JUGGLING WORDS.
It is strange how some papers at
tempt to twist things around for po
litical effect .In nearly every instance
though, so far, it has fallen flat" The
Pendleton East Oregonian tells very
effectively of such a case:
Trying to be scornful an eastern
newspaper refers to the Democratic
party as the "pacifist party." Just how
much reproach is carried in the fling
depends upon the meaning of 'pa
cifist" .
If all who do not wish to see the
country involved in war or have nc
over-consuming desire to face bullet:'
are pafifists, it might be good politka
strategy for the Democrats to fly tht
peaceful flag. Down on the bordei
there are some SO or 100regiments o!
national guardsmen and as a rule they
are recruited to about one-half tin
war strength.
Though' earnestly calling for re
crults, these regiments are not getting
tflem very fast. At the present tinu
out of some 100,000,000 people in tin
United Slates, about 98,900,000 hav.
entirely retrained from going to the
front.. The figures may mean nothing
but it is not far-fetched to say they
indicate that the sentiment for war i5
not entirely unanimous.
. However, if "pacifist" applies tc
people who are willing to sacrifice im
portant National rights or the coun
try's honor for the sake of peace, the
terra is not applicable to Woodrow
Wilson and his backers.
The McLemore "scuttle" resolution
that would have given in to Germany
on the submarine question developed
that fact The administration was
against that resolution and it was ta
bled by Democratic votes. The ma
jority of Republicans in the house,
headed by Minority Leader Mann
voted for the resolution.. In other
words when some real business with
a powerful nation was on tap the Re
publican partyv as represented in con
gress, was the party of the "white
feather."
Three weeks ago when the Mexican
situation looked ominous and the na
tional guard was called to the colors
for anticipated action of what politi
cal faftli were the newspapers, some
in Oregon, that showed, a saffron
streak by assailing the president "for
getting the country into war?"
For anti-Wilson newspapers to at
tack the president as a pecifist is good.
o
BUSINESS THERMOMETER.
Whenever you feel a little dubious
about business conditions generally.
just pick up a copy of Dun's report,
one of the most reliable business ther
mometers in the country, and have it
abolished. Here is the newest report:
Competitive buying has abated and
business moves under reduced mo
mentum, though with surprisingly lit
tie shrinkage in its volume. This is
the period of all others when a de
cided halt is to be expected, and many
plants ordinarily stop for needed re
pairs, and inventories and vacations
are calculated to bring comparative
quiet in commercial channels. Yet
this year is an exception and much
less than the customary lull is now
apparent, while indications fore-shadow
unusual activity throughout the
summer. Instead of being at low ebb
as is often the case at this time, pro
duction is maintained close to the re
cent maximum and enforced shut
downs at manufacturing works will,
as a rule, be of short duration. Oper
ations in numerous instances, how
ever, continue hampered by the scarc
ity of labor and other drawbacks, and
it is still the fact that some mills are
turning contracts away that cannot be
filled as promptly as buyers desire
This is particularly true of cotton and
woolen lines, in which important gov
ernment needs have accentuated the
difficulties in making early' deliveries
. on ordinary requirements. Large or
ders focrmy shoes have also impart
ed stimulus to footwear and leather,
while in steel and iron the sustaineil
foreign demands tend to offset the
contraction in strictly domestic busi
ness. '
MISFITS
That's always a good story about
the Irishman who had never spoken
intt a t1nlin fitinlli iminir to one.
and starting to speak just as a stroke
of lightning lilt tne wire, tie juinpcu
back, crving: "Sure, that's you, Biddy-"
Some people seem to think it's a
fine thing for their daughters to learn
to play the piano, and, so it is, but
piano playing is a mere jingle unless
there is expression back of it.
Some people arc .-,11 physical, and
hence failures, and some people are
all spiritual, and hence almost un
earthly. There is a golden mean.
which people need to reach in their
human associations.
One can hardly have too much of
either if it is under control.
Big difference between the treat
ment of boys today and forty years
ago. Most of them are treated pretty
well; but jome are not, and others are
treated better than they should be for
their own good.
Give a boy everything he wants and
spoil him.
Give a boy nothing and drive him
into evil. . ' ' .
The old, musty parlor is a thing of
the past, at least in Albany. We don't
know of a single one.
You would have to hunt in many
homes to find a distinctive parlor;
Misfits remembers an Albany moth
er who made her boys take off their
shoes when they went through the
parlor. Nothing like that now.
The concentrated power of wealth
has certainly been well whacked at
this Chautauqua, and it deserves it.
'We are almost appalled at the man
ner in which fortunes are being made
in the east, through the robber system
of the day. .
Overcharging is robbery, and thit
is the system of the day. Many things
have gone up hundreds of per cent
merely for ungodly gain.
Greed is at the bottom of most of
the Mriking increases in the prices of
things.
After Jicaring several of the Chau
tauqua lecturers, we are completely
'aligned that Albany is the most beau
tiful spot on the face of the earth.
We should keep it (lean, a garden
spot, home town worth living in.
