A PATRIOTIC SPEECH
(Medford Mn-Tnbune.)

In answer TO partisan elamor for 9
coalition cabinet to conduct the war
former Secretary of State Elihu Root
delivered a patriotic address the other
night before the Republican club in
New York City, which displays a nobil
ity of sentiment that ranks il alongside
the president 3 war address He said:

the last election and now our first duty
is 10 control ourselves, to Danish from

sire to do our duty for our country. We
need no coalition government 10 make
us loyal. We must make a coalition of
ourselves, coalition Of all our people
to hold up the hands of the government
of the United States. T"
Answering the malicious criticism
poured upon Secretaries Baker and Dan
iels, Mr.. Root recalled the sneers and
criticism leveled at Secretaries Stan
ton and Welles during the Civil war. To
forestall complaints that probable fail
ures will evoke, Mr.. Mr.. Root said
"There is one other thing of which

from the first dying down of enthus-
iasm. The United States has never
had a war without its bungling and
its mistakes. Do not let us republi-
cans join in the band of faint hearts,
who, when criticism comes. withhold
their support. The inevitable shortcom-
ings of democracy in preparing for
war will come. Then will be the time
for the stout hearts to stand by our
country and say: No matter what
have been made we are for our
government and our country Let us
do this when the faint hearted and the
scurrilous are crying down our govern
ment. Let us stand by as we stood by
Lincoln when the faint hearts were say
ing, 'The war is failure In i'll re-
pute, success or failure, come what may.
let us stand by"
All of which stamps Mr.. Root as big
man as well as patriot. His speech
should find an echo in every heart.

JUSTICE TO HAVE AN INNINGS

1t that for justice rather than law is to

that Oxman the principal witness in the trial of Mooney
charged with exploding the bomb in San Francisco during
parade, that killed several persons had hired him as
witness tried to, to convict Mooney. OXman denied
this and went to San Francisco to refute the charge
Then Rga pointed out that District Attorney Fckert
party to the persecution Of Mooney for he claimed
it that instead of prosecution The grand jury took
the matter up the objections of Fcker and evident
ly found things that looked badly The judge
ining into the charges made by Rigal became con-
vinced there some truth in them that he suggested
the district attorney ask that trial be given

Judge did it himself To couneract the effect of the

'he spoke disrespectfully Of the flag" and called

"HocH DER KAISER
(By Request)

I At abanquet of the Union League
club in New York in 1899, Captain
coghlan, of the U. S. navy, reeited a
poem in which he took off the Raiser :,
well-known confidence in himself and
his uncompromising belief in the
doctrine of the "divine right OF
! kings" Some friction had resulted be
tween the United States and Germany
in connection with the Spanish war
land the Coghlan poem was one symp-
tom of that feeling.
Germany and Austria at that time
sided with Spain, as that country was
Z ehampioning the old cause at Bourbon
ism and was fighting a republic. Ger
man warships in Manila bay had even
sought to prevent Admiral Dewey from
taking Manila, but Dewey called the
bluff.
Captain Coghlan, of course, commit.
ted a great indiseretion in giving vent
to anything which would cast ridieule
on the head of friendly nation, and
he was reprimanded by our govern
ment-but the fact remained that his
picture of the kaiser was so true to
life that the whole world saw the joke
and joined in the laugh.
Though Coghlan was "punished" in
theory, he became hero in fact, and
some Of the phrases of his poem have
been quoted and requoted. Emperor
William has never heard the last of
the idea that he considers himself the
direct agent of God.
The Coghlan poem follows:
Der Kaiser of dis Fatherland
Und Gott on high all dings command
We two-ach! Don't you understand
Myself-und Gott!
Vile some men sing der power divine,
Mein soldiers sing "Die Wacht am

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash it with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries the
scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is
very harmful Just plain mulsified CO.
coanut oil (Which is pure and entirely
greaseless), is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can t possibly injure the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with water
and rub it in. One or two teaspoonfuls
will make an abundance of rich,
creamy lather, and cleanses the hair
and scalp thoroughly. The lather rims
es out easily, and removes every par
ticle of dust, dirt, dandruff and exces-
sive oil. The hair dries quickly and
evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky
bright, fluffy and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at cost any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and few ounces is enough to
last everyone in the family for months.

NEWSPAPERS
(Pendleton Tribune. !

(Pendleton Tribune.)
What a barren place a city would be
without the newspaper. If it were not
for the existence of the press in com
munity there would be very little life
in any circle of human activity. The
papers are public institutions in a
broad sense. They mould public senti-
ment. They encourage business. They
bring the interests of town together.
They make known advantages which at
tract families and business enterprises.
Yet the average business man is unwill-
ing to assist in the support of these
factors by that advertising which every
progressive man knows pays If the two
papers of this city were to 60 out of
business and no other were to take their
places, the chances are that three
fourths of the business men of the city
would soon be compelled TO close their
affairs and 90 elsewhere. The papers
do not ask charity. They do ask, and
have right to ask, advertising patron
age from every business house in the
city,.

WHAT PATRIOTISM Is
Bishop Wise Tells Topeka Soldiers of
Highest Duty to Nation.

Patriotism does not mean flying a
flag and singing national anthems. 1t
means that which is given to the
country in service during times of
need" This was the keynote of the
lecture given Sunday afternoon for
the military units of Topeka by Bishop
James Wise, formerly a militiaman
himself.
willingness to lay aside personal
affairs and obedience to superior Off
GERS mingled with determination to
serve and the discouraging of impure
practices around the camp are all
marks of the truer PATRIOTISM Bishop
Wise asserted.
The entire services were given for
the benefit of the military men of To-
peka. The several bodies met at the
armory and marched to the cathedral.

of the church, the hymn, Onward
