"Entered at the Postoifice inlalem. Oregon, as second class matter.
WE SHOULD PREPARE FOR PEACE.
With truth and timeliness the Christian Science Jonitor, a non
partisan paper, says that ''The Germans, even though defeated on
the field, will come back' into the commercial struggle with many
advantages in certain lines, in the dye-stuff line especially." etc.
Of this there can be not the slightest doubt.
German dye .factories were transformed into munition ? factories
over night, and they will as quickly be changed back to the manu
facture of dyes. '
Hundreds of other German factories were adapted to the produc
tion of implements and essentials of war, and they will as readily be
turned back to their original uses.
Not only in the production of dye stuffs, but in other lines, and,
as the! Monitor remarks, "with many advantages," Germany will
come back, j
Of course there will be a sentimental prejudice against German
made goods, and much of the German product will be sold without a
trade mark, or with a misleading one.
But Germany will be here with the goods as soon as the war is
over, pressing them upon our buyers with all the arts known to the
salesman's profession.
What are we going to do about it T .
There are many of us who believe that a protective tariff should
be reestablished, not only for the purpose of guarding against a flood
of German goods, but to guard against disastrous competition from
any other country in Europe or Asia. '
.There are others, particularly the Democratic free traders, who
believe we should buy where we can buy cheapest.
Long before we entered this war, there were men of foresight who
agitated for preparedness. T' f y vere ridiculed, and denounced as
"nervous and hysterical.'" Iu ibis time of war there are those who
are. agitating fW prepay Jre ir pene. They also are ridiculed
and denounce,! a pari isari, wh,. Jt taring to play politics.

ZIONISTS SEE FULFILLMENT OF
TIIEIK DREAM.
Plans for the establishment of an
Independent Jewish sta.te in Pales
tine after the war will be the chief
topic of discussion at the twenty
first convention of the American
Federation of Zionists, which began
its sessions in Pittst.urg Sunday.
Five hundred delegates, represent
ing every Zionist pw iety iu the
United States, have gone to Pittsburg
to participate in the proceedings.
The convention is being addressed
by eminent speakers, am on ? them
Lord Reading, the British ambas a
dor to the United States, and Louia
Brandets. associate justice of the su
preme court cf the United States.
The convention is the most notable
in the history of the Zionist move
ment among the Jews of America.
It is in the nature of a jubilee
gathering, for it is the first time
that the advocate of Zionism have
come together under conditions that
promise an early fulfillment of their
Jreams.
With Palestine wrested from the
hands of the Turks by the British
and with the British government hav
ing already given what amounts to
an official approval of the Zionist
plans, the greatest obstacles in the
way of the success of the Zionist
movement have been removed.
Much still remains to be done be
fore the project becomes an accom
plished fact, but the Zionists feel
that the most difficult part of their
task has been' put behind them. The
chief work yet to be accomplished
will be the raising of the necessary
finances and the devising of a suit
able plan for the government of the
Jewish National Homeland in Pales
tine. The "Return to iPalestine" hai
been a dream of the Jews the world
over for centuries.
But it was not ! until some twenty
five years ago that the Zionist move
ment was founded and glvm definite
shape by the late Dr. Thcodor Henl,
the afmous Hungarian leader. In a
single day Dr. Henl- sprang into
fame by making the announcement
that Zion must berestored. and that
the holy land must 'be returned to
the race to which Moses gave it.
Up to the time of the Dreyfws af
fair. In. France, which awoke such
world-wide Indignation and sympa
thy Dr. Herxl had taken no -special
stand in regard to the Jews. But hi
was in Paris during the time of the
Dreyfus trial, and almost at once be
gan to work for what he called Zion
ism and. to publish a paper called
the "Jewish State."
Dr. Herxl proposed the rehabilita
tion of the Jewish state, the resur
rection of the old glories of Israel
and Judah In one solid nation, hav
ing the old site for its abode.
He declared that it had become a
solemn duty for the Jews to re-establish
their nation.
They had fall?n Into a passive
acceptance of their lives, he declared,
and were showing no activity.
His first step was to issue a call
for a congress to be held at Bale,
Switzerland, in order that an exact
knowledge might be obtained of the
sentiment amont; Jews all over the
world In regard to the teeempt to
lebuild Palestine. The enthusiasm
Known at this initial gathering en
couraged the leaders to push the
matter with zeal, and a second con
gress was held at Bas'e the next
year. In 1S93. Since then the gath
erings have been held almost every
year and the movement has spread
to all parts of the world.
At the same time the Zionist move
ment has been vigorously opposed
by many eminent Jews, wb?. in their
prosperity among other peoples, havt
no desire to go back to the land that
was desolated by Rome.
But the Zionist does not appeal to
these.
His wish is to refound his nation
with) a "remnant," as did Ezra when
he rebuilt the walls of the holy city.
The Zionist plan is to establish ac
independent state In Palestine, to be
the home of the oppressed Jewish
people of all lands and of other Jew
who may elect to take up -their abodt
tlxere. "Let us return to Judaism f rst.
Is the appeal of the Zionist, "and
hen to the land."
All Palestine needs Is labor tr
make it a garden.
Its productivity is greater than
that of California in proportion tr
its size.
The money to restlre It is to be
raised in Europe and America.
Already the Jews of America hav.
begun the raising of a fund to aid
In this purpose.
riMHIIIllTlOV IN PHILIPPINES.
The passage of the national prohi
bition amendment will cause weep
ing and walling and gnashing of
teeth In the Philippines. They have
among the Moros a native drink
called vino. It is made of the milk
Of the cocoanut They put this milk
out in the sun and let it stand there
until it is fermented: then they add
raw alcohol to strengthen it and
plug tobacco to flavor IL
If a white rrian drinks it. one drink
will cause him to steal, two drinks
will result In his beating up his
mother-in-law and three drinks will
make him crazy. The Moro drinks
but little of this delightful beverage.
He makes it to sell to sailors and"
roustabouts and other people.. And
enough can be purchased for 25 cents
to make drunk the csew of a small
ship. The Moro prizes tht right to
make and sell this charming bever
age as he prizes the right to practice
polygamy.
A ;ooi uf.;innim;.
The official score for the first
wetk of the fighting by the Ameri
can troops on the Marne Is as fol
lows: ' Killed and wounded. 7S0;
miring, presumably prisoners. 2;
enemy prisoners taken. 9 SC. That
is a record of whbh America may
be very proud. It bcrms iluiost too
good to be true that the Americans
should have taken nearly 1000 pris
oners in their first week of actual
fighting and have left but two of
our own In the hands of the enemy.
This record takes no account of the
German dead or or the wounded
that they were able to carry away.
The advance.! uard cf our Liberty
Army has st a high standard for
those who come after. Americans
can not be blamed for boast'ng over
a socre like that.

