Oif:;ers of the American Legion have under ay a campaign for nemhe-sMp. Orepon has a large number of men v.ho are eligible end the oilicc-s have an ambition to bring the membership to well over the ten thousand mark. Those who are eligible for R,emhersh'F have so much in common that association holds out a promise of untold pleasures during all the years That delight ful association is impossible, save in the ranks of the Legion, an or ganization founded for God and Country, purely and vigorously American This campaign should be a success. The organization has a duty it owes to the disabled men and that duty will continue through the years, probably will become heavier and more import ant. It cannot be discharged save by the organized strength of all the men who were in the uniform during the World War. The Legion is the exponent of militant Ameri cansim and there is need for that to be taught and kept before the public continuously. Each mem ber continues to serve well his country by lending his aid and adding his voice to the chorus. It was the experience of the Grand Army of the Republic that growth was slow, not because men were not interested, but because they delayed action. It was many years before the G. A. R. pushed its membership to the high mark. The Legion will be the legitimate successor to the G. A. R. and will receive a heritage from that or ganization that makes member ship doubly desirable if the men eligible will give it consideration. Mr. Ex-Service Man, if you do mt belong, remember, the American Legion needs YOU. s-s-s Death Sentence for Criminals. Great Britain is considering the abolition of the noose ana substi tuting the use of coal gas as a means of officially killing cnmin als. In America, Lewis E. Lawes, warden of the far-famed Sing bing Prison, asks for a general revision of the penal statutes and the sentencing of all classes of convicted criminals to penal insti tutions without minimum or max mum period of punishment being fixed. He would substitute the in determinate sentence the period of punishment to be decided by a pardon board, non-political and of high minded and intelligent char acter. Thus, while Great Britain is considering how to continue the snuffing out of life, America's mind runs more to the thought that criminality is a condition that may be corrected under humane and scientific treatment. The great cry of those who hold to capital punishment is that it acts as a deterrent. Those who would abolish the death penalty, however, contend that capital crime is lower where the death penalty does not obtain. Some contend that while mankind may have the right to inflict punish- reason'ng it is hoped that out of ' 'thorn . ,!! m :: ! .,v,ii win vviut a luminal irviMon I of the statutes in the several states ' that will bring the administering of jusiee more into harmonv. s s-s Confidence Returns. Now " a long, strong pull," and business revival will go over with a wallop. All economists, except the professional pessimists who live on disaster and hard times, are agreed that the country is ready for a boom. Some even believe the boom will develop in- a sensation, but even the most to conservative thinkers are satisfied that the door of good times is now open. The natural tightening up as a result of pre-election fears and woeful tales has vanished. The people hold back for a month or two before election, predicting all kinds of trouble in the event of victory falling to the partv to which they are opposed, but as soon as the die is cast they join the sane Americans and realize that no matter what partv wins an election in this country, nothing can stop the growth and prosper- in- of America. The belief that good times are here, however, is based on more than sentiment. Comfort is found in the fact that there is a better balance between the prices of merchandise and agricultural in come. Next, employment shows improvement. Wages have not taken any drop to speak of. An other factor, European skies have been cleared. There is no doubt that the American solution of Germany's difficulties will prove most helpful. Then, too, it is pointed out, the railroads are in a better financial condition than they have been in some years. But best of all there is a restive desire for expansion and activity on the part of the people, and money never has been so plenti ful, which means business expan sion need not wait the loosening up of capital. s-s-s Back in 1921, on November 18, to be exact, it began snowing at Heppner and over Morrow coun ty, and continued until about noon on the Sunday following, leaving a covering of the beauti ful to the depth of 14 inches. This is the record as given in our files. This week there has been some snow fall here. As yet it has not reached out very far but there is reported to be some five or six inches on upper Willow creek, and a heavy snow fell on Freeze out the end of last week, reaching a depth of fifteen inches on the level, so we are informed. It be gins to look like a repetition of the November of 1921, and should this be the case, we can look for an abundance of moisture This is needed for the ultimate success of the farmers, as crops are de pending much upon it. The past season was exceedingly dry and a great amount of moisture is yet needed to make up the deficiency. Let 'er come. S-S-S There were some very close elec tion contests over in Gilliam coun ty, the race for both sheriff and clerk creating much interest. Sheriff Montague, running for re election on the republican ticket, was defeated by Melvin Logan of Willow creek, who as a democrat got into the fight rather late. Pern Brown defeated Charlie Morse of Arlington just two votes in the race for county clerk S-S-S- Dressmaking Bring your work to Mrs. Geo. Moore. All work gUarall- SI M MOS.
