American Money And The War
Chests
intoiulciit's ami is the Imlustrial
; Worker of tho State.
Datks Fok Si'i'T. Skymiu'k:
Some of the wealth worshipers
have taken up the cudgels
against the aetions of President
Wilson in Minifying his disap
proval of the proposed Morgan
h:uis on tlie ground that it is
Morgan's business to do as seems
he st to Morgan's judgment with
Morgan's money.
That is all very good in a
way, hut the President's proposi
tion was very clearly stated.
The foree of the private business
argument was recognized, hut
the fact of loaning American
moury to capitalists in belliger
ent Europe was likely to lead to
developments which would make
that argument inconsequential
The bettor way. the more hu
mane way, and the uhs'dim ly
neutral way would be to let
Kurope iiirht it out on her own
rt-Miurees. In that cour-e there
could be no charge of favoritism,
and the duration of hostilities
would he lessened rather than
extended.
The fact that the matter was
submitted for the .President's
approval is proof enough that
the New York bankers had
doubts of its propriety.
In this connection it will oc
cur to the average American to
ask this question: What is the
matter that Morgan's money
cannot be used at home in the
promotion of industry to great
er profit than it can he used
abroad in the activities of war?
If Morgan's coffers and other
banking coffers are overflown);;,
and there could be ready and
large shipments for the support
of the stupendous lighting game
abroad, why should there not he
profitable use for that sune
money in this country, with the
opportunities to improve that
this war has handed over to us?
It would seem to be not only
good statesmanship but go'od
business to-turn such surplus in
to American enterprise. Telegram.

"The Dogs Cf War"
Already the European war i
the greatest in history, consider
ing the number of nations in
volved and their modernized
power to destroy.
Its cause was as trivial as its
progress has been swift and
terrible. It is the logical result
of the militant growth and
rivalry of the European powers.
The murder of an Austrian
archduke and his wife by half
baked .Servian zealots was im
portant only as providing a
spark for the huge bonfire which
Mars has long been piling.
Strangely enough the war is
popular among the masses, if
one may believe the reports of
patriotic fervor in the several
capitals. The Socialists quite
rightfully denounced it as a war
between rulers rather than be-
Wets Fear Oregon Go Dry
Liquor dealers of the country
have sent out an impassioned ap
peal all over the country to keep
Oregon wet. They express the
opinion that Oregon and Virginia
are the only states likely to vote
dry.
The Committee of One Hun
dred, the' organization of busi
ness men of Oregon fighting for
a dry state, has received a copy
of Bonfort's Wine and Spirit
Circular, one of the official organs
of the liquor dealers,, under date
of August 10. It says:
"The information received
from the battlegrounds of Cali
fornia, Oregon, Washington,
Colorado and Virginia, where
statewide elections on the prohi
bition question will Ik? held this
Fall, would seem to indicate that
all save Oregon are reasonably
safe, although some doubt is ex
pressed in regard "to Virginia."
The Circular says the National
organization of liquor dealers
should center work on Oregon
and Virginia.
From reliable information it
would seem that the wet forces
plan to spend about $100,000 on
