HITS SIBERIAN SOLDERING


PUnable to longer withstand the
pressure of public opinion against the
retention of American soldiers in ST.
IBERIA, in spite of the strenuous efforts
of the administration and the demand
of the president to keep them there
the democrats of the house have
voiced their determination to vote
with the republicans in having them
all brought back without delay.
Representative Mason, of Illinois,
declared that the presidents attitude
was entirely unconstitutional, due TO
the fact that the United States is not
at war with Russia, and would indi-
cate that he might be trying to make
himself king instead of a chief cXecu-
tive subject to the check of the legis-
lative branch of the government.
Congress should not permit this, >
he declared. "These American SOL
diers should not be kept in Russia.
They were never intended to serve
any such purpose. They ought to be
brought back home. They are starv-
ing to death and are being used as
policemen and laborers. The war de-
partment is making our men watch
men in Silesia and scavengers in ST.
IBERIA. If the presidents son-in-law
were there with the Y NJ. C. A. he
would be recalled"

MUST NOT KILL ELK

Hunters who were out in the
mountains between here and Ellens-
burg recently report having seen a
herd of elk near the summit. These
are supposed to be some of the elk
grown and released by Kittitas county
several years ago. In the herd were
several calves which resemble deer at
a distance. Hunters are warned
against shooting at these elk by mis-
take for deer, as there is heavy SEN
tence for shooting an elk in this state

CARRY SOLDIER POLICIES

Carrying by the government of the
war risk policies of all soldiers, sail
ors, marines and nurses for a period
of two years without expense to them
is proposed by Representative McCul-
loch, of Ohio, in an amendment to the
war risk bill.
"First, he told the house, there is
"a moral obligation on the part of the
govern ment to continue this insurance
for a reasonable time in order to per-
nit the soldier to readjust himself
and get his affairs in such condition
that he can afford to meet the pre-
miums on the insurance and car
~ it. The war risk insurance
was conceived as much, if not more,
for the purpose of protecting the gov
eminent as the soldier. All those in
the service were practically required
to take war risk insurance. Now the
soldier is dropped from the payroll.
He is in many cases in poor health,
out of employment, with dependents
to support, and an array of various
and varying conditions confronting
them. AS a result 80 per cent have
dropped their insurance. The amend
ment | propose will give the War Risk
Bureau time to readjust itself and it
will give the soldier chance to get
established in business or profession
and carry his policy if he sees fit to do
So"

A Story for Apple Growers

Two piles of apples lay on the
ground. One contained a large sized
and rosy selections; the fruit of the
other was green and small.
Large on top, sir, and small at the
bottom ?" inquired the new assistant
of his master, as he prepared to fill
a barrel.
Certainly not, replied the farmer,
virtuously. Honesty is the best pol
icy, my boy. Put the little apples at
the top, and the large ones at the bot

The assistant complied. His master
was evidently as green as his greenest
fruit.
as the barrel full, my lad, asked
the farmer.
"Yes," answered the assistant.
"Good," said the farmer, "Now
turn it upside down and label it!"-

RULINGS OF GAME WARDEN

the Attorney general of Washington
to State Game Commissioner Darwin,

specifically provided for by legisla-

sions, however, have right to short
en- open or close season where this
right has been provided by legislative
enactment.

HUNDRED MILLION WAR SAY
INGS STAMPS SOLD

The total sales of War Savings
Stamps thruout the United States for
the first seven months of 1919
amounted to nearly $100,000,000 ac-
cording to a report made by the Saw
ings Division of the treasury depart
ment. The exact figure is $95 AGO.
470.21. This makes per capita in
vestment of about ninety cents where
as the government at the beginning Of
the year asked a per capita purchase
of $40 worth of War Stamps in order
to meet war debts.
"The saving Of nearly $100,000,000
in seven months is concrete proof that
the governments thrift campaign is
checking eXtravagant expenditures, F."
the report says. Checking OF eX-
travagant buying is the only remedy
for high prices Saving $100,0G0,000
simply means cutting down demand
by s100,0OO000 and turning the
money to much needed ,~-''uction Of
necessities"
Leading economists of the country
have said there is no hope of lower
prices until the people understand
generally that they must stop buying
things thaht are not necessary and
they have endorsed the United States
Government War Savings Stamps
campaign as the most effective rem
edy to that end.
