A cable from Amsterdam on
Wednesday last gave a report
from a newspaper correspondent
from Berlin, that the Krupps are
running night and day in manu-
featuring some enormous can
mons destined as was believed
for some port in England which
the Germans hoped TO capture.
and the further statement that
these guns will have range of
about twenty-five miles. Fur
ther that the Zeppelin factories
are being rushed to add to the
airship fleet. This is a reminder
that a German officer who was
recently here in disguise, hurry
ing back to Germany, told a
countryman that the new great
guns were intended for the fleet
and not the shore. that when the
fleet was fitted out with them
that fleet would be heard from;
that the guns have a range
three miles beyond any gun on
any British ship; that they fire
a shot so terrible that they will
crush any ironclad like an egg
shell; that with ships thus
equipped. with the submarines
beneath the sea and the Yep
pelins in the air. the purpose
was to invade England.
Should all this prove true, it
would but confirm Admiral Far
ragut's opinion that eventually
ironclads would prove to be
merely coffins, for a gun would

A. w. Lafferty candidate to
succeed himself for Congress is
making a vigorous campaign
and his chances for reelection
are splendid. He has made an
enviable reputation as Congress-
man and has gotten as much for
Oregon as any other member
could possibly hope to secure.
He has "gotten onto the ropes"
in good style and is in the best
possible condition to render
even greater and more efficient
service in the future. Better to
reelect q man who has made
good than try new man whose
ability as statesman may be
uncertain.
