THE oVER-REACHING PRUsSIANs

The separate peace proposition long talked OF be-
tween Russia and Germany has taken new phase
Germany has refused to accept the terms offered by Ks
sa which required the abandoning of islands occupied by
Germans in Riga bay and the REIMBURSEMENT OF other
Russian territory held by the Teutons This shows the
hoowness Of Ge1manys peace Offers and that her pre-
tense Of being willing to have peace with no acquisitions
of territory and indenntes is only bit OF PrsSlan
camOuflage The kaisers minons worked the separate
peace" shell game the ignorant peasants OF Russia
until his grip was strengthened and the power OF Russia
weakened and then he showed his hand He would not
that Russia must practically surrender all her liberties
and become vassa of Germany AS usual the cunning
Prussan has over reached himself If it insisted that
concessions be made Germany in order to have her
secure her much talked of peace the Russians will go TO-
the other extreme and refuse to make any deal at all
with Germany.
At the BEST the proposed peace of German manu-
facture and it's advocates in Russia really German sub
ecs They worked the scheme until they thought they
in position to dictate any peace terms and nave
exposed their hand too soon The Boshevh their
last legs for they never really represented the great
and rend the usurpers Civil war is in progress and
while efforts being made to stop it, it is apparent
this can be done only by making terms with the Cossacks
and this means surrendering of their power.
Another thing fighting against the Bolshevlk IS the
lack of transportation which is bringing the larger cities
to the verge Of starvation and hughy people, especially
hungry Russian people, are dangerous to government
that is not backed by overwhelming force and this the
present makeshft of a government has not.
That the Russians may not be able to get back on the
fighting line is probable, but the situation seems
greatly improved from the fact that there is real
Russian government, hardly a sembance of one with
which peace of any kind be arranged The dachhund
quit wagging his tail and showed his teeth much too
soon The result will be the Russians will be afraid to-
further play with the dog

American Army VIII
Be Model Of Morals
By j. W. Pegler

Omitted Press staff correspondent
With the American Armies in France,
Dec. 22.-The American army is to be
model one in individual morals, sobrie-
ty and propriety of its fighting men,
II General Pershing can make it so.
The American commander-in-ehie to-
day isued formal orders prohibiting his
men from frequenting immoral resorts
and rigidly restricting the sale of in
toxieants in the american zone" of
France.
Light wine and beer alone may be
sold under certain restrictions in that
section of France where American
troops are located, under Pershing s de-
cree.
The general orders specifically an
nounce these restrictions are in line
with every effort to put the American
forces at the highest pitch of efficiency
by control over their private conduct.
French civilians and military Officers
have been impressed with the spirit
with which the American troops are ae-
quieseing in this desire of their COM
manding officers

Editor Journal:
Kindly print few lines for me as
to President Kerr of o. A. G. and the
matter he no doubt sent word back
to his henchman, Senator Hawley of
Polk county, that he had "some idea .
he might change his place and take the
Kansas place at the larger salary of
$4,000. Then Hawley got busy and the
Oregonian spread the news for them
that such a move was contemplated and
Kerr, very shrude politician, kept
mum all the time knowing he had
never been offered the position at any
salary. Next, Hawley, who has never
honestly represented the taxpayers,
started the petition to raise Kerr IS sal
ary, and with the aid of j. K. Weather
ford, another skeeming politician, and
a lawyer, whom all men should watch,
with some suspicion, as president of the
board, wanted to be popular. He shed
great tears of sorrow for Kerr who can
spend more state money than any off
cial of the state and give no accounting
of it.
Kerr should be recalled. Hawley is
not fit to represent the county nor the
interests of the state taxpayers, and as
for j. X. Weatherford who is respon-
sible for raising of Kerr salary, one
half more than any state officer gets,
it is an outrage on the people of the
state.
Now, look out for Weatherford and
spot him when he bobs up for office.
Now a word as to the Agricultural
agent. 1t is the work of the O. A. c..
to push an O. A. c. student on each
county, or ON many of them, at large
salaries than any Of the county off
GERS get; provide them with a stenog-
rapher to do the work of the office at
less than $l.00 a day and furnish him
an auto and 5000 expense money; office
supplies and fixtures. Now l think that
it viii prove about as profitable to
the farmers as the county fruit inspec-
tor, which is not worth anything, except
to himself, to draw his salary and ex-
penses. Some of the fruit growers 1
think the county agent might do good
If he was to get OUT AMONG the far
mers and explain and show some of the
benefits. 1t might be some good but
for the farmers to drive to town to
hear a lecture or to a night meeting,
there are but FEW who do that. So in
Justice to all, l don t believe it wise
for the county court to employ him.
Respectfully,
r. r. RYAN

SENATOR CHAMBERLAIN.
(From Oregon VOter,)


Senator Chamberlain has gone thro
fire and proven himself to be a far
sighted, patriotic statesman. Back east
they look up to him as to no other
democratic senator. His work as chair
man of the Committee on Military Af-
fairs has been of the kind that makes
history-and good history at that, in
which future Americans can glory. He
has made good, and it looks as though
it was up to Oregon to stand by him
as one of our state S principal contribu-
tions to our country during its great
crisis. There is some talk back east of
supporting him for still higher honors.
Oregon can be proud of what Chamber
lain has done for our country's part in
the war, and probably win have reason
to be proud of any career he may fulfill
in a larMger sense. Biekering of republi-
can newspapers who withhold Just credit
from him will have something to answer
for if they try to tear him down.

The great detective abstractedly
