No Loss of Life Reported Eut 20 to 30 Families Have Not Been Heard From; Believed Short of Food and Supplies RESPONDING TO THE EMERGENCY TARIFF R EPRESENtATIVE FORDNEY'S and Senator McCum- ber s Emergency Tariff Bill may be making doubtful pro gress in congress but there is no auestion about the heart iness of the response it is stirring up abroad. What Canada will do if the bill is ever enacted has alreadv leen indicated. Our exports to that country consist-xhiefly of mouuiauuira ut cuiupeuuun wun rsmisn gooas ana amounted Jast year to almost 900,000,000. Nothing would be easier for Canada than to increase the tariff taxes against the United States in preferential favor of Great Britain, and this would un doubtedly be done. Our best customer in South America is .-.rgentma, which took $167,000,000 worth of good3 from us last rear, and the Argentine parliament is ready for responsive ac tion in the shape of a bill for a 40 per cent ta on imports from the United States or any other country increasing duties on im ports from Argentina. "With our great supplies of raw mate rial, says tne Deputy introducing this bill, "we can go to any. iiitti net m uie worm on a iirm looting. That is a response which Brazil, Chili and other South Amer ican countries can and doubtless will make. Action of the kind oy-congress on a fake "emergency" would create a real emer gency for them which they would be obliged to notice. There is a remaining wide circle of good customers of the United States ho would also have a real emergency forced upon them, anr we may expect to hear from them all in good time. i What could be more encouraging to the restorers of Ameri can tariff normalcy? With all of the world's markets primed and ready for retaliatory measures against American goods, the "emergency" doctors of the senate may well be moved to call for another cloture Vote and jam their bill through as soon as possible New York World. NO CANCELLATION SO Uncle Sam is being pictured as a loan shark because he want Eurtpean nations to repay him the money loaned during the war. At the time the money was borrowed your Uncle was not so pictured. This assumption that loans made by America should be cancelled is about the most nervy suggestion j et heard. It is a poor way to treat the nation that tame to the front in the nick of time in order to save civilization. There may be a feeling in Europe that money grows on bushes in America and that the United States can cancel its loans and never miss the coin. As a matter of fact our govern ment borrowed the money that was loaned to Europe and must some day take up its own bonds. If Europe does not pay the American taxpayer and consumer must foot the bill. Therefore the European proposal is that private individuals in the United States, of all walks and stations, assume a burden that plainly belongs on the people of Europe. It i3 a line of action the Amer l. an people may justly decline with thanks. If England wants some country to pay its war debt let them look to the country that started the war. The kaiser is a good wood cutter; keep him busy. GOING UP, NOT DOWN FRANKLIN H. GIDDINGS, a professor in Columbia Uni versity, refuses to accept the view" held by some people ' that this is a very wicked age and is daily growing worse. Professor Giddings believes that "present day morals are neither substantially higher nor lower than they were one or two generations ago and he quotes the remark of a former pub lic official that "we have always1been going to "the dogs and here we are today." The Giddings error is that he is too pessimistic. There is j ood ground for the belief that moral standards are higher than they were a generation or so ago. There has assuredly been a .substantial advancement in the last 20 years at least in the west. Human nature has not changed, it is true, but society has be come more particular in its requirements. Discouraged folk of course will point to extreme styles of feminine dress as a sign of nresent dav dpnravitv Vor thoo etyles whatever their faults may be are more modest than Cleo patra's. There is less room for complaint than there was in Babylon if news accounts of that day may be relied upon. So nai can you ten about styles? I'ORT AXOKI.ES, Wash., Feb, D.

WOMEN MEN AtMintE Men admire .a pretty face, a good figure, but most of all . the happy, healthy, contented woman, as beauty fades and the figure will change. Women nho are troubled with back ache, headaches, those dreajjfiil drag ging sensations, and nervous Irritabil ity, cannot hope to be popular, and ad vancement in. either home, business or social life is Impossible. The cause of these troubles, however, yields quickly to Lvdta E. I'lnkham's Vege table Compound, as it Is a natural res. toratlve for such conditions, and dla pels effectually all those distressing symptoms. rr I A DEMAND OF THE DAY F it be true that 5000 electric horse power can be made to operate a single track railroad for a distance of 100 miles, the O. W. R. & N. company and other lines aa well ran yet all the power they need from Umatilla rapids That power should be used It is provided by the sun, the moon and the mountains and the Columbia charges nothing for running down lull Our water power is inexhaustible, whereas the coal supply is being depleted. By using coal for railroad operatfon we draw on our capital; if trejuse water power we save our capital re source and make use of energy now totally wasted. That the railroads of the northwest r.hould bo electrified is the truest thing in American economic life today. iRUISES-SPRAINS & Alternate applications hot ana f cold cloths then TP1- V VacoRub Off I?
