WHAT IS AMERICANISM?
It is hard to pick up a newspaper tins.
days wit h reading of a general strike" thai
is threatened for some city, either here of
abroad. Thai which has centered the Inter
ests of the people of this section of enure fl
the OUtbuni in Seattle.
What does this all mean I Is the ttmv
tnre of American Instritutionn hreakin
down f These are sonic of the quest ion -that
sober-minded citizens are asking them
Helves.
Out here in the oen of mi auricult lira I
and thoroiv American community, for from
industrial activity, it is hard to believe thai
any great number of Americans will be
swept off their feel by the teachings of Bol-
shevism, orother foreign political nostrum -
Hut it is time to awaken to the fad thai W(
an people have been trifling too long wit !
our vaunted security and If we wish to rc
serve our Representative government thai
we be prepared to tiuht its enemies here at
home.
Bolshevism Is class movement, an
anarchist movement, it is socialism carried
to its logical conclusion, the annihilatoii of
government by law. The tanner who toda.i
denounces the acts of the Seattle Bolshevist
lead by Rikowskv who threaten to take over
industries of that great city, are merely o
trig U) step farther than that proposed llj
Twonley and his Ndii Part i an leaders. The
only difference is in the methods employed,
At the same time business and profes
mono! men, who have stood idly by and per
inittcd unfair tactics to be eiuplov ed toward
the farmer or the laboring man, who have
permitted eonsienceless politicann to run the
affairs of state had better awaken to the fa.i
thai such conditions an- responsible in par;
for the troubles that are now disturbing the
peaee and prosperity of this country.
This is representative government. The
essence of Americanism Is a square deal, and
an e(iial opportunity before the law fo
every man to achieve our basic ideal of Life,
Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
If this ideal is worth anything, it i
worth protecting, And if it is worth pr ,
tecting it is worthy of the unwavering sup
port of every citizen.

THE ONTARIO CADETS.
The members of the High School lade!
company received generous praise from the
Colonel John Leader following his review of
their maneuvers last Friday afternoon. Tht
hoys will undoubtedly iheerish his words of
approbation, and strive to merit further ap
proval in years to come.
Among the other sentiments which tin
Colonel admirably expressed was this, on
which even citisen ma well pender: "With
teli cojiipaies like this that I have watched
today, I would gladly receive the Bolshevik!
from Seattle should they attempt to march
on Oregon."
At another juncture in his address to
the cadets oloiiel Leader Midi
"I am pleased to say to you that this i .
the best drilled Hiiih School coninam thai
Hi has been ni privilege to inspect. Volt
have a high duty to perform, then' can hi
none higher than that a man he trained and
willing to protect the government of the
American people."
These words coming form one who ha -
given a quarter of a centnrj to soldiering in
many lands and has served in helping Ore
uoii perform a noble part in the world war,
in which he early gave his all until wounds
incapacitated him, should be indeed a sonic
of joy to the oung men of the company and
a cause fur pride on the coniinunitv which
has long taken pride in the cadet company,
THE JOYS OF THE COUNCIL.
Ontairo' s City Council will uol loiter al
many of its sessions If it solves all the prob
lenis which arc before it at the present time,
and others thai arc bound to arise before
every meeting.
Aside from the water problem which is
a job in itself, the 1 1 y government is far d
with the realization that to collect the dog
taxes, to compel indilTeVeiit citizens to keep
their lots and alleys clean, to enforce the
regulations in other respects, and incidental
ly to combat the emboldened boot legger, i
a program that will tax its constructive
statesmanship, as well as its financial re
sources.
While the council realizes that it lias n
hard .job before it there is no faltering in
tackling the problem, and that is half of tic
battle itself. It is the temporsing with con
ditions by many city governments that maki
enforcement of regulations hard. Once
tin public realizes that a city adniiinstia
tioll means business, and is playing no favor
ites there is a general compliance with n ;t
ouablc regulations.

How Gould He Do It?
A certain well-to-do YOUDjJ business BMUI
tailed ut a bank the other dav and asked fol
a loan of $500.00. Thr hanker prouipth
ti-ok his personal note for the amount.
Why could he do tins i- Simply because
SS a young man he coiiunenced doing hu
mess thru the hank. He had learned earlv
in life that the hank could help him in nianv
ways and the hanker learned that this
young man was a sticker and could be de
pended upon. In fact each had learned to
stay by the other. Young men, there is a
lesson n this for you. Start now doing row
husiness thru a good bank like ours. Stav
by us and we will stav by v.,u.
