If at any time we were in

fails to work. In this instance
it is not a bluff only and Japan
will doubtless try to enforce her
demand by force of arms.
Turkey, Italy ana Greece are
near the breaking point and it is
expected that Turkey will cast
her lot in with Germany in
which cae there will he twelve
nations lighting against three.
This is great odds but before the
trouble is settled there will he

life and the enormous destruc

these countries will be u long

About the War News
News reports of the European
war are unsatisfactory in many
ways and necessarily so. The
news is all censored and it is for
the most part biased. It comes
almost entirely from anti-Ger-man-Austra
sources and is there
fore to be weighed with this
knowledge in view. Yet the re
ports received in this country
are not fictitious as some sup
pose. The United Press secures
voluminous reports by cable
from the old country and the
news is based on facts. The
point to be borne in mind by the
reader is that while the news re
ports deal with actual events as
they happen the reports are
generally given out with a view
to presenting the struggle in the
most favorable light possible for
this country or that country
usually for the allies because
Germany is cut off from com
munication. Another feature
which the reader should remem
ber is that in this war struggles
in which small bodies of troops
are engaged are of slight con
sequence. A force of 10,000
men is nothing in the present
war game with millions of men
in the field. Doubtless petty
victorys are being won by both
sides. It is generally predicted
that in the near future a great
interests; that he would divest
himself of all financial relation
ship which in any way might
give rise to the suspicion of any
motive save the desire to serve.
It has been estimated that Mr.
Warburg's income from these
activities and interests he re
nounces was something like
.t:ltO,000 a year. I lis salary will
be .112.000 a year.
It is a fine example that this
eminent man of finance presents.
The application of it is not con
fined to the consideration of men
and motives in high oflice. It
is pertinent to every branch of
the public service from the
highest to the lowest. It is
idealism made practical by this
man of money. It is a new ex
emplification of the great moral
truth that it is better to give
than to receive better to serve
than to be served.
If it were the custom to seek
office upon the sole conviction
that there was ability to serve,
and as holding the public good
above private advantage, what
an ideal system of government
we soon would have from town
ship to National administration!
The country has need of the
tribe of Warburgs; and we may
at least hope that it will multi

In and out of the company's
Oakland Pier terminal, which is
on the Western division, there
are over a thousand trains a day
to serve the public. This is more
trains in and out the terminal
than any other one railroad in the
world can claim. All the wash
outs and other troubles Spring
gave the railroads are things of
the past, of course; hence, in
creased efficiency in trains keep
ing up with the schedules. The

most convenient, made one of the
best records for through trains,
in her report for Los Angeles and
San Francisco terminals.
Chinese Exhibit
For the first time in the history
of China that nation will have
machinery exhibits at a world
exposition when the Panama
Pacific International Exposition
opens in 1915. China has asked
and has been granted 2,000 square
feet in the Palace of Machinery,
the largest of the exposition
structures. Workmen have been
at work for several weeks on the
Chinese pavilion on the exposition
grounds and the structure prom
ises to be one of the most inter

represent forty foreign nations.
