see that the power of this country
and the productivity of this country
are raised to their absalute maximum
and that absolutely nobody is allowed
to stand in the way of it.
"Our duty is to stand together
night and day until the work Is fin
ished." From President Wilson's
Address to the American Federation
of Labor.
(Portland Journal)
The arrival of Dr. Kerr in Oregon
starts afresh the discussion of the
offer made him to become president
of the Kansas Agricultural College.
The Kansas bid is an attractive
proposition. The institution has an
endowment of $900,000 a year. It
stands in the front rank of institu
tions of its kind. Its location nearer
the center of things of the nation
places It in closer touch with the big
life of the nation.
It has a splendid plant Its build
ings are of stone and all Its physical
arrangement of the first order. The
salary of the president is $9000 and
this, with the high repute of the in
stitution, makes the offer from its
board to Dr. Kerr an alluring pros
pect for any man. The president
whose place Dr. Kerr Is asked to fill
resigned to accept the editorship of
the weekly edition of a Kansas City
newspaper at $12,000 a year, which
shows something of the opportunities
headship of that Institution opens up.
No higher compliment could be
paid the Oregon Agricultural college
than Is carried In this call for its
president to become president of the
Kansas institution. No greater com
mendation of agricultural progress in
Oregon could be given than is con
tained in the bid for President Kerr's
services. . There could scarcely be a
higher testimonial to the state itself
than is this desire to transfer Dr.
Kerr to the Kansas field.
It is understood that the decision
is soon to be made, and in many
ways it is a decision of unusual grav
ity. There is no known reason why
Oregon should give over its educa
tional brains to Kansas and take du-
bious chances on finding substitute
brains. There is no known reason
why Oregon should surrender a de
sirable thing that it has for the bene
fit of another state. There is no
known reason why Oregon, a state
largely agricultural and with so much
yet to do in agricultural development,
should not have the best agricultural
leadership obtainable. Kansas to the
contrary notwithstanding.
It would be a most difficult matter
for Oregon to find another agricultur
al college president of the Kerr :
mould or of the Kerr powers, or of
the Kerr genius. Those who know;
much about such things believe him
to he as able a college administrator
as there is in America. The Kansas
board of regents think so, for in its
list of applicants for the position of
fered Dr. Kerr without solicitation
from him, are conspicuous educators
from the leading institutions of the
country. j
It is what he has done with the Or- j
egon Institution that has made Pres-;
ident Kerr sought at Kansas. And :
what he has done here has been ac
complished within 10 years from a'
fery small beginning. It is in a field
oh the fringe of America, far remote
from the center of things educational
and affairs national.
The provincial college of that dec
ade back is one of a few of the great
institutions from which advanced ag
ricultural and scientific discovery and
information are radiated. On ac
count of its high repute, many states
are sending young men to it for the
training that will make them leaders
in the field of American production.
Its graduates are called for to take
high educational positions in institu
tions as far away as distant Maine
and farthest Florida. It is conse
quential to Oregon to have an insti
tution that is looked upon as one of
the few leaders of agricultural
thought and progress in America.
By what he has done, President
Kerr knows what can be done, what
it yet to be done and how to do it in
Oregon. He knows better than any
successor could know in years, the
people, the places and the possibilit
ies of this field. In this, there is the
highest reason for the friends of the
Oregon Agricultural college and the
people of the state to make it clear to
President Kerr that they need him
and that they want him.

"Any body of free men that com
pounds with the present German Gov

destruction. Any man in
America or anywhere else that sup
poses that the free industry and en
terprise of the world can continue if
the Pan-German plan is achieved'and
German power fastened upon the

Time is the test of truth. And
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test in Heppner. No Heppner resi
dent who suffers backache, or annoy
ing urinary ills can remain uncon
vinced by this twice-told testimony.
J. H. Cox, carpenter, Baltimore
St., Heppner, says: "I seems that if
I caught the least cold, I suffered
from pain in my back. At times I
simply couldn't move and had to stay
in bed for a week or ten days. I used
a great many medicines, but I can
say that Doan's Kidney Pills did me
more good than anything else. I
haven't had an attack for sometime
now."
OVER SIX YEARS LATER Mr.
Cox said: "It has been a long time
since I have had any occasion to take
a kidney medicine. I still consider
Doan's Kidney Pills a good, reliable
.medicine for backache and kidney
uisoraers.

Our Loans To Other Nations.
The United States has loaned to
other nations engaged in the war with
Germany something over three hill
ion dollars, taking for the sums ad
vanced the obligations of such na
tions, bearing the same interest and
maturing at the same time as the
Liberty Loan Bonds.
The wisdom of this policy is beyond
question. By strengthening these na
tions and making them as powerful
and as. .effective as possible we are
greatly ldtng In the shortening of
the struggle; we are doing much to
insure an ultimate victory; we are
doing only that which it is our duty
to do toward our allies in this tre
mendous war against an autocracy
which would debase and enslave all
nations and men.
The fact that If we did not advance
this money much of the work which
the allies are doing would have to be
done with American money and A
merican men establishes clearly the
intelligence and wisdom of our policy,
There is work to be done which re
quires the expenditure of blood and
treasure. In making these money ad
vances to Great Britain, France, Italy
and other nations we are lending
money which will be returned to us
instead of expending sums possibly as
great, possibly greater, with no hope
of return. In addition, we are saving
the lives of American soldiers.
No policy the American Govern
ment has pursued Is wiser or more
, truly economical and patriotic.
