A WISE DECISION.

There is no disputing the general assertion that
we are not doing our road-building right and are
wasting lots of money every year, but there is
grave question whether the present wartime is
the time to undertake any comprehensive scheme
of construction involving the expenditure of any
where from half million to million dollars
So when the trustees Of the Chamber of Com
merce the other day decided that war demands
come first, they took what believe to have been
wise and fully justiiable position.
Thurston county subscribed more than two
hundred and seventeen thousand dollars to the
First Liberty Loan some twenty-seven thousand
dollars to the first Red Cross campaign, and has
just finished buying nearly four hundred and five
thousand dollars worth of bonds of the Second
Liberty Loan. This it has done in the past six
months in addition to many miscellaneous gifts
aggregating several thousand dollars, and it will
undoubtedly be called upon to do as much more,
at least, during the next six months That is its
first, its chief and its immediate duty. Other
things can wait.

What do You think of farmer who accepts the
largess of the government through loan on his
farm from the federal farm loan bank at Spokane
and yet who refuses to give his personal moral
support to the government during this it's great
est crisis, or to buy Liberty Bond or contribute
to the Red Crosse We have few like that in this
county, and some of them are going to sell milk
and produce to Camp Lewis. They are taking all
they can get from the government under which
they live, but they aren't giving anything to it,
Is that shooting square!

District Men Protest.
D. u. Jones, of Washington, D. c.,
wrote to the Vice President:
Il wish to enter my protest against
the utteTanCes of Senator La Toilette
in st. Paul, Mimi. as coming danger
OUsly near treason. I enclose extract
from speech as given in Washington
Star of this date. 1 ask that the at
tcntiOn of the Senate be called to
the remarks, if in your judgement it
is right and proper to do so. This is
a time to help the government, not to
obstTuct."
Another Washington man, w. A.
CCOmbs, wrote:
AS a citizen of the United States,
I most strongly urge the expulsion of
RoLert NJ. La Toilette from your
august body, upon the grounds of
seGitiOus and reasonable utterances
in a speech recently made by him."
e. W. Cannon, Of No. 35 Clare
mont avenue, New York City, n. Y,
tclegraphed:
Il have son now in the aviation
corps in France fighting for his coun-
try, flag. and world freedom. As a
good American citizen, 1 ask for the
Impeachment of La Toilette. After
his seditious speech of yesterday, he
is not a fit man to represent US in
our Senate. When our sons are CIV
ing up their lives for the cause OF
their country, should they be COM
PEELED to listen to such traitors in
our midst?"
Impeachment of Senator La Toilette
would come through action of the
Privileges and Elections Committee.
II could recommend impeachment. II
would then be necessary for the Sem
ate to vote on the question. and a
twO-thirds' vote of the entire men,
bership would be required to oust La
Toilette from his seat.
