Appreciate the wet while you get it. We willlbe dry enough later on Germany will soon be handed the bill for the fiddler's services. Borah appears to be the original doubter. Save one or two of your Liberty Bonds for the Monmouth Memorial hall. articles of feminine apparel, Tues day night's burglar must be headed toward Turkey. . The prospect is that this" section of Oregon will do its share in the production of that bumper wheat crop this year. They are still looking for prece dents by which the Kaiser can be tried for his offences. Let us es tablish a precedent, one that later jurists can refer to if need be. Since England can not solve the Irish problem, it might be respect fully referred to a committee con sisting of Edison, Burbank and Henry Ford. that ninety per cent of the travel over it will be by people who live close to it. To get the view point of the highway 1 commission ' you must consider you live in Benton county and plan to cross Polk a doxen or fifteen timet a year. You wouldn't want to jig saw from one corner of the county to the other every time you went through it. The direct route will get the bulk of the traffic. ' , . There is more than a surplus of public enterprises which demand attention in Monmouth just at pres ent, but as soon as there is breath ing space we expect to see the com munity hall taken up and carried to successful termination. Independence and Monmouth en joy most pulling separately and they never will realize what a little tjm wfrk would do ' for them if they never try it. The outlook is that Polk county will soon have plenty of paved roads. The war time prohibition act ap pears to have been drafted with the idea of enforcement by pacifists. Judging from his partiality to From the manner in which the escaping steam pops every time Senator Chamberlain releases the safety valve lever there must be a considerable accumulation of stor-, ed up wrath within him. . The sen ator has haofa first hand chance at information in Washington and is acquainted with facts not generally known but with which future his' torians will deal. Some people imagine that the on ly people who will use the Pacific highway are tourists. The truth is MULKEY'S -GROCERY For Good Things to Eat. Staple and Fancy Groceries. Canned Goods, Provisions.

Phone Main 202. - - Monmouth, Oregon :joe John Barleycorn ia putting up t howl.but he will be outlawed in the near future, and despite bold talk he wont come back. The Federal constitution ia a hard obstacle to surmount. Alcohol will be distilled for power and fuel instead of devil ment and destruction and much of the business which John Barleycorn monopolized will go to grape Juice, sweet cider and Loganberry juice. Which makes the advertisement of the Pheasant Co. in another column all the more significant. Everything indicates that the loganberry indus try in the Willamette valley is fac ing a bright future. It was quite a mouthful that Dr. Winship said when he talked of the passing of money as a basis of val ues to credit as a basis of values. Under the money system the war destroyed nothing for gold and ail ver were not burned,nor fired from the mouth of cannons, nor sunk Jn the Atlantic. There is just as much gold and silver in the world as be fore the war began. As far ta they are concerned the world is just as rich now as it was four years ago. But credits have been destroyed and this fact is most important when it comes to reweaving the fabric of civilization. - Athough there was a unanimous sentiment in Dallas Saturday after noon for the hard roads project it must not be hoped this will contin ue to the polls. The knocker is al ways with us and long ago he began digging for the peculiar ammuni tion of his kind. It will cost more. You can't get the money. There is not enough help. The paying won't last. These are a few of the things he repeats when he gets a chance They tell us that paper was never in such demand as it is at present. Europe has become a large import er and whole shiploads are sent to Asia to supply the demand of the orientals. Paper making in this sec tion has greatly increased in quan tity of production during the last few years and will expand very much more in the next few years, The true citizen sees the project through. He stays to wind up the hose after the fire is out. He helps to clean up and wash the dishes after the banquet. He helps to r store costumes and return proper ties when the amateur show is end' ed. This is the citizen who can be relied on to see the Victory loan through; to help the government in the clean up process, now that the war is ended. Buying bonds at this time is a true test of your' public spirjt. One day in December 1897, the meditator sat in the office of Levy Mayer in Chicago and heard that gentleman give an opinion of a case before him. Of Hebraic cast, black curly hair, aquiline nose he talked as if serious things and matters of large importance were his common fare, as they were. Apparently he had no mind for the lesser things of life. Now he is the actual legal mind which is seeking to break the prohibition amendment. The other day he gave vent to sentiments on the matter in which such phrases as "personal liberty" "freedom of conduct" "confiscation of proper ty", etc., were frequent. Why those things have.been bashed, and chewed over long ago and settled. Can it be that. Mr. Mayer in his re search into corporation law, into the fine points of high finance, into matters of jurisdiction and juris prudence, has been unaware of this great moral fight which the plebe ian and common herd of mortals have fought and settled right un der his nose? Mr. Mayer's educa tion has been decidedly neglected and he Is apt to learn few things before he gets - through with this particular case.
