WHY THIS DISCRIMINATION?

Oregonian: An Oregon democratic
newspaper recently contained ring
ing. denunciation of the mail orde,
firm of Sears, Roebuck & Co., Chica-
go and Seattle, for its rare ilnperti-
nence in soliciting business in automo-
bile supplies from Portland. The
outrage was described in the follow
ing passionate terms:
Have Sears, Roebuck & Co., of
Seattle, ever paid any taxes, or en-
ployed any workers, or contributed
anything to the gayety or progress of
Portland?
Our home people, our neighbors,
our friends, including the home deal
ers in automobile supplies make Port
land, sustain Portland, nourish Port
land. and it is not Seattle, but Port
land that gives every one of us our
living, our pleasures, our homes and
our hopes.
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-08-07

Some of US, Of course. can get
along without automobile supplies,
and the appeal of Sears, Roebuck &
Co., Chicago and Seattle. therefore
falls upon deaf ears. But we have
found no way to subsist without but
ter, eggs and beef.
May we suggest to our democratic
friend that it turn from contempla-
tion of the woes of the local auto sup
ply dealers to the discrimination prac-
ticed by democratic president and a
democratic congress against the Ore
gon producer Of butter, eggs and beef !?
If we send our money to China for
eggs, Australia for beef and New
Zealand for butter, what are we doing
to support home industry?
Why the immense indignation
against the automobile supply dealers
of a neighboring city, and the tolera-
tion of the alien producer of beef,
eggs and butter?

An exchange says: Found-An
honest man, and he was discovered
without the aid Of Diogenes' lamp,
for he discovered himself. The
gentleman is no other than Represen-
tative Witherspoon who returned
$500 to the paymaster of the House
of Representatives for salary that
was rendered him, with the explana-
ton that he had been away four days.
1t is estimated that at this time of
the year when the house of represen-
tatives is practically marking time for
the senate to complete it's work, that
there are over two hundred members
of the house absent from the city,
and should these gentlemen follow the
action Of the Mississippi representa-
tive, it would save the government
over $4, 900 daily.

WHISPERS.

An exchange says: Whiskers are
a fungus growth of peculiar kind, in
digenous to the soil Of the lower part
of the masculine face. They are not
transplantable, much to the sorrow of
men with luxuriantly covered jaws
and barren scalps. If whiskers could
be transplanted there would be more
happy men in the world and flies
would be deprived of their favorite
coasting place.
The variety of whiskers is endless,
there being a special brand for every
man who wants to wear them. We
are all familiar with the patriarchal
brand that flows from the chin in a
regular Niagara of abundance and
takes the place of necktie, shirt
bosom, napkin, chest protector,
waistcoat and door mat. Side whisk-
ers are typical English but also dis
figure the face of many other nation
alities. Red Galways are of bril-
liant crimson color and give the coun-
tenance of their owner the appear
ance of scorching pancake entirely
surrounded by flames.

AS OTHERS SEE IT.

The Nez Perez Herald. edited by
Perry Mitchell, prominent democrat
of Lewis county, referring to the re-
cent $50, 900 libel suit against the ed
itor Of the Republican, instituted by
the Blakes, said in recent issue:
1T has been remarked by some
punster, and perhaps correctly so,
that if newspaper wishes a lot of
notariety, it places itself in a posi-
ton whereby it subjects itself to libel
proceedings. This seems to be the
case with Peter Orcutt's Orofino Re-
publican. just lately Mr.. Orcutt is
said to have criminally libeled J. w.
and P. H Blake, two prominent Clear
water county residents who went after
the willy Peter, and seek to recover
$25, 900 each as a balm for the hurt
inflicted. Well, to cut long story
short, it is mighty hard job to draw
blood from turnip, and if the
Blakes can get over two-bits from
Mr.. circuit, he is financially better
fixed than ten-ninths of the newspa-
per men we are acquainted with. At
the preliminary which took place in
Orofino the other day, Mr.. circuit
simply waived examination and that
threw all brunt of the burden on the
other fellows, while the accused
whistles and MARBLES like unto ca
nary bird, and labors on apparently
undisturbed.

THE VOTERS vow.

