TREATIES

PRESIDENT Wilson has signitied his
oeslre that the peace trea les be rati-
ned at this session, and the senate
foreign relations committee has been
nollhed through Secretary Bryan,
says the Salt Lake Tribune. Tue
world ls ripe for the signing of such
treaties, and If everlasting peace can
he brought about through the in.
strumentality OF the United States,
The glory OF The country will not be
eHaced SO long as the world shall last
and men and women call themselves
Christians.
Ii may be that the treaties will be
ooJectionalbe in some particulars.
and that before the great nations
nnally agree upon them the wording
may be changed, bat the statesman
or mn occupying an office usually
/ hIled by "a sta esman who stands in
the way or attempts To block The
progress OF movement oil this kind,
Is an enemy of society and wors tnan
hcathen. His relegation To private
life should be sudden and swift.
There never was any excuse for
war, for both nations party 10 1t, for
the simple reason that one side or the
other, the one blamahle. could have
dverted 1T. Men have been compelled
TO night for freedom since the world
hogan, or at least as far back as the
records go, bot the oppresscrs com
PEELED the appeal to arms aud their
action has always been held TO he in
tXcusable. This being SO, there is
no valid reas"n why The nations
should not sit III judgment when the
peace OF the World is threatened 10y
hOstilitieS bet cen two OF their num-
Der and useless slaughter prevented.
The woIkiugmen OF Europe are
groaning under the heavy burden Of
taxation placed upon them on ac.
count OF past wars and others to
come, unless some such arrangements
as that proposed by the United States
is perfected, The old saying that the
lahoring man of Europe goes TO work
wiCh a soldier u pon his back, is an.
solutely true, and the wonder is they
have been so patient under the yoke.
Why should they be compelled to
work like galley slaves all their lives
in times Of peace or he forced onto
the battlefield ano killed or manned
in war that could have been pre-
vented?
1t may be that the present effort
for worldwide peace will fail; that
those who abhor war must wait 1T
tie logger. The time is close al
hand, however, when the great work
VIII he accomplished and the world
freed from an appalling amount Of
misery and suffering. Politicians
may delay the dawn OF the glad era,
but they cannot prevent IL. No one
can blau e the present administration
for seeking early action, for the ques-
Ion Is not political, but one IN which
all parties and all nations have a
deep and abiding interest II the
treaties are not correctly Aorded or II
the interests OF the country are not
sufficiently safeguarded let them bs
amended. Then take the brst step
in the settlement of the most iup por-
tant question ever placed before the
nations 10 the history II the world.

Today's Game With

BY J. ED GR1LLo.

| PHILADELPHIA, August 14.-Three
members of the Nationals infield are now
under three-year contracts. The signing
| of Ray Morgan for that period yesterday
morning leaves Mcbride the only one of
the infielders out of the fold, and, Of
course, no one is worrying about Nc
Bride, who will get into line whenever he
| is asked to. Gandil signed his three-year
agreement last fall, Foster during the
teams stay in Detroit recently, and Nor
! gan here yesterday. The Federal League
officials have been quoted as boasting that
they would break up Griffith's infield, but
they have been thwarted by Griffith, who,
within week, will have every one Of his
infielders in line, Mcbride being slated to
have proposition made him within a
day or SO.
Griffith. in fact, does not propose to lose
| a man to the Federals He will sign them
all before the present season is over. One
of these days he will be closeted with
Walter johnson and get him to come to
terms, though this may not be an easy
| task. The Federal League has made 1t
| plain that it proposes to make johnson
an offer. which, if it does not induce him
! to join the Federals, will force the Wash
| ington club to pay him big increase.
] 1t is understood that Griffith offered John
| son a five-year contract recently calling
/, for $4,000 per season. and it is more than
| likely that johnson will accept these terms.
| For the past three years every time the
Nationals and the Athletics have hooked
up the game has been spirited. because
! the Griffmen have put up game fight
| though they were seldom rewarded with
victory. Yesterday was the first time in
years that the Nationals seemed to accept
defeat even before the game started

THE JIGGER.-This club. made
with loft half way between the
mashie and midiron. properly mas
tered. brings into the bag shot
which is highly essential to build
ing up a really sound game.
The jigger is the ideal club for
shots ranging from 125 to 100 yards.
OF course 1t can be used for longer
shots. but l would rather use the
midiron for those from. say 40
to ITO. and then go to cleek or
brassie.
The beauty of using the jigger
for these definite short shots is
that you become accustomed to
use the same strength with each
of the irons. relying on the vari-
GUS degrees of loft to secure the
different distances
When you have reached a stage
of consistency which enables you
to know approximately the exact
distance you can get with each Of
the irons you are well on the road
to the highest achievements in the
game.

BY J. ED GR1LLo.

