Support the Navy.

The message Monday contained no
paragraph more interesting than this !:
IT take it for granted that the Con-
GreSs will carry out the naval pro-
gram which was undertaken before
we entered the war. The Secretary Of
the Navy has submitted to your COM
piittees for authorization that part of
the program which covers the building
rdans of the next three years. These
plans have been prepared along the
lines and in accordance with tho pol
icy which the Congress established, net
under the exceptional conditions Of
the war, but with the intention Of ad-
herring to a definite method Of develas-
suent for the Navy. / earnestly Escem-
mend the uninterrupted pursuit Of that
policy. It would clearly be unwise for
us to attempt to adjust our programs
TO future world policy as yet unde-
eermined."
Ever since his conversion to the pol
icy Of preparedness. the President has
kept the Navy in mind. Asking for
tan Incompatible Navy" he has left
no occasion pass unimproved to en-
phasizs that sentiment. The result has
heea to bring many men in his own
party classed as "littie Navy" advo-
gates around to his point Of view.
About this matter the President
Apeaks advisedly. He has had opper-
xunity to 60 through the subject He
has. moreover, full confdsnca IN SEQ

nouncing crown prince on the late war,
showing Frederick William Hohenzol-
lern Is q man of prescience and judg-
ment. moderation and affection for all
mankind. We hardly recognize this
as the sanfe individual as he who has
been in the eye Of the world for some
years as the very leader Of the war
party in Germany.
Frederick William says he never de-
sired war, that he thought the moment
for hostilities quite inopportune in
1914. that he was not ut the meeting
of the crown council in Berlin that de-
cided upon the conflict; that he was
sure the English would enter the war
against Germany; that he knew Ger
many was beaten in October, 1914,
and counseled the seeking of peace
then, even at the sacrifice of Aisaee
and Lorraine, being told to mind his
own business Of commanding his
armies; that the Verdun attack was
q mistake: that air raids were silly and
the long range bombardment Of Paris
WAS useless: that deportations from the
occupied districts of France and Bel
GUM were unwarranted: that German
diplomats had made awful mistakes
through inability to understand the
viewpoints Of other nations.
In short, Frederick William, accord
ing to the interview just published,
tells some things that are undeniably
true, and some that may be true. and
some that will be accepted with definite
reserve. But it matters not what he
says. The point of interest is that he
has not renounced any of his rights
and stands ready to go back to Ger
many. This is 4 sufficient warning to
put everybody on guard against this
simple citizen.

Our Peace Mission.

by the President of the United States,
sails today for France. 1t goes charged
with a weighty responsibility, in the
making Of world decision by a world
tribunal to protect the interests and
safegard the welfare of the United
States, to uphold the ideals for which
our nation went to war, to secure in
the adjustment of world affairs render
ed necessary by Germany's unsuceess-
full attempt at domination settlement
of issues conducive to permanent
peace and preservatiye Of tho rights
of peoples.
Certain principles have been enun
ciated by the President in the course
of the exchange of notes and i'll pub
lie deliverances as the basis of the
peace settlement, principles which have
been accepted in the abstract with
specific reservations by the allies and,
rs a preliminary to the armistice, by
the central powers. In the application
of those principles, however. lies the
test of this victory over Germany.
National aspirations are in conflict al
ready. Great difficulties arise in the
arrangement of details and III dis
covering means of enforcement.
The United States occupies posi-
tion of peculiar strength in the peace
conference. It has no territorial
claims, it has no problems OF its own
affecting the international situation,
and if debts are assessed against the
enemies who have just been vanquish-
ed it has the smallest claim to offer
OF all the major belligerents. Yet it
goes in the person of the President
and his associates of the commission
not in the role of umpire or arbitra-
tor, but as one of the principals, with
grievance against the enemy, and
with 4 large stake in the settlement
FOR its own security and prosperity.
President Wilson has elected to at
tend the conference in person as direct
exponent of the principles lie has enun-
c;ated as the basis Of peace. Despite
considerations OF home security and
stability which his decision has evoked,
he departs with the best wishes Of the
American people for the success Of his
mission, waieh means the adoption in
the peace settlement OF principles and
OF details making for just solution of
the problems based upon righteousness
and equits-.
No spirit OF vengeance goes over
seas with this mission. Such punish
meuts as their crimes have earned
must be nleted out to those guilty OF
the horror which prevailed for four
and a quarter years, for the initial
violation OF treaties and the imposi-
tion OF inhuman and barbarous prac-
tees i'll the prosecution Of the war.
The world is to be made safe and not
only for democracy, but for humanity,
by restrictions upon the war-making
powers of the ambitious and by pen
alties serving as everlasting warnings
administered to those who brought the
late catastrophe upon peaceful peoples.
Whatever occasion there has been
for qualification at our entrance into
the war in the past. there is reason
now for rejoicing that we have . di-
rect right to sit at the peace table and
to aid in the settlement aud to have
an influential voice in the counsels
that it is hoped will conclude with a
fair and lasting peace.

