One of the most regrettable things at this time is a lack of patriotism, lu lly as regrettable a thing is wrongfully ac cusing patriotic citizens of a lack of patriotism and even going so far as to accuse them of actual disloyalty. Several times within the past month The Sentinel has heard the remark made that a certain citizen of Cottage Grove was a German spy and was holding se cret sessions of German born citizens at his house. The folks telling suck yarns can't really believe them or they would re port them to the authorities, and if they haven’t confidence enough in what they are telling to so report, they are doing someone a grievous injury. It happeus that in this case The Sen tinel has heard the person referred to denounce the militarist class of Ger many and unequivocally declare himself on the side of Ameriia. which he has dimionstrated in a more substantial manner, in proportion to bis means, than many born in America who have been vociferating their patriotism. Red Cross and Y. M. C. A. subscriptions anil investment in liberty bonds have been voluntary and liberal. No doubt the citizen referred to has held social gatherings of his friends, but The Sentinel is willing to wager that the war was the subject of least consideration. That these social gatherings were held was the only foundation for the rumor and upon just such rumors as these, acts of violence have been committed in other sections of the I'nited States. No such rumor should be passed from mouth to mouth. If there is foundation for the rumor it should be reported to the authorities. If there is not founda tion, those passing it from mouth to mouth arc doing an injury to patriotic- citizens. Another instance almost equally as regrettable is that of those who ask why a certain army officer has returned to Cottage Grove and why he is not at the front with other Cottage Grove boys. I f those who ask these things un derstood army regulations they would not need to ask such questions. When a man onee enters the army his dispo notion is with the war department and it is not within his own power to be re leased. Neither is it within his own power to remain in the army if his ef forts to pass the physical examination are unsuccessful. This particular man i has given years of his life to perfecting himself for just such an emergency ns this. It is a great disappointment to him not to be able to serve, and those who have given no time whatever cer tainly have little reason to east asper sions upon one who has never shirked a duty and has done his best to serve in his country’s army at this time. This is a dangerous time for idle gossip. A L L A F R A I D OF T H E L E A G U E Probably none of the candidates would refuse any votes which Town- l e v ’s Non Partisan league may control in Oregon, but none has been found who is willing to stand right up and say he believes in the principles of the league. Even Senator R. M. Pierce, who was thought to be the Townley candidate for governer, denies ever having been associated with the league in any form, and denies having the Townley league’s support or endorsement. Oswald West, who has fume to be looked upon as the brains of the Town ley macheine for Oregon, says be does not even know what the league is, or what it stands for, while Ben Oleott displays a righteous wrath when asked i f he has been playing peek-a-boo or hide-and-go-seek with the Townley forces. It is noticeable that, while no can didate has been willing to say that he wants the support of the league, none has actually come out strongly against the propaganda of the league, which would indicate that while they do not wish to hurt themselves by lining up with the league they do not wish to enstrange, by too firm u position, any voters who may lean towards Town- leyism. * t r , j [• * , ' j « A' ~ li 4 *’1 1 , i >1 4 ( 1 1 * 1 *1» ZI r SI 1 i » ( M J vi k - ■ W H E R E DO Y O U B U Y " We have seen folk* smile when it hns been suggested to them that trading out-of town meant that if all did the same it would be but a few yearn be fore the city would Jiave no bnsineaa houses, no streets and no sehools. These some people would smile with ineredulity if told that the business sent out of Cottage Grove would support two great department stores that would bring several more families to the com munity and would bring larger stocks that would pay city, school and road taxes, and give the buying public a si« ; t j I !

How these thing* work out was ¡Ibis trated last week when the Bender bak ery quit business. Had Cottage Grove people insisted upon Cottage Grove bread the bakery would have staid here. A* it is, we are suffering the inconvenience of being without a bakery and how much of an inconvenience that is we did not know until we had to try it. The (Sentinel does not know all the details of why Mr. Bender quit business, but it does know that if Cottage flrove people had insisted upon Cottage flrove bread, even if necessary to pay a rent a loaf more than for Portland bread, there would still be a bakery here— and wouldn't it be worth that extra cent to have a bakery here? The profits, if there happened to be any, would be spent here, and we really would be money ahead bv paying a little more for home made bread. Continual and increased buying awav from home will bring ail other business houses to the same condition as the bakery. There should he sonn* happv basi* upon whieh purchaser and «eller rould get together, beai any little differences fhey mny hnvc and both start pnlling for a bigger and better city, muking it big enough so that there will he little need of going away from hörne to trade, I .,. —-------- O f eourse it i* on ly a coi nc idence, but it i* funny that the Corvsllis Courier, a red hot Townley Non-Partisan leugne | The happiest memorii's of luter life | are of Ihe happy nioment* speat nt and j uv er inother’s knee. i . . . mlv»rt*at«*, hupp«*nn to b«* su p p o rting tin* v«*ry « u n .liilu t»‘N chur^ctl w ith m ak in g t f o o <»y«*rt ut th** leu^iin.
