A Duty of Citizenship

Citizenship brings to all of us du-
ties as well as blessings, and it will
not do any of us any harm if once
in awhile we take stock of ourselves
and balance our activities against our
apathy in matters Of public concern,
Only in this way can We measure up,
as We should, each year a little near
er to the standard of sound Ameri-
caniSm.
We are going to talk very frankly
on one subject for a few weeks and
it will be a pleasure to receive from
time to time expressions from our
readers on what we have to say,
Their thought will guide us, More
over, it will diSarm those who may
be disposed to criticize us as sound
ing a selfish note.
Every person in this and every
other community should give some
thought to the suggestion that adver-
tiSing be established as a regular
and legitimate part of the govern
.ment functioning Those who study
the question of government adver-
tiSing will soon realize it to be the
plain duty of every good citizen to
play his little part in bringing its
importance and necessity before the
recognized authorities, because it is
of first importance to the people.
Let it be understood at the outset
we are not advocating government
advertising with any thought of the
small amount of revenue it might
bring to this newspaper. The record
of every country publisher who gave
away hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth of space during the war
without thought of fee or reward
should be a sufficient refutation of
such thought This newspaper
wants to see government advertising
established because of the immeas-
urable benefit it can be to our farm
ers, because it can be made to save
thousands Of lives every year and
millions of dollars for the people.
The first thought the public should
digest is this Government is not
something apart Government is the
will of the people. The funds of
the government are supplied by the
people to be spent in the interest
of the people.

County Division

History has shown that there are
instances in the progress Of this
country where county division was
the proper procedure There have
been other instances where one big
county split made a lOoSing game
for both the old county and its newer
offspring, Where the country is
SparSek settled and the land not
highly productive, in the main, it
would appear evident that the one
big county would stand a better
chance for existence than two small
er ones maintaining two separate
governments.
The case in point is that of Grant
county. Grant is one of the larger
counties of Oregon Canyon City,
which is the county seat, is situated
in the extreme southern part. Now
the people of northern Grant are
clamoring for a county by them
selves, as we view it, their main con-
tention being that they are too far
removed from the seat of govern
ment, that poor roads make getting
to the county seat a tedious journey
and that anyway, the county is too
large as it is and should be divided.
Hence a move has started which
results in county division measure
on the ballot. While il is no concern
of ours, ANYMORE than we are great
! " interested in the welfare and hap
pineSS of our sister county on the
south, the situation presents some
features which may not be altogether
unlike an ultimate scrap for county
division coming out of the north end
| of Morrow county and the west of
Umatilla.
In Grant county, the Blue Noun
tain Eagle contends that the new
county would start off with a debt
| of Sl50,000, for there is already an
authorized bond issue of $4,000
and in addition TO this the cost of
division would approximate $4,000.
With this bad start the assessed val
lie of taxable land would be less
than S4,000,000 upon which will
have to be raised at least 100000
annually AS it is now, the assessed
value Of the property is nearly eight
and one half million and the taxes
raised are Sl60,000. The Eagle
points out that this will not double
the tax but will come so near it that
somebody will do some squirming.
Good highways from one end of
the county to the other, making quick
and easy transportation facilities

Who Will Teach Your Boys
and Girls Next Year?

A republican form of government
is founded upon the principle that
all of the people are intelligent,
Schools are established to educate
the children of all the people 50 that
they may carry on the government
efficiently That the schools may
perform this function as they should
il is absolutely necessary that the
teaching staff be kept up to the high
est possible standard.
A dangerous crisis faces the
schools at the present time. Many
of our teachers are securing various
kinds of work for the summer al
salaries of a $4,000 per month OF
more. At the end of the summer
vaction a number Of these teachers
will glance at the S75-S90 salary
out there in the country school dis
trict with all the inconvenience of
boarding IN the country and decide
10 stay with their more lucrative po-
sition. This will help to cause a
greater shortage of teachers.
Therefore, it behooveS us TO sup
port the Elementary Educational
Bill which will provide additional
funds for every public school in the
state.

Thrift. The one great element of
success is embodied in that little
word of six letters. All through the
war the United States government
preached the doctrine Of thrift and
it was adhered to by large number
of people, who put their savings into
stamps. The government is still
preaching thrift but the gospel
seems now to fall upon unhearing
ears. The country at large seems to
have gone stark mad on an orgy Of
extravaganza wasteful spending. The
drunken sailor, in his palmest days,
had nothing on this spend-thrifty
nation. But sober moments are
coming. Statesmen are not pre-
dieting a revolution, but a reaction.
Prices will drop. Economic condi-
tions will shine forth in their true
light and it will take a steady hand
to soothe the rocking boat. More
production and less extravaganza
will save the day

One of the conditions Of the peace
treaty was that the former kaiser
and his son, the eX-crown prince,
along with a thousand other viola
tors of the rules of warfare, should
be turned over to an allied commits
sion for trial. Holland refuses to
deliver the former emperor over to
the allies and Germany is steadfast
in her refusal to bring the high-ups
to justice, saying that it would cause
a revolution in the fatherland and
bring about such a rotten economic
condition that they would be unable
to pay the indemnity due the allies,
Anyway you look at it you can see
the fox has lost none of its former
cunning

No Bolshevism Wanted

The Oregon Journal is iudulging
IN something that sounds like propa-
gania for the Non-PartiSsn League.
Ii NAV not be intended as such, but
it certainly has the ear marks,
Friends of the Journal fear it is get
ting close to questionable company.
The Non-Partisan League did not
enjoy a good war record. Its leader,
Mr.. Townley, was indicted BY a fed
eral grand jury for diSloyal talk.
There is sworn testimony of inAam-
matOry and revolutionary talk BY
league organizers in the state of
Washington during the war. There
was a grange meeting in Walla Wal
la during which utteranceS of such
radical character were made BY a
league advocate that the school
board, backed up BY representative
farmers and businessmen ouSted the
meeting from the high school audit
orium. So incenSed were the citi-
zenS of Walla Walla, farming town
that the organization could find no
hall or church in which TO continue
its sessions.
If this newspaper understands the
Non Partisan League its purpose is
bolSheviSm in the profesSed behalf
of the farmer, 1t is a misguided
move which no farmer can afford
to sanction. Carried to its logical
conclusion it would mean diSposSeS-
sion of the farmer and conhScation
of his property. The farmer of all
men must beware of class rule. He
will be the chief victim if bolShevism
comes.
If marketing conditions are to be
improved the remedy lies not in the
methods of Townley or Trotsky or
Lenin. Competition will provide the
key, If grain buying is profitable
business, farmers may enter that
business whenever they wish Some
of them are now engaged in this
business. If they wish to go into the
milling business or the warehouse
business they may do so. Some of
them already have flour mills. The
field is always open, If they want
to enter the mercantile business
there is nothing to prevent unless it
be the fact that farming is usually
more profitable.
1t is not fair to berate business
men because the problems of the
farmer have not all been solved
We all have unsolved problems to
face. 1t is dangerous to incite pre-
judice and to preach class govern
ment. Ii might be possible with
sufficient effort to get the state
drunk on this stuff but sooner or la
ter Oregon would wake up with a
headache.
Surely the Journal with its great
record of service, is not going to
champion the Non Partisan League.
Let it be hoped its purpose is an eX-
pose of the league and not support
-Pendleton East Oregonian.
