THE POWER OF STATUTES.

Some very learned men argue that business conducted
on enormous scale cannot he made subject to law.
Statutes" says the President OF Columbia college,
twill not put moral principles where they do not exist
Maybe not,
But there are some things that right statutes rgdly
applied can do.
They can put of the business voators of moral
principles in jail
Maybe statutes can't put moral principles in man,
but they can put the without moral principles out of
Jsiness
1t is quite probable that moral principles cannot be
put in the big trust grafters by statute or any other
means.
But the statutes properly enforced the big trust
grafers may grating and do some plain living and
hard thinking in place provided by statute for that pur-
pose.
This would be good for the general business if not
good for the big grafters.
It might not put moral principles in men, but it
would put moral principle in future methods of doing big
business
Statutes in themselves can accomplish nothing. But
rigdly enforced they make the manipulation of
millions humble and tractable.
Besides it well to remember that statutes direct and
develop public opinion.

WATER FRONT MEAS.
URES DANGEROUS

To the Editor:
With the absolute certainty that the
g Water Front y constitutional amend.
ment No, 1928 and its companion bill,
NO. $50 on the ballot, proposed for
adoption at the next state election, will
deprive the state of authority to sell
any tide lands or any submerged lands
on the navigable streams and bays of
Oregon, the state is confronted with
the prospect that all industrial devel.
opmcrt requiring access to the water
will speedily come TO AN end, This Is
the opinon Of practically every attor.
ney who has made careful examina.
tion of the proposed amendment and
bill.
Well known lawyers in Portland and
other cities in the state have pointed
out that the proposed amendment con
tainS II provision that tide lands may
be leased by the state only as sites on
which to build docks. This means that
the state land board will not be per.
mitted to grant any permit to dixie or
reclaim any overflow lands or tide
lands, or any right to utilize tide lands
for booming purposes, fishery purposes
or as sites for industries or for any
other industrial development purpose.
In an address recently delivered in
Portland by ex-senator Il, W, Mulkey,
who with G. s. jackson Of the Journal
proposed the amendment and the bill,
Mr. Mulkey used this expressions "Uu.
sold tide lands and foreshore of navig'
able streams will remain the property
Of the state. They will be analogous
TO timber lands In the national forest
reserves They will be heritage for
future generations. "
Those who have made study Of the
amendment and the bill give Mr.. Mul
key credit since he is one Of the au.
thOrs Of the measure, with knowing
what they mean and when he says that
the unsold tide lands and ioreshore can
only be leased for dock purposes, II be.
comes perfectly clear that the vast
logging interests, fishing interests and
other industries that require access to
the water Ia their operations are to
be practically put out Of the game no
far ns future development is concerned
" Nn'Nt UlVUNuIth ucfonV lHWh'
Another serious objection to both OF
these measures, which Is urged by a
great many people in MI sections Of
the state, is the fact that the school
fund which now derives considerable
revenue from the sale of tide lands
aud the foreshore of the nayjgnblc
waters Of The state will be deprived of
u very large sum Of money that Is now
badly needed for the maintenance OF
the public school system of Oregon,

NO PREPARATION NEEDED.

Representative Gardner of Massachusetts, got end.
wise in congress Thursday and threw several individual
and congressional fits because this country is not pre-
pared for war; and wants committee Of three senator's
three congressman and three others to find out how
much, where and why it is unprpared
The scrappy congressman fails to realize what must
be apparent to anyone who gives his thinker exercise
that the nations of Europe have removed any reason II
there was any, for state of preparedness for war When
they get through with each other it is fair to presume
each and every one of them will have all the war its sys
tenn requires for dozen years The need of men
TO rehabitate the destroyed industries, to spread the
wings Of commerce to the Winds to cultivate the farms
and rebuild the ruined cities wlprevent the recruiting Of
vast armies and BESIDES the toll of these same men will
he needed to the money to pay off the vast debt the
present war has sadded upon the labor of the world
Preparedness for war did not delay or prevent war
in Europe but rather FASTENED and caused it. Each OF
the nations with its big army, was like boy with new
gun-unhappy until it was tried on something.
If there ever was time when getting ready to scrap
our neighbor was excusabe the present is not it, Our
friends across the pond have made it absolutely umeces
eary for us to even think about needing an army AS to
the need of navy maybe If the time ever comes when one
is needed we can borrow Engands or Germanys il we
can provide a safe place to intern them.
Congressman Gardner needs to have the hindsights
of his imagination fixed and real new foresight attached
TO his muzzle that is to say his mouth.

The deadlnesS of the present war has not yet been
told for the dispatches have said word about the
hospitals other than their first aid to the wounded The
history of all shows the deaths from disease as far
more numerous than from those due to BATTLE and while
it is estimated the deaths in battle In the present war are
above quarter of million for all the armies, it prob
able this estimate is entirely too high Yet if the killed in
battle amounts to half that the death list when the vic
TINS of disease are counted will be far above that number
