THE FRENCH BOND BUYERS.

The French people are the greatest
investors in government bonds in the
world. At the close of the Franco
Prussian war in 1870 Germany de-
manded and collected from France
$1,000, 100000 indemnity. The
French people, who were as loyal
then in responding to their country's
need as their soldiers are today, hast
ened to lend this tremendous sum to
their country.
Their patriotism turned a great
misfortune into a great benefit. Their
thrift in thus saving their money and
Investing it in government bonds not
only brought great prosperity to
France but the bonds rose in value
all over the world and made the
French national credit good wherever
civilization existed Ten years after
the bonds were issued they command
ed a premium of 25 per cent.
What the American nation is called
upon to do in lending tthe American
government $4,000, 100000 and TAX
ing its bonds therefor is little com
pared with the loan of $1,000, ,000,-
900 to France after the Franco-Prus-
sian war by the French people.
Called upon to do much less than

VOTE FOR THE BOND ISSUE.

Yes, we are going to vote for the
bond issue, because the improvement
of the five hundred miles of road in
Oregon will save us more in automo-
bile tires and repairs than the doub-
ling of our auto tax amounts to.
Then, anyhow, under another law
our auto tax will be doubled after
the first of August, whether the six
million bond issue goes up or goes
down, therefore it seems to us to be
only matter of whether we want to
pay the double tax and wear our ma
chine out on bad roads while we do
that, or save the extra expense by
building good roads right now and
saving more than its cost in wear and
tear on tires.
We are going to vote for the six
million-dollar bond issue

NOTICE TO DELINQUENTs.

The bookkeeper in checking over
the city subscription list, finds about
rs subscribers whose subscription has
lately expired, who have been sent
notices, but have not renewed. No
doubt many of them have simply
neglected to come in and renew. Ow-
ing to the exceedingly high cost of
paper we will be compelled to stop all
subscriptions not paid. All subscrip-
tions not paid will be dropped after
this issue. On June the Tidings
will be compelled to pay seven hun
dred dollars for paper that cost two
hundred and fifty this time last year.
We must have the money to meet
this high cost of paper.

THE TERMS OF THE LIBERTY
LOAN.

The act authorizing the Liberty
Loan Bonds of 1917 was passed April
"a, 1917. 1t provides for the issu-
ance of $4,000, 100000 Of 3h per
cent bonds, the interest payable semi
annually on December Is and June
Is of each year. The principal is re-
payable on or after the 18th day Of
June, 1882, at the option Of the gov
ernment, and If this option is not ex-
ercised the bonds will run full 80
years and become due June Is, 1947.
The bonds are exempt both as to
principal and interest from all taxa
ton, national, state, county or mu-
nicipal, except the inheritance tax,
which is really not tax on the prop
erty, but on the transfer of property
by will or inheritance.
The bonds are to be sold at par
that is, dollar for dollar, no premium
and no discount. They are to be. sold
by the treasurer of the United States
and all Federal Reserve Banks. But
all banks, national and state, postof-
fices and express companies have
been designated as agents of the
government to receive applications
for these bonds. 1t is almost as easy
to purchase one of these bonds as II
is to get a postoffice money order.
It is not necessary to pay cash In
full for a bond. One can pay down
2 per cent of the purchase price or
application-that is, 81 for a $5(
bond, 50 for a 500 bond, etc.-1S
per cent on July 25, 1917; 20 pei
cent July 80, 1917; 80 per cent Aug
ust Is, 1917, and the balance, 80 pei
cent, August SO, 1917.

THE KAIsER's PRAYER.
With His Latest ultimatum.


