be the new insurance against hard
times.
do not believe that we shall ever
again have money panics-the fedcr-
al reserve system has stopped them.
1t has prevented several panics
since tra European war began.
But there is always the possibility
of dep assion due to decreased de
mand for cUr factory goods.
Merchant Marine VIII Remove Trade
Limits.
With active merchant marine and
a healthy, growing world trade, how
ever, we shall be in wholly differ
ent position.
Now, that we are about to really
cause world trade with our own ships
and bankers, and statesmen, it will
be possible to discount hard times at
home.
Should business fall off here we
can 60 to other countries where times
are good--and times are always good
somewhere around the world-and
sell our factory surplus.
We will have customers in other
countries and statesmen, and branch
banks we will have ships to serve
those customers.
The greatest business in this
country is farming. The farmers
business, however, is linked up with
that of the manufacturer Also the
farmer depends absolutely upon
a.. .5portauon for his markets and
profit.
The American merchant marine
represents the biggest transportation
enterprise undertaken by this coun-
try. since we built the trans
continental railroads.
1t is bound to increase and sta
bilize the farmers business.
For that reason he may well sup
port it as good business.

Flu Epidemic on Butter Creek,

There is genuine epidemic of flu
on Butter creek in the Lena neighbor-
hood, and scarcely a family out that
way has escaped, and has. some
member down with the disease.
Among those seriously afflicted is
Mr.. and Mrs. Wasco Vincent. Mr..
Vincent has developed pneumonia
and has been very sick the past
week and under the care of trained
nurse. Mrs. Vincent is now quite
over the disease. Percy Hughes is
also reported to be very sick and
some of the members of the family
OF W. E. Straight are down, among
the numerous others whose names we
have not learned There seems to
be a general spread of the disease
among the people along the creek.

Willie Whitney, a young Irishman

Gently, of John Kilkenny, was taken
sick early last week and brought to
the Heppner hospital, suffering with
Spanish influenza. The disease had
taken a firm hold on the young man,
and pneumonia developing, he passed
way on Monday. Funeral services
were held yesterday morning from
the Catholic church, Rev. Father P.
J. O'Rourke, officiating. Mr.. Whit

sometimes, clouds of sorrow and
trouble obscure cur vision and thea
perhaps, we feel that God does not
love u.s. The darkness which en-
compasses the soul is a result of the
clouds about US. The love of God
is persisting and sending its benef-
icence upon us all the time. Some
times in rebellion we turn from Him.
Sometimes in sin we offend Him.
Even then God loves us; Jesus seeks
to lead us back. Jesus has given us
the parallels of the Lost Sheep and
Of the Prodigal Son in an effort to
make us understand this. what
shall separate US from the love of
Christi" asks Paul. Then he an
swers the question. Nothing can!
from. S:35-39). He never will
cease to love those who seek to
please Him.
iii. The Height of Christ's Love.
What did Paul mean by the height
Of Christ's love? He probably meant
this: The love of Christ takes hold
of believer and lifts him up to a
higher plane of thought and life and
usefulness Whatever may be the
attitude of God toward the rest of
creation faith leaves no question as
to Gods love for mankind. His love
lifts us out of the animal kingdom
and places us above all else in the
world. Further than that, when
Jesus died upon the cross. he opened
the door through which, believers
may pass into the realm of spiritual
and eternal life. We may become
partakers of the divine nature. We
are adopted into Gods family. We
become sons of God. Thus the love
of Christ ennobles us and inspires
us to try to walk worthily as chill
dren of light. Yes, if we will SUBJ
init ourselves to Him his love will
lift us up to heavenly places in
Christ Jesus. If from that height we
could look down and compare life
we do live with the life 1t is possible
for us to live how little, how trivial,
how mean would appear some of the
ambitions which possess us, the wor-
ries, vanities, dislikes and squabbles,
which seem to be SO important to us

NEXT FISHING SEASON.

An officer of the Norfolk and Wash
ington steamer Southland told rep
resentative of the Gazette a day or
two ago that the Potomac river for
some distance down is alive with
young shad and herring. The steam
ers for Norfolk leave earlier now
than heretofore, and much of the river
can be viewed by daylight. Dimuni-
tive shad and herring, it is said, are
to be seen everywhere, and there is
reason to believe that next springs
fishery will be one of the most sue
cessful ever experienced hereabouts.
The reason given for such auspici-
Gus conditions is the fact that the
number of fishermen in the river and
bay has been largely curtailed OF
late. Labor is scarce, and men who
heretofore earned their livelihood as
fishermen have found more lucrative
employment in other capacities.
During our civil war, when similar
conditions prevailed, there were IN
usually large runs of fish during the

FOCH's SIGNIFICANT WORD.

