PRES. WILSON'S
 POLICY BLESSING
 TO THIS NATION While Political Opponents Declare War Executive
 Keeps Cool Head
tBy B. F. Fly.)

(By B. F. Fly)
 The czar of all czars, the big bell-wether of the ultra stand-patters, more familiarly known as "Uncle Joe" Can non, has at last sounded the keynote for Candidate Chas. E. Hughes. It is War; in great big capital letters-war to the knife, and thence to the hilt and back again.
 Arising from his seat in congress the veteran statesman from Illinois, who served about six terms as speaker of the House of Representatives in Congress, he has sounded the trumpet to arms, thereby giving his party the much sought-for issue in the present presidential campaign In no uncer- tain words he denounced President Wilson for having failed to declare war on Mexico, and yet Uncle Joe" has shown capacity enough to keep his mouth shut until he sees we are reasonably prepared to defend our selves against the we'll organized, well equipped. well seasoned soldiers of our sister republic. He has had the political sagacity to wait until almost the entire country is aflame because of the soldiers passing by the thous- ands to the Mexican border. He has waited until he beheld the handwrit- ing on the wall-the annihilation of his party at the approaching election and now, like drowning man clut- ching at a straw he jumps into the limelight and thunderously declares for war
 But will he and his party gain any thing politically by any such declara- tion? We have been standing on the very brink of war for the past ten days Almost any other man on earth except the even-tempered, even-balan- ced Woodrow Wilson, would long since have declared war on Mexico, and by so doing would have sacrificed thousands of innocent lives from one end of the Rio Grande to the other, for if has only been within the last two or three days that the. United States has had enough men to keep the Mexicans from crossing and re- crossing our border at will. Instead of unorganized bandits it would have been organized Mexican soldiers, and instead of a few dozen precious lives lost at the hands of cut-throats it would have been thousands of prec- ious lives all along the Arizona, New Mexico and Texas border sacrificed at the hands of Carranzistas.
 President Wilson had sense enough to see these things. Rather than see innocent American lives snuffed out, because of the total lack of adequate army protection, he has permitted himself to be ridiculed and abused by people who are eyer ready to y''sick i'm Tige," but who are not themselves willing to shoulder musket and go

CIark's Wife Says She
Not Husband Is Guilty

Z. J. Clark, who escaped from the
Oregon state penitentiary in 1913, was
arrested in Spokane Saturday, thus end
ing search which has lasted for near
ly three years.
The records show that Clark, who has
been living in Spokane under the alias
of NJ. Rinehart, was committed to the
penitentiary from Union county under
sentence of from one to five years
for obtaining money and goods by false
pretenses.
When he escaped he was a trusty and
was engaged in painting at the asylum
for the insane. HE pursuit by the pris-
on officials after his getaway had SEN
sational features, he being fired upon
at one point while he was swimming
the Columbia river.
A dispatch from Spokane says:
Mrs. L. J. Clark, wife of L. j. Clark,
alias Melvin Rinehart, arrested here to-
day as a fugitive from the Oregon state
prison, sticks to her story that il was
she and not her husband who forged
the checks on La Grande merchants
which resulted in Clark s being SEN
fenced to the penitentiary October Is,
1912, from which he escaped February
10, 1913.
For three years the Clarks have
been living in Spokane, where Clark
has been employed as engineer in a
hotel.
Mrs. Clark's story is that she, with
her husband was on her way from
Roosevelt, N. NJ, where they were mar
ried, to Seattle, to be with her mother
upon the arrival of an expected baby.
At La Grande, she says, they became
stranded, and she claims she forged
checks to get money to continue the
journey.
Mrs. Clark says she will appeal to
Governor Lister to prevent extradition
of her husband to Oregon.

Wars Effects in Russia

She has not shirked in battle. has

blood and bone and notwithstanding,
is better off today than she was two
years ago.

Russia has nearly 200 million peo-
pie of whom about l50 million, or 50
per cent are peasants. These are bet
ter OFF than ever in their lives. They
| get good cash prices for what they sell
The high cost of living does not effect
them much as they live off their farms
Labor is scarce but what there is, is
sober and accomplishes more than used
to be accomplished when it was plcnti
! ful.
| The peasants today have money
Prior to the war, 800 million rubles

| villages and country to pay for drink
| All tnis money now remains in tho
country.
Some 800 million rubles Il year are
now paid by the government as
pensions or war allowances to the fam
lies of soldiers. Therefore, at least u
billion 800 million rubles a year are
now in the villages and country
which, before the war; were not there.

the lowest prices can be secured in

CAMP LIFE Is
DOING MEN GOOD
Rigors of Mobilization Life Fit
ting Pennsylvania Soldiers
For Border
[From a stafr Correspondent

Camp Brumbaugh, Mt. Gretna, Pa.
July Every day that goes by with
the Pennsylvania Guardsmen still in
camp is a gain for them. In spite of
all the clamor of being rushed to the
border and the prospect of getting
settled in camp within sight of Mexico
there are a good many men here who
realize that if they can have a week
or ten days more in the mobilization
camp they will be all the better for it.
Unquestionably the strict adherence
TO the requirements of the United
States army medical examination STAN
dard, in enforcement of which Cap
tain ]. B. Kemper, the senior muster
ing officer, has been upheld by Major
General Leonard Wood, Will mean
lives to the Pennsylvania division.
The men accepted conform to the
Strictest system in the world and only
those who are fit for arduous work on
the border are taken Incidentally,
the men are being given medical treat
ment and are being drilled, broken in
to army ways, taught TO take care of
themselves and what to eat and when
to eat. Men who were eating the fat
of the land and at any time a week
ago are getting down to army fare
and are glad to get It after marching
around in the sun.
Marching and drilling are the big
things now. The colonies are turning
, out their men bright and early and
! keeping them out. The Tenth infan-
try set the pace in this respect and its
men have worked early and late and
are getting hard as nails. The Eigh-
teenth, which is commanded by for
mer Harrisburger, Col. z. l.. Kearns,
is whipping recruits into shape and
working hard at it. Yesterday for the
first time the whole Eighth regiment
was put on the drill field and given a
taste of hard drilling. Colonel Fin
aey's men showed up well and gave
evidences that the sergeants had been
getting results, while for general ap-
Uearance they We're much compliment
ted. The Eighth continues its splen-
did health reports. Col Ffnney is
getting together a fine regiment. ac-
cording TO the staff officers who have
been watching him and for morale il
ranks among the best The old men
are keen for the traditions of the regi-
ment and are keeping the spirit in the
recruits.
The men are now being given in
struction in how to handle their rifles
and every day you can see them ad-
Vancing ir skirmish line, working in
extended order or making a massed
attack on some tree or the pumping
station Or some other object supposed
to contain some belliEerent foes These
drills are adding variety to an other

/ the men feel better. The longer they
