The council refused to be
frightened by the threat, and re-
fused to take action. The wheel
company wants roadway be-
tween Fletcher and Madison

city to pay all costs. The strip
would cost only 500.

Now when on No. s, 1916, the

Were 1t not for the kaiser, the
grim war would never have hap

Also on Friday, about p. M,

to my brother at Taholah. 1t was
delivered to his p. o. box there
Monday evening, completely
spoiled, after having plenty OF
time to be put on the Moclips
train so as to reach Taholah Sat
urday afternoon. / am wonder
ing what safe the Tacoma post
office put it in.
Again q couple of years ago,
mailed a box of fresh violets early
In February to an old soldier in
Wisconsin. About the goth OF
March found they had been sem
to my return address at the Fern
Hill p. o.. never having left the
city at all. The result of this
was heated argument with the
postmaster and Mr.. Backus,

hands, and out Sc cents to me II

Soldiers Morals
EDITOR THE TIMES:

If | may be granted a little
space in your most highly esteem
ed paper, l would like to say a
word to the one signing himself
plain Talk"
Now l think his ideas as ex-
pressed are very good, very sensi-
BILE, etc. But-why take the little
slap at our soldiers?
Since l have had the pleasure
of meeting roamers in and out of
society and spent one entire en-
listment in the army, l feel that
am capable of making a COMPARE
son and reaching a fair average.
1t is Just this, If plain Talk" or
anyone else has good girls, they
are not going to suffer any more
from the army post locating here
than they will from their natural
inclinations and surroundings.
Some of the most appreciative,
most gentlemanly fellows I ever
met have worn the uniform of the
good old U. s. A. I'm sure IL
some of our army post alarmist
would get out, away from their
little plantation, and meet some
of the real men of the army and
not Judge them all by the few
ungentlemanly ones they see on
the street, they would change
their minds about the soldier.
I'm sure there isn't any man
more appreciative of a good wom-
an than a good, manly soldier, and
they are in the majority, over
whelmingly. Put up your hammers
and give the boys the credit due
all good men. Yours for fairness,

War has been the cry for some
time, but what has the United
States to go to war about unless
to kill off our able bodied men
and fill the pockets of a lot of
men like John D., Morgan and
Vanderbilt. They are the ones
that make the money out of this
war, and what do they care for
the common people?
II you own a pond, and 60 out
on thin ice and get drowned, who
is to blame but myself? That is
the way is is on taking passage on
foreign ships.
If the United States would put
stop to all shipments from this
country, she wouldn't have hunger
riots, and the high prices that we
are paying to live.
In regards to the lumberman's
association wanting to back Presi'
dent Wilson, why yes, they do II
for they can sell their lumber to
the U. S. instead of losing 1t al
sea as they do now.

Be An American

EDITOR THE TINES:
Say you men from foreign coun-
tries,
want to say to you,
That we don't give a darn old hat.
whether you were a Dutchman
or a Jew
But when you come to America,
TO make your home for good,
Just take out your papers,
AS a lover of freedom should.
Don't continue to be an outsider,
But be an American right,
Take Old Glory for your banner,
And for her be ready to fight.
Don't think that you are not well
come,
That you are not wanted in this
land,
Just become a full-fledged Ameri-
can,
And we will give you a brothers
hand.
But to insist on being a stranger.
Is the thing that we don't like.
If the old homes better than the
new,
Then back you'd better hike;
If ever move to Sweden,
Just take this from me,
l will learn to talk their lingo,
And an Oily I will be.
