If prolonged to the end of the year, the cost will be twenty mnions. Ihis does not include the enormous destruction of property; the human wreckage, the maimed and the loss of minions 01 uschil lives. .No estimate can figure the encv moiis loss to the world caused by this needless and sense less conflict this relapse into barbarism of civilization. The nations that have to pay these losses at the conclus ion of the conflict, will find themselves hopelessly impov erished, with their earning capacity enormously decreased. The Europe of before the war was still paying debts in curred by the Napoleonic wars. The Europe of a century hence will still be paying the burdens enforced by the pres ent coin net. "After us the deluge" is evidently the motto of; Euro pean rulers and the deluge of revolution will follow at tempts to enforce the toilers of the future to pay for the crime of the present, just as the French revolution fol owed the crazy extravagances of the Bourbons. "Who is to pay for this dance of Mars? Who pays for the mad monarch's dance of death? Who but the people. And there can be but one outcome more poverty, more misery, more disease. The products of poverty throughout Europe will be increased many fold. Conditions will be come intolerable. Life will not be worth the living as the ruin begun by the war multiplies. What will be, the result?" Probably revolution and re pudiation, a reorganization along new lines as the old order passeth. For a civilization that has war as its outcome, if not as its ideal deserves to perish Ironi the lace of tho earth as a miserable failure.

J)r. ,J. O. Smith, who for some .veal's has been their representative in the sat to senate, appeared before the new game commission, demanding Sundry's scalp and the ap pointment of his political henchman assistant, Updyke, as warden. Senator Smith's record at Salem is unique. Hy stand ing in with the senate "organization" he secures chairman ship of the engrossing committee, appoints Mr. Updyke as chief clerk, All's. Smith and his niece as deputies quite a family affair. By sacrificing all other legislation, that is, trading his votes, on all nfeasures to the senate clique ii control, for support for his own bill reopening tho upper Rogue river to commercial fishing, he secured votes enough to pass the measure, nullifving the expressed will of the People over the governor's veto. As he himself expressed I i . i i i i i 1 1 n, in a Hpcccn ior tuc diii: " I voted for you fellows all along the line. This is the only thing I asked', and you've got lo stand with mo." And they did. The merits of (he legislation enacted did not figure at all. The welfare of the people of Qregon did not matter. Senator Smith followed tho same tactics during the re cent session, lie introduced a bill opening the entire Rogue river to commercial fishing, removing all restric tions, lie stood pat with the senate ring throughout, and while, on account of tho aggressive fight by the .Jackson county delegation, he was not able to pass this bill to aid Vouchers, he secured support enough to prevent the repeal of the law he forced through the previous session. The opposition to Sandry, outside of Senator Smith's desire to provide a berth for his assistant, comes from the poachers, whom he has arrested and convicted. Most of them are market fishermen and include a lawless element. They cannot be blamed for wanting a vigilant officer re moved and replaced by a man of their own selection, bu( the idea of punishing a faithful official for fearlessly en forcing the law can only be satisfactory to the poacher. Mr. Sandry has been an efficient warden for the past seven yours. No has acquired a knowledge of the district and its people that it would take years for a new man to acquire. He has earned reappointment. The lawbreak ers certainly are not the ones to name the law-enforcers. d. To tho Editer: The disgraceful nnd un-Amcricnn expressions of certain German news papers in this country mint bring a blush of slinmc to the cheeks of their rentiers who hold their oath of itllc,' inneo to tlu- United State n u sncreir thing. This in America and the citt zon who cannot mid will not stand by lws government in time of interna tional trouble h not nn American in nny sense of tho word, In Germany tho government makes short work of the newspapers that aro disloyal, cither in time of caec or time of war, nnd they put the editor in jail. In America, the land of free dom, it is different; hut that does not mean that tho government must tol erate every form of insult just be cause of our constitutional guaranty of "the freedom of the press." We hnyo but one president nnd ono government in thi country, nnd to insult cither is to insult every loyal citizen of tho land. Every Americnn cjtir.cn, regardlet-s of birth or former allegiance, enjoys the snmc equal rights and privilege? under tho Ktars find Stripes, but his government also expects of him to do his full duty. If he cannot do this he had better clear out. This country is large, but it is not large enough to sparo an inch of ground to the fellow who would breed disloyalty umong certain citizen either by word or wn in such erilic.tl times lis these. The Gorman-American citizen, wi are confident, will be true to his adopted country in auv crisis, but the same cannot be snid, in tho present great crisis, of the German-American press ns n whole. Nearly nil Geniion-American nro pcncefnl citizens many are prosper ous, gire their children a good edu cation, etc., nnd all admit thankfully that thev do so much better in this great country "of the Stars nnd Stripes forever." Hut these German editors must stop insulting our presi dent, government nnd stnte officials, who were elected by a majority of Americans, and lifter they arc in of fice arc highly honored by nil of us. These yellow sheet editorials should he gently reminded that after tho Ilaymnrkct riot in Chicago, Judge Gary had two, smooth-looking, well. educated Germans, who hud no hand in the riot, hung with three other nn nrohihts. They were the Spies broth ers, editors of n flaming anarchistic sheet. At that time the firmament wns clear, not even the remotest speck of n war cloud on the blue sky. Wo nli regret that this eminent jur ist, Judge Gnrv, is no more. Hut 1 say there is plenty of rope to be had all through thn country. IF. E. KREtTKIi. .,Qg!r 'M HOW'S THIS?
