The Socialists are not all disloyal,
but most of the disloyal in this
country are Socialists. And, we may
truthfully add, fools. For, with the
Bolshevik fizzle in Russia staring
the world in the face, American
Socialists, in their conventions, en-
dorse this anarchy, and resolve that
Uncle Sam shall recognize it, and
want the same kind of government
for the rest of the world, including
America. What a lesson here for
American Socialists who should now
see in which direction they have
been led. and the fate in store for
the nation that accepts pure and I'M
adulterated Socialism,! Do you want
to live under the Red flag? Do you
want the l. w. w. in the saddle in
the United States? But that is ex-
actly what American Socialists, in
recent conventions have endorsed
and-let us see, didn't Woodrow
Wilson recently throw a little SYM
pathetic sop to the Russian Bolshe,
vik? Wonder what our president
thinks Of this bunch of patriots
now? For the Bolshevik makes the
Hohenzollerns look like amateurs in
the business of oppression, horror
inhuman brutality and savagery

PORTLAND CUTS RED TAPE
ACTING ON WAR INSURANCE

What was perhaps the most elab-
crate soldiers insurance campaign
in the entire Northwest Division was
made by the Portland Chapter,
which was called on, by relatives Of
soldiers, to act for the entire state.
In place of wasting time, and refer
ring inquiries to their respective
Chapters. the Portland Chapter cut
red tape and went right ahead.
1t dispatched and paid for EOS
cablegrams and a great number of
night letters. at total cost of over
$500, altho in number of cases
relatives themselves paid for the
cablegrams. The cablegrams urged
soldiers to cable back authorization
for insurance to be taken out on
their behalf. This was before the
s1xty-day extension became known
In every case where reply was not
received, the Portland Chapter made
out and sent request Tor insurance
in the name of the relative, mark
ing that application Awaiting
authorization"
In handling the insurance cam
paign. Robert II. Strong, chairman
Civilian Relief, devoted much time,
while Mrs. ]. N. Davis, secretary,
Aept three stenographers busy.
That keen interest in Red Cross
work Is manifested througout the
islands as well as in America itself
was emphasized recently in the re
ceipt of s248 from the leper settle
ment at Molokai, where SO of the
colonists subscribed in amounts from
so cents to $1,000.
Chas. Callahan. of Burlington.
Washington, has donated suite of
six large rooms, with heat and light
to the Burlington auxiliary.
The Junior Red Cross at Grants
Pass. Oregon, which is headquarters
for Josephine Chapter, has an ingen-
ious scheme for raising money by
placing boxes around the schools
bearing a legend to show what they
are for and ito which the children,
quite secretely, by the Australian
ballot system, pour their contribu-
tions. Thus, if they are unable to
contribute they. are not embarrassed
by their inability.
Twenty-Cne thousand seventy nine
knitted articles were distributed by
Lewis A. Macarthur, field director of
the Northwest Division in the camps
OF the Columbia River district lin
January. The shipments, which
came from the Portland Eugene and
Astoria Chapters. were sent to Van
couver Barracks and Fort Stevens.
Nearly 10000 sweaters and 5000
pairs of socks were used.

STILL DEFENDING THAT NEASE
CRAFT OF $4,000.

Very well. the Orofino Tribune is
for the Nease cruise, and would pay
the graft; the Republican has sup
ported the taxpayers whom the old
gang was robbing under the pretext
OF cruising the county. All the tax
payers in the county who endorse
the Orofino Tribune and want to be
taxed to help pay that Nease graft
please stand up and be counted. If
the Orofino Tribune crowd, or the
democrats can get back into control
they will favor paying Nease, and
grating another $4,000 for an al
legged cruise, will they! Well, We
know a lot Of democrats in this
county who are back of Mr.. Becker
and the republican county board in
this matter, and the Tribune SLAM
ders the democratic party when it
defends the Nease graft. Just think
OF the Nease case and blush! A
plain case of steal; a hOldup, a
burglary! The court records show
that Nease favored the timber com
panies to the extent of about $5,-
100000 or more; actually met the
timber people in Spokane and then
reduced the cruise millions and mil
lions of feet. For what? And act
ually listed as burned" large tracts
of green white pine. Why? And
the Orofino' Tribune approves of the
graft. When a republican county
board repudiates this graft and the
courts sustain the officials, the Oro-
fino Tribune defends Nease, and says
the county should pay the bill.
What really hurts is not that the
graft for Nease failed, but perhaps
the gang was to get $4,000 or
$4,000 out of the deal! Was 1t
any rawer than the Swinton deal?
And remember the democratic pa
per in Clearwater county, a paper
backed by Democrats. the organ
of our democratic governor, and one
that has a monopoly on the demo-
cratic patronage of the Federal gov
eminent, endorses the Nease graft.
That the people may really know
what this Nease graft was perhaps
it will be well to publish a column
or more of the testimony each issue.
Let the people judge.

