PARIS, August 17.-President Poin-

. visit Of two days at French port.
where they closely inspected the
Franco-American naval bases ana
were enabled to obtain . first hand
view Of the cooperation Of the two
navies in combating German sub
marines
Immediately after their arrival
tAere . report was received that an
enemy submarine had Just been sunk
By . French patrol while it was con-
frmed at the same time that another
submarine had been destroyed by an
American patrol a few days before.
President Poincare made a minute
INSPECTION of various American In
stallations at the port, being especial-
ly interested in the hydro-airpiane
station
Poincare Sees Convoy Work
While the two officiais were at the
port a convoy was signaled coming
war vessel and went out toward the
sea to observe the arrangements made
fer the protection of ships.
A dirigible balloon, hydro-airplanes
and rapid destroyers co-operated per-
feetly in preventing any submarine
attack which might have been made
The convoy came into the harbor with
each vessel, keeping In perfect line
until the anchorage was reached.
After this President Poincare went
on board a destroyer and participated
in the chase of an allied submarine
somewhere below the surfaee- The
chase lasted for an hour and IL the
submarine had been German the pur-
suit would have ended disastrousiy
fer It
The visit Of the oficials was ex-
tended TO the American depots, which
have completely transformed the port
A report was handed the president
showing that q convoy which recently
arrived from America discharged
$4,000 tons OF materials In ten hours,
thanks TO the efficiency of the Ameri-
can arrangements.

Speaking of the loyalty of the 2o.-

Opposed Church and State Union.
The cardinal became emphatic IN his
negative answer when asked IL q
union of church and state in this
country was desirable. I
"I do not desire that q union Of
church and state be had in our coun-
try" he said, but I wish from my
heart that the same happy condition
Of things now existing among us to-
day may continue for all time to

States may consecrate their time and
talents and energy, and their life

Christianity. II the civil authorities
built our churches or subsidized our
clergy they might want to have
something to say as to the doctrines
we teach, and we believe that the
gospel should be free.
Another mistake is made in sup
posing that, because there is no union
in this country between church and
state. the American people are not q
religious people, and have been
preaching against that mistake for
years. I maintain today as I main
tained at the time of my silver jubi-

PRACTICAL AGRICULTURAL
TRAINING FOR SOLDIERS

Director w. S. Thoinber of the Ex-
tension Service at Pullman, has just
returned from Camp Lewis, where he
completed arrangements for a pIacti
cal course in agriculture to be given
the men of the cantonment by the
State College Extension experts.
at was a revelation to me to learn
how the men were interested in agri-
culture" said Director Thornber.
"These men represent every western,
and practically all of the middle west
ern states, and the men from the
middle west were just as keen to avail
themselves of the opportunity to study
our methods of agriculture as are the
western men themselves"
The Extension service is undertake
ing the work in order that these men
might b given an opportunity to learn
practical farming from experts in gas
engine work, poultry husbandry, live
stock, dairying, grain farming, fruit
growing, irrigation farming, dry land
farming and various other lines. The
instruction will be given by means of
demonstrations and practical class
room work.
The Y. NJ. C. A. is cooperating with
the Extension Service in this work,
and the same course that is given at
Camp Lewis will be given at the Van
couver Barracks. and Fort Warden.

BILL WHITE SERVES NOTICE

(W. A. White in Emporia Gazette)
The republican party should not
consider Tuesdays result as victory;
it is merely and opportunity. 1t is not
an endorsement, but protest and a
chance to redeem itself. Any other
attitude on the part of republican lead
ership will be fatal to the future of
the party. At the election the two
wings of the party united. But the
prodigal son who came in did not
sneak in the back door; he came in
the front door with brass band, and
now he wants the roast veal. His
roast veal is thoro- going progress
sive policy for the republican party.
There is just one republican leader
who can develop that policy, and that
leader is Theodore Roosevelt. He may
rot enter the promised land of the
presidency; that is really unimpor
tant. But he is the only Moses who
for the next eighteen months can
formulate and put thru a policy of
progressive reconstruction.
We are not going back to the old
order The railroads never will be
hat they We're a year ago; labor will
not be sold again in the open market;
the society of nations never again will
be "a freebooter's paradise. Price
making of necessities like wheat,
meat, fuel and cloth will never again
be left to spectators on exchange.
Life for the average man after this
war will contain more than it held be-
fore of creature comfort, of civilized
amenities.
But these things will not happen
automatically. They will happen only
if the republican party in majority in
congress rises to an appreciation of
its great duty. If it fails to appre
ciate its responsibility then the dem
ccratic party will come into power for
a generation as the liberal party of
this nation.
That is the prospect before the re-
publican party in its hour of triumph.
It. is a time not for rejoicing, but for
prayer

F. J. Burke is spending 80 days in

man, who recently had a suitcase and
raincoat stolen from the Leavenworth

ect., the reply was that it had been
presented to him by Cashmere Or

the summer.
When the train reached Leaven-
