EXPERT FOR PUBLIC
LANDS CHAIRMAN.

Washington, Nov. 16.-Although
the best Of the public lands have
passed into private ownership under
the various homestead and mining
laws, yet there is still a large area
OF land left in the public domain. To
shape public land legislation for the
future will be even more difficult
than in the past, for the very reason
that unappropriated land Is less in
quantity and less desirable in char
acter. To encourage men to settle up
on and utilize the remaining vacant
areas will be no small task. It Ii for
tunate for the country, therefore, and
particularly for the west. that Repre-
sentative Nicholas j. Sinnott of Or
egon will become chairman Of the
Public Lands Committee OF the
House when the Republicans resume
control next March. Sinnott has
been resident of the Columbia Riv-
er Basin since the days when its most
! numerous inhabitants were Indians.
All his life he has been in close touch
with the pioneers--the settlers who
conquered the wilderness. AS an at
torney he became an expert in public
land law AS the spokesman of home
steaders he became familiar with all
their difficulties and privations. His
address on the Water Power Bill is
said to be the best and most thorough
discussion Of water right law, from
the standpoint of Federal jurisdiction
ever presented anywhere. His loyal
training combined with his personal
knowledge of the homesteader's diff
peculiarly valuable service as chair
man of the Public Lands Committee

ONLY A FEW LEAGUERS

paratively few of its members in the
new legislature, canvass of the
names of members-elect show. The
league Endorsed Republicans and
Democrats in some counties while in
others they succeeded in having
league candidates nominated. In
most instances the latter failed OF
election. There seems to be but
eight Endorsed league members in
the house and four in the senate.
Just prior to the election league
headquarters published list of men
nominated to the legislature having
its Endorsement. Introducing this list
the league said: Here is a list of

san league, farmers and organized
labor, for the state legislature. house

EXPOSURE rs THE
ONLY SAFEGUARD

The elections are over and the So
called Non-Partisan League failed
to establish a policy OF state social
ism in northwest states. says the
Industrial News Bureau and Manu-
facturer.
The decisive defeat of the MAORI
ty of its candidates was a great sur
prise to the managers of the organi-
cation.
The defeat of the Non-Partisan
League was a clean cut victory for
straight Americanism VS.. socialism,
Bolshevism and l. W. w. ism and
when the boys come marching home
it win be given its final Knockout
blow.
In the meantime the league lead
ers have announced that the fight
has only begun and for all good men,
bers to pay another years dues in
advance.
The organization will d hard for
it has been too big a money-making
machine for the leaders to drop 1t
without a fight.
One of the first steps to take to
put the final nail in its coffin is to
amend the state primary laws so as
to prevent member and candidate
of one party from running as candi-
date in the primaries of parties to
which they do not belong and thereby
fooling the public. This is the man
ner in which the league has received
large part of its vote, by deceiving
! the public.
While the league has been deci-
sively defeated it has elected few
members in each branch of the state
legislatures in Montana and Idaho.
These league legislators will now
be carefully organized. They have
given iron-bound promises to serve
the league and its interests. There
fore they will be found in the legisla-
lures proposing radical and socialis-
tic measures. claiming they are the
appointed representatives of so many
thousand voters, etc., etc. They will
combine all the elements and discon-
tent which they possibly can just as
they have always done. They will
bait labor and the farmer against
capital and industry If possible.
The danger from going to jail for
seditious utterances will be removed
and the old time hate inspiring class
hatred stirring expressions of the
league leaders will be resumed.
Exposure is the only weapon which
will defeat this soeialistic organiza-
ton and its misguided followers, en-
couraged as they are by self-seeking
politicians.

$500. 900 WORTH OF CANDY
ORDERED FOR CAMP LEWIS

That the government recognizes
the value of candy in the diet of its
soldiers is shown by the order for
100000 worth of candy, which was
placed during July for the men at
Camp Lewis. This is among the larg-
est orders for candy ever placed by
the government for its soldiers.
1t is estimated that it will take
three months to fill the order which
was placed with two northwestern
manufacturers. and that the supply
will be sufficient. to last the five ex-
changes at Camp Lewis for a period
of three to four months.
This war has done more than any
thing else to demonstrate that candy
possesses immense food value. A sol
der. after hard days work, needs
candy. His system Graves It. Like
wise, shipyard workers, loggers, men
and women doing all kinds of heavy
work, crave candy. because it supplies
the need for something sweet to sup
ply fuel for the body Growing chill
dren require the sugar in candy to
supply them with energy.
All candy being manufactured to-
day i made with the sugar authoriz-
ed for this purpose by the national
food administration. You can patri-
otically eat the candy which you now
see on sale. If you wish to forego it,
you may send 1t to a soldier. A com

FORGOTTEN.

