Element of the Irish question has
received no good word from anybody
In Ireland, Nationalist, whether
supporters or opponents Of John
Redmond, agree in condemning the
proposals. They are regarded as
the worst yet put forward and as
putting the clock back behind the
position Sir Edward Carson. the I'll
ster leader assumed at the Bucking-
ham palace conference in 1914. II
is pointed out that they exclude six
countries en- bloc without giving
them a chance of voting their views.
Many of the nationalist express
the opinion that the partition poll
icy was adopted as a tactical move
TO defeat home rule and that once
home rule was recognized as inevi-
table even the unionist counties
would vote themselves in. especially
the Episcopalian Protestants, whose
church is bound by many ties to all
Ireland.
1t is further pointed out that the
proposals not only prevent the ma
tiOnalist counties of Tyrone and Fer
managh from voting themselves in,
but hinder their coming in later by
providing for their inclusion with
the others in one unit
The suggested convention of all

THE TIME FOR NATIONAL CLEANUP

One of the most important results of the should
be the cleaning up of the irresponsible mob of agtators
who have been allowed to the seeds of anarchy in
this country without attracting the slightest attention of
the officials in the past Now when the country needs all
its people and to cope with foreign foe those
IT, W. W. leaders and others of their l many of them of
foreign birth, ignorant prejudiced and disloya are
creating end Of trouble 1t is the harvest of the seed
sown by soap box orators and demagogue politicians
who prefer making living by fomenting trouble to
holding down an honest job at good pay
These l. w. w. strikes and anti-draft riots will only
result in thng-and that will come soon. The gov
ernment will strike and strike hard in the districts most
effected by the malcontents, of them no doubt
secretly in the pay Of the Prussian Martial
law and its swift justice backed by firing squad to
execute the sentence of the martial will stamp
out these troubemakers because the cowardy mob of
traitors always deserts its leaders when the showdown
comes.
If the cleans up the country and results In the
making Of nation of Americans who are loyal to the
government and its institutions the struggle will have
been worth it's cosno matter how great that may
have been in blood and treasure.

FLAX A LIGHT CROP.

The flax crop, like everything else,
is very short this year. The farmers
had the seed planted in fine condition
and the flax was growing so even and
fine that we were almost certain of a
big crop. Since the seeding the crops
received practically no rain.
There is no reason for the farmers to
lose confidence in the success of the
flax industry in the valley. Flax is
bound to be one of the leading crops
and shall take the place of hops. 1t
took some time to make success of
hop raising, also Loganberries. A new
linen mill is now starting in Portland
1t will take 5000 acres of flax to run it
the first year. This is great boom for
the flax industry as we will get good
cash market at home.
Some flax crops will bring this year
$25 per acre. Ask E. c. Ball and others
and help to make the flax industry a
success by blowing your land early and

million is fast assuming shape and that there will
be other millions to back this up They know that
the United States is ready pour her unlimited wealth
into the contest and that she will not hesitate until ner
object has been accomplished Hence the gathering.
Hence also the sudden offer of Austria to make peace
with England and to act go-between in bringing about
peace between Germany and those opposing her. Ger
many is perhaps long way from being beaten yet but
that she will be beaten we'll known to the kaiser and
his satellites is to President Wilson All the kaiser
and the military bunch around him can hope is some
peace that will still leave them in control 1t is their jobs
