OREGON'S
In 1863 President Lincoln made an executive jorder trans
ferring Sand Island located near the mouth of tpe Columbia
river, to the national gdvernment as a navaJT-reserve for
military purposes. r j jj i -
The United States general In command in 1864 stated
in a letter to the governor of Oregon that this islind was tide
land and urged the state to cede it to the government for
military use. The legislature follo-ving this date acting upon
the request granted the cession, it is shown, in the faith that
the government would use the island for military purposes.
But there is an omission in the wording of the legisla
tive act. The three words "for military purposes" are left
out of the act. That they were explicitly implied there is no
doubt since they were contained in the o.orrespofidence of the
commanding general.
The national government did nothing witi the island
until twenty years ago and then began hosing the fishing
rights off its shores. And, during this period ai' time Uncle
Samuel has received over $500,000 income iron? this source.
But the state of Oregon recently became convinced that
"this great source of income is still hers; thatsne has never
relinquished her claim to it except for a definite purpose
which has never been developed; and that it isf her duty to
make use of it as a source of income. ' i
: Official steps were taken a few days ago tqj.make defin
ite reclamation of the "island and a lease has beejn indrawn and
signed by Governor Pierce granting to the Columbia River
Packers' association exclusive rights to the fishfrig privileges
off its shores. By the terms of
one-nan oi me aiiierence uei,ween tne cos oi (Qeraung nic
fishing industry and the receipts from the fish caught. The
operating expense is estimated at less than five cnts a pound,
he.market price is now twelve 'cents a, pqund.The net
returns to the state per annum is estimated conservatively
: ' at $50,000. ;i-:Y! ; '. l'r : ; ; ' ;r ;:jr;.;1 .v, i
. The lessee accepts, in the lease, the obligation to bear all
costs of litigation in case the government contests the state's
claim in the courts. The government it is belief ed will press
;laim to this vast and valuable' natural resource
. r Official Oregon has done her duty in this lading claim to
Sand Island. ; And she should defend her pbsjticjh here to the
limit To restore this splendid
plishment for the state.

European nations owe the United States jjor war loans
aggregating over $8,000,000,000. Since the world war
the taxpayers of this country have paid on thisgoan made to
help the allies over $1,500,000,000 in itself tremendous
sum of money and represents for the America? people, real
sacrifice. At this time, however, on both sides of the Atlantic
there is being spread propaganda for cancellation of the debtJ
Cancellation should be given no consideration. These
war loans were made in response to appeals far, arms,, men,
food and other supplies when thearmy "of the Rhine was
threatening the very gates of aris; when their airplanes
were hovering over London; iandwhen the allie0 forces were
in despair. And the United States required u bonus, no
ironbound security. She trusted to the spirit if justice and
sent, in addition to her loansi thousands of he able bodied,
clear visioned, courageous young men to do or die for the
Allies' safety and success. It cost this nation billions in
money, thousands of her young men arid saddled upon us a
war debt that will require a generation or more cf time to pay.
, What did the United States obtain to of feet her loss?
She received no territory; no moneybut from those nations
which now hesitate to arrange for liquidation f their debts
to us, seeming ingratitude. -:-.: ' lh '''

Great Britain, Hungary, Poland, Lithuania have com
mitted themselves, to payment of their indebtedness to us.
France, Italy, Belgium, Czecho-Slovakia, Greece, Roumania
and others have paid little attention to their obligations, i
Uncle Samuel is more than justified in insisting that
arrangements for payment shall be now made. f.
Premier Painleve of France urges that America shall
have no anxiety over the. former's mission in Morocco. He
assures, us that it is in the ; interest of world peace. The
success of such mission is devoutly desired. It is a propitious
time also for this nation to declare her intention to lend
neither means nor influence, to anything but peace.

CHAPTER 34
THEj CURIOUS WAY MRS DUR
KEE TOOK DR. FOXHAM'S 5
-J i DECISION ?
I have seen fMrs. - Durkee . In
times of stress and bare always
known her to come through with
colors flying, but never have I
admired my little friend more
than when she faced Dr. Foxham
and quietly asked him if he advis
ed an operation for the growth
whose signs he had found beneath
her arm.
AM the nervousness, the almost
hysteria, which had been hers be
fore the physician's examination
had vanished. It was as if an
heroic soldier, visualizing to the
full what awaited him, and sum
moned all his fortitude to advance
into battle as befitted 'a man. But
though a gallant little figure, she
was a pitiful one, and I felt a
choking sensation; in my throat
as I looked at her,
That Dr. Foxham's professional
Imperturbability was threated with
compassion. I knew as I saw the
look he bent upon my little friend.
And his voice held infinite gentle
ness as be answered her. ; ' iA
I "Yes, I advise an operation, but
-rit.'Js a slight one. in all prob
ability ydu can leave the hospital
In a week, and your will be reliev
ed of your pain. Isn't that wbrth
while?
"You Are a Relative?"
" Little Mrs. Durkee caught her
breath. .
"Oh! That pain all gone? That
would be heaven!" she exlaimed
and then faced him with eager
questioning eyes.
"Would you operate. Dr. Fox
ham?" .; ;
. "No, I do not do surgical work,"
he replied.
"Oh, dear," she said dolefully,
"and I jam so afraid Dr. Pringle,
my physician out in Marvin
doesn't either."
Mentally I thanked my partic
ular' little joss for this latter cer
tainty, and caught Dr. Foxham's
quick comprehending look at my
face. I must have betrayed my
low opinion of elderly Dr. Prin
gle's ability without intending to
do so.

"You 'are a relative or Mrs.
Durkee!" he asked me suddenly.
"Xo, only her nearest friend,"
I returned. . , .
'But you have near relatives.?"
he turned to her. , ;
'Myson and daughter-in-law,"
she answered, looking frightened.
"But they mustn't know about this
It would, scare them to death!"
"But that is nonsense," he said
with audden sternness. "There is
nothing ! to be frightened 'about,
and even if there were, you can
not : go through with this alone.
Mrs. Graham, may I ask you . to
tell Mrs. Durkee's son of this visit
and 'ask him to drop in to see
me say tomorrow If it is con
venient for him to do so? That,
will save you the necessity . of
coming in again" he turned back
to my little friend with so charm
ing a smile that her patent resent
ment at his taking things out of
her hands promptly vanished.

"I shouldn't mind that a bit,"
she . retorted with the swift co
quettish upward lift of the eyes,
which is as natural to Her Fluffi
nees as are playful tricks to a
kitten. "But, still. I do get awfully
tired, so I suppose it will be best
for Alf to come in. Tomorrow,
you said?" ,
"Yes, I shall have more time
tomorrow than upon the following
days," he said. Then for a second
he looked directly at me, and I
fancied I saw a signal In his eyes
for no delay in Alfred's arrival at
his office.' ; t - '.
"He's terribly busy, but I'll try
to see that he gets here," Mrs.
Durkee promised., and across her
head I signalled to Dr. Foxham
the assurance that busy or not.
