NOTES J ' I The sirensth, energy and mirality of the American people, are affording the world a great deal of talk at the present time. England says we are wasteful, France calls us money grab bers, Germany, iu hitter envy, chima we arj too sharp but all agree that the Auencan people are not idle, when they are convinced that their interest is at stake. We Americans, are foroed to admit that mo.t of us are eo busy, trying to make each 50 cents earn a dollar, or more, thBt we , are to a grunt extent, shif'irg the duty of keeping our moral standarJ j at the highest possible notch. Frotn i time to time we aro reminded that i j is necessiry for us to forget mouey grabbing and work for the suppression i of evils that threaten to do4roy the 1 freedom of our people. I Every true American is a man of some kind of business and bia energy, I vnd most of bia time, is required to make a success of it, so the difficulty is to get his attentiou long enough to convince him that whether he be I reacherr teacher, lawy r. merchant, fruitgrower, or- day laborer, it )s a part of his business to see that lav si for the protection of his home be made and enforced, The good people of Josephine county have seen bcotivinced that it to the', best interest of all kinds if legitimate business to vote out the salocns and tbey have showed them selves tree Americans by doing so; bat there is s ill another duty to per form before protecticn is assured, and that is tbe enforcing of the law. i Some say "Let tbe officers do this.'.' Others sty: "I don't want to ' e a crank or kicker. But tbe majority are "just too busy" to bother about it, and so the laws remain Juneu- forced to a great extent. It la the business of every man in the county to help the officers enforce the law. If you can be a "crank," Be one, and getiumotioo, the united effort of a great many "Cranks" will make it easier to keep tbe wheel of moral progress going. A whole regiment of good, strong ''kickers" is just what is needed to rid our community of the evils that won't go out, without being kicked out. Be a kicker if you can. The busy man, if he has noth ing i earer his heart than his pocket hook, is to be pitied and excused trim helping in this work, fortunately there are rnly a few of this kind of men In a community. The rest of the busy men, when they realize that it is their business to help enforce the laws they helped make, will find time to do if. It is the business of every man in this town to see that the illegal liquor signs sre torn down. They are not needed ai monuments of the curse, Which has fo long ben robbing; the American pe'i le cf the freedom they so proudly boast. It is the busine-s of every mao to help expose and convict those who violate he law againrt this curse. It is the business of every man to remember that he is an Amotican and live uo to t' e titindard set for us by oth r nations. MRS. ORRA E. DICKEY.