The newspapers Of the country
have been full of Kaiser's prayers"
recently, and 1t is with pleasure that
we reprint the first, and 1t seems to
us the best, Of the verses with the
kaiser's partnership with the Lord as
the subject:
Gott, Gott, dear Gott, attention
blease,
Your bardner Vilhelm's here,
Und has a word or two to say
Into your private ear.
So turn away all udders now,
Und listen veil to me,
For vat I say concerns me much
Meinself und Shermany.
You know, dear Gott, l vas your
friendt
Und from mein hour of birth
I quietly let you rule der Heffen
While | ruled DER der earth.
Und ven ! told mein soldiers
OF bygone battle days,
gladly split der glory
Und gif you half der braise.
In every way 1 dried to brove
Mein heart to you vas true,
Und only claimed mein honest share
In great deeds vat We do.
You could not half a better friendt
In sky, or land, or sea
Dan Kaiser Wilhelm number two,
Der Lord of Shermany.
So vat I say, dear Gott, is dis:
Dat We should still be friendts,
Und you should help to send mein
foes
To meet deir bitter endts.
If you, dear Gott, will dis me do
I'll holdings ask again,
Und I und you will partners be
For efermore, Amen.
But listen, Gott, it must be quick
Your help to me you sendt,
Or else l haf to stop attack
Und only blay defendt.
So, four und twenty hours I Gift
To make der allies run,
Und make me safe into mein blaze
Der middle of der sun.
If you do dis, I'll do my bart
I'll tell der world der fact;
But If you don't, den I must dink
1t is und hostile act,
Den war at once I must declare
Und in mein anger rise
Und send mein Zepp-lin ships to wage
Und fight up in der skies.
Dis ultimatum, now, dear Gott,
Is Won of many more;
Mein mind is settled up to clean
Der whole world off der floor,
Because you vas mein bartner, Gott,
Und extra chance is giffen,
So help at once or else I'll be
Der emperor of Heffen.

APPEAL TO GERMAN BORN
To Join in Campaign to Help United
States Win War.

New York, Dec. 49,. An appeal tC
American citizens Of German birth anc
descent to join its campaign for helping
the United States to win the war, was
made public yesterday by the executive
committee of the friends of German de-
| mocracy. Franz Sigel, son of Gen. Franz
Siegel of Civil war fame, is president OF
the organization.
This war is not a war on the part of
America against the German nation" the
appeal stated. "It is rather war against
peculiar system of society and govern
ment."
The committee declared "that the ma
iority of the German people, if properly
informed about their own government
and its misdeeds, will not wait until the
German nation is completely crushed by
force of arms, but will sooner or later
rise against the kaiser and the junkers
and establish democratic government
in Germany.
During the past 20 years over five
million Germans have come to America
We find that the principles for which
many of our immediate ancestors, or we
ourselves suffered exile, are threatened
by the very powers which forced us as a
people out of Germany. We must rally
with our fellow Americans against the
tyranny which has so long cursed the
country of our fathers and which now
rises as dangerous threat against the
liberty of the whole world.
"The friends of German democracy
urge our German people in America, by
every means in their power, to assert
themselves on the side of right in this
conflict"

AIR RAIDERS
SCATTERED
One Plane Surely Destroyed
and Two Others Prob

LONDON CASUALTIES
NOT YET REPORTED
Only Five of Nearly Score of
Airplanes Succeeded in
Reaching the City

London, Dec. l9.--One of the German
airplanes, which took part in last night 4
raid over England, was brought down
and another is believed to have been de.
stroyed, the war Office announces. From
III to 20 raiders, divided into six groups
endeavored to reach London but only five
succeeded in dropping bombs on the city.
There is reason to believe another
raider dropped into the English channel,
says the report
A British pilot fired two drums of am
munition into one raider as it was drop
ping bombs on London from height Of
$4,000 feet. The raider known definitely
to have been destroyed was hit by the
fire of anti-aircraft guns and finally
dropped into the sea off Kent. Two of
the three members of the crew were cap
tured by an an armed trawler. After
the main attacks ceased a single airplane
flew over London about 0 o'clock.
Ten persons were killed and 20 were
injured in London during the raid. Out
side of London five persons were injured.
The material damage was not serious.
