happen to be the hired employes of
the same organization, who is the
colored gentleman in the wood
pile? ft. 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. What more right have'
we to butt in and help any part
of the British empire to do its,
dlrjy washing?
9. If self determination is good
for the south of Ireland, whv is it !
not equally good for Ulster? The
South has been offered autonomy 1
but insists that it will not accept ,
unless the northern province be !
forced, willy nllly. to go Into the
comhinitin.
10. If the autocracy on the Ti
ber has a personal quarrel with
Great Britain, or with Kamschatka
what business is that of the aver.
age American citizen? i
11. When will the Irish learn !
that the average American hates
like sin to have a hvphen con
stantly crammed down his throat? ,
We have no use for anything that !
is not simon pure Americanism I
Let the man who can't forget :
everything else but that he is a
hundred per cent American go
back tothe land that begot him.

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.

Who Is Brandon?
Editor Statesman: In your is
sue ot last Sjunday morning ap

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
