PORTLAND, ORE., JULY 15, 1902
7 .LEE AND CROMWELL,
V The .Minneapolis cTrlbun believe; hat
.. General Robert B. Lm, the flower of the
Bon them military; I not to be compared
favorably' with Oliver Cromwell, who led
the'EngUah freedom forces and aoeelerat
- eft the movement toward the larger na
tional Ufa to which the British Nation
X has attained. Tha comparison of tha two
depends upon the point of view. As to
the exact oorreotneaa Of the two cauaa
' for which each stood, there is no question.
7et Leo fought for an idea that was
not altogether, wrong, and he fought a
fight that had to be fought and fought
' vigorously. Furthermore, he fought it
"nobly. gaJljitJyTlievotedljr, aeov3infk
: the highest concepts of the soldier's de
mands, and as brilliantly as ever a leader
generalied armks in military conflict'
Colonel Henry Watteraon expressed the
truth the other day at Gladstone Park,
to his lecture upon "Lincoln," when he
: said: '..
'1 thank God that the war did not end
at the consultation at Fortress Monroe,
hut that It went" on to the length it had
.reached at the final surrender,"
' Colonel Watteraon says what all wise
, men wia'aay, He speaks, too, for the
vanquished South. He knows, as an
fibuthernere" now know; that the war
was their greatest good, that the man
at the head of the Union forces, Lincoln,
was their best friend, and that they who
live south from Mason and Dixon's Line
are incomparably better, off today with
the issues fairly tried out, that were In
; .volveoVbi the Conflict
- "General Lee," says the Tribune, "vio
la'Jed the oath he took as a United States
officer, and left the Union armies to lead
the Confederacy."
It is surprising that any newspaper
writer this late after the war should take
so contracted a view of this matter. Gen
eral "Lee's oath was absolved for him by
; the eternal truth that compel loyalty to
one's own rather than loyalty to an ab
straction. Who thlnke normally would
not now despise the memory of Lee had
he failed to offer to the fouth his bril-,
; llant talents and fine accomplishments?'
The question answers itself.
Even "Old NoH," ragged and great tn
many respects, does not appeal to many
admirable emotions of the human heart
as does Robert E. Lee. Nor, looked at
in history perspective, did the stern old
Briton stand upon a loftier platform than
that occupied by the gallant fighter of the
South. .Lee's place was necessary, and
he filled it a few have done in the his
tory of war. The South will resent any
imputation Upon the' hero they ' have
raised to so high a place a that of
. Robert E, Lee, and the generous people
of the North will Indorse them in their
; pretest .
D03CH A GOOD SELECTION.
In electing Colonel Henry E. Dosch to
, the position of director-general of the
Lewis and Clark Centennial, the directors
ef the corporation have the indorsement
of the people of this city and state. They
. know that Colonel Dosch is the man of
v eU men to captain the Exposition to the
' success for which everyone is anxious.
They know tht he will utilise the r
ss sources now at command, and obtain
' Others as no one else could do,
Theris everything In leadership. Given
1 soldiers never so brave, hardy and well
equipped, and, lacking generalship, fall
' ure will result
' There will be noV failure with Colonel
Dosch at the head ef; the enterprise. He
will compel success. He will organise the
Fair and evolve desirable conditions.
The Lewis and Clark directors are to be
r congratulated upon their wise selection.
SUPPORT THE FAIR DIHECTOB8.
. Let debate rag never so earnestly, but
' let the people forget not to support the
Fair directors heartily, even though they
make decisions that are not in conson
ance with the idea of some of the re
dents, however numerous those dissenting
residents may he. , '
- .The Fair directors ar business men of
character end high standing. They hare
the Interests of Portland and Oregon at
heart They will do -what they think
best Every on of them wilt yote for or
against any measure ' . hl judgment
dictates, and the vote will be an honest
expression. of honest opinion.. .
Don't forget that every man of them
sacrificed something la accepting posi
tion! upon the board, and la compelled to
undergo adverse criticism from thousands
of thoughtless people, who do not stop
to consider all of the difficulties a board
of directors of such aa enterprise must
face. It la a work of public spirit and
carries with it no promise of compensa
tion, excepting the compensation that
goes to. the man who hat wrought for
the good of his city, and state.
Because you do net agree with the di
rectors, let it he no. reason for withhold
ing hearty support Of them. Back them
tn every manner, possible, pay subscrip
tions promptly to all stock held, and
whatever be the decision as to the site,
let every' .Portland , man and wortan de-
termlne that there shall be no division
after the debate over the matter ha
ended. . -' ,
, THE GENIUS OF WORK.
