THE NEGATIVE MAN.
One of the most pitiful sights in the world is the man
who never hzs any cpimon of his own, the backboneiess
man, the man who never differs from you, whose only
opinion is assent to the one you express.
We instinctively despise the man who never opposes
us, who always says "Yes, yes," to everything we say.
The negative character is always a weakling; the world
looks upon him as an imitation of a man, not the real ar
ticle. What the world wants is the positive man, the man
who does his own thinking, the man who dares to step out
from the crowd and live his own creed, who dares to have
p.r.d to express his own opinions: this is the man who gains
the respect of the community.
The negative man may be a very good, inoffensive soi t
cf person; he may never do any harm in the neighbor
load; but, on the other hand he never does much good.
He is never sought out in an emergency, because no ore
l-clitves he can accomplish anything; he is virtually a nobody.
A person who is naturallv weak or timid s!icuM bend
pll his energies to acquiring self-confidence, firmness, de
.ets. is hard for the layman to understand. Is it any more '
pleasant to be killed by a fragment of shell than with a!
bullet that wiU not mangle the corpse half so mucn? Has ,
our civilized warfare reached such a state of niceties that j
we stipulate the size of the -hole in the soldiers body ;
through which his soul may pass out and up to judgment? j

According to the dispatches today, Austria feels sore '
at Germany because she went after the French instead;
of rushing to aid her against the Russians. The same!
dispatches intimate that Austria has about all she cares
to assimilate just now, and would give a g'.ad welcome to
any kind of peace. !

Among other things that wlil ur. ioubtedly reach the
Idgh limit as to cost are the manufactures of flax. Bel
gium leads both in the production of flax and in manufac
tures from it. My lady's linen wiil be cotton, or mcst of
it will, when the present supply is used up, for the Delgian
factories are closed and her fields of flax with their splen
did fibe r are no more. It will be a year and probably sev-1
cral of them before the linen market is again supplied.!
and high prices will prevail indefinitely. While the coun- j
try is facing the problem of supplying its own needs inj
many lines, and awaking not only to the necessity of so
doing but also to the immense lenefits that would follow
j'ennanertly therefrom, here in Oregon, which is the na
tural, home of the Rax, patriotism as well as self interest
requires that we do our part by producing what we can
1 0 supply the demands of our own country. We can grow
the very finest flax, and we should take" hold of that in
dustry with a will. The opportunity will never be better,
for high prices will last long enough to get tne industry
on its feet and make Oregon the greatest flax country in
Ine'World. With more than 100,000 horsepower going to
waste in the Santiam and climatic conditions perfect for
waking flax products, it is little less than criminal to neg
l:ct the opportunity that presents itself to make Salem
the linen center of the United States, the Belfast of the
new world.

In today's Capital Journal is an article on road build
ing, reprinted from Ladd & Bush's Quarterly for July.
) t is a practical discussion of the question from a conserva
tive standpoint, and much information concerning the
condition of highways is given by Mr. Bush as the result
of ittrsonal observation. The question of building good
and permanent roads is a big one, as important in its
Irfaring upon the progress and prosperity of the state as
any before the people at the present time, and such ar
ticles as this will serve to arouse interest and provoke
discussion which can only result in the public good.
Some Europeans were poking fun at-President Wil
son's Mexican policy but a short time ago and had much
to say about grape juice diplomacy and watchful waiting,
the while indulging in quiet sneers and ill concealed laugh
ter. They are not sneering now. neither are thev laueh-
ing at American policies, Wilson's or others some of
them are even begging the president to intercede in be
half of European peace as the only head of a natton In
position to do it.
