~ELIX, the Roman governor Of

no jurors. Tertullus made his charges
and confirmed them by witnesses from

Shrewdly the Roman lawyer compli-

It is often said that nobody wants That is all bosh. For instance; President Wilson wants war since he is advocating the manufacture of the very instruments with which to wage war; and he has many followers So, the fallacy of his con tention that he does not war is shown
 The socialists--the great peace advocates? Like wise the labor unions the church people all the world should they desire be consistent they would soon stop the wal, and all they would have to do would be to compel their respective governments to stop the manufacture of implements How simple it is when you to think about 1t!

THE WRONG WAY ABOUT

Come to think seriously of the matter, We conc to the conclusion that President Wilson IS barking up the wrong He wants to get at the very heart or root of the trouble to remedy the cause of human i'll through the wrong process. But it can never do your uleerated tooth any good to gouge out your in-growing toe nail Not the least bit Pull out the tooth and you pull out the trouble Just the same with the liquor traffic. Stop the manufacture of liquor and you stop drunk eness And we may go step further and add; stop the manufacture of arms and anmunitions and you stop the
 President Wilson is about the country preaching preparedness to prevent wars; and when he is done along this Ine the chances are that he will return 10 Washington and delivering long lectures in favor statewide prohibition, which means nothing more nor less than stopping the manufacture Of H. Quors thus removing the very root of the evil of drunkenness. Then why be consistent and stop the manufacture oi arms and ammuntions for the fighting nations and let the other neutrals dc the same and see how the will stop.
 It seems to Is that should the advocates of re- form in the houor traffic turn their attention to this very il and use as much energy to prevent it as they do to prevent drunkeness, they would vince the president that it is his duty to persuade congress to stop the manufacture of weapons of war; they would do more to humanity than they do in breaking their necks il an endcavor to
 few sots from perdition through the liquors After alt what do a few drunken amount to com nare with the millions of children, and old men suffering through the manufacture Of impie nnents or war Those children, if allowed to live, will grow sour at the world and will continue in their ancestors footsteps, and that is, warning against ore another.

WHAT SHIPPING NEEDS
tPhiladelphia Ledgerl


 All that the American shipbuilder asks at this time is protection from foolish legislation Upon him. as on the shipowncr government interference weighs heavily. The present scarcity has created an unprecedented demand for tonnage No com petition by the foreign builder, concerning which the politicians have been Sc anxious in the past need now be feared. All the world the ship yards are working to full capacity. The to the American shipbuder is that such prosperity cannot last under existing laws When the immediate de mand Is over We are certain to have idle yards unless the shpowner is permitted to do profitable business in normal conditions. This seamen's act alone would make that impossible. Add to that the threat of government ownership. and private cap ita will be forced to find some safer and pro- fitable investment The advocates of the ship pur- chase bill who talk of building up tho American mer- chant marine by provisions in effect urging its destruction.

Jim Derrick and son were
guests at Geo. Hodges several
days last week.
! The roads along Big Blk are
being put in excellent shape for
the season.
We note lots of fishermen
inow-a-days but no fish, due to
those wonderful racks that are
kept across the stream and STOP
ping the fish from spawning
above them. Those racks have
hindered the trout as well as the
salmon till they are almost a
thing of the past.
Jim Hodges is wearing a mule
foot smile of late.
The people of Big Elk had a
picnic at the mouth of Deer
Creek last Sunday and decided
to have a fair at Harlan this fall.
We note u. M. Derrick and
son among the crowd and also
Mr.. Damon of Eddyville.
There were 1877 people pres
ent, among which were several
grangers; it seems to be the
sentiment of the people to CO.
operate with the Elk City
Grange which is a step in the
right dii ection. Get together,
pull together is the right motto.
The Elk City Grange met
last Saturday, the 3rd, and de-
cided to buy two water front lots
to build on. There were only 81
members present but they raised
over 800 to purchase the build
ing site. This money was raised
by donation by the members.
Elk City is the most beautiful
little town in the county and
will have the same kind of a
grange hall in the near future.
If you live near a grange join
1t for 1t is the only cooperative
secret organization in the world
that is working for the farmers
OF your community. Try It.
Lay all your personal feelings
aside and be sociable. II is best
for ourselves because il helps
the community. We should re-
member the old motto: What
ever is good for the nelghbor is
good for u.s..
The Big Elkers are going to
celebrate the 4th of July all to-
gether this year. We will send
particulars later.

(R.verside Special)-One of the

in this community was held on
Big Elk at the mouth of Deer
Creek last Sunday. Fully two
hundred people enjoyed them

the forenoon in which young
and old took part. Dinner was

every body did justice to it.
After dinner the Fair" was
discussed and the majority of
the people concluded to join the
Elk City grange. Thomas
Thompson of Harlan and ]. A.
Hodges of Salado acting as
spokesmen for the crowd and
voiced their opinions perfectly.
Heretofore Big Elk has not done
much in the way of exhibiting
their products but from now on
they mean to be recognized as
an agricultural section of Ore
gon.

BUTTERMILK CAMP NO. 1 =

This is a new country to be
heard from-maybe last but not
least-as a visit to the Camp and

There is a number of teams now
at work On a big fill just north

bridge and fill is fifteen feet high
Mr.. Elting is always on the lob
and is doing all that can be done
10 rush things there. Tho the
weather conditions have been
most unfavorable the powder
men are doing splendid work
as one can see by a trip over
the right of way, by the great
stumps blown out. In usi.Ag a
ton and one half of powder there
mas been only two unsuccessful
shots. The County officials may
feel gratifled in securing such
competent men which are at the
head of this work.
Mr.. Elting made this state
ment IN the presence of the
writer: THAT if the people who
are complaining about us build
ing too vide road, when they
come to work, would think about
results instead of time, Lincoln
County could have wide roads
instead of trails.

The possession of property is not
