It is true that there are some Republicans who are not in sympathy with Mr. Wilson's Ideas, but many Repuolicans would be, if taken Into the President's con fidence. Close friends of the President be lieve it Is his duty, at least, to call into confidence Republicans of all shades of opinion and lay before them the programme he intends to pursue at the peace conference. The last suggestion probobly will not please the President, but the time is past when friends of Mr. Wilson out of mere respect for his likes and dislikes, can. afford to re main silent. One of the most curi ous features of the situation is that some of the men with whom I have talked to do not feel that they can very well tell Mr. Wilson the truth Some of them would be willing to tell him the truth about his loss of prestige in this country if he only gave them audience. Others would Just as soon write him their views D) 0) AT THE FARM OF Wm. Salzwedal 5 MILES WEST OF HEPPNER Wednesday, December 18, 1918 Beginning Promptly at 1 O'clock P. M.

But the majority of Presidtnt Wilson's friends are talking among them selves of the necessity of bringing forcibly to Mr. Wilson's attention that he is drifting away from t'.u jriginal precepts of openness and nauaging the Government in a per sona! and private way which does not square with his professions of lemorracy. Perhaps the most severe criticism 'ieard is of Mr. Wilson's decision to j to Europe at this critical time, .'obody begrudges the President a reat part in the settlement of the peace of the world, nor his remark able influence in bringing victory to Hie Allies; but the feeling of the men who are fond of the President iad who have the courage to tell cor espondents how they feel is that lie roated the American people with in iiii'orence when lie failed in hi3 first announcement to tell the exact pnr iso of his journey anil the provision he planned to make for the transac tion of 'public business in his ab sence. The revolt inside the Democratic party Is not of recent origin. It has been growing for several months, 3nd may explain the lukewarm ac tivity of many Democratic national committeemen in the recent election, many of whom felt a large part of the Republican criticism of the rec ord of the Democratic Congress was absolutely true, and that It was use less to try to make the people think otherwise. Mr. Wilson is considering the ap pointment of peace delegates. Some of the names mentioned have rankled in the minds of disinterested friends who want to see America ropresented by broad-minded and able men, instead of the same type of provincialism which has caused dissatisfaction throughout the coun try before. President Wilson may not know it, but the morale of his friends is at low ebb, There Is no rue but himself on whom responsi bility can be placed, and no one but himself who can restore the confl dence of the people in him at a time when he must neiris tell European statesmen,- skilled in the bargaining methods of thi Old World diplo mats, that he speaks for a united America, which doesn't want to see selfishness supersede a spirit of Jus tice at the peace table, and is par ticularly anxious that the sacrifices America has made shall not have been made in vain. SCHOOL SUPT. REPORT (Continued from Page two) finally to Washington, D. C. where it was put in the permanent exhibit as 'a sample of thrift work. Two local institute! were eld last year which were well attended and much interest manifested. The SpaniBh flu stopped our An nual Institute, in place of which, we propose holding two or three one day institutes, during the year. A three day institute means the loss of a week in some districts and we feel that time must be saved in order to complete the years' work. I hope the time is not far distant when our teachers will vote for the training school to take the pluco of a three day institute. I believe they will get more practical help. Wt would still have the lectures that we have at the Institute?. AnJ in ad dition the teacher could take an active par', la the dlscuMdiunq and exchange ideas. Owing vo the scarcity of teachers some of our schools were late in opening, but work is in full force now, and all together the school affairs of Morrow county are quite promisive, We have but one parent teachers' association in the county. This is an Important factor in its district, and as soon as war activities cease more will be organized. We have divided the county into zones and hope to have a number of community meetings before the close of school. The children's exhibit at the County Fair was creditable, but more than half of it was lost in trans portation to the State Fair which was a great disappointment because we fel assured of holding our place in Eastern Oregon if not capturing first prize. Died of Wounds. Paul Bucknum, former employe of Hie Eagle died of wounds In France. His mother at Baker was notified a few weeks ago that her son had been wounded. They proved fatal. Paul Bucknum Bpent his boyhood in Canyon, and a few years ago with his parents moved to Baker. Blue Mountain Eagle.

MIsm Barker at Stanflcld, Miss Beuhvh Barker has been en gaged to teach in the Stanfield school for the remainder of this school year. When the town or stanneid was started, nine years ago, Miss Barker was one of the first teachers in the schools there. Echo News.
