GOOD RIDDAStU The spectacular attempt made to assassinate Attorney General Pa' mer and many other public men In various parts of the "United Stales had at least one good effect. It hastened the long-contemplated de portation of dangerous aliens. It Is announced that doxens of an archists, I. W. W. and bolshevist agi tators and other internal enemies 'hare seen sent out of the country during the past month. Others are coing right along. This is in addi tion to the big shipload of alien ene miea interned during the war and re cently exported to their native lands. The deportations are carried out In compliance with a law enacted last October, which provides that "Aliens who are anarchistic; aliens who believe in or advocate the over throw by force or violence of the government of the United States, or of all forms of law; aliens who dis belleve in or are opposed to all forms of organized government; aliens "who advocate or teach the as sassination of public officials; aliens who advocate or teach the unlawful destruction of property, or aliens who belong to organizations which advocate or approve any of the above crimes, shall be deported from the United States." The law thus far has been applied gently rather than rigorously. There is little danger of its being abused; the spirit of American fairness and tolerance will see to that in the fu ture as it has in the past. It is to be expected Uiat the of fenders and their friends will raise vigorous protests, and the public must be on its guard lest it be de ceived. It is time to rid the country of this plague, and the belated ef forts of the government should be upheld by the active support of the public in every community affected. This is a free country, which can preserve its freedom only by stern elimination of foreign fanatics and malefactors who seek to destroy its free Institutions by violence and crime. FARM IMPLEMENTS A note in a recent government news letter, runs to this effect: "The average farm implement is only about half worn out by use fclone. The rest of the wear is due to rust and decay. Make the great est possible profit out of machinery y using it continuously for profit able work until It is worn out." This is good advice for all times of the year, but especially timely now when the harvests are in,, and ithe farm machinery which probahly was used continuously during the farming season must stand idle. If this machinery, before it is put away for the winter, is carefully overhauled, oiled and repaired, and then properly housed, it will be ready for use next season. On the contrary, if it is left standing in tarn yard or field unrepaired, un- Kitchen Boquet PASTRY BI'KIS l"OI I.TRY SPICK ONION SALT CKl.KHV SALT KINNEY & TRUAX GROCERY Quality and Service painted, unsheltered, it will be sub ject to the rust and decay mentioned above, and the owner will find him self under the unpleasant necessity of replacing it next summer. Any business man would be horri fied at a loss of 60 per cent in any branch of his touerinees. He would call in experts to rind the leak which caused such a condition. Sim ilarly the farmer who prefers to make 50 per rent ratber than to lose It will take care of his farm machin ery in and out of season. UILLHOAKra The state highway commissioner of New York has recently issued an order which will be greeted with ap proval by a great many people. It calls for the removal of all advertis ing signs placed along the state high ways on highway property. Every thing Is to go-latent medicine pos ters, "danger" signals kindly placed by commercial ty and bearing the names of the fc-ficent concerns. and all the rest. iDanger signals re moved because of their advertising nature wilt be , replaced by neat warnings posted by the highway de partment. County fair and Chautau qua posters will be permitted tem porarily. PROFITEERING The discovery of a few chunks of iron tinder some of the scales over which food is weighed in the county by the state inspector probably has something to do with the high cost of living. We find on In ventilation that freight rates are not as high here as at Grants Pass, neither are labor costs as high, yet food and other necessities are selling from 5 to 50 per cent higher here. If the local food commission is not a farce It will make a like Investi gation and at least make public a report of the findings. Del Norte Triplicate. .

For Worse" which I opens at the Oreeon theatre Wednes-i day has all the elements which go; to make a great photoplay, a bigj story, a fine all-star cast and one of the greatest directors in the game. ' The story brings to the foreground a'1 sympathetic heart intrest . note or I such intense dramatic strength as to i hold one breathless. It brings sharp-1 ly Into the foreground one of the great problems of the day the nta- tus in the estimation of his fellow-j men and women of the man who. stayed at home. Was he as much a patriot as the man who did his duty "over there?" This Is a question that affects nearly every family In the United States. j As the title indicates. It is also a story of married life which will be of compelling Interest to every worn-! an.

RRAYT8 P.4.M DA1LI OOtlUKM SHAH OF PERSIA WILL VISIT UNITED STATES l-omlon, Sept. 23. An anuouuee ment that the Shah of Persia is on his way to visit Iondon brought in timations In the newspapers that the government would accord him . an enthusiastic welcome and all the pomp and pageantry of the visit of that other Shah in Victorian days would be repeated. All this is now of no avail as the Persian legation announces that "the visit of the Shah is quite unofficial." It is considered improbable that the Shah is traveling with more than a few personal attendants, lie is said to be simple lu his tastes, and cannot afford to follow the tastes of his father who was accompanied by a brilliant staff of more than SO per sons. While In London he twill like ly be housed in the Persian legation. The recent agreement by which England becomes an important fac tor in Persian affairs makes the visit doubly important to the government. Later the Shah will visit the Unit ed States. IN MEMORY OF YANKS WHO FELL AT CANTIGNY Paris. Sept. 23. The memory of the American soldiers who fell at Cantlgny is to he perpetuated at Montdidier by the establishment of a municipal hospital constructed from American Red Cross biirracks. Over the entrance to the administra tion building will be an inscription reading: "Gift of the American Red Cross to the Town of Montdidier. In Memory of the American Soldiers Who Fell at Cajitigny." Cantigny, in the valley below Montdidier was the first American battlefield in France. In the begin ning of the allied advance last sum mer, the Americans raptured Can tigny against tremendous odds, ad vancing further than any other troops in taking it. Many Americans lie hurit-d on the hillsides about the town. The French country people are keeping the graves green, many of t tie fam ilies having "adopted" American iira'ves.
