SIGSBEE STUDIO OVER OPERA HOUSE Heppner, Ore. see that the power of this country and the productivity of this country are raised to their absalute maximum and that absolutely nobody is allowed to stand in the way of it. "Our duty is to stand together night and day until the work Is fin ished." From President Wilson's Address to the American Federation of Labor. (Portland Journal) The arrival of Dr. Kerr in Oregon starts afresh the discussion of the offer made him to become president of the Kansas Agricultural College. The Kansas bid is an attractive proposition. The institution has an endowment of $900,000 a year. It stands in the front rank of institu tions of its kind. Its location nearer the center of things of the nation places It in closer touch with the big life of the nation. It has a splendid plant Its build ings are of stone and all Its physical arrangement of the first order. The salary of the president is $9000 and this, with the high repute of the in stitution, makes the offer from its board to Dr. Kerr an alluring pros pect for any man. The president whose place Dr. Kerr Is asked to fill resigned to accept the editorship of the weekly edition of a Kansas City newspaper at $12,000 a year, which shows something of the opportunities headship of that Institution opens up. No higher compliment could be paid the Oregon Agricultural college than Is carried In this call for its president to become president of the Kansas institution. No greater com mendation of agricultural progress in Oregon could be given than is con tained in the bid for President Kerr's services. . There could scarcely be a higher testimonial to the state itself than is this desire to transfer Dr. Kerr to the Kansas field. It is understood that the decision is soon to be made, and in many ways it is a decision of unusual grav ity. There is no known reason why Oregon should give over its educa tional brains to Kansas and take du- bious chances on finding substitute brains. There is no known reason why Oregon should surrender a de sirable thing that it has for the bene fit of another state. There is no known reason why Oregon, a state largely agricultural and with so much yet to do in agricultural development, should not have the best agricultural leadership obtainable. Kansas to the contrary notwithstanding. It would be a most difficult matter for Oregon to find another agricultur al college president of the Kerr : mould or of the Kerr powers, or of the Kerr genius. Those who know; much about such things believe him to he as able a college administrator as there is in America. The Kansas board of regents think so, for in its list of applicants for the position of fered Dr. Kerr without solicitation from him, are conspicuous educators from the leading institutions of the country. j It is what he has done with the Or- j egon Institution that has made Pres-; ident Kerr sought at Kansas. And : what he has done here has been ac complished within 10 years from a' fery small beginning. It is in a field oh the fringe of America, far remote from the center of things educational and affairs national. The provincial college of that dec ade back is one of a few of the great institutions from which advanced ag ricultural and scientific discovery and information are radiated. On ac count of its high repute, many states are sending young men to it for the training that will make them leaders in the field of American production. Its graduates are called for to take high educational positions in institu tions as far away as distant Maine and farthest Florida. It is conse quential to Oregon to have an insti tution that is looked upon as one of the few leaders of agricultural thought and progress in America. By what he has done, President Kerr knows what can be done, what it yet to be done and how to do it in Oregon. He knows better than any successor could know in years, the people, the places and the possibilit ies of this field. In this, there is the highest reason for the friends of the Oregon Agricultural college and the people of the state to make it clear to President Kerr that they need him and that they want him.

Any man in America or anywhere else that sup poses that the free industry and en terprise of the world can continue if the Pan-German plan is achieved'and German power fastened upon the world Is as fatuous as the dreamers in Russia. What I am oposed to is not the feeling of the paclfilsts but their stupidity. "If we are true friends of freedom of our own or anybody else's we will Time is the test of truth. And Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the test in Heppner. No Heppner resi dent who suffers backache, or annoy ing urinary ills can remain uncon vinced by this twice-told testimony. J. H. Cox, carpenter, Baltimore St., Heppner, says: "I seems that if I caught the least cold, I suffered from pain in my back. At times I simply couldn't move and had to stay in bed for a week or ten days. I used a great many medicines, but I can say that Doan's Kidney Pills did me more good than anything else. I haven't had an attack for sometime now." OVER SIX YEARS LATER Mr. Cox said: "It has been a long time since I have had any occasion to take a kidney medicine. I still consider Doan's Kidney Pills a good, reliable .medicine for backache and kidney uisoraers. Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mr. Cox has twice publicly recom mended. Poster-Mllburn Co., Mfgrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Gilbert Coats has purchased the city property of D. C. Gurdane, and with his family is moving Into the same this week. Mr. Coats Is now recovering from his recent severe illness. Our Loans To Other Nations. The United States has loaned to other nations engaged in the war with Germany something over three hill ion dollars, taking for the sums ad vanced the obligations of such na tions, bearing the same interest and maturing at the same time as the Liberty Loan Bonds. The wisdom of this policy is beyond question. By strengthening these na tions and making them as powerful and as. .effective as possible we are greatly ldtng In the shortening of the struggle; we are doing much to insure an ultimate victory; we are doing only that which it is our duty to do toward our allies in this tre mendous war against an autocracy which would debase and enslave all nations and men. The fact that If we did not advance this money much of the work which the allies are doing would have to be done with American money and A merican men establishes clearly the intelligence and wisdom of our policy, There is work to be done which re quires the expenditure of blood and treasure. In making these money ad vances to Great Britain, France, Italy and other nations we are lending money which will be returned to us instead of expending sums possibly as great, possibly greater, with no hope of return. In addition, we are saving the lives of American soldiers. No policy the American Govern ment has pursued Is wiser or more , truly economical and patriotic.