Kitchener, 'English Lord and military
hero, was received with loud acclaim by
the British people, and accorded honors
seldom enjoyed by man. Tet, 20 years
ago he was a homely young officer, with
no apparent prospects, and not even
sociability to utilise In winning hi way
to the forefront of his compeers In the
English Army.
It has been through work, application,
persistency, that Kitchener has forced
himself to 'the front and commanded
plaudits second only to those granted
by the populace to "Bob," a- they
fondly call Lord Roberts. Kitchener ha
done things, and ' he ha kept doing
things to the foes- ef England, tie had
no treat "pun." He wa as much alone
as any among the young o (Beers of 20
years ago. He had no more brilliant tal
ents, perhaps, than a score of other who
today are hot known to any outside' their
regiments. V
But there was capacity for work in that
low, and he went ahead doing hi duty
faithfully, meeting the' demands 'placed
upon htm, hesitating not at any hard
ship, steadily proving that when a task
was entrusted to him the task wa sure
to be done. And hi superiors ' grew to
depend upon the "Sirdar" for work from
which less sturdy officer shrank, from
Which those Who thought more of the
temporary enjoyment desired to abstain.
The honor that now are heaped upon
Lord Kitchener are the reward for work
and industry, and along with counties?
other Instances prove that after all the
genius of work accomplish more in this
world than any other accomplishment.
THE COOS BAY ROAD.
Whatever may be the real financial
force behind the Coos Bay railroad pro
ject that ha been launched In this city,
it cannot be denied that It holds great
possibilities for Portland and Oregon. It
will develop a region of which the peo
ple know very little. It will bring Into
operation Industries that otherwise would
remain as mere potentlaltiea. It will con
tribute materially to the wonderful
growth that Is certain to take place dur-u
ing the coming decade..
L. D. Kinney, J. Thorburn Ross and
other gentlemen who are associated with
them are entitled to a vote of thanks and
confidence from the people, of this com
munity for that they propose to create an
enterprise that promises so much, to the
commonwealth.
The Coos Bay country Is great In possi
bilities. It has enormous resources. It
has e. fine harbor, one of the best on th3
Coast. It has large timber supplies
There are minerals contiguous. Agricul
ture and dairying and stockralslng will
become big industries there under the
Stimulus Of the proposed road. People
will go there to live. Homes will be
built Immigrants will be attracted from
the East. There will be development
where there has been stagnation and only
latent possibilities. The Coos Bay road
will accomplish these thing, and there
fore those who have formed the plans
and who propose to carry them out are
deserving of the appreciative support of
all who live in this portion of the Pa
cific Coast
OUR CROWDED PARK8.
Every park; in Portland was, crowded
Sunday by people who wanted to get
out Into the open air and away from
the dust of the city's center. Thoy
swarmed out on the street cars, in car
riages and on bicycles, and there were
thousands who swelled the throng of plc
nicers in those parks.
Is U not suggestive of what should be
done with the City Park? Is It not an
argument for the retention of the City
Perk as a park proper, and not denying It
to the people during the long time when
it would be in Course of preparation for a
fair,., with the' attendant destruction of
the natural beauties of the spotT
Portland has not too many park. There
should be more, not less. The City Park
should be retained, and others should be
added. And the East Side deserves
recognition in this respect The people
over there ask for a park, and they offer
a plan whereby one may be secured, by
purchasing the IS lots proffered for tS3.
000, to be used by the Fair and after
ward kept permanently as a public park.
.Th pressure for parka is-Increasing
each year.- Portland nas the most won
derful, opportunity of any city In the
world to develop a system of perks, and
nothing should be don to detract from
the results that may be attained. Vhe re
tention of City Park as a park only and
the ourchase of the' Hawthorne Park
tract and Its retention after the Fair
will contribute toward the desired end.
"WAR ON RAILROADS."
That the Republican state , convention
In Washington Is to be a battleground
In a "war on the railroad" s bruited
about la the publlo prints. It should be
true that this is a misnomer ef the con
test There should be no war on the
railroads. And the man who poses as an
enemy of railroads I a demagogue. Gov
ernor McBride of Washington i not an
enemy of the road. He is an opponent
of some of the act of some railroad
men and desires to correct some wrong
tendencies.
