state into a program of state so.
cialism as a stepping stone to-
ward communism.
Under the same misguiding
hands we find the non-partisan
league placing its farmer mem
bership on record as favoring
public ownership and democrat
ic operation of public utilities -
which means among other things
the Plumb plan for taking over
the railroads.
The farmers of this valley and
;; the state of Washington may be
in favor of the Plumb plan, but
this paper will need more than
the platform of the non-partisan
league to convince it of that fact.
In this state the railroads pay
about 35 per cent of all the taxes,
in the county the percentage is
43 per cent. When a Washington
farmer lines up for the Plumb
plan it means that he proposes
first of all to wipe off the tax
rolls one-third of all taxable
property, thereby increasing his
own taxes by one-third; then he
is going to dig still deeper into
his pockets to raise money to
buy the railroads; then he is go
ing to take those railroads which
he has paid for and hand them
over to the railroad workers,
who are to fix their own wages
and likewise the transportation
charges on the products the
farmer sells and the commodi-
ties he buys; the earnings, if
there are any, are to be divided
between the fellows who fix
their own wages and the taxpay-
ers who bought, but will not
own, the rilroads; the deficit,
and there will probably be one,
is to be paid, all of it, by the peo-
pie who pay the taxes, and the
farmers pay most of the taxes.
Some plan! Yes, for the rail-
road workers, who at the Yaki.
ma convention very generously
consented to take only the con-
gressional offices, leaving all the
state offices to the farmers.
(State officials can not vote on
the Plumb plan). laseEam
This little scheme to make the
farmer pay for transportation,
commodities and wages, and at
the same time compelling him to
take less for what he has to sell,
is only one of the several flowery
paths which Townley, Mills, Sta
lard and other professional So
cialist agitators have laid out
for the farmer to traverse on his
pilgrimage out of his present
into the promised land
Of communism.

Road to Communism

iT[HEN THE non-partisan
~ league met in state con-
vention at Yakima and as a
group adopted a platform it de-
clared for ''the conservation for
public use Of all natural resources
and water'power owned and con-
ftrolled by the state.
Conservation of the cOuntry's
undeveloped resources is no new
declaration either for political
party or individual. ADVISE and
comprehensive conservation pro-
gram is one which any progress
sive, forward-lookin citizen can
and does endorse and one to
which any thinking farmer can
subscribe.
But something happened.
When this conservation plank
of the non-partisan league was
put through the joint mill of the
non-partisan league, the railway
mems welfare league and the
workers non-partisan league it
came out a demand for public
ownership and control of all ma
tural resources, including water
power SITES"
There is q vast difference be-
tween the conservation of natur-
al resources and public owner
ship of all natural resources. The
greatest of all natural resources
is agricultural lands. And under
the dictation of the communist
leaders of the non-partisan
league, demanding that the state
take over the ownership of their
farms. Under the manipulation
of communist socialists like
Townley, Mills, and Stallard, who
own nothing and pay no taxes,
the farmers conservation plank
is converted into one of the fun
damental tenents of communism.
These men believe just what the
platform says, that all the land,
all the forests, all the mines, all
the fisheries, should be taken out
of the hands of the present own
ers and managed for the benefit
of the lazy, the indolent, and the
dreamers. And under their false
leadership an effort is being
made to lead the farmers of this

NEADERS of the Courier
Reporter will recall that


i 81 Reporter will recall that
some time ago this paper printed
an editorial requesting that the
people Of this community hear
Walter Thomas Mills who at that
time was billed to speak here fol-
the non-partisan league. We
expressed the opinion then, and
repeat it now, that the non-par-
tisan league and its program is
going to be an important issue
in the county and state elections
and it is the duty of every voter
to inform himself on the aims,
purposes, and accomplishments
of the league. There are two
sides to every question and no
man can justify his conclusions
on any question until he has
heard both sides.
4 Mills came, was given a re-
spectful hearing by a large aud
fence. He spoke for the non-par-
Itisan league. Next Tuesday eve
ming there is coming to Kenne-
wick a man who is going to
speak against the league. He is
II. B. Creel, a Kitsap county
farmer. He is not an orator or
a professional platform speaker
as is Mr.. Mills, but undoubtedly
he will have something to say
that will be of interest to the PEG
| pie of this community, especially
to the farmers. He should be
given a hearing, not only by
those who are opposed to the
bipartisan league, but by the
members of that organization.
If the league is what it's leaders
claim for it, if it is what it has
been represented to be to the
farmers, it should have nothing
to fear from honest criticism,
openly expressed. Mr.. Mills has
told the Washington farmers
that they need the non-partisan|
league. Here is one Washington
farmer, who after careful study
and investigation of the league,
is Of the opinion that Mr.. Mills
is mistaken. If the non-partisan
leaguers of this community are
disposed to be fair, and honest
with themselves and their neigh
bors, they will be in Mr.. Creel's
audience Tuesday, evening.

