TREES OF The CAPITAL.
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

After many years Of unregenerate ex-
travagance. we are beginning to ap-
preciate the value of trees. Formerly.
they were not considered much of an
asset. When new land was opened up
for settlement the, first task Of the
settler was to cut down all the trees
In sight to make way for corn neios
and streets and houses: and any man
found planting anything but fruit
trees was regarded with plying sus-
picion. Now the planting Of trees has
become not only an economic necessity.
but often an individual obsessfon. Peo-
pie will have trees even at the expense
of vegetables and geraniums. In the
opening up of new suburban districts.
trees are better selling agencies than
good drainage; and the systematic
planting of street trees is being car
ried forward on a big scale by all the
larger municipalities.
The great and shining example in
street trees is Washington. Here there
are nearly 500 miles of them. compris-
ing altogether 100000 trees. which fs
on the average of one to every third
Washingtonian. This number Is ex-
run high up in the thousands. In sum-
mer when the foliage is at Its best
many of the streets lie under great
arches of oak and elm branches. which

tors in earning for Washington Its
reputation as one of~the most beau

Pile are extremely proud Of the shade

| the war those of Paris were considered
especially remarkable, although they
could not compare in number or foliage

a sacred institution, protected and ad-
mired by every German citizen, who re-
fuses to believe that they are not su-

Washington's only formidable rival in

much part of the city as Washington.
Nothing can be more delightful than
| the views up and down the wider
| streets and avenues, especially those
| that look toward the setting sun or
catch some glow of the evening light"
Mr.. Bryce even proceeds to be en-
thusiastic in detail Look southwark -

or even westward along modest little n
street. and you have the most charm
II ing sylvan views, and all this by reason
of the forethought and taste of those
who have administered the government
of the city and who have planted vari-
Gus species of trees. so that you have
different kinds of sylvan views. When
yon want a fine, bold effect, what could
|
incline rising steeply to the north, and
the hills of Virginia as the background? =?
There are few finer streets in any city"
Trees were one of the principal fea-
lures in the original landscape plan of
Washington. Individuals planted many
and Thomas Jefferson was an enthusi-
asst on the subject, personally supervis-
ing the planting of several in various
public places. A row of elms planted
by Jefferson is still standing.

HE'S BOOSTED OROFINO.

Talking about Orofino and her unde-
veloped industries reminds us that it
was an Orofino paper that exerted
every possible effort to close down
and tie up the Orofno cement company
two years ago. The ground is now
utilized for corn and cabbage, while
the Orofino Tribune and it's editor
continues to exc out a living at the
hands of the community he knocked.
Why shouldn't Orofino merchants sup
port the Tribune? The Tribune justi-
fled its knocking on the ground that
the cement company was no good.
But Mr.. Crow admitted that he tried
to hold the company up for $500, the
purpose of which was to get the inf1u-
ence of the Tribune behind the this
same company. We are mentioning
this to remind Orofno merchants that
the Tribune is entitled to the loyal
support of Orofino, and has always
labored to advance the town. |. R..
Crows management of the county fair
is another shining example of COM
munity development and boosting that
Orofino business men should not for
get. Whatever this community has
accomplished it has done with the
Orofino Tribune hitched to the tail
end of the load that others have had
to overcome. That's what Brother
Grow has called putting Orofino on
the map Why shouldn t the town
support the Tribune? Why shouldn t
merchants feed |. r. Grow at the ex-
pense of the taxpayers from public
printing, to the exclusion of the
Clearwater Republican? Not only
the merchants and boosters, but those
who believe in law enforcement
should support |. R. Grow and his
paper. He cleaned up Clearwater
county. What nice thing it woule
be if the Republican We're starved Out
and the Orofino Tribune had the
whole field. 1t would see that public
sentiment backed up officials willing
to do right. The w. G. T. U. shoule
get behind the Tribune and help rein,
state it in power.

Advertising is a business proposition.

that the business men of 0rofino

According to President Wilson

According to President Wilson a
democratic platform pledge is "a
scrap of paper, to be set aside after
election. Which is the most humiliat-
ing and demoralizing position any
political party can take. A platform
pledge is an obligation, as sacred as
human pledge can be, and any party
leader, or any party, who fails to
keep faith with the people, is dishon-
est, dishonorable and unworthy, and
should be rebuked by the people.
President Wilson cannot honorably
excuse a single broken party pledge.
If he could not accept the platform of
his party he had no moral right to
accept the nomination. Having ac-
cepted the nomination Woodrow Will
son soon automatically subscribed to
every plank in the democratic plat-
form and he violates or ignores these
party pledges at the sacrifice of his
honor and manhood. Today Woodrow
Wilson, president of the United
States, is platform repudiator.
How can one respect such man
How can good citizens endorse this
kind of dishonesty, thereby putting
their stamp of approval on it? Are
the people willing to subscribe to the
doctrine: "A platform pledge is not
binding?''

If it takes the United States ten
days to marshal an army of five
thousand men on the Mexican border
to start after a mere handful of Mex
lean bandits, mere handful of rag
ged, dirty sneaking towards, how
long would it take our army to get
ready to meet a quarter of a million
trained soldiers that Japan could land
along our coast in thirty days? And
yet some people object to Uncle Sam
making any preparation for defense.
Such people ought to move down into
New Mexico and be made to live
along the Mexican border next door

phrase, unimportant convert to the
cause Of preparedness, while he has

Tense, two words for Wilson. This
