PRESIDENTS ME


7 UNFORTUNATELY for President
" Wilson, his mental genuhections
are likely to be mistaken for po-
litical expediency and as a result he
will lose the support of his countrymen
at n time when the natural disposition
of the people is to sustain the Govern
ment. A prominent New England ply
sician has just diagnosed his mental
processes and reached the conclusion
that he is mentally and tempera-
mentally unfit for the place of re-
sponsibility into which he has been
put by freakish circumstance" This
same medical expert in his further
hygienic analysis says:
Perhaps a fair picture of Mr..
Wilson's mental processes NAV be
gained by study of his attitudes
1t first he thought as a nation we
were safe; we needed no military
provision for the future other than
that we possessed and those urg-
ing preparedness measures We're
unduly nervous and excited. More
that year later he advocated
among other measures for our pro-
world. What had happened? Mr..
Wilson's mind, Notwithstanding his
knowledge of history and econom-
les. was not sufficiently alert to
grasp at the outset the possibilities
and significance of the great con-
flict across the Atlantic. While he
possessed a mental mechanism of
considerable merit he could not
with precision and dispatch CO.
ordinate it's parts. All of his be-
lated declarations favoring pre-
paredness and associated problems;
commendable though they be, offer
cumulative evidence of his mental
innrmity and are both interesting
and pathetic.
Thus it will be seen that President
Wilson is not regarded in any hostile
or merely partisan sense as incapaci-
tated for the high duties of his office,
but rather because his administration
has been characterized by vacillation
and lack of firmness. destructive of
that public confidence necessary to a
successful conduct of public affairs.

SHOW AN INCREASE

The sales at auction in New York
this week have shown an increase in
total quantities with very high prices
for almost every commodity.

poor condition, so that the average
will not be much more than S4 per bar

ducing results of $3.50 for barrels of
Boscs and $40 for barrels of Sickles.
Western boxed apples have increased
in offerings at the auction this week,
the total being ll,S25 boxes. The
average of the cars does not show up
as favorably as would otherwise be the
case on account of the large quantities
Of small sized apples in each car. By
looking at the extreme prices obtained,
it will be easy to see what carlots with

have run to small sizes which explains

GLEN ELLISON GIVES
A WONDER CONCERT

Thanks to the combined genius Of
Thomas A. Edison and Glen Ellison and
the courtesy of A. s. Keir. local dealer
for the Edison monographs. Hood Riv-
er people were given al opportunity
Monday night to listen 10 a wonder
concert at the Congregations church.
The big edifice was packed, both main
auditorium apd balcony.
The concert would have been good, il
Mr.. Ellison had not been here, and the
Edison phonograph had been used
alone. The concert would have beer
good had only Mr.. Ellison, with his
mellow and pleasing baritone voice,
been present. The combination of the
two took the hundreds who heard into
the realm of wonderland. They awoke
to a realization of the advance science
has made in the recreation of music.
The program Monday night was not
heavy one. 1t was the kind of music
that the average audience likes, the
songs full of the human touch. There
was humor in them and good cheer.
The wonder of the performance was
that of Mr.. Ellison singing duets, as he
said. with himself. So closely did he
blend his voice with that of the recre-
ated tone of the instrument that il was
impossible, even for those down in the
front rows to tell the difference be-
tween the two.
Mr.. Ellison has pleased audiences in
many lands. He has sung in Europe,
Australia and America, taking parts IN
grand and comic opera. He has trav.
eled the Keith and Orpheum circuits In
America. But no audience. perhaps,
ever enjoyed the genius of the Scotch
baritone more than did the people of
Hood River.
MIR. Ellison is master of bis profes.
sion. he is at home on the stage, and
the confidence of his expression. the
impression that he makes is conta-
gious.
1T would do you good just to see
him, even though he did not sing"
said an aged member of the audience
as he returned home last Monday night.
Probably because he is Scotch and loves
the Scotch melodies more ardently, Mr..
Ellison sings them apparently with
greater feeling. His NANNY" Bon
ME, Bonnie Jean" and 81 Love Las
sie'' brought down the house.
While MIR. Ellison did not sing any
encores, he recited Kipling's "lf" at
the close of the performance. He
showed that he is a master of elocu-
t!on.