A GOOD CREED.

The following Is clipped from an
exchange, and deserves to be care
fully digested:
You cant make real success
without making real enemies
You can't hold a strong position
without strong opposition.
You can't seem right to any if
you don't seem wrong to many.
A useful life can't be entirely
peaceful and carefree.
Every earnest man in every gen
Grafton has paid the price of indi-
viduality.
You cant dodge.
The greater you are, the greater
the penalty of your progress. The
range of contact with which you
must reckon, and therefore. you null
tiply your battles against miscon-
ception and Islander and envy and
malice.
You can't avoid or evade your
allotted destiny-you can only hold
down your share of troubles by
holding back
In every sphere men gibe and
sneer-eyen the peace of the ditch
digger is threatened by the unem-
ployed laborer who covets his job
So long as you aspire, others will
eonspire-so long as you try others
will vie.
You'll have hostility to face in
every place and at every pace
Go straight ahead to your goal.
SO long as your conscience isn't
ashamed to acknowledge you as a
friend. don't give a rap for your
enemies

RED CROSS HOUSES TO BE
BUILT AT ALL CANTONMENTS

A Red Cross house soon will be
constructed in each of the Army and
Navy training camps.
1t is intended primarily to be a
lounge and rest haven for GONZALES
cent soldiers. 1t will also be an ad-
ministration center for the Field
Director Of the Red Cross, an emer-
gency lodging for summoned rela-
tives of those rockies" dangerous
ly ill, and for Red Cross nurses and
STATS
A new headquarters for all Red
Cross activities in the camp hospital
will be provided by the Red Cross
house, and it will serve also to de-
velop to full efficiency the Red Cross
Communication Service, through
which families and friends of sold
iers can obtain prompt, accurate,
and detailed information as to their
welfare. This service covers the
camps in America, as well as the
battle front.
One of the first of these struc-
lures to be built will be at CamI
Meade, for which bids soon will be
opened at the office of the Depart
ment of Military Relief of the Amer,
lean Red Cross. Construction work
in all the other camps and canton
| ments will be rushed
For convalescents, many new com.
forts will be provided by the Red
Cross house. These will include 8
solarium, or sun parlor," a glass
ed-in porch, and stage, upon which
movies" and other entertainment Is
can be given. A billiard room, kit
| chen, reading, reception, and com
| mittee rooms, in addition to a larg.
assembly hall, will also be located
on the first floor. The second f1ool

WHAT THE RED CROSS IS
DOING FOR THE SOLDIERS.
SUNNY CALIFORNIA FINDS
NORTHWEST UP AND AT IT.

A graphic idea of what Red Cross
work in the Northwest means may
be gathered from a recent copy of
the San Diego Union, in which Lee
rcy A. Wright, chairman of the SaM
diego. California, Chapter, WIS in
terviewed.
So striking did his comments ap-
pear to Californians that the Union
printed them on the front page.
Here is what Mr.. Wright said:
Take off your hats to Portland.
Their Chapter has blazed the way
for San Diego to follow. During the
last week l have attended meetings
of the Portland Executive Commit
tee, and ! am enthusiastic about the
work there.
Il never saw anything like it.
California Chapters should send rep
resentatives to Portland to learn and
become inspired. Portland's Lei
Cross has set out to help win the
war. Men and women alike are
aroused
Portland has a population of
little more than 100000. During
the Red Cross Christmas drive 1t
went over the top with $4,000 mem
bers in the city. Where's the Cali
fornia city that is worthy to touch
the hem of Portland's Red Cross
garment?
From December 20 to January
20 the Portland Chapter spent $14,-
1851 for the material which went
into surgical dressings. knitted goods
and supplies. They estimate that
this represents $4,000 value in fin-
ished product.
How do they do it? They think
Red Cross; they talk Red Cross.
Everybody's doing it. The banker.
the baker. and the candlestick max
err; the society leader, the house
wife. the maid-all are iterested and
all do their bit.
1.-THE leading department store has
given the entire eighth floor to the
Red Cross. Here mere than 200
women-the leading women of Port
land-may be found almost any
hour of the day, cutting, sewing,
knitting. Yes, knitting better his
tory than Dickens character in The
Tale of Two Cities
THE women of Portland's Red
Cross Chapter maintain a shop
every dollar taken in is profit The
store is on one of the principal bus
mess streets. 1t occupies three
floors. Somebody pays the rent,
somebody pays the gas and electric
light bills; somebody pays the book
keeper. But Mr.. Somebody is a
patriot, and not a cent of expense
comes from the Red Cross. The shop
made a profit of about $500 for
November and December, and up to
January 20 the months receipts
were more than $4,000.
THE Portland Chapter keeps a
depot of supplies, for which it pays
cash. 1t sells yarn, guaze and all
supplies to it's branches at cost. 1t
shipped more than 100 cases to the
new York depot during December.
"The Portland Chapter does won
ders because it's members do mar
Vicious work. They do individual
work; they do team work, too.
An old lady. S3 years of age,
made sweater in two days. a
younger woman knit one in nine
hours and IL minutes.

