A. secretary teaching South American girt« who have been forced into industry during the war t^become laundresses. T H E M O N R O E D O C T R IN E The Monroe doctrine—the principle under which the United States neither joins in European entanglements nor permits en croachments of any foreign power upon the American continent has been for a century past an integral part of the United States solicy. It was instilled into us all at an early^age. side by side with the doctrines and catechism of our especial religious sect. The nation at ljrge has a faint idea that it could get along without any one religious body, but it has a firm conviction that the Mon roe dactrine is the sine qua non of America. Now the plan is for America to take her part in a wider world and become a member of the League of Nations. She is willing to do this and to help insnre peace npon earth if that is a possibility. But she does not want to emulate the dog of the fable and drop a known and sure good in reaching out for a problematical greater and indefinite one. The League of Nations for America and the world; so far, so good. But first and foremost, a renewed recognition of the Mon roe doctrine to safeguard t^e interests of America. You feel proud of your wife and children, don’t you, and if you can do anything to make the home pleasanter and conditions easier for them, you do it willingly. Why .not enlarge the sphere of your affections and take the town you live in on the same footing as your family? Be proud of it. do everything you can for it. If public improvements are need ed, urge thenV ^nd vote for them. We want to see Stayton kno.vn as one of the finest and most progressive little towns in the state. If every citizen will support its trade, forward its interests and show a pride in all its condi tions, our ambition will soon be fulfilled. We wonder if the Gapitof Journal is satisfied now that Olcott is seated in the gubernetorial chair. V\e haven’t seen anything in its columns to the contrary. Probably the Jomyial hasbeen paid in full—or else can see the silver lining. One of the colored battalions reached home in the depths of pessimism. The captain of the transport on which they crossed had forbidden “crap shooting” during the voyage. As Congress started on a wild rush for home a perturbed voice called after it, “ Hey there, you’ve forgotten to fix up the rail roads.” But congress evidently didn’t hear, as it only ran faster. If any one asks you what is going on, tell him that taxes are going up, prices are going down’ the country is going dry, congress is going heme, business is going to pay, 'and we will all be happy The seventeen year locusts are due again this S'ear. How sur prised they will be when they learn there has been a war during their absence. Mr. Hohenzoliern is wearing out hi3 clothes and his welcome in Holland, and the Lord only knows where he will get any more of either.
