Established November 18. 1897; CONSOLIDATED FEBRUARY 15, 1915. Published every Thursday morning by TiWTSl and SPENCER CRAWFORD and entered at the Post Office at Hepp ner, Oregon, as second-class matter. ADVERTISING BATES GIVES ON APPLICATION. SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year Six Months $2.00 LOO .75 .05 Three Months . Single Copies Official Paper for Morrow County. Foreign Advertising Representative AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION MORE HATS IN RING. THE list of candidates is growing. During the week the candidacy of Clarence Bauman, young Legion aire of this city, has been announc ed for the office of sheriff on the republican ticket, making two as pirants so far for this place, the other being Commissioner Bleak man. This week Walter Matteson, a native son of Morrow county, asks for the nomination to this office on the democratic ticket and it is not thought likely he will have an op ponent, so his nomination is secure. The political pot is only simmering at present, but not many weeks hence we can look for the situation to liven up, as the friends of each aspirant begin to pull their coats and get into the fray. Political campaigns in this coun ty, however, have been rather tame affairs, compared to what they were some twenty-five years ago. In those "good old days" it meant a real struggle to win an office, and both county and state campaigns were bitterly contested. It might prove more beneficial to the public if the general electorate could be aroused to a similar interest these modern times. YOC MUST REGISTER. VOTERS must be registered by April 17th, otherwise they will not be allowed to vote at the pri mary election on May 18. The pro visions of the law heretofore that allowed a voter to be sworn in on election day, has been repealed, and if you want to be allowed to cast your vote on that date and your name is not on the registration lists you will be disappointed. Due notice will be made from the office of the county clerk, and the information will be conveyed by full publication in the newspapers, yet there will be those who will put off the duty of registration, and will go to the polls expecting to have their vote sworn in as heretofore. Get busy now and straighten up your registration, and know that you can vote when the election is on; you may very much desire to exercise your privilege as a citizen on this day, but will be left if you have failed in this particular. ACTION COMMENDABLE. THE action of Hal E. Hoss in re , 1 signing his position as private secretary to Governor Patterson be fore beginning an active campaign for the office of secretary of state should meet with the approval of every person who believes in high Ideals in public office. In submit ting his resignation Mr. Hoss states that he does so in order that he will not use time for which the public is paying to further his candidacy for the office. Mr. Hoss does not be lieve that campaigns for office should be made i at state expense, but that candidates should separ ate themselves from public office be fore becoming active Milton Eagle. The action of Mr. Hoss is cer tainly commendable and leaves him free to make a vigorous campaign for the office he seeks, and he will have to meet no embarrassment be cause of official Incumbrance.

We see where we have made mistakes, and see in the clutches of what untoward things we have been caught, and we would like to start again with the new knowledge we possess. Most resolutions that are formed are useless because they have not enough steam behind them. We haven't the power to carry them into effect The one motivating power that we all have at hand and which we can call on in any emergency is love. Love something. Find something or somebody that you love. Make your resolu tion for the sake of that love and backed by it A resolution that is purely intellectual or purely from the will is not of as much value as one which is backed by the power of a supreme love. It may be the love of a mother that you have neglected so far but for whom you really feel strong affection. It may be love of a. wife, or children, or a friend. Whatever it Is, it Is a life buoy for your sinking will. Lay hold of it and it will keep you up. As well try to run a locomotive without steam or an automobile without gasoline as try to steer your life without love. It is the motive power that underlies the will. All of us love something. Search your heart for some object upon which you can center all your affection and by that love you shall be saved. Love is the keeping of all the Commandments and love is the true savior of man. We remember an instance in the Scriptures of a woman who was a great sinner, but who was pardoned because she loved much. Love is the only thing that counterbalances our wrong-doings. All conclusions that are reached by anything else than love are falsehood. Love sees and understands. Hate is blind. PEOPLE WANT THE TRUTH. JOHN D. ROCKEFELLER, JR., is J to be congratulated on his action in taking the witness stand in the oil investigation and telling what he knew. Mr. Rockefeller demands the truth for "the sake of American Business." The people demand the truth. For years they have been hearing and reading about this oil scandal and yet after all this time it seems that many of the facts re main carefully hidden. Mr. Rockefeller understands that this condition harms both business and the government So, Mr. Rocke feller not only asked Colonel Stew art to place whatever information he might have in the hands of the investigators but followed this good advice through by taking the stand himself and answering all questions the investigators asked. This attitude on the part of Mr. Rockefeller will be wholeheartedly applauded by the people at large who want to know the truth that lies somewhere beneath all this talking. Since Mr. Rockefeller has shown he is willing, even eager, to