It is very evident that the main
issue in the coming campaign for con-
gressmen will be loyalty. That being
the case Senator Sterling, whose rec
ord for loyalty is without a blot,
should have no trouble in securing re-
election. For congressman in. the
FIRST district the contest will be be-
tween Christopherson on the republl-
can ticket and Dowdell on the demo.
cratic ticket. No one has ever ques-
toned the loyalty Of Christopherso.,
but the record of Dowdell will come
far short of measuring up to an &C
ceptable standard. He was member
of the last state senate. and on Feb.
ruary 16. 1917 introduced and strong.
ly urged the adoption Of Senate Joint
Resolution No. IL which was me.
mortal to congress asking that ar
amendment to the constitution Of the
United States be submitted, such a.
mendment to take away from congress
the right to declare war. It is quite
generally known that Mr.. Dowdell's
pet hobby at Pierre during the session
was that vote should be taken wheth.
er or not this country should go int
war. Two records should be kept, il
the one should be included all those
in favor of the war, and in the other
those opposed to war. Then should
those wanting war be in the majority
and war be declared, those voting il
favor of the war should be called upor
to serve in the army. No grand stane
play Of loyalty now can blind the eyes
Of the voters to such record made Al
time when loyalty was most needed.

GIRL WAR WORKERS GOING HOME.
Army of 100000 in Washington Is Being
Gradually Dem0bilized.

disqualification of women war workers
is being accomplished in truly democratic
American fashion.
The little girl in nearby government
office or distant knitting mill holds the
attention of the lords of the war depart
ment. Contracts are cancelled or eontin-
ued that the girl war workers may be
assured chance to live. From each
state in the union, men and women who
represent the government are telegraph
ing to Washington reports on the indus
trial situations in their communities so
that she may be protected. The great
womens organizations, which in the
early months of 1917 began to seek the
women for war service, are now reaching
back through their membership of more
than 100000 women, to assure due
recognition for this same war worker as
she goes home from task we'll done.
Justice in the shape of recommendations
for adequate notice and extra salary
when she leaves government service hold
the attention of a cabinet meeting while
questions of world policy wait. A bill
has been introduced into Congress to sup
ply transportation, on the same basis as
that furnished demobilized soldiers, for
the army of 100000 women who have
come from the four corners of America
to serve their country in Washington.
The story happily lacks the melodra-
matte quality of an eleventh hour rescue.
There are two reasons-Uncle Sam, off.
cially and personally, has recognized the
debt he owes to the 100000 or more
women already in war work and the mil
lions of others who were willing to put
aside personal interests to undertake war
production. Such men as Bernard Ba.
Tuch, who recently offered transportation
from his own pocket to all women eav-
ing the war industries board, of which
he was member, are a guarantee that
the public would sooner or later have
recognized and demanded adequate con.
sideration for our women war workers.
The second reason which explains the
happy absence of anxiety among wage
earning women at this time lies in the
immediate action of the department of
labor. The nation wide machinery, built
up by this agency of the government for
war recruiting within the last nine
months, has recognized women in pro-
portion to their number, on an equality
with men.
In the councils held daily by the war
production section of the war and navy
departments, the war industries board
and the labor department women are, in
the words of the suffragists, lust ''peo-

Waving all minor questions of con-

the probable cost Of the yard will be

must be due TO some fundamental mis-.

superyening condition, including enlarge

operation, or to combination of these
factors. A discrepancy of such msgni-
tude would seem to call for clear ex-
PLANTATION from the agent, but this has
not been furnished.
considerable effort has been made by
the agent in the hearings to sultify

reaus. Committees of the farm bureaus
in regions where hay was scarce went
into neighboring localities where it was
more plentiful and did the actual buying.
In this way the county agents Of several
counties assisted the farmers TO purchase
as high as 1900 tons, and through CO.
operative buying were able to save the
purchaser an average of $4.25 ton. A
large part of the hay was shipped from
Yakima, Benton, Kittitas and Walla
