OUR WRETCHED PEACE
'TfN the past year Umatilla
j county wealth has increas
ed to the extent of one
million dollars, according to
the assessor's figures. The
ac Li make another chapter to
our tale of prosperity as re
flected in high prices for
vhcat, wool and other pro
tects and in rising bank de-
These degraded, pusillani
mous Wilson times have some
redeeming features.
TRY SOME PLACE ELSE
'HE county judges and
commissioners in their
state meeting recom
ifjjendcd the repeal of the wid
ow a paiaion law and the sub
heavily. There the spokes would be
concentrated so thickly that they
might be shot away in great numbers.
Besides, the sub and axle must be well
protected. Therefore the center of
each wheel would be a mass of armor
as thick as that of a battle cruiser.
"The two front wheels of this war
machine would have to be space!
about three hundred feet apart. They
would have a tread about twenty feet
wide In other words, about as wide
as an ordinary room. I would make
them of steel plates 4 inches thick,
bolted together in sections.
"Since the machine is to destroy by
virtue of its inherent energy and not
by means of guns, It would have a
comparatively small car a car which
would not rise above the tops of the
front wheels, which would be heavily
armored, and which would serve pri
marily as a housing for the enjflnea.
The crew would be small not tnre
than perhaps thirty men.
"I am full aware that the problem
of obtaining engines which will give
this war machine a speed of one hun
dred miles an hour is not easily solv
ed. But if thousands of horse power
can be developed by the engines
pitching and rolling battleships, It Is
not unreasonable to suppose that com
petent engineers can be found to de
sign and build steam engines of twen
ty thousand horse-power, fed by oil
fired boilers."
