March 10, 1021 May He Folio w it The words of Holy Writ upon which President Harding placed his lips as he took the oath of office, were from the 8th verse of the Oth chapter of the prophet Micah. These read : “ He hath showed thee, () man, what is good; and what doth the Lord require ot thee, hut to do justly, him ! to love mercy, and to walk humhlv w'ith thy God?“ If President Harding acts on this admonition, he won’t go far wrong. For a man who consis tently does this, will be guided aright. He may not have learn ing or statesmanship, but he will be granted a wisdom of under standing when great crises arise. One of the best examples is fur nished by Lincoln who did justly, loved mercy and walked humhlv with hisji Jo I. No one will deny lhat he exhibited in those peri lous times, a wisdom which was due neither to scholarship nor statesmanship of the diplomats. It was of a higher order and ev ident^ inspired. 'The inaugural address of Pres ident Harding, has met with universal approbation. The principles enuniciated are sound, ami there was nothing in it to which any objection could be taken by am reasonable person. If he follows along the lines I e has indicated, his administration will prove conservative, practical and beneficial. Irrespective of party there will he universa! regret at thè passing of Chatnp f’Iark. former speaker of thè house of representatives in congress. His death is not only a io>s to bis party % but to thè nation as well. l)own around Panama they Started a few fireworks, but Sec retary of State Hughes put a damper on further proceedings.

For nearly two years she has been jockeying and bluffing, until at last the al lies have lost patience. Now perhaps Germany will under stand that the bills must be paid, especially as the American troups will not lie withdrawn. If Ger many w ill accept the situation and show a willingness to pay for the damage she has done, it is probable that more lenient terms will be granted. Her eco nomic ruin would not benefit anyone but the reverse. If Ger many would follow the advice of Count Bernstorff th? former am bassador to the U. S., and culti vate friendly relationships with France, it would ease the situa tion considerably. Great Britain has no desire to crush Germany, but she must stand by France, who viewing her ruined cities and desolated villages and fields, and sensing another future con- 11u*t with her former foe, natur ally wants to take no chances. If this danger was eliminated, nothing would serve better the cause of peace, not only in Ft - rope, but in the world. The correct estimate of the former President’s policies will not he ascertained (mHl about 25 years have passed. 1 may prove in some particulars, the League of Nations, for instance, he w*as ahead of his times. National geographical lines are fast dis appearing- in world affairs, and no nation can stand for long alone. The world has entered a new era of development, in which the old order must yield place to the new. This is not of man’s de sign or volition but of God, wh<? “ fulfills Himself in many ways, lest one good custom should cor rupt the world." In a letter • enclosing check for - renewal to the N ews , r. N. Gadenau writes from Terre* bonne, Oregon, “ We could not get along without it in this coun- trv, for we get all the rnnvs from Estacada and surrounding coun try.’’ For which commendation the editor begs to express his thankful appreciation to Mr. C l L*mut. The physical condition of form er President Wilson, is such that even his most bitter political enemy should feel some sympa thy for him. He may well count himself one of the war victims.
