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

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 ..

his lines and to abandon the offensive.
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
