A CANNERY EVERY THOUSAND MILES

In the stretch of country between Port Graham and Cordova about 300 miles direct with about OOO miles ot coast line there will be two canneries in operation both being built this season. One at Seward and the other at Port Nellie Juan one hundred and fifty miles apart which is not very thick in country where there plenty of fish,
 The possibilities of fish and fishing on the Alaskan coast for the poor cannot be exaggerated On the shores of Resurrection bay there for hundreds of families and other parts of the coast will furnish homes for thousands %GN
 With few barrels of salt, some tools and boat man can go hundreds of places and carve out home for himself the sea furnishes his crop and all he has to do is to gather and make ready for the market the land will furnish him with vegetables, etc. and his home can be built of logs water is furnished at his back door by na ture and all it requires is energy and backbone and small capital to start with.
 Why will a man slave out his life for a corporation working for wage that is barely enough to keep body and soul together when nature offers him so much?
 It is up to the chamber of commerce to keep grinding until we have the same number of canneres that they have in southeastern Alaska, in an equal distance.

THE NEW NAPOLEON

Recent uncenSOred news from Germany brings word that it is not the kaiser yet again, the German people who are openly inviting against the United States but the iron man behind the throne General Luden dorf
 "Ludendorf is for it" is the most repeated phrase in all Germany today. He 1t seems is the real Hndenberg, while the man bearing the only executes the plans of the master mind
 Back r 1914 it was Ludendorff uuartermaster-gener- al of the army who hustled to the esate front when the Russians were crushing through toward Berlin. On the way he gathered up Hmdenberg and the result is well known He put his systems of control into effect in the occupied districts of Russia and has applied them to all Germany.
 His voice in political affairs comes from the confi- dence shown in him and his influence in the entourage of the kaiser. He has never failed thus far.
 When Hindenberg succeeded von Falkenhayn as head of the general staff it really LudendOrff who became chief and he at once set about correcting the of his predecessor Falkenhayn attempted to fix the maximum consumption of ammunition and munitions and work up to it. and his estimate was sadly insufficient Ludendorff determined to produce the maximum amount capable
 To this end he brought about the auxiliary labor ser vice. conversion of industry to absolute war basis the transfer of Belgans to German fields and factories tightening of the food regulations and the enstng of an army of a 100000 women to relieve the wherever possible right up to the firing lines in order that the men might serve with the guns.
 His final effort is unrestricted submarine warfare
 "Ludendorff is for it." so Germany is for it. He dis likes Americans and is open in his contempt for mi tary pOwer though aware of it's pOentiateS He holds that with the submarines Germany bring England to her knees during the next three months and that will he unable to bring any organization bear until this is finished

RESIGNATION OF
LANE DEMANDED

Resignation of Harry Lane
from the United States senate
is being demanded. Never has
an Oregon delegate to Congress
been so generally denounced as
has Mr.. Lane. If Lane is a can
didate for reelection again next
year. his defeat is already as
sured. William Bittle Wells, a
prominent Democratic editor Of
Portland, has sent out petitions
to go newspapers in Oregon ask
ing the resignation Of Senator
Lane. We have received a copy
of the petition at this Office and
anyone who wishes may call and
sign.
The petition reads as follows:
Harry Lane,
Senator from Oregon,
Washington, D. c.
Strive, the undersigned, vot-
ers of the State of Oregon, view
with shame and humiliation
your failure to uphold the honor
| of the United States at this most
critical moment of the entire
history of our international re-
Itions.
No words can adequately des-
cribe our chagrin that the State
of Oregon should be so misrep-
sented and disgraced as it has
been by your action. We in
dignantly protest against this
action through the love we bear
to our State and to our Country,
which you have dishonored and
belittled before the eyes of the
world, and we demand on ac-
count Of this Misrepresentation
'your resignation as senator
from this State.

