Time or Places

Railroad travelling is Of two kinds :
FIRST, that in which YOU watch the
clock to see how much longer it will
be until YOU reach your destination ;
second, where your interest eenterS
on the things passing by your kaleid-
oScope window.
The first is tireSome, undressing
The second recreation and enjoy
ment.
LIES pullman is also peopled by
the same two classes of individuals.
Those who have their eyes and
their mind set on the goal they hope
to reach some day, but fail to appre-
ciate the opportunities that fly by the
window of their soul every day.
Then there are the lovable, sue
ceSSful folks who take an interest in
life as it comes. They do the things
that are brought to their notice and
before they realize it they have come
to the top of the ladder. One is wish
ing, The other working.

FRS, ana foremost has got to be
fought out the problem as to whether
the Constitution of the United States,
protecting the right Of the individual
to make material progress, to aocu-
mulate and to save, is to be protect
ed.
The first reform necessary is to
PUT behind the flag at every school
house the Constitution of the United
States. There should never be a
graduation certificate or a diploma
issued to a West Point cadet, a state
university student, a high school
scholar or a grammar school pupil
who has not passed an examination
and shown his knowledge of the
meaning Of the Constitution of the
United States and its representative
form of government.
In the political agitation that has
gone on, it seems almost to have
been forgotten that great as is the
Constitution of the United States, its
greatness consists in the freedom it
gives to individual enterprise and for
combinations of enterprise and CAPT
tai; the protection it gives to individ-
ual investors, and the stimulus it fur
niSheS to individual initiative.
U. S. spells not only "combina-
ton" but wealth and independence
as the reward for business enterprise
which enlarges output, improves
quality and reduces prices.
1t is thus that here the people are
better and more abundantly fed and
clothed, and let it never be forgotten
that labor consumes more than 90
percent Of what il produces.-Grant
County Journal.

Isn't It Awful?

We have been reading the London
Nation, the New York Nation and the
New Republic pretty attentively for
a year-that is, every week-and we
find that there is nothing right in the
world.
This will be surprising to many
readers of these lines who proSpered
fairly we'll during the year just pass
ed, who had plenty to eat and wear,
comfortable homes and pleasant ac-
quaintanceS, and who had many an
ENJOYABLE time in 1919, winding up
with a merry Christmas and a happy
New Year.
The two Nations referred to and
the New Republic know better-you
we're previously wronged; you were
Foully oppressed, and you have just
managed to survive this life of hor-
rorS. Wake up, you down-trodden
fool, and revolute.
Perhaps you do not read the three
magazines referred to-maybe you
don't even know them. Well, they are
lit'ry magazines, issued weekly, and
you can't afford to be without them
if you are a crouch or a Jobs COM
forter. Read them carefully and you
will find no good word for anybody
who does anything in the world; on
ly criticism for everybody and every
thing from President Wilson, Lloyd
George and Sam Gompers down to
Bill Jones and the constable. And
how they do view with alarm" Oh
boy!
But wait. That's not quite true.
They DO see everything good in Rus
sian Bolshevism, Notwithstanding
half the people of Russia are at this
moment pretty near as close to death
from starvation and freezing as hui
man people can get without passing
away. Your two Nations and New
Republic are the best little apologiSts
for Bolshevism that ever popped ar
ound the corner, thereby getting their
journals quoted in many Bolsheviki
organs and thereby also persuading
many a dollar across their subscrip-
ton counters.
Our observations are, however,
that they are not getting very far
with their denunciations of every
thing on earth or their propaganda
for Bolshevism. The people Of the
United States and England will have
nothing of communion and as for the
viewing with alarm stuff they are
making too much of a Wolf! Wolff
game Of it.

Heppner Was Bawled Out

When S, H, Boardmau of Board
man answered present for Hepp-
ner at the recent meeting of the lrri-
CATION Congress in Portland, Hepp-
ner received one Of the most humili-
atlng 'RaSpberrieS' that ever was
the misfortune of any town to re-
ceiye. In other words, we were
'bawled out if that slang phrase
may be used in this connection, Ac-
cording to representatives of the
John Day District, who were present,
the secretary said, You, a Boardman
man, representing Heppner, why
what's the matter with Heppner?"
That is just the question, What
is the matter with Heppner?" Prob.
ably Mr., Boardman was just as capa-
Bile of representing Heppner insofar
as that particular meeting was con-
cerned, as any Of our local men
would have been, but the outside
world does not view such matters in
that light. And Heppner should have
had her representative there. Let
us hope that we will profit by past
mistakes and not soon put ourselves
in a position for such a public "bawl-
ing out" as we received at that meet
ing in Portland the other day.

The John Day Irrigation project
received the unanimous endorsement
of the Irrigation Congress in Portland
last week. BY virtue of its being the
largest project in the West at the
present time, is bound to gain and
hold the attention Of the government
and its success is practically assured.

