WASTING WHEAT.
We have become aocustomed to the
idea of conservation by the consum
er, and we have come to know some
thing about conservation by the man
ufacturer and in trade practices.
There still remains a broad Held in
which waste is possible, and to which
. measures of saving may be appuea
. A movement has . been projected
through conference of many of the
agencies Interested by which there
may result a reduction in the waste
of threshing wheat. One authority
states that in the state of Kansas
alone there is an annual waste in
threshing of over 2,000,000 bushels
The amount of the wheat crop lost to
the nation, according to some au
thorities, may run from 1 to 10 pei
.cent. The grain threshing dnvlsior
of the United1 States grain corpora
tion, co-operating with county thresh
ing committees throughout the na
tlon, Is undertaking to solve this
problem of waste at the source. Here
is a fundamental step In conserva
tion, one which calls for the sympa
thetic co-operation of everyone con
cerned. . . ; .
Have you noticed that almost every
democratic roaper in Oregon is sup
porting Olcott for governor? sayis
the St. Helens Mist. Isn't it rather
strange that the democratic press
should take such an Interest In the
selection of a republican candidate,
. or in view of the accomplishments
of the Ohamberlain-West-Olcott com
bination, is It strange? In our opin
ion It will be Wlthycombe first,
Simpson second, Olcott third and
Moser a poor fourth. Republicans
don t let the democratic -press fool
you again.
Don't get the Idea into your head
that the McN&ry politicians are not
spending any filthy lucre during the
present campaign. If information at
hand Is correct, and it does not come
from the opposition, either, na less
than $10,000 has been, andi is now
being ".played out " for the sole pur
pose of putting Mr, McNary "over"
This sum has been put in circulation
within the past three weeks. How
much more was spent prior to this
time "deponent sayeth not, '
To censure a man because he haB
made a success In a business way is
simply admitting your own Inefficien
cy to eope with the more Important
"problems of life. It Is no disgrace to
be poor, In fact, many of us enjoy It,
and probably' for this reason make
no great effort to gain wealth.
Nolther Is it any disgrace to be
wealthy, providing that wealth has
come through legitimate channels.
During these strenuous days of
the world-wide war If It were not for
Hie "livestock" of the community
business in the various branches of
the county's legal channels would
hardly cause a ripple. Botwoeh
Douglas county hogs and Chinook
salmon, however, there seems to be
o-uite a rivalry.
, All Chicago cabarets closed by law
on the first of May; If Chicago keeps
It up she will soon be contesting
morality honors with one of hor col
onies, to-wit: Zlon City, founded by
John Alexander Dowle,
The West-Olcott-McNary bunch of
politicians are certainly there with
the camouflage. They're "smearing"
it all over during the present cam
paign. Belgium Is given- more "credit."
Very hard to do, as she has won
about all the "credit" any earthly
state could have won In this war.
The Amiens cathedra! Is now with
in range of German guns. Guess what
Is going to happen to It. You are

THE LADIES' EXCLUSIVE
SALES OF W. S. S. AT
,831.75
Sales of war savings and thrift
stamps by the post oincos of Douglas
county for the month of April to
talled $23,831.75. This brings the
grand total for the live months that
these "baby bonds' have been on
sale, ending April 30, up to ?88
364.20 for the county's post offices
alone.
The banner month for sales bo fai
ls March. "During that period the
proceeds froni the sales reached the
figure of 130,196. .-That the sales for
the succedtng month of April were
f G3G3 less is attributed to the vigor
of the liberty bond cannpalgn that at
tracted a large number of small In
vestors whose savings might other
wise have been converted into war
saving stamps. '
Sales for the first half month of
May are reasonably briBk following
bo closely upon the liberty bond
drive, but they do not give promise
of exceeding the April total. As
real savings- proposition, the stampB
are proving their worth so far, at
least locally. Of the several hun
dred buyers of war savings stamps
at the Roseburg post office, less than
a half dozon have withdrawn, and
these held only insignificant amounts.
War savings stamps are soiling
this month for J4.10 each. They
bear interest at the rate of 4 per cent.

