We would spit on our fists and get unduly "net" up if John- ny Bull would butt in and insist j that Mississippi and Alabama i should be allowed to set up a Black sepublic. upon the principle of self-determination of peoples. ,' because the majority of the popu lation of those states is ethnically African.

I OUR TIMBER AND OUR WATER POWER 'Ore- John H. Lewis, then State Engineer, in the official n Almanac," published in 1915, wrote these words : 'ADDroximatelv 20.000.000 horsepower, or one-third of all the undeveloped water power in the United States, is lo cated in the Columbia River basin." Some one has recently said that half the water power of the United States Is in the three Pacific Coast states, Wash ington, Oregon and California. Another authority says one-fifth of the standing timber of the United State is in Oregon. Still another, that the timber supplies of the region east of the Rocky mountains will be exhausted in 14 years; that every, manufacturing, concern, even a steel plant, must have sbme wood, for crates and boxes; that on the average 25 per cent of the raw materials of manufacturing plants is of wood. I Therefore, manufacturing plants will have to come where wood may be had and that the great bulk of the timber of tljiis continent is on the western slope; in Alaska, British Co lumbia, Washington, Oregon, California and the Pacific coast of Mexico. j And all this with three-quarters of the population of the oria just across uie racuic wean, juat at our uacn. uwis, hsiderea in the terms ,of cheap ocean transportation. Add to all this the fact that coal and all other fuels are owing constantly scarcer and higher, and that the great if ield of the immediate and distant future for hydro electric engineering and investments is along this coast And the dullest of us ought to see visions of a great fu ture for the Pacific Coast states.

PARIS, Sept. 21. General Pershing informed newspaper correspondents tonight that he would not return to America with, the body of an unknown American soldier.

Editor Statesman: In your is sue ot last Sjunday morning ap peared an arCicle entitled "Irish Question t6 be" Debated." This production raised several ques tions in ray mind which 1 would like to have answered. " 1. The article in question gysi "Rev. Mr. Brandon is a Baptist minister, of Kansas City, and is lecturer and editor of national re pute.'t. The name "Baptist" unac companied by any other designa tion is the legal property of the great American Baptist, conven tions, Northern. Southern anff Colored. These conjointly issue a Year Book which gives a list of all recognized ministers within the bounds of the denomination in the United States,' both pastors M otherwise. This Y'ear Book falls to make mention ot an "M. L. Brandon" or "Branson." What breed of cats is this Brandon any way, and with what Baptist au thority does he come? 2. Of what journal is he the edi tor, and what does it represent 3. Is the Rev. Ward Adams Cantrell the man who canvassed California in the Interests of th booze ean during their last "dry" campaign? I ask this question for Information. , 4. Who pays the bills of Revs. Brandon and Cantrell? Are thev paid by the same institution? If so arjs they not both working for the same Interests, and ts not their debate a farce? Will someone please ! give ' us light upon this question? , 5. I have been Informed that the men wjio ha been mi shin" this debate in Salem belong to Father Buck's flock. Is this the case? ..: 6. Is-lt trv.e that the man. or men, who hired the armory for this event'.'. are members ot the Knights of Columbus? It so. are .they doing it- merely, outi of ,1th benevolence ot their hearts? If this Is not the caso. mav w n have an ; authoritative denial of the same? . . 4m 1. 11 botn these IS DALLAS ALDERMAN City Council Elects Succes sor to Charles Bilyeu in Second Ward WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.
