WEDNESDAY. AUGUST S. 1917. THE "CONSCIENTIOUS OBJECTOK A ood many registered citiien are )lcadinnVon?v-irntious obje. tions" as grounds of exemption fron: military duty. It is uncertain at pres ent bow Qlttcb lc;.tl considt rat .on their claims will receive At lor mor ! consideration, the illuminating com ment made by Bishop J. R. Cooke ol the southern Methodist Episcopal church shows that at best they can make but a sorry case. "The conscientious objector," says the bishop, "has no claim upon a gov ernment he disavow , upon a country its laws, institutions, its lite and civ ilization that he will. not defend." This is quite logical. Our laws, in stitutions, national tile and civilization are based upon the work of men who fought to establish and preserve them. There would be no America if our forefathers had been obsessed nh "conscientious objections" against fighting it they had not taken up arms in defense of their civic rights. How, then, can a man who objects to fight ing for these things now when they are threatened consistently remain in enjoyment of tbetn? What right has he to share in blessings won by force of arms? How can he avail himself of the olice power that protects his person and .property, of the courts that guar antee him his "civic rights,"' of the schools that educate his children, of the libraries, museums, parks, etc., that minister to his needs, of the pub lic sanitation that sefeguards his health, of the use of public highways and navigable streams, of the oppor tunity to work, travel and enjoy him self unmolested, of any of the innum erable facilities provided him by vir tue of his membership in a great, co operative community which lives and functions by reason of its ability and willingness to defend itself? If a "conscientious objector" it really such, and not merely a coward ly shirker, suggests Bishop Cooke, he will abide by the natural consequenc es of his convictions. He will be logi cal and honest. And that would make him literally "a man without a coun try." For he would be morally oblig ed to go and live alone in some des ert island. Only then would he be free from the charge of taking un fair and immoral advantage of his fellows. IISFITS By F. P.

Klory. 1 remarkc I that 1 ued to know a man named Flory who left Linu county tit teen or twenty years ago and came to Ta coma. "That was ray father." he re marked. "He died about a year ago. He asked me about different Albanv people and told me that thf B. in his raute stood for Blain, that he wa named after L. E., one of a good many who have been, because oi the high regard in which Mr. Blain aai always been held by the people oi Linn county. I learned thai A. E. Keitli, who was with the Hamilton Store for several years, recently left Tacoma tor Cedro Wooly, where he will travel for a chain of department stores at a big increase in salary. Since leaving Al bany he has been connected with a department store here, for some time as Floor Manager. There is a big ship building plant directly opposite my hotel window, on the other side ofthc Sound, and boats for and from Seattle pass my window. I am at the Hotel Tacoma, a fine place nearly two hundred feet above the water on the edge of the hill that' forms the business section of the city. As steamers run between Tacoma and Seattle every two hours and the tare is only 60c for the round trii txepect to take a run over to Seat tle some evening. MARKET REPORT The prices given in the local quo tations are those asked by the wholesaler from the retailer for fruit and vegetables. All other prices are those said the producer. List corrected daily. LOCAL Its no more than right that our soldiers and sailors should be allowed to write home without stamping their letters. And certainly Congress, wit1! its notorious abuse of the franking privilege for its own members, could not hare the nerve to deny it to the nation's defenders. All the letters they write home will cost the postof fice incomparably less than the politi cal speeches the law-makers distrib ute at public expense. A patriotic housewife, weary of hav ing male food conservationists urge upon her a "meatless day," a wheat less day,", etc., suggests that the men themselves adopt a "smokeless day. Which might not be a bad idea pro viding the ladies would come across with a "candy less day." GERMAN SPYS OPERATING SOUTH AMERICA Buenos Aires.
