OTRAXGE! There has been considerable, newg about this semi-
royal marriage in London today, but no strew has been laid tipon
the fact that it is a love match.
Doubly strange for royal weddings are always love matches to
the press agents. There hasn't been a royal wedding in the last two
hundred years that hasn't been heralded in the press as a love match.
Perhaps that is because they never were. ' And perhaps silence
regarding this wedding is due to the fact that it obviously is.
AVe know nothing about this romantic affair, wh'ieh is absorbing
the interest of the British Empire today, but that is no reason why
tve should not wager a box of cigars against a million roubles' that
these two young people are marrying each other today for the very
good and sufficient reason that they are crazy about each other, .
;
Certainly that must be the reason for the Duke of York marrying
a "commoner." He must have been in a position to pick and choose.
And the fact is established that he proposed at least three times before
he won her.
As for Lady Elizabeth Rowes-Lyon she must have been very much
in love. Otherwise she would have accepted the Duke the first time.
Girls with their heart on a brilliant alliance don't take chances.
There is additional evidence. To a young1 woman in Lady Eliza
beth's position there is no allure in being a duchess. Ilcr social po
sition could not be more attractive than it is. She is a favored mem
ber of the British aristocracy, which is far better fun than being a
member of the nobility or the royal family. The only girls dazzled
by a title are those who know nothing about them.
The business of being a duchess will he rather' a bore. Being a
princess will be worse. No longer will she belong to herself, but to
'.he British empire. Personal freedom willvanish. She will no longer
be able to say what she thinks, do as she likes, or run about with
whom she wishes. There will have to be a lady-in-waiting, court func
tions, attending church dedications,' fancy work bazars, no' end of
fuss and feathers and fol de rol, and nonsense.
Lady Elizabeth knew nil this. She could have had no illusions.
She must perforce, have loved the Duke mightily to, have refused him
three times and then decided that living with him was worth the sac
rifice. '
So this is a love match. It can be nothing else. And everyone
should be glad. For in spite of tho cynics and the United B. of B.,
the only insurance against matrimonial disaster, is an arrow straight
through the hearts of both participants.

FOR THE CHILDREN.

1 WATCH James Beeswax dig nnd delve, nnd hoe long rows of
peas; I watch him ply the ax's helvo nnd chop down banyan
trees; he labors that his children twelve may bask on beds of ease.
His lifo hns 'been a weary road, he's never paused n day to loaf
around his cheap abode, sonic checker games to play; ho's always
borne his heavy load along an endless way. "I would not have
my bright sons tread a weary path like mine, my daughters must
not earn their bread in toil that breaks the spine; I'd have thorn
nil," he's often said, "be gents and ladies fine." He labors like
a house afire, while yet his years advance; his children have the
gay attire, tho joyride and the dance, and all the curves they may
desiro of pump and circumstance. "When 1 am gone," James
Beeswax Highs' "my minis will love me well; these little male
nnd female guys will hear my passing bell, ami wipe the teardrops
from their eyes, nnd loving tales they'll tell. They'll stand
around my costly grave, composed of boneynrd soil, and tell of
all the strength I gavo to ntako tho kettle boil, of how I wrought
through life to save their hands from brutal toil." Perhaps
they'll follow up this plan; perhaps they'll blush to think their
father was n toilworn man whose clothes were on the blink, who
packed his dinner in a enn, nnd wore his galwnys pink.
Forest Protection Means
' ' Prosperity in This State
TKlrty-flve' per cent of the- gross
inoome iifrom the national . foresta
within OrBon is all to tha state In
lieu of tuxes, in addition, tho fede
ral jrovernment spends several mil
lion dollar . each year In - building
roads within and adjacent to the na
tional forests. '
61 nee 1917, between I2.S00.000 and
13,000,000 has .been either paid to the
State of Oregon or spent in building
roads within or adjacent to the na
tional forest of this state. .
The receipts to the state from thlH
source are steadily Increasing, in splto
of. the fact that the national forestn
are restricted to the higher moun
tain regions and more remote regions:
These forests are being developed so
aa to provide a permanent supply ot;
timber through the growing of young
timber-to replace the ripe timber as
It is cut. This will mean permanent
enikloyment for labor, permanent lo
cution for capital in lumbering and
permanent communities in and near
the national forests.
Aa a result of the failure to pro
tect the forest lands, there are in
.Michigan today deserted towns, aban
doned mills and millions of acres of
idle burnt-over land which has re
verted to the' state for non-payment
of taxes. The permunence of the
lumber Industry and the continued
prosperity .of 'the forest regionB of
this .state depend largely upon the
prevention of forest fires.
Hurnt forests pay no taxes, employ
no labor nnd yi-ld no Income.
. W. W. STRIKE ON
TACOMA, April 2G. Reports from
various sections of southwest Wash
ington today Indicated that the strike
called by the I. W. W. In the lumber
camps has Bpread. Approximately
twice as many men are. out today as
had quite work yesterday. Logging
operators, however, express the gen
eral opinion that the strike has reach
ed its crest and that all the men have
quit work who intend doing so.
The strike came as a surprise. The
1. W. W. in this district had origin
ally planned to call the strike on May
2, but the date was changed, accord
ing to circulars In the .hands of the
authorities, In order to take the lum
ber Industry by surprise. "
A nnmber of camps have been
closed by the strike, and today It
was Indicated that approximately 8,
000 men in this district are off their
jobs.
FIST FIGHT ENDS
E
PORTLAND, Ore., ' April ' 26.-A
fist fight between two attorneys
marked the closing here today of the
hearing before Examiner W. W.
Bheppard of the federal trade com
mission of charges of conspiracy in
restraint of trmlo against the Doug-
las Fir Exploitation and Export com
pany. J. B. Carter of San Francisco, at
torney representing one of the re
spondents in the case, led out with a
punrh nt the head of Henry W. Beer,
government counsel, and Beer landed
back at his antagonist.
The clash came us the climax of
feeling between counsel on both sides
which had been displayed at various
times during the oust week of the
hearing here. Carter's ire was arous
ed by remarks which Beer had made
this- morning. Bystanders separated
the two attorneys, who apologised to
Bheppard.
