Great . Britain was In the right. Wilson has resisted Roosevelt, ignored the clamor of Jingoes and defied militarists by refusing to make war on Mexico and by de clining to Involve America in the European conflict. AH three were criticized alike. Each suffered - from " the lash ' of pumic attacK. .History. Has ap proved Washington and Lincoln. On the day of Lincoln's anniver eary. many minds will revert to the - close parallel between - the events of 1861-5 and 1913-6. It almost seems as if fate had ex pected two great social cataclysm? and had) raised up a man for each crisis. , Lincoln's hatred of American encroachments In Mexico was voiced In his famous -resolution, his votes and his speeches In Con gress In opposition to the Mexican war. A i rancorous . criticism of his attitude, a criticism that was of ten I voiced in Jeers was visited upon the Intrepid statesman. . Wilson's opposition to American oppression in Mexico has been manifested in his refusal to recog nize the Huerta tyranny, and by his - determination not to invade tLat" country with the armed forces of the United States. Turbulence in Mexico . like that in Wilson's time was present during Lincoln's time, and there was the same de mand for armed Intervention. Both presidents endured criticism in si lence, and both adhered persist-' ently to ' the policy of permitting the Mexicans to work out their own destiny. Lincoln was, assailed and condemned for his course dur ing the civil war. Jingoes, mili tarists, tories, politicians and cop perheads pursued him relentlessly :nd constantly: His liberal policy for the proposed admission of se ceded states was condemned- as treasonable. In t. series of crises not less rave, Wilson has been as- violent ly assailed. Roosevelt has led the hysteria of denunciation, and there as. been a multitude of copyists .'ilson's motives have been mls - nrtrued and his purposes - ma- -ned. His steady and patient inerence to a course of settling inferences with other nations by iplomacy; rather than by war had and plenty of critlcB, just &3 ere were plenty of critics of Lln- la id the great crises of 1861-5.

Towed down about three miles with the last of the ebb tide; weather very squally; we came to about two .mues from the village Chinouk with many natives alongside." Here for the first time. In the log of the Columbia, Captain Robert Gray from Boston recorded in I7?J the In dian name that long ago attached to the distinctive snow-melting wind that rinw over the summit of the Cascade mountains and changes in a twinkling the weather of the inland empire. Th nhinooir Indians were tne larg est tribe Inhabiting tne lower vniiey of the Columbia, and their tanguaga fnot the Chinook jargon of - later, de velopment, but the native tongue) was widely spoken, with dialectical varia tions, along the Columbia as far east ward as The ualies in eastern uregwn. " Thus It came that the tribes of the interior termed the warm, stiff breeze that flows out of the west in midwin ter, the ehinook wind, since It seemed to -come out of the country of the Chl nooks. Many years later the first white settlers in the interior fell Into tha uma erroneous belief that the Chinook is a warm wind blowinr W from the Paelfio and finding vent through the mighty gorge of the Co lumbia.. . V . .- m m "It is a mistake, says an encyclo pedia authority, "to think that tne Chinook originates over the warm wa ters .

"Several very different combinations of conditions may cause descending winds, but in any case descending air bv comlnsr under greater pressure must be compressed and therefore warmed Jin at the rate of about one degree Fahrenheit for each 18 feet of descent Therefore a tan oi eouv feet will raise the temperature of the air by 30 degrees Fahrenheit, and as this warmth is very felowly lost, the warm air spreads over a wiae extent of ground." It ls an interesting coincidence that the rirat severe winter experienced by white men In the Inland empire, and the first noted effects of the Chinook wind occurred Just-i00 years ago.
