POSTPONED.

This paper has been requested to
announce that owing to the inability
of the Tacoma tennis players to be
present next week the LoOmis tennis
tournament has been postponed until
September IS. This change of date
will in no manner effect the success
of the meet. 1t is merely brief post
ponement of very interesting evenr
that many have been looking forward
to with anticipations of pleasure. The
change of date will give Oroville play
ers more tille to practice, something
they have so far neglected, and it IS
to be hoped that this place will be
represented in the contests by num-
ber Oh txTert wielders of the wicker.
Rear in mind that the date has been
changed to the 18th, and make
your arrangements to be there accord
ingly,

PROGRESSIVE FARTY's FUTURE.

Colonel Theodore Roosevelt makes
in connection with the Louisiana Re
VOLT as impressive a statement con-
cerning the future of the progressive
party MS any that has come recently
from his lips.
OF the influential men Who have
abandoned the democratic party in
Louisiana and come over into the
progressive party, he said in formal
statement at oyster Bay:
The progressive party is the ma
tufal meeting place for the men ef
this character from the south and for
the men who have taken similar ae-
ton against the machine bosses of the
north. As time goes on it will become
more and more the inevitable rallying
point for good citizens, north and
south. who stand for national honor,
for clean politics. for successful bust
ness and agriculture and for Justice

| men and little men alike"
This is an outline of future growth
and strength which progressives all

THE GERMAN VIEWPOINT.

Nebraska State JournaD.
German Americans are convinced
that American sympathies are against
Germany in this fight. They feel
strongly that this is mistaken sym
pathy, and from many directions, from
the German embassy down, come pro-
tests and reasons A typical statement
is this by Prof. Hugo Munsterburg of
the faculty of Harvard university:
I'm this historic situation neither
Russia nor Germany could really act
otherwise. The great conflict of civil
izations was necessarily stronger than
the mere wishes of peaceful individu-
ais. But If it is such a gigantic con-
flict of Slavic and Germanic culture.
the sympathies Of the progressive
American nation ought not to be so
wilfully misled and ought not to be
whipped into the camp of the Cos
sacks. Americans ought not to re-
joice when the uncultured hordes of
the east march over the frontier and
aim toward the most eastern German
city, toward Konigsberg. the town of
Emmanuel Kant
The Germans do not agree that Ger
many forced this war. If Germany
took the aggressive it was because she
saw her enemy take aim at her heart
and sprang upon him to have her own
life. But all technical questions aside,
the German sees in this war the in
evitable conflict between Teutonic and
Slav civilization. 1t is a race conflict.
Germans are panied to see Teutonic
England fighting it's own race against
an alien and, as the Germans believe,
inferior race. They are equally dis
tressed to see America. which is Teu-
ton in tradition and population, giving
its sympathy to the Russ against the
German.
Those whose sympathies are against
Germany arrive at their views. Of
course. from an entirely different point
of view. Most of these, we suppose,
think Of Germany as aiming to domi-
nate Europe by military force. and be-
lieve that the war was deliberately
brought on by Germany to serve that
end. It is not likely that many
Americans have any sympathy for
Russia as against Germany.

the popular music attractive to one who
