Threatens to ConsClpt Sugar Crop

Tho United States is threatened
with a sugar famine. She has per-
mitted so large part of the American
sugar crop to be sent to her allies that
just now. before our own new crop
becomes available there is real short
age. The Cuban crop is already
harvested and ready for the market,
but the planters are holding it back
with the evident purpose of bulling
the market and getting higher price.
In this situation the president of Cuba,
Senior Monocal has served notice on
the sugar planters that unless they
market their sugar at the prevailing
price, so the United States can have
sugar. he'will take possession OF it in
the name of the state and relieve the
shortage,

Hoover Lays Blame on Jobber and
Retailer

Food Administrator Hoover is out in
statement that the retailers and job
bers are in most instances responsible
for the high price of food stuffs. The
manufacturers have been found much
more amenable to the administrations
effort to hold down the cost OF living
than the retailer. AS an instance he
points out that sugar is now furnished
to the trade at price that will permit
the retailer to sell it to the consumer
at 8 to 81 cents per pound, and yet
in many instances, he says the con-
sumner is paying II cents, and even
more than that. Either the retailer or
the jobber is reaping an unholy profit

OUGHT | to Buy A Liberty Bond!

Answer these questions and then ii
you can say Mol your patriotism is a
hollow sham.
Was I in favor OF the United States
going to war to make the world safe
for government by the people7
Did my son or my neighbours son
join the ranks to go to France2
Ought the United States supply our
soldiers on the fireing line with food,
clothing, guns and amunitions1
Must the government have money to
pay for these things2
Must the government rely on its own
citizens to supply the necessary funds1
II the American boys are killed be-
cause OF lack Of funds to supply them
with food, clothing, guns and ammunition,
am and others who refuse to buy
bonds responsible for their death1
If the war is lost and Germany does
to the people Of the United States
what she did to the Belgian people
will l share in the blame?
The whole world now realizes that
the only wav to beat the Germans back
is for the United States to exert her
tremendous power.
In the face of all these undeniable
facts can I fail in my duty?
These questions are addressed to all
those who would rather live under the
stars and stripes than the Prussian
eagle-who still believe the govern
ment and laws OF the United States are
superior to the government and laws
OF Germany II you can answer all
the questions in the affirmative you
should make your faith and loyalty
evident by buying liberty bond.
Every American citizen is as much in
the trenches as are the boys in France.
They are in the supporting trenchers
and must feed and clothe those in the
firing trenches if we expect to win.
Every American citizen who can and
will not buy bonds is morally re-
sponsible for aiding the enemies.

Movement to kpeI UnIOyal Senators
and COngreSSmen Growing

She citizens OF every one of the 48
states are writing to their Senators
urging them to expel Senator La
Toilette OF Wisconsin, for disloyalty.
Many of these letters strenously insist
that Gronna, OF North Dakota, Stone
Of Missouri, Vardaman of Mississippi
and Hardwick OF Georgia be expelled
also.
All OF these Senators have made
speeches, in the Senate, which were
printed and widely circulated in Ger
many for the encouragement of Ger
many. II that is not giving aid and
comfort to our enemies, we would
like to know why.
Mr.. Roosevelt says we should not
only expel LaFollette, but we should
send him to Germany, whom he
represents in the United States Senate.
If the Senate allows such men to
hold their seats after making treason
able speeches, the public will loose
respect for our august Legislative body.
Congressman Norton of North Dakota,
and Manson OF Illinois are alleged to
be in the same class as LaFollette.

The United States Government has
turned to the Pacific Northwest for re-
cruits for the aviation service. Any
young men in the state who have an
inclination to serve Uncle Sam in the
air can get trial if they come up to
requirements. Airplane flyers must be
between 10 and 80 years of age, but
for the balloon service they may be as
old as thirty-fve; in fact Uncle Sam
prefers the older men for the task OF
handling balloons. Capt. George L.
Jones, president OF the examining
board for aviators for the Seattle district,
has opened an Office in this city and
is ready to talk to applicants. He
says they must have references, as
only first-class young men are wanted.
incidentally he calls attention to the
fact that Uncle Sam will pay his aviators
500 month while they are learning
TO fly and in addition they will be
given a subsistence allowance.

The dispenser OF weather, who ever
he is, has our unstinted praise. Since
the twentieth OF August we have re-
veled in the most glorious sunshine
and air that mortal man ever ex-
perienced. 1t has not been hot, just
warm enough, and the nights delight
fully cool and refreshing. No wind
storm and scarcely cloudy day. Life
has been one continuous round OF
pleasure. The only change we can
observe is that the days are getting a
bit shorter and the nights little
cooler as the days pass. The man
with clear conscience and sound
health has had a foretaste of what
heaven may be supposed to be. The
one regret is that it can not last much
longer.

