"Without or uHth offense to friends or foes I tketch your world exactly as it ypes." BYRON Pharisaical Nationalism In his address at the 175th commencement of Columbia University, Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler declared that false patriotism has produced a nationalism gone mad and has saturated the government at Washington with selfishness and political insincerity. He assailed in particular, big navies, universal military training, super-tariff rates, sub sidies and the special privilege idea in government as ear marks of the "Pharisaical nationalism". Dr. Butler paid high tribute to the founders of the Re publican party as spokesmen for "sagacious and constructive economic policy "but he named no such "spokesman" of the current generation. He declared the former ha now been quietly superseded by the doctrine that the government must assure a profitable domestic market to every producer with political influence enough to insist on having it provided for him, regardless of anything else. He declared: The rising cost of living means nothing. Our new position as a creditor nation means nothing. The economic and financial rebuilding of a war-broken world means nothing. Maintenace and extension of our friendly and helpful International relationships mean nothing. All that matters Is immediate and certain profits for every one through govern ment aid. This Is not patriotism. It is nationalism pure and simple using the arguments and the procedure of socialism, but without the frankness or the courage of that unsound economic philosophy. Dr. Butler liad evidently been reading the theory of the new tariff bill, as outlined by Congressman Hawley and Son ator Smoot. Although he mentioned no names, he painted a true picture of the present administration ,its aims and ideals. Paying his respects to our professional patriots, he asserted : There Is a noisy, clamorous, vain and boastful profession of love of country which stalks abroad in the garments and under the name of patriotism, but which Is In reality something very different. It is crude and vulgar nationalism of the most offensive type. . This is not patriotism but just the opposite gone mad. Nationalism, when the out growth of true patriotism and built upon it. Is a sound and healthful de velopment of the public mind, but when it Is merely a reflection of one's Ignorance of other countries and other peoples and of loudly proclaimed Indifference to them, reinforced by constant reiteration of our own su periority, our own excellence and our own prosperous power, It becomes offensive In the extreme. . . Dr. Butler defined true patriotism as having a moral basis, conceiving the state as having moral personality, with obligations, sympathies and ideals, as looking upon nations as each having its part to play in the making of a continuing and continuous civilization, with the generous cooperation of all. Instead we have the Pharisaical nationalism, that frames public policies as if there were no other members of the human family. Acclaiming international trade and international finan cial interdependence, our pseudo-patriotism proceeds to erect high tariff walls to make both difficult, while permitting private interest to insinuate itself into public policies for selfish profit. The Piper Memorial In his address to the graduating class of Willamette university, Walter W. R. May of the Oregonian announced that friends of the late Edgar B. Piper proposed to establish an endowment fund that will set up a chair of journalism and political economics at the university bearing his name as a memorial to his work. The project is a commendable one for a knowledge of journalism contributes to the cultural background of a col lege of liberal arts. It is to be hoped however, that the course will not be expanded into a school of journalism for there are too many of them already, pouring their graduates by the hundreds into a field of limited opportunities and dimin ishing returns. Few of the products bf these schools of journalism re main long in it those that do would probably have found their way into it and stuck without the college training for journalists are born, rather than made, fitted by tempera ment, mentality and destiny. A great majority of the aspir ants leave college unfitted for much of a career, except perhaps in mechanical superficialities. This is an age of mergers, consolidations and elimina tions of newspapers, as well as other industries and there are fewer and fewer openings and the increasing number of aspirants lower the rewards. The newspaper has been com mercialized as a huge business concern requiring heavy capitalization, and while, as in other industries, there is some opportunity for advancement, it is increasingly slow. Jury Espionage Harry Sinclair has been sentenced to serve a six months' Jn-Ison term, following the expiration of the sentence he Is now serving, for espionage activities upon the jury which .was trying him on the Teapot Dome trial. Here is another instance of the modern tendency to penalize people on other charges than those involved, for the oil magnate was later acquitted by another jury on the fraud charges. The sent ence he is serving is for refusnl to answer the senate com .rnittees question not for bribery in looting the nation's oil preserve. Doubtless the sentence is merited on general principles, but in spying on the jury, Sinclair did no more than the government was doing at the same time, and has done fre quently in the past. It will le remembered that during the land fraud trials in Oregon, W. J. Bums, as chief of the fed eral secret service had a large corps of secret service men spying on every move of the defense. They went even furth er, for they spied upon prospective jurors and saw to it that jonly born convictors were in the trial jury box. The same practice is being continued today in many federal courts. Arthur Sears Hcnning, special correspondent for the Chicago Tribune, in a dispatch to his paper says: In many federal Judicial districts, notable for a high rate of convic tions In prohibition cases, the Jury commissioners are kown to be domi nated by the dry onranltatons. They draw their Juries largely from the rural part of the district and enlist the aid of postmasters In checking vp on the character and affiliations of prospective veniremen. The post masters are Instructed to report church affiliations particularly. Mr. Sinclair then goes to prison for doing for his own Hefense, what the government does for the prosecution. If it is wrong for Sinclair, is it not wrong for the government? Do uch tactics breed respect for the courts or for the lawT Mr. Hoover's law probers might solve this problem.

