T T i.s estimated that the European war lms cost to date, in
military operations, thirteen billions of dollars. 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.

PRISON
COiMMERfTAIj fishermen and poachers of (Jranis Pass
are making a determined effort, to secure the scalp of
Ham L Sundry as chief deputy fish, warden for district
2. 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.

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

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.
