PRIVACY THAT COUNTS.


In some respects the United States
suffers by comparison with the older
countries of the world But times like
the present make the points of excel
lence OF this nation shine resplendent.
They disclose the United states hold
ing the primacy in ways that are of
the greatest significance TO progress
and human welfare.
While Europe is at war this nation
is at peace because of the wise poll
cies that have guided II from its
foundation and because of the self
restraint and judicial fairness of the
authorities at washington OF greaI
significance also is the opening of the
Panama canal, work reflecting
credit upon the American nation in
various ways. Everywhere this
achievement is the subject of un-
stinted praise.
a sample of the favorable comment
called forth by the completion of the
canal is the following from the To
ronto Globe: I'm the midst of wal

THE cossACKs OF THE DON.

The bugle rings, his steed he strides
The battle calls him on.
And forth to meet its shock he rides,
The Coccack OF the Don.
The fierce red Tartar blood that
flows
Down from unconquered sires
Wakes. with the Joy his wild heart
knows,
When blaze wars flaming fires.
God help the foe that meets them
when
The Cossacks ride to war;
The strong, swift, bearded fighting
men
Whose friends the gray wolves are:
Who make their coyerlets the SHOWS
When they lie down to sleep.
Who faster ride than wind that
blows
When they their saddles leap.
No man has seen the Cossack sword
Turn downward in the fight:
In vain have tides Of battle poured
Against them in their might;
The hoof-beats OF their steeds are
known.
With all their wandering clan.
From bleak Siberian highways down
To sun kissed Astrakhan.
When sits the White Car on his
throne
Within his guarded gate.
Brooding, with brow OF gloom, alone
Upon his empires fate,
He knows through every vague alarm
While ships and men fight on.
He still may trust his strong righ'
arm
The Cossacks Of the Don.

WATCHFCL WATERS AND WAR
CFrom the Philadelphia Ledger

(From the Philadelphia Ledger)
II italy and Greece were to par
ticipate in the war in Europe. and IL
all the young men who belong to the
reserves in European countries, or
who have not done their military SER
vice, were to returnto Europe. New
York would be able to eat only in the
automatic restaurants. for practically
all the male walters in the city are
foreigners within the military age
This is the consideration which brings
joy to the heart when one reads that
Italy is to remain neutral: for the
Italian restaurants are unaffected by
the trouble.
And not all the Italian walters are
in the Italian restaurants either. A
casual census of the walters in one of
the well-known French restaurants
the other night revealed the fact that
about as many of these French wait
ers' We're Italians as Frenchmen.
Most of the French who owe military
service will certainly go home and do
it. If they can get there. But young
foreigners who have had soldering
enough are very generally availing
themselves of the opportunity to get
out Of it, without being classed as de-
serters, by becoming American citi-
zens.
They are wise to do so. Their
chance Of ever being required to per-
form military service in the United
States against their win is about the
same as their chance of being struck
by lightning under a clear sky.

TREATIES IN WAR TIME.

(From the Philadelphia Ledger.)
There is a lesson for US in the patti
ent disregard of treaties under the
stress Of war. OF course. there are
certain international agreements and
understandings which are respected
by belligerents, but they are always
Of sort which do not stand in the
way Of the vital interests that are be-
ing submitted TO the arbitrament OF
the sword. A treaty that may serve
a useful and restraining purpose un-
der moderate strain, would be under
the pressure OF vital necessity be worth
nothing at all. Whether the recent
arbitration treaties belong in this class
has not yet been put to the test OF
actual trial in issues grave enough SER
iously to threaten war, but their val
ue as safeguards against war depends
on many other factors than their
terms or phraseology. The efficacy
Of the decree Of The Hague Tribunal
likewise are about to be put to a crit.
ical test. In the mad rush Of war
preparations their existence is appar.
entity entirely forgotten.

His Loyalty TO of action and it is
Eastern Oregon. a peculiar effort
That paper is at
tempting TO make capital against the
doctor by publishing list OF appro-
priations for which he voted when
in the state senate.
Among those listed as having re-
ceived the support of DR. Smith are:
An appropriation for the state port
age railroad at Cello.
An appropriation to purchase the
right of way for the Cello canal. so
the L. S. government would take up
the construction Of the canal
Appropriations for the Eastern
Oregon Normal School.
Appropriations for the Oregon Agri-
cultural College and State University.
The above measures were all of in
terest and importance to this section
and TO the whole state. The portage
road at Cello brought about reduc-
tions in freight rates of benefit TO
every resident Of the state. 1t was
the forerunner Of the Cello eanal
work which when completed will
work an immense benefit each year
TO the farmers and the consumers Of
the inland empire. The Cello canal
work would never have been under
taken had NOT the state first built a
portage road and bought the canal
right Of way.
Yet here is Oregon's chief tory
newspaper trying to make votes
against Dr. Smith because he was 10y
al enough to eastern Oregon and suf-
ficiently free from railroad influences
that ne voted for the portage road
and the canal right of way bill
What do the farmers and other res
idents Of eastern Oregon who have
benefited by that work think Of the
oregonian's line Of action? Do they
propose TO punish DR.. Smith this fall
because while in the state senate he
voted and worked in their behalf?
DO they intend 20 repudiate their own
friend and support the oregonian
which has never in It's history said an
homes; or an effective word in behalf
of lower freight rates but on the
other hand has always been an ally Of
Che railroads and reactionary force
with regards 10 river navigation and
with regards to the general subject Of
cheaper transportation for the pro-
ducers Of this section?

HORRORS, MABEL. THIS

"Over at Paris recently the Chief
of Police ordered woman in a stay
in the shade DRESS to put on more
clothes. She was traversing the plat,
form of the station, stranger. She
replied that she didn't have any more
with her, whereupon the Chief went
home and got one of his wife's petit
skirts and taking it to the offender,
demanded that she put it on. He
was obeyed. and the woman went on
her way. The City Council allowed
him $3.50 payment for the skirt. He
is to be congratulated upon his cru
sade for modesty, and when a woman
forgets this virtue and trails
the standard Of womanhood in the
mire, it makes no difference who she
is nor where she came from, she
should be promptly arrested and ideal
womanhood of the land will give their
heartiest approval of any thing that
will curb tendency to the spinal cord,
waist-line expose gowns, the ridicu-
lousy narrow skirts and transparent
frocks. The indecency in dress can
not be too greatly criticised and if it
cannot be remedied by gentleness, ar
rest the transgressor of the most sa-
