A COUNTY

~ HERE are people in this
VI county who will be sur
prised to know that Stan
Held has two cheese factories
turning out vast quantities of
Swiss cheese each month, that
there are many hundreds of
dairy cows in that region with
more arriving each month and
that the fruitgrowers of Stan
1ield are soon to erect a $10,-
900 packing plant to care for
the handling of their fruit. The
people in the older settled por-
tons of the county are not suf-
ficiently in touch with the de-
velopmentS underway in the
new regions of the west end of
the county or with the progress
made by irrigationists in
the Milton-Freewater section.
We are too prone to regard
Umatilla county as a wheat
producing region and to belit-
tie other lines of agriculture.
A closer knowledge of the facts
will be conducive to greater re-
spect for the energetic work
that is done by new settlers in
the irrigation districts of the
county.

THE HOPE OF THE SMALL
NATION.

M HERE is ground for the
VI prediction by Judge
Gary that the allies will
be Joined rot only by south
and central American countries
but by such European nations
as Spain, Holland, Switzerland
and Scandinavia.
The prospect of an interna-
tional league to enforce world
peace is the music that will
charm these little nations into
line. Such countries would be
helpless should the world be-
come dominated by a power in
spired by the ideals that pre-
vail in Berlin. They need Just
what President Wilson hopes
for at the close of the war, an
international organization en-
forcing peace and settling dis
putes on a basis of justice,
rather than force.
1t will not be surprising if
various countries now neutral
ir the war should see the drift
of affairs and decide to unite
with the allies SO as to be in
position to ask recognition
when the great alliance for
peace is formed.

1t would take years to match this Nit
chell efficiency in another shop. 1t
would require. as it did with us, a COM
plete new factory built on efficiency de-
signs. 1t would also require a genius in
efficiency, like John w. Bate.

as applied to a motor car. 1t offers more

than any other high-grade car. 1t offers
such strength, such endurance as few

1t is the car for a man who buys a car

one in twenty of the men o.

to the colorS, whereas all who
have to do with food are ex.
pected to cooperate in the
prosecution of the war. To be
able to deal with such as may
refuse or resist, he asks of con
gress extraordinary powers.
Heretofore it has been the
habit of the United States to
raise armies by the volunteer
system, leaving all persons not
thus enrolled free to do as they
pleased-too often, it must be
said, to take advantage of the
situation for personal gain. Mr.
Wilson now assumes that the
American people have vOlun-
teered in mass and that the
duty devOlving upon govern
ment is not alone the creation
of a great army, but by selec-
tive methods. the organization
of the whole nation, in some
capacity. for war.
In naming Herbert C. Hoo
yer as food administrator the
President gives the country an
excellent illustration of his
meaning. Mr.. Hoover ana
most of his assistants are to
serve without pay. They take
it for granted that the great
commercial associations, long
accustomed to the ethics only
Of the market place, will vol
unfairly subordinate private to
public interests. They hope
by regulation and administra-
ton to increase supplies, to
hold speculation in check, to
facilitate distribution, to pre-
vent boarding and to maintain
reasonable prices. They are
to be counsellors and not dicta-
tors, except as a last resort
They must have law behind
them but the law will be useo
only against the incorrigible.
Prompt recognition in every
element of the population of
this splendid vision Of a demo-
cracy at war without expecta-
ton of Individual profit will
soon find a nation rather than
an army in training-in train
for valorous deeds by land
and by sea, of course, but in
training also for modest use
fulness, for self-forgetfulness,
for economy, and. above every
else, for public service.
Our people have always pre-
scented many noble examples
Of these virtues, but never UNI
til today has every element of
tire population been hidden by
the highest authority to make

notion of human rights and

mercial, to the military needs

and generous that
there is reason to hope the food
interests, vast as they are, will
be equally patriotic. In this
manner a republic may show

Give You 2O% Extra Value

The Bate efficiency methods save US
20 per cent under what a like car would
cost anywhere else-in the best-equip-
ped factory we know. All of that saw
ing goes to our buyers, in full 20 per cent
extra value.
That is what pays for the 100 per cent
over-strength That is what pays for our
81 extra features. And that is what en-
ables our unmatchable price on a car OF
the Mitchell grade.
This year a new saving, due to our
own body building, adds "a per cen to
the cost of finish and upholstery.
These things are impossible without
factory efficiency, carried to a far ex-
IRENE. And Mitchell is the only high
grade car built under these conditions.

Turkeys Part in the War.

Turkey makes an unwonted venture
into the field of literary polemics in its
note in which it declares, according to
the abstract prepared in Berlin, that ''the
central powers, especially Turkey, not
desiring entente territory, had no rea-
son to begin the war" The word Cen
tente" is delicate touch, for Bulgaria
only two years ago before the war took
part in raid on Turkish territory. As
for Turkey, however, it may fairly be
exonerated from any design of conquest
in taking part in the war; it's days of
conquest were over long ago, and to keep
its own is the utmost to which it as
pires In some respects, the Turks are
entitled to much sympathy; they have
as race some fine traits and they have
been very badly used by the great pow
ers of Europe. In the war they have
disproved the charge of their degeneracy
and have shown themselves not only
brave but chivalrous warriors. II it were
not for the savagery shown toward sub
ject nations, Turkey would merit only
for its sufferings in a
war which it neither desired nor began.
And even if the time has come to con-
slider the release of subject peoples from
Mosem rule, it must be said that the
greed of its enemies for the choicest parts
Of its empire is not lovely spectacle

Lincoln Would Never Have Passed an
Efficiency Test.

There is an editorial in the February
issue of the Woman's Home Companion
in which the writer says:
eve shudder to think what the verdict
of the efficiency experts would be upon
Lincoln. Why, the man had no sense OF
money at all!---and to get the money is
of course, the chief purpose and end of
efficiency.
''He had worked hard for an average
lifetime before he was elected to the
presidency. Yet at his Inauguration his
entire fortune consisted of his house and
lot in Springfield. and little wild land
in Iowa. granted to him for his services
in the Black Hawk war. A few years
later he is reported to have said: i now
have about ten thousand dollars. / hope
before ] die to increase it to twenty
thousand dollars, which is all the money
any one man ought TO want
He seems actually to have had the
idea that money is merely incidental to
the business of living, not nearly so i'm
portant as friendship, or a sense of hui
NOR, or a clear conscience. He assumed
that after a man had enough to pay his
debts, and attain reasonable degree of
it was useless. and even a
trihe absurd, for him to seek TO pile up
a great fortune A more hopelessly in
efficient point of view. of course, could
hardly be imagined"
