LIBERTY BOND sLASHiNG

Washington, May 2l.--,rhe Urea
sury Department appeals to the press
Of the United States to aid n improV-
: ing the Liberty bond situation by
carrying in their columns statement
as to the intrinsic value Of the bonds
and their present prices. The state
,nent explained the reasons for the
present bond prices and suggested
methods for their improvement.
Referring to the slump in market
quotations for Liberty Bonds, the
statement said sine price has been
brought down because so many p2o-
pie are offering to sell their bonds. :
IF the market. is flooded with to-
matoes,"" the statement added, you
can buy them cheap, but if everyone
is clamoring for tomatoes and there
are few 70 be had, the price goes up.
The same is true Of Liberty bonds.
Short-sighted people are dumping
them on the market and wise ones
are buying them"
The Treasury advised holding on 70
the bonds bought during the war and
the buying as many more at the pre-
sent low rate as could be afforded,
for in the latter case the purchaser
will not only receive the regular in
terest, but make clear profit Of the
difference between present prices and
the face value of the bonds.

The American men and women

and all our food is rich. Our blood

Pullman Lost Formulation.

Pullman, like many other Whit
man county towns, lost population in
the 10 years from 1910 to 1920. The
census figures give Pullman 2,44C
population in 1920 as compared with
1902 in 1910, net loss of 1862. The
Pullman chamber of commerce is
making a serious "kick" over the re-
port and claims the 1920 census was
not properly taken. The fact is that
Pullman, like Spokane, padded" the
1910 census SO much that even if
there has been an actual gain since
then, it would not show if correct
census was taken this year.

THE WALL STREET OUTRAGE

w
The outrage perpetrated by anar
chists in New York, in which the live
of SO persons were sacrificed, 200 in
jured and millions of dollars worth 0
property destroyed by a bomb, de
serves the severest punishment con
ceivable. There can be no temper
rizing with such dastardly brutes VIII,
are wholly devoid of all human in
stincts. They should be killed as rat
tlesnakes and mad dogs are killed
not for revenge, but for the protection
of others whose lives are worth some
thing =
1t is about time the American people
were waking up to the need of law
enforcement. While few cranks are
money to bowling about the enforce
ment of prohibition and other laws of
minor Importance, laws that affect
the we'll being of the entire republic
are not being enforced. We have laws
against anarchy, sedition and such
crimes, but our officers and polite
ians are too cowardly to enforce them.
They fear to lose the American,
Italio-American, British-American, or
some other hyphenated vote if they
stand for Americanism without any
hyphen. Unless the real Americans,
those who have no hyphen in their
nationality, organize and make the
politicians respect the American voter
before any hiphenated voter, we will
never have the respect for American
ism to which we are entitled.
We suppose if the anarchists who
blew up the Wall street section and
killed 36 and injured 200 others are
arrested and sent to prison certain
labor unions will demand their re-
lease and claim their arrest is a per-
secution of labor. Had Mooney, who |
perpetrated the San Francisco pre-
paredness day" outrage, which killed |
IL persons and injured many others
by the explosion of bomb been
promptly hanged, it would probably
have deferred the other anarchists
from perpetrating such outrages.
1t is hoped that the officers will
make arrests and that prompt and Wig
orous prosecution of the criminals and
swift punishment will follow. There
can be no temporizing with such
brutes.
Complaint is made that the ordi-
nance forbidding splitting on the side !!
walks is being violated to such an
extent that in many places where men /
the sidewalks are filthy.
There is an ordinance against expec-
