They say that Christ was man Of
peact It was his vision that saw
the crimson plood-red fields of today
with the Moloch of Autocracy stalk
ing forth in the scarlet uniform Of
hell, putting the death-rattle in the
throats of countless thousands of men
and women and innocent children.
This causes the sword of Christ to
leap from it's scabbard and flash with

In these days we cannot afford to
cling to old habits just because they
are our habits and we like them. 1t
is as much our duty to form any
new habits, which will make us
more useful patriots as it is the duty
of the soldiers and sailors to adapt
themselves to the most effective
method of modern warfare.
Coidpack canning is the most ap-
proved scientific uprto-date way Of

HAVE YOU BEEN DEFRAUDED?

On our first page today we have featured news item
that OF the utmost interest and Importance to this
ton as well as to the entire country
It tells briefly of the conviction of the worlds great
est mail order house for praccng fraudusng fake adj
yertisements in its cataogs and price lists
The most interesting and vital part of the article Isl
that it tells you that Sears, Roebuck Company were
only convicted of fraud in their schemes get your
mail order dollars but THEY ADMIT that their adver-
Using misrepresented the goods they sold you.
The conviction secured by the United States gov
eminent acting through the Federal Trade Commission
The Journal has contended for years that the people
who bought goods by mail order were taking long
chance
We felt that they must have the greatest confidence in
the world in the honesty and integrity of the mail order
houses to send away thousands Of dollars for goods before
they even saw them
We wonder if they will continue to have that same
confidence in concern that has publicly admitted that it
has been practcing fraud to get your money.
While the item the first page does not go into
great detail it does show that while the company might
cut the price some we'll known article of established
value, merely ba it always made back that loss and
much the sale of other articles that the purchaser
could not judge in value.
Recently in an editorial we stated that it was i'm
possible to compare the prices charged by the mail order
houses and socaled clubs with those of the local
chant because the mail order houses sold articles under
private brands and Names the value Of which I'M
known. $3.50 a. 50.
That is the way these houses that now admit that
they have been practising fraud have mulcted you out of
the money that you should have spent in your COM
unity for articles that you knew the value Of That is
how the mail order houses have made many millions of
dollars year profits from the sale to you of goods that
you thought you buying cheaper than from your
own neighborhood store.
We cannot but wonder how far the other smaller and
less known houses have gone in defraudng the public
Certainly no one will say that Sears, Roebudk & Com
pany the only who have been fleeing the peo
pie through Misrepresentation and fraud.
Aside from every worthy and patriotic motive that
should all to spend money at home this clear
exposure by the United States government and the ad
mission by the company, ought to put end to this silly
practice Of mail order buying.
We wonder - some people have habits that it is hard
for them to give up.

NEW PEST DAMAGES
TOMATOES IN MD.

Tomato growers of Oxford, Nd,
report the prevalence of new pest
the pea bug. This is sap-sucking
insect akin to the red and black
plant lice, seen on certain species
of flowers. 1t attaches itself to the
leaves and stems and weakens or
destroys the plant by sucking the
juice. Some patches are reported as
ruined. In construction with the I'M
favorable season it contributes an
unpromising tomato outlook.

We see by the Okanogan Independ-
ent that Grover Fore has been ap-
pointed county assessor by the county
commissioners to fill the vacancy

and the Independent states that he
is the first man who was ever re-
elected to that office in this county.
That can be pretty we'll understood,
as the assessor is generally made the
goat when 1t comes to paying taxes,
and as the election follows tax paying
time those who have felt aggrieved
still nurse raw spot and take it out
on the assessor at the polls. 1t can
be said of MIR. Knosher that he has
made fair and conscientious asses
sor, and that is hardly neces-
say in the face Of the fact that he
served in the office for two terms.
He goes into the bank at Loomis as
