Hughes Speech

Theodore Roosevelt sat in box at
Carnegie Hall when Mr.. Hughes de
livered his speech OF acceptance and
vigorously applauded every telling
point
The Colonel repeatedly arose and
bowed In response to the cheers for
him and the shouts of Teddy" Ted
dy!" "Hurrah for Teddy. and when
the meeting adjourned he made the
following statement:
1T is an admirable speech and l
wish to call attention to the following
points:
Il am particularly pleased with the
exposure of the folly, and worse than
folly, of Mr.. Wilson's Mexican policy
and of the way in which this policy
has brought humiliation to the United
States and disaster to Mexico itself.
Moreover. l am very glad Of the
straightforward manner in which Mr..
Hughes has shown the ridicule with
which Mr.. Wilson has covered this ma.
ton by the manner In which he al

preston that although ne used the
strongest words in diplomacy they
were not to be taken seriously.
Not Words Which Count.
"As Mr.. Hughes said, it is not words
but the strength and resolution behind
the words which count. AS Mr..
Hughes pointed out, thsre is no doubt
that If Mr.. Wilson's conduct and ac-
ton had been such as to make the
foreign nations believe that he meant
precisely what he said in his strict
accountability there would have been
no destruction OF American lives by
the sinking OF the Lusitania.
when Mr.. Hughes uses strong
words his record shows that they are
always backed by strong deeds, and
therefore in the enormous majority OF
cases the use OF strong words renders
1t unnecessary ever to have recourse
10 strong deeds.
again, Mr.. Hughes speaks in char

which has come to this has

ion OF government and forthwith

Mr. Hughes has pointed out IN his
peech with self-restraint, but with

function which Mr.. Wilson's
administration has failed to discharge
nd that 1t Is precisely this point OF

FEAR FOR FUTURE CAUsELESS

The year 1916 has opened with op-
timistic uttrances from ordinarily
conservative authorities and with
facts justifying them which cut the
ground from under those who see
troublous times ahead for business
and danger in our present prosperity.
The great commercial agencies issue
forecasts containing not pessimis-
tic or qualified phrase. Industry con-
tinues to move every wheel overtime
to satisfy an expanding home demand
from merchants whose customers are
selling bumper wheat crops above a
dollar a bushel and other crops at
proportionate prices, and from work
men whose wages are being raised
voluntarily and who need never miss
a days work.
Banks have abundant funds and
the president of the greatest bank
sees no signs of that imitation which
leads to business disaster. Railroads
report net gain in earnings for No
vember of 70 per cent and 13 out of
Is railroad presidents predict for
1916 new high records in both gross
and net earnings. The same author
tiles expect to give large orders for
equipment and for terminal construc-
tion.
These evidences that our present
prosperity is healthy and that 1t will
continue contradict forecasts with
peace the main source of our good
times will disappear and an era OF
fierce competition will open. Judge
Gary's statement that rs per cent OF
the Steel Corporations record sales
are for home consumption and the
eagerness with which merchants buy
all that factories produce are proof
that we need what we make and are
not piling up surplus stock. Exports
in the latter part of December were
restricted by deficiency of ships to
carry munitions and prices of wal
stocks fell, but our industries showed
no slackening of activity.
Industrial and business revival was
overdue, having been delayed by the
Balkan wars and by tariff revision

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Thursday, January 20, 1916
THE ROADS QUESTION.

The question of more and better
roads will undoubtedly come before
the taxpayers of Morrow county for
final settlement before long, consider
ing the momentum which this agita-
tion is rapidly gaining. Whether or
not the reasons advocated for rails
ing the means would justify the ends
sought, leaves room for a deal of ar
gument ON both sides, but in the OPP
inion of The Gazette-Times, when the
question of permanent roads comes
to vote, the bonding method will be
found the best for raising the neces-
sary funds regardless of the type of
road to be constructed.
According to our county officials,
who have figured much on devising
plans for permanent road building,
s244,000 could be raised by voting a
bond issue. This sum expended for
hard surface roads would not go far
in this county although it is estimat-
ed that roads can be constructed here
as cheaply as anywhere for the rea-
son that we have all necessary ma
terials close at hand. Yet a macad-
amized road can be built several
thousand dollars cheaper per mile
than the hard surfaced roads, and
macadamized roads are regarded as
satisfactory.
AT the present time, when condi-
tions generally are in an unsettled
state, the taxpayers at large and the
farmers in particular are probably
not ready to assume additional tax
burdens, but when the time arrives,
the question of funds will be the first
to be settled. In the event bond
issue is voted, all property owners
alike will be taxed and the interest
will be in the neighborhood of s12,-
900. But the main point is this, af-
ter we have launched on the journey
of permanent road construction We
will have something to show for the
dollars spent, although, of course,
there will be some cost of upkeep
and repair.

REWARD!

The electric transmission line re-
Gently completed and in operation be-
tween Heppner and lone, the lives OF
the operators of that line, and Of the
public who travel the streets and
roads which the line uses, have been
through the malice or ignorance of
someone, placed in serious danger to
property and life. The line carries
an 11000-volt current. Contact with
that current would be instant death.
Safety from that contact depends up
on the perfect insulation where the
wires are fastened to the insulators,
and a continuous unbroken wire line.
A broken insulator releases the wire
and it drops to the pole, which at
once becomes a carrier OF the cur
rent. A pole charged is dangerous to
anything coming in contact with 1t,
broken liAe coming in contact with
anything living means death. We con-
structed the line along accepted
standards of safety to life; If any ac-
cident occurs through the act of any
one else they and not we are liable for
it. 1t is for the purpose of safe
guarding the public that the laws OF
Oregon impose severe penalty upon
those who modest or disturb the safe
operation of lines of this character;
shooting at or breaking insulators
or breaking wires may bring on SER
ious danger to innocent operators at
the generating station and the pub
lie. Disturbing the operation or loss
Of property is the least of attending
evils. We have our operators and the
public to safeguard. Therefore, we
will pay Fifty Dollars Reward for any
information that will lead to the
identification, arrest and conviction
of anyone injuring, tamperjng with
or molesting any part of our trans
mission line, and we give notice that
prompt and effective prosecution Of
any offender, irrespective of age or
sex will follow any such act or acts.
