Washing ton is a splendid state and it will al a-ays hold a high place in our estim ation. It has wonderful soil, a very good climate in most parts, rich na tural resources. It is progressive, wealthy, beautiful. It is not a cold country, but then norther.sters have a way of howling down the old Colum bia Gorge with a vim that sends the chills chasing each other up and down the spinal column. The weather for that country was ideal and the old timers were enjoy ing it immensely, but for us, softened under the summer suns o f Coos, it had a penetration and crispness that was far from enjoyable.

Fryatt, master of the British merchant ship, Brussels, who was murdered by the Germans, would guide the pen that writes the peace terms for Germans, they would get the peace that comps to thugs, thieves, liars, rapists and murderers. It is stated that a large number of the hotel men o f France have made an agreement that they will not hire a German or have a German customer for ten yeare. The German will find that he is branded all over with the brand of Cain. The “ made in Ger many’’ brand means now made for home consumption- The German henceforth will have to feed on his own brands and goods, for the rest of the world his “ brands and his “ goods” are the poison o f vipers.
