AS A LARGE BANK
VIEWS THE WAR
The viewpiont of one of the country'!
largest financial institution as to the
European war ii of interest Below are
given eitractf from a recent financial
letter issued by the National City
Bank, of Chicago.
Extraordinary complicatione attend
ing the outbreak of war in Europe
have caused a paralysis of business on
all the great markets, and construct
ive enterprises every where have teen
checked. The American market has
come to be the most important finan
cial center of the world for the time
being, because the London bill of ex
change, hitherto accepted everywhere
as the standard of payment, is no long
er readily available for conversion into
cash. The hold-up of business gener
ally has been wholly unprecedented,
and although ocean transportation is
being gradually resumed, it is possible
only with the aid of war risk protec
tion. , Europe's credit machinery has
broken down absolutely, so that a
moratorium has had to be resorted to as
the only means of preventing financial
chaos. In spite cf the fact that w
shipped $'0,u00,000 gold in the closing
days of July, and about $16O,(HiO,0uO
since the year opened, the foreign
markets would unquestionably have
taken 100,000.000 more gold had it not
been for the combined efforts of the
banks to prevent it.
The real conllagrationn started with
Germany's declaration of war against
Russia on August 1. A few days be
fore that Austria had declared war on
Scrvia and developments were so sen
sational as to indicate that all of the
great powers of Europe would inevit
ably be drawn into the conflict. The
struggle now takes in nine or ten na
tions, "whose residents comprise more
than half the population of the world,
and while it ia probable that the
sphere of disturbance will not extend,
the disruption is so extraordinary as
to make it impossible for anyone to
forecast the future. Professor Charles
Hichet, of the University of Paris, has
estimated the cost of sustaining the
armies at virtually $50,000,000 a day,
and this, of course, does not include
the frightful waste represented by the
withdrawal of several million men
from the productive industries. Prob
ably no economist could estimate with
any accuracy the total cost to the civil
ized world of such a war, but there is
little doubt that the struggle will be
altogether the most costly of the kind
that the world has ever sten. Europe
will be wrestling with the burdens for
years to come and future generations
will have to pay heavily for this great
crime of the twentieth century. Hut
the hope is that some way will be
found lor ending the struggle witnin
a few months. Admiral Mahan has
expressed the view that it will be a
long war, and some European experts
have taken similar ground. But the
sufferings of the people are so great
and the commercial burdens assumed
so heavy that some basis is afforded
for the hope that the first terrinc bat
tle on land or sea may open the way
for quick recourse to a peace tribunal.
One blessing likely to come, how
ever, will be the utter disgust of civil
ized nutions upon their realization or
the bloodshed and the total waste in
volved in this the greatest of all wars,
and possibly a keen sense of humilia
tion that such a thing could happen in
this enlightened age. Then when the
people start to pay the bills, and have
to reckon with the destruction of so
many useful lives, the sense of wrong
and injustice should be so great as to
give rise to the most extraordinary
peace movement that the worm has
ever seen. J hat in itself wouiu tie a
great achievement ; but the pity of it
is that the nations affected had to tol
erate wholesale murder before discov
ering the awful folly of it all.

NEWTON SAYS RE
PORT INCORRECT
John R. Newton, of the Cloud-Newton
Cannery Co.. says that the report
to the effect that the eight hour mini
mum wage law has been responsible
for the closing of the cannery is incor
rect. A statement to this effect was
made by a bulletin issued from Port
land. "It is news to us," said Mr. Newton
Monday morning. "I had heard noth
ing of the kind until you asked me
about it. The law you ask about does
not concern us ; for we have been al
lowed to employ our help for 10 hours."
With the pear season over, the can
nery will probably close until next sea
son's strawberry crop is ready. "We
will probably not handle any apples,"
said Mr. Newton.
"ROADS AN ASSET,"
SAYS MEDFORD MAN
Hood River valley it a Gem. We of
the Rogude River valley are inclined to
exhaust the list of superlatives in
speaking of Jour country, but e are
willing to at least admit fl at your
district is a real rival."
Such is the comment of I inj. C.
Sheldon, an orchardist rear Mid ford
and one of the active boosters i f that
hustling city, who spent Saturday and
Sunday in Hood Kivcr on a tuur of in
spection over the state.

