The entire easualties thus fur, hiive proljably not equalled those of one nijdit on the front in the World war, when there was nothing of im portance to report. But the net result of the conflict promises to be, far from a joke. For what the world Is now witnessing is in Jvnlity the awakening of the sleeping yellow tiinnt. ' For centimes China has Ijccd moribund. I'ntil very recently she had no army had no militant spirit, was content to drift along the paths of least resistance, the helpless tool of foreign interests. Hut a decade ago a young China was born, a mere atom of en lightenment and initiative in the seething mass of millions, but a force nevertheless, and a force that lias steadily grown. Today it is this Young China under the command of 'General AVu which is apparently sweeping the military brigands from the Coun try, and preparing to establish, a united China, supported by a mod ern, well trained army of several hundred thousand fighting men. In short the long awaited awakening of China has actually begun. It may not be the menace to the white world that Koine historians have predicted. But it will be a determining factor in that world, a force that our grand children and great-grandchildren will he called upon to meet, involving a problem, they will be called upon to solve. The United States has been the greatest friend China ever had. I'pon such disinterested service to China as the recnt disarmament parley in AVashington witnessed, rests the foundation of hope that n new and awakened China, will be a friend of American purposes and ideals, rather than a foe.

Three of Babe Ruth's home run rivals had forg ed still further ahead of the Yankee slugger today as the result of a simul taneous skirmish yesterday. Ken Wil liams of the St. Louis Browns, who has been in a woeful slump for several weeks, cracked out his fifteenth cir cuit drive. Rogers Hornsby, his Na tional league fellow townsman, drove out his fourteenth, and fling Miller of the Athletics collected his thirteenth. The Cardinals went on a swatting rampage against Philadelphia, and tied their own major league record of ten inning. "When a man swells up with the notion that nobody else can handle his job, it isn't long unlit there is a strung'! name on the pay roll. That' Canadian woman wlio killed her husband with a butcher knife, will cause every housewife to wonder how she got the thing sharpenough. . .. 1 All Star Cast at R o If we told our patrons everything about Wally Held, C.lorie Swanson and Kllict Dexter in "Don't Tell Every thing" we'd never finish talking.

But wo mustn't toll everything or you'll tear tho Kialto theatre down trying to get in tomorrow. i There appears to be a general understanding that national econ omy is something that won't increase the deficit more than 10 per cent n year. Trailing the Phillies to G to 3 in the sixth, the westerners opened a barrage against Meadows and Winters that brought seven runs across the plate. Fourier began and ended the hitting streak in this inning, with a single. Altogether the Cardinals gathered twenty-three hits, five by I.avan and four each by Hornsby and Jack Smith. The score was 14 to 8 Williams' clout with one on In the first inning, gave St. Louis enough runs to check the 'Yankees' winning streak, although the Browns continued Sea Picture at Page to hit Joe Bush and made the count i That the public Is still In favor of I to 1, while their college recruit.

Apple and Pear Exporters Organized PORTLAND, June 13 An important step forward in marketing northwes tern fruits abroad was taken recently when II. F. Davidson, who has large orchard interests in Hond River, J. Macpheo Fergus in, an orchardlst of Yakima, Wash., and Edwin Smith, of tho Traffic association at Wenatchco, Wash., joined In organizing the Fruit Export Corporation. This is tho first concerted effort by northwestern operators to establish a direct European ofl'lco for handling Oregon and Washington fruits, and as this new concern is not financially in terested In any European commission houses or brokorugo firms they are in a position to deal with any or all of them, which opens tho opportunity to dispose of the fruit on the best market and to the dealer offering the best prices Tho combination of tonnage from tho threo largo producing dis tricts will attract tho attention of steamship companies and will make it to their interests to provide more sat isfactory service at minimum cost to growers and shipper's and as tho Fruit j ExjKirt Corporation is made up of strictly northwestern men experienced in the fruit business tho hcvt Interests of the northwest will bo protected t tho fullest extent possible, in matters of both transportation and marketing. Mr. Davidson has been located in' New York City some ton years, wliere he has been engaged principally in ex porting apples and pears to various countries of the world, especially to Europe. Mr. Ferguson was engaged In fruit marketing in Great Britain for a number of years ooforo coming to America and has beon successfully ex porting large quantities of apples from' tho Yakima district for the past tenj years. Mr. Ferguson will spend July and August In Europe establishing tho European ofl'ico of the Fruit Export corporation and arrango all details for handling future business. Mr. Smith spent tho summer of 11121 in Europe investigating - marketing conditions, and since his return has boon engaged In exporting apples from the Wenat cheo district. Extensive dock and cold storage fa cilities have been provided by the pub lic dock commission in Seattle, and at a recent meeting of the Public Dock commission of the Port of Portland It was decided to construct n large apple storage warehouse at one of the ter minals in rortlamt, and tho new organ ization expects to make largo use of theso facilities. BT. RipplmgRhijitiGS MAKING THE BEST. JOHN .1ACKKNKON. of Houlderside. made post holes for the trade; and, nil the users testified. "The finest postholos made." lie stalled making them by hand, one posthole at it time; but soon there rose a great Jetuand from every shore and clime. And so he hired a hundred men to help bint at his chore, and still his trade increased, mid then he hired five hundred mure. And nowiis factory extends for half n mile or so. anil all his customers are friends who boost him high and low. For every posthole from his works is perfect as can be, inspected by a doz en clerks, who any flaw would see. Ye know 1 liaS in the posthole trade there's many a tawdry trick; a lot of worthless holes are made by skates who'd get rich tpiick. Hut when they come from Houlderside no fears disturb your souls, for Jackensou. he takes n pride in selling perfect holes. Anil so, while other makers claim that trade is on the hum. this Jackensou. who plays the game, sees mighty orders come. Knob day he sees his business grow, and grow, and grow ngnin: and every other week or so he adds five hundred men. a lover, as Shakespeuro declared, will be demonstrated at the Page theatre where "Moran of the l.ady Letty" opens today for a four day run. Tho Frank Norrls story is pure ro mance and adventure unburdened with a single problem and untormented by any message except one of goefd cheer, optimism and faith in youth. And the scene of the romance Is the great stretch of ocean on tho blHoV's and up-mounting waves of which the good ship Lady Letty rides flying her valiant flag and plying her hazardous way. There is a heroine who dresses like a man but is as feminine as a frill, and there is a hero that dresses like a fop and is as masculine as tho soldiers chorus from "Faust." Rudolph Valentino plays the rolo of tho hero who is rudely snatched from his social existence In San Francisco and thrust before tho mast, as ignpr: nut of thoi traditions of the son as a native of tho high Alps. Dorothy Dal ton plays tho difficult rolo of Moran of the Lady Letty, who In losing hot father, commander of the craft, be comes heiress to his joli of keeping in their places a mutinous, cut-throat crew.
