FRANCE AND RUSSIA. The wild enthusiasm which the French are exhibiting over their Rus sian visitors merely proves that the French are as exclteable and as mer curlal as ever. That is all. There Is nothing political In the incident. It merely goes to show that French en thusiasts who nurse hopes of the re covery of Alsace and Lorraine through a war with Germany would be glad to have Russlu help them In the enter prise. Hut If IUiKsIa did not see he- way to take sides when Alsace and Lorraine were conquered, and when word from St. Petersburg would have compelled Bismarck to pause, It Ib hardly likely that the Czar would do so now when the work of reconqucst would be so dllllcult. There must be statesmen at St. Pe icraourg wno realize that, with one Blngle exception, the military history of Russia in the nineteenth century has been a uniform record of failure and humiliation. Russia has nothing to boast of In the military operations that led to the peace of Tilsit. Paris wus twice occupied and France subjugated by a confederacy, of which Russia was a leading member; but the glory of the first success belongs to Prussia, ,md the second to England. Little fume was won by Russia when she in' tcrfered on tho side of Austria in her quarrel with Hungary in 1848. How unwise the step was Austria's pusilla nimous auuuoe in the Crimean was demonstrated. In 1S70 Russia could have saved France by moving, a single nrmy corps to tho Vistula; she held her hand, and lilsmarck charade.!.-, it cully requited her by robbing her of the fruits of the campaign of 1SV8 at me i'uiiKit.- ui juernn, whether t le has taken up arms or rofi. ed to take them up, the result has been tho same story of discomfiture and dis appointment. Tho expulsion of the Freneh from Russia after the burning of Moscow is the only page In the his tory of (he nineteenth century to which a patriotic Russian can refer with com placency. The present French fraternization with Russia Is a mere ebullition of a crae which will probably be transi tory. There is nothing in common be tween Russians and Frenchmen. Their characteristics differ as widely as their alms. They have no auinlty whatso ever. They ore not even nWghUors. All through history It has been the misfortune of the French to cherish wild dreams of military glory which led to unJuBtlllable projects of con quest. Theae generally culminated in the defeat of the would-be conqueror, und the French, Instead of acquiescing giaoefully to the defeat, nursed puerile wcheims of revenge. For forty years It was th hope1 ot every Frenchman to avenga the defeat of Waterloo, but when Franc did take up arms she did o In concert with her herldltary foe. During those, forty years France loved Russia and hated England; when she did draw the sword It was against Rus sia and by the side of England that the weapon wa drawn. Tho I'ortland Evening; Telegram has .i.t .r (It piiyr trvulle a waier l.igvd, rat-lnftsted scow, and, as the vi.ly Moifelt standi at the rudder and gazes on the wreck, ho doesn't seem to be particularly careful about what he snys. Adversity has turned the poor man's brain, and editorial comment that was only wallowing slush before, now becomes a swiftly flowing brook of sparkling Insanity. This statement U-n't exactly the most magnificent blank vers? of the century, but it's true. THE SUNDAY CLANCl. "They ring the church bells so long at Lebanon," says the Oregonlan, "that the Express wants an ordinance pasties providing punishment for ringing one longer than one minute." Some day, when we get civilized, this hideous clanging of rival church bells will be stopped. It Is a custom that pprlnga from a barbaric symbolism anyhow, but It can be forgiven when the bells are sweet chimed and melo dious. In most of our country towns, however, they strike on the tympanum of the listener with a wheezy clang re sembling nothing so much as a herd of cats In a pile of kerosene tins. We remember how In the city of Hongkong six years ago tho British government ordered the bells of a large Episcopal church to be dismounted on represen tatlons made by the directorate of an adjoining hospital that their clamor was absolutely dangerous to the pa tlents. If any of Astoria's citizens made one. third of the noise in their back yardH on a week day that some of our church bells do on Sundays, they would be promptly arrested and fined for dis- urblng the peace. We hope that the gentlemen whose duly It Is to manipulate the bell ropes of their churches on the Sabbath day will remember tne heartbreaking wan of the cracked boiler tubes In the tow er, and pull gently. "The Oregon Bar Association," says the Statesman, "has decided to inves tigate the moral conduct and past rec ord of candidates for admission to the bar, and to endeavor, to keep out law- yers expelled from other states." m u. iiiuvu umi Di.uum i.uvc ui-cii made years ago. But it does not go . . i, u , , v. . . i far enough. It should be made to read thut the association shall investigate the moral conduct and the records of Oregon attorneys up to date', and not only to keep out lawyers expelled from ether states, but to expel lawyers from this state if their work Is shady. There Is no more honorable) profession than that of the attorney, and the man who follows that profession, and who pan- ders to every low, dirty trick to catch a dollar, Is a black disgrace to a body nr nn.n uhn nro In tho mnln nno nf ...

Why don't the Im mense body of the subscribers of the Evening Telegram get up a dime con tilbution list and send $Ioffett away till 1934 "to recover hlsself ?" In the balmy regions of Patagonia, and sur- icundei on every hand by nature's moBt glorious handiwork, could we n.t reasonably hope that one so young and so lovely personally, could gradually recover his mental strength, and woo l-ack from the gentle zephyrs a small chunk of bruin?
