began months ( ago, so that all business men would have ample time to prepare. Everyone , has had ample notice. Traveling sales . men have been sent north by aome of the leadinor companies, and otherg must follow. We have an opportunity never presented before, and there is no term that would express fort land's weak and folly if we threw this oppor- t toalty .a war. " . " it Blast Bustle tot Business, , "From this day on, the campaign to- get our fair share of Alaska busi ness will be incessant. Everything that can be done will -be kept' under way "to intensify interest, strengthen us and extend our trade. This Is Just the opening of the whole Alaska field. ;Jn due time we will enter every, part of the territory, on an equal footing with our competitors. We say thiJte icause we can get an equal freight rate with Seattle and other ports, and this makes the territory strictly competitive. "Alaska now buys as a whole, about $23,000,000 to J25.000.000, while Cana dian side of the Yukon basin takes about 13.000,000. Our line as it is now being established to southeastern Alaska will open a territory that took last year about $9,000,000 worth of merchandise. By connecting with the White Pass & Yukon Railway at Skag way, where we are aswured equal rates in vek'.ng Yukon basin trade, we will be pprmltttd to reach nearly $7,000,000 purchasing business on the interior. Trade Is Worth While. "T want to say that this trade now opened, aggregating about tl.000,000 a year in purchasing power, st worth whll. U Is one of the greatest single trade openings we could develop. Boats win ne iurnisnea to Handle U Just as fast as our business men can get the ousiness. "We recognize that for the first two years our business men cannot expect to niak.; profit. Seattle Will probably nhow an ugiy spirit, and resort to trade methods not recognized in common competitive territory. But whatever our business men have to sacrifice to get and hold this business, we must do and make without complaint. The future is worth thousands of times mre than it will cost to get the whole trade established. "I want to say that the spirit of the people of Alaska, where our lines will reach, 1b the best I have ever known in a community Juat being ap j reached for support, Strongest as surances are coming to us that we will be given a most cordial welcome. All we i.ave got to do is give proper prices. treat tne Alaskans with the same cour tesy and fairness now recognized In this territory, furnish goods of the highest merit, and the people of Alaska will fliare their business with us gen erously." The Portuguese government has planned an extensive system of wireless- stations to link Lisbon with Ha colonies and other European capitals.

The soliciting committee appointed to secure funds for ths Eastern Oregon State Normal School publicity campaign raised $1625 here today in a few hours. The com mittee has set it! mark at $4000 Much confidence is felt here that the voters will sustain the school in the November election, in view of the fact that more trained teachers are needled in uregon, and tiat the school's per manent maintenance, on a substantial basis will cost each year but two and one-half cents on every thousand dol lars of taxable property.
