HA Six Months 75 Entered as second-cls matter, January 10th, 1912, at the Postotflce at St. Helens, Oregon, under the act of March 3rd, 1S79. COUNTY OFFICIAL HAPF.lt "I pledga allegiance to my Flag, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All." ROOSEVELT'S HIGH SERVICE TO HIS COUNTRY Mr. Roosevelt has the gift of lifting his auditors and readers to his own lofty plane of Intense patroitic devo tion. His Kansas City address was particularly inspiring. Ho has cour age. Intensity of patriotic purpose and unflagging energy. He draws his inspiration from the well-springs of history, and holds fast to the course blazed out by the founders of the republic and hewed into a plain highway by tho great Americans who came after. Brushing aside the arts of rhetoric he drives straight to the heart and mind of the public in such telling sentences a3 this: "The man who in private life won't work hasn't any right to eat, and the man who won't fight for the nation when the nation is at w?r isn't fit to vote In the nation and ought not to be allowed to do so And the man who is chosen to fight for the nation is to be eavied." He lets pass no opportunity to im press upon the minds of his country men the great outstanding lesson of this war our almost total unprepar edness and the price we must now pay for it and the far greater price we should be paying "if we had not been protected by the fleets and armies of France while with hurry and confusion we strove to undo the effects of our folly." That folly traces back to the fail ure of the republic to follow the counsel of Washington, Adutns, Jef ferson, Madison and Jackson for uni versal military training of the young manhood of the nation. If the United States had adopted universal train ing its entire cost, from the founding of the republic down to the present hour, would have been less than the present cost of a single yaar of hurry and confusion. And in all human probability, as Mr. Roosevelt points out, Germany would havo respected our demands, would have fought the present war with a closer regard for international rights and the obligations of civiliza tion, and we should be at peace this moment Instead of spending the na tional resources in terms of a score of billions of dollars. Spokesman-Review. ARK YOU A LIABILITY? It is not unusual for men who are careless, improvident or unsuccess ful to say that the world owes them a living. Such men usually are a liability instead of an asset to tho world. An actuary of high rank declares a mun is a burden to society or Is likely to become one, unless he has, free and clear of nil obligations: At the Age of 25 $ 228 At the age of 30 534 At the- age of 35 94 2 At the age of 40 1404 At the age of 45 1974 At the age of 60 2676 At the aga of 65 3570 At the age of 60 4764 At the age of 65 6000 If you accept those figures you may determlue whether you are a human asset or a liability.

R. R oui: PURPOSES Tho purposes of the United States In this war aro known to tho whole world, to every peoplo to whom the truth has been permitted to come. We seek no material advantages of any kind. We believe that the in tolerable wrongs done in this war by tho furious and brutal power of the imperial German government ought to bo repaired but not at the expense of the sovereignty of any people rather a vindication of tho sover eignty both of those that are weak and those that are strong. Peace must be based upon justice and fairness and tho common rights of mankind. FTom President Wilson's Reply to the Pope. Tho following crop conditions are reported to W. C. Wilkes, A. G. F. & P. A., of the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway by agents of the line: Astoria, Oro. From Astoria sec tion, root crops are reported good throughout thr.t section, particularly potatoes on the lowlands. Digging has not commenced yet, but sample hills dug Indicate a heavy yield. St. Helens, Ore. Beans, the prin cipal crop, are showing up good. Po tatoes are becoming rlpo and yield will he very good, though possibl) not as heavy as last year. Deer Island, Ore. Indications are that the grain crop will be one-third or more short as compared with last year. Rainier, Ore., reports tho best crop of small' grain ever raised in that locality. Corn Is being quite suc cessfully grown. Recent rains aro proving quito beneficial to potato crop, and expectations are for better than one-half crop on the whole. Clatskanle, Ore. Reports state this locality will have about 10 cars of potatoes, 4 cars carrots, 7 cars cabbage, ready for shipment about October 15. The summer has been just right for the dike land farming, while upland farms have suffered from tho drouth. llr.blos Present, Mrs. 1'iuey's baby; largos', bnby, Mrs. HnrdoU's bay; host natured buby, Mrs. ll gloy's baby; bay with redest hair, Mre Stun wood's baby; bay with curliest hair, Mrs. Kelley's In by; bay with blackest eyes, Mrs. Jonlco's b-.iby.
