It should now be quite evident, to tliase who have questioned it, that Mr. Hughes has definite and positive opinions and that he does not seek y groupg now gtand ,ow ,n the judg; ment of civilization. Socialists stand agast at the col- Spokane Spokesman-Review. This old world of ours is a painful ly practical old place. That truth spells woe for socialism. A nation at war or on the verse of war and in the throes of making it self militarily fit requires all the loy alty and all the capacities of cooper ation that exist in its classes and sections, in order to be able to save the possessions to which experience and the test of time and wear hava It deserves to go hard theu and goes hard actually with those who are dissatisfied with the household called country and sug gest burning it themselves or letting somebody else commit arson. This is the situation of socialism among the nations, of syndicalism, of nonpatriotic internationalism, of all social firms of limited liability which set themselves above the nation and the welfare of the country. It ex plains why all these forms of action Ml TAKE A CHANCE for softly padded words in which to express them. His message of ac ceptance bf the nomination indicated a belief that lanquage is made to re- real thought, cot to conceal It, and bis communication to the Progress ives is made up of plain words that say what they are meant to say. No man can misunderstand them. There re no rhetorical flights that dazzle the eye and leave the mind bewilder ed. Some of the Democratic papers have been saying that Hughes is a man of the same type as Wilson, so why change? Nothing could be far ther from the truth. Theirs is the dif ference T)etween strength and weak ness, between decision and indecision, between courage and timidity. Mr. Hughes has shown by his entire ca reer that he will decide what is right to "be done, and then do it, promptly. Mr. Wilson has shown neither the power of decision or of action. "The most serious difficulties the present administration has encoun tered," says Mr. Hughes in his mes sage to the Progressives, "have been due to its own weakness and incer titude." That is the conviction of all Americans whose minds are not swayed by partisan bias. And Mr. Hughes points out the evidences of that "weakness and incertitude" in the long list cf outrages against American and Americans cited in the note to Mexico of Jane 20, a series of crime extending over three years, to which no self-respecting nation should submit for a moment. That series has reached the height of diab olism if the massacre of Carrizal, and still wf are temporizing. Is it con ceivable that we would have been in our present position, with a man in the White House having a proper conception of international duties and national rights, with the firmness to perform the one and to demand the other? There would have been no war, and no occasion for war. Nor would the difficulty with Germany have been so long drawn out and so irritating. Mr. Hughes indicates what his course would ahve been when the warning notices in regard to the Lus itania were published. He would have issued a warning of his own. Therein is the fruit of the difference between the two men. Hughes would act; Wilson would temporize. Do we want a man of action, or a man of in action for our president? St. Louis Globe-Democrat. lapse of their creed under the pres sure of nationality and patriotism. They question whether socialist in ternationalism can ever be resuscitat ed. Still more perplexing and con founding is the paralysis of sets of socialists. Efforts to prolong the dis tinctions between class and class have failed in every European country at war. In the United States the stress of Americanism bears equally hard upon endeavors to conserve antagon isms between classes. The New Review, an American or gan of international socialism, states that in Canada socialist activities have almost entirely ended. Want of support for socialist papers has caused them to stop publication. The membership of the socialist and so cial-democratic parties of Canada has dropped almost to half of what it was three years ago. Hoppner People Should Act in Time. If you suffer from backache; If you have headaches, dizzy spells; 1' the kidney secretions are irregu lar. Don't delay likely your kidneys are sick. Hoppner people recommend Doan's huiney Pills. Here's a Heppner woman's exper tence Mrs. H. Hughes, Court St., Hepp ner, says: "For about a month, thought my back was broken. It ached and throbbed so badly at timos that I could hardly stand. My kid neys acted too freely. The secretions were unnatural and I felt miserable all over. I had taken onlv a few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills when I no ticed a big change. My back felt stronger and my kidneys acted more regularly. One box permanently over came the trouble and since then I have enjoyed the best of health." Price 50(f, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Hughes had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props, Buffalo, N. Y. MR. GREELEY'S SCORE In former years the doctor and sometimes the undertaker was called in for full duty on the Fourth of July. Since the adoption of a "safe and sane" Fourth, the maimed fingers, loss of arms and legs, burnt faces and singed hair have been considerable less in number. And patriotism is Just as rife among our people as it was in the good old days. Measured by influence and fame, Horace Greeley was, no doubt, the greatest American editorial writer, It is agreeable to reflect that he was wrong in his opinions about half the time. He wished, instead of fighting the Civil War, to let the Southern States seceede and set up for them selves, saying he hoped "neve:1 to live in a republic whereof one -half was pinned to the other by bayonets." What a smashing phrase! On paper it is fairly unanswerable; for what could be more absurd theoretically than a free government with one-half coercing the other half to stay in when it wants to get out? All the same, in fact, the pinning with bayonets proceeded, and almost everybody now approves it. But only a churlish soul could count up against Horace that he was wrong then. Half the time he was right and when wrong he wrote a corking sentence. To be right half the time and emin ently worth reading when wrong'. What a record for the envy and des pair of lesser followers of his trade! His may be called a perfect score; and perfection happens only once In a generation or two. Saturday Eve ning Post.

