RADICALISM TO FEAR
HERE have been some
peculiar developments
regarding the confer

UL publishing a magazine
that seems much con
cerned in the welfare of tim
ber monopolists criticises a
suggestion by the East Oregon
ian that beneficial use should
be requisite to retaining title
to timber lands.
According to the Chapman
view the suggestion means
timber could be taxed only
when being cut and hence
would mean the withdrawal
of an immense amount of tim
ber from taxation, thus rais
ing taxes on other property.
The same identical argu
ment could be used against
our present law requiring ben
eficial use of water in order to
retain title to power or irri
gation rights. It could be
truthfully said this law will
prevent people from holding
water rights unless they make
use of them. Hence it re
moves considerable property
from taxation.
But who objects to the law
on that ground? Would it be
ine subject is one of con
cern to the whole state, it is
not a local question for settle
ment by counties in which the
land is located. Yet at the
conference western Oregon
counties containing the land
will have far greater represen
tation than will the rest of the
state. Umatilla county is al
lowed but one delegate.
But the most presumptious
move yet taken consisted in a
suggestion made at a prelimi
nary gathering that a chair
man be selected in advance of
the meeting. Governor Withy
combe is quoted as having said
"I would like to see a conser
vative man made chairman,
for there is danger that radi
calism may predominate."
There is danger of radical
ism, in the view of the East
Oregonlan, but not of the sort
feared by the governor. The
radicalism to be feared is the
radicalism of service to the
railroad at the betrayal of the
people. It is radicalism of the

The notes of the United State.'
government to the nations of Europe
1 1 ave attracted world-wide attention
but Uncle Sam's most Important
notes are addressed to Americans.
Uncle Sam is feeling optimistic and
his notes foreshadow the period of
wonderful prosperity that now Is as
sured to the people of this country.
Every American business man who
carefully studies these notes and
considers the conditions they reflect
and foretell Inevitably must be
inspired with some realization of the
wonderful destiny of the American
reople.
Americans had no part in the
making of the awful dtsaater that has
come upon Europe. They woulc'
sacrifice their own material advan
tage to bring peaie to Europe, but
that is beyond their power. The na
tions of Europe after many years of
distrun now are engaged In the ef
fort to resolve their doubts, and the
war muBt be fought to a definite con
clusion. Americans have not wanted to
prosper at the expense of the Euro
pean people, but Just a the great
war is beyond control so also is the
ordering of the prosperity that now
comes to us. It Is our obligations to
take our opportunities and use them
well for our own sake and for the
sake of civilization.
Never In the world's history was s
ration so favored as the United
States today are favored.
Nature again has taken bountiful
tare for us. The earth is about to
I (five u ten billion dollars in crops.
With the fields of Europe trampled
inder the feet of millions of soldlerf
our crops alone would assure pros
perity. Hut that Is not all. Our steel in
dustry Is working at, or close to, ca
pacity and when the demand for mu
nitions has pawed, Europe will need
our steel to rebuild her cities, her
railroads and her Industries.
At New Bedford the great textile
prosperity which will inflltrat
through every strata of American life.
It Is as certain as any of the known
and tested reactions of chemistry
Americans today are the most fa
vored people on earth.
That is why Uncle Sam after re
viewing the conditions says
"Dress us It won't rain!" From
