Lord Kitchner believes that Europe
will not begin to see daylight under
less than a year. But Kitchner was
among those that anticipated that the
Boer war would not last more than
six months, though it dragged on for
three years. The truth is that nobody
knows, and a soldier’s guesswork is
not much better than that of anyone
else.—Umpqua Valley News.
The Carlton Sentinel says: “So far,
The Willamina Times is the only pa

The average

God is called upon by the warring
rulers of Europe to aid them in the
Devil’s business of war. These prc
sumptious individuals do not really
worship God, but rather a defied Mo
loch who deals in wholesale death
and distruction to men, animals and
property; a savage God who in their
imaginations descends to man's puny
level and kills for commercial ag
grandizement and political advantage.
Their God must be a brutish, savage
beast. Has two thousand years of
Christianity taught these exaultcd,
self-appointed rulers nothing?
In
their wild desire to rule more terri
tory that they may gather more taxes
to be used in riotous living, in pomp
and ceremony, and in furtherance of
their vainglorious displays of pomp

SOFT DRINK TAX MOVED.
House Argues Wine and Beer Are
Not Only Luxuries.
Washington, August 31.—A stamp
tax on soft drinks, as well as beer and
patent medicines, is contemplated by
members of the House ways and
means committee which is preparing
an emergency from an eternal rev
enue bill to offset treasury losses due
to curtailment of imports. It is urg
ed that soft drinks are as much lux
uries as wines and beer and that a
equitable disturbance of the tax bur
den among all consumers would be
accomplished by this plan.
Another suggestion is a stamp tax
of 5 or to per cent on railroad tickets
and admission to theaters, baseball
parks and other licensed amusements.
It is estimated that from $50,000,000
to $80,000,000 could be raised in that
way.
The committee lias not determined
upon a complete taxation plan as yet.
but aims to hasten its deliberations,
that a bill may be introduced soon
after President Wilson
addresses
Congress on the subject, which prob
ably will be immediately on his re
turn from New Hampshire. Admin
istration leaders are impressed with
the necessity of quick action to dis
turb business conditions as little as
possible.
Democrats of the Senate will dis
cuss the emergency in a party caucus
to be called later this week.
A doubling of the present tax on
beer, it is estimated by Treasury ex-
perts, would produce
$65,000,000.
Some committee members, however,
feel that taxation of commodities
other than beer and patent medicines
would cause less pupulaf friction.
Among the committee Democrat ■>
there has been some opposition to
any war tax at all this session, the
contention being that there is plcrtj
of available money for present needs.
Maude Muller to Date.
"Maude Muller, on a summer’s day
raked the meadows sweet with hay.
And she raked, in the early morn,
she heard the honk of the Claxton
horn. Anon there drifted on the scene
a car, propelled by gasoline.
The Judge rode up in motor car and
said to Maude: "Ah, there you are!”
He killed his engine in the shade of
the apple tree, to chin the maid. He
spoke of the milage on his tires, as is
the way of all good liars.
He said
his car was quite the best and had the
edge on all the rest. He invited
Maude to take a ride, and, nothing

some more. He cranked and cranked
and cranked till he reeked with
sweat, and cranked till after the sun
had set. He cranked away with a
right good will and, the chances a arc,
he is cranking still. And of all de-
vices with which we’re cursed, the
auto crank is about the worst.—Ex.
Artisans Clam Bake Excursion.
(From the Artisan.)
The Clam Bake Excursion has come
and gone and in writing of it brings
only happy recollections.
It was surely a success from start
to finish, and why not? Wasn’t that
special train loaded with people bent
on having a good time themselves as
well as giving everyone else on that
train a good time? And they did it.
Such a lot of happy, beaming faces
everywhere was a treat. And the
children—God bless them—were hap
py too.
And then there was that big carload
of eager, happy little souls in charge
of Mrs. Thorram and Mrs. Bondur
ant of the Associated Charities—who
was a blessed benedetion to our trip,
for isn’t it good to be permitted to
share our joys and blessings with our
fellow creatures, especially when
they have so little in life to make
them happy? So it was good to see
these happy little ones anxiously
watching for their first glimpse of the
sea. Our band played for them, our
singers sang for them, and we all
loved them, very one—from the little
fair-haired cripple girl on crutches to
the big husky boy with freckles, who
liked the hills and trees and sunshine
better than he did baseball.
At Bay City Mr. Baker represent
ing the Mayor of Tillamook, boarded
our train with his committee, and in a
few well chosen words delivered the
keys of the city over to the supreme
Master Artisan, H. S. Hudson. The
latter on behalf of the United Arti
sans present accepted the City of I il
lamook's hospitality graciously and in
his usual kindly manner. A few min
utes later we reached our destination
—still happy and thankful for such a
cordial welcome.
The delegation that met us at the
train lacked neither in number or en
thusiasm, for even the children of 1 il
lamook were there with fruit and
flowers for the strangers. Next came
an auto ride for everybody from the
station to our hotels, and later we
went cn mass to the Armory where
one of the finest suppers ever set be
fore mortal man was served. And say,
weren't we hungry and didn’t we all
just eat, and eat, and eat.
"Wasn't it great? Wonderful spread
that! Gee, but didn't everything taste
good,” is what we heard on every
hand, how hard and faithful those who
served us did work, and can we ever
repay their kindness or cease to ap
preciate their hospitality, I wonder?
We asked for their names and this
is what the writer got: Mrs. E. O'-
Ilarra, Mrs. C. P. Briggs, Mrs. Della
Hoover, Mrs. Dr. Daniel . Mrs. I II.
Dunston, and Mr. Fred Williams, Mr.
Thomas Higgcnbothani and Mr. J. II.
Dunstan.
The program and dance at the
Commercial Club rooms in the even

what do we hear? Why, this is what
we hear on every hand :'*When are the
Artisans going to have another ex
cursion to Tillamook?"
The <iay at Bar View was glorious
and thoroughly enjoyed by every
body, and there too we received a
most royal welcome by the citizens
and the members of the Bar View
Beach Progressive Club.
Mr. Wilson is evidently getting a
clcarier idea of the mainsprings of
much Mexican politic*. He said to a
number of callers at the White House
that commercial and financial inlet
ests were seeking to precipitate new
complications, to arise between Car
ranza and Villa, as a means of forc
ing intervention by the United States.
That is a half view, but is a wider one
than Mr. Wilton was taking more
than a year ago, and shows, accord
ingly, that experience has not been
lost on him. The other half may be
that the Villa attitude is being pro
moted not so much to force interven
tion a* to force grants and concess
ions from the Carranza adininistra
lion or any administration which
may soon succeed it. There are so
many angles to Mexican politics that
the presiilcut cannot be expected to
have learned all of them in eighteen
months, and the private advisers and
personal representatives he has sent
into the country appear to have only
partially informed him of the nature
and essence of Mexican revolution
ary politic*. It is much to be doubt
ed, in fact, whether, invading the
country as they did. tiny were ever
able to learn these things for them
selves.
