thought ne was mature, experienced and even blaze, when really he was more ignorant himself than the com monest clod
 Well, this pathetically unemployed hero fell in love with the heroine, of course. Yes, he truly fell in love. He hardly knew it at the time, for he was selfish young animal and little un- derstood what love really meant. Per haps it was more desire than love. Anyway he won the heroine.
 And then, you see, trouble began. He was primitive sort of animal and his real civilization only began to be foreshadowed when he married the heroine. He demanded everything, gave little, and thought less. And all the time he knew that she loved him. And he loved her, too, more blindly and passionately every moment that he did the very things to kill her love.
 "Of course the end was bound to come. There were bickerings and scenes and there was brutal indiffer- ence and exasperating sights.
 And finally the crash came. The bitter things she said in answer to the bitter things he said ranked in his heart until he no longer could stand it, and he determined to go away and forget So the hero and the heroine agreed to disagree and the hero was to have left for Mexico to- day-and never trouble the heroine more"
 And why did he not go?" asked the woman.
 He went to the train and boarded it." the man replied, regarding her steadily, but the flood gates of his memory opened and the tide of his great love swept over him and the knowledge that there was to be this box party came to him, and he knew she would be here-and the hunger of his heart drove him to leave the train to come here and see her once more, if only from distance. And he is a boy no longer but man who has put away boyish things forever"
 "The heroine" said the woman very softly, was also very young and had never been taught many things she should have known. She never knew about tact and-and-that sort of thing. She also had great love which grew with the years, but did not know how to express it."
 Don't you think the hero might have another chance-that they might start over again?" he said eag- erly
 The smile she turned toward him was so soft and womanly that the face of the woman was transformed.

The recent effort to get the post office building hurried a little is com mendable and it is to be hoped that we will not have to wait two or three years. We need a post office build ing now. It is also encouraging and quite the proper thing to do for both sides of town to largely unite in the choice of a site. This will simplify the solution of the problerl when the government representative arrives. Prescott is capable of doing some things in the proper way, anyway.

A stubborn, annoying, depressing cough hangs on, racks the body, weak ems the lungs, and often leads to ser lous results. The first dose of Dr. Kings New Discovery gives relief. Henry D.

Why Senator Clarke Sh(u|d
 Not Be Re.E|eCtod

into office in March, 1913, on blanks
 of the Democratic platform? Neither of these letters deals with charges made against him before Mr. Wilson
 went into office and while he was
 known as one of the leading reaction
 aries of the Senate. Any other Dem-
 ocrat of the Senate, since Mir. Wilson
 election, can get the same recommen-
 dation. Let Senator Clarke explain
 to the people why he voted with the Republicans while he was not running
 for office and why he only votes with
 the Democrats when he is a candidate for reelection. The same motive
 may be found for the change of heart
 that marks the conduct of the sena-
 tor in making speeches in Arkansas
 and in sending out garden seed and farmers bulletins and agricultural re-
 ports and endless chains of pamph-
 lets to the people while candidate,
 the same people that he forgets and ignores when not running for office he wants to be reelected to the Unit ed States Senate.
 I would suggest that the senator in his recommendations get outside
 the circle of his political activity for
 reelection and that he get the recom-
 mendations of MT. Wilson and MT.
 Bryan of his conduct in voting for the
 Bristow amendment, when he lined up
 with old Hepburn, the South hater; Guggenheim, Aldrich and Elihu Root,
 the faithful servant of Uncle Trusty." Let him get the presidents recom- mendation of his amendment to li- cense and protect the gambling in cotton futures. Let him get the pre- sident and MT. Bryan to support him in saying that Oscar W. Underwood, the Democratic leader of the house, is a "trickster." Let him get the en- dorsement of either of these gentle
 men of his conduct in paying out of
 the federal treasury $10,056 to Chas. L. Watkins for staying in Little Rock and managing his Argenta street rail way. Let him get their endorsement of his conduct in paying for his boy education out of the federal treasury, while that son was attending an East ern school. Let him get their appro-
 val of his conduct in paying R. P. Al
 len $2,500 per year out of the federal treasury while Mir. Allen is on the tenth floor of the Southern Trust building in Little Rock as manager of his political campaign. Let him get the endorsement of these gentlemen of his action in assessing his Sl2O,0O0 street railway in Argenta at Sl6,250. And at last, but not least, let him get the endorsement of either of these gentlemen of his conduct in accepting
 the $30,000 fee in the states railroad
 back tax cases. which fee the railroads paid.
 It is by the senator's deeds when not running for office that ye shall
 know him.

The late Tom Johnson and Henry Fels were perhaps the most prominent disciples of Henry George. They have both passed away but this does not mean that the single taxers are passing away by any means. It is not generally known that quite a
 number of congressman and some sen ators advocate the single tax idea. A recent convention of single taxers in New York and Washington was

