PRESIDENT WILSON RETURNS
AFTER FOUR MONTHS
ABROAD.

President Wilson returned to
Washington at midnight Sunday af-
ter an absence of four months at the
Paris peace conference. He was &C
companied by Mrs. Wilson, Miss Mar
garet Wilson and by Vice President
Marshall, and most of the members
OF his cabinet, who greeted him on
his arrival at New York.
The Presidential party was greet
ed at the station by crowd of sew
eral thousand persons who had
waited for several hours. After
brief welcoming ceremonies, the
President and Mrs. Wilson drove di-
rectly to the White House.
When the President returns to his
desk he will face what probably will
proved his busiest week in the White
House. A vast accumulation of i'm
pOrtant matters awaits his consider
alton.
The President will deal with the
subjects before him with as great
speed as possible, in order that he
may make an early start on his
speech making trip. 1t has been in
Dictated that he would like to leave
Washington about the middle of next
week.
Among matters awaiting the Pres
ident's immediate attention are bills
passed recently by Congress which
carry appropriations of more than
two billion dollars.
1t was understood that the Presi-
dent hoped to confer with members
of the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee and leading administers
ton officials.
Acting Secretary Polk probably
will be among the first to confer with
the President. Among other matters
Mr.. Polk will discuss with Mr.. Will
son the proposal that he go to Paris
to take the place of Secretary Lam
sing at the Peace Conference.
The itinerary for the Presidents
Swing around the circle" is still un
settled, and probably will remain SO
until after Mr.. Wilson goes before
the Senate to present the peace
treaty.

Mich, Daily Herald, in which ap-
pears a cartoon representing D..
Clyde Mcnamara, formerly of Paris,
as explaining the mysteries of the

NEW DEAL POSSIBLE.

THE NEWS learned yesterday
from what is considered a reliable
source that the coming of the Red
path Chautauqua to Paris next year
is among the possibilities. 1t was
stated by a business man of good
standing that enough pledges had
been secured to guarantee the ap-
pearance here of this superior attrac-
ton. The White & Myers Chautau-
qua System, which has furnished the
attractions for Paris in the past three
years, has been satisfactory, but
there seems to be a desire on the
part of many of our citizens for a
change, and the guarantees already
obtained will be amply sufficient to
bring this about.

ANARCHIST BOMB SENT TO HUS
BAND OF FORMER
PARIS GIRL.

The many friends of Mrs. Chas.
Niles McKinlay, of Leona, N. j., who
vas formerly Miss Martha Ferguson,
the handsome daughter of Mr.. and
MIS-. Volney Ferguson, of this coun-
II, will be interested and thankful
for her narrow escape from injury
from the hands of an anarchist at
her country home in New Jersey.
Following their wedding, which
took place at Arcadia" the country
home of their parents in this county,
On April 30, last, DIR. McKinlay and
his bride spent two weeks of their
honeymoon in a trip to various
Eastern cities, following which they
vent to their country home at
Leona, N. j., a suburb of New York
City. About two weeks ago Mrs. Vol
ney Ferguson, the mother of the
bride, sent as a birthday present to
her daughter, a handsome "sweet
grass" basket of delicate fibre and
handsomely made. She wrote let
ter to that effect, telling Mrs. Nc
Kinlay to be on the lookout for IT..
Failing to receive the package in due
time, Mrs. McKinlay Informed her
mother of its non-arrival. Mrs. Fer
guson wrote again, telling her the
contents of the package, that 1T was
very light and fragile, requiring only
five cents in postage, and possibly
might have been crushed and destroy
ed in transportation.
Shortly after receiving this letter
the package was delivered at the
McKinlay residence in Leona. But
instead of being light it weighed sew
eral pounds, contained twenty-five
cents in postage instead of five, and
due to the fact that the bomb out
RACES in the East had occurred only
q few days previous, DR.. McKinlay
became suspicious and was afraid to
open the package. He had it remOv-
ed to police headquarters, where up
on being opened by an expert, 1t
was found to contain, besides the
present, a deadly bomb. The matter
was placed in the hands Of Govern
nent authorities, and is being inves-
tigated.
DIR. and Mrs. McKinlay are at a
loss for a reason which would cause
any one to make this attempt on
their lives. The only suggestion
which has been offered is that be-
fore his marriage, DIR. McKinlay was
the private physician for a wealthy
New York family, the head Of which,
1t is said, is prominently connected
with the Standard Oil Company. The
fact that DR.. McKinlay was frequnt-
ly seen with members Of this family
may have caused some person with
anarchistic tendencies to attempt to
wreak his vengeance upon him and
his bride.

WHEAT CROP SAID TO BE SOME
WHAT DISAPPOINTING.

A prominent Bourbon county farm
er stated yesterday that 1t was his
opinion that the wheat crop in this
county would prove very disappoint-
ing, and that he had heard that some
of the threshermen are preparing to
store their machines and quit work.
They declare that there is not enough
grain in the wheat to repay them for
their labor. Bourbon county farmers
raised more wheat this season than
ever before and the yield promised to
be the largest in the history of the
county. This is considered the best
wheat section in the State. The con-
dition of the crop is due mainly to
the severely wet month Of May. 1t Is
thought by the growers.

aoRRow COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
MAKE OUR VISITORS AT HOME.

