To our !ar;xe lift of readers, we
wish to say that it is our intention
to follow out tlirt uishes of tlie War
Industries Commission to the letter.
Many arc ln-hind1 with us on the
payer, and we are trusting that It
is only ne.-csary to tall your at
tention to this raa:ter and you will
call at once anil seule up. We will
begin the mailing of statements this
week. This is done to lot you know
where you stand and we trust that
you will accept the invitation to pay
up and extend your subscription for
another year. Very many of the
sums are small but in the aggregate'
they amount to hundreds of dollars
to this paper and would help us very
materially in these strenuous times
to get by and keep up our expenses.
Numerous people, also have been
reading the paper for years, which
we have sent out to them in good
faith, and it is now time that a
settlement be made, the accounts
paid and our good fellowship con
tinued. If you feel that there is a
mistake of any kind in the bills sent,
please call and see us about it; we
will gladly make all proper adjust
ments. STAGGERING FIGURES.
One of the seven organizations
doing welfare work for the soldiers
overseas shiped to the men over
there during the period from July
1917 to August 1918, 1, 959,158
cans of fruit; 14,510,000 packages
of chewing gum; 848,785,802 cigar
ettes; 463,824 pounds of cocoa;
10,227,735 pounds of sugar; 551,
620 tubes of tooth paste; 31,279,020
pounds of flour; 2557,481 packages
of tobacco, 32,358,700 cigars and
1,665,120 cans of condensed milk, j
These figures show the need of
raising funds- to maintain the wo -k
of the welfare organizations which
serve to keep the morale of the
Allied armies at its topmost point.
The report in the Oregonian of
yesterday to the effect that Heppner
has 20 cases of Spanish influenza,
would not seem to be well founded,
and If it was sent in from here,
someboby must have confounded a
few slight colds with the real thing,
In fact, if there is or has been one
well developed case of the epidemic
in this town up to date, we have
been unable to ltarn of it. The
entire county is quite free from the
disease so far, and it is to be hoped
that our board of health may so
control the situation that there will
be nc serious cases.
THE KKPl 1U.ICAX DECLARATION
In an eloquent and characteristic
address Will Hayes, the dynamic
chairman of the Republican national
committee, delivered on Thursday at
Grand Uapids, he sounded again the
keynote of the Republican policy.
"The Republican party," he de
clared, "says to the country STAND
BY THE WAR. And in this declara
tion of purpose is Included the slogan
which the Democratic party seems to
have adopted, 'Stand by the Pres
ident.' a duty . which Republicans
have assumed as a matter of course
as to all that the great office implies
It includes far more than this; it
lucludes, Stand by every public
official, high or low, measured by
the war; stand by the governmeut;
stand by this country; stand by our
allies; stand by our soldiers in
France; stand by every effort for war
savrug and giving in this country;
stand by the cause for which we
fight; stand by 'the irreducible
minimum' of peace terms so sj leiid
idly enunciated by Senator Lodge;
s:and by the war aims of this
country to vindicate American rights,
interests, and honor, to forever end
the intolerable arrogance of that
scientifically trained brutality, to
forever end Prussianishi in the
world and the oppression which it
typifies, and make certain forever
the inability to militarism, German
or otherwise, again to disturb the
peace of the world; stand against an
inconclusive peace, and stand for a
peace with victory.
"All this we say Stand by the
war, and for this purpose we dedicate
the last of our blood and our treas
ure." Every Republican leader, every
Republican newspaper, every Repub
lican voter will applaud that declara
tion and stand by it to the eitd. As
Hays in another passage says:
'There is no geography, political or
physical, in the patriotism of this
country." We can confidently rely
upon our brother Americans of the
Democratic party membership, Each
party has weaklings and false prop
hets, but they do not represent the
hundred millions of loyal Americans
whose sons are fighting gloriously
for the country's name and the
world's cause, and whose every effort
is bent today upon the winning of
victory.
But Republicans are proud of the
record of their leaders and of their
representives In congress, and in
such part of the government activi
ties as they have been permitted to
direct and assist. And they Justly
resent the atempt of Democratic
politicians to cast the shadow of
disloyalty upon a party which was
born to fight for true Americanism
and for all Its days as in this present
crisis has "kept step with the flag
and marched to the music of the
union;" which in every crisis has
been the strong bulwark of American
pride and greattness.
Mr. Hayes has done well to chal
lenge the insincerity of these tactics
of unscrupulous politics and Republi
cans everywhere will welcome the
issue and go gladly to the people on
the record of their party leaders.
There has never been a time when
Republican leadership in the nation
has been more deserving of con
fidence or more needed in the high
councils of the nation. There has
never been a time when Republicans

