PATTISON, Editor and Publisher PROTECT THE ANTELOPE MARKET COMMISSION' BIIX IS INTRODUCED IX STATE SENATE Entered at the Heppner, Oregon, Postoffice as second-class Matter Terms of Subscription One Year S2.n0 COUE Just at the moment Coue is a bigger figure in the United States than he ever was in France. Recently a party of distinguished Frenchmen, comprising statesmen and jour nalists and other professional men, were at Dearborn, and the name of Coue was mentioned. None of the Frenchmen knew him. All attempts to identify him failed. The jour nalists made a note in their hooks to look him up when they got home. And here i.s Coue, filling American newspapers and American pulpits with his name. Arrived in New York, and scarcelv landed, he begins a series of newsppaper arti cles 011 his impressions ol the united Mates: unc cjl-ikv-man is threatened with a heresy trial for classifying Coue with Jesus Christ. Physicians and hospital experts, adopt ing a different attitude than was formerly shown in such matters, express a willingness to believe that Coue does ac complish some good in certain cases. It is quite a furor but somehow- one keeps remembering the French journalists who wrote down Coue's name, to look him up when they got home. Either France is much slower than the world is accustomed to think her, or Amer ica is "easier" or, but this is the most probable explana tion, an American impresario (vulgarly, "press agent") has been requisitioned. Jt is a marvelously combined Amer ican tour and advertising stunt, and the Coue book publish ers, and the Coue newspaper syndicates are doubtless aware of flush times. This is not to disparage Coue. He is very probably a good man and an honest servant of the suffering. His doc t tine that the imagination is more powerful than the will, is of great importance. His self-effacement proclaims the fiber of his character. I hit how can he teach us the lesson of liborating ourselves from this mania for foreign celebri ties who are not celebrated at home? Or is it this Great liritian having pioneered in the game of propaganda by celebrities, France has decided to iollovv suit? Fs Coue really an unofficial envoy of political France anxious to promote American leniency? Doubtless he is. but it is by no means certain that he knows it. On this view, impartial judgment will award the plan to French pronagandisni. Coue, after all, is worth a whole lot of Sir Philip Gibbses and Margot Asquiths. Dearborn Independent. State House, Salem, Feb. 1. A state market commission of three members to be appointed by the gov ernor, two of whom shall be real farmers, is provided for in a bill sponsored by Senator Zimmirmr.n and introduced this morning.

The duties now performed by the grain department of the public ser vice commission and the weights and measures depaitment would be merg cd under this commission, which would be financed by fees collected from its various activities. The members of the commission ould be appointed for a period of four years and would serve without pay except actual expenses in attend ing sessions of the commission. The ork of the commission would be conducted by inspectors employed by the commission. Pendleton, Feb. 1. L. D. Clark, former city marshal of Helix, was convicted of manslaughter Thursday in his trial for the killing of Harry Kose, poolhall proprietor at Helix, 0 miles north of here, October 28, 1922. The jury, composed of five women and seven men, took the case at 9 clock Wednesday night and return- d its verdict at 3 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Clark was charged with second de gree murder. He shot Rose during scuffle after Rose had ejected Clark's son from the store. Clark was sentenced to pay a fine of $1.00 and serve one year in the penitentiary. A great many people residing in Oregon do not realize that the few remaining antelope in southeastern Oregon are fast disappearing like the buffalo and other wild animals of the middle west a few years ago. This interesting American game ani mal should not be allowed to disap pear from the face of the earth alto gether, and for this reason the state game commission of Oregon and the truestees of the permanent wild life protection fund of America have de cided to offer a reward of $200 for information that will lead to the ar rest and conviction of any person killing an antelope in Oregon.

The senate Miami, iu1-1 ,, -c--- . ,,. r in. 1m. u-hether the chamres made in the nriirin.-il draftf of the covenant met its criticisms, and it hac ,il,t t,, -iitnili reservations to its ratification of the treaty? It had done so with regard to former treaties, ant its ri'dil had not been questioned. Nor would acceptance of reservations have involved rewriting the treaty. A mini her of signatory powers made reservations to one or mor of the second lmoui ot Hague treaties, and they were ac cented. The other signatories of the Versailles treaty hat ihe ru-lit to make reservations. If thev had done so their reservations might have been accepted without material! affecting the compact; that would have depended on their nature. The entire st.rv of the Versailles treaty shows Mr. W'i sou to have been primarily responsible for the failure of the United States to become a partv to it. 1 le asked tor a pop ular mandate as unembarrassed spokesman to make the treatv, and, the people refused to give it. That refusal in dicated that a treaty would run risk of not being ratified unless it was made by joint, action of both parties, but Mr. Wilson made it his own personal work. More than enough senators to defeat ratification signed a declaration that the league covenant should not be a part of the peace treatv, hut .should lie arranged after the treaty Was signed. Mr. Wilson insisted that the two be interwoven, even alter the allies showed inclination to separate them. The senate receded from its former position so far that a large majori ty of the republicans voted to ratify treaty and covenant as tie document, provided certain reservations were acecpt- co, ami tney are joincu iy twenty-one democrats. u only half of the democrats whovoted against the reserva tions had voted for them the treaty would have won, but Mr. Wilson would tolerate no compromise, saying that any reservation would nullify, and he held those democrats in line. The treaty was rejected by the combined votes of those senators who stood out against the league and those uho stood with Wilson for the league without change. Mr. Wilson stood firm, though both France and l!rit:ou made known that they would accept the reservations. Those who deny that Wilson was jointly responsible with I'orah for rejection of the treaty close their u nds to the plain facts of the history of ioio-jo. At almost any time before the final vote Wilson could have secured ratifi cation by either accepting the reservations, which. Mr. Taft said, left the covenant on per cent good, or by con sent to a compromise. The rcservationists co.i not in cither event have voted against ratification without put ting themselves hopelessly in the wrong before pu!!;c opin ion. Mr. Wilson destroyed his own work with the aid of its foes rather than permit his opponents to ha-e a hand in it, or than recognize that the senate's part in treaty making was more than an empty formality.
