Beautifying of
Road Scenery Is
Commended

Oregon has been tagging behind
her two sister states in the matter
of organization for the preserva-
tion of its scenic beauties, accord
ing to Madison Grant, New York
attorney and nature lover who has
written to Governor Olcott COM
mending the executive on his move
for the preservation of forests al
ong public highways in this state.
In California, Grant points out,
the Save the Redwoods" league
and in Washington the Natural
Parks association of washington"
have been doing highly effective
work but efforts made by Grant
toward similar organizations in
oregon met with failure because of
a lack of interest in the subject in
this state.
The people of the east will be
very glad to cooperate with you
and your highway commission, in
your efforts for conservation Mr..
Grant writes.

(From the New York World.)
Friday and Saturday of last week
the republican National committee
: it's various treasures well supplied
with money, formally opened the
presidential campaign. Five thou
sand speakers, all of them well
coached and most of them gener-
ously paid, took the stump. Never
before in the history of American
politics was there a program so
comprehensive and costly. With
military precision, every man has
a sphere of operations assigned to
him. For six weeks to come their
one objective will be the ballot
fbox.
If this mighty demonstration of
partisan vigor and efficiency were
honestly directed it would be in
Spring in many ways, but it's lack
of honesty was everywhere in evil
dence. From the speeches deliv-
ered by the leaders we are able to
estimate the utterances OF all. The
keynote of Senator Harding, Sena-
tor Lodge, former Justice Hughes,
Candidate Miller in New York and
National Chairman Hays, not to
mention others, was most forcibly
sounded in the words of the last
named orator when he said that
the question which the people were
to decide was whether foreign
governments shall order soldiers
of this country to foreign soils to
settle foreign disputes"
We have had many political con-
tests involving conflicting policies,
MISUNDERSTANDING, prejudices, ig
|norance and warning interests, but
this is the first time a great party
has taken up it's position upon an
unqualified falsehood. The pur-
pose is to discredit and defeat the
existing league of nations and it's
its authors and supporters. To say
that anything in the covenant en-
powers lOTelSH governments " oI-
der our soldiers to foreign /oils to
settle foreign disputes is to pro-
claim an untruth both baseless and
wicked.
Thirty nine nations, including
every great power except the Unit
ed States, have entered the league
Of nations with full understand
ing of every obligation assumed.
the responsibilities of the
covenant apply to them precisely
as they do to us, opposition has
been confined to few perfection
lists on one side and to small groups
of irreclaimable Tories on the 9TH
er. Is it conceivable that all the
peoples of the earth,
barring only ourselves, have signed
away their liberties and surren-I
dered their war-making power to
an authority beyond their control?
If the United States is ever to
assume a position of honor, dignity
and power in the complicated af-
fairs of the world its statesmen
md its political parties must have
some regard for truth The re-
publican National committees 5,000l
