The Soldier Celebration

washington Times-Hand County
did herself proud in the send off she
gave her soldier boys last Tuesday.
Just how many people gathered at
Miller that day is purely a matter of
conjecture, estimated all the way from
three to ten thousand. EVERYBODY adj
mits that it was the biggest crowd
that ever congregated in Miller. The
program was carried out about as
published. All of the soldiers boys
were given the best to be had. The
veterans of 1861 and the young men
of 1917 all sat down to dinner togeth-
err, taking every available place at the
tables which had been prepared for
them. The program in the afternoon
following the spectacular parade, was
fine. Judge McNulty's speach was one
well worth hearing and tending to stir
the patriotic spirit in every true
American heart. The most of the boys
who have been called to serve their
country must certainly feel better
after hearing such an address. The
first four from among the boys of
Hand County left the following morn
ing for Fort Riley, Kansas. Others
are expecting to leave on the 10Th of
this month, and still others on the 3rd
of October.

COMMUNITY

The patriotic celebration for the
soldier boys of Hand county Is said
to have been one of the largest and
most successful gatherings ever held
in the county. II is proper to COM
plete the record OF this very laudable
community enterprise by acknowledg-
ing that 1t was made possible by the
united efforts Of a local organization
that Is always ready to lend its
strength and force to any enterprise
worthy of community endorsement.
The Miller Cimmercial Club was the
organized force behind this and many
other local enterprises OF the past.
II is an organization OF business men
and citizens who may be quickly call
ed together, and who are willing to
give both their time and their means
to forward public affairs OF their home
town and county az often Dis they can
Without hope OF any other reward than
the satisfaction 81 doIns their duty a.

JAPAN SEES THE LIGHT

In discussing the differences be-
tween the two imperialisms of Britain
and German, the Minneapolis Journal
makes the important point that ''even
IL there were no altruistic induce
ment, no honorable necessity, for our
entering the war. a shrewd policy
would compel us to do So" and thus
illustrates:
Already we have tangible demon
stration of the wisdom OF our course
The attitude OF Japan toward US, to-
ward her Allies. toward Germany,
has changed overnight. Her spokes-
men now declare that Japan's future
is cast with the two great English
speaking nations. Her statesmen no
longer watchfully wait to see to which
side the cat is going to jump; they nc
longer contemplate the possibility OF
an alliance with Germany, after this
a They definitely range their
country with Great Britain, the Unit.

ECONOMY FIGURES

Bowdle Pioneer-We have noted in
the dalies where economy is being
preached to the public, that saving a
slice of bread a day will conserve mill
lions OF bushels OF wheat, that by inn
mediately stopping your auto engine
when you come to the halt, American
auto wne will save enough gas to
run 10000 airplanes all day. All this
interesting information has caused
our mathematical editor to do some
calculating. We estimate that II each
user OF soap will give the cake two
rubs less than usual, sufficient soap
can be saved to give the entire |. w.
w. organization a weekly bath. We
also calculate that the air wasted In
discussing the possible date of the
end of the war would, IL compressed,
run 40 submarines to Halifax.

Much to the surprise of many people
the bone dry law of South Dakota is
a practical success. OF course there
is some liquor used, and perhaps al
ways will be as long as it is manu-
featured. in a quiet and private way.
But 50 far as the public is concerned
South Dakota is dry now some sixty
odd days after the law became opera
tive. And as time passes even the
private use of liquor will be reduced
to a very small amount, because COM
paratively few men will go out of their
way very much to replenish any sup
ply laid in before the first of July.

