A pEATHLEsS PRoNoUNCEMENT

We deem il well to reprint the
five cardinal peace points set forth
by President Wilson in his recent
New York speech. These should
be clipped and saved for reference
by every citizen who wants author'-
tative and concise information on
the principles involved in. the ap-
preaching peace peace which
Germany must accept to save her
self from utter dcsolation. They
epitomizc the thought of n world
statesman. and are destined to live
forever in history;
First, the impartial justice met
ed out must involve no discrinlna-
tion between those to whom We
wish to be just and those to whom
we do not wish to be just, 1t must
be Justice that plays no favorlteS
and knows no standard but the
equal rights of the several peoples
concerned.
Second, no special or separate
interest of any single nation or any
group of nations, can be made the
basis of any part of the settlement
which is not consistent with the
common interests of all.
"Third, there can be no league
or alliances or special covenants
and understandings within the gen.
eral and common family of the
league of nations.
"Fourth-and more specifically
there can be no special, selfish,
economic combinations within the
league and no employment of any
form of economic boycott or exclu'
sion except as the power of econ
omic penalty by exclusion from the
markets of the world may be vest
ed in the league Of nations itself
as a means of discipline and con
troll.
"Fifth-All international agree
ments and treaties of every kline
must be made known in their en-
tirety to the rest of the world"

Pendleton sidestepped what
would have been regarded as an
amusing inconsistency by retaining
its chief of police, who has been
lately under fire. To say that this
officer is responsible for the annual
orgy which follows the "high jinks"
at Happy Canyon, is to say that
a single stone may dam torrent.
Whatever may be viewed as to
the entertainment value Of Happy
Canyons wild west activities, it CAN
net be said that they are conducive
TO highly moral, sober and virtuous
conduct. AL. Roberts is not the
goat: he is merely in on the play,

Europe

The surprising thing is that a
man with large sum of idle mon
ey could have accumulated his
wealth when so profoundly ignor-
ant as to distrust government bonds
as an investment. The veriest
moron ought to know that he can
buy cheap land after the war
providing land is then cheap enough
to suit him-with government
bonds as we'll as with actual money;
that bonds of the United States
government. bearing four and one
quarter precent interest and paying
no taxes, are as certain to go to a
premium after the war as that TIE
sun rises and Gets. In viewing tie
Stacker or the shirker, let US min
gle a little pity with our contempt
pity for his amazing lack of the
knowledge that in the last analysis
is the only true and enduring
wealth.

The wealthy man who gives MOTH
ing to war work and must even be
begged, cajoled and threatened IN
TO the purchase of Liberty Bonds,
saws in effect that he owes nothing
10 society. In his amazing ignor-
ance and incredible obstinacy he
ignores the fact that all he owns he
owes to society-that without the
presence and cooperation of society
nothing that ne has would possess
value except to the extent that he
could use it for maintaining his
selfish existence. Since there is no
law that can reach such man, he
should be taught lesson through
community ostracism. If the banks
refuse to accept his money; if the
dealers refuse to buy his produce;
if the merchants refuse to sell him
goods. and if his neighbors refuse
to hold any communication or deal
ing with him and silently pass him
by when they meet him on street
or road, he will speedily be
brought to lively sense of his OBJ
legation toward country, govern
ment and flag.

country as truly as though he had

Washington, Aug. 13.--Director Gen.
eral Of Railroads McAdoo placed the
travelling public on the water wagon
by an order yesterday prohibiting serv-
Ice Of liquor on trains and at railroad
stations. 49,
Mr.. McAdoo decided that the govern
ment should not be q partner in the
liquor traffic and one Of his first Of
fetal acts was to issue the, following
order: Il
THE sale OF liquor and intoxicants
OF every character In dining cars, res
taurants and railroad stations under
federal control shall be discontinued
Immediately
No time is given the dining car COM
panies and station hotel and restau-
rant companies to dispose OF stocks
Of liquor on hand by retail. They will
be expected to remove them from the
premises Immediately and close all
bars.
The Pennsylvania railroad station in
New York will be the hardest hit by
the new ruling. Bars in that station
did heavy business. The transconti-
mental dining car companies also will
lose big profits. Passengers making
the trip across the continent will he
required to carry their own liquor re-
freshments or have dry trip. !
