a policeman behind the Judge."
He said In t'.ie New York Times, Octo
ber II. 1915. that lie favored a League of
Nations and that "the nations should
agree on certain rictus which should
not be questioned, such us territorial
lategrltjr. All should guaran
tee each of their number In the pos
sesion of these rights. They
should furthermore uRree. not only lo
abide, each of them, by the decision of
the court, mjt all of them i unite, with
laelr military forres, to enforce the de
cree of the court as against auy recal
citrant member.
"Under these circumstances It would
be possible to agree on a limitation of
armaments that would be real and ef
fective. It would b Impossi
ble, to say. that such an agreement
would at' once and permanently slop
wax. but it would mark an important
advance. It would certainly mean that
the rhasret of war were minimized

JlfcSTROTH GOOD WILL
If we enter the league we want to
command the respect, and friendship of
Other members. What would an Indi
vidual think of Joining a club but with
the reservation that he was to get all
the benefit and pay no dues? Would
be be the most popular member of that
club, especially if he were the only one
of 40 members entering with reserva
tions? The obstructing senators have already
gone far to destroy the most precious
asset, though an Intangible aaset, which
a nation can have and one which- we
possessed two years ago In a higher
decree than any nation In all history
International good wilt. If Harding
la elected, .we shall enter the league (If
at all) with nullifying- reservations and
under suspicion ; It will then be widely
believed both at home and abroad that
our entrance into the league haa Insuf
ficient sanction of the people.
W want an honorable peace whether
we enter the league or not. The Knox
resolution, simply declaring that "peace
exists," will not give us that honorable
standing in the eyes of the world. We
' shall be disgraced before our allies.
HOOTER FOR l.EAGl E
- Tbe Knox resolution means tha7we
get peace by the cheap and easy method
of running away and leaving our allies
to Impose terms on Germany and en
force them. Worse than that, we say

they are at a disadvantage already.
MEA98 LOSS IK MONET
This all means a lose in cash of -billions.
. - The Republicana , claim they
want to get in. In order to effect econ
omies. If they could save all the ex
penses of government and run the gov
ernment for nothing, they would not
save what they are proposing to loa by
failure to ratify the treaty of Versailles,
especially If our policy of washing our
hands of Europe's left-over war prob-,
lema results, as It may. In bankruptcy
and inability, therefore, to pay us back
some of the ten billions borrowed of us.
If we don't ratify, we shall have in
numerable private lawsuits of American
citisHis against Germany which we
can't, prosecute with success, and of
German clUiens against the United
Statea
Let us take a concrete case. A young
American on the Sussex, torpedoed by
a German submarine, was In the water
four hours and contracted pneumonia
which led to tuberculosis. He is en
titled to damages of, say, 150.000 which
could b assessed and collected under
the treaty of Versailles, but, without It,
ha can do little mora than whistle for
them. Is that the sort of protection
to our citlsens afforded by the Repub
licans? These complications could be
multiplied Indefinitely.
TWO ARE INSEPARABLE
The Republicans have gotten them
selves into an Impossible situation.
There Is only one practicable business
like thing to do and that la to ratify.
The league cannot be dissected out of
the treaty and, if It could, no other of
tbe 37 nations now in the league would
consent. No workable plan la possible
by which we accept the treaty without
the league while the rest, of the world
accepta it with the league, any more
than one man on an atnletlo team could
play football while the rest were play
ing baseball.
The league had to be a part of the
treaty of Veraalllea At first many of
the tranters of ilie treaty tl-ouglit to
have peace and! the league later, aa
tienator Harding now proposes. But
they soon' saw that thia waa impracti
cable. The-'Urt-over war' problems were
so numerous,, complicated and vast, and
their Immediate and complete solution
so Impossible that the league came at
once to be recognised aa an indispen
sable mechanism to be first erected so
that through It the problems could be
worked out deliberately and properly.
BEPL'IiLlCASS REACTIOXARY
These three reasons tot voting for
Cox and Koosevelt. naaeely, (1) to in
sure our entering the league, (2) to
check the senate oligarchy and (it) to
uphold the honor of the nation, are the
great, and compelling ones. There are
many minor ones such as :
To Intsre progressive legislation.
This is a period of reconstruction where
tbe watchword should be "progress."
Governor Cox Is progressive and con
structive. Senator Harding and the
group, whose creature he Is and whose
tool he will be, are reactionary. The
Republican platform Is full of the word
'not." It Is little less than negation,
criticism, complaint, hatred.
A vote for Harding is really for Pen
rose and his group, denounced as the
worst of reactionaries ly Theodore
Koosevelt, which means a return of the
old scandal of special interests to be
"protected" in return for campaign con
tributions. HE E FORCES LAW x
It is said that Harding will surround
himself by men abler than lie. But
when a weak man, naturally vacillating
and without guiding ideas of his ovfn, is
surrounded by abler men than ho Who
know exactly what they want but aren't
renpoiuilble for the action which they
Induce, the reaults are not promising.
even If there be the best of intentions.
One of Cox' bitterest political en
emies in Ohio aaid to nae, "I must con
fess I voted for him the last time be
cause he gave us the best govemmeht
the state ever had. He enforced the law
without fear or favor and whether he
personally approved of it or not."
Haa the Republican party lost Its soul
in the death of Koosevelt? I shudder
at the cynicism of one of the Repub
lican leaders, who said, "The people are
more interested In their stomachs than
in the heart of the world."
VAK9 OF AVALANCHE
If our boys at Chateau-Thierry had
been more Interested in their stomachs
man in me neart oi me world, tney
would have run away. They wiped away
that very reproach which had been
hurled at ua during the three long
weary years (1914-191) when England
and France did the fighting for us and
kept back the Hun at the cost of mil
lions of lives and billions of treasure,
and now that they are exhausted be
cu they defended us, we are asked to
desert them as 'a bankrupt-concern." "
Colonel House recently said of Eu
rope : "The feeling is general that
America has Shirked her responsibilities
and has deserted the world at a critical
time and for selfish reasons. Some feel
a grim satisfaction In the conviction
that if Europe foes down America will
go with her, no matter how hatd ahe
tries to hold aloof. On Wedneaday of
last week, at the unveiling of the
statue of the great, humane and uni
versally beloved Lincoln, Premier Lloyd
George gave voice to the feeling lying
deep in the hearts of all, when he said :

