THE A U R O R A O B S E R V E R THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1919. N . C. WESCOTT - - - - - E ditor and P ublisher Entered as second class matter March 28, 1911, at the postoffice at Aurora Oregon, under the A ct o f March 3, 1879. s The Astoria News, the official paper of the Astoria Central Labor Council, has gone out of business. It at tacked the Astoria American Legion, an organization of returned soldiers, sailors and marines. The Astoria busi ness men withdrew their patronage from the paper, and the conservative element of the labor council ordered its publication suspended. The Astoria Legion is an organ ization alive to the problems and perils of the hour, and will have the support of all good citizens of Oregon in their war upon the alien slacker and his kind. The alien who wants to live in America rather than his own country must assume the obligations his residence here imposes— or get out. Loyal Oregonians and Americans everywhere will back the Astoria Legion to the limit. The war added $20,000,000.000 to the public debt of the United States. The railroad brotherhood plan of conducting the railways would add another twenty billions to the burden. A fellow in Idaho has written a book “ How To Make Money Farming” . An Aurora farmer who has read the book says it is the most entertaining piece of fiction he ever read. “ Tip Humphrey, editor of the Jefferson Review, says there are a few families in every community that do not take their home paper—but they always read it. “ Tip” thinks all places are like Jefferson, but they’re not—be cause there’s only one “ Tip” Humphrey! Many farmers claim the government guarantee of $2.26 per bushel for wheat is too low and that if the guar antee were repealed, the price of- wheat would go up Still others fear that the removal of the .guarantee would cause the price to drop. It is quite evident that whatever is done about it, the result will not suit everybody. Low ering prices cuts into someone’s revenue. On the other hand, raising prices cuts into everyone’s income. Hence the average man is likely to raise objection in either case for what suits the producer does not always, suit the consumer. IN THE CO UN TY COURT OF THE THE USES OF LAW.

Grain Corporation at Portland, announces that the purchaser of wheat direct from farmers, for the purpose of resale or manufacture (no matter how small the quantity) cannot be considered a retail transaction, and that persons engaged in such op eration must have a license. Also that the handling of seed wheat (no matter how small the quantity) cannot be considered a retail transaction, and such dealers must have a license. Dealers in damaged wheat(unfit for hu- . man consumption), who purchase direct from farmers, must also have a license. Retail dealers who purchase- wheat wholly from licensed operators are not required’to have a license. Senator Borah is an unyielding advocate o f the policy of isolation for America and a bitter foe of the League of Nations on the ground that it would involve the United States in European and Asiatic controversies, yet he is quite willing to go to war with Japan over Shantung, as he made clear when he said in the course of his attack on the Shantung provision of the treaty of peace: “ If war is the only alternative, I am ready to face it, and we might as well face it now.” That is the direction in which every opponent of the league is facem g—for the Borah policy means war and more war. At the same time, they and their supporters, set up the cry that the League of Nations is a “ league for war” . Unless they offer some thing better it will be difficult to justify their attitude should it result in the rejection of the treaty and the dis ruption of the league plan. One of the chief objections to the League of Nations, by its opponents, is that it will bind us to maintain the political integrity of other nations, yet the Monroe Doctrine (which the opponents of the league say is not sufficiently safe guarded) warned European nations (and all the world) that we would and jwill go to war if neces sary to maintain the political integrity of the South American nations. Monroe’s declaration was based upon o ir national needs. It was not formulated for the bene fit of South America, but for the safety of the United States. Similarly, our interest in the league is not be cause it will benefit Europe, but because it will benefit us. It’s chief object is _ to prevent military aggression. Military dominance by one European over others menaces our peace and safety today as much as the Holy Alliance did in Monroe’s day,and all our hopes for the future peace, safety and happiness of the nations of the would rest up on the prevention of military aggression, and the League of Nations is the only plan in sight that promises any hope of success. The common people are ready and willing to try it. ervice Is Our Slogan afety Is Our Watchword It is an old saying that the house will not build the barn but the barn will build the house.