STATEWIDE PROSPERITY

South Dakota is now enjoying the
greatest prosperity in all localities
hat has ever occurred at one and the
same time. The state immigration
department reports the production of
new wealth for the present year will
be " a half billion in dollars, which
means nearly $1,000 for each individ-
ual in the state.
1t is perhaps true that this record
exceeds that of any other state in the
Union, according to population. This
Is not a "happenstance" of n year,
either, because 1t has regularly oc-
cured now for twelve years. When
the children and non-producers are
taken out of this per capita division,
what a really profitable sum would be
left for each producing individual!
Then along the bank reports
to show an increase of q per cent in
deposits for the fiscal year ending
June, 1917. over the fiscal year ending
June. 1916.
With these facts easily susceptible
OF proof, the marvel is that people OF
other states do not rush in here to
buy up the vacant lands and put them
to producing just what the present
population Is producing. What is the
cause? Thousands Of acres of good
farm lands await the developer, to be
had at remarkably low prices COM
pared with the lands Of almost any
other state; the climate is as good as
that of any northwestern state: the
civilization exceeds that of many
states. and is excelled by few II any;
there is no agricultural state where
business is better, or opportunity
greater.
Perhaps we are just impatient to
accomplish in a generation or two
what 1t has taken other states several
generations to accomplish. But the
wonder remains that inhabitants o.
other states who are continually look.
ing for new locations with opportun.
ity do not more freely grasp at the
chances to be found In almost any 10.
cality of this state. and particular,
SO in the rather moderately settled
central counties OF the state.

MAIL CLERK ECONOMY
CUTS DOWN EFFICIENCY
Number of "Stuck" Mail Pouches Is
Continually Growing.-Walla
Walla Feels the Effect.
(Walla Walla UnionD

(Walla Walla UnionD
Orders have been recently issued
by the postoffice department which
will result in another delay for trans
continental mail addressed to points
on the Pacific coast. In the present
instance this mail will be delayed
five hours and forty minutes and will
include all special delivery letters.
The order is directed against the
Chicago and Omaha R. p. O., an i'm
portant transcontinental mail link.
The mail on this train in the future
is to be worked in the Union termin-
al R. P. O., in Chicago instead of be-
ing worked on the train and is sched-
uled to be dispatched in pouches be-
tween five and six hours after it is
dumpted into the terminal referred
to.
The only reason given for this or
der is that it is being done for the
purpose Of running the mail service
on business-like basis.
Stuck" mail, that is that mail
that railway clerks have been unable
to work in transi t because of con-
gestion or an insufficient number OF
clerks seems to have been the rule
rather than the exception on all mail
going out Of Spokane for the 40 days
from December Sth through January
18th. This mail was directed to
Harve, Seattle, Lewiston, Miles City,
Portland and intermediate points.
Under the present policy for
economy" In the postofiice depart.
ment. all idea of efficiency has been
lost sight of. Mail clerks on all
branch lines are being dropped foom
day to day. Fortunately, Heppner
has been one of the last to be affect
ed through this stringent economy
crusuade, but even at that, the hun
dreds Of patrons on the route here
are not giving up what belongs to
them, without first making vigor-
GUS protest.
Postmaster Richardson points out
that people living in Heppner, who
now get their mail within few min
utes after its arrival in the evening
would not, in the event of the mail
clerks removal, get a portion Of
their mail until the next day. Fur
ther down the line, some of 1t would
be from twelve to twenty hours late.

Dispose of Mountain Ranch,

Mr.. and Mrs. stacy koDerts were
down from Hardman on Monday clos
ing up deal whereby Mrs. Roberts
has disposed Of her Toll Rock ranch
to Fred Ashbaugh, of Rood Canyon.
We did not learn the consideration.
Mr.. Ashbaugh has thus secured one
OF the best timbered tracts in Nor
row county, and we are informed
that it is his intention to erect mill
on the place at once and begin saw
ing lumber. This mill will be put
up and operated by Mr.. Frank Ward,
according to present arrangements,
and it is stated that less than one
tree to the acre is all that will be
necessary to pay for the purchase
price of the tract of land. In the
selling of this place, Mr.. and Mrs.
Roberts are left without property in
this county save house and lot that
they own in Hardman, and this they
expect to dispose of soon.
