nan Game Tomorrow.

pendleton fans will have their first
opportunity of seeing the Portland
recruits lin action tomorrow. A
game has been arranged between the
Portland bunch and a picked team
from Umatilla county. composed of
former Western Tri-State and anna
teur players of ability. The game
will start at o'clock at Roundup
Park. An admission of so cents will
be charged, the proceeds to go to
help defray expenses Of the team. The
Umatilla county picket team is out
to beat the professionals and they
figure they have a very good chance
to realize on their ambitions mas
much as Manager Fisher is not goins
to arrange his team so much to win
as to determine the individual ability
of the players. The picked team has
such former Western Tri-State stars
as Gunner Peterson and Bill McGar-
rigle, while Pilot Rock and Athena
are sending down some of their best
players.

Foreign Secretary Balfour declared
THE ideals of the German military
party and those Of great democracies
cannot flourish side by side. While
praising the Presidents principles,
German statesmen cynically and flag
rantly have violated them without
their own peoples reproach.
'Inexcusab bic ravishment of Russia
shows the lack of sincerity animating
the Teutons. Future world peace will
be jeopardized if such arrangements
are allowed to remain
Balfour said he had faith in the ul-
innate freedom of Russia and assured
Russia of "every assistance in her up
ward struggle"

There are also soldiers of these races who carly in the war joined the Cam adiau army. and are now asking to be transferred to the force of their own com- trymcn There are also American soldiers of Bohemian origin who may eventually be sent to the division. From Africa hn- drcds of these volunteers have already made their way to France, and the same is ;ruc of many subjects of the dual mon monarchy who had settled in South Amer ca. It is estimated that there are also sixty thousand members of the Czecho-Slovak army in Russia who are only biding their time to march against Germany.
 This division was officially recognized bv the president of the French republic, and although uominally under the dhec-

 Inc political sense, by national council established in Paris. Affiliated with the movement are natives of Moravia and Sil- csia who have been drawn to the standard lot revolt bv the same love of liberty.
 The cause for which fight the sons of the land of Huss is cpitomizcd in the mes sage of President Wilson to congress in which he defines the fight for democracy as one for the right of those who submit to authority to have voice in their own gov erumcuts, for the rights and liberties of small nations, for universal dominion of right by such a concert of free peoples as stall bring peace and safety to all nations and make the world itself at last free Cordova Daily Times.