When we sent our husky fight
ing men across the briny sea we
sent them froth to stick it out
until the world was free; we
squirted serums into them and
we loaded them with guns. then
they hiked away to hunt Old
Bill and kill off all his sons;
they didn't stop to chew the rag,
they didn't even pause until they
caught the Vandal Beast and
clipped off all his claws. We
told our boys we'd back them
up and never would forget our
snortin' tootin' soldier men be-
yond the ocean wet; we told
them we would stay at home and
each would do his bit and while
they needed grub or guns not
one of us would quit; we told
them we would furnish them
whatever they should need and
never would our patriotism dry
up and go to seed; we told them
we would gladly buy all the War
Stamps Unc would sell while
they were rounding Hienies up
and herding them to hell--Oh,
we promised all our soldier lads
that we hoped to die and swore
an oath and bravely crossed our
heart! Then the Yankees sailed
away and landed soon in France
and we began to hear that they
were making Hindy dance. 1t
filled our souls with Joyous
mirth and made us shout with
= glee-the way they brought the
brutes to earth and set poor Bel
GUM free. We clapped our
hands and paved the air and
made lot of noise; we told the
world: Just watch 'em go! BY
= ding them's Yankee Boys!" You
bet we crowed and crowed lot
because our lads were true and
did the job up slick and clean
the way they said they'd do
but how about us folks at home?
Amt there something we've for
gotten-don't you think our rec
ord on War Stamps, to say the
least, is rotten? 1t Is up to us to
buy those Stamps and buy them
mighty quick and show our
boys that just like them us folks
at home will stick!

NEWSPAPER BUSINESS
HIT HARD BY THE WAR

Washington, Nov 16.-The Repub-
lican Publicity Association, through
its President, Hon Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., today gave out the following
statement from it's Washington
headquarters:
mo other business has been hit
harder by the war than the newspa-
per business, particularly in the
smaller. cities and country towns.
The large metropolitan papers have
probably suffered least. During 1917
more than 1900 publications went
out OF business. After making al
lowance for new papers started, it
appears that there was net loss of
81 dailies and $50 weeklies.
The mortality statistics for 1918
will probably show as great loss,
for the shortage of paper, the increas-
ing cost of all kinds of supplies, and
the higher wages, together with the
heavy call upon newspaper men for
military service. have been more Sc
we're this year than last.
And one Of the serious features
of the situation is that the people
of the country probably do not realize
that the most valuable portion Of the
press has sustained the greatest loss.
Under popular government the coun-
try press, including not only country
weeklies, but the smaller dailies, Is
the real voice Of the people. Editors
of large metropolitan papers do not
have and cannot have the
close touch with the people that is
a necessary incident of the life of the
country editor. Just as Washington.
D. c., is the poorest place in the coun-
try to get line on the political
thought OF the nation, so the big city
newspaper Office is the poorest place
to get correct picture of national
thought, either political or other
wise. The people of the United
States should realize this, and should
see to 1t that whatever else happens
the country press shall be maintain
ed.
Freedom of speech and of the
press is the first essential of Re-
publican form of government, for the
Representatives of the people cannot
know the thoughts and aspirations
and desires of their constituents un-
less voiced through the mediumship
of the local press to which they have
access either directly through tAe ed
itor's Interpretation of the views OF
his community
1.-THE country press, including the
smaller dailies, represents the pro-
ducing element OF our national life
The large metropolitan press repre-.
sents the commercial factors. Just
as production is the first essential oi
a permanent prosperity, so the main.
tenance of that portion OF the press
that speaks for the producers Is
the most important.
The metropolitan press has its
place in our national life and nobody
wishes 1t ILL., The fact remains, how
ever. that the vital interests of the
nations are most promptly and most
clearly represented and the thought
OF the people MOST freely and most
courageously voiced by the country
press. The people OF the country
may not see it now, but they will some
day realize that the large preponder-
anee of suspensions among the week.

AVERAGE y|ELDFOR
LEXINGTON INDICATE
While But Very Little Rain Visited
That Section During Showers of
Last Week, the Grain is Hold
ing Up Well.