Hundreds Of the visitors to the
county fair this week must neces-
sarily be taken into the homes of the
people of the city Of Heppner if they
are to be greeted and treated as
guests should be. This is made all
the more necessary because we are
still without a hotel. The rooming
houses of the town are filed to ca
pacity in normal times. The manner
in which the residents have thrown
open their homes and have listed
rooms with the Fair Board is indeed
commendable, and above the COM
mercial aspect our good citizens are
acting upon the theory that they as
individuals have a personal interest
in making the fair big success.
The fair will not be a success in
every sense of the word if a large
number Of our visitors are forced to
walk the streets nights, because they
are unable to find a bed. If YOU have
not yet listed that spare room with
the Secretary of the Fair Board, do
so at once.

"PRO-GERMANS ARE WITH
US YET.'-WlLSON.

Speaking at Sioux City, N. D., on
Monday, President Wilson, who is
now on a speaking tour around the
circuit" declared that Pro-German-
sim had again lifted its head in this
country. He continued:
Il want to tell you that within the
last two weeks tire pro-German ele
ment in the United States again has
lifted its head"
This element saw chance, he
said, by keeping their nation out of
the league Of nations, to make pos
sible again what Germany had tried
to do in the great war. 1t was
clean-cut issue, Mr.. Wilson declared,
between this new order or the old
German order.
Declaring the peace treaty provis-
ion for an international labor con-
ference would give labor a new bill
of rights, the president declared the
treaty was "a laboring mans treaty"
in the sense that it was treaty
drawn up for the benefit Of the COM
mon people.
The problems themselves, said the
president, were made for the peoples
concerned. He asserted that the
document laid down forever the
| principle that no territory ever
should be governed except as the
people who lived there wanted it
governed.
That is an absolute reversal Of
history" said the president, and it
is all in the league Of nations"
High taxes, large standing army
and military government in spirit"
would be required, he said, if the
United States were to follow the ad-
vice of some men "and stand by her
self"
Asking his hearers to suppose for
a moment that the land titles Of
South Dakota were to be upset and
every farm line moved ten feet, Mr..
Wilson said that something like that
had happened in Europe and a CEN
tral authority was necessary to sta
bilize conditions and prevent strife.
"Your choice" said Mr.. Wilson,
is between the league Of nations
and Germanism. have told you
what mean by Germanism-hav-
ing chip on your shoulders"
When the president added that
sometimes he had been called an
idealist," some shouted Good" and
the crowd cheered.
The certain way" to have trouble
between capital and labor, said the
president, was for them TO refuse to
discuss their differences. He said
he could not understand how man
could refuse to discuss his case un-
LESS he was wrong. The same rule,
he declared, applied to differences
between nations.
America could stay out Of the
league OF nations, said the president,
but it would be at the expense Of the
peace OF the world.
America is necessary" he added
TO the peace Of the world And the
peace and confidence Of the world
are necessary to America"

Students of after-the-war condi-
tions will now puzzle their brains
for a reason why hat manufacturers
are receiving orders for increased
proportions Of hats Of larger sizes.
The man wearing a headpiece Of
size 7 or over used to be credited
with more than the average brains,
but now the majority of hats ordered
are 7 or bigger, with a tendency
toward M that is nothing short Of
amazing. Still, we are inclined to
scout the theory that gunfire, or
something else, caused our soldiers'
heads to expand little all around,
and the established fact that men
leaving the hospital suffering from
shellshock cannot wear the hats they
wore when they went in is capable of
another explanation. 1t is probably
true that soldiers acquired the habit
of insisting on the "easy fit" and
particularly on a hat big enough so
that it would not blow off. After the
army cap, the stiff hat seems too
small, so large size is ordered.
Our heads are probably about the
same size they we're before the war.

CORRUPTING THE DOG.

We saw proud dog the other day.
He was all dolled up with a blan-
ket, and his hair was all fluffy, and
he had a large brass collar on.
He was seated on the front seat of
big blue Sedan, and no ebony
coachman, in green livery with a
seven-foot whip, ever pointed his
prideful nose any higher than did
this dog.
For this dog was an English set
ter.
He belonged out on the marshes,
trailing after his master.
He belonged in the brush thickets,
getting his hide full of burs and his
mouth full of feathers.
That dog was created to smell out
upland game birds, to point them out,
to go gather them from thicket and
ravine, when the old twelve-gauge
banged its right and left.
In his place that dog would be
about the finest object that designs
to associate with man.
All dressed up, squatted on a vel
vet red seat, he is nothing but a
sham, a waste of good dog flesh and
sense.
But you know, the day of the game
dog is about gone. There is no
more game in the old sense.
A few years ago almost every live
man had his setter, his water spaniel,
or his pointer. And the love and TN
derstanding between these men and
their dogs was thing beautiful tc
see.
But the closed season is on, the
private preserve has most Of the
game that's left; the average mar
has no use for a bird dog, and in q
few years the few pointers and set
tiers you will see will be house pets
a sort of poodle; toy dogs.
Which is an awful fate for any
worth while canine.
