BUGENE, ORE. The spirit of
the old West will again be revived
when the "Trail to Kail" celebra
tion, marking the completion of the
Southern Pacific's new Cascade
line between San Francisco and
Portland via Klamath Falls and
Eugene, will be staged here Au
gust 19 and 20,
State, county and city officials
together with representatives of tho
Southern Pacific and the Interstate
Commerce Commission will parti
cipate In the two-day celebration
which Is expected to become the
most elaborate affair ever produced
In Oregon.
A pageant "Klatawa," depicting
the evolntion of travel from. the
early days of the. Indians to the
present time, has been written for
the celebration by Prof. W. P. O.
Thatcher, of the University of Ore
gon. More than 3000 people will

pate In the picturesque parade

as reduce curves and grades.
Special Teduced round trip ex
cursion from all points on its lines
in Oregon to Eugene will be put
into effect by the Southern Pacifia
for the celebration. I
not as an ally, the might of American
arms was thrust. And we think that
this lapsus linguae of the British for
eign secretary, for such it must have
been, effectually disposes of the self
ish Eupropean contention that the
war was ours from the first, and that
the allies and America were co-partners
therein.
The British foreign secretary tail s
at great length of the good faith of
Great Britain and of her determina
tion to pay her debts. He speaks of
the British aversion for whining and
he extols the immemorial British hon
or. Does not all this protestation of
lofty motive connote the extreme re
luctance of the debtor, and is it not
threaded with a whine to the last syl
lable? Good faih? They sully the
term who employ it in open or covert
dispraise of the nation that aided
them when their need was dire, and
which might for all that may be said
to the contrary have let the contin
ent of Europe stew in its own vital
juices. They say that a triumphant
Germany would have attacked Amer
ica with armed, exultant forces. Pos
sihyl. This much is certain, however;
our triumphant associates in the laet
var have surely attacked us with
weapons of slander and malice. If
Europe were to call again, terribly in
her fright and agony, this nation
might consider well the record that
now is being written. And then Why,
then, in all liklihood, we would gird
ourselves and go to the rescue for
it is by such impulses that the Amer
ican governs his conduct.
Mont Bundy was in the city from
his north-end ranch Saturday. Down
that way the threshing is completed,
the grain all delivered at the ware
houses in Lexington, the most of it
sold and the money spent, so Mr.
Bundy states, and the farmers are
i ow ready to begin fall operations
as soon as a good rain or two comes
along.

BRITISH FAIR PLAY
AND THE WAR DEBT
(Orcgonian.)
The verbal contribution of the Brit
ish foreign secretary to discussion of
the war debt was manifestly spoken
with a double tongue. It is difficult
for Americans to read it with patience
when they comprehend that beneath
its carefully chosen phrases, its dig
nified professions of high integrity,
runs the same sneer which heretofore
has been more openly indulged. Let
us concede that it is a valuable ac
quisition to diplomatic literature,
since it succeeds in saying much that
it purports to deny and even to re
buke. By implicaion, ever so careful
ly suggested and left to burgeon in
the thought of Sir Austen's auditors
and readers, the United States still is
represented as a miserable skinflint.
Let us see if some few of the re
marks of the foreign secretary do not
lead adroitly to such conclusions.
"We borrowed money from the United
States for the purpose of a war in
which they and we were engaged," he
observed. And again, "You must not
nsk us to say, and other people must
not ask us to say, that this (payment
of the war debt to the United States)
was the best solution that might be
arrived at in the interests of the
vorld at large." And further, "We
would have been prepared, and glad
' prepared, to wipe the slate ciean
of all these abligations among the
nllied and associated powers as be
ing part of our contribution to the
great cause in which we were oil en
gaged." Then, dryly, "That solution
did not commend itself." But the
master stroke, the most insinuative
incitement to ill will, was this tribute
to the magnaiT.inity and honor of
Great Britain: "We have since then
adopted as our policy that from our
debtors we will ask only so much as
will meet the payments which we have
t meet ourselves." Impeccable, can
did, upright Britain, scorning the re
pudiation of its war debt, but urging
with, the same tongue and in the same
breath an increased antipathy toward
the United States!
Sir Austen bids the late allies of
Grent Britain, who are in her debt, as
they are in ours, consider that such
rayments as they make to her are
wrung from them by a reluctant
friend for the satisfaction of an un
natural and callous creditor. Thus
we are condemned not alone for the
endeavor to collect some minor por
tion of the direct indebtedness of
France, but we are equally condemned
for the collection by Great Britain of
France's debt to her! But for this
American avarice, said Sir Austen in

effect, the world would be almost
Utopian today. What world? That
world which received the blood of
multitudinous human sacrifice at the
bidding of the war monster Europe
had shaped and coddled. In the rear
ing of that vast, insatiate monstros
ity this country had no part, but in
tha subjection of it we gave without
stint of men and gold. And they,
pic-aching brotherhood and magnan
imity, have their damages in terri
torial acquisitions and repniaticns
while we are paid in the brass coin
of insincere and artful criticism.
Yet for one distinction we Ameri
cans should thank Sir Austen. He
spoke of the "allied and associated
powers," and with this definition of
the war pact we have no quarrel. The
allies were the allies, and it was their
war they waged. Into this war, as an