Fire in San ta Fe Oil Fields Causes Loss Of Million Dollars Los Angeles, Cal. (AP) A fire which broke out Mon day at Santa Fe Springs field near here and had destroyed nine derricks and more than 40,000 barrels of oil, was report ed at 8 a. m. Tuesday by fire department officials to have been confined to two flowing wells. Damage has been placed at more than one million dollars. FOOLISH FADS INCLUDE TEAS Los Angeles (AP) Nine oil derricks and over 40,000 barrels of oil had been destroyed by a fire which proke out late Monday in the Santa Fe Springs field, 12 miles south of this city, and was still burning fiercely at an early hour Tuesday. Damage so far has been conservatively estimated at over a minion ciouars. Asbestos clad firemen worked throughout the night, aided by hun dreds of volunteer fire fighters. The fire started on the Rhode-Mc-Adams lots and was believed to have been caused by oil leaking from a storage tank to a boUer. In a short time the number one weu became flaming geyser with heavy gas discharges igniting and shooting hundreds of feet Into the air. The tire soon leaped to another adja cent well known as the McCune. Both wells had been producing ap proximately 4500 barrels of oil dally. From the McCune well the flames spread to other derricks and by nightfall, Monday night, the sec tion resembled a seething luraace. Unsuccessful efforts were made by the asbestos-clothed firemen to shut off the gas flow In the Rhode McCadam No. 1 well. When fire men, with heavy columns of water being poured on them as they work ed forward, finally reached the mouth of the casing and endeavor ed to close the valve, they found It had been melted by the Intense heat. Capping was then resorted to but without success. Firemen continued their flight early Tuesday clearing away the tangled mass of steel of which the derrick had consisted, and hopes were entertained that during day light the work of capping the blaz ing well might be more successful. Failure however, authorities said, will necessitate tunneling under the fire and smothering the blaze. Thousands were attracted by the tremendous volume of smoke aris ing from the scene of the blazing wells and in a short time those In charge of the fire fighters called for additional aid to clear roads nearby of spectators who were hampering the workers.

VSED Paris, (LP) The parties for petted canines provide smart Paris with its latest lad or diversion. Miss Florence Walton, American dancer retired from the stage to a modest modiste's shop in the most aristocratic shopping center of Paris, Introduced dogs' teas for her prized Pekinese "Chin Chin" and now alt smart Paris Is enter taining dogs. Miss Walton served tea for "Chin Chin" and Invited Mile. Cecil Sorel's Chow "Choctaw," Princess Paucille Latour's great Dane "Lux ury" and the four legged pets of a dozen other women high In Paris society and stage life. While the dogs sit on velvet cush ions and eat tasty cakes or lap up tea-tinted milk, their mistresses sit in an adjoining salon and play bridge. Dogs' teas were to have been expected, for it Is years since rans naa its lirst dogs' bars. The dogs bars are generally out side some of the most famous American bars of the capital, and consist of a fountain where water Is the only fluid available. Miss Walton is also responsible for the wearing of straw blankets by dogs for the same purpose that men wear Panamas. The summer sun in France causes no end of suf fering among dogs, especially the long-haired favorites of the salon which cant run fast enough to keep cool. Miss Walton devised a blanket In pleated straw which her dog wears, the blanket being made Individual with embroidered lnttals. The first blanket created a furore and now there are dozens of them seen ev ery morning in the Bols.

GRAVEL PIT TO BE OPENED AT DULLUN BRIDGE Decision was reached Monday by County Commissioners Smith and Porter and Deputy County Road master Prank Johnson to locate a new gravel pit and rock crustier for the county at Dullun bridge on the Abiqua on property belonging to the Benedictine fathers and a contract has been agreed upon with the crusher to be in charge of Charles Hoyt. It is expected about 8000 yards of gravel will be taken from the pit this year to be used on Improving the market road between Silverton and Monitor. At the same time. It has been de- oided to abandon the Silverton crusher which lias been doing heavy work for some years on the rood work In that vicinity. It will prob ably run only a day or two more. This year already the Silverton crusher has taken out about 6000 yards of gravel all of which has been used on district roads in that neighborhood. The pit there Is get ting pretty well played out and in addition the cost of hauling from the Silverton plant would be exces sive In comparison to hauling from the new pit for the Monitor road. The official party also visited the crusher at Union Hill and inspected work of cutting down a grade near the crusher in that section. Fred Loske is In charge of that work. They also Inspected a new bridge near Stayton. The work on this bridge was finished Tuesday but it will be about eight days before traf fic can pass over It as concrete un derneath must be allowed to set for that length of time before It will be safe to travel over.

Caldwell started to, practice medicine, back in 1875, the needs for a laxative were not as great as they are today. People liv ed normal, quite lives, ate plain, wholesome food, and got plenty ol fresh air and sunshine. But even that early there were drastic physics j and purges for the relief of con-1 stlpation which Dr. Caldwell did not believe were good for human beings to put Into their system. So he wrote a prescription for a laxative to be used by his patients. The nrescrlntlon for constipation that he used early in his practice, and which he put In drug stores in 1892 under the name of Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin, is a liquid veg etable remedy, Intended for women emmren ana emeny peopie. ana they need just such a mild, safe, gentle bowel stimulant as Syrup Pepsin. Under successful management this prescription has proven its worth and Is now the largest selling liquid laxative in the world. The fact that millions of bottles are used a year proves that it has won the confi dence of people who needed it to get relief from headaches, bill loudness, flatulence, Indigestion, loss of ap petite and sleep, bad breath, dyspep sia, colds and fevers.