on the investment. We first vnud Jl.-

The Supreme court knocks! it out.
Additional legislation follow. il m-.U we
tried again, this time voting a bond
issue of JoOU.OOO. This sun. is t eing
spent this year.
"We are building a J3 rr.ne scenic
boulevard over the Siskiyou mountains
with a maximum grade of si rt-rcent.
connecting at the California line with
that state a section of the nume high
way. We havel three full crews ut
work on a 17 mile section of that high
way from Ashland to MedforJ and on
to Central Point. It ia of practically
the same construction aa city pave
ment. "Southern California has been made
by its 'tourist crop.' We are after our
share and are .beginning to -n t them.
It ia a travel that brings mor.iv into a
community and leaves it thero. Hood
Kiver should have its share. The open
ing of your splendid Columbia highway
to Portland is your opportunity. The
plan of building a fine 'Im p' route
through your unrivaled (except by
Kogue River valley) orchiirils to the
base of Mount Hood is spleiulul. Don't
let anything side track that plan, (let
it in shape for 11)15, the Iihiim r year
for the Pacific coast. If the money
left in Medford by the increased auto
travel attracted there by our khoiI road
work could be collected into one fund,
it would more'than pay the ii.ti rest on
our good road bond issue.
"1 have covered about all the state
on this trip. Politics have not warmed
up yet, except in a few newspapers.
The governorship, the U. S. senator
ship and the wet and dry contests oc
cupy the field to the exclusion of other
issues. In southern .Oregon, from
Koseburg over to Klamath Kails and
Lakeview, the people are greatly in
terested in the plan to reopen their
southern Oregon State Normal school.
They are a 'good schools' people and
have learned, in many efforts to im
prove school conditions, that the key
to the situation is the trained teacher.
Fully three-fourths of the teachers of
the state are without normal school
training. Over $5,300,000 is spent an
nually in Oregon on common schools.
How much farther this money would
go in producing actual results if spent
on thorough teachers who had been
trained for their work. On grounds of
economy alone, this school should be
reopened.
"Like Hood River, we are wondering
what effect this war will have on fruit
prices. We hope for the best. Our
crop is below normal, both on account
of a frost damage and an unprecedented
dry spell. We have learned that the
former can be overcome by proper
equipment intelligently handled. We
successfully combated a temperature
of 22 last spring wheie orchards were
amply equipped. We hope this season's
dry spell will convince our skeptics of
the value of irrigation. We have water
to waste but have not heretofore in
duced enough of the orcharding to use
it to warrant an extension of the sys
tem to cover the whole valley. If that
development follows this season's
drought we could well have afforded to
lose our whole crop instead of about IT)
per cent.
"Hood River and Roguo River val
leysthe two fruit banner sections of
the. world Oregon should be proud of
both."

KNAPPS RACK FROM If
PLEASANT AUTO TOUR
J. J. Knapp and family returned last
week from a pleasant 1200 mile auto
tour. Mr. Knapp shipped bia car to
Portland and set out from there to Se
attle, going by way of Toledo, Wash.
The party visited Rainier, Olympia,
Shelton, the Satsop country. Gray's
Harbor, Pacifie-Moclipsbeach and Cen
tralia. The return was made by way
of Winlock.
While on the outing Mr. Knapp and
family motored to the foot of Nisqually
glacier. They left their machine there
and walked up to Paradise. Valley.
"I have never seen a more beautiful
spot than that wonderful valley," says
Mr. Knapp. "It is worth the while of
anyjune to visit it. We made our entire
trip without any trouble except for a
single puncture. After we reached
Chehalis, going north, we found the
best of roads."
RHEUMATISM ARRESTED
Many people suffer the torture of
lame muscles and stiffened joints because
of impurities ia the blood, and each suc
ceeding attack seems more acute until
rheumatism has i n vaded the whole system.
To arrest rheumatism it ia quite as im
portant to improve your general health as
to purify your blood, and the cod liver oil
in boott 's Kmulsion is nature'sgreat blood
maker, while its medicinal nourishment
strengthens the organs to expel the
impurities and upbuild your strength.
bcott's Kmulsion is helping thousanda
every day who could not find other relief.
Refuse the alcoholic substitutes.
Oregon Lumber Mill Closed for Repairs
"It is very quiet at Dee just now,"
said G. W. Leonard, who is operating
the Oee hotel and who was in the city
Monday on business. "The mill of the
Oregon Lumber Co. is temporarily
closed on account of a breakdown, and
a great many of the employes are away
in Portland."
Mr. Leonard has instituted a plan of
giving dances each Saturday night at
the Dee hall. "I will continue the
dances," says Mr. Leonard, "as they
are not only a source of pleasure to the
mill men, but to other residents of the
adjoining country.
Diarrhoea Quickly Cured
"Mv attention was first called toCliam
lierlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy as much as twalve years ago.
At that time 1 was seriously ill with sum
mer complaint. One dose of this reme
dy checked the trouble," writes Mrs. C.

Baker Visits Tacoma
(From Tacoma, Wash., News)
"If the apple growers, instead of be
coming discouraged and not marketing
their apples because of the poor de
mand and large supply, should put them
on the market and take the'price they
could get, the apples would sell rapidly
and the growers might get some fair
return," said Leonard A. Baker, of
Hood Kivcr, secretary of the Hood
River Apple Vinegar Company, who
was in Tacoma recently.
"In our country many carloads of
apples will go to waste this year be
cause the growers will not market
them at the low price.
Mr. Baker's vinegar plant is said to
be the largest on the coast, turning out
10,000 barrens every year.

Newspaperman Praises Priest
Will II. Griffin, managing editor of
the Uoyne City Evening Journal, a
Michigan town near Petoskey, where
Father Burchard Dietrich, the new
pastor of the local Catholic church, was
formerly located, writes the following
letter concerning the pew priest:
"When the Rev. ir. Burchard left
our city to take charge of affairs in his
line in your community 1 resolved that
I would write a letter to the newspa
pers in Hood River in behulf of this
most worthy clergyman. I do not
know what particular brand of religion
you adhere to, and wish to tell you
that, as 1 do not adhere to any, that
Fr. Burchard was one of the best men
for this community that we have ever
known and that there was not a busi
ness or professional man in the city
who did not regret losing him. We
found him a live one in every respect
and always ready to do anything for
anyone or anyone's ventures, if the
same were worthy. In short, he ia a
man whom you will always find right
concerning everything and a genuine
asset to your comunity.