Not one of these charges has the sen ator ever been able to answer, nor will he ever be able to answer them to the satisfaction of true Democrat.
 His latest abortive effort at re-es- tablishing himself as a Democrat ap- pears in the form of two letters from President Woodrow Wilson and Secre- tary William Jennings Bryan. The letter from Mir. Wilson is to the eff feet that Senator Clarke has support ed the Administration since MT. Will son has been in office as president of the United States. The letter from MT. Bryan is to the same effect and adds that Senator Clarke is not an- tagnostic to him personally. Mir Bryan further states in this letter that Senator Clarke has voted with the Democrats for tariff reform and currency legislation.
 These letters, procured at the in stance of Senator Clarke, must be gratifying to the senator's friends, for they are proof positive of the fact that Senator Clarke can vote with the Democrats in the United States Senate while running for re- election in Arkansas. 1 have never charged Senator Clarke was so un mindful of his own interests while an election was pending as to vote against measures laid down in the Democratic national platform. After Senator Clarke had fought Bryan and opposed progressive Democrats in the Baltimore convention until Wilson's nomination, when to further fight would be useless, he deserted the sink ing ship of the reactionaries on which he had valiantly battled and com menced to look after his interests down in Arkansas by proclaiming him self in accord and harmony with those progressive Democrats who had shown sufficient strength to whip him and his ilk into line. Of course the senator is a democrat just before elec- ton. But, how about the game of Dr. Jekyl and MT. Hyde that the sena- tor has played during these many years when he was not a candidate for office? This is what 1 have charg- ed him with. l charge that the let ters of Mr. Wilson and Mir. Bryan bear testimony to the fact that in II years, while he has represented the people of Arkansas in the United States Senate, Senator Clarke can ac- tually support Democratic measures, only after he has been whipped into | line and while he is seeking re-elec- ton. And Senator Clarke is so proud of this fact that he takes whole pages of state newspapers with a cut of Mir. Bryan to explain to the people how he can love Mir. Bryan, whom he has abused and maligned, while he is try ing to fool the people of Arkansas to cast their votes for him,
 Another view of rnese letters is invited. Could Mir. Wilson or Mir. Bryan say less for any Democrat who had voted right since Mr. Wilson went

GERMANS PREPARED FOR WAR

Herman Ridder, editor of the New
York Stats Zeitung, the leading
German paper of the United States,
says:
Not only the army but all Ger
many is so completely organized for
this very situation that ordinary
business is carried on from day to
day with only slight Interruptions.
Naturally the factories are silent and
the wheels of commerce revolve
slowly. But there is no complete
disorganization No moratorium has
been proclaimed such as other ma
tions have resorted to. There is no
imitation of prices, for the govern
ment posts each day the price of
all foodstuffs and confiscates any
commodities offered at higher prices.
The German mind is quiet and de-
termined and absolutely logical.
American tourists who have re-
turned from abroad deny absolutely
the unfounded stories published in
the American press that Americans
were treated brutally. Lies-all
lies. 1t is very easy to exaggerate,
and l understand journalism well
enough to know that the publisher
should not be held accountable for
every item printed in his publication.
| say that more in spirit of for
giveness than in explanation.
Germany is very calm. It's crops
are being harvested by the old men,
the women and children. It's people
are of heroic mold and patient un-
der the most adverse conditions
Take it for a fact that neither at
home nor at the front does Germany
suffer the least disorganization.
1.-THE opinion of the Stats Zeit-
ung general staff is divided as to the
policy of Germany after the occupa-
tion of Belgium has become an ac-
complished fact. Some hold that the
advance on Paris will proceed with
all possible dispatch. while others,
and | include myself among the
number, believe that Germany will
content herself with holding the line
on both borders of France. To take
Paris, in my estimation, Is to at
tempt the impossible. 1t is too we'll
fortified. 1t can not be surrounded
except by 100000 men, and Ger
many can not afford such an army
to undertake siege operations that
would last a year or longer.
"The lines Of Chatalja were no
stronger than the defense of Paris.
On the other hand, Germany could
indefinitely hold the frontier against
the assaults of the French armies.

"FOOLISH TRADING"

AS producers and builders, the
American people excel all previous
civilization and we are present
day marvel in business efficiency, but
in dealing with foreign countries we
are a sorry lot of traders. Ever
since VIM. Penn traded the Indians
a handful of trinkets for what is
now the State of Pennsylvania, the
American people have been selling
their birthright to foreigners for a
mess of potage, so to speak.
We export over s50,000,000 OF
cattle and their products per annum
which feeds the nations of Europe
and our American heiresses spend a
similar sum in buying and maintain
ing counts, dukes and titled peer
ages. These foreign noblemen are
as a rule, absolutely worthless-in
fact become perpetual liability
for it costs more money to operate
and keep them in repair than it does
to run our cotton mills. European
royalty puts the black sheep of its
= families on the block and our rich
American girls buy them and we vir-
tually exchange railroads, wheat
fields and millions of dollars worth
of products of farm, mine and fac
tory for titled paupers, who could
not be resold for any sum. 1t does
not require foreign treaties, fleet
of war vessels or tariff revision to
stop this enormous loss. 1t needs
only common sense in the homes of
the rich.
We export 100000 of lumber
and timber, and American tourists
spend a similar amount in motoring
over Europe and sightseeing in for
eign lands although the most en-
chanting scenes of the world are on
the American continent.

OUR SCHOOL.

In another column Prof. H. II.
Hoffman, superintendent OF the
Heppner Schools, calls attention to
the postponement of the opening date
and gives reasons therefor. In con-
nection Herewith he also makes 9TH
er statements to which we call es-
pecial attention, and which we hear
tily endorse.
Heppner is gradually building up
a most excellent public school and
high school, and the efforts of the
school board and their corps of
teachers, toward this end should re-
ceive the unanimous support of our
citizens and the patrons. With the
splendid building provided and the
continual adding of up-to-date equip
ment. the board is keeping abreast OF
the times, and we are fast learning
that in this we are making an invest
ment, the value of which cannot be
estimated in dollars and cents, and
our splendid school is proving right
now to be the greatest force for
building up the community that we
have.
1t can be made better, and this is
to be brought about by the hearty
and earnest cooperation of our citi-
zens with the school authorities and
the teachers.
If you have a grievance, real or
fancied. against any teacher or school
officer, forget it. Line up with the
superintendent and his assistants
and let them know that you have the
best interests of our school at heart
and that you are going to do your
best to make a grand success of the
school. You can't afford to do less.