PHILADELPHIA, August 13.-The
champions did not have to extend them
selves to win the opening game of the
series from the Nationals yesterday,
which they accomplished by a score OF
n to 0. There was never any doubt about
the outcome Of the contest after the first
inning had been played. in which the
champs made two runs. for that was
more than sufficient to give them the ver-
dict. For the first time since the Ma
tionals and Athletics have been rivals
the Grinmen were meek yesterday. There
was absolutely no fight in the visitors,
en- before the game started and just went
through the motions Of playing ball
game. They never had a chance to score.
But three hits were credited to them at
Shawkey's expense; two of these were OF
the scratch variety. Doc Ayers, on the
retired under fire after the fifth inning.
Harper who took his place, got bad
start in the sixth, when he; forced in a
couple of runs, but he showed good form
thereafter. striking out three OF the To-
calls and not allowing any more runs or
hits.
Ayers in Trouble.
Ayers got into trouble right from the
start After Murphy had flied out Old
ring, Collins and Baker singled in rapid
succession. McInnis popped up a little
fly over third. which neither Mcbride nor
Mitchell could reach. and Collins scored.
but Baker was thrown out at second by
Mitchell.
The locals rested on their oars until the
fifth. when they jumped on Ayers for
three more runs. Doc walked Murphy to
start with, Oldring singled and Collins
sacrificed Baker was purposely walked
to get McInnis up and the latter promptly
hit to center. Strunk followed suit and
three runs were over the plate in less
time than it takes to tell it.
With Harper pitching in the sixth. the
champions sent two more home. Barry's s
hit started the round Lapp sacrificed
and Shawkey was walked, while Murphy
scratched in hit, filling the bases. Old
ring flied out, but Harper walked Collins
and Baker. forcing in two runs The
score tells the rest of it:

Mike Moran and Jack Spalding led the

March, who is pitching for Tenieytown,
is a Western High School youngster. He
should be one of the stars of the scholas-
tic series next spring. provided he can
keep eligible. which he failed to oG
last season. March has lot OF natural
ability. but he must conquer certain ten
dencies before he will ever become the
pitcher he really ought to be. March has
enough natural ability to be the best
hurler in high school ranks in another
year, though it must be admitted that
he has a whole lot to learn.

Buck Becker had an easy time win
ming his game. He did not work as
hard as he might had greater OPP
position been afforded, and he expert
enced little trouble in keeping his op-
ponents from hitting the ball effec-
lively. Buck caused twelve of the
Marquette leaguers to fan the air in
their vain endeavors to connect with
his elusive delivery, and only three
times were opposing batters able to
hit safely. Three hits allowed, two
bases on balls and twelve strike-outs
do not constitute bad record when
one is really not trying to do his best,
not by any means.

MANY WILL CELEBRATE
ON FOUNDERS DAY.

Under the auspices Of the Oregon
Pioneer Association the list ami
versary of ''Founders s Day" will be
celebrated at Champoeg Saturday, May
2. 1t is expected that a large mum
Der of Salem people will motor down
TO the historic spot on the banks of
the Willamette if the weather is fair.
Otherwise conveyance will be by means
OF trains. This event is the fourteenth
celebration of the anniversary, and
visitors from all parts of the willamette
valley are expected to be present. In
addition to the regular celebration,
special memorial services for Hon.
Francis Xavier Matthieu, who died at
his pioneer homestead at Butteville last
February, will be held.
Judge Peter II. darcy of this city
will be president of the day. The
memorial address will be given by
Hon. Charles b. Moores, of Portland.
Short addresses will be made by pioneer
men and women, vocal music by the
veterans quartet, which consists of
W. NJ. Morse, Dr. j. E. Hall, A. w.
Mills, and Prof. z. M. Parvin; and a
basket picnic and social reunion.
"Father" Matthieu, in whose mem
ory the special services will be held,
was the last survivor of that historic
convention held at Champoeg in 1S43
when it was determined to establish a
provisional government in Oregon.
After arguing the matter pro and con
that eventful day, Joe Meek, American
trapper and trail-blazer, cried out
"Who's for a dividel All in favor of
the American flag, follow mel"
When the crowd began to divide it
was seen that the count would be
close. Then, at last, when it stood 81
for English sovereignty and 81 for
American, Matthieu stepped from the
ranks Of the Canadians and went to
the American side. The result stood
SO for American sovereignty and 80 for
English. Then the Englishmen present
leaped on their horses and rode back
to Fort Vancouver, now in the state
of Washington, and Oregon, Washing
ton, Idaho, and part of Montana were
saHed to the Union.

THREE lose LIVES IN
LODGING HOUSE FIRE

Portland, Or, April 20.-Four bod.
les, so badly burned that Identification
has not yet been made, were taken
this morning from the ruins of sew.
eral frame buildings destroyed in the
block bounded by East Ninth, East
Tenth, Washington and Stark streets
shortly before midnight. The debris
is being explored for further victims.
The fire was discovered In ware
house owned by j. J. Kndderly, and
spread with great rapidity TO the other
buildings in the block which include
several dwellings. The buildings burn.
ed are supported by piling and the
Flames were swept under them by heavy
nnderdraught.
1t was estimated that 2j persons
were sleeping in the row of burned
dwellings, but all were believed to
have escaped until the first body found
after the fire had been extinguished,
The fire was replete with narrow
escapes, a number of persons cropping
their way through the smoke.filled
houses to the streets, or leaping from
the second story windows.
The loss is estimated at $4,000.
The dead are believed to be Joe
O'Neil, laborer; Alex Stewart, a
laborer, and Dick Hall, a cook. John
Anderson, gardener, is missing.
Three bodies were recovered this
morning but the remains were so char
red and disfigured that Identification
was impossible.
The men who lost their lives resided
on the second floor Of a frame tene.
ment at 4S7la East Washington street.
w. Davidson, who also had rooms on
this floor, is the only one known to
have escaped with his life.
The lower floor was occupied by Joe
McEntry, a horse trader, who succeed
ed in getting into the street with his
bedding.
The fire was one Of the hottest and
swiftest that Portland has ever had.
Various reasons are given as its cause,
but all that Is definitely known is that
it started in the read of the basement
at the house numbered 4S3 East Wash
ington street.
The loss is estimated at $4,000
About 25 persons lived in the de-
