THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK, HEPPNER, OREGON Resources Over One Million Dollars. THE USAGES OF WAR. President Wilson ov.s it to himself and to the country to admit frankly that war serves a multitude of purposes for the Democratic party. Evil it may be and disastrous in its effects but it lias certainly saved the Administration a lot of fruitless explanation and argument. It has, for example, enabled the Democratic party to as severate, with rather noisy persistency, that there has been something Wilson has kept the country out of. It has enabled the benignant Mr. Retinoid, President Wil son's Secretary of Commerce, to explain why the cost of living is increasing. It is used by the same gentleman as the occasion for deny ing that the exportation of war supplies has anything to do with the country's properity. It has enabled the Administration to bolster up the failing revenue by levying a tax on munitions. It is used to demonstrate the sagaciousness of President Wilson in upholding the rights of American citizens on the high seas. It is given as the reason, by way of apology to the pacifists, for the belated recognition by the Administration of the need of preparedness. It affords a convenient explanation why anything in the last three years has gone wrong, although it accounts in no way for anything that has gone right. President Wilson may display an abhorrence of war but for liis campaign managers the word seems to have a seductive ant! cueering sound. LEGAL NOTICES. NOTICE TO CREDITORS.

McDIWEE, Sheriff of Morrow County, Ore. PROFESSIONAL COLUMN -t-t- DEMAND IS GROWING FOR AN EMBARGO ON WHEAT. It would be a rash prophet who ventured a confident prediction on the future prices of wheat. Not within the memory of living men have so many conflicting and erratic factors entered into the problem. Eastern United States is importing wheat from Argentina, while the Pacific Northwest is soon to export 100,000 bushels to Chili. Dakota and Minnesota mills are closing down for want of stocks of milling wheat. Drouth in Argentina is helping the bulls and the bears counter with the did chestnut about the impending release of Russian grain by the opening of the Dar danelles. Meanwhile the bilkers are cutting down the size ot loaves and conducting a growing agitation for a government embargo on export of wheat, ('(inventions held 'in New York, I'hiladt phia, Indiana, Michigan. Ohio and other states have passed resolutions urging President Wilson to exert his influence with congress for the enactment of an embargo law. In some of these resolutions the president is asked to con vince couuress in snecial session, but there will be "nothing doing" there. Mr. Wilson will have no desire to "start some thing" in these critical weeks of the presidential campaign, and congressman could not be dragged hack to Washington be fore November 7, even though the president had a million horse-power block and tackle to help him pull them in. The situation will bear watching, however, by the grain growers of the Pacific northwest. After the election is over, and Congress assembles in December, the demand for a law to prohibit the exporting of wheat will roll down on Washington with petitions signed by thousands of men and women, and the number may paf-s into the millions The Northwest will be po pular in the large cities of the land in New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, St. Louis, SanFrancisco, Los Angeles, and pos sibly in Portland and Seattle. Cheaper bread will be a popular slogan among the poor and those living on a narrow wage. It would be unpopular out in the open spaces of the bind, but the fact needs to be remembered that action there is slow, while action can lie ouiek in' the cities of the land. There is dantrer that coiiim-css tnav be led to believe that the voice of the nation is insistent and strong for the locking of our ports against the passing out of wheat. History, however, is against an embargo on the products of the United States, Congress tried it in the early years of the republic as retaliation for violation of our neutral rights by the belligerents in the Napoleonic wars. But is was highly unpopu lar and had soon to be given up. The present agitation for an embargo, however, is a move ment that needs to be watched if our farmers would not be caught napping when conflicting interests are very wide awake.
