WRITES HIS OWN EDITORIAL
. R. 3, Salem, Or., Feb. 7, 1922.
Editor Statesman:
I am sending you the facts of an incident that happened
here at. Hall's Ferry yesterday. It may not appeal to you,
but I believe it is a good theme for one of your common-sense
editorials. Too many of us forget that is is our duty to look
after the comfort of the animals of the lower kingdom ; all
we seem to see is man, alone. Yours truly,
, v . A. H. BARKS
, E. M. Croisan came out from Salem yesterday morning
to look after his farm. On his way from the station to the
farm, when opposite the McMillan place, he heard the pitiful
whine of a dog across the river. His sympathy was at once
aroused. He inquired the cause from several neighbors and
was told that the owner had kept the dog tied up for the
last week. This explanation did not satisfy him, and he
tried to enlist their services to go across the river with him
to Investigate. None of them had any interest in the mis
fortune of a member of the dog family. He continued his
search for help until he met 16-year-old Lionel Colby, who
volunteered to cross the river with him. Lionel remembered
seeing a boat washed ashore a half mile down stream. Mr
Croisan at onceprocured a bountiful feed for the dog. To
gether they proceeded down the river and found the boat
lying on the bank in a leaky condition. They launched the
boat With a piece of board for an oar the boy paddled the
boat across stream, while Mr. Croisan bailed water to keep
it from sinking. Landing on the opposite bank, another half
mile walk and they found the dog, a magnificent specimen
of bird dog, wearing a collar with a Polk county license tag,

other men, representing all parts of the United States, who
serve the movement voluntarily as "members of the National
Council a total of approximately 523,000 boys and men. This
is the organization that is celebrating its 12th anniversary
this week. Nearly every community in the United States is
represented. The Boy Scouts of America was incorporated
February 8thr 1910. The name, insignia and uniform of the
movement are protected by a special charter of Congress
granted June 15th, 1916.
The Boy Scouts are well represented and do most effi
cient work in Salem, and they deserve unanimous and hearty
support for their organization.

Lloyd George told the house of
commons yesterday afternoon that
the Washington conference was
one of the greatest achievements
ever registered in the history of
the world. This is generous, con
sidering the fact that Lloyd
George was himself unable to at

thing about the statement is that
it Is true.

people have had a demonstration
cf the victorious power of organ-
without food or water for a week and was in a famished con
dition. Mr Croisan says the dog's manifestation of joy in
being released fully repaid him for the trouble.
The facts themselves as given by Mr. Barks make a very
good and readable editorial
And they need no embellishing to make them carry an
appeal to the highest and best in human nature.
The sufferings of dumb animals, not able to speak for

OUR LARGEST UNIFORMED ORGANIZATION
Not even excepting the Army and Navy combined, the
Boy Scouts of America is the largest uniformed organiza

there are more than 84,000 men serving voluntarily in other
capacities troop committeemen, members of local councils,

these there are between five and six hundred men giving full

Fate favored Japan by giving
her the genro, or elder statesmen,
when she- was emerging from me
dievalism into the ways of the
modem world. Fate now favors
her just as much in taking away
the genro, which has discharged
its function.
The death of Yamagata, the
iron man of the genro, means the
passing of that peculiar institu
tion, both because there is no
Other to take his place in it and
because the institution has been
outgrown by the nation which it
d'd so much to develop.
The reason for the formation
of that invisible but absolute gov
ernment which functioned beside
rather than behind the throne was
a perfectly sound one and the ex
periment was justified by the re
sults. A few men of the domi
nant type in Japan realized 50
years ago that Japan could not
keep outside the modern world
and at the same time saw that
she was unfitted to rush into it.
either as an absolute monarchy
or as a democracy. Neither the
royal family nor the common peo
ple had the strength for adequate
leadership.
The ruling family had at first
glance the appearance of great
strength. For one thing, it was
unique among the eynasties then
enthroned throughout the world
in that it had maintainad its pow
er from the dawn of the nat?on'3
history. That, in itself, spoke fir
genuine kingship. Nevertheless,
it was decadent, its ruler and pre
sumptive rulers showing marked
traits or insanity and utter ina
bility to think to the quick-time
of the world about them.
Likewise the Japanese people
were unfitted for be5ng more than

After you have painted your
model, give it a glossy finish by
applying a coat of white shellac.
This may bo purchased for a small

Apply the shellac with a bristle

BROWXIE OWL HELPS

day wheta-he had fallen from his

Eeeraed to be an orphan. He was
a funny little soft brown owl with
solemn big eves and a queer way

The boys brought him into the
house, although he seemed frigh

them as he pecked at th3 bits of

was an investigator and a bold
leader. Getting at grips with
facts was an inherited passion rf
his. Nearly three centuries be
fore his birth an ancestor of ins
had been sent on one of the
strangest missions eve assigned
to any man. Hs had been ordered
by the empsror to invest!gate the
actual workings of Christianity in
its stronghold. Europe, and to re
port his findings. In order to
facilitate his investigations that
shrewd noble pretended to em
brace Christian'ty and spent many
months in its chief centers. His
report was to the point:
" C h r i stianity, preaching
peace, breeds wars; feigning
charity, it shelters greed; in
sisting that all men must ac
cept its one faith, its leaders
cannot agree among them
selves as to what that faith
is."
However. Yamagata hal a new
set of facts to deal with when he
cams to maturity. Religion was
no longer Europe's chief concern
Indeed. Europe took religion like
she took snuff, still showily, but
not seriously. Her new religion
was business and her aim con
quest and markets. Japan could
not avoid coming into the new
world; the only question was as
o terms.
Yamagata was determined that
she should come with her head up
and raise it ever higher. The
emperor saw hazily on the whole
question. The people were still
like cattle. In the emereencv
Yamagata drew a few strong men
about himself and became the in
visible government of Japan. That
group fought out, first of all, the.
issue of isolation or a world rola
fof Japan, winning on the latter
proposition. It then converted
the nation into a military-economic
machine, capable of prosecut
ing either war or business successfully.
Even Germany achieved no such
combination of government and
'ndustry as Japan worked out un
der the genro. In no other na
tion in the world is business
fclK and little business so tied up
and interrelated in cooperative
ownership and management be
tween the government, the ruling
family and the people the big
and little capitalists and the la
bor'ng people as it is in Japan.
This combination owns and oper
ates great and small ocean steam
ship ltnes and shipbuilding plants,
railroad and street railway sys
tems, power plants, factories,
banks, etc., etc.
Japan goes forward as one peo
ple, qven more completely and
harmoniously than did Germany
before the World war, or does
since.
Needless to say, it did not take
the white races long to realise
that a new power had arisen, es
pecially after the Russo-Japanese
war.
Recently, however, the tide has
been running against the genro.
The rest of the world began to
look with decided suspicion upon
the grasping policy of Japan. Her
program of bold governmental
participation in industrial exploi
tation abroad became odious. Her
increased armament took on the
character of a menace. Further-
fore, the Japanese people, mak
ing swift strides toward demo
cracy while their government was
growing as a world factor, took
on real strength.
The influence of the gearo
gradually faded under opposition
from other nations and dissatis
faction at home. Liberals domin
ated the legislative branch of th?
government. Then Yamagata';
pliant tool: the weak-minded em
peror, was taken from the throne
and his son, pledged to democrat
ic ways, became ragent.
Yamagata in other words, had
played his game beyong the cii
max. He was old, past 84, to b
sure, but nevertheless he was
rugged enough to have lived long
er had hi willed it. It is just
probable that death did noj. call
htm. He may have called death.
Great men have done as much
before.