have the truth brought to light, the pub lic generally will thank him and will respect him the more. SOUND ADVICE ON TARIFF. IN A RECENT statement on the tariff, Representative Tilson of Connecticut ssid: "A protective tariff has become the accepted American policy. While rates may well be changed as conditions change, the policy it self should not be altered or endan gered. "The tariff is in fact a business matter and any revision of it should be made in as nearly a business manner as possible. It should not be undertaken except under favor able circumstances, because even when carried out under the most fa vorable conditions there is apt to re sult some business disturbance. "Such revision should be removed as far as possible from the influence of politics and carried on as nearly as possible on business principles." Many of our industries, our farm ers and our laboring men would not have a chance against cheap-labor foreign competitors if they were not protected by a tariff to equalize costs of production. is Losing His Patience PASS Legislation the banks a Paternalistic, Pcwe For. me And f DONT CARE A WHAT YOU CALL IT START. WASHINGTON'S GREATNESS. TOO many of the writers who seek to assay the greatness of George Washington look upon him either as a super-human being who should be venerated even more highly than he is, or else as an idol that needs to be smashed. Naturally, when these writers set out with such pre conceived notions, Washington the man tends to be overlooked. For tunately, a few recent writers have paid more attention to Washington, the man. To such writers Washington dur ing his remakrable career furnished a great deal of material. Consider, for example, Washingtons versa tility. He was athlete, surveyor, woodsman, business man, soldier, tactician, statesman and these by no means exhaust the list. Too, he was far above the average in all these various things he did at some time or other during- his full life. As a business man, for instance, Washington was one of the richest men of his time in this country. In other words, almost anything Washington set out to do he mas tered. His will to do carried him through. His greatness did not con sist in doing only one thing well. After the game is over After the shouting is done The date that grates on me Is the girl who says: "Which won?" But far worse still is the wise guy (I'll kill the son-of-a-gun). When I tell him I've had a hair cut Pipes up and says: "Which one?" Officer: "My man, why do you hold on to that lamp post?" Drunk: "Hie it tried to walk away, oshiffer, an' I 'ust ashed it to tak' me home." Madame: "Home, Andre, and have many asked who owned my stunning new motor?" Andre: "Not a one, Madame." Madame: "Heavens! A whole afternoon wasted!" By Albert T. Reid You Guaranty' earnimgs Tothe Rail roads And call itequalization', AmD You call a Special Plan to. , Federal Reserve system. Some of the most thrilling maga zine fiction Is found in the adver tisements. The guy I hate is O. B. Ware.

Arthur Brisbane Canada Our Friend. Anti-Third Term. Ultra Simple Divorce. Mussolini's "I Will." Secretary of State Kellogg has been In Canada, well received, and heard Canadian statesmen say there is no danger of our country trying to annex Canada. That annexation Idea is old and foolish. The United States is glad to have a good peace maker and finds it in the people of Canada. Also, Canada is our best custom er, buying here more than the Brit ish mother country buys. For sev eral months in 1927 Canada was the best customer we had in the world. We helped the Canadian North west, as we did all countries, by supplying a short cut through the Panama Canal. Canada reciprocates by buying of us. When the St Lawrence Canal goes through, both nations will be better off. Friendship, co-operation, constructive competition should be the programme. The Senate will pass some kind of anti-third-term bill, making two terms the law, instead of a tradi tion. It should be two ELECTED terms. A man elected once should have a second term in mind. No matter how good he is, that makes him' a better President Gratitude is a sense of favors to come. Senator Borah advocates only one term, a mistake. It takes a President one term to get over the excitjment of being President and get down to real work. Two terms by election of the people would be a good rule. Germany proposes a law to make "a simple wish" sufficient ground lor divorce. It would not be necessary to prove guilt Wife or husband can say, "A continuation of my mar ried life has becsme impossible.' That will end It , The couple must live apart one year before getting the divorce. When no guilt is proved, there will be no alimony. The richer of the two will be expected to help the poorer. That makes our "companionate" marriage quite conservative. Mussolini continues simplifying Italy's government which in sub stance is the expression of Musso lini's "I will." Only one political party is to exist. Only those will vote "who contribute to the prog ress of the nation." The number of deputies will be reduced from 560 to 400. It would be simpler to let Mussolini cast one vote for the whole nation.' That Is what happens in reality. If a dog bites a man we ignore It If a man bites a dog that's news. Amos Cummings said it long ago and Dr. Wood said it before Cum mings did. Often you read of a dog killed) defending his master, shot by a burglar, etc. That is hardly news. Now you read that Vincent J. Mc Carthy was killed by stab wounds while defending his dog. That is news. At Pvockville, Conn., a white girl, nineteen years old, descendant of a general on the Southern side in the Civil War, also claiming ancestors on the Mayflower, secures a license to marry a mulatto. The girl's mother consents because she thinks it is "for the best interest of the couple." Intelligent men, white and black, will agree that that is decidedly AGAINST the interest of both the