WHERE PIERCE STANDS.
A number of officers and members
of the Central Oregon Good Govern
ment League have rushed Into print
with vehement denials of The Voter's
statement that it was organized by
men in sympathy with the Non-Par-lisau
League. We expected ilie
denials, and are exceedingly gratified
that the name of the Non-Partisan
League is so odious to former spon
sors. In the course of these frantic dis
.ii.imors, which in the main are
denunciatory of The Voter, are
:.u:;:ercus revelations of the depth cf
feeling of the new league leaders ana
of the ideals which the new league
apparently is formed to promote.
cm one of the published letters,
that of Roy Canterbury of Bend, we
quote:
"Walter M. Pierce spoke before
10,000 people in Bernd on Labor Day
and had no trouble in convincing
them where he stood. He made it
quite plain to the people of this sec
tion that the stunts pulled off at
Oregon City and Camas by armed
thugs employed to break the will of
:he members of organized labor on
strike there, could not be repeated
under the administration of a gov
ernor fair to organized labor, or a
governor with a spark of human feel
ing in his breast.
"Everyone knows that the thug
must go when Pierce becomes gover
nor of this state, and the majority Is
sure of his becoming governor In the
near future.
"If being true to the principles of
democracy is radicalism, then we are
it; If to organize against the kept
press and the rotten things that they
are continually pulling is radicalism,
then again we plead guilty." Ore-

INTERESTING REVELATION.
In connection with C. S. Jackson's
legal rate bill, Editor Bede recalls an
occurence at the session at which the
present legal rate bill was enacted.
Jackson's man, Friday, Attorney
Hagood, represented Jackson there.
He admitted that the legal rate bill
was a good one and a wise piece of
legislation. "If you will allow our
delinquent tax list bill to go through
without a fight, I will go before the
committee which is considering your
bill and tell them that It is one of
the best pieces of legislation ever
proposed to a legislature," are the
words Bede credits Hagood with
using.
Before the committee which al
lowed but 10 minutes for the dis
cussion of the bill Mr. Hagood used
more than the allotted time. Mr.
Bede asked for permission to ask but
one question as his part of the argu
ment. He then asked Mr. Hagood if
he had made the statement quoted
above. Evidently thinking a trade
was in sight Hagood admitted the
fact. The committee was astounded
by the admission and the legal rate
bill was Immediately reported out
favorably.
This law, which Jackson's author
ized representative once admitted to
be one of the best pieces of legis
lation ever proposed to a legislature,
is now held up to ridicule by the man
who once endorsed it.
The voters would.de well to gat at
the reason for such inconsistency.

Governor Withycombe has been
safe and sound. He has conducted
the state with credit through per
haps the most trying period of its
existence; he has thorough grasp of
all state matters, and we say frank
ly that he should be permitted to
continue to work and the state will
be the gainer. Hillsboro Independent.
"While a want of time precludes
any elaboration of the various mat
ters that may engage my endeavors,"
said Senator McNary at the time of
his appointment to the Senatorship,
"I shall advocate and enlist my ef
forts in behalf of National Equal
Suffrage and National prohibition, as
each of these measures has been
adopted by the people of the state
which I am selected to represent.
"I shall cooperate immediately
with any movement which has for
its purpose the suppression of
gambling and speculation in the
necessities of lite to the end that the
consuming public shall pay a fair
profit to the producer only."
On the same day, Oswald West
said: "If the pledges ho (Senator
McXary) has made to tho-people are
kept, and I am sure they will be, he
will unquestionably be returned to
the Senate at the next general eler
tion." Senator McNary has kept hU
every pledge. Ho voted for sub
mission of the National prohibition
amendment to tha Legislatures of
t'iia several states. He also voted
for National Equal Suffrage and has
ii .ircdnred a bill fixing the prices of
many essential commodities. Be
sides, he has a 100 per cent record
for supporting the President's war
program.
Senator McNary should be re
elected for the increased service he
will be able to render his state and
nation.

Walter M. Pierce, Democratic
nominee for Governor, is now busy
denying that he is a member of the
Non-Partisan League. The fact re
mains undisputed, however, that
Mr. Pierce attended, participated In
the discussions and served on, -the
legislative committee at the meeting
held in Portland Saturday, January
19, 1918, when the Non-Partisan
League in this state was organized.
Can it be that Walter is ashamed of
his company?
Morrow County had a stupendous
sum to raise In the Fourth Liberty
Loan drive; living up to her splendid
patriotic record, she has gone over
the top with a few thousand to the
good. On top of this our people
will come across with their quota in
the coming United War Work Cam
paign. No slackers here when it
comes to backing up Uncle Sam's
boys.

With a dignified simplicity of:
manner Governor Withycombe has
approached the affairs of state
cheerfully, though seriously, always
adhering to the common sense side
of business procedure, always en-
couraging the expansion of legiti
mate industries and always working
toward the development of a greater
and cleaner Oregon. He Is entitled
to re-election on his record, regard-;
less of politics.
Governor Withycombe was nomin
ated and elected on a platform of
greater development for Oregon, and
this platform has been consistently
followed during his administration.
He has made a particularly striking
record as a war governor, and the
eplendid spirit shown by Oregon in
all patriotic enterprises has been
faithfully reflected in the firmly pa
triotic stand taken by the state's
chief executive on every war issue
that has come up. Eugene Register.
