We would then have justice administered more thoroughly in accord with the law and the evidence. Have you ever thought about it? THE FUTILITY OF THE STANDPATERS THE DISTANT JUROR 3T is noticeable that when federal court cases are tried here and the cases arise in Umatilla county the federal prosecutor will avoid taking Umatilla county jurors. It is also noticable that fed eral prosecutions almost invari ably result in convictions. In otber words when there is evi dence to warrant conviction the jury convicts. Beyond question there is a relationship between the use of outside jurymen and the re sults obtained by the govern ment prosecutors. The out side juror is free from local af filiations of any sort. He does not know the defendant or the defendant's lawyers or his friends. He will not have to reside among them in the fu ture and hence is in position to take the cold blooded attitude the ideal juror is supposed to manifest. State cases could also be tried on this same basis were it possible to use jurors from other counties. In reality all local cases should be tried be fore jurors brought in from other counties and Umatilla county jurymen should be HE cry is frequently heard OL these days, particularly from standpatters, that the United States must get in to shape for stiff competition from Europe when the war is ended. German competition is particularly feared because the Germans are tremenduously efficient. Now it so happens that Ger man efficiency, in business as in war, is not due solely to the ability and intelligence of the German people, but also to the fact Germany in many ways follows a policy of state social ism. The German government indulges directly in some lines of industry and business with consequent gain to the empire ind the people as a whole. The inference is plain that it this country would prepare to face industrial competition from such a nation it would be wise to imitate some of the Ger man methods. The Wilson ad ministration is working along this very line in its advocacy of the ship purchase bill and the establishment of a govern ment armor plant. Those pro posals are up-to-date and if carried out will give us footing on the road we must travel if we are to hold our own. Yet strange to say the very element that talks so much about the necessity of being awake to foreign competition following the war, objects most vociferiously to these adminis tration measures. The ship bill and the armor factory bill are bitterly condemned by our tories as socialistic. The standpatters say we must prepare to bag big game when the war is over but they insist we shall hunt only with old time rifle and shot gun jwhen the need is for the mod lern weapon of government ac tion even if the pattern be so cialistic. We will not reach success by following the stand Datter who never thinks as much of the country's welfare j as he does of the special inter jests with which he is con nected. i THE SLIDE REMOVED BESSIE BARRISCALE in " THE IV rlVE -ACI MUTUAL MAS 11 SOUL 1 PICTURE Pastime Tuesday ami Wlmsday. 3F an informal prediction made by Colonel Goethals proves correct the Pana ma canal will be opened for traffic in five days time, April 15. It is also believed the Elide trouble will be perma nently cured though on this point there seems to be some j question. At any rate there is ! every indication the canal will jbe open during the rest of the jyear which will be welcome news to farmers. The use of the canal means considerable !to the price of wheat, or would if shipping conditions were at all normal. With charters so high, even between Atlantic ports and Europe, there is doubt as to just how much good the canal will accomplish this year. The ship owners seem bent on making a million dollars a month more or less on every craft afloat, there fore they may decide to ab sorb the benefits of the canal for themselves. If the canal is open, however, no one can blame high charters on defects in the waterway. SENATOR SHERMAN fipfc Illinois has always been o hiiav aVictiitar -fne "strong action" toward Mexi co. It was he who following the Villa raid on Columbus proposed that the United States prepare an army of 500,000 for the invasion of Mexico and of course for the conquest of that country with whose gov ernment this nation has no quarrel. It is significant that this i gentleman who has no regard for the national rights of the people of Mexico is lamentably weak in support of our own rights upon the high seas. He recently wrote a professor in the University of Chicago say ing that Americans who cross the ocean on belligerent ships are impudent Americans who have no right to expect their country's protection This despite the fact interna tional law does not sanction the sinking of passenger ships, even of belligerent nations, without giving warning and regardless of the fact figures show that 400,000 people crossed the Atlantic to and from America during 1915. Most of this travel is aboard belligerent ships because there f re few American ships on the run. Most of the travel is doubtless legitimate and not for pleasure or even in con nection with the war. It is necessary travel, not the re sults of foolhardiness at all. Senator Sherman is valor ous in desiring to overrun and subjugate a little misery stricken sister republic whose government shows a fair and friendly spirit toward our own but he has no nerve when it comes to the important sub ject where American rights upon the ocean are involved and a formidable nation is at the other end of the question. His words do not have the manly, American ring. 350 Italians Captured. BERLIN. April 10. (By wireless to Tuckerton, N.

PAIGE XfaStandkudofVdugandQjialify Do These Facts Mean Anything To You? 1. During the month of March which was distinctly a winter month in most sections of the country the American people bought 1200 Paige "Fairlields" and paid for them one million, five hundred and fifty our thousand dollars. 2. At the time this advertisement is written, every sin gle dealer in the Paige sales organization has attempted to increase his regular allotment of cars. 3. Many Paige distributors have already sold their entire April allotments of the Fairfield "Six-46" and are now taking special allotments as fast as we can supply them. Just read these three paragraphs over again and dis cover for yourself the real significance of such overwhelming demand for one motor car. We don't suggest that you merely "follow the crowd." We don't suggest that you be influenced by any other con sideration than your own personal preference. But we do maintain that there must be an intelligent reason for such nation-wide indorsement of the Paige Fair field "Six-46." We want you to discover that reason. A visit to the Paige dealer will, undoubtedly, put you on the right track. But don't delay too long, please. See this car while "immediate deliveries" are still possible.
