T. R. AND WAR

~ OIL. ROOSEVELT ha;
. been vociferious in crit
ciSing the president fol
not taking a stand in behalf OF
Belgium when the country wa,
invaded by Germany. In view
of the colonel's position the
Boston Post makes the follow
ing gentle suggestion;
If the continued attacks
made by Colonel Roose-
welt upon the administra-
ton for neglecting to "act"
when Belgium was invad-
ed by Germany mean
anything at all, they
mean that he thinks this
country should have gone
to war with the allies. In
fact, the colonel has said
so, without actually using
the word war
Now if he feels that his
view is the view of the ma
ton, it would be very easy
for him to try it out. Ii
he were to run for presi-
dent upon the issue-im-
mediate entry into the war
for the redemption Of Bel
gium-he would not only
prove his sincerity in his
assaults upon Mr.. Wilson,
but would get Just the eX-
act proof of public senti-
ment that would do him
good.
1t might be added that since
the colonel has expressed his
view that the government
should rely for its armor plate
and munitions upon private
factories he insert such a plank
in his platform. 1t would be
very pleasing to the gentlemen

BETRAYING THE WOOL.
GROWER

~ UT of stupidity or some
VI other reason that is
worse the Portland NOR
ming paper is trying to make
people believe the woolgrower
now has no protection except
from the war. 1t is an at
tempt to make a falsehood
serve a political end. 1t is stu
Pid because it tends to depress
wool prices at a time when the
buyers are getting into the
market.
Woolbuyers would like to
have the growers feel that
were the war to close the price
of wool would slump. Such a
feeling by the growers would
enable the buyers to make ad-
vantageous purchases. There
fore the Oregonian is playing
the buyers game and is hurt
ing the interests of the industry
il falsely claims to support.
AS all men familiar with the
facts understand, the best pro-
lection the woolgrower has
consists in the fact there is a
worldwide scarcity of wool.
For some years the supply OF
sheep has been diminishing
and the demand for wool in
creasing. Recently one Of the
biggest sheepbuyers in the
United States, Mr.. Shurte of
Chicago was in Pendleton and
made mention of the pronounc-
ed shortage in mutton, predict
ing high prices for sheep and
wool as inevitable.
During the wool season OF
1914 there was not a cloud in
sight to indicate war and the
tariff on wool had been wholly
wiped out. Yet good prices
were paid for eastern Oregon
wool and in some instances at
Pilot Rock the prices paid had
been unexcelled except in two
instances in 25 years. Is not
that convincing proof as to
where the woolmen may look
for protection?
The Portland Oregonian
should devote its time to aiding
the electric trust and other
"downtrodden," oyercapitaliz-
ed combinations and leave our
woolgrowers alone. They have
had a hard winter, have paid
out fortunes for feed and they
deserve just prices for their
wool this season.
