WE HOLD THE POWER OHE SUPREME ISSUE before this nation is to .win the war. Nothing else counts now except our power to fight unto destruction the barbarism of Germany's military machine which seeks to conquer and dominate the world. All that civil ization holds dear in the honor of womanhood, in the sacredness of international treaties, in human liberty, in Christianity itself, are at stake, as we meet in the fearful struggle on the battle fields of France, the atheistfc barbarism of Germany, which for generations has been building a fighting machine for the ex press purpose of dominating the world. In 1852, or more than 65 years ago, Henry Winter Davis, one of the ablest statesmen which Maryland ever produced, pre dicted that the time would come when the autocracy of conti nental Europe would seek to destroy the democracy of the world ; and he said that it would be better for American soldiers to fight on a thousand battle fields in Europe with England as an ally "than to have to fight on pur own shores without allies.' If the democracy of England, said he, were destroyed by the autocracy of Europe, the next move would unquestionably be upon Amer- gradually, but surely, gaining control of the situation on the western front, it becomes more Imperative than ever that every man, woman and child at home exercise all power they may put behind the armies of the front by buying bonds and stamps and taking their full part in every war activity. A Story of Married Life REVELATIONS OF A WIFE By Adh Cvrisou Why William Trumbull Said "Ain't Na Jab Tot Hard if Yon Want Us." No for William Trumbull and bia puah cart. Ttaia hi the whimaical thought which come to me aa I aaw Dicky escorting hla mother and Couain Agatha to the taxi which waa to take them to the tiny rail road station at Marvin, on their way to the city. I M glad indeed to ae the re treating backa of all three, for ther de parture left me free to proceed with the only poaaible acheme for getting our furniture, and especially Dicky's "collec tion" of old booka and periodicals,'tnov- ed to our new home before noon on the neat day, the time when our leaae ex pired. Our erratic and often Intoxicated land lord had appeared in fha morning to ses why we were not already moving. Dicky's altercation wit- him had made bim ao angry that he had departed, threatening dire vengeance if the lsst article were not off hie premises at the atroke of the next day's noon. The moving men we had engaged could not or would not come because of the muddy condition of Jbe roads, and I waa nearly at my wits' end with" anxiety until I had thought of acheme which, if I could aacrifice my housewifely pride a bit, would gat everything out by the appoint ed time. Tola waa to keep William Trumbull and bia puah cart traveling back and forth between the new home and the old, all night if necessary, until the leal installment of Dicky's "collecUon" wa landed in the attic of tbe new home. I knew that Jim with an occasional "hand" from William could manure to get the out of bia near-aighted eyea. which yet were ao clear and child-like a bine that they redeemed bia ugly face. Ua waa I squat little man, almost a dwarf, bat with an unusually well developed chert and arms. The ugliness of bis face waa accentuated by a lump or born of flesh protruding from one side of bia forehead. Altogether bia waa a face and figure cal culated to strike terror into the hearta of children and nervous women. And yet all children and aulmale liked William Trumbull, a aure teat of tbe unfortunate old fellow's lunate goodneaa of heart. Ba waa ao eager to propose aome plan to me that he fairly wriggled on bia chair as be waited for Jim to stop talking. "Oen't Nasal to Worry.'' "Don't need to worry none, Vila' Granrie," be ssid in bia staccato koaky utterance, which people found bard to underuand t firat I myself had putaitd over it for daya before I could get the poor man's real Basoning. "Don't spatter none if Jim bs caa't get no borae. I kin mora everything right on si) puah cart. I kin get a piano on that puah cart if Jim can go along to help me bold it on. ' The viaion of William Trumbull and Jim delicately balancing a piano pn tbs puah cart waa almost too much for my risibles, but I managed to keep my face straight. Katie bad not my elf-control, however, and ahe giggled outright. William's face darkened like a sulky caiMs. "You don't need to laugh.' he aaid, sourly. "Me and that push cart we've done things for lota of swell people in this town. Mia' Cathcart, thnt'a the bant er'a wife, ahe'a a abort, chunky lady, ahe alwaya baa me bring things to her from Marionville. Mo. Mr. McDaniel is well knows in Junction City, saving lived nera tor number of rears. Mrs. M. p. Corbia was a Eocene visitor slonday-avening. C. E. Scbenk, proprietor of the lion arch cafeteria of Eugene, formerly a farmer a few miles