OREGON WEATHER Tonight fair; light front east f portion; Tuesday fair, light easterly winds. The assigning of a few socialists and peace advocates to positions of re stricted power is a blind pure and simple, a ruse designed by the kaiser to save the face of royalty. Not un til the huge guns of Pershing blasts the maw of militarism and obliter ates tyranny and autocracy can a permanent peace be established. "I have decided," says the kaiser, 'to once again offer peace to the enemy. Very considerate or you. Bill, but you must have your fire- bath yet; you have befouled yourself to such an extent that even the con suming fires of hell cannot cleanse your soul.