SHOOTING VICTIM
SAYS WIFE OWNED
GUN LIKE ONE USED
Balem.'Or.. Sept. JL that tha
gun used by Jesse Mullinix In his
assault upon TJgeo Stelger, aged
farmer, at his home north of Salem
last March la Identical to one
owned by Stelger's wife since their
marriage some eight years ago, waa
the testimony offered by Stelger
Tuesday in opening the case against
his wife, Lena Stelger, S3, pharged
with complicity in an assault with
lhtent to kill.
Jesse Mullinix. who confessed to the
assault on Stelger and implicated Mrs.
Stelger, Is serving an eight year sen
tence in the state prison here.
The gun. Introduced ss evidence, was
recovered by the sheriffs office from
North Mtll creek, near the city limits,
a few days after the assault and has
been identified by. Mullinix as the one
tith which he shot at Stelger, who was
seriously wounded.
Mullinix, In his confession Implicat
ing Mrs. Stelger, had declared that he
bad been hired by Mrs. Stelger to make
way with her husband and the prosecu
tion Is basing its case against the aged
woman on her ownership of the gun.
Eight of the 12 members of the Jury,
which was completed this morning, are
farmers.
Mullinix, who was placed on the wit
ness stand, positively Identified the re
volver as the one with which he had

Stelger about It months ago.
Questioned as to any expressed de
sire on the part of Mrs. Stelger to rid
herself of her husband. Mullinix de
clared that ahe had so expressed herself
at one time, after reciting a story of
cruel treatment at the hands of her
husband. After Stelger waa gotten
away with, Mullinix stated, he and Mra
Stelger were to divide Steiger's property.
Mullinix also admitted on the stand
that "J. Smith and wife.-" entered a
score of times on local hotel registers,
represented himself and Mrs. Stelger.
Mulliijlx Is an unwilling witness against
the woman.
STAGE RATTLES BY;

that the steam cars had come to stay.
They were skeptical and predicted that
the puffing, snorting carriages could
not make a living. However, where a
stage could carry not more than 14
persons, the first train out of Pendle
ton carried more than 30 passengers
and the doom of the Concord was
written.
"In those days stage coaches ran In
relays from St Joseph, Io., to Sac

north and south, with Pendleton as

whence stages operated Over many
routes in four directions.

STERLING FOLK PREVAILED
The days of which Barger tells so In
timately were tiie dayg of men and

But upon those men and women folks

is reflected uisrr'np.!y In the progress of
the great wewt upon the foundation they
built by the r to.ls. their hopes and their
loves devolved the task of rearing the
present generation of business men and
women who are carrying on their
works in a great manner, but less ac
tively, less hazardously and with less
force of personal character.

