The Turks seem determined to utterly destroy the
Armenian people, They have again refused to permit
relief to be sent them and this refusal is accompanied
with stories of further atrocities 1t is consong to think
that when the present war the unspeakabe Turk
will be driven out of Europe and it is hoped before the
Russian bear gets through huggng him that his ribs will
be mashed in and his life squeezed out is according o
the eternal fitness of things that in her hour of need Eng
land finds this, her old ally who her presence in
Europe to England should be fighting against her. Had
it not been that England wanted to her to keep Rus
sa bottled up she would have been driven out of Europe
long ago. This time though England cannot stop the big
phorus and an open way to the Russia will fight
before she will be again denied the fuflment of her
dream of centuries and she will make peace that does
not include the freedom of the seas" Between Eng
land and Germany the Poles in about bad fix as
the Armenians, with the exception that they only
starved to death instead of being butchered The choice
between the two methods of being eliminated is not worth
quarreng about

BRowNELL SPEAKS AT WILHoIT

Geo. c. Brownell, candidate for
state senator made q red hot cam
paign speech at Wilhoit Sunday, in
which he lambasted the Clackamas
county courts of the past, charging
incompetence and extravaganza in
the administration of county affairs.
Other counties he declared just as bad.
He asserted that Clackamas county
courts have wasted $1,000,000 in roads
in the last - years, through incompe-
tence.
He declared Oregon the worst gov
erned state in the Union, for the last
~ years, charging the legislature
with squandering $3,000,00O for the
chair-warmers at Salem. He express
= ed himself as opposed to most of the
state commissions, particularly the
tax commission and the fish and game
commission. He declared himself OPP
posed to the convention system,
though he admitted he had worked it
himself for all it was worth while il was
in vogue. His enemies he said called
him "slick' One must be slick he
asserted, to cope with the crooks that
would rob the people of their rights.
He promised if elected to the state
senate that he would, within 4S hours
of his arrival in Salem, place law
on the statute books abolishing the
useless commissions and offices that
encumbered the state capitol - and
many believed him!-Aurora Observer.

IT WAS SOME GAME

The ball game played at the picnic
in woodburn Sunday between Gerrais
and woodburn was record buster.
Quite large crowd from Gervais as
well as from other places were especial
" interested in the expected game
Knowing that Gervais had only been
defeated by one team this season. they
wanted to see what tri-eity league
team could do to Gervais. The crowd
was hopelessly disappointed, as Wood
burn had only pickup team. thinking
perhaps they would make good show
ing with Gervais, but they were not II
at all.
The score was ii 10 in favor Of
Gervais at the seventh inning when the
game was called off because everybody
was leaving the grand stand. If Wood
burn 5 regular team had played against
Gervais it would have made an interest
ing game.-Star.

A BIG DAY AT GERvAIS

Wednesday was big day in Gervaia
it being pay day for S. H. Brown 8
loganberry pickers, which took place at
the Gervais State bank. About two
hundred pickers received their pay and
it took from o'clock in the morning
until after in the evening, as consid-
cradle time was spent in figuring up
their checks.
The amount paid out was $4,000,
which is quite sum to be placed in
circulation by one grower. One woman
and her five children drew $l40.-Star.

WILSON SENTIMENT

From the Olathe (Kans.) Register:
"I never was a democrat, but l tank
Woodrow Wilson will sweep the eouh-
trv for reelection this fall, said eN'
Governor st. John to reporter for the
Register the other day.
az am basing the assertion on the
attitude of the people in western Kan
sas,v continued Mr.. st. John. "While
| was in that part of the state dur,
ing NV recent nineteen days tour, L
took occasion to sound out my differ'
ent audiences on the candidates then
looming largely in the public eye. sue
cussiye references to Hughes, Roose'
yelt and Wilson brought tae most APP
nlouse for Wilson. Wilson's Mexican
nolicv. for which he has been so blt'
terlv attacked, is, in my opinion, an
element of strength. | am not eapa-
bile of criticizing the government
policv. The old plan of tying two
fighting tom cats tails together, throw
mo them over clothes line and letting
them fight it out, seems to apply forel-
blv TO the situation IN Mexico. But
Mexico is no scrub as it was in 1871.
II has fourteen millions of people ana
nm advanced civilization in many re
speets. To whip Mexico into line, as
some demand, would be job, neces-
stating at least two years time tHe
expenditure of billions of dollars and
probably the lives of 100000 men, In
addition. as an item of expense, would
be the formation of great pension

worq We don't want the territory
The whole proposition is absurd. TAX,
ing it as a whole, We never have had
n president more level.headed than
Woodrow Wilson.

What Is Mr.. Hughes Answer?

(Ths day after Mr.. hughes speech
Of acceptance was published, 81 Amer
lean writer's of nationwide reputation
issued the statement which is printed
below. The questions contained in the
statement are vital, and answers to
them by Mr. Hughes are absolutely
necessary in considering his claims to
the presidency. Though the high stand
ing of the distinguished writer's VINO
prepared the statement fully iustifies
reply, Mr.. Hughes has paid no at
tetntion to the statement, nor replied
to any of the questions. In fairness
and candor, Mr.. Hughes as candidate
for the highest office within the gift
of the American people, ought to make
reply)
To the Honorable Charles E. Hughes:
The professional writers who sign
this letter have small interest in
parties, but a very deep interest in
democracy. 1t is our hope, through
this voluntary association, to assist in
the promotion of honest, educational
discussion in order that fundamental
issues may not be decided in prejudice
and ignorance.
Mr. Wilson'S beliefs have been ex-
pressed in law and in declared policies.
He has made an open record by which
he may be judged. Wise choice is not
possible unless you yourself make
equally specific statement of purposes
and convictions.
Hithout intent to offend, we feel
justified in charging that in no single
public utterance have you filed bona
fide bill of particulars, nor have you
offered single constructive sugges-
ton. Generalities are without value:
blanket criticism is worthless.
What we desire to know, what it is
fair that the electorate should know,
are the exact details of your disagree
ment with President Wilson. What has
he done that YOU would not have done,
and what has he failed to do that you
would have done or propose to do !
Honesty and patriotism demand that
YOU put yourself upon record in such
manner as to permit people to judge
YOU as they are now able to Judge
President Wilson. for example
Would you have filed instant
protest against the invasion OF BEL
GUM and backed up the protest Win

Japan Plans to Build

Toxic, Aug. l9.-Japan plans to i'm.
prove her navy as fast or faster than
does the United States builds up its
sea fighting machine At least, that
is the deducation made by the Japanese
people from the just pronounced plan
to spend 254,000,000 to 3l0,000,000 yen
building battlers in the next seven
years.
Exactly what tine plan under consid.
Grafton by the finance department of
the government is, nobody knows, but
according to the paper Jill, usually
well informed publication, the outlay
for "the ideal fleet calls for about
$l50,000,000. Other papers estimates
are a bit lower.
A hot debate on the program is ex-
pected for the Forthcoming session of
the Diet because of the expense in
volved. The program is backed by
navy leaders and also, it is said, by
the ministers of marine and finance.
Newspaper reports have it that Jap
an proposes to build 3 superdread-
noughts, two battle cruisers, IL light
cruisers, 10 destroyers and many U.
