McMinnville W. S. Houck, of the
Houck Milling Co., of this crty, has
made sale of the mill and warehouses
and good will to Buchanan & Co.,
of Hillsboro, and possession is to be
given soon. The Farmers' Union of
this county in conjunction with the
Tri-State Terminal Co., were nego
tiating for the property and were to
meet on Saturday to give their final
decision. Mr. Houck obtained a
much better price than the offer
made to the farmers, and closed the
deal. Had the farmers been keen to
act at once on the fine offer they had
of $15,000 the property would have
been theirs. Telephone Register.
The Dalles "White coal" generat
ed at Celilo falls on the Columbia
may become the substitute in the
steel industry for black coal, the
shortage of which seriously hampers
eastern industry, declares the Port
land Journal. According to an en
tirely unconfirmed but persistent ru
mor heard in Spokane and Portland,
tv, rhnrlps M. Schwab interests are
considering the development of the
tremendous power at Lelilo witn tne
rhr. of huildine at that point a
great steel plant which would serve
the nation at war. me expectation
that large interests some time will
utilize the vast latent power of the
falls of the Columbia at Celilo
causes even apparently far fetched
rumors to be treated with consider
ation. The government has estimat
ed that the development or tne pow
er at Celilo would cost approximate
ly $23,000,000. Chronical.
Albany As the city's part of the

Keystone
Potato
Planter
This is a machine which does the
work right,- and at the same time
sells at a price so. reasonable that
every potato grower can afford it.
The KEYSTQNE opens the fur
row to the proper depth, drops the
potatoes and covers them uniform
ily. Does not bruise the potatoes,
is easy to operate, and is reliable.
Tillamook There need be no
cheeseless days in this country while
Tillamook county, Oregon, is on the
map. Tillamook has a war crop
that is the cheese, the whole cheese
and nothing but the-cheese, so help
us Hoover! Switzerland can remain
neutral and imported limberger cling
to Hunland, but Tillamook will see to
it that the fighters for democracy go
not cheeseless. The Southern Pacific
hauled close to 5,000,000 pounds of
cheese out of Tillamook in 1917 and
the county collected over $1,000,000.
The industry is now so well establish
ed and conducted on such a sanitary
and scientific basis that Tillamook
cows work over time willingly and
the international cheese record for
1918 is in sight.
Newberg The Newberg board and
Superintendent Stanbrough are con
sidering the proposition of the one
session day for the Newberg high
school. The plan is to begin the ses
sion as early as 7:45 in the morn
ing and close for the day at 12:45.
This is ,done to aid in solving the
labor problem for this locality this
spring as well as for the convenience
of those students who must miss a
day or so each week or stop school
entirely. Newberg Enterprise.
Sheriff W: J. Wilson
Sheriff W.,J. Wilson filed for the
republican nomination for sheriff of
Clackamas county Monday to suc
ceed himself, and has issued the fol
lowing statement to the public as to
his platform:
"Only at the urgent request of my
friends from all parts of the county,
who feel that this is no. time to make
'a change in the sheriff's office, have I
consented to again enter the race. I
have given my best efforts for the
past four years and my record in of
fice should leave no doubt in the vot
ers' mind as to my position on the
various problems which confront the
executive department.
"In reality, there is but one issue
this year and that is the war. First,
last and all the time I want it under
stood I am 100 per cent American
without compromise. And I want to
add further that any candidate who
tries to dodge the war issue, by ignor
ing or otherwise camouflaging this
all-absorbing issue, is not a fit man
for any public office.
"The voters ought to know my
stand on prohibition enforcement by
this time. I have chased the dives
and divekeepers out of business and
the public may rest assured they will
never reappear in this county while
I am on the job. I have eternally
and everlastingly chased the boot
legger and my uncompromising atti
tude toward this parasite has brought
letters of highest commendation from
law abiding people all over the state.
I ask your support on direct action
and results not hot air.
"Certain political opponents are
spreading the malicious canard that
my office is expensively conducted.
Look up the records and you will find
one of the first things I did upon
entering the sheriff's office four
years ago, was to cut off a man from
the payroll. I could not do other
wise and feel I was playing a square
game with the taxpayers. There
has been practically no expense at all
in my bootlegging arrests, as com
parison of results obtained with costs
will clearly show. I invite a rigid
inspection of the records of my de
partment. Don't take my word for
it ask the men who pay the bills.
Further: My books were all audited
the first of the year by an expert
accountant employed by the county.
In reporting to the court this man
filed the following statement: 'The
sheriff's office collects ,the largest
amount of taxes with the least ex
pense of any county I know of.'
"There are no strings to my candi
dacy. I belong to no organization or
clique and I am not attempting to
'salve' either side in the present in
dustrial trouble at Oregon City.
There is but one stand to take and
that is an uncompromising attitude
for strict enforcement of ' the law,
irrespective of who or where it hits.
"I probably will not have time to
make a county-wide campaign. Your
Uncle Sam has honored me with the
chairmanship of the local war board
for this county. Few people realize
the enormity of this work a thank
less task at best and yet a duty I
am proud to perform, I have one
boy in France and two youngsters at
home 'rarin' to go, and I would be a
slacker indeed, were I to let politics
interfere with any job Uncle Sam
wants at this crucial period."

with the wondrous achievements,
these mistakes have been trivial and
not worthy of the attention of the
men who minimize their talents by
trying to magnify molehills into
mountains.
And furthermore, unlike the Spanish-American
war:
We have no army contract scan
dals. We have no embalmed beef hor
rors. .
We have no fat old generals going
to war in carriages and leading bat-,
tie charges, from easy "rocking chairs.
We have no unpleasant gossip
about the , appointment of political
generals and society admirals.
We have no Round Robin letters
from presumptuous and inferior of
ficers demoralizing discipline and
exalting self.

THINGS WE HAVE AND
THINGS WE HAVE NOT
The following is from the pen of
Ex-Governor Martin H. Glynn, of
New York, and was published in the
Albany (N. Y.), Times-Union.
. We have not whipped the kaiser
yet; but we will whip him if. calum
niating critics do not dampen the
fires of enthusiasm or grease the
tracks whereon must ride our nation
al chariots of war. We have more
men in France today than Germany
suspects; and a million more are
waiting for the ships.
We have an army so well cared for
that the death-rate in our ranks for
the four months ending Janulary 1,
1918, averaged only 7.5 per thou
sanda death rate, mind you, less
than the death rate for men of a
like age in peaceful avocations at
home. Compare this with the death
rate of 20.14 per thousand under the
good old Republican rule of the days
of the Spanish-American war. Com
pare these figures, and then applaud
the Roosevelt charges if you can!
True, we have made some mis
takes, but in the magnitude of our
undertaking, some mistakes were in
evitable, unavoidable. In balance,
