Since It came into existence the LOCAL
club has been active In securing much
road Improvement In the nearby coun-
try; has sign-posted many roads for
cral new automobile road maps of the
country contiguous to the National Cap
itaI; has supplied local motorists with
motoring information of every descrip-
ton; and has succeeded In getting a
fund started with which to secure a
good. direct highway between this city
| and Richmond To the latter the club
made q generous cash contribution.
Local and visiting motorists. whether
members OF the club or not, have been
welcomed to club headquarters and
supplied free of charge with touring
informa tion--often maps. Some OF these
have since Joined the club. while others
merely expressed their appreciation OF

object. So far as We are individually
concerned 1t matters not if the grand
old peak bears the name of Rainier,
Tacoma, Seattle, Olympia, Oroville or
any other name, although we might
have preference for the last name
mentioned. A change in the name could
not lesson one iOta the beauty of that
majestic mountain, nor detract from
it as one of the great natural scenic
attractions of the state of which every
resident of Washington is proud,
whether he lives in Pierce county or
Spokane, Whatcom or Asotin, Okla
hogan or Pacific. Yet it seems a late
day to go back on an old and firmly
established name, whether or not it
was appropriately clristened original
ly. We have lived for upward of 33
years in the state and have never
heard the mountain spoken of other
wise than Mount R.inier outside of
the city of Tacoma, and that was the
name the mountain was known by for
years before the dctc of our advent in
Washington. 1t would seem difficult
undertaking to popularize any new
name after the lapse of SO many years
and even If the name was changed on
the map it would be generations before
the old familiar Rainier would be en-
ltirely discarded. According to the
What's Doing" the Indians claim that
before the coming of the white man
and the affixing of the name of Rainier
to the mountain the big peak was
known by the cboriginics as Tacobet
If change is thought to be impera-
tive at this time why not fall back
on the Indian nomenclature and pc
tition to have the name revert to the
one given it by the red men, Tacobct
and let her go at that. We would moi
throw straw in the way of the am.
bilious undertaking of What's Doing,
but really feel that it would be diff.
cult to induce the public as a whole
to accept change of any kind this
late in the history of the state.

fortunes builded up by the operators of
these small merchant strangers. This
paper has always protested against
patronlZlng these houses, because 1t
believes in supporting home institu-
tons. When we are hard up the home
merchant is generally willing to carry
us over the stringent period. No mail
order house Will ever trust the buyer
for goods delivered. 1t is spot lash or
no response. If misfortune comes to a
citizen the merchant is always the
most liberal responder to the appeal
for charity. Charity never loosened the
purse strings of mail order house. If
any public enterprise is set on foot the
local merchant is the first to contribute
literally. No mail order firm will come
over with cent for such 4 purpose.
And SO it goes all along the line, the
| local merchant standing by his town
and people; the mail order house TAX
| ing all it can get and giving nothing
in return. We have been called down
frequently by patrons of mail order
houses for defending and supporting
the home dealer. We take the call
meekly and patiently, but that does not
change our views on the subject 1t is
any mans privilege to buy where he
|pleases and sell where he pleases. That
is not questioned 1t is safe bet how
ever, that there are people who send
cash away for articles that can be
purchased at home, when at the same
time they are carried as creditors on
the books of the local merchant, and
that is neither fair, just nor honorable.
! By-the-Way, as we are on this sub
]ect OF home buying it may be added
that while this paper has been oppos-
ing mail order houses and preaching
support to home institutions there have
been cases where the home merchants
and dealers have had printing done by
outside printing establishments. They
may have secured the work at trifle
less cost, but from the samples we
have seen they got mighty poor lob
and inferior stock, such work as q
country office with facilities for doing
JoD work would never turn out. We
DelleVe the Gazette is entitled to all
the small amount of printing there is
to be done in town of this size. Ex-
ceptlng for stock used every dollar
taken in by this office is kept in circu.
latlon at home, and for that substantial
reason, II not for the sentimental
reason that this paper works all the
time for the interests and the upbuild-
ing OF the town, it is felt that whatever
work there is in the printing limo
should be turned into the local print
cry.

1t is about time the hyphen was dis
carded in this country as disting
uishing the nativity of certain Amer
lean citizens. There is no place here
for the Irish-American, the British
American, the French-American, the
German-American or an American of
any kind otherwise than the out and
out straight and true American. No
man can serve two countries and the
foreign born resident who Is not will
ing to become thoroughly American,
and stand by his adopted country I'M
der all circumstances, should return
to the country of his nativity, volun-
tarily If he will, forceably if necessary.
Since the breaking out of the European
war an element of discord has devel-
oped in this country, led and influ-
enced by foreign horn naturalized cit
liens. They abuse the privilege of free
speech and free prccs by utterances
that are as reasonable as those for
which copperheads were responsible
during the civil war. They are indeed
the coppcrhead of The present day. If
an American living in foreign coun-
try should under similar circumstances
attack that country as foreigners ere
attacking tho present administration
he would be ruthlessly and instantly
cast into prison, and be fortunate If he
escaped summary execution. Every
foreigner coming to this country tc
make his homo comes for the purpose
of lettering his condition, and hardly
one, out of the vast number, has failed
to find that material bettermcnt. Many
left Europe to escape the very mill
tarism that thye are now praising and
upholding. When ey came here and
surrendered allegiance to king, prince
or potontate, they took upon them
selves the solemn obligations ant
duties of citizenship, and the para
mount duty If citizenship is loyalty tc
the country of adoption. This does moi
apply to any ono class of foreign born
citizens, but to all naturalized citizens
no matter from wkct country they
may hail Let the hyphcn go into The
discard, and let every man, native OF
foreign born, stand rue to tie flag and
the country tlct flag represents. II
he cannot do this, let him return al
once to the country that he feels has
a stronger claim to his allegiance.

During the past week a large con-

great monopolies, that are supported
chiefly by those who shrek the loudest

dividends to the owners and operators
every year. There is no corner of the

tentacles Of the mail order houses, and
