A WORLD OF REPUBLICS

The United States the first to formally recognize
the republic of Russia 1t quite proper too that
the Oldest and most popuous of all the republics except
China should be the first to welcome the baby into the
family. 1t a rather dramatic occasion for the
American Ambassador Francis, and his military and
naval attaches received by the full cabinet of Rus
sian ministers all in full uniform. They stood in circle
behind their leader while Americas ambassador notified
him that by command of the American people through
their president he authorized to say to them that
the United States recognized the government, and
that he its ambassador would be pleased to continue
the intercourse with Russia through the new
The Russian Foreign minister DE-. Paul Mlukoff replied
for the ministers. He expressed his high opinion of
America and all she stood for and asserted that it was
these high ideals that had governed Russia in changing
her form of government He stated that it would be the
aim of the Russia to follow these lofty ideals and
give to Russia the greatest possible measure of individual
freedom 1t not long ago that the United States
and Switzerland had the republic style of government
almost to themselves 1t is not many years ago this
form of government in dsfavor especially in Europe
but with France adopting it and Russia it represents
half the people of the continent.
1t is only short time since this country welcomed the
largest and oldest government in existence into the fold
of republics that Asia well as Europe has nearly
half its people under a republican form of government
1t is highly probable that when th4 presen has ended
there will be still others for Uncle Sam to welcome into
the lengthening list of self-govelning governments

OPEN FORUM
ABOUT SIDEWALKS


\ few years ago North Commercial
street from North Mill creek to Column
bia street was improved by pavement
and eurbing. At that time / believe
there was but one lot that had cement
walk laid but since that time there has
been several blocks of walk laid along
this street under the direction of the
city engineer and the city ordinance
regulating the laying of walks one foot
from the property line. Some of the
walks have been laid at considerable ex-
pense in grading and removing trees in
order to have the walks on grade and to
line up along the whole street and be
uniform.
Now at the last meeting of the city
council an ordinance was introduced
providing that walks on the west side
of North Commercial street from North
Mill creek to South Street should be
laid six feet outside the property line.
The reason for laying five foot side
walks one foot outside the property line
* very plain but the reason for LAYING
a five foot walk six feet outside the
line is more than I am able TO
When walks are laid in pur-
suanee with the provisions of this new
ordinance there will be a Jog of five
feet in the walks and also the parking.
This surely viii not improve the looks
of one of Salem s most beautiful streets
and residence districts unless zig zag
and jogs in walks are considered beau
tiful.
The residents of North Salem have
been trying to help make it city beau
tiful and would ask the city fathers to
cooperate with them.

sheep would be one Of the best means
OF conserving the feed which these

Do NOT BUTCHER THE

Peer Practice, N Spite Of sAs sssss@s

The prices cbtatnRble fer cattle ana
hogs ut the present time offer a Sresa
temptation to sell. even the female
stock, that 10 hard to overcome. Ana
yet II we give q little thought 20 the
future. ene's better judgment would
certainly suggest the retention OF q
sufficient number OF the younger 70
male animals to maintain the supply
and meet the demand fer next ysAs
at least, II not for longer.
The writer 10 led to make this sug.
gestion from information received
that great numbers OF cattle and hogs
are being sent out OF the state, ire
spectivs Of sex. due NO doubt to the
profitable prices that can at present
be had for them. There Ia an old
saying that money counts" bat how
long Is 1t going to count" II our
stockmen dispose OF their female
foundation and afterwards nnd out
when too late that they have deprived
themselves Of the necessary females
to breed from and are short OF stock
to sell another year when prices viii
be just as high. II not higher?
II this practice 10 persisted In II 10
going to result In a shortage Of meat
animals when they may b needed
even more than at the present time.
In other words, It is not going to con.
serve the meat supply nor 10 1t ulti.
mately going to be the most profit
able to our stock owners.
It may be all right to get rid Of q
reasonable number Of the old and IN.
profitable female stuff. but there
should be a rigid line Drawn ct the
younger female stock II We hope to
maintain and increase the supply and
meet the future demands for meat