can try and try until we equal it,"

THIS is NO TIME FOR DRONES.

The Clearwater Republican has
enlisted in the service of Uncle Sam
for the duration of the war. All we
have or may hope for is at stake;
all that we would beQueath to our
children is in the balance; all that
we can hope for the human race is
hanging on the acknowledgements
or autocracy. Uncle Sam needs the
support of the editors of this nation
as much as he needs men to fight in
the trenches, nurses in the hospitals,
or farmers to produce food. Not a
loan could succeed, not even an
army raised, without the support Of
nation could begin to defend itself
the newspapers had to create a SEN
timent that was irresistible. Before
bonds could be sold the newspapers
had to prepare the public mind, and
for the first Liberty Loan drive the
Treasury Department says the Amer
lean publishers contributed millions
of dollars worth of advertising. and
the editorial space devoted was of
vastly more value. No class of our
citizens have greater responsible
ity, or are rendering a greater SER
vice to the nation than the publish
ers. Were it not for that we would
suspend publication and go to some
shipyard and help build transports.
A paper that is not backing the
war to the limit has no excuse to
live in this country at time like
this. A paper that is actally disloy-
al, and supporting men like Hofs-
tede. should be suspended by the
Government, and the publisher put
to work digging coal or blowing.

That there is just one man to
blame in any camp or cantonment
in the Northwest if he does not OBJ
tain Red Cross sweater or pair of
socks, was the declaration of Lewis
A. Macarthur, field director of the
American Red Cross. That man is
the soldier himself.
All the soldier has to do is to go
to his commanding officer and ASK.
Usually, he cannot obtain knitted
goods by wishing. And it is really
better for the soldier to ask his COM
handing officer, when requisition
will be issued him for what he re-
quires, than for him to write com
planning letters to relatives, who de-
luge the Red Cross with their let
tiers. The Portland Red Cross Chap
ter has received more than 100 let
ters of this kind recently. and not
one of the cases proved to be as the
relatives declared.

The Red Cross Shop of the Spo-
kane Chapter is one of the most
successful ventures of its kind. On
its opening day the shop took in
$465. every cent Of which, of course,
went to the Chapter.
Many Chapters have made win.
dow displays of the work of the
Junior Red Cross. One of the most
effective is that of the Portland
Chapter School Committee in a win
dow donated by Meier & Frank
Considerably more than one-half
the schools in Portland, Oregon, are
auxiliaries of the American Red
Cross and it is highly likely that in
the course of week Portland will
become a 100 per cent Junior Cross
city.

And what will the Orofino Trib-
une say If the Republican should
say that a republican county COM
missioner was told that there was
$4,000 in 1t for the county board
If the Nease case was dropped and
the taxpayers of the county stung
for the $4,000 and interest, now
totaling $4,000? Did the republic
can board drop the case? How much
would the grafters have paid had
the old gang put the deal across?
Is there a reason why the Tribune
howled for that graft? Once more
let us ask: DID THE NEASE
CRUISE PAY? And who was 1t to
have paid? An editor who will. in
view of the known facts. endorse
the Nease graft would rob a grave
yard or steal from an orphan.

The Bolshevik government So

wicked and cruel and undemocratic
than the Hohenzollern military gov
