Hon. Fred. Kern, editor of the Bel leville, Ills., News-Democrat, in an editorial in his issue of August 21, made a stand for patriotism and loy alty so self evident that it deserve publicity in every paper in the Uni ted States. Fred J. Kern is a full blooded, natural-born German. He publishes a paper in Belleville, a community with a large percentage of German-American population. Here are a few of the things he has to say: Wo meet men who were born and raised in this country every day who talk seriously and repeat the thread bare pro-German arguments which they derive either directly or Indirect ly from the German language press published In this country. The editors of these same newspa pers are not loyal to this country. Most of them are not even nature ized citizens of the United States. Some are spies who ought to be shot. Others are alien knockers who ougnt to be deported. Still others are traitors or copperheads. They were not for this country b' fore the war started. We have Bat in saloons with them and talked with them for hours. They try to belittle every Institution and other things that exist in the United States. From the government and the flag and the laws and the American people to the city .and the rabbits and the birds and the grapes and the peaches and the prunes and the food and the amuse ments and the drinks and the insti tutions. Nothing in this country is good eough for them. When you hear these conceited braggarts talk everything In finer and bigger and better In Germany than it is in the United States. They talk as if it were a punish ment for them to remain in the Uni ted States,. a sort of banishment; still they stick with the tenacity of ticks. They never go back. But they bite he hand that feeds them, like the cur in the story, to borrow the words of the now famous popular song. These fellows talk socialism and even anarchism, but when they arn't kissing the dust at the feet of the Kaiser they are carrying cobs not on ly for the toadies and the flunkies of royalty who write the "Von" between their first and last names. We never saw a "Herr Von" yet who wasn't a down. right deadbeat. They are a lazy lot of loafers and vagabonds. Our parents who were both born in Germany taught us from our earliest boyhood years to keep our hand on our pocketbook when one of these Adelege Herren, or sprouts of the stuck-up, arrogant, brow-beating German nobility was around the neighborhood anywhere, and to avoid and shun him like a rattler. America la our country. Here Is where we were born and where our wife and children were born. This country has been mighty good to us. It threw open the doors of op portunity and bade us enter. It gave us liberty. Under the protecting wings of the American eagle we enjoyed security and peace, until the German warlord and overlord and autocrat and aristo crat and despot, whose progenitors drove our parents out of Germany and away from their homes, "lifted the lid off of hell" and commenced the sanguinary saturnalia and orgy of flendlshness and bestiality which des troyed the tranquillity of the world, and drenched France and Russia and the Balkan States of Europe in blood and converted Belgium 'into the worst human slaughterhouse of which history makes any record. Wilhelm Hohenzollern dragged the United States into war. We stayed out of war as long as we could, but now that we are In It we i "ill fight to a finish. The German Junkers will awaken , c fcU una our. in SI A mrlr Is nn nnnaft- i tity and no cipher in the fray aa they predicted that our country would be. America will throw the fear of the Lord into these international bullies, from crossed banditti, piratical ad venturers and kalserbund cob car riers. American soldiers will make his tory in Europe. There Is no other alternative left us. In six years from now America will have the most magnificent army of men in the field that the sun ever shone upon. They will be the liberators of Eu-J rope and the world. The name of every man In It will be inscribed on the muster roll of im mortality. Thrones will crumble in every lanu where the stars and stripes are un furled. Liberty and Justice and free insti tutions will be the heritage which the American troops will leave in Europe on their departure for the glorious home coming crowned with the laur els and carrying branches of olives. Where are you in this fight? Are you with us or against us? Can you afford to be anything but a genuine American? i Are you giving your country whole hearted support? Are there streaks of yellow in your make-up, or at least streaks that are not white? Have you the brand of Judas or of Benedict Arnold, on your craven and guilty brow? Are you plotting to shoot the Am erican soldiers who are going to the front in the backs by aeitatlne again. s't the cause and the country for wnicn they are willing and ready to sacrifice everything they hold dear to life and to suffer privation, wounds and to die? Are you true or would you betray your Uncle Sam? If so well, the law forbids us to finish this sentence in print. Double cross your friends and your own family if you are double crossed and must double cross somebody, but don't double cross your country. Be loyal and right or get out. You are both a fool and a knave if if you are not on the square, with the Liberty Loan Bonds A Safe Investment A Great Duty ! Liberty Bonds ARE safe. The dollar in your pocket, the land you own is no safer! How can you hesitate to buy? Don't ask yourself ."How much can I spare?" Say "How much can I raise?" BUY U. S. GOVERNMENT BONDS the best and safest invest ment you can make. Buy to your utmost limit! Insure Democracy for yourself, your family, your Country, your Race. BUY U. S. GOVERNMENT BONDS NOW! This space contributed by Standard Oil Company (California) land, either of your adoption or your birth. This country is true to the coclors and American men and women will ostracise you, if they will not do wor se things to you, if you are false, in your own heart even. You ain't fooling anybody but your self. You won't be permitted to use your rantankerous mouth and to shoot off your runaway bazoo In wir time like a soapbox bunksllnger, reviling your country and its institutions and lying about its public men, then hide un der the cloak of the very liberty which you would help murder oft and throw to the dogs by playing into the greedy, grasping hands of the militar istic rulers of imperial Germany. A man who is false to his own country and his own flag to the extent of being a copperhead or a traitor is a rank criminal and belongs to the criminal class.

Heppner Water is All Right The city health officer, Dr. A. D. McMurdo, has received a report from the State Health Department on the several samples of water sent down for examination last week. These ' samples were taken from the mains in various parts of town so that the entire water system might be repre sented, and the report of the State health officer is as follows: "Neither gas nor colon bacilli re covered upon 72 hours Incubation. I ROBERT E. L. HOLT, I State Health Officer." This is published by request of the committee on health and police of the city of Heppner, who had issued war--ning notices to the public to boll all water before using it, as much sick ness going the rounds was attributed to the bud condition of the Heppner has just arrived. Come in and pick early. Pearson TAILOR 1 water. Just where this information came from, this paper was not able to learn definitely, but the report was , j current that the water had been es , amined by some one and found to contain many typhoid germs. We ' are glad to be able to inform the pub lic at this time that these statements were not apparently founded on facts, though no blame should attach to the city health officials for taking the pre caution that they did based upon the information that they had at hand at the time.
