Thursday Jan. 1 1916 : PRAISE FRQM HIS ENEMIES In some states the attempt to place Roosevelt's name upon the ticket for presidential nominee has been met by his refusal to run, His early positjqn upon the foreign policy that; shpuld be -Adopted has no douqtcnstalizeda sentiment throughout the coun try in favor of protecting Ameri can lives abroad. He early con. demned the idea, as un-Ameri can, that our citizens ought to stay at home,' or' take thejr oun chances in traveling the seas. He vigorously denounced the Wil son Mexican policy, wherein an American must flee from. that country, or take his own chances jf he remained there. Some pa- uers throughout the country that jm ridiculed Mr. Roosevelt now praise him for the position he jia3 tuken in these matters. The Oregonian is one of these papers, and in giving voice to the follow ing, it sweeps aside all its former utterances about Roosevelt and pays this tribute to him: ' "Roosevelt as president would have had a clear and kno?,'n pol icyan American policy and he would have notified the world when America stands and what would be done to guarantee its rights as a neutral. He would have Hot the country ready for even j ualities. That would have been liis way of preventing war, and it doubtlesu would have been effec tive, without the loss of tfie Lus itania, or. any other vessel, as the deliberate act of 1 any power which chose to ignore the fact that the rights of non-combatants in pertain' situations are para mount 10 tne rights 01 belliger ents. President Wilson waits fpr a Lusitania'to "te destroyed, and then takes the line of least resis tance in adjusting the resulant complications." . All this gpes to 'show' thaf 8 man may, by bis fearless posi tion, gain many friends. How do the other likely candidates stand on the theory that a gov ernment should protect its citi zens, no matter where that citi: zen might be? Perhaps we shall learn early enough, to, form an opinion upon the merits or de merits of thejr candidacy. Their popularity will no doubt depend latgely upon their fqreign pqjicy. LETTER WRITING WEEK Letter Writing week ought to appeal to every pitizen of Ore gon. It is not as many suppose a scheme to get settlers to come to our state, but rather a scheme tu encourage the pleasure seeker or persons of means to see Oregon's wonderful sights. Nature has done her work well in Oregon and the worst skeptic living ought to get his money's worth in viewing Nature's handiwork. Sight-seers in Los Angeles the past season left upwards of fifty million dollars there, and about the same amount in Ban Francis, co. There must have been targe amounts left in other places by the traveling public. The idea of the letter writing proposition is to encourage travel to come this way and leave a trail of money behind them, thus enriching our circulation by several million dol lars. This is an opportune time for this purpose from the fact that travel to and from Europe for pleasure has almost ceased. This class will travel; why not come this way.' Then there is the other elnss who have not been in the habit of gojng tq Europe, but who nevertheless gp somewhere each summer. The object is to reach as many of these people as possible with vivid word pictures of our matchless sqenery. The; sqnooi emipren wii oe especial. y appealed to to write letters. There will be descriptions of various places sent out as guides for the letter writers, and it is hoped that this scheme will be taken hoM of with a good will that Will insure a success of it. A list of parties written to will be kept, and the railroads will follow up the letters wifh further inducements. MORE TAX We understand that President Wilson and Secretary McAdoo have recommended a stamp tax on "bank checks'' as a means of raising more revenue for the government. If this is liable to be .taken seriously by Cpngress, and no dqubt it will be., then there should be protests poured in from alj sides iri an endeavor to, discourage the adaption of such a law.. Among the many industries that would be affected in this state would be the dairy indus try, from the fapt that ' the creameries pay their patrons with cheeks that range anywhere from one dollar on up into hun dreds. These checks are issued mostly . twice a month, The farmer who expresses his cream now pays revenue on each can. It seems as though during the Wilson administration that the farmer had been the Jjutt of all pernicious acts. Not only must he compete with foreign countries under free trade, but he must pay extra revenue to make up for the revenue lost because of it, The rerenue stamp upon a check would be only a small thing of itself, but in the course of year it would amount to consid erable and as usual in such cases the pric3 of a revenue stamp would come out of the pay che.'k, CUT OUT THIS COUPON IT IS GOOD FOR 3 CENTS on the purchase price pf a 10' cent leaf of HOLSUM BREAD .
