SELF DEFENSE IS THE LAW OF NATURE

editorial this morning the Oregon Journal says part
ut remains to be how much Of eud the bad blood
in the special session has created between Portland and the
rest of the state
"The impression left by the bitterness in the debate and the
asdtch stand in the voting particularly in the senate that
very wide chm has been created 1t may not be serious
appears If it is as bitter and general it seems it
would have been better Portland had financed the exposition
without asking for help from the rest Of the state"
1t would have been mmeasuraby better if Portland had
done that 1t bder to seek state tax Of the size asked
for 1t would also be better like julius Meier would
ran from telling legislators they did not represent their
sttuents The members of the legislature competent
than Mr. Meier to know what their people want.
Whatever may have in the way Of trouble between Port
land and Eastern Oregon brought about by acts Of aggres
sion the part of certain Portland people Portland forced
the issue and may be held directly blame for any misfortune
that may arise from the present situation Portland
pect to tell people that black white and get away with it.
They cannot expect to tax either gasoene incomes property
for enterprise that will be chiefly for Porands benefit
make people like it, They cannot steal road money and
support to plunge freight rate dagger into the back
Of Eastern Oregon without arousing resentment.
Contrary to the views held by there desire in this
section hece Portland to be unfair to that city to hold
grudges Eastern Oregon people generous by tempera
men They want to play fair with Portland and all other
tons of the state But they grow tired when people seek to
rampe them and tell them that God has ordained this
ton to be a door mat.

Some brought with them smiles tha

For the weary and sad and distress
ed,
Some came here with courage to serve
day by day,
Some came here with love for the

Some came to the 'world bringing
laughter and mirth
Some brought with them patience
and skill,
No one empty handed came down to

We brought nothing into the world.

But hold that that statements un-
true.
We brought nothing with us to spend
or to wear
And hunger was all that we knew,
But somehow or other it oft seems to
me
That all of us brought, when we
came,
The men and the women that some
day we'd be
And the seeds of our worth and our
fame.
We brought what God gave us-two
hands and two eyes
And mind that could learn right
and wrong,
The power to be kindly and gentle and
wise;
Some brought here the glad gift Of

or for other people. The first thing
that a physician prescribes for a man
in a critical case Is a nurse. He
knows that, whatever he may be able
to do for his patient, nothing will pull
him through but skilled nursing.
And what wonderful women these
trained nurses arei The mere sight
of them, with their cheerful, smiling
~countenances and trim, becoming uni
forms. has tonic effects upon a sick
How amazingly efficient they
are, too!
You will see a mere slip of a girl,
pretty and delicately nurtured, who
will take charge of a difficult case.
In n few hours she has a strong man
entirely helpless in her hands. She
will are for him as IL he were a
baby. And she will stand no nonsense
from him. II he fondly imagines he
will dominate her, he soon discovers
his mistake. There is the iron hand
beneath the velvet glove. She smiles
and humors and pets him, but no

her by a hairs breadth from carrying
out her intentions and doing her duty.
