THE SHAMEFUL DILLYpALLyING OF CONGRESS.

The pages of American history stained with the blood

carry out the DEGREES of buche The Indian, too, fought
from ambush but at least he rened from massacreng those
whom he called his friends German savagery spares nobody

Yet despite these latest records OF German slaughter

The house committee has emacuated the senate resolution

Harry Lane representing the State of Oregon in the Halls
the National Congress and of the twelve ibserin
who prevented the passage of President Wilson's
armed neutrality bill is only acting consistently with his past
record His latest disgrace only brands him the deeper
''peace at-any price advocate
During the election Lane professed democrat,
took the stump the State of Oregon for the reelection OF
Woodrow Wilson He upheld the president in the Mexican
situation and gave his hearty endorsement to the present adj
mnisation But Senator Lane would do nothing that would
tend throw this country into National honor is
thing that he never professed
From campaign speeches. take that Senator Lane had
always heart the wishes of his constituency back home Yet
he surely does dare insult this constituency by turning
his back the president in the hours of what probably the
greatest crisis in the Nations history he has overlooked the
fact that the State of Oregon standing sodly behind the

He has dsgraced the State while trying OF make present

DON'T SHUT UP GARAGE
Dangerous for Automobiles
to Run Engines in
70 Closed Room.

Tho collapse Of two Stcvcnsville
garage men who were overcome by
gas while working in their shop last
week has attracted attention to the
danger OF asphy xiation risked by all
Automobiles who tinker with their
machines in closed garages. When the
weather Is cold the temptation to close
doors and windows Is strong, but tho
risk Is stronger.
The federal bureau Of mines, in a
current bulletin points out the danger.
1t tells of a series of tests conducted
IN a garage, in which one OF the chem
lists nconsidcrably affected by the
poisonous gases. The tests led to the
Following conclusions:
An automobile engine should not be
opcroAcd In a small garage unless doors
an0 windows are wide open.
In the tests conducted, the air in
the garage was rendered decidedly
dangerous after the automobile engine
had been running Is minutes.
The gas made by automobile en-
Eincs In incloscd garages is known as
carbon monoxide,' said Director Van
II. Manning Of the bureau. 1T is a
cofOrless. odorless and tasteless gas. It
Is extremely poisonous because it COM
bines with the red coloring matter of
the blood more readily than oxygen
does and blood that Is saturated with
It cannot take up oxygen. The dan
nj of 10 n,rn
idc poisoning comes almost without
warning and collapse in n garage gen
orally proves fatal. unless outside aid
arrives very soon. because the run
ming engine continues 70 generate car
bon monoXide and continues to make
the air more poisonous. In the tests,
tho chemists found dangerous amounts
Of carbon monoxide in the farthermost
part OF the garage after 20 to 80 min
ntes running of'the engine. while near
the engine the air was extremely un-
safe when the engine had run about
- minutes. The observer did not re-
main in the dangerous atmosphere ex-
eept when taking samples of the gas
and was not exposed to the poisonous
air longer than three minutes on the
whole. Smarting and watering of the
eyes. due to the presence of other
noxious products Of combustion, were
the first effect. After collecting the
samples. the observer contracted a
headache and about an hour later be-
came dizzy, nauseated and very i'll.
