Probably showers; cooler on 4 Thursday in southwest portion; moderate southerly winds. THE RIGHT MXMOINE Many writers and people of na tional prominence, including Presi dent Wilson, have often asserted that the only successful way to meet , Bolshevism and stamp It out is to giro the people an abundance ot food and keep them well clothed; In fact the president said that was the only way Russia could be won orer from the Red terror. Recent developments nave proven the assertion a fallacy. Bolshevism la not a condition produced by hun ger; it la a condition ot the mind all the tanlt ia in the head and Ole Hanson of Seattle has shown the people how to meet the menace.Thoee Seattle Reds were not hungry. They had fat jobs. And over in Russia where looting, arson and wholesale murder are the daily pastimes with the Reds, there is an abundance of food among the bolshevik forces In moet ot the districts food ' stolen from the helpless there being so much butter in some localities that soldiers are using it for boot grease. The way to wipe out bolshevlsm is to give their teachings and acts pitiless publicity and follow Mayor Hanson's example. The disease is in the head, not the belly. $uy a jPerfect House .Broom for 35c TRY LIGHTHOUSE CI.KAXSKH KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality First WHEN, RIFLE BURSTS ii LIFE" IS ii Maurice Tourneur, famous through his production of "The Whip" for tho screen, ia also the creator ot "Sporting Lite." Mr. Tourneur, in fact, looks upon "Sporting life" as a sort of companion play to "The Whip." While the stories are distinctly different, both are Drury Lane melo dramas, Cecil Raleigh, the author of "The Whip," ia one of the authors of "Sporting Life," and both melo dramas revolve around a famous race horse. - "I believe that 'Sporting Ufe' Is the greater melodrania," says Mr. Tourneur. "It was probably the most popular melodrama ever stag ed at the famous Drury Lane, large ly due to the fact of its extreme nov elty of scene and situation. The thrills of 'Sporting Life' are abso lutely unhackeneyed. The big scene. In fact, la a reproduction of the epic of the English turf, the Derby." Seattle boilermakers have given notice that they are going to demand a six-hour day. Thus the government ownership bug is cultivated and thrives under the delusion that the lulling off of all private Industry means abort hours and fat salaries. The country will not forge ahea.l un til this bag is killed and capital and labor' concede that their Interests axe mutual. Why should we negotiate peace terms with Germany? Speed the day when peace Is enforced. If Foch had had his way, peace would have been signed up before the first of the present year. Turkey is in the hands of the so "viets.

By the way, Grants Pass has one place of public gather ing that ia a veritable fire trap. No use keeping it in the dark it's a fact.

You can at least take a email one even if you are working for wages. Time waits on no man. Will this part of the Rogue River valley tie nnder Irrigation by next year. London, Mar. 20, (Correspondence of the Associated Press) The Brit ish farmer is suffering from the fact that the government had stacked the granaries ot Great Britain with wheat in preparation for a great spring offensive against the Germans this year.

Lord Ernlo, formerly Robert E. Prothero, president of the board of- agriculture, said, "I do not know that I am revealing a secret when I say that the government Intended, if the mar had not (finished in No vember, to make its great 'push' about this time. In this month or next month we should have tried to place on the western front the whole force of the allies we could com mand and should have tried to bring the war to a conclusion this summer. "For that purpose we wanted the absolute control of all the tonnage we could get. We wanted every ship to be tree to bring over muni tions, food and everything else w. the army required. For that reason we brought Into this country a large quantity ot food supplies. It our shipping was to be engaged In bring ing over food to this country In the middle of that military push we should have been hampered. "The consequence waa. that we filled the granaries of this .country with wheat in order that we should be free for this great mllftary enter prise. You cannot alter youl plans in a tew hours. The wheat is now being passed into consumption 'as quickly as possible.' " BAD MEN'S NAMES WERE POSTED ON BIG STOMP El Paso, Tex., Apr. 21.