The Story of a Honeymoon
A Wonderful Romdnet of Married Life Wonderfully Told bfADELE GARRISON
A WILLING GIKL MAKES A GOOO
SERVANT
The chiming of the clock an hour
after Dicky had gone to the studio
after our gay little noon dinner
warned me that I was not dressed
and that the cooks whose adver
tisements I had answered might call
at any minute. I I dressed and ar
cangd my hair. Just as I put in
the last hairpin the bell rang.
Two women, covertly eyeing each
other with suspicion, flood In the
hallway when I oiened the door. To
my invitation to come in each re
sponded. "Thank you." and the en
trance of both was quiet.. Whea
they sat down in the chairs I drew
forward for them I mentally ap
praised them for a moment.
One was a middle-aged woman of
the strongly marked German type.
Clean, trig. grim, she spelled effi
ciency in every line of her body. The
other, a ta'l Polish girl, or: perhaps
22. wss exeremely neat, but her
pretty brown hair was blown around
her face and her blue eyes were fair
ly dancing with eagerness. In con
trast to the expression of the other
woman. As I fared them, the older
woman eompressedf her Hps In a thin
line, while the girl smiled at me In
friendly fashion.
"You cam in answer to the ad
Tcrtlements?" I queried.
The oider woman silently held
forth my letter and two or three
other papero pinned together. 1
saw that they were references writ
ten In various feminine chirography.
Her silence was almost uncanny.
"Oh! yes. Missle." the Polish girl
exclaimed. I "put my what do you

ling. Her good nature was Infect

You got maid yet?
"Not yet." I answered and turned
to the other woman.
"Thirty- five dollars a month, ev
ery other Sunday and every other
Thursday out. no washing, no bed
making, no children.
If there are only two in the family
I will do all the cleaning." Her
voice was metallic, her tone was mo
notonous, as If she were reciting a
lesson.
"You must do first class work to
demand so much money."
"That is not much." she looked
coldly at me. "I am a first-class
me how much you wish to spend
each week. I will manage your
house on that If not too small. I
can cook and serve a dinner for
guests without anr bfln t An nr. I
j like anyone In my kitchen to help,
jeven the madam. You read my rtf
erences. They will tell you what
' I can do."
I turned to the other. "How
much do you 'want, and what can
you do?'
The Polkh gitl shook her head
sniTiingly.
"If you take br. you no want me.
I tell notting while she here. Ir you
no take her. then she go. then I tell
yon everything.
According to all my theories and
training I should have chosen the
older woman. Efficiency has al
ways been an Idol of mine. It was
my slogan In my profession. It U
my humiliation that I seem to have
none of It In my housework. The
German woman evidently was cap
able of administering my household
much better than I could do It.
Perhaps It was because, of this very
reason that I found myself replied
by her. and subtly diawn by the
lasm.
"Have you much company and
does your husband bring home
friends without notice?" The older
woman's harsh tones broke In.
The questions turned the scale.

always tried to reason, she was per

"That will not trouble yon." I
said, for I do not believe I wish

I smiled to myself as I handed her
the carrare. remembering the tiff

but I put the thought from me.

julotly as she went out.
The Polish girl bounced from her

"She no good to talk to yon like
