The testimony of Secretary of War
Baker, appearing the second time be
fore the Senate Committee on Mili
tary Affairs, was more full and frank
than on the former occasion. When
asked by Senator Chamberlain why
the facts he disclosed had not been
revealed before, the Secretary refer
red to the general reluctance of mili
tary men to publish details of war
' plans. But In the public support of
Senator Chamberlain in his .charge
that the War Department had "falleti
down" there was no demand to pub
lish military secrets. Public opinion
recognizes the danger of saying too
little as well as the danger of saying
too much. The public knew all had
not been going well in our military
preparations and felt entitled to know
the facts. We have them, but they
were forced out.
The feature of Senator Chamber
lain's rpeech which most aroused the
couutry was that dealing with hospit
als and the care of the sick. On the
testimony of Surgeon-General Gorgas
cantonments were in general pretty
well completed before the hospitals
were commenced, although it wai
General Gorgas's advice that this or
der should have been reversed. The
makeshift hospital without heat or
proper equipment increased the death
rate, which was further increased by
the lack of trained nurses. Particu
larly alarming has been the death
rate from pneumonia, a decrease in
which intelligent nursing enters lar
gely into recovery. Dr. S. Adolphus
Knopf, a captain in the Medical Re
serve Corps, writine with the high
authority of the Surgeon-General of
the United States in the New York
Medical Journal, said: "May criminal
negligence of this character, never
again darken the bright pages of the
history of America's entrance into the
world war, and may we learn a lesson
through this sad experience."
The Chamberlain charges show
that the Government should take the
public into confidence in war prepar
ations. In a republic the people will
respond with every necessary sacri
fice when this is done. A second
gain should be found In cutting out
partisanship and the red tape of offi
cialdom, and putting the best busi
ness minds of the country in charge
of the great business of war.

It is well that this is so. It will
be a poor day for America when the
soldiers and sailors are not honored
before all others. Oregon Voter.
From present Indications, the Iron
hone will soon be supplanting the
horse ot flesh In Morrow county,
What farmer Is there today who hit
ches up the old nags when he cornea
O town? The majority of them go
out and crank up the tin Lizzy or
step into their big touring car. The
old driving team is left to their own
pleasures in the pasture. When
plowing season rolls around, a great
many of the farmers use tractors to
pull their plows and harrows. Ma
chinery at harvest time, either steam
or gas, grinds out the grain r.r.d again
the horse is counted out. The past
season saw a large quantity of wheat
hauled to the market with auto
trucks. When good roads become the
prevailing style in highways, the
horse will be counted out more than
ever.
But suppose these Oregon hens
now protected by the food adminis
trator refuse to lay eggs; should they
be allowed to eat $2 per bushel wheat
while they loaf, asks the Pendleton
East Oregonlan.
Spokane's new directory shows
there are 138,000 people in that city

STAXFIELD, THE MAX OP THE
HOUR.
One fo the state's really big men
has visited Coos County this week.
In this we refer to Hon. Robert N.
Stanfield, of Stanfteld, Oregon, speak
er of the House of Representatives.
He is a man equally well known with
leaders of the state, and few Indeed
have a more charming personality.
Incidnetally we mention he is a can
didate for higher honors, that of re
presenting the state in the United
States Senate. His excellent record
as a citizen of Oregon, a trail blazer,
having practically built the city
which he hails from and in which
the people have chosen the name in
his honor. He has shown his ability
as Speaker of the House and those
who have watched his career are cer
tain that his services will be most
appreciated in the greater opportun
ity, that of doing something as Sen
ator from Oregon. Few men, indeed,
there are who possess the qualifica
tions necessary to make a success or
even a mere mark in the world while
serving as United States Senator, and
when it Is known that a man so rich
ly endowed really wants the place. Is
willing to sacrifice golden opportuni
ties in a business way to serve the
state, we should appreciate the op
portunity of securing his services and
give him the toga with a vote of suffi
cient majority to prove there is no
mistaken confidences expressed.
Mr. Stanfield is a man big enough
to conceive of and work for the lar
eest interests of the state. He is
likewise big enough to give the mer
est detail his closest attention. Why
not decide right now to send him to
Washington and see if Oregon can
not be lifted out of this rut?

In Keeping With the Big
Thought of the Day
The dally press reflects a sentiment throughout the nation which
clearly Indicates a new condition.
Men are wanted everywhere. The work of this war Is being car
ried on largely by those who never before have been in public office
or in public work. Men who have been too busy, too engrossed with
their own tasks, are leaving their work to others and giving their
time and ability to the cause which Is ours, yours, everybody's.
It is a time when politics in the ordinary sense must not be con
sidered. It calls for all the ability that can be mustered.
Oregon to be a successful part in this unit plan for the defense of
Democracy, must likewise place the thought of the times, before
everything.
In another part of this paper appears the announcement of L. J.
Simpson as a candidate for the nomination for Governor on the Re
publican ticket. Mr. Simpson was urged to become a candidate by
his many friends in every part of the state, because of his business
record, his understanding and knowledge of Oregon's resources, In
dustries and needs; because of his public-splrltedness, which of re
cent years has led him to tasks which have been more important to
him than his own affairs.
L. J. Simpson is clearly the man who can give Ore
gon the administration necessary to this plan of Na
tional Efficiency.
His campaign will be directed straight to you as voters, as indiv
iduals who can do your own thinking.
We are firmly convinced that you will not allow pilitics to influ
ence your decision, and that you will vote fir tre man who is best fit
to help the people of Oregon, develop the state's vast resources, and
to prepare for, and participate in, the great reconstruction that is to
follow.
We believe you will weigh issues more closely than ever before,
and that L. J. Simpson will be your choice.