English language in the Making

A city man cecently visited his
country cousin. The man from the
city, wishing TO explain the joys oil
urban life, said: We certainly have
been having the fun the last few days.
Thursday we autoed to the country
club and golfed until dark, then
trolleyed back to town and danced
until morning"
The country cousin was not to be
stumped in the least and began telling
some OF the pleasures Of the simple
life: I'VE have had pretty good
times here, too. One day we buggied
out to Uncle Ned's and went out to
the back lot where we baseballed all
afternoon. In the evening we sneaked
up into the attic and pokered until
morning"
A sturdy old farmer, who was listen
ing not to be outdone, took up the
conversation at this point and said. l
was having some fun about that time
myself. muled out to the cornfield
and geehawed until shutdown. Then
I suppered until dark and piped until
nine o'clock, after which bedsteaded
until the clock fived, and then l break
tasted until it was time to go muling

Food Commissioner Hoover calls the
country's attention to the fact that the
Government is going just as far as il
possibly can to bring down food prices
and declares that from now on we must
watch the middleman and the retailer
to see that they do not tack on ex-
cessive profits to their wares. 1t is
undoubtedly true that in Seattle many
retailers and jobpers have taken
advantage to boost prices Of food stuffs
far beyond the reasonable point, 1t has
been found by a comparison OF prices
with other cities in the State that
Seattle is paying far more for her food
supplies than is warranted by the
manufacturers prices, and it is due to
the fact that the middlemen and retailers
are demanding excessive profits. Com
missioner Hoover says that under the
present law Uncle Sam has no way o.
reaching these people, but they can be
punished by the public by refusing tc
patronize them.

Increased Cost of Growing and Packing

A humber OF apple pickers who
were being paid $3.50 per day in the
vicinity OF Peshastn struck Tuesday
morning for $500 per day. Few if
any of the ranchers granted the
demand. 1t is true apples are selling
for higher price this year than last,
but the cost Of everything that enters
into the growing Of apples has also
risen in price. Boxes are double in
price, wrapping paper is twice as high,
labels are higher, wages are already
twice as high as last year, so that it is
quite possible that the grower will not
get greater net returns this year than
last.

When the kaiser told Gerard that
he would stand no nonsense from
America after the war" he was perhaps
looking forward to forming a partner
ship with LaFollette.

your eye on, ever since you discarded

Governor Lister told the convention
of Women's Christian Temperance
Union held in Seattle recently that the
State Of Washington has found that the
dry law was a good investment and
that the state will never return to the
wet column. Zone thing we love
about the state of Washington" said
Governor Lister, is that its people are
not afraid to take the lead in establish
ing reforms. Washington was one Of the
first states to give women the ballot;
then it adopted the prohibition law. -
Governor Lister said that our dry law
undoubtedly cut big influence when
it came to inducing the Government to
establish the great army post at Camp
Lewis. The fact that we don't have
saloons in Washington" said the Gov
ernor, means much now that we are
building up an army and the boys viii
have better health and do better fight
ing had they been able at this critical
time to obtain liquor"

Will Move C0IOred Troops

The draft movement, which is to
take place from October 81 to 81. will
consist entirely Of colored troops. says
an announcement from the Western
Department headquarters OF the Rail-
roads War Board at IS Market street,
San Francisco.
c. j. Mcdonald, assistant to Chair
man Williams Sproule, says the total
number Of colored troops to be moved
is about $4,000. OF this number,
Camp Lewis quota in only four
hundred, or less than one percent OF
the 46, 100 troops raised in the Western
Department.
The plans Of the War Department
call for organizing the National Army
of 100000 into sixteen divisions OF
white troops and one OF colored troops.
Instead of concentrating all the
colored men in the few environments OF
the Southern States, the policy OF the
War Department, it is said, will be to
distribute them more or less evenly
throughout the sixteen National Army
cantonments.
No definite date has yet been set
for the moving OF the balance of the
National army, amounting to fifteen
percent, less the colored contingent.

Rev. Dyer is saying some pretty
naughty things about Pastor Rus

Paul Haffer was sent to Jail for
saying George Washington was a

Remember, 1t makes no differ
ence whether the statement is
true or false; the only ques-

is dead or alive, and Russell sure
ly is dead. He doesn't even live
in the spiritual form, according
to his own doctrine.
In other words he is as dead

County Bridge
EDITOR THE TINES:

EDITOR THE TINES:
"A thing of beauty is joy for
ever" must have been in the
minds of the county commission
ers when they planned the bridge
across the river at McKenna,
which is about finished now.
l suppose when the road is
connected up to the bridge some
people will cross over it without
know it is a bridge, which is the
way all bridges should be.
But to see the beauty of it you
should get a boat and go out on
the water.
1t certainly is a credit to every
one that had anything to do with
1t.
But road is no better than the
worst place in it, and there are
roads in this county that have
been used for over 80 years that
are not graded yet.
Now if these roads cannot be
graded, some of the bumps could
be cut down and some of the
holes filled up, which would help
some. The money the taxpayer
pays is often hard to get, but
poor roads and bridges won't
bring people here to live and
, make homes, which is what
counts.