A few months ago, when Germany
was driving its Juggernaut car
through northern France, when place
after place was falling as tenpins be-
fore the fierce invaders the allies
had reason for anxiety. On several
occasions General Foch was ap-
preached by troubled ones who asked
questions in their nervousness. The
French hero answered with monosy-
llable-"Wait. only this and moth
ing more.
There is an old saying that all
things ocme to those who wait After
having expended their strength in
costly drives, the Huns find them
selves upon the defensive with an
avenging army of French, English,
Americans, portuguese anu othefS o1
the brave allies so close upon their
heels that town after town is being
evacuated as the ARMIES OF the Crown
Prince rush from place to place for
safety.
There IS reason TO believe that the
precipitate retreat of the invaders will
result in a rout.

perfect team work in developing the
natural relation which Virginia bears
to the country's military and naval
operations. In this combination Mr..
Carlin has proved himself an efficient
factor. To supplant him with an
untried man would be blunder as
well as violation of justice towards
an official who has been weighed in
the balance and not, found wanting.
Besides this consideration, it is the
natural desire of President Wilson
net to be deprived of the cooper
alton of members of Congress who
have demonstrated fervent loyalty to
the country and the government, and
possess the experience which multi
pies the effectiveness of their sup

AN APPEAL TO sUFFRAGANS.

To the Editor Of the Alexandria Ga
zette.
While not gwen to rushing into
print, l respectively ask my old
friend. the Alexandria Gazette, to
print the few words | have to say in
regard to the election next Tuesday.
While the great mass CT voters
throughout the Eighth Congressional
District have long since made up their
minds to vote for Hon. Charles :.
Carlin to succeed himself, l know that
certain Alexandrians, not enough,
however, to make any perceptlble
dent in the majority column, an
nounce their preference for +. b.
White, who is aspiring for Mr.. Car
Inns position.
| do not desire to enter into any
argument, but would respectfully
insist that all Alexandrians should
be quick to come to the support Of
one who has grown up among us, and,
like Abraham Lincoln, James A. Gar
field. and others who have fought
their way through a hostile world, has
studied in his spare time and qualified
himself fer the most important posi-
lion in his district. While his worth
is admitted by the great mass, Ike
Andrew Johnson and others, his foes,
although few, are among those OF MS
own household. We prefer tG believe
that some are amenable 10 reason, and
ere sunrise Tuesday morning Will
have revised their opinion.
do not believe in scolding any one
while imploring him TO revise his
opinion, but, in all seriousness, let
Alexandria roll up as large a majority
as possible for one who has tried AMI
not found wanting.
1t is unnecessary for me who has
been closely identified with Mr.. Car
lin from his youth and who has had
ample opportunity to study him, to
recount his usefulness. We al! be-
siege him when we desire his services
and none are turned away empty. He
wants and should receive the ack-
nowledgment due hn.
I hope every voter in the district
will do his duty Tuesday, especially
those in old Alexandria.
Respectfully, NJ. B. Harlow

MAY OMIT ANNUAL VISIT.

Germany will be responsible for
the disappearance of Santa Claus this
wear and for the years to come when
there is war. This is the statement
of the national counsel of defense.
As contemporary suggests, this IS
bad news, most unwelcome news, to
the many Thousands Of little children
in this c;untry. 1t has been a reall-
cation to the children of France,
England, Belgium, Serbia, Italy for
the last four years. War precipitated
by Germany has been responsible for
this condition, and in that latter
country Santa Claus has not paid as
many visits as usual.
Due to the war, when great
amounts of work must be done for
the soldiers and for the government,
it is found impossible for the rail-
roads, steamboats, and electric lines
and airplanes to get out of the way
for the approach of Old Nick and his
reindeer.
The suggestion is that the govern
ment needs the money for the prose
cution of the war, and the sale of war
stamps-in themselves a most accept
able and patriotic gifts to be urged
in every direction. The purchase OF
war bonds will be one way in which
Christmas gifts with meaning can
be had.