The crop situation in the Lexing-
ton wheat belt now gives promise of
being an average yield and should
be far ahead of that of last season.
In tht early Spring the fattering out
look was for bumper crop but this
was spoiled to certain degree by the
continued dry weather. Crops have
now reached that stage of develop
ment, however, that there can be no
further damage by the continued
warm weather. In fact, there has
been marked improvement in the
prospect during the past ten days,
owing to cooler weather. 1t is noted
that the Spring grain yet maintains
a fine color and seems to be develop
ing we'll, and should rains come with
in the next week or so this will also
make a good showing. Some fields
of Early Boart are showing up fine
and will make a good yield. We look
for better than a 20-bushel crop for
the average of the Lexington section
this year.

Spoke in interests of Armenian Relief

DR., M. G, Papazian, pastor of
Congregational church in Fresno,
California and native of Armenia,
though for many years a naturalized
citizen of the United States, was in
Morrow county over Sunday and held
several different meetings in the in
terest of the Armenian Relief The
doctor spoke at lone and Lexington
during the day, and in the evening
addressed fair sized audience only,
at the Federated church. Arriving
at Heppner on Saturday evening, he
was granted the privilege of address
ing the people assembled for the NOV
les at the Star theater and thus he
was quite we'll heard by our citizen
ship.
DR.. Papazian is a very interesting
speaker. He presents the claims of
his native land for relief In this time
of her dire distress, when she is suf-
fering from the diabolical conspiracy,
invented and instigated and carried
out by the heads of the German gov
ernment in collusion with the Turkish
government, to exterminate one of
the Oldest races of people that history
gives us record of, in clear, calm
and concise manner, only referring to
few of those terrible atrocities, tnt
like Of which have never before been
perpetrated on the human family, and
then in as mild language as he was
capable of using. DR.. Papazian is a
graduate Of Yale University For
fifteen years, and just prior to the
outbreak of the war and during the
time of the early stages of the crime
committed against Armenians, he
had charge of large church in one
of the principal cities of the Ottoman
Empire, and barely escaped with his
life. He therefore knows whereof he
speaks, and for this reason his mes
sage to our people came with addi-
tional force and clearness.

About the place were found supplies
sufficient to keep the establishment
going for some time. There were
twelve bushels of cornmeal and a
quantity OF barley and rye. The
sheriff also uncovered a cache of
three small barrels Of whisky hidden
in a thicket.
The prisoners were all taken to the
county jail at Pendleton. Captain
Williams of the state police assisted
Sheriff Taylor in making the raid.
The men appeared to be making a
small fortune from their plant, ae-
cording to the story they told the
officers. They claimed to have been
making about 40 gallons a day and
selling their stuff for $50 a gallon,
the proceeds of which netted them
in the neighborhood of more than
$500 day.
They claimed to have been operat-
Ing for only about two weeks, Jarrel
and Holder both asserting that they
had been here only about that length
of time.
FARRELL says he has a wife and nine
children and was the postmaster and
owner of little store in South Caro-
lima, and that while he resigned from
the place before leaving he has never
been relieved.
He said he had not made any of the
stuff for about Is years, but went
broke in the store. He is about 80.

was within so yards or less of the
still. The pathway leading down was
hardly discernable and lost itself
often in crossing surface of rock. A
fine little spring furnished them with
water.

MRS.CHAS. THOMSON
DIED SUDDENLY

Nancy Belle Colliver, daughter of
John and Sarah Colliver, was born
February %, 1880, near LaCygne.
Kansas. She lived here until 1901,
when she went to the state of Ken
tucky where she lived two years, COM
ing from there to Morrow county
where she has since lived.
She became the wife of Charles
Thompson March IA, 1906. To them
two children were born: Ellis, aged
7, and Earl, years old. Besides her
husband and children she is survived
by her father and mother, three sis
ters. Hetta. Clara and Jenney, all liv-

brother, Tom Colliver, of Hardman.
Mrs. Thomson died suddenly at
Portland Sunday morning. June l6.
The funeral was held at the Chris
tian church, Heppner, Tuesday morn
ing at 10:30. The large attendance
at this service and the beautiful floral
tribute speak eloquently of the es-
teem in which Mrs. Thomson was
held by the people of this community,
who have themselves suffered loss
in her death and who mourn in SYM
pathy with her bereaved family. She
has been for many years member of
the Heppner Christian church, actlv,.
in her interest, and conscientiously
striving to live up to the ideals of the
Christ tian life.