man and the woman, and all of both races. The poor Heine felt differently about it long ago. Shocked to hear that a white clergyman was to be tarred and feathered because he allowed his daughter to marry a negro, Heine exclaimed: O! Frel- belt, due Doeser Traum! "Oh, Free dom, thou wicked dream." A young woman, well educated, married to a scoundrel, followed him and his fortunes, and will soon be hanged with him in Canada. She was with him when he murdered a taxicab driver. An effort is made to save her from the gallows and the girl amazes her friends, saying she does not want to be saved. "If he hangs, I want to hang with him." That should amaze nobody It might be amazing if a man said It A woman is willing to be burned with her children, or hanged with her husband, when she likes him. It io part of the female disposition. By THERE'S" SOMETHING OREGON IS H An Editorial Article By W. G. IDE. New York has more than ten mil lion people, Pennsylvania eight mil lion, Illinois six million. They are the three largest and most import ant states In the union. They have more people, more capital, more commerce and more business than other states. Do these three states excel Ore gon In resources? Oregon has an efficient ocean port and inland waterways that are a perpetual guarantee of equitable rates for the distribution of her products to world markets. She has millions of acres of productive un developed soil, which, brought un der production, would build linen mills, woolen mills, meat packing plants, canneries, preserving plants, cheese factories, creameries, ware houses and cold storage plants. Who will give Impetus to the soil's development? Oregon has undeveloped electrical energy that would furnish cheap power for industrial expansion, tim ber for vast wood-working plants, paper and pulp mills, chemical plants and dozens of kindred prod ucts. Who fosters such expansion? Oregon's mineral resources, one of her most wonderful assets, are awaiting the employment of engin eering skill and capital. Oregon has the four fundamentals of water, cli mate, soil and location, unequaled anywhere in the world all of the great natural resources impossible for man to supply. Can New York, Pennsylvania or Illinois boast of more? Oregon needs only what is easiest to get what her neighbors have and are getting more man-power, capital and cooperation. We can develop Oregon by the adoption of a state-wide sound and logical program and by selling to every man and woman this slogan, "It is a part of my business to help build my community." Agriculture is our greatest basic industry. Therefore we want more farmers of the kind who will pro duce quality products, for which Oregon is particularly adapted. Who brings more farmers of that kind here? Organize, standardize and adver tise these products. The markets of the world have never been glut ted with a standardized, quality product. We can get more farmers by tell ing the thousands who are now liv ing in a one-crop country, produc ing a surplus of a single crop that is hard to sell and are therefore dissatisfied. Stories need to be told of Oregon's diversified crops, long growing season, water and rail transportation, splendid highway system, recreational advantages and the wonderful chance to live the life to which al) look forward Who tells that story? Show the farmer and his wife the relation of elecrticity to agriculture, Tell them how, with the harnessing of our latent electrical power, every farm can be fully electrified at low cost and a home on the farm equip ped with all the modern conven iences at a cost that they can afford to pay. WhoOl do that? Business men, through their local chamber of commerce, should study the marketing problems of the far mer and help him own his market ing machinery as far as it is prac tical and economic. Only through" this method can the cost of adver tising and marketing of our pro ducts be accomplished in a large way at a reasonable price to the producer. COLLECTIVE EFFORT NECESSARY. Oregon's business can be no greater than the buying power of her producers. Land and climate are assets only when in production, Crystallized public opinion, express ed through a central point of con tact, is the only way to focus the power of the state to the point of accomplishment No community or county can hope to reach full devel opment except as a unit in the dev elopment of the state as a whole. What shall that central point of .contact be? New farmers and more produc tion of raw material to bring mbre Industries can only be secured thru the collective effort of all of our people in the upbuilding of Oregon. We must not be merely a cog in the wheel. We must be a unit in the motive power. The principle of building the bus iness of a ftate is the same as that employed in building a private bus iness, and it requires not only the financial assistance but a certain amount of time and effort on the part of the partners of that busi ness. Those partners are the sub stantial citizens of each community. Thirty-five loading states main tain state chambers of commerce or other organizations performing a similar function. The Washington State Chamber has a program to raise $100,000 for state development In 1928. The Idaho State Chamber has obtained during the past year a membership of over 1200 by an aggressive campaign. The Califor nia Development association (the state chamber) is financed for $25, 000 a year, and the Sacramento Re gional Citizens' council, an organi zation covering 21 northern coun ties of California, is financed for $50,000. 1 Oregon's state chamber, with the help of our substantial citizenship, has a field for state-wide develop ment that will bring results obtain able In no other way. How shall that help be given? There was a young chicken named .. Hall Who remarked to her bear from St Paul "If you kiss me I'll yelp And call out for help, But my voice does not carry at all!"
