Inde nandant of thla feature, however, I am opposed to Importation tor a sum' ber of reasons. In the first place. they cause the sending away of a con siderable amount of Oregon money. but the more aerloua feature la that the bootlegger la enabled under the present system of Importation to ac quire two full quarts ot alcohol per month, and then by acquiring two quarts more locally, he can manufac ture enough Imitation whisky to carry on a thriving bootlegging business throughout the month. VMy experience as district attorney la ahowlng to me that alcohol sales by the druggists, and the Importations. hen taken together, afford the boot- lacaer an adequate source of supply, and with the exception of a few sa loon stocks. It la the only source of supply' available to the oootlegger. Tha saloon stocks In the end will be axhsusted, and ought not In the long run be a very Important factor In the enforcement of the law. "Tou may be Interested In knowing that I have now under consideration an injunction proceeding in which I wiU seek to enjoin the Pendleton druggist from the sale of alcohol upon the ground that the aald sale are unconstitutional, and constitute a public nuisance. "If the prohibition law la to he amended by the next legislature, the amendment ought td Include a pro vision to the effect that where liquor haa been aiexed. all thereof that haa been used In violation of law, and in addition all thereof that haa been stored ur connection -wrrn-tne -liquor so used, shsll be forfeited and de- stroyed. The law now provides In ef fect that the court shall order de stroyed all liquor which be finds haa been used for unlawful purpose. Thla portion of the statute has been construed in cases presented by me to mean that the court shall order de stroyed only such liquor ss was di rectly used In the violation of the law. Unopened packages, therefore, and unopened barrels, under the con struction made, cannot be molested. do not know whether the law haa been differently construed In other Jurisdictions or not. but Inasmuch as the law is not perfectly clear, it will be a distinct -help to district attorneys If the statute Is slightly amended." erult ISS.OSS new men yearly, flrlt ain alone could add I.SOO.oo men to Its army without reducing the volume of Its munition output and of Its for eign trail a. There Is no practical limit to the millions Russia ran pour forth except the ability to arm and equip them.

A GREAT MAX. The country may feel confident that President Wilson will not lose his head in the new troubles which the Mexican hornet's nest is bringing up on him, says the Oregon Journal. We may depend upon him to keep calm and guide his conduct by bis judg ment. It to easy to follow the lead ership of passion. Common men do nothing else. But Mr. Wilson Is not a common man. He Is great both in his- power of thought snd his deliberate action. Surrounded as he is by a thousand conflicting interests each of which seeks to bend him to Its will, he In vestigates for himself, uses his own intelligence snd follows his own con scientious Judgment. The petty creatures whose plans are baffled by his wise counsels rail and Jeer at him. But so they railed and Jeered at Washington and Lin coln. The president who prefers the lasting welfare of the country to the clamorous Interest of the present is always made to suffer for it. But in the long run history does him Justice. Mr. Wilson Is earning a place among our greatest presidents by his serene wisdom in this tint of excitement and peril. As President Wilson is urging co operation in business, we sre resdy and willing to cooperate with Standard Oil The Fish Ladder tn Place. After having been practically ruin ed as a trout stream for ths dozen years or mors by reason of an obstruction In the Hudson Hay coun try known ' as Pine 'creek falls. Pine creek has at last been opened the finny tribe through the good work of Warden George Tonkin and Deputy Jack Vincent. Following Warden Tonkin's order that a fish ladder must be put In by the Hudson Bay farmers responsible for the obstruction. Deputy Vincent went down there laat week to that It was obeyed and to supervise the work. The ladder Is now in place and Is of sufficient dimensions to so commodate the largest salmon. It is of regulation make, with 4x4 boxes three feet deep, and with Jumps of but one foot between each box. Although outside of his jurisdic tion. Mr. Vincent went over Into Washington while on hl trip, and found that Pine creek Is practically unobstructed there, so that there will be nothing in the way of whatever fish that may desire to make this stream their habitat. The late spring run of salmon is not completed, snd some of them may yet ascend to Wes ton and above. However, local ang lers expect tn derive their chief sport next season from the opening of the stream .. IS 10 27 8 6 COUNTING IXS8E8 OF ARMIES.

The result is a mass of figures which merely bewilders but which, is largely based on estimates. The events of the war and the known facts of the present time Jus tify certain general conclusions with out wearying our brains with many figures. Since the Germans have been constantly engaged on both the French and Russian fronts, their losses must have exceeded those of France. though the great numbers of Russian prisoners they and the Austrtans have taken will surely swell ths total Rus sian loss to an equality with, If not to an excess over the German. Austria tost enormously In the first nine months of the war and has suffered a steady drain on the Russian and Italian fronts. Turkey lost men by tens of thousands in the first and the present Asiatic campaigns and lost heavily In the Gallipoll campaign. The advantage of the allies consists more In their superior ability to mske good their losses than In any greater losses they may have inflicted on their trzule mark j umI ty rlirtiU M4irsJ otm fit, ftcrttj inotlft, gt?rUst nr photo aUrf 4.