This pledge in blank is being placed
in the hands of every voter in Penn
sylvania by the republican state COM
mittee, with the request that each
man consider it carefully, sign it and
keep it in his pocket book, reading it
over occasionally during the cam
paign. 1t is so eminently honest,
straight forward and patriotic that
it will be copied by the party organi-
cation in every state. 1t reads
Looking forward to another cleo
tion, ! solemnly make this pledge
that l will sincerely endeavor to play
freeman's part as true patriot to
myself, my state and my country.
/ will strive to keep an open mind,
free from bitterness, class hatred,
sectionalism and all narrow prejudices,
and be intent only on serving myself
by serving my state and my country.
l will vote as my judgment and
conscience dictate and with sense of
my responsibility to God. No con-
sideration but my sincere judgment of
what is best for myself and my fellow
men shall swerve me in the exercise
of this the highest of all my manhood
privileges and obligations.
I will strive to be such citizen as
my country in her highest needs today
and in the future may count upon al
ways. No party or faction shall con-
troll me against my better judgment,
my first allegiance being to myself,
my family and my fellow men.
In thus vowing loyalty to my flag,
to my fellows and to my own man
hood, also pledge myself to use all
honorable methods to overthrow any
politician or party that in any way
seeks to deceive, hoodwink or corrupt
the electorate or that brings dishonor
on the American people.
/ make this vow of loyalty and in
dependence after deliberate thought,
relying upon the help of the God Of
our fathers in the keeping it.

Why did Sheriff Harper and John
Molloy make a night drive into the
Weippe country Friday night, few
hours before the time for filing
primary nominations closed? Who
did these Blake gang FOUNDERS go to
see, and why? If Sheriff Harper
has any special reason for butting in
to the republican party, and if this
old hypocritical fraud did get some
body to file, or tried to get somebody
to file on the republican ticket, it is
a dead cinch that Harper's candi-
date is not the kind Of man the re-
publicans of Clearwater county are
looking for.

LIVING NOW AND THEN.

Speaking Of the higher standards of
living, someone has happened to re-
member the picture drawn by BENZ.
Franklin of the mode of living Of
some workingmen of his day. In
his autobiography he relates how he
got his mates in a London printing
house to change their habit of break
fasting. From my example great
part of them left their muddling
breakfast of beer and bread and
cheese, finding they could with me be
supplied from neighboring house
with large porriger of hot water
Cruel sprinkled with pepper, crumbed
with bread, and bit of butter in it,
for the price of pint of beer-viz.,
three half-pence." -
Compare this bill Of fare with any
Of our day! And yet there were
intellectual giants in those days.
In Philadelphia Franklin lived on a
vegetarian diet at cost Of 36 cents
week. The consequence was that
after seven months of work he re-
turned to Boston with every mark Of
prosperity. He was, he says, better
dressed than ever, having a genteel
new suit from head to foot, watch,
and the pockets lined with near five
pounds sterling in silver. Fancy a
workingman today making special
note of the fact that he had new
suit of clothes, watch and $25!
The standards of living have adj
vanced almost beyond comprehension.
Most Americans are better equipped
with the luxuries of life than were
the kings of old. Many of them live
as kings. A contributor to Mcclure s
Magazine says: King Alfonso KILL.
has steak and potatoes for breakfast,
often preceded by eggs and sometimes
followed by a said and fruit. From
which it can be seen that the stan
dard of living referring to the bill of
fare-of king is not very far re-
moved from that of common Ameri-
can citizens. When prices are dis
eussed the standard of living should
be considered, too.

We would like to have every citi-
zen of Clearwater county, who be-
lieves in fair play, to ask themselves,
judged in the light of what Sheriff
Harper did July Fourth, how they
would like to entrust to this officer
their civil rights? Suppose the time
comes when the editor of this paper.
the man whom Sheriff Harper submit
ted to the most unreasonable exhibit
tion of official misconduct that the
Blake gang could devise, must stand
trial, and our very liberty and rights
are at stake, what in the way of JUS
tlce may we expect from the sheriff
of Clearwater county? Would this
officer be likely to act impartially and
justly? If he had the selecting of a
jury, or the serving of papers would
he be likely to overlook an opportun-
ity to throw it into p. l.. Orcutt :?
If AL Harper is dirty stinker, a
tool of the Blakes, as his conduct the
Fourth would indicate, is he fit to be
sheriff of this or any other county?
II sheriff will do one dirty, crooked,
disreputable job will he not do two
dirty jobs if the occasion should
arise? Has AL Harper not been tried
and found wanting? Are the people,
in the face Of what has transpired,
now going to say by their votes that
they think AL Harper is alright, and
that they endorse his disreputable
record? The results on November
3rd will tell.

CHOSE THE BETTER PART.

The following tribute to the late
Rev. B. E. Utz, published as the
leading editorial in recent issue
of the Spokane Chronicle, is worth
reproducing as mirroring the opinion
large per cent of people have of the
man who sees duty and performs
it, even though at great sacrifice:
He was an exceptionally good
business man. Men who knew him
said he would have been millionaire
had he entered business instead of
the ministry"
Rest has come. Busy hands are
stilled. A kind voice is silent.
Benjamin Edward Utz has passed
out into the broader life that has no
ending. Last week vigorous, earn

was to crown his career; now his task

He chose the other path. He turned
to life of service-not the service of

To feed the hungry; to help the neg
lectAd; to turn the faces of men and
women towards higher ideals; to train