But he IS not or should not be an
enemy of those road. Every Intelligent
person acknowledge that railroads ar
part of the absolute necessity.- of the
times, and that we could a welt forego
bread, almost as transportation facllt
ties. In these days of much moving from
place to place and needed exchange of
the products of this region for those
of that
It cannot be doubted that theiro are
many problems that mult be worked out
by faithful publlo servant, and Gov
ernor McBride appears to be well quali
fied, to accomplish that work. It is, or
should be, in a spirit of harmontsatlon of
conflicting interests that thi ia under
taken, and only the demagogue will prate
about leading a "war on the railroads.''
A well lead a war upon the flouring
mills.
BANISH TH6 PISTOL.
A man was accidentally shot' on Sun
day night by a pistol dropping from hi
pocket Why need he carry a pistol 7
Why need any man carry a pistol, now
adays, in Portland, unless h be a peace
officer or guard of some property, watch
ing it as regular business?
Thla if question that must beeaked
in the West until ii h bincorrectiy
answered. Pistols have no place in the
economy of present society on the Pacific
Coast. Men who do not carry them have
less trouble than those who do., Indeed,
most of the troubles that result from
shooting-when there should not be shoot
ing, come from this practice of "packing
guns," which Is all toe common In this
region. ,
The man thus injured was personally
not inclined to Injure himself or other
with the weapon he had in his pocket.
Nevertheless, the presence tn one's pocket
of a pistol is always a potential tragedy,
and the practice should not be continued.
Few men hunt up Weapons to commit
violent acts. In a majority of Instances
they "pull a gun" on the spur of some
Impulse and then live to regret the act,
or, sometimes, die to expiate a crtm
that they never Intended to commit,
This accident merely affords excellent
opportunity to enforce a truth that Is al
ways patent to thoughtful people. The
lesson Is taught the easier because of this
Incident.
OREGON NEEDS STATE PRIDE.
Scratch a Callfomlan and you find that
you have an enthusiastic champion of
everything that bears the stamp of the
Golden Gate State. Look up a Washtng
tonlnn and you discover one who booms
his state In the most enthusiastic man
ner. Oregon needs more state pride. It Is
worth more to a commonwealth than any
other one" attribute.
There is not one point of essential ad
vantage possessed by any other state on
the Coast that cannot be duplicated In
Oregon. Tet there too often Is heard
apology from Orcgonlans for the sjtate
and the conditions obtaining here. Re
sources are Illimitable? Climate Is In
comparable. Opportunities arc matohlesv.
Why not appreciate these things and
proceed to let the world know that the
hlfrh sun of heaven shines upon no more
favored region than included within th3
borders of this commonwealth? Why not
do a little boasting? Why not boast even
to the extent of almost offenslveness? It
wouldn't hurt Oregon. It would. Indeed,
da her some good.
There Is going to be more interest In
the fight between Flttslmmons and Jeff
ries than was shown in the South African
War. How fortunate the average cltl
sen will regard the newspaper man who,
for professional reasons, must keep post
ed upon the issues of the "great bat
tle!" When one reads over the list of busi
ness men who have been named by -the
Elks' to organise the carnival for Port
land, he concludes that the enterprise
must be a "go." With such "good 'fel
lows," and efficient fellows, at the head,
it cannot fall.

NEW .UNIFORM.
Knickerbocker to be Substitu ted
For Long Trousers.
The United States army 1 to. have
new uniform. Radical changes are t be
made In both aervioe and dress uniform
of officer- and man of all branebes of
th service.
Some time age' Secretary of War Root
appointed 4 special commission of army
officers to investigate and report oa the
question ef Improvement In the uiform
now worn. The commission ha held e
number of hearing, examined th uni
forms of armies of other countries and
will report .to Secretary Root recom
mending a number of changes.
These recommendations will inolude the
adoption of khaki, as the service uniform
for all armies, hut full length trousers
for privates are to be abandoned. The
new service uniform proposed will have,
tn place of full length trousers, knicker
bockers and either leggins or a wrap
ping for th legs similar to that used in
the British army. Long trousers are to
be retained In the dress uniform, but the
helmet will be abolished and a cap with
visor substituted. The brown- slouch
hat with the service uniform will be re
tained, ' .
The 'proposed changes In the uniform
of officer are all In the direction of sim
plicity. The present long, heavy sword
I to be abolished . in favor of a short
and light-weight weapon slmllae to that
now used in the Italian army. In full
dress uniform officers will wear a cap
with visor,, which Is to be modeled after
a pattern need In the Prussian regiments
of the German army.
