KLAMATH
CAUSE AND CURE FOR WAR
To tho Bailer:
As I understand tho now nutonio
bllo map Is to lcavo tho state high way
at Medford and to bo mapped by way
ot Crater Lake, Klamath Palls, and
back .to tho main lino at Montague.
1 think a route from Klamath to
Montague over the mountain would
bo a big undertaking, as there Is so mo
pretty heavy Rrade. There is a way
to come In tho main lino al nodding,
Cal., with a much less grade, n dis
tances of about 200 miles, from Klam
ath Falls via Merrill, Ore., through
the fertllo Klamath valley, a dis
tance of about 27 miles.
leaving Merrill wo poon como to
tho Lava Beds, to Captain Jack's
stronghold, where the bloodiest bat
tlo of the Modoc war was fought,
whero Captain Jack with his bravo
bunch of reds concealed In tho natural
caves aud runways, held at lay 3H00
Boldlors, for over eight months, cost
ing tho Uvea ot hundreds, including
General -Canby and his staff, who
was massacred nt the commencing of
tho war.
Tho postal card enclosed Is ono of
tho many caves that was tho homb of
tho Indian. (Note tho datlngs and
markings on tho wall.)
And the noted Ice caves which Is a
wonder within themselves. We Boon
como on to Lookout, Cal., the main
town of Dig Valley, and ono of the
greatest stock countries of Califor
nia, famous for Its bunch grass and
flno horFos. A dlstanco from Klam
ath Falls to Lookout.Cal., of about
112 miles, and with an averago grade
of one-tenth of ono per cent.
Wo soon como on, to Kail Hirer
Mills a dlstanco of about 35 miles
from Lookout, nnd ono of the main
town of Fall Itlver valley, tho valley
with Its trout fishing and motorboat
ing, with its, beautiful lakes and riv
ers, surrounded hy mountains with
its high snow clad peaks which arc
whllo tho year round. Fall Itlver
Mills Is at tho commencing of tho
famous Pitt Itlver canjon, ono of tho
greatest streums of northern Califor
nia for uvnllablo water pow.er, with
Its many water falls and dropping
hundreds of feet.
Leaving the deep canyon wo soon
como to tho foot of Mt. Lasben. tho
only living volcano in the United
States, whero ono gota tho best view
of tho mountain obtainable, which Is
well worth tho trip alono. (Soo pos
tal enclosed, ono of the many erup-
iloiis that la occurring every day.)
A dlstanco from Fall Itlver Mills
to lteddlng, Cal., Is about 100 miles,
which Is full of scenery and a Joy to
tho sportsman.
1 think If this matter was looked
Into It would bo it great Improvement
to tho proposed route.
Yours respectfully.

T11K primary cnusos of tho tiuropcaii win, ami, in fai't,
of all wars, aro economic trade restrictions and
trade monopolies. Hy whatever hijh-smindhi name it is
disguised, whether for liberty, as in the American revolu
tion, or for religion, as in the middle ages, or for conquest
as since the world began the underlying cause is the same
human trreed.
The exploitation of the nations of antiquity by their
more warlike neighbors, who in turn were exploited them
selves: the conquest of savage tribes and rape of their ter
ritories, the invasion of barbaric tribes and the extension
of empire are all due to underlying economic causes.
It, was the trade niononolv that, England established
with the American colonies for herself that brought their
secession. It is the struggle for the markets ot the world
that, brought on the present European conflagration. It
is the exploitation of the masses by the classes that creates
the civil wars of history. .
An Italian historian named l.oria made a study of the
causes of wars. 1 le found 125S due to economic causes,
usually trade monopolies, and 128. apparently religious, had
the same underlying cause hidden.
The other day one of the national conventions repre
senting the business men of the nation demanded protec
tion of American investments abroad, declaring it would
result in American monopoly of trade in Central and South
America and the Carribeans. In other words, they seek
the adoption of the policy that has involved Europe in war,
the monopoly of foreign trade and the use of the nation's
army and navy to secure it.
The Monroe doctrine, more than any one thing, means
eventual war for the United States, over the same old
cause monopoly of trade, sought by European nations or
by Americans, if adhered to it. is as certain to plunge the
nation into war as the sun to rise. "Whatever nation conies
out victor in Europe is going to seek trade monopoly
abroad. Remove trade restrictions and there is no cause
for a Monroe doctrine.
Neither- great armaments nor lack of armaments,
neither peaceful industry nor militarism will guarantee
peace upon the earth as long as the underlying causes con
tinue to exist and these causes are protective and prefer
ential and discriminating and reciprocal tariffs that create
and perpetuate trade monopolies.
The real preventative for war is universal free trade,
the right of every nation to market its products without
artificial restrictions. Each nation must be permitted to
buy and to sell on equal terms with all other nations, and
when this is the case the cause of war is eliminated. As
long as nations continue to secure special advantages over
other nations the friction producing war, will continue.
When the time conies for President Wilson to volun
teer his services as peacemaker, it should not be upon lines
of proportionate disarmament, as "President Taft suggests,
for sooner or later the old conditions will reappear, as
long as the cause is left undisturbed, but upon the lines
of universal abolition of tariffs throughout the world and
universal free trade as removing the cause of war.
Nations care nothing for governing distant colonies,
but they do caro for the trade monopoly they are thereby
enabled to secure and the. struggle for commercial
supremacy brings on the physical contest to secure it, and
it is for this that armaments are maintained..
Remove the cause of war and armaments will disappear
as needless, militarism will collapse, and for the first time
in the world's history permanent peace be an actuality.

Food Vuule or Wild IMrtls nnd Anl
roabi . .
The game of the state is worth np
proximntcly $800,000 annually from
the food standpoint. In the neigh
borhood of ,000 deer, l.')0,000 ducks,
1.1,000 Chinese pheasants nre killed
niinimlly. When we ennxshler !'
the numhers of jrnuse, qunil, c,cete,

meat U worth from twelve to siNteen
cents per pound, whether it is on the
tuhle of tho fnnner, tho mountaineer
or the merehnpt, it mean u Ijih: in
eome to our jeople. A pouml of trout

cents from n ineal stiuidpoiiil. A
vnht umntint of ptmo fish is tnkon

becomes the duty of tho stnto to
propagate nil kinds of gnmo and

poor man and his family.
Is It Not n (i'ikmI Investment
From tin eeonomic nnd business
standpoint, the game nnd other wild
erentures of the slnto nre worth .f.V
000,000 nnnunlly to us. This is not
placing (i high estimnte on these rt
Hourecs. During tho past year the
fish und game eonunision has ex
pended $1. '10,000 to protect nnd de
velop our game resources. This is an
c.xpondituie of two per cent a mr
on the investment. The expenditure
I is necessary if wo nre to inerense the

from 8.'),000 (o 00.000 of these res'i

hunting or fishing some time during
the year. This shows we nre an out

Mate to furnish this leureation.
A huge amount of monoy is derived
nnnunlly from tho hunting und trap

is a crop that is, worth $100,000 year

revenue derived goe directly to the
homesteader and the settler who
needs it to develop his propcity. The