The Fourth was a "Jonah" day for autoists. It is reported that as many as 11 cars were stalled in and about Heppner on that day.

That professor who went with Shackleton and Mawson to the Antar tic takes the cake for coolness. "Are you busy Mawson?" he call ed out to that famous member of the party one night. "I am," said Mawson. "Very busy realy?" came the voice. "Yes, very busy. , Why?" "Well, if -you are not frightfully busy, Mawson, I'm down a crevasse." The professor was found hanging doWn a crevasse by the tips of his fingers, a position he could not have maintained many minutes, and the crevasse was of unknown depth.

Witlv these employes, whoseyefficient service is acknowledged, the railroads have no differences that could not be considered fairly and decided justly by such a public body. - , Railroads Urge Public Inquiry and Arbitration The formal proposal of the railroads to the employes for the settlement of ' the controversy is as follows: "Cur conferences have demonstMted that w cannot harmoniie our differences of opinion and that eventuall tht matters in controversy must be passed upon by other and disinterested agencies. Therefore, we propose that you' proposals and the proposition of the railways be disposed of by one or the other of the following methoda: ' 1. Preferably bv submission to the Interstate Commerce Commission, the only tribunal which, by reason of its accumulated information bearing on railway condiiions and its control of the revenue o the railways ia in a Dosi tion to consider and protect the rights and equities of all the interests affected, and to provide additional revenue necessary to meet the added cost of operation in case your proposals are found by the Commission to be just and reasonable; or, in the event the Interstate Commerce Commission cannot, under existing law,, act in the premises that we )om.,y request Congress to take such action as may be necessary to enable the Commission to consider and ' 4 promptly dispose of the questions involved; or 2. By arbitration in accordance with the provisions of the Federal law" (The Newlands Act). Leaders Refuse Offer and Take Strike Vote Leaders of the train service brotherhoods, at the joint conference held in New York, June 1-15, refused thes offer of the railroads to submit the issue to arbitration or Federal review, and the employes are now voting on the question whether authority shall be given these leaders to declare a nation-wide strike. The Interstate Commerce Commission is proposed by the railroads as the public body to which this issue ought to be referred for these reasons: No other body with such an intimate knowidge of railroad conditions has such. an unquestioned posi tion in the public confidence. The rates the railroads may charge the public for transportation are now largely fixed by this Govern ment board. Out of every dollar received bv the railroads from the public nearly one-half ia paid directly to the em ployes as wages; and the money to pay increased wages can come from no other aource than the ritei paid by the public. r The Interstate Commerce Commission, with iti con trol over rates, is in a position to make a complete investigation and render such decision as would pro tect the interests of the railroad employea, the owners of the railroads, and the public. A Question For the Public to Decide feel that they have no right to grant a' wage preferment of to these employes, now highly paid and constituting onlv The railroads kuu t u 7 i W'uycs, now nigniy paid and constituting only one-fifth of all the employes, without a clear mandate from a public tribunal that shall determine the merits of the case after a review of all the facts Jhe "ngle issue before the country is whether this controversy it to bt settled bv impartial Government inquiry or by industrial warfare.