TAXPAYERS WANT
BETTER ROADS

The taxpayers of our county
are fast waking up to the know
ledge that Lincoln county will
never amount to much until we
have more and better roads, that
We need winter roads as we'll as
summer roads.
When the regular March ses-
sion of County Court was called
to order Wednesday morning the
court room was jammed with
taxpayers from all parts of the
county, who were anxious to as
sist the Court in solving the
road problem in this county.
The court allowed everyone
to talk who wished. and the en-
tire day was pat in in discussing
road matters, and we believe
that the taxpayers of the county
have a better insight into the
problems that the court has to
contend with, than they ever
did before. Among the speak
ers present were: Chas. Hass-
man of Yaquina, B. f. Grant of
Harlan, s. T. Loudon of Eddy
vile, H. r. Deakins of Rose
Lodge, r. l.. Hathaway Of Har-
Ian, l.. G. Mowery of Lower ST.
letz, w. B. Hartley, w. H. Water
bury ana B. F. Jones of Newport,
G. e. Hawkins. J. F. Stewart,
Jay Dunn, V. u. Graves, Con.
christensen, c. B. Crosno, G..
w. Byers, Hans Olson and Hugh
Murray of Toledo, w. F. Wood
ard of Portland, and others.
: All kinds of roads, dirt, rock,
plank, macadam and hard sur
face were discussed, also the
fact that Newport had seeded
from the county by having the
late Legislature put it in an eX-
elusive district by itself with
Jurisdiction over all its road mat
ters and the other embarrassing
I knowledge that the state had ig-
nored us entirely in their six mil
| lion dollar road project. The
sale of the rock crusher. Yes al
these things were discussed and
more. And out of the talk-fest
we believe much good will
come. For one thing the Court
was asked to appoint a commit.
tee, with one member from eacf
road district and two from Po
mona Grange and with County
Judge r. r. Miller as chairman
The purpose of this committ'
is to try to get the rest of The
, state to recognize Lincoln coun
,,'ty in their good roads program
Mr.. Woodland of Portland wht
was present also pledged t,
give us all the aid along this lin,
that he can.
The Court has not taken VI
.the matter of the crnsher as yet
Iwlng to the press of other bust
ness.

ASKS COUNTY COURT
FOR SPECIAL ELECTION

Secretary Lee Wade, of the
Port of Toledo, filed an initiative
petition with County Clerk How
ell the first of this week asking
that the County Court call a
special election to vote upon the
proposed enlargement of the
Port Of Toledo.
Everything at this time looks
very favorable for the deeping of
the water on the bar. The U. S.
Government engineers have re-
ported favorably on the project,
recommending that Congress
appropriate the needed funds for
the making of p twenty foot
channel on the Yaquina Bar.

PUBLISHED REPORT
WAS ERRONEOUS

We have reliable information
to the effect that the report as
recently published that the gov
ernment engineers had reported
giving figures on the cost of
both a twenty and thirty foot
depth of water on the Yaquina
Bar, was garbed report and not
authentic. The government en-
gineers made but one report and
that was a favorable report and
called for twenty feet of waite,
at low tide. 1t is unfortunate
that the report regarding a thir.
ty foot channel should have beer
circulated and have gained cred.

WORMS MAKE
CHILDREN FRETFUl

Children suffering from worms
are dull and irritable, puny and
weak, often grind their teeth and
cry out in sleep, being a con-
slant source of worry to their
parents. Kickapoo Worm Killer
is a mild laxative remedy in can
dy tablet form that children like
to take. Promptly effective, it
kills and removes the worm from
the system. Irregular appetite
and bowel movement, lack of in
trest in play are sure signs of
worms. Relieve your child of
this burden. At all druggists,

Excessive Tax Valuation.

The board of supervisors are
in quandary regarding the valua-
tlon placed on the lands of the
county as assessed by the state
tax com mission. It seems that
this COMMISSION ordered that the
assessments be increased to an
average OF SIC per acre from the
present valve of $14. .65.
The board believes that the
suggested valuation by the com.
mission is rather excessive and
this seems to be the general 'opin-
ION of the tax payers of the
county.
