OPPORTUNITY FOR

United States has been both an i'm

is that the imports Of manufactured

OTTOMAN LAW WILL
PROTECT AMERICANS AND
MISSION IN TURKEY

Washington, Sept. 1.-THE Tur.
kish ambassador, A. Rustern Bey ex'
planned in detail to Secretary Bryan
today the meaning Of Turkeys abro-
cation of all conventions and capt.
ulations restricting the sovereignty
of the porte.
The ambassador made 1t clear that
American missions and schools would
continue to be protected by Ottoman
law although American citizens
would lose their extra territorial
rights in civil and judicial cases. The
capitulation which had been abrogat-
ed. he said, would not affect the ex-
istence of the missions which had
been recognized previously by Turk
ish law. The ambassador said he
would issue a statement later inter.
preting Turkeys action.
AS Turkeys notification was Of a
general character without specifying
particular treaties, officials had not
been sure of the extent of the action.

PRAYER FOR PEACE

Even the man who looks at life
with an Interrogation point may
well attend church on October the
day that President Wilson has set
apart for prayer for peace. There
are more things in heaven and earth
than are dreamt of in the philosophy
of some of us.
The nationalist finds the older con
ceptions of prayer difficult to har-
monte. Yet any thoughtful study
of the literature of the subject will
reveal host of striking and well
attested occurrences, indicating the
efficacy of influences not accounted
for on any material basis.
If the nations of Europe could but
look at their quarrels, either from
the Christian, or the business point
OF view, they would settle them and
call off their armed men in a day
Seen either in the light of the teach
ings OF Jesus, or from the most sor,

A LITTLE PROBATION

The season is approaching when
the weather is not to be depended

every precaution be made to harvest
the late fall crops, which the good
Lord has so abundantly blessed this
valley with, before the extreme wea.
Their is upon us. The beets, potatoes
and late fall fruits are what we are
most concerned with at this time of
year.
While the crops should be given
4, -ry attention to get them uIder
shelter, there are other matters that
need a little care and attention
about the home and the farm, which
should not be overlooked. The mach
inery that has been used in the hay
and harvest fields should be careful
ly shielded from the wintry blasts.
The rust from standing out in the
weather is just as damaging and
perhaps more so than the summers

FRENCH LOSING

Temps from San Sebastian says:
"The paucity Of war news from
French sources is causing the Span

little by little, is losing what small
influence she possessed. The foreign
ministry gives out to the newspaper
men accounts of German successes
in France, although the minister Is

man origin. but the fact that they are
communicated to the foreign office
stamps them with certain authen-
ticity."

MODERN COURAGE

The fighting in Europe throws
light on the much debated question,
whether the alienation of pain and
more comfortable living of this GEN.
fury have made people soft, rs so
many people believe.
1t is certain that the smaller pains
of life are not borne as easily as
formerly. Most people once thought
but little OF having h tooth out, and
without any anesthetic. The writer
knows one of the old timers, who,
having a sore toe that had bothered
him a good deal, went out in the barn
one day, and deliberately chopped it
off with Ratchet.
Nowadays most people rarely have
teeth out without taking gas or eth
er. They even dread the slighter
pains of the ordinary experience Of
having teeth filed.
The superb courage shown on the
European fields of battle, however,
seem equal to anything recorded
from the old stories of heroism. The
soldiers march on to what Is prac.
tically organized suicide. One line
follows another to death, and final.
ly the following ranks win the posi-
ton, before the defenders have time
to operate their weapons.
Probably the capacity for enduring
the minor ills of life has diminished
as the hardships of the world have
been alleviated. There is a growing
sensitiveness to pain and alarm at
danger. But as the soldier grows
more subject to these influences OF
refined age, his fear Of ridicule and
shame becomes keener. He may
fear death more. But his dread OF
disgrace is also stronger. He can
see little satisfaction in saving him
self, If he must bear the pale badge
of cowardice thereafter.
This is the one bright spot out OF
the orgy of blood across the water.
It Is the convincing proof that hu
man nature is just as capable oil
meeting the darker and deeper Is
sues of life as 1t ever was.

NEWSPAPER RESPONSIBILITY

Josephus Daniels, Secretary OF the
Navy, In an address delivered Labor
Day to a press association, urged all
editors to subordinate their news to
the service Of the country. He par
ticularly felt, that in this time when
international issues are involved,
newspapers should be careful what
they print.
This is good advice. But few peo-
pie realize how largely editors al
ways do follow these counsels.
Where there are controversies as
to the publication or nonpublication
of news, they almost always arise
over some personal wrongdoing. A
man gets too much bad whiskey in
him, then breaks loose and assaults
some one. Next morning, after pay
ing his fine, he calls around at the
newspaper office. He shows an APP
probation of the editors friendship
that was never manifested before.
incidentally, he asks the paper to
keep the story quiet.
1T won't do any good to print
it. No one is interested in it," is
his familiar sounding plea.
No good purpose is served by the
suppression of such incidents. The
only result is that the offending citi-
zen is spared part Of the condem-
nation this is his just punishment.
AS a result, he is much more likely
to make an ass of himself again.
1t is a very different story when
the newspaper man comes in contact
with the police or other responsible
public officials. II the newspapers
printed all they know, criminals
would escape. and many corrupt Of
ficials would buy tickets for Canada.
The great majority of the newspa-
pers are handling tactfully and patri-
otically the news about the war.
They freely print both sides. They
have a right to express an opinion
as to the causes of the war.
Just one suggestion could be made
to certain journals, newspapers Of
the saffron stripe. Mere rumor
ought not to be dignified with just
the same emphatic and positive head
lines that would be given to an au-
thenticated report.

Are You a Mason?

Leo Deitrickstein's funny farce Are Yau a Mason?" proved a sparkling Ve- hicle for the Ed Redmond company offered last night at the Columbia as their second half of the weeks bill. It received an elaborate setting and shows that the company is equally at home in the lighter comedy vein, as well as the more serious play of the first half Ev

 her for a song often. The indictment weather did not deter a good house from turning out to see the comedy and they were amply repaid for their trou- ble Mir Carns departed from the lead- ing man last night to don skirts in a male masquerade and MT Redmond had a good part in the gay old song who supplies most of the comedy of the bill.