nortbeaat of Junc- uoa City, was ia town Taesday a bual aess. . lea. That tima has come. We are fighting on the battle fields of France to save ourselves from having to fight on the battle fields of our own land. We are trying to meet the conflagration in Europe rather than to see it sweep across the ocean and attack our own cities and sweep throughout our land, as it has through France and Belgium and Italy and Serbia. Under such conditions, all that we have on earth is at stake. Civilization, Christianity, woman hood, childhood, liberty are all the issue, with their future hang ing in the balance according to the strength of our power to fight What matters it, then, whether we have to sacrifice and econ omite in order to make it possible for the government to meet this tremendous issue by creating a fighting machine equal to the emergency T In order to meet the mighty fighting power of Germany, de veloped through generations, we must build a fighting machine surpassing Germany's to the extent that heaven surpasses hell, that liberty surpasses slavery, that American men of honor sur pass the brutish German outragers, that the honor of American women surpasses the lustful crimes of the German soldiers. i ims can not be done except by the power of money. The government can not create money. It can only use the money which its people through taxes or Liberty bonds or War Savings stamps furnish. The government is merely the representative or every individual in the nation. It has no power except the power given to it by the people of the country. Its ability to create a great fighting machine, to provide ships with which to . carry our army abroad, to feed and munition our soldiers: ita ability to create a great navy and to maintain all of the vast ac tivities connected with war work depends wholly upon the Indi viduals who comprise the nation. It has been well said that God does not know America except as he knows the individuals who comprise America. The government can not do anything except through the power of the individuals who make up the aggregate ei our population. The responsibility, therefore, rests upon every single indi vidual man, woman, and child to do the utmost in their power to stand by the government as the government stands behind the soldiers who are fighting this battle for our existence. In this work the War Savings stamps and Liberty bonds -carat, as a powerrul appeal to the very soul of every individual in the country. t The War Savings stamp Is one way through which every jnan. woman, and child can give expression to his patriotism. flTh. War Savings stamp appeals to the boy and the girl to save ('telr peralea as) well aa to the man and woman of small income And to those of larger Income. None are too poor, none too rich to co-operate with the government The war ia progressing very satisfactorily, and the Ger- are Demg steadily forced backwards in snite of fhnir t resistant. Prisoners and guns have been captured by the Al lies In large quantities, and the evidences of declining morale in (the German army are increasing daily. German commanders bow realise that the Allies have seized the offensive, and that they must choose between disaster and retirement. They wisely ,takaJ the latter: Victory for the Allies is now only a question of wiw UN American force, and the armies of the Allies furniture and tha trunks over on a horae ; the station, and take trunks down, too. wnon tneir automobile ia broke." Ilia voice was full of pathetic pride. hastened to soothe his wounded vanity. "I have a very important Job for yon. Hililam," I aaid, "one that I wotildn' trust to an ordinary expreasmen. But yon may have to work all night long on it." The Eager Answer. His face lighted up aa if aome one had turned on an incandescent bulb behind his eyes. "Ain't no job In tbe world too long or too hard for me and the push cart If you fast us. Mis' Gramie," the poor fellow aaid simply. And there came to me a sudden, swift thought like a forewarning, that rome time, somehow, William Trumbull would make good bia boast. drawn wagon If be only had been able to aecure one. Dlcky'a "collection." which I knew many wives would con sign to the rag man the minute bia back waa turned, waa tbe bugbear in my path. What our new neighliora would think of my method of moving, and of tbe cargo William and the push cart -would carry, I didn't dare to think. I went swiftly to tbe kitchen the minuts I bad aeen the laat of my husband and bia relatives, and found Jim and Katie and William diacuaaing with great excitement the problem of the moving. "1 only could find one borae, Mrs, Gra ham," said Jim worriedly, "and he isn't vary strong. Ha can't pull a very heavy j load." William Trumbull beamed op at me ' HE COUNTY NEWS COTTAGE GROVE Cottage Grove, Or., Aug. 21. Dr. Wendt returned from Tillamook Tucvday. Mra.
