November 11 1920 Armistice Day Two years ago the armistice between t h e warring nations went into effect. At eleven a. m. November 11, 1918. the order to stop fu mg was given. After four years the thunder o f the guns ceased and the dreadful carnage ended. What a relief it was to know that now our hoys were safe from being killed, wounded or taken prisoners. Then we thought that in a fewmonthsthe details of arranging for a perma nent pence would be completed, but after two years we are still in a state of armistice although <>ur European allies have made peace with the enemy. However, ii is now probable that formal peace will not long bp delayed. Hut when it comes we must re member that there can henofrue peace if it is merely artificial. It’ we really want a peace which will he enduring we must work for the rehabilitation of our former enemies as well as of France and Belgium our allies This will he easier for us than for either Eng land.

From the delusion that the state can do no wrong being unmoral, that might makes right and that solemn national covenants may be abandoned on the specious pretense of national peiil. Hut if we are to help her along this line. \\t must first look to ourselves ar.d set* that our own conduct is moral I \ sound, and that we are not open to the same repp tach.

Bruce Dennis, editor o f tfce La Grande Observer, has been elec ted state senator for the joint counties of Union and Wallowa, defeating that veteran politician Walter Pierce. We extend hearty congratulations to Bro. Dennis, who has attained flattering suc cess with his paper, which wields a powerful influence in Eastern Oregon, and we predict he will make himself felt ir. the senate. the President Now that the republicans have won such a signal victory, it is time that carping criticism of President Wilson should cease. No doubt, he feels more acutely than anyone else the defeat of his party, especially as it involved the repudiation of his ideals. Broken in body, saddened in spirit he should be regarded with commisseration. In the height o f the campaign words were used about him which were almost in excusable. It is a sad commen tary on our boasted civilization that the mistakes o f public ser vants are so magnified and ex coriated while the good they may have done is hardly noticed. It will not lie surprising if twenty years from now, President Wil son will receive a better recogni tion than at present, as by that time the good he has done will be more apparent. It is not with out probability, that some o f his actions which arc now reprobated, will then he vindicated. Anyhow the onus now lies on the repub lican leaders to correct his mis takes, and to take care lest in doing so, they make greater ones. Hats off to the President o f the United States, a man of like pas sions to ourselves, who through the past four years bore a burden of respos'hilitv greater than any on»* else in this land. No wonder he broke down. Bouquets are sent to the sick, not brickbats.

The Non Partisans met with disaster in the recent election, and Townleyism is now on the wane. Like other movements of the kind it is of an ephemeral chaiacter. and may be described as a brain storm.
