MAKE PARIS MORALLY AND
PHYSICALLY CLEAN

Can it be done by criticizing and
condemning it's present adn,inistra-
ton? We think not!
Socrates called himself the ONLY
politician in Athens, because his
object was to improve the State by
improving the souls of it's citizens.
1t can be done if the citizens so
will it. Every one has his work to
do and every one should do his
work. The exortation given by Abra-
ham Lincoln years ago should be
needed by every American citizen to-
day: 'I.et every citizen, every lover
OF liberty. every we'll wisher of Ills
r, osperity swear by the blood of the
revolution never to violate in the
least particular the laws of the
country, and never to tolerate the
violation by others. AS the patriots
of seventy-six did to the support of
the Declaration of Independence, so
to the support of the constitution
and laws, let every Amer lean pledge
his life, his property and his sacred
honor Let every citizen remember
that to violate the laws is to tram
pie ~on the blood of bis father, and
to tear the charter of his home and
his children's liberty. Let reverence
Tor the laws be bleathed by every
American mother to lisping babe
that prattles on her lap; let it be
| taught in schools, in seminaries and
i in colleges; let it, be written in the
primers, spelling books and alma
macs; let it be preached from the
pulpit, proclaimed in the legislative
I halls and enforced in the courts OF
Justice In short, let it become the
political religion o. the nation"
The responsibility to make Paris
better rests upon its citizens.
We are thrilled when we read Of
George Washington and Abraham
Lincoln. the Christian citizens, but
we ought to, turn then, to our
thrilled selves and ask what will
the world say of you Christian clt1-
zen? True, we may not have such
opportunities as their peculiar cir
cumsl ances gave theta, but we have
the right TO the same citizenship
and we are not excluded from the
same privileges. The citizens OF
every community have it within
their power to make that commu
nifty better. You are responsible
for your public servants. All Officer
is a public servant and should DC
worthy of the place to which he as
pires, and it's up to you. dear cltl'
zen. to elect those whom you know
stand for the betterment oil your
community in every thing that tne
word betterment rieaF,s. Mora
character should be the first test
and if he fails then, cast him In tnf
Junk pile. Whatever other qualiE
cations he my possess are worthless
If not fortified by that one element
which makes a man.

TEAMS GATHER SOON
 FOR SPRING TRAINING

SAN FRANCISCO, March 4 (by Associated Press) ).-Spring training grounds of the clubs of the Pacific Coast baseball league soon will be alive with players, veterans and re- cruits, working out the winters stiff ness iu preparation for the 1921 season. More than 200 players, it is believed, will train at the eight camps.
 As all the training grounds are in California, several of the teams will not have to go far from home. In fact Sacramento has decided to train on it's home grounds, Buffalo park. The Vernon club will trolley to Ven ice for the workouts while the Seat tie and Portland clubs will make long trips to reach their camps at Pomona and Santa Maria. San Fran cisco will go to historic Monterey, Los Angeles to Lake Elsinore, Salt Lake to Boyes Springs and Oakland to MyrtledaIe Springs. For several years the Oaks have trained at home.
 Training camp games for the coast league clubs are scheduled with the teams of several Pacific coast uni versailles and colleges, clubs of the

Mission league, winter leagues and the Chicago Cubs who train at Pasa. dena, Cal. The baseball team of the Oregon agricultural college is coming to California and will play three league clubs. Sacramento, Portland and San Francisco.
 Portland thinks Santa Maria will prove a lucky training camp for the Beavers. Manager Walter McCredie remarked some time ago that in four seasons, several years ago, when Portland trained at Santa Maria, his club won three pennants. The Portland club will be at work at Santa Maria by March 9.
