10 the creQlG OIL IISo' "ASOAA ~ AAAe"J
he said that as soon as. his attention was
called to tie possibilities OF frame-up
against Thomas J. Mooney who had
been convicted OF completely in the San
Francisco outrages he Immediately order
al 4 stay of the execution OF the death
sentence in MONEYS case and ap-
oganted commission to examine into
she facts. That the President did an
act of Justice toward Mooney appears
rom the recommendations OF the COM.
mission, urging that in TIE event that
the California state supreme court sus-
8ains MONEYS conviction because SUBJ
sequent developments such as the Oxman
serjury are not part OF the record OF
she case that the Governor OF California
and pros ecuting officers be invoked to
zscure new trial.
The commission says that Mooney is
"a vell-known labor radical on the
Pacific Coast.
%"The public mind was therefore easily
xroused to believe in the guilt OF the
accused says the commission. The
attitude of passion was stimulated by all
the arts of modern journalism. 1t was
aot surprising then that Billings and
Mooney were tried in an impregnatlng
atmospLee of guilt.
''There is no question but that the
Jury acted in good faith upon the evidence
as it was submitted. 1t is because OF
subsequent development that doubt Is
based upon the justice Of tie convictions.
Following tie trials Of Billings and
Mooney there was change IN the
evidence which not only resulted in the
acauittal of Mrs. Mooney and Weinberg
sut also cast doubt on the prior con-
rictiu1s Of Billings and Mooney.
This is due to the dubious character
# the witnesses, the subsequent revela-
iaas concerning them and the conflict
q. the testimony of the sane witnesses as
the need for change in the testimony
developed to fit new theories OF the pro-
secutjon of new evidence by the defense.
1--WE find in the atmosphere surround
ing the prosecution and trial OF the case
sraund far dfsuuietude. This feeling is
rEs+anfmced by one factor of controlling
Importance. The most damaging tes-
Eimony produced against Mooney came
from witness named Oman. After
MONEYS conviction there came to light
ssttas eonfessedly written by Oxman
prior to his having been called to testify.
Tie plo.ir import of there letters is an
attempt by Oman to suborn perjury IN
s,orroboration of the vital testimony which
az was to give and which in fact he did
give against Mooney.
1T is, as we said, to the credit OF tie
President that he Immediately saw his
duty and did it, The regrettable and
almost humiliating thing about it is the
fact that the attention of the Government

situation thru meetings held in Russia,

The press of this country which should
lave sent note of warning to it's readers
spprising them Of tie frame-up that was
icing pulled off at San Francisco were
silent and the radical newspapers who had
She temerity to publish tie facts as they
saw them, are being put out of business
30 that it will be ever SO much harder to
learn the true facts in similar frame-up
Eases in the future.

It seems that things got more or less
mixed up last fall and tie Northwest can
well afford to Ee patient with those in the
east who are suffering much greater
hardships than we have known. It
also teaches a lesson of conservation
of fuel and supplies so that like situa-
ton may not develop in this part Of the
country. -.

Since tie war te.an we have grown
accustomed to hearing sums Of money
and numbers of men mentioned in mil
lions and billions. Have you any idea
how many units tie billion repre- ents?
Someone has figured it out that if man
had lived from tie tine of Christ to
the pre- ent time and had worked almost
night and day and had received for his
labors one dollar for every minute OF
time he had spent at work he would
still not have earned or received a
billion dollars. In other words billion
contains nearly as many units as there
have been minutes of time since Christ
was born in Bethlehem. It is a rich old
world, isn't it that can afford to blow a
billion dollars into nothing every few
days?

Bessarabia has declared her indie
pendence of Russia and is said to show
a marked leaning toward Rumania,
from which it was separated by force
after the Rumanians had helped Russia
in the war against Turkey. A Berlin
dispatch Of January 29 reports the fall
of Premier Bratiano, who precipitated
his country into the war, and messages
from Swedish sources announced on the
same date that Rumania and the Central
Powers were negotiating peace terms.
Rumania has been asked to give up the
Daboudja, taken from Bulgaria, receding

Partisan Patriotism

Nothing, in our opinion, serves cause
better than a thoro investigation, pro-
vided always, that such investigation
is carried on for tie purpose Of arriving
at the truth and not for tie purpose OF
discrediting a public official. For some
weeks now tie office of the Secretary of
War has been in tie lirlelight and has
received a great deal of adverse criti-
cism. Some of the men on the Senatorial
Military Committee have been quite
vehement in their language against
Secretary Baker and great many of
the daily papers Of tie country have
editorially advocated that Sen. Baker be
retired. There are now rumors afloat
to the effect that this investigation of
tie office of the Secretary of War and his
denunciation in the daily press was
a wel-planned propaganda inaugurated
by the big interests Of this country to
force the retirement of Secretary Baker
because he refused to give in to the
interests in the matter of tie war con-
tracts. Tie fact that Pres. Wilson i'm
mediately came to tie rescue OF Sec
rotary Pa'-er, assuming tie entire re-
sponsibility for this department. r and
opposing the formation of war COM
mission lends color to tie report that
Baker was to he shelved for selfish
reasons. .. O.. -sE.- &1.. ~
It is we'll for us to suspend judgment
and try to get at the truth before We con-
Ce1nn on one si6e or laud otEers for their
los al attitude. and spirit and patriotic
sentim ents which may be prompted
purely and solely by personal and
selfish motives.
