Marconi says America can win the
„ar with flyers. Speaking officially
he said: “The airplane is an enormous
factor in this conflict and will, 1 be­
lieve, grow even more decisive. The
United States will be looked to for
this contribution in a great measure.
It will require a hundred thousand
flying machines to subordinate the
other methods of war to the air
' fighting; 10,000 would help mightily
but they could not settle the war; too-
oou, 1 think, would. If an overwhelm­
ing force of airplanes could be mus­
tered so that the enemy flyers would
be driven from the air, they would be
helpless in ranging and directing ar­
tillery, ami would, of course, be at an
incalculable
disadvantage. — Tele­

The ovation tendered by the people
of France to General Pershing and
the members of his staff is of course
intended as a tribute to the American
nation as a whole. The joyous acclaim
of welcome accorded Pershing more­
over, is a hint of the reception that
awaits American troops when they
reach France on their way to the
front. It is going to be a rare privi­
lege to participate in this experience,
a privilege that considerably will
compensate for the sterner duties and
more arduous work which will follow.
But it is good to know that American
troops which go to France will still
be among real friends, whose admira­
tion, loyalty and desire to be of ser­
vice, will equal similar tendencies on
the part of the friends at home. Mili­
tary service in France is not going to
be entirely confined to a dull and
monotonous grind. The American
soldiers will be “heroes” in the eyes
of the French from the minute they
land.—Observer.
Three billion dollars in round fig-
urcs, or one half more than called for
was subscribed to the Liberty Loan.
Secretary McAdoo after thanking the
banks and citizens generally who
acted as committees for the sale of
Liberty bonds, said: ‘Without gen­
erous and patriotic support
__ of the
__
press of the nation, the hope of those
in charge that it W’ould be a popular
loan would not have been realized.
The untiring efforts of the newspa­
pers throughout the campaign were a
constant inspiration to the various
groups of other workers. The foreign
language press in 36 languages, gave
daily proof of the undoubting loyalty
of peoples of foreign birth. Countless
other kinds
of publicity were
contributed generously. Alt this and
more was done to make the loan a
success. It was done without thought
of return, simply to aid the govern­
ment. 1 shall be most grateful to the
press it this acknowledgement is giv­
en publicity.”
Make An End of Anarchy.
For some years past, Oregon has
been noted as a state of uncertainties
for the investor, due to freak and
radical legislation.
The reaction
came, however, and in recent elec­
tions the voters turned down every­
thing of an experimental nature and
Oregon has been slowly climbing out
°i tiie mire of bad advertising into
which it had fallen.
In the mean time, a set of new of­
ficials have been put into the public
utility commission and some of them
are not familiar with the past condi­
tions in the state against which the
people turned at the polls.
I o popularize themselves and in an
effort to secure votes at the next elec­
tion, they seem to be playing up the
time worn arguments of down with
the corporations. I hey have made un­
necessary reduction ’ in rates of the
largest light and power company in
the state which has been struggling
to get on its feet after several years,
during which time it did not make in­
terest 011 its indebtedness.
Now they take the case of the rail­
roads asking advances in freight rates
and practically decide it in advance
and seem to advocate that no increase
be allowed regardless of the justice
of the matter.
1 hese tactics do not help Oregon
and such decisions arc doing more to
keep the state at the bottom of the
list of western states in manufactur­
ing and growth in population than
anythin" else.
To see the lumbermen fight a 15
percent increase in freight rates
when they themselves have doubled
the price of their own products is
lauglvable. Due to the increase cost of
lumber, the United States will pay
millions additional for the ships it
builds to fight the submarines.
This is simply an illustration, as
practically every product in the coun­
try has advanced in price from 25 to
400 per cent except railroad and util­
ity rates, and yet the very people who
furnish these great industries with
supplies at these advanced prices ex­
pect them to continue furnishing
their services as the same cost.
Politicians who use such policies to
gain popular favor are not standing
for the American spirit of fair play
which we are advocating to the world
today, and are injuring instead of
helping their own respective com­
munities. Seaside Signal.
Wood Mriggs.
----- o-----
There is only one word with which
to characterize Wood Briggs, the in­
imitable Kentuckian, and that is gen­
ius. He objects to being called a dra­
matic reader for he detests anything
“stagey." He does not permit the
term elocutionist, for he does not
elocute. Briggs just walks out on the
platform and with an announcement
that he is only ‘a garden variety of
story teller,” quickly looses himself
in several of the most brilliant char­
ter studies the platform has ever
witnessed. Taking for his feature
character studies, the negro of antee-
bcilum days, Briggs brings a sympa­
thetic understanding to his art that
makes his negro dialect stories, clas­
sics. Briggs knows and loves the type
—a few of whom still totter and
mumble about their old hunts of
slavery days. I o hear the immortal
classic “Vuele Dan’l.” as interpreted
by Briggs, is a memorable event .He
speakes from his heart when he tells
the story of Uncle Dan’l, the old
darky who pleads in court for his
wife, who has been arrested for beat­
ing up Uncle Dan’l himself. Briggs
visualizes this character to astonish­
ing reality—the serio-comic curcum-
stances of the stiuation, the pathetic
tenderness of the old fellow, his loy­
alty for his contentious spouce*-and
above all a philosophy from which
anyone may draw a lesson in practical
Christianity.
.
Wood Briggs completely satisfies
the Chautauqua demand for clean,
wholesome entertainment Then de­
spite Mr. Briggs’ contention that lie
is only a story teller, it is equally true
that lie is as much a lectures,as an en­
tertainer. His mastry of negro dialect
and drollery is unsurpassed and has
not been equaled since the days of
"glorious" Bob Taylor.
When the anti-governmental agita­
tion of Emma Goldman and Alexan­
der Beckman, the anarchists, took the
form of obstruction to effect prose­
cution of war against Germany, the
extreme limit of American patience
was passed, and the Government
properly treated the entire anarchist
organization as a treasonable con-
spiracy.
Arrest of the two leaders was
quickly followed by a raid on their
headquarters in New York, where a
card index to the subscribers of the
anarchists’ newspaper was seized, and
by another raid on the Russian group
of Anarchists in that city, where 30
men all of them allies and several of
whom could not speak a word of
English, were captured. Several of
them were in the act of printing a
