And nothing worse than shame:' HEROISM AT A DISTANCE ?9 0 a certain type of papers, of which the Oregonian is one, everything that Germany does is ominous, grave and insulting to the Unit ed States. Ye should prepare instantly for war and get into it if we can, regardless of whether anything could be gained by such a move. All who do not share such crazy notions are cowards. Fortunately such embecility is its own best remedy and does not carry far. Those ulta-war-like tendencies are generally shared by parties who expect to be far from the maddening whirl if war should really come. They are warriors by proxy and can be brave with out danged. Hence it does no harm to beat the drum with vast ferocity. Besides swash buckling appeals to many and may help along that senatorial boom. BELGIUM'S GREATEST IN SULT ft" HOMAS B. REED once said that when a certain man spoke he subtracted from the sum total of human knowledge and his remark might well be applied to the venerable John Wannamaker in connection with his proposal to buy Belgium from the Ger mans and give it back to the Belgians when ready for self government. Mr. Philadelphian may not have intended it as such but he has nevertheless handed the Fuffering Belgians about the worst insult thus far heaped upon them. A free and vali ant people do not want to se cure their freedom through the efforts of any associated char ities organization, in the Unit ed States or elsewhere. If for no other reason the Wannama ker proposal is preposterous because the Belgians would not like it. The Belgians want country back again and will get it. But they want some one to give their thej don't it to them on the basis a dog would get a bone. They will get their country back by the same methods it was taken from them. They will get it by the sword and there are good rea sons for believing that when the settlement is made will get good interest those who hold their kingdom. they from little LIFE ON A SUBMARINE F all modern games that ill of submarining for ships of the enemy probably offers the most chances for thrilling experience. But it is plainly a game that all cannot eta mi. The hardships of life on a submarine are in keeping with the menace of the divers in a naval sense. One of the German subma rines captains who was cap tured. Commander Hansen of the V-lfi, recently described how it feels to be in a sub merged submarine : "It is fearfully trying on the penes. Every man does not stand it. When running under sea there is deathlike stillness in the boat as the electrical ma chinery is noiseless, As the air heats it gets poor and mixed with the odor of oil from the machinery. The atmos phere becomes fearful. An overpowering sleepiness often attacks new men and one re quires the utmost will power to remain awake. I have had Imen who did not want to eat during the first three days out because they did not want to lose that amount of time from sleep. Day after day spent in I men cramped quarters, where I there is hardly room to stretch your legs, and constantly on the alert, is a tremendous strain on the nerves." The war aviator has at least one advantage over the sub marine sailor. He secures plenty of air, though he is more subject to attack, through be ing seen, than is the undersea fighter. FREEDOM OF SPEECH TfO forbid freedom of speech to an American is to strike somewhere near the foundation of what he con- ismers xoieraoie government. If the report that Dr. Scott Nearing, assistant professor of economics in the W harton school at the University of Pennsylvania, has been drop ped from the payroll because of his persistent utterances in favor of academic freedom in defiance of the university trus tees is true, his case is one of national interest. Are our universities to teach only the theory and persuasion of whoever happens to have been selected or elected to the position of regent or trustee? It should be remembered, too, that under our system little ef fort has been made to put men of broad learning and sympa thies on these boards because it has never occurred to us that our teachers were to be taught j by them. We usually have made honors of the places, in the overwhelming number of instances limiting our select ions to one class of men thosf who have made money, are profoundly respectable as far as we know, and who naturally feel kindly to the system that has given them such complete recognition and appreciation. Several months ago the pro- xessors ana instructors of a number of educational institu tions united in an organization to protect their freedom of speech. We are wondering if any investigation of the Near ing case will be undertaken? Chicago Tribune. THIS MA Y ENTERTAIN -SOME HER" ncnoN.

(Continued from page one.) nywlse and pound foolish. Regard less of the reason for the dilatory tactics, the game department of I'nion county, and of Wallowa county too, where much the same condition has existed for some little time, is suffering severely. Fishermen are known to be pull ing and keeping fish three and four inches long; it is apparent that some streams have been dynamited; grouse are being shot out of season in num bers, it is claimed, and the whole ef forts of law-abiding sportsmen to stock streams and propogate game birds will be annihilated the work of years can he undone in a season by ruthless violation of the game laws which is bound to follow the absence of a person whose specific duty it is to seek out and have punished those who don't adhere to the laws. It is time that the commission showed its hand. The sportsmen have suffered long enough. Bring on a game warden: LAWYER OEMAXDED -IRRIttA- TIOX" EKE TO BUY IKIXKS ST. LOl'IK. July 28.

Judge Watson has been in office since January. while the others have served a number ol years as commissioners. The direct cause of the agitation against the county court Is the re cent reduction of pay for workmen and teams on the county highways, when the remuneration was reduced fm men from $2,50 to $2.25 a day and for teams from $5 to $4.50 Thehoard of equalization, of which James Watson was a member when county clerk In 1913 and 1914, reduc ed the valuation of timber lands $1, 600,000 and this Is laid to Judge Wat ton by ranch owners.

V ith their return the European bat tlefields are left virtually without Am erican military olwervers. While both officers and also the war de partment refused to discuss their re turn. It Is believed to be a fulfillment t f secretary Garrison's policy to with draw officers where their presence caused friction and embarrassment It is said the popular idea among officers In the armies of the Teutonic allies of the destruction wrought by American arms and ammunition made the position of the American observ ers uncomfortable. 1 EX-GOVERNOR YATES NAMED IN DIVOitCE CASE EUREKA.