Th knapaack is to be abolished and
In Its place there will be a oaava bast
that wUl be auapended by straps over
both .shoulders. The bag will banc
about the middle of the back.
General Miles appeared before the com
mission and suggested a uniform for th
cavalry branch of the aervlce. His sug
gestion was ignored, a nearly all th
recommendation of the distinguished
officer have been.
It is expected that Secretary Root will
approve . the proposed changes and un
less it is found neceeaary to have Con-
jrress jjaae ,pn Jepai. the army will
appear in tne new unirorms peiore m
end of th year. Bo far as is known at
present, It will not be necessary to refer
the matter to Congress.
A "WILD WEST" INCIDENT.
It was at th Wild West show. A young
man and hi best girl sat In front of th
observer. Next to the man, on the ether
side, was a Hibernian gentleman. A a
the show progressed the broncho buittrs
came on. Ed Bolder mounted the -ugliest
pony In the bunch, Sod Immediately there
wa something doing all over the fore
ground. Bd stuck manfully to hi saddle
until th beast In a f renty ot anger, rolled
with him. When the broncho had ceased
pawing the ground about the prostrate
man and had hiked Off Into the gloom
they picked Solder up, insensible, srd
carried him away.
It was" a blood-curdling seen. It scaled
the best girl so that . she grabbed the
young man by the hand and burled her
head on his shoulder, while he supported
her with hw arm. When It wa sll over
she recovered her composure and blush-
ingiy resumea ner dignity. The.-e wa a
tense silence. At last It was broken by
the Hibernian gentleman, who, nudging
the young man, remarked, in a stage

Hot milk 1 a most nutritious beverage.
A real luxury, the value of which but few
people know. Many who have abundance
Ot milk never think of using it as a drink

That Is, take it In small alps. Why?
Because the casein ot milk when it
come In- contact with th acid of th
gastric fluid, coagulates and forms curd.
and if swallowed in large quantitlaa at
once a large curd Is formed which the
stomach handles With difficulty.
TIS ODD.
The two elderly Irish citizens, out tor
a Sunday stroll, passed by a Jeweler's
show 'window In which were displayed
three clocks recording time In various
parts ot the world.
" Tis odd," says one. "In some parts
of the earth 'tis yesterday, and In other
parts 'tlrt tomorrow while the United
State 1 the only place tn all the world
where tl today."
" "Tis odd."'
" 'Tt so."
"Now, when would be my birthday If
I were in Pari?"
"Your birthday it today?"
" "Tl."
"And 'tis tomorrow in Franc, today?"
" 'Tie."
"Thin yes could never have a birthday
If y' were over there, because your birth
day comes today."
"Tls odd." - v
"''Tis so."
"No doubt, that's why the population

Kaiser's Childless "Ancestor."
In his telegram to President Roosevelt
offering a statue ot Frederick the Great
to American people the German ' Emperor
refers to his "ancestor'" well known
friendly altitude toward the young Amer
ican republic during the course of her
formation; but hi Majesty might have
been more explicit by saying that Fred
erick was th first European sovereign to
recognize the Independence of our re-"'
belllou colonists. It is also notorious,
tnougn it was not to be expected of the
Kaiser that he should have alluded to the
fact, that In recognizing this lndepend-
rnue aa nere 01 nqssoacn was not so
much animated by love of the Americans,
ieai 01 an meir repuouo wntcn was a
form of government abhorrent to him
aa by a hatred of Great Britain. ,Jhe
present action of the Emperor may be
paralleled with that of hi grandfather.
William X, who presented to the town of
Peterhead, in Aberdenshlre, a replica of
the status Of Field Marshal Keith, which
stands, with other similar monuments to
th memory of th seven years'war, on
the Wllhelmsplata, Berlin, over against
Bismarck' old fftuac. For the rest, it is
strictly speaking not correct of the Km-
peror to refer to Frederick as his "ances
tor," seeing that hi Majesty 1 only de.
cended from a brother of the great King,
who never had any children.

ELECTRIFIED HOUSES.
An Instance of ncn-famlllarlty with
simple scientific facts Is Illustrated by an
article that goes the rounds of the press
bnce or twice annually, namely, the story
of th. electrified house. The article us
ually states that some one ha discovered
that everything he touches in hi house
the radiators, picture frames, banquet
lamps, etc. gives him an electric shock.
Hence, he fears there is some connection
between the arc-light wires and the wa
ter pipes near his residence. The electrla
light inspector Is, therefore, summoned,
and reports, that the wire of his com
pany are Intact and that the electricity