rm ; republican
UNITED STATES'
i- ASS? SENATOR
Kobert N, Stanfield's nomination for United
States Senator in the Republican Primaries, May 17,
will mean two tilings ' - . :
. .1 The belief of the people of Oregon that this
state has not received the recognition at Washing
ton to which it is entitled and that there is a demand
for a square deal. ;, . , , ' .... . , . ' .
2 The Republicans do not want the Democratic
boss to dictate in the Republican primaries and that
Republicans prefer Stanfield, a 10(T per cent Repub-'
. lican, rather than a 50-50 Demo-Rep., nominated by
the Dcmoc-ntic Boss. ' . -
Do you want a wide-awake, energetic man with
initiative aiid red blood to be Senator, or do you want
a "man asleep on the. job" who introduces bills and
permits them to sleep in committee
A man who knows Oregon and its needs and who
has the force and confidence to demand results will
quickly hiake his mark at AVashington and through
lihn Oregon will receive the recognition so long de
fied this state. Such a man is Robert N. Stanfield.
S. 13. Huston, in withdrawing from the Sena
: torial contest, made the following statement:
"I have a very strong conviction that Oregon
has been discriminated against by the National Gov
ernment in many ways. Mr. Stanfield shares this
feeling and promises, if elected, to correct it as far as
it lies in his power to do so. Senator McNary denies
that any such discrimination exists He was quoted
in a dispatch from Washington to the Oregon Jour
nal as saying that he 'took no sj;ock in the statement
that there had been discrimination against Oregon.'
Of course, if he believes there has been no such dis
crimination he will make no effort to remove it.
What has Oregon received except such business
as had to come here because material could not bo
furnished elsewhere 1 '
Oregon furnishes spruce, but the airplanes are
not manufactured here. .
Oregon has received a few contracts for wooden
ships, because the timber is here, but look at the
wooden ship contracts that went to the South and
the Atlantic Coast; and for many of these Southern
ships Oregon had to be drawn on for large timbers.
More than 20,000 Oregon boys are in the service,
but they all were sent to cantonments in other states
for- training. "
Oregon responded quickly to appeals for .food
conservation, but the wheat growers of Oregon were
penalized 20 cents a bushel for living in this state.
Many other instances could be cited showing
what Oregon has been discriminated against but Mr.
McNary says that he "takes no stock in the state
ment that Oregon has been discriminated against."
Do you want these conditions to continue, or do you
want them remedied? If you want results, then send
Stanfield to Washington.'
Five Lawyers represent Oregon at Washington.
Why not elect a farmer, stockraiser and business
man for a change? Do lawyers have a monopoly of
all th- loyalty, patriotism, wisdom and knowledge in
Oregon? .
Why1 does the Chamber of Commerce pay a spe
cial agent a Senatorial salary of $7,500 a year to
remain at Washington to look after practical matters
for Oregon if someone isn't "Asleep on the job" or
if Oregon is not discriminated against? ,
100 PER CENT OR 50-50 PER CENT.
Republican voters should settle their own party affairs in the
primaries without the interference of Democratic kaisers.
A clean-cut party issue is presented to the Republicans of
Oregon, It Is in the hands of Republicans, themselves, whether
they want a Republican Senator or a Demo-Rep. Senator.
Stanlleld is 100 per cent Republican and has been elected as
such three times to the Legislature.
McNary, his opponent, lias a penchant for holding office, but
' has never yet been elected to one by the people in fact, he was
defented the only tlmo the people over got a chance to vote on him
and ho has been willing to seek appointment to political jobs from
Democrats as Republicans.
The Democratic Doss appointed McNary to the Supreme Bench
and is now trying to make the Republicans nominate his friend and
colloaRUo for United States Senator. If McNary, the protege of
Oswald West, Is nominated then the Republicans can say "good
night" to -tho Republican party in Oregon for years to come, for
West will be In power and hnve his friend at Washington.
Here Is tho question for yon, Mr. and Mrs. Republican Voter,
to settle It is strictly a iparty matter in the primaries. Do you
wan-t a genuine, 100 per cent Republican or a 50-50 Dciiio-Republl-can,
with the latter endorsed and advocated! by the solf-appointed
Democratic Dictator? .
IF VOU WISH TO .MAINTAIN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, YOU
MUST VOTE VOU STANFIELD.
