After making a lampalgn of two months durnilon. during which he has covered much of the state outside of Multnomah County. 8. II. Huston candidate for United States Sonator, Is very much pleased with his pros pects. I'p to the present time bo has not held a public meeting nor spent any active time In his home county, Multnomah, where the heavy vote Is, but from this time on be will devote himself largely to rounding up his home county vote. Mr. Huston has lived in Multnomah COSBty for twelve years, ami feels that he Is well enough known to be able to carry bis home county with little work, but I xpects to carry it by 10,000 votes May 17. During the last year, perhaps fifteen to twenty thousand voters have located in MUltnomah County, having round employment In the shipyards, Many Of these are eiitlrelv unfumlllar with the Oregon system and with State politics Theee men have bad ex perience in industrial plants, and will only need to be shown Senator Hus ton's record on soda! legislation to see the wisdom Of voting for him in the Primaries. Senator Huston begad bis work In Oregon and Washington County, and friends living at lllllshoro and Forest Crovo say that be will carry Wash ington County with not less than 71 per rent or the Republican vote. And speaking about politics. Senator Huston is making his campaign first as an American citizen and second as a Republican who favors support lag the Admlnltrallon during the war and otherwise stands for Republican policies. Voters who have not registered should lose no time in reglsti ring, and those who have registered but who have mocd from their home precinct should bS Careful tO have their registration changed before April la THANK HMAVBIf. At last, thank heaven, c IS the nens thai our little American army at the front has In en put absolutely at the disposal of the French and English military leaders for use or any kind in the gigantic and terrible battle now being waged. All Ainerl CUBS who are proud or the great name of America will humbly and reverently thank heaven that at any rate the army we have tit the front is not to remain In the position of an onlooker, but is to be put Into tie- battle.

Thank Heaven that our sons and bro thers are now to stand at Armsged don. Thank Heaven that American sold iers are now to fight In the great bat tle against the bestial foe or America and of mankind. Words count for little at this time and for nothing whatever except In mi lac as they are of help to the men of deeds who are nt the front who are now making nil Americans, born and unborn, forever their debtors. The) are the men who base paid with their bodies for their soul s desire. LOl B0 one pity them, whatever their fate, for they have seen the mighty days ami have risen level to the need of the mighty days.. And let no one pity the wives and mothers and fatb ers, whose husbands and lovers and sons now face death in battle for the mightest of all high causes. . Our hearts are wrung with sorrow and anxiety, but our beads are held aloft with pride. It Is a terrible thing that our loved ones should face the groat danger, but It would be a far more terrible thing. If, whatever the danger they were not treading the hard pnth of duty and honor. Ex. 0 WILD Kt'MOHM. The circulating of extravagant rumors and wild tales of victory Is harmful to the Interests of this noun try In the present struggle as the spreading or adverse reports, Re oetitlv the report was flashed from Otto end of the- country to the other of t lu great allied victory on the western front, in many parts of the country people went fairly wild wltli joy, only to lie cast Into correspond ing depths of dejection on learning that the report was unrounded. our pi ople should give ear to no reports that do not come from a reliable source. Telegraphic news lit the papers, from reputable now agencies, can be relied unoii as be ing comet, or approximately so. The metropolitan d J lie a as a rule have reliable speel.il correspond! tits on the front, and their reports also can be received as truth.

Don't gel the wrong angle- on this "Liberty Loan'' son. It doesn't mean that YOU must do tho loaning. It mean that your government proposes to loan to you the opportunity of in vesting your spare means In a pro position as sound as tho Rock of Ages. It means that the opportuni ty of your life is offered you to gath er yourself your portion of national honor and glory. It means that pro bably for tho first time In your rath er careless life you have tho chance to become a really necessary cog In the great wheel of progress. It's the turning point In your life, son.