1t is encouraging to note the fact
that lots in the burned district are be-
ing bought by people who intend to
erect modern homes. There is no
reason why that particular part Of
Heppner should fail to become a cen
ter Of beautiful homes. We predict
that once building starts, there will
be a general move on the part OF
property owners there to rebuild.

The early history of the Northwest
shows that Old Fort Benton, where
Fort Benton City, Montana, now
stands, at the head of navigation on
the Missouri river, played an impor-
tant part in the development of this
particular part of our country. For
years, Fort Benton was a distribut-
ing center for a large territory. The
old buildings are still intact at the
fort and the following eulogizing
lines have immortalized Old Fort
Benton, by Thomas Murray Spencer,
the Oregon-Montana poet, who sells
cigars for Mason-Ehrman Company
of Portland.
THE OLD FORT"
Old Missouri! Can you tell me?
As thy younger waters pass,
Silent as the Old Fort yonder,
Now a grim and crumbling mass.
Tell me of its brave defenders,
OF its traders, trappers, braves;
Man the loop-holes with its heroes,
Rouse the warriors from their
graves.
Let the incense of some battle
Hover Ger the silent tomb,
And the war-whoop shrilly sounding,
Mingle with the lannon's boom.
Though its glory has departed,
And its crumbling walls decay,
History throws a halo around it
That shall never fade away.

The argument that the public
representatives on the labor board
will be prejudiced against labor be-

to be overcome by selecting such
public representatives as cannot be
charged with any such prcjudices.
Nor do ! anticipate that the public
representatives will be against wage

Increases. Not only must public rep
resentatives be selected who can be
relied upon to do justice. but the bill

tell to future generationh of a battle
won, and of a bond of love between
two great nations that will hold until
the end of time
Frederick MacMonnies, who will
create the great statue, remained in
France and turned over his studio near
the Marine as a hospital for French
soldiers who he aided in every way
His work is well known in France and
he is said to be peculiarly able to in
terpret the friendship of America and
her admiration for tht heroic spirit of
France.
The offer of this memorial to the
French has received the highest official
sanction of the French republic and
the tender has been accepted with
many expressions of gratitude. In or
der that the statue may be in truth
the gift of all America. it is thought
best that the funds come from Ameri
cans in every walk of life.

AMERICA s GIFT
TORRANCE WILL
BE HUGE STATUE
Governor Says Children of
State Will Be Responsible
For Arizona's Quota to
Marine Memorial Fund.

Governor Campbell has appointed c.
o. Case to be chairman of a state wide
drive for a fund being raised by the
individual states for the great memorial
statue which is to be Americas gift to
France in appreciation of the heroic
defense of civilization by the French
at the battle of the Marine.
The cost of Americas gift Will be
$3.50. 900, and each state has it's allotted
quota The drive for Arizona's quota
will be held April IL to IL inclusive.
The Marine memorial statue was de-
signed by Frederick MacMonnies, the
noted sculptor, and will be placed at
Meaux. on the Marine, where the first
great battle. described by many as the
decisive battle of the war, stemmed
the German tide. The exact site of the
memorial will be selected by Marshals
Joffre and Foch. 1t was Joffre who
commanded the French at the first
battle of the Marine.
The governor, who is honorary
chairman of the drive in this state.
tsaid yesterday that while the plan of
1.-THE campaign provides for the dona-
ttions of the general public, it had been

Ichildren of the state.
Mr.. Case is sending a notice of the
campaign to all the schools of the state
Today and the governor, in appointing
hlI county school superintendents to the
campaign committee. addressed them
letter. which reads in part:

triotic standpoint and secure their en-
thusiastic cooperation.
Americas gift to France is in rec
ognition of the many services rendered
the Revolutionary war, through La
fayette. but also in the great struggle
which has just terminated. The par
ticular object of this gift is to com
memorate the valiant stand of the
French troops in the battle of the
Marine, near the village of MeauX.

Paris was stopped on September 6,

"On the banks of the Marine will be
placed this enduring testimonial to the
French who, at tremendous sacrifice
of men, halted the march of the Hun
hordes to Paris.

children of this nation. with their con-
tributions and their activities, be an
outstanding factor in the movement.

which have prompted this gift
The governor concludes his letter
with an appeal that the necessary steps
be taken by the school heads so that
each child in the state of Arizona may
become interested. and that the state,
through them, shall participate in the
expression of gratitude to France for
defending the frontier of freedom
Others Eager TO operate
Chairman Case has already received
the assurance of a humber of fraterna1
bodies. Boy Scouts and others who are
eager to cooperate in the big drive.

to America. was paid for by popular
subscriptions in small amounts, which
poured in from every corner of the

France Will cost about the same
amount as the Statue Of Liberty, and
it will be paid for in the same way
as France paid for her gift to us. 1t
is more expressive of the spirit of the
gift to have small contributions, it is
thought by the committee, than large
donations from a few.
