The "Teuton dove ot peaco has ro turned to Its ark a sadly bedraggled looking biped and minus any sign In dicative of a secure landing place lor its storm-beaten ship ot state. There appears, to be no psychologi cal moment left for launching any- thing that might bring relief to a onco mighty nation now slipping on tho 4 slimy dote of its barbarous guilt But . there ,1s plenty of tho spirit of retalia tion In the allied nations to gtvo her one more kick in the slats to hasten . the slfppfng and get the dirty Job over T as quickly as possible. It is far from being through choice that we are thus '."engaged. It is necessity that urges 'us on. president Wilson has -sounded tho tocsin that spells, death to the vilest "jngnace that has ever threatened the . march of civilization. The red light '.of German autocracy must be snuffed '"out forever. , The divine right of kings to rule has " been dispelled as chaff before the wind of divine justice. Such an ending ' cculd have long .ego been foretold No man be he peasant or king can flaunt his iniquity in the face of One " God and escape the vlslta'ion of His " 'righteous wrath. Many have tried It, 'but a world's history Is spotted with those' who were broken on the wheel of His vengeance at last The sol emn obligation ot stewardship cannot rest so lightly as to be amenable only to the laws ot man.

Ono of the darkest nnd oho of tho brightest pages of human history is soon to bo written. As a supposedly civilized nation, Germany was obligated to conserve tho peace ol nations Instead of deliber ately destroying it. U wns nothing 'short of international trcachory and It :s high time international law Was framed to punish traitors to au Inter national peace. The more we seo of German diplo macy tho more wo feel that thoro will bo a perpetual grin scrawled' upon tho pages of tho world's history. German war lords are beginning to find out that the Intellectual standards ot other nations are unlike those of Russia. Austria is paying dearly fqr tho most dastardly ultimatum a strong nation ever delivered to a weaker ono. With threo colors in the Star Span gled Banner, tho only one we seo plainly these days is "RED." The News reputation for truth as a purveyor of news is saved. Tho bridge crew made good.

THESE MEN STAND BEHIND PRESIDENT Ssnator McNary and Givtrnor Wlthycombo Have Record for Patriotic Endeavor. Loyal and dopendabiti support of tin President and bis prosecutlou of tho war Is tho prtmo requisite demanded by all American cttuens of every can dldato for office at this tlmo. Wlm tho war and win It how la tho demand. JNobody has any tlmo for tho pacifist Mon ot action are wanted. Official In office who have measured up to theso demands should bo retained. They are on the job and Intimately acquainted with tub needs ot (ho gov eminent, They know what has boon dono to expedtto the war. They know what should be dono to haston tho unconditional surrender ot tho Huns. It Is with a full knowledge ot theso facts that tho Republican Stnto Cen tral Committee commends to tho vol' era ot tho stnto every Republican nominee on tho ticket Sonator Mo Nary and Representatives McArthur, Hawloy and Slunott have mado goad. They huvo subordinated politics and aro worKlng earnestly for tho ono great cnuso win tho war, Each has a 100 par cent record In his support of tho President Never have they faltered In bncklnR up tho President's war program. Thoy httvo given him support at times when such Demo cratic loaders as Chump Clark, Kltchln nnd; Dent balked and by their attltudo Imperiled tho onnctmont ot legislation vital to tho successful prosecution ot tho war, foremost of which was tho selective draft law. Hero at homo. Governor Wlthy combo has cooperated with tho Presi dent In every war activity. Ills xoal lu patriotic work haa been unbounded. Ho Is Intonsoly Amorlcan. Tho un paralleled record Oregon has mado In nil war tlmo activities and tho alacrity with which tho state has responded to every call for patriotic endeavor Is duo In part to tho leadership ot Gov ernor Wlthycombo. Botli In tho halls ot Congress at Washington and In tho Governor's of. flco at Salem, the pooplo of Oregon are fortunato In having cxporlencod men with a record 100 por cent Ameri can men who aro standing behind tho President for a vigorous prosecution of tho war to a speedy and victorious conclusion. Senator McNary, Representatives McArthur, Hawloy and Slnnott, and Govornor Wlthycombo should all bo reelected. Thoy aro at their posts of duty. None is making a campaign. They aro too busy serving their state and nation. They should bo returnoJ for continued sorvlco. Election ot now and untried men, lacking In abil ity and experience to fit them for tho positions, would not only bo unwise at this tlmo, but would fall far shnrt of tho patriotic duty of tho voters cf this stato. IS POLITICS ADJOURNED? Tho extent to which politics has been adjourned .by the Democrats In this state Is bcsrrevcaled by tho facts. While United States Senator McNary Is remaining at his post of duty at Washington, loyally backing up tho President in his prosecution of the war, his opponent, Oswald West, is conducting an active campaign for the Senatorshlp, Press of official busi ness, occasioned by war tlmo activi ties, has made It necessary for Gov ernor Wlthycombo to forego a personal campaign. He is remaining at his offico In Salem attending to tho busi ness of tho stato and cooperating, with tho national administration in every war tlmo activity. Not" so with Walter M. Pierce, who op poses him for tho Governorship. Mr. Piorco Is and for weeks has been mak ing a thorough canvass of the stato urging his candidacy upon the voters. Sure! "Politics Is aajqumcd" for tho .Republicans. What tho Burns News said of Gov ernor Wlthycombe In tho primary cam paign Is equally truo today: "Tho many level-headed actions of Governor Wlthycombe, coupled with his un daunted nnd unquestioned patriotism, with his tenacity of purposo to assist Oregon and Its citizens In tho fullest efficiency In domestic, commercial and mlltary affairs, entitle him to tho indorsement ot tne electorate oi Ore gon." "In bis price fixing bill, as in his ca reer as Senator, Mr, McNary has shown his ability, his vision and his statesmanship. Wo aro grateful to tho state of Oregon for, having given us such a Senator, Ho reflects credit upon his stn.te and does honor to the nation." United State's Senator John son, former Govornor of California. "Tho' attltudo of Senator McNary on the temperance question In tho United States Senate has been most satisfac tory to tho representatives of tho Women's Christian Temperance Union at Washington, and wc- believe In jus tice to tho Senator this fact should bo Known by his constituents," Officers of National Women's Christian Tern- porjhco Union.

"The food value of a quart of milk Is the equivalent of threo fourths of a pound of beef, two pounds of chicken or eight eggs. Compare the costs and milk wins."
