WINNING BATTLES IL
ONLY A STATE OF MIND
Lieut.. Sweeny, of Foreign Legion,
Tells What Victory Means.

Those who met Lieutenant Charles
sweeny. Jr.. American officer In the
French foreign legion. when he was
in Portland in February are reading
the press reports OF the present drive
by the allies with new interest.
Winning a battle or being de-
feated in battle Is not a matter OF
losing men, nor even OF losing or
winning a position" he told friends
in Portland during his visit. mo
matter how many men you've lost In
battle. you have won that battle II
you have made the enemy believe
that he cannot stop you. that no mat
ter what your losses or what he does
you are coming right along. In other
words. winning a battle is ques-
tlon of getting the other mans goat.
Aud you've lost when you have the
feeling that no matter what efforts
you make you cannot be successful"
Lieutenant Sweeny is the only
American who ls an officer In the
foreign legion, lie was awarded the
cross OF the Legion OF Honor not
long before coming to Portland To
visit his father, Charles sweeny. OF
Spokane. who has since died. lie
was allowed until May TO recover
from wound received In September
He left Portland early In April to
insure his return to the line "some-
where In France" where the foreign
legion is stationed

MAGNITUDE OF RUSSIA
AMAZES GEOGRAPHERS

as United States.
Geographical Review

Al present the Russian empire
encompasses az degrees OF latitude
and no less than i73 degrees OF long
ltude-that Is TO say. II doubles the
extent OF the United States In length
and nearly triples II in breadth, The
Empire state OF New York could be
easily set down In the S.6i7, ,657
square miles OF the Russian empires
area 1876 times: while Russia. west OF
the Trails alone. ls ten times the size
OF France and 80 times the size OF
England and Wales. European Rus
sla takes up over one-half OF Europe,
and Asatic Russia over one-third OF
all Asia. SO we find Russia occupy
ing more than one-seventh OF the
total land surface OF the globe.
IN discussing the various parts OF
this gigantic whole, custom has fixed
a dividing line between east and west
In the Ural mountains. This bound
airy. however. is. like the equatorial
line. more fictitious than real Euro
pean Russia and Western Siberia
are, generally speaking, one vast
plain. which slopes on the north to
the Arctic ocean and on the south to
the Black sea and the Caspian. This
great plain Is barely broken by the
Urals; In their central part, where
the Transsiberian railroad crosses
them, the ascent is so gradual that
one is not in the least aware of
ascending, until at given moment
sign post Is reached which points
in one direction ITO Europe" in the
other ito Asia" A slight change in
the character of the vegetation is also
noticed But before and behind are
the great sweeps of level country,
To the Asiatic side of the Urals
the farmers from the other end OF
the plain have been flocking for
years. in spite of the III repute that
accompanies penal settlement.
They find natural conditions very
little different from the European
side. but they find a virgin soil. a
chance to start life afresh. They are
Usually prosperous and happy and
less restricted By government regu-
lations. These are the builders of
the new Russia. In them there is all
the living promise of the future.
They have the backbone of the race;
they are the purest Russian stock,
and. at the same time. as pioneers in
a new country, their vision is broad
er, they are untrammeled by conven-
tion. they are as fresh and vigorous
as the untamed nature around them.

You. OF course, have your opinion
on current affairs. and believe that
you are right. Your neighbor has
his and is equally firm in his belief.
Respect the rights of each, and don't
scrap.

Go to Hear Humphrey

THE evident abandonment by ]. L. Chilberg
1 and other Seattle business men of the cam
paign of Rep. Will L. Humphrey is but the nat
ural bursting into flame of fires long shoulder
ing here against the Seattle congressman.
Only one Seattle councilman has come out
for Humphrey.
On every hand, there is the indication that
King county is going to bury the vaulting ambi-
tons of the present representative by an
avalanche of votes that will make new history
here.
In the house of representatives, Humphrey
has been a negative quantity. His colleagues
look upon him as a considerable joke. They
openly josh him about his ''duck-pond' post
office site.
Under such circumstances. Humphrey, at
the best would be worth little to the state in the
United States senate.
Besides his general opposition to forward
looking legislation, his inherent and unreason-
able enmity toward labor, he has much to answer
to the Northwest, particularly for his vote the
amendment favoring private shipyards, which
would have destroyed the Bremerton navy yard
chances for battleship construction.
His connection with the "duck-pond' post
office site purchase his raid on the United States
treasury to circulate private campaign pamphlets
at public expense, his vote to pay himself 81 200
as travelling expenses" for a trip he did not
make or intend to make-all these have contrib
uted to the collapse of the Humphrey forces.
Humphrey will speak at the Moore theatre
Tuesday.
The Star bcspeaks for him good audience.
Let all those who can attend his meeting do so.
Let us hear Humphrey. Let him make his ex-
plantations.
