SOLDIERS IN FRANCE GIVEN
 4 BANK BOOK

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMIES N FRANCE, Aug. 2.-Every Amer can soldier in France will receive bank hook" enabling him to draw 57.50 a month from any diSbursing officer, if the change in pay methods of the American Expcditionary Force now under considerations is put into fleet. The purpose is to enable every soldier to sbtain. promptly at least a part of his monthly pay regardless of where he may be, whether in hos pital or with some organization other than his own.
 The pay book system is in use in the British Army. The sum of S7.50 9 month has been fixed as the min mum which a soldier should have for his personal wants every month and it would be given to him on his de- mand.
 Each three or four months there Would be a general accounting, at which his total pay, his insurance and other allotments, his liberty loan sub scriptions and other items would be east up, together with his monthly drafts. The balance then due him would be put at his disposal.
 The soldier would have the advant- ace of being able at all times and un- der all circumstances to draw some thing from any Quartelmaster in whose district he might find himself.
 The proposed system would elim- mate the present necessity of having on hand each soldiers service record whenever he draws any money. The service record system, designed for times of peace, does not take into ae- count the frequent shifts which all military men must be prepared for. In many instances nowadays it works harGships on individual men who are transferred faster than their service records can follow them and who con Sequently cannot draw their money when it is due merely because the folmalities cannot be complied with.
 The proposed new system appeals

er ways is strengthening itself for
the impending ordeal. It should not
it must not, be as considerate and
temporizing now as it was in peace
time in dealing with an organization
that is avowedly out for revolution
and confscation.
People who conjure timid fears
when the government acts with firm
ness and courage in dealing with an
organization that is pro-German in its
objects but alarm themselves at sha-
dows while remaining unconscious of
real dangers. Prussian militarism,
with its deep, ruthless, long matured
design of world conquest, is the real
menace to American liberties, not
steps wisely taken in self-preserva-
tion to make the nation powerful and
efficient in the approaching grapple.
Washington had to deal with dis
loyal resistance and insurrection, and
did not finch from his task of putting
the disorderly elements under mill
tary surveillance.
Lincoln found it necessary, again
and again, to use the military arm OF
the Union to put down disloyal move
ments. They we're assailed with bit
ter vituperation, were criticized by
persons of no vision and faint patriot
ic spirit, but they knew their duty
and performed it-WaShington to
found the Union and Lincoln to pre-
serve it. They disregarded hair-split-
ting sophistries and dealt resolutely
and sagaciously with realities, and
the nation blesses their memory and
worships their heroic personality.
We have now to deal with an in
sidious disloyal element that is mis-
leading large numbers of ignorant
followers. These false and seditious
leaders incite hatred of the flag, con-
tempt for the government and dlsre-
spect for the laws and the courts.
They grow bolder from official mac
tion, and beyond question would
paralyze the nation and foster condl-
tjons that would lead to the defeat
of our armies and the triumph OF
Prussian autocracy.
Not even Russia S ruin can impress
them with their folly, and they would
eagerly throw this country into SINH
lar chaos. Military surveillance, and
if need be a military grip upon their
ringleaders, alone can sober them
and give them to understand that the
American people do not fear them
and know how to deal with their dis
loval Observation-Disclosures Re-

E. Tuttle of Portland.

E. Tuttle of Portland.
Believing the charges as made by
the Herald serious, whether true or
not, led to an investigation by the
Gazette-Times. Some of the facts
we CLEANED were as follows:
/. Mr.. Tuttle arrived in Heppner
Wednesday evening and did not tran
sact any business the same evening
of his arrival in town, mainly for the
reason that his blanks. which were to
come by mail. did not get here until
the next evening.
2. Few farmers and stockmen call
ed at the court house on Thursday,
and during that time the agent was
visited by two men, both of them at
torneys. One of these attorneys at
tempted TO tell Mr.. Tuttle how the
governments business, regarding In
come tax matters. should be opera
ted. The attorney was advised that
his manner was offensive, arrogant
and domineering and If he could not
be courteous and gentlemanly he
could stay away.
8. Friday morning the business
men, stock men and farmers began
70 come in with their reports. The
Herald goes, or is supposed to go to
press on that same morning. Here
in lies the fallacy of the Herald's S
charges. We're they true, how were
they CLEANED in advance? But they
were not true as we shall proceed to
show.
4. The Herald did not interview
Mr. Tuttle previous to making its
1harges, in fact, they had not met un-
ii after the charges came out in
print.
The whole text was so evidently
inspired, the presumption is that the
attorney had become aggrieved when
We learned that Mr.. Tuttle, and not
the attorney, was running the gov
ernment's business. But the Herald
editor fastened to assure the tax man
that the whole thing was in type be-
fore the attorney ever said a word to
him. This was in fact an admission
hat the Herald editor and the attor-
ney had talked the matter over in
that short time after the incident at
the court house and up to the period
Immediately after the paper was of
the press.
But it is not question of what
controversy may have taken place be-
tween Mr. Tuttle and the attorney.
The outstanding fact remains that
the Herald, whether inspired or unin
eDired, attempted an injustice to Mr..
Tuttle. In the name of fair play the
Gazette-Times also learned the fol-
lowing, from its own investigation.
Out of fourteen farmers, stockmen
and business men who had dealings
with Mr.. Tuttle, everyone of them
found him to be of an amniable dis
position, treating them with the ut
most courtesy and of very valuable
assistance in making the tax reports.
We also learned that certain business
men have realized the attempt to in
jure Mr.. Tuttle and have written per-
sonal letters to Milton A. Miller, tax
collector of internal revenue at Port
land to that effect.
