HEIP fOR THE JAPANESE
Almost every town in the Northwest is
doing something for the starving Japa
nese in Nippon, Cond:tions there are
deplorable and many of these brave peo
ple must die of starvation if help does not
come soon. It is too bad to think of
such a thing in a country so favored and
blessed as ours. The state of Washing
ton has undertaken to send 5000 tons of
wheat and a corresponding amount of
flour with as much money as they can
raise in cash. Two large steamship com
panies have agreed to transport all con
tributions gratis. President Roosevelt in
a special proclamation to the people of
the United States says:
"The famine situations in Northern
Japan is proving much more serious than
at first supposed, and thousands of per
sons are on the verge of staravation. It
is a calamity such as may occasionally
befall any nation. Nations, like men,
should stand ever ready to aid each other
in distress, and I appeal to the American
people to help from their abundance their
suffering fellow-men of the great and
and friendly nation of Japan.
Union county is sadly in need of a
greater population. Bring water on to
the farms, not now under irrigation, and
the large farms will soon be bought up.
Lend the hospital fund a helping hand
and thereby assist in securing for this
city a worthy institution. Even if you
can not make a large donation, a small
one will help just so much.
The time for registration is becoming
shorter every day. Do not wait until the
last moment. Register today while there
is an opportunity to do so while the books
are down town. Register now while you
have an opportunity or forever hold your
peace.
The polls at the primaries are only
open in the afternoon during the hours
from twelve to seven o'clock. If there is
a full vote it will require close attention
to business to allow sufficient time to vote
and if there are many to be sworn in it
will require so much time that some will
be left out. The remedy is to prepare
yourself now by registering.
