THE LOGIC OF EVENTS.
1
By Henry N. Harger.
War Gossip.
“Ye shall hear of wars, and rum
ors of wars.’’ (Matt. 24. 6; Mark 13.
T.)
At present both are realities, but
the prevailing wars are minor af-
fairs as international conflicts go
They are not receiving nearly so
much comment as the prospect of
another war.
That such an event is due to rise
over the horizon is a generally ac
cepted proposition by those who
keep an eye on the world as it
whirls around on its axis. Some pro
phets are of the opinion that Mars
will make an around the world tour
most any time. They base their
conclusions on the fact that boding
clouds overhang the skies of virtu-
ally all countries that are in a posi-
tion to figure in such an event.
Peals of war thunder come from the
lips of dictators here and abroad;
it is just a matter of how long it
will take the rain drops to reach
earth, they say.
Then there are others who hold
the drama is In the offing, placing
the day of the opening performance
about five years hence. Some facts
offered to support this theory is that
the world cannot afford a war at
present. It is still paying for the
one it indulged in some 20 years ago,
and the companies who make a busi
ness of financing such events are
not going to extend any more credit
until more of the back debts are paid
up. Also it is contended that when
there is so much war talk blowing
off there is no danger of the boiler
bursting, altho others say that a
volcano is the proper descriptive
metaphor; the rumors of war are
harbingers of its approach. It is only
a matter of time until the world will
be as completely showered with bul
lets as Pompeii was with ashes when
Vesuvius erupted in 79 A. D. How
ever at best such prophesies are
theoretical propositions. It will ar
rive in due season, but the chances
ear that the factors which are
bringing It about havenot even been
considered by those who have been
making calculations.

spread over their facee when King
Alexander was assassinated, although
this event so far has not had enough
significance to advance the price of
munition stocks a single point.
Then there has been a lot of spec
ulation as to what kind of a show
the next world war will be when it
is staged. All are agreed that the
drama will be a tragedy, but its ex
act nature, how many acts, bow
many characters—that is the ques
tion. Some predict that it will not
be confined to the male members of
O. Henry’s "four million," but that
“the 400" will fall in the fray as
well. In this respect, they say, it
will be a sort of a Shakesperian trag
edy in which those high in authority
will be blotted out. It is argued that
the science and art of war has been
so perfected that there will be no
front line trenches. And if the re
ports on the latest models of war
juggernauts are correct, this would
seem plausible, altho it is hard to
feature the DuPonts et al sitting at
their desks tilling orders for kill
ing devices which would necessitate
their wearing gas masks, etc., while
doing so.
On the other hand there are some
who use these very facts to prove
that the next war will end about the
same time it is declared. The ob
ject of fighting, they say. Is to ob
tain booty. But if the art of kill
ing has been so perfect that mu
tual annihilation will take place,
there will be no object. Therefore,
according to these theorists, the nat
ions will get together in a pow pow
and agree to hammer the swords in
to ploughshares; peace, if not har
mony, will be established, and this
argument has its plausible aspects.
Yet in the heat of rage conse
quences are often overlooked. Facts
and figures have been carefully com
piled to prove beyond all question
of doubt that war has always been
in the long run a losing proposition
for all parties concerned. A review
of all wars In which this nation has
participated reveals that they have
stirred up more issues than they set
tled and the issues they did settle
could have been peacably negotiat
ed. Yet, notwithstanding, another
world war is inevitable, or Is it?

“Train Robbing More Honorable in 1926” : :
J J
Walter M. Pierce was Governor when Eastern
Oregon Normal School located at LaGrande.
From The East Oregonian, Wednesday, December 22, 1926.
“TRAIN ROBBING MORE HONORABLE”
"There is no animosity between Pendleton and LaGrande
over the normal school subject nor should there be any.
LaGrande is a good town inhabited by good people and no one
has made any contentions to the contrary.
"But the problem of locating a normal school for eastern
Oregon is a matter that should be handled independently of the
Interests of any community. The normal school regents are un
der oath to serve the students who come under their jurisdiction.
It is a very high obligation; a man who is not ready to comply
with his obligations, regardless of personal interests, Is not fit
to be a member of any board of regents. That goes and the sub
ject is not debatable any more than is bank robbing debatable.
"The East Oregonian is indignant about the normal school
decision, not because LaGrande was chosen, but because this pa
per is convinced beyond any doubt that the decision was brought
about by improper methods. On the face of things there was
something wrong. Advance stories that the thing was all fixed
and would be carried out, merit or no merit, have been confirmed
In detail. The finger of suspicion points plainly to the door of
Governor Pierce and the suspicion is general in LaGrande as
well as elsewhere.
"In plain English a swindle Is contemplated against the fu-
ture school girls of eastern Oregon and sportmanship does not
require that anyone keep silent when a plot of that sort is afoot.
Most of the prospective normal school students of eastern Oregon
reside in the 12 counties west of the Blue mountains. The heavy
population is there and It always will be found in that part of
the district. If these girls are forced to go to LaGrande for nor
mal training they will be subjected each year to a minimum un
necessary expense of $21.44 for train fare alone. If they eat
while traveling or pay Pullman charges their expenses will be
still further increased. It is the literal truth, which no one has
denied or can deny, that the location of the school in LaGrande
places upon students from the major part of the district an ex
tra expense burden equal to the cost of living for a month at a
dormitory. Such a load If imposed will compel many a good
student to go home before her normal training has been com
pleted. To a student who is self supporting, or partly so, a $10
bill often seems as big as a house. Every year In Oregon hun
dreds of students are forced out of our higher institutions of
learning by inability to meet a month’s board bill.
"When they voted at Salem Monday five of the normal
school regents, led by Governor Pierce, overlooked the one phase
of their duty that should have counted with them above all other
considerations whatsoever. If that sort of stuff is to be tolera
ted and continued by people in high places in Oregon it will be
proper for our people to repeal the law against train robbing.”
HOW TIMES DO CHANGE!
Now, with the same Walter M. Pierce, candidate for Con
gress, The East Oregonian of October 17, 1934, says:
“Mr. Pierce Has Pronounced Personal Ability
"Mr. Pierce is entitled to a second term and the district Is
entitled to the advantages that will accrue through his reelect
ion.”
The aged Mr. Pierce is now acceptable to The East Orego
nian, but with his oratory, hand-shaking and promises, promises,