CROWD WAITS TO SEE
THREATCARRIED OUT
(Con tinned From Pace One)
the great crowd, giving a thrill to the
'masses of people in tha streets.
Fear or a possible attack on the cus
toms, house from the air led lo a scat
tering of the crowd at some points, while
others strained their eyes and craned
their necks to see what the airman wan
going to do. it was estimated that tbe
crowd bad grown to several thousand
people by this time.
There was a heavy detail of police on
duty about tbe customs house while
secrtt service agents thronged the build
ing and mingled with the peopie in the
Streets.
B10 BILL" INDIFFERENT
There was an air of suppressed ex
citement within the building. The clerks
on duty found it more and more diffi
cult to concentrate on routine duties as
the "aero hour" drew nearer. Collector
Edwards, genially knoVn to his Intimate
friends as "Big Bill." waa at his desk,
affable, smiling and Indifferent to the
tension all about him. -
Discussions of the Wall street bomb
blast and the mystery which has en
shrouded that as well as the possibility
of further outrages of the same kind
were on all men'a lips. The whole inci
dent furnished lower Manhattan with
a fine thrill.
With the prospect that the Wall street
bomb blast possibly may be added to the
nation's list of great unsolved crime
mysteries, the federal, county and muni
cipal detectives today settled down to a
long, systematic hunt for the bombmaker
or makers and commenced to eliminate
clues and theories that have so far yield
ed no result.
The grand Jury Investigation, which
began yesterday, has produced no evi
dence which would aid the Investigators
in solving the mystery. If the witnesses
who were summoned to testify today are
unable to giveany valuable evidence
It is likely UI at the grand jury will turn
to other matters tomorrow.
Thomas Lawlor, assistant custodian
of the custom house, estimated that
about one-third of the employes of the
postoffice substation in the building and
probably one half of the customs em
ployes had appeared at their posts. The
others had "important engagements"
elsewhere or were "detained at home by
illness."
One clue on which a large squad of de
tectives were concentrating their efforts
was contained in the sawed up 'window
weights which formed part of the in
fernal machine. Some of the Iron slugs
bore numbers between raised lines by
which it may be able to trace the plant
where they were made.

Ed Fischer, one-ttme Metnppolltan ten

how he was able to foretell the Wall

district attorney's office Monday.
"I tell you I got any information out

sisted in a complaining voice. "God

"Well, why not ask the same source
of information and tell us who set off

STOCKYARDS SCENE
OF RIOT OF RACES
Chicago. Sept. 21. (I. N. 8.)
Heavy details of 0olice are os aruard
in the stockyards district of the
South Side today to maintain order
foil -in g a race riot last night in
which one man was killed and sev
eral wounded. Police reports this
morning declare the situation is well
It hand.
Three negroes, accused of J. he mur
der of Thomas R. Barrett ire under
arrest today while several others are
held on suspicion of participating In the
riots The negroes charged with mur
der were captured after a mob of 6000
persona had driven Xhem to take refuge
in St. Gabriel's chrrch. The coolness
of Father Thomas Burke pastor of the
chorch. who held back the mob while
police spirited away the negroes, la be
lieved to have averted a lynching that
probably would have resulted in pro
longed and serloua rioting. '
Barrett, a former policeman, was
killed durln" an argument which Bar
rett Is said to have precipitated by re
marks made to three colored men who
had stopped on a street corner to buy a
paper. Barrett is said to have ordered
the negroes to "get out" and to have
knocked one of them down. The negroes
charged with 'irtmder are Sam Hayes.
Harry Snow and Frank Gatewood.
Barrett's friends gave chase to the
neirroes after he had fallen to the street
with numerous ratal knife wounds In his
body and a crowd quickly Joined in pur
suit. The negroes, terror-stricken, en
tered'St. Gabriel's church and hid. one
In the belfry, one In the confessional
and one in the sacristy. The mob
pounded st the church door.
Father Burke climbed to a pew and
shouted for silence.
"What -is this sacrilege?" he asked.
"Who are the rowdies that storm the
house of God?"
The mob quieted down and retreated.
A patrol wagon arrived. Father Burke
turned and called to the terror-stricken
negyoes. After some persuasion he in
duced them to come forth from hiding
and they were removed through a rear
door just ss the mob again gathered
about the front doors of the church.
One .whltt .nan was shot in the back
durjng the mobbing of a negro and a
negro was pulled from a car and beaten
with clubs.

PRESS IS UNFAIR
Continued Pram Pas One)
and is an American I think It la a dan
gerous tendency. For the people of the
country expect the press to be fair to
give both parties a square deal. That is
the ofrty safe way to retain confidence.
The governor, having been advised by
local ' leaders that very little about his
campaign in other states has been pub
lished in coast cities, has made it a
point to repeat many parts of preceding
speeches. His approach to Southern
California was a continuous reception
at the stations along the coast route
liven though he made no speeches on
Sunday and the people evidently did not
expect any, folks came out in large
numbers to greet the Democratic
nominee.
