The Golden Harvest is On
Huckleberries are ripe and peace to
the. campers, for the jail-breaking
murderers are now wearing Oregon
Boots.
1 If justice be done, we'll have something
to go to this Fall other than the Round
Up.
Gee! This is a great world! We olv .
serve that every Harvest we have en
dured we have 'lived the whole year
through.

NOwltJR A SPUD WAREHOUSE
This is an opportune time to lake
hold of the potato bu-dnos that Is
being brouitht to Innl attention by
The Partners Hank of Weston; and
the Leader hopes the opportunity will
not bo lost by the grower of this
section.
Growers are urged to ""'"'I their
ivplies promptly to the bank and to
attend n meeting that will be- called
later. Think it over! Figure what
you would have saved in past seasons
had your potatoes been stored where
you could have sold them at the right
time. Make a memorandum of any
question that may come to your
mind, so that when the meeting 1
culled you will tie ina position to get
the mit from it.
The Farmers Hank has received
number of encouraging letters in con
nection with the potato warehouse
project. The following is an excerpt
from one of them, writtin by K. A.
Witm-hard, who is now president and
general manager of the Northern
Livestock Loan Co., Portland, and
was formerly a government employe:
"Whi n I was with the Government
in Central Oregon, we organized the"
Pes Chutes Valley Potato Grower
Association, rented a warehouse,
sij-ned up the members-hip with their
crors and sold our potatoes from 115
to 50 cents per bushel above the ordi
nary run. We set up grades, pack,
etc., and maintained n regular mutin
eer on a fractional charge per
bus-hel."

coiiise in his strong and unequivo'-al
Seech of acceptance. He haa nailed
the riifht colors to the democratic
must. With his party he stands for
.world progress, world hope and-altruism.
If he is beaten it will bo de
feat in a glorified cause a defeat
without discredit.
Russian cities are known to be in
a state of near starvation, and its
transportation system approaching
paralysis. The peasant, who consti
tutes by far the largest class in
Russia, ii distrustful of the cities
and of the bolshevik government,
and what little food he raises he
keeps. It is amonj,' present world
mysteries, therefore, how Russia has
managed to equip and move a larjte
and victorious army. Perhaps it is
the last convulsive effort of a red
autocracy that is belived by some
observer to be on its last legs
being driven from the pillar of urban
communism to the post of peasant
individualism. The communists, who
are few in number but very active,
want common ownership of land.
The peasant has the land, stolen in
large measure from confiscated es
tates, and intends to keep it or die
defending it. Meanwhile the ap
proach on Warsaw is only one phase
of a problem that will continue to
grow bigger and more formidable
until Russia collapses into complete
atavism or manages to get a stable
and enlightened government. It is
one of the many troubles the world
owes to the Hapsburgs and the JIo
hcnzollems. More Uian85 percent of federal
taxe go to pay war costs, and these
taxes are now six or seven times
what they were prior to the recent
great struggle. The United States
has out $24,000,000,000 In bonds and
notes, floated to pay for war. Such
figures are appalling, not to consider
the cost of war in the blood of the
nation's young manhood. Is not the
League of Nations worthy of support
on the ground, if nothing else, that
it is the only great world movement
ever attempted that promised to re
lieve the world of the calamity of
war? Cox i for the U'ague of Na
tionshis ringing speech of accept
ance leave no doubt on that point

the League of Nations. His election
will virtually mean that the United

In what camp are you!
Certain g. o. p. scribblers have
picked a phrase out of the Co
speech of acceptance and settimr it
entirely anart from its votit.t de
cline that it betrays his "wet" pro
chviti. It is: "Month cannot

another phras-. "This h no lime for

A Journey Into tne Wilds
After an absence of nearly a month,
Col. F. (!. Luca.i returned thin week
from another long trip into northern
Alberta.
Ho was accompanied by Charles
McCarthy and Lon Hill, New York
men of affairs who Vcre acting for
themselves and others in the explora
tion and appraisement of nearly 200,
000 acres of unaurvcyed Alberta
land. Mr. McCarthy in a millionaire.,
The journey was made by rail, dog
train and river and took the party
into the wilderness ax far north as
loO miles from Kdmonlon, Alberta.
They had an Indian guide, a train of
faithful husky pack dogs with their
driver, and an Indian river pilot.
They found game in great abundance.
McCarthy killed n liear, Hill killed a
moose and Lucas took his out in
ducks. Fish were more than plenti
ful, so much so that taking them got
to be poor sport.'
The party witnesned an unusual in
cident. A moose had gone into the
Athabasca river to escape the bull
dog (lies, a great pe' t,,at ru"
gion. An Indian slowly drifted down
upon it in his canoe. Within jumping
distance he leaped to it back and
"bulldogged" and drowned It In the
water.
Austin Mann and William Taylor,
both 21 years of agc,must go to pris
on because tjicy violated paroles
granted them out of the circuit court
of Umatilla county.
