BRAINLESS AND TREASONABLE The eastern suffragettes have added another to their long list of blunders in the pursuit of the ballot. This time- not satisfied with picketing the white house, they took advantage of the visit of the Russian war commis sion to the president, to display a banner with the in scription: "President Wilson and Envoy Root are de ceiving Russia. It was no wonder that the people who saw it, regard less of sex, charged on the offenders, tore their banner from them and trampled it in the dirt. It was no small offense to parade in front of the white house, and especi ally at the time, an open declaration that the president of the United States was deliberately lying to the Russian people. It was a statement made to .representative Rus sians that the American people acting through their president were lying to, and deceiving .Russia. If it was not treasonable it came so near, it that it would take a corporation attorney to find out wherein it was not. This deliberate insult was given because the president has not seen fit to accede to the demands of this little gang of misguided females, who are far from being a credit to their sex and who are certainly a discredit to the sensible women who are struggling loyally and stead fastly for national suffrage, and who would get what they are fighting for were it not.for the puerile antics of this brainless bunch. If those self appointed leaders of the east had kept their hands off the last election national Riiffraee-would have been nearer some years than it is, The creation of a women's party drove the populous states of the east against the movement,, because if a women's party could be organized that would stick to tTAther as it was proposed they should do, then it would necessarily follow that the women's party holding the balance of power and having no especial object could throw their votes either way, and thus become the actual rulers of the country. It is this danger- or possible danger that has r isen up to block the movement Now that the war demands much of women it is sug-, gested that this bunch of noisy and spectacular agitators could find work suited to their mental caliber in hiring out for the job of extracting the lacteal fluid from the reticules of the dairy cows of New Jersey, or washing dishes in some restaurant. JHoover points out that it is necessary to cut down the exports of foodstuffs to 'neutral countries. Of -, course this works a hardship on them, but if this country is to deny itself and go on short rations it is eminently proper to make the neutral nations do the same tning. uesiaes it is more than suspected that many of these countries have been drawing on this country for more stuff in the way of eatables than they needed, and turning a few hon est pennies for themselves by doing a little back door trading with Germany. Hoover proposes to cut them to really less than they need' so they will have to go hungry if they share their supplies with othei-s. As an illustration of the intermediate costs the con sumer must pay it is noted that fish selling at six cents a pound at Newport cost the consumer eighteen cents a pound. Of course there is considerable expense in handling this kind of foodstuff but it would seem to one not familiar with the business, that 100 per cent should be enough to leave a fair profit to the man who finally hands the retail package over to the consumer. Of course the Southern Pacific gets a whack at it but that should not account for more than 50 per cent. The sudden death of Judge Bradshaw, of The Dalles, yesterday, removed from the bench of Oregon one of the ablest and cleanest members. He left behind him a record of twenty-six years , of honest, faithful, judicial Service. Up to noon yesterday two of the seven stripes repre senting $5,000 each had been marked on the big flag which represents the subscription in Salem to the Red Cross. Besides there was the sum of $412.56 as a starter for the third stripe, which will no doubt be completed to day. At the same time reports from all sections of the country show the people are responding generously and in many cases far exceeding the amounts allotted to their districts, lhe Dalies, m this state, had given $40,000 yesterday at noon, and the report said was "still going strong;" and she was expected to raise but $5,000. The little town of Moro in Sherman countv did a thirtv- thirty stunt quickly, when thirtv-two men cave thirtv- three hundred dollars in thirty minutes. Yesterday after -.Jl j.l i v -r ttr - i ... . . noon a aispatcn irom n. vv. atone, of Seattle, said the northwest would exceed its allotment perhaps by half a million, and the returns' bear out the-statement and then some. Among the surprises was the anouncement that one oi. the country's-richest men had eiven $10000.000, His name was withheld at his request, but rumor points to Rockefeller, probably because he could give this and feel it least. However it sounds more like Henry Ford. When the returns are in tonight .which marks the half way post, it seems pretty certain the sum subscribed will be lar in excess of half. Monmouth State Normal Requires More Money; Rate of Tuition Raised There is one senator at least who has real sound sense, and that is Senator Kenyon, who sapiently re marked: "When wheat is higher in the United States than in London, there is something wrong." There cer tainly is, and yet that is just the case. . At the same time the senate wastes time and wearies the country listening 10 useii taiK. - esf lYippi ing by Walt Mason Rhym 4S It developed at the annual nieetins f the board of regent of the Mon mouth Normal .svhool, . held at Mon mouth yesterday, that it is impossible to administer efficiently the affairs of the school on the 1.25' of a mill tax allowed by Jaw. This situation came up in he rejiort of President Ackerman, and upon his recommendation it was decided to increase the tuition at the school from $4 a semester to 0, ex cept! ng fur the summer session when uo change will prevail. This-will partially relieve the short age in funds, which has become more acute, especially since the extension work of tho school has been broadened out to take in the Independence schools and the rural centers. Taking over of the rural centers also has compelled the removal of JI. B. I'ittiuan from the extension work for three fourths of the year, but efforts will be made in the future, it was stati ed, to provide tor the Oregon normal being represented m extension work tor the full time. Thei board adopted recommendations of President Ackerman that the JJ1 kins, Dak Point and Mountain View schools bo operated as rural centers as a part of the Oregon .Normal school, and also the contract between the In dependence school board and the nor mal lor the administration of elemen tary schuuls of Independence as part of the normal training school was in- lorsed. K. M. Kvenden, head of the depart meiit of education, was granted a yearn leave of absence to take up work at Columbia university,, leading to T doc tor's dearee. To fill the vacancy dur ing iXv.