MORE FARMERS
Arr: NEEDED

sprout where only one grew be-
fore is a great benefactor of man
kind and SO he il, and this be-
ing so, when We think in multi.
piles Of tens, hundreds and thou
sands, what wonderful benefac-
ton is the bringing of greater
agricultural areas under cultiva-
ton, for the increased produc-
ton of all kinds Of food pro-
ducts?
In any section, increase in pro.
ductlon is best accomplished
when two farmers are encour-
aged to establishing where only
one was before; in other words,
if we can get two farmers 10 each
work forty acres of any given
eighty acre tract. or four farm
to work any given 100 scre tract
and work these forties intensive.
ly, much more can be accomplish
ed and everyone more greatly
benefited than when one farmer
works the so acre tract alone. or
one or two farmers work the 100
acres.
The Union Pacific System.
with the thought always upper
most of building up the territory
or states through which it oper
ates, has put forth far reaching
efforts in colonization for many
years, and at this time maintains
at Union Pacific System head
quarters, Omaha, Nebraska, a
perfectly organized Colonization
and Industrial Bureau, the pur :
pose of which is to multiply ag-
ricultural and industrial units as
rapidly and as effectively as pos
sible. To bet accomplish this
purpose, it needs the whole
hearted and general support Ct
the public; of farmers already
happily established in Union Pa.
cific System territory, of dwell
ers in towns and cities, of trav'
ellers and anyone who has the
well.being of the country and its
citizens genuinely at heart, and
who. with q modicum Of common
foresight could fail to have such
interest?
Cooperation for the increased
population of agricultural Sec
tons can be accomplished in ma
ny ways:
If you are established as an ag'
riculturist in Oregon Short Line
territory, and you personally
know Of good acreage in your
vicinity available for purchase
or settlement, write us and tel
, US all about it. If you have
friends in the east who are agri
culturists but who desire to
change their locations, and yot
cannot evactly convince them o.
the advantages of making the
change let us have their names
and addresses; maybe we car
help them to a favorable location
The same cooperation may bt
accomplished by city or towr
residents or any one.
One of the difficulties of tn,
ACREAGE farmer in seeking a loca
ton is to know exactly where HI
, can secure the kind OF farm HI
, wants, either for purchase o.
settlement. People on the grount
know lest about local opportuni

WHITE SOX GO TO
BOSTON; SERIES
rs COLLINS LAST

Boston, Mass, Aug. 14.-Eddie
Collins today started his last ser
les as a member of the White Sox
regardless of the announcement
that none would be allowed to en-
list. Collins believes that his re
quest will receive favorable con-
s;deration when he returns to Phil
adelphia Friday morning, for the
reason that he practically enlisted
when he was in that city some
weeks ago.
Whether government officials al
low him to enroll as a marine or
not, Collins will play no more
games with the south side team.
Both the second baseman and Man
ager Rowland are in accord upon
that point.
1t developed coming over on the
train from Cleveland that Collins
received payment in full until Aug.
Is before he left Chicago. When
he conferred with the old Roman
and received the latter's congratu-
lations and well wishes Comiskey
insisted that Collins accept a check
for as long as he wanted to remain
with the club.
Today was the day agreed upon,
so when the game with the Red
Sox is over the second baseman
and captain will start for the Qua
ker City

CUBS Get EVEN
BREAK IN BILL
Nose Out Pirates 2-1 in Opener,
But Drop Second Before Heavy
Attack to =.

Chicago, Aug. 14.-In spite of
their fatiguing efforts OF the day
before, the Pirates of Smoketown
showed superior endurance in yes
terday's steaming double header
with the Cubs and COPIED the sec
ond game by the wide margin OF
Z to =, after the Mitcnells had
squeezed out a to l victory in
the first game.
Moreover, the Pirates fought the
second battle with patched up
team because several of the regu-
lars kicked themselves out of the
first game. At one time it looked
as if a riot call would be neces-
sary, as both teams got hot under
the collar over Empirical decisions.
At a psychological instant Pick
made a flying leap to hurdle Catch
er Schmidt, who was blocking his
way to the plate on a foolish at
tempt to score.
The backstop accused Pick Of
trying to cut him, and if Umpire
Quigley had not got between them
quickly there would have been
miXup. All the players of both
teams rushed TO the support of the
respective belligerents and one
blow probably would have started
merry-go-rouud. But Quigley
rushed Pick off the field to the
dugout, laughing at him all the
way and the rest subsidized.
Tyler was pitted against Carlson