up in Mabel's Room" the farce
which kept all New York laughing
for months, last season, will be pre-
sented at the Opera House on Sat
urday, March 20 for an engagement
of one night under the direction of
A. H. Woods. The play has been
described as a frivolous farce of
feminine foibles and is the work of
Wilson Collision and Otto Harbach.
1t is in three acts and the scenes are
laid in a country home on Long Is
land. The story of the plays deals
with the farcical adventures Of Gar
ry Ainsworth, young benedict who
is confronted on his honeymoon with
the evidence of an old indiscretion.
The evidence in this case is a pink
chemise which he had unwittingly
given to a beautiful and charming
widow of who he had been fond in his
bachelor days. This ckemise was un-
fortunately inscribed mabel from
Garry" and the slightly jealous and
exceedingly mischievous Mabel
threatened to show it to Garry's wife.
Gary pleaded, coaxed and cajoled in
an effort to get the chemise back,
and finally decided TO steal it. More
difficulties arose than he dreamed of

HARDLY KNEW HER

Miss Peck's Friends Are Aston
ished By Her Wonderful
Improvement

81 have gained some eight or ten
pounds since l commenced taking
Tanlac and feel perfectly splendid
in every way" said Miss Annie Peck,
living at 1421 Charlotte St., Kansas
City, Mo. Il just can't think of
enough good things to say about
Tanlac, she continued.
My troubles began about a year
ago with nervous Indigestion and my
stomach finally got in such bad con-
ditlon that everything | ate disagreed
with me. After every meal | would
be perfectly miserable from gas
forming, and this gas would press up
against my lungs and heart until |
could hardly get my breath. l also
suffered from severe headaches and
became so nervous | rarely ever got
a good nights sleep. Finally l be-
came so weak and run down that l
had to give up trying to do any work
lat all.
MY brother had gotten fine re-
suits from taking Tanlac so | began
taking it, too, and right from the first
| could just feel my strength coming
back. l continued to improve and
now am as well and hearty as any
one could wish to be and never have
la sign of stomach trouble or ner-
vousness any more. l am looking so
much better that my friends who
haven't seen me since l began taking
Tanlac hardly know me at first sight,
and l am feeling so perfectly fine
Just, want to tell everybody about
Tanlac."
Tanlac is sold in Americas by
Planters Seed and Drug Co., and one
leading druggist in every town.

lander his hist ~ is only partially
known. How he came to the Ha-
waiian Islands will always remain a
mystery, for the nearest land is over
two thousand miles away, and how he
ever managed this without modern
boats viii always puzzle the student,
for it would seem impossible that it
could be managed in these open
canoes. But this is undoubtedly the
way they landed. The Kanaka as
the native Hawaiian is called, speaks
the same language or dialect that the
native of New Zealand does. The
speculation as to how he came to Ha-
wal and as to his origin has given
birth to much tradition.
"A Daughter of the Sum-" the story
of an Hawaiian butterfly, written by
LOrin Howard and Ralph T. Ketter-
ing is the latest play founded on the
tradition of Hawaii. The play is a
sweet love story telling the love of a
good man for his soul mate. The
atmosphere of Hawaii is maintained
throughout. the action of the play by
a band of native players or musicians.
The play is under the management of
the Mutual Play Co., who have sup
piled a large and competent cast for

characters necessary to play of this
kind. The scenic establishment is
wonderful, the first act alone having
six scenes. The scene showing the
eruption of the volcano in the last
act is the end of stage mechanism.
