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,
