'MYROX liOOSER of 0 rants I 'ass lias started lv a k'hik1; Iiaiidcd ciiini)aiKii against JIdovci- and the food administration, claiming lliat tlic ovci'ninont has no rilit to ask tlio people to pel ram I rom eating wJieat so 1 nat the allies can Ik; fed, unless the breweries are closed and the use of wain in makinir beer ceases. War time prohibition is eoininj,' fast, but not fast enoiitih to satisfv nrolnbilion fanatic-?, like Mr. Hooser, who seek to ake'advantaf;(' of the war to revolutionize the personal habits of humanity to eontorni ttt their own liar row viewDoint, iroiiiL' so far as to threaten sabotage. The use of wheat, in alcoholic, beverages ceased a year ago when distilling was stopped, ao wheat is consumed in the manufacture of beer. Marley, not wheat, is consumed by the breweries. The consumption of foodstuffs in brewini.' has been reduced .!() per cent and will bo turther reduced as necessity demands as it has been in England. The alcoholic content, of beer litis been reduced" to 2 per cent. This is t rue temperance stopping the manufacture of strong drink and cutting down the - alcohol in mild drinks, if it is not prohibition. As the supply of manufac tured strong drink is gradually exhausted, only mild bev erages can be supplied. There is almost as much foodstuffs used in the manu facture of soft drinks as in beer. If one is cut out, the other should be. I hit this foodstuff is not needed for the allies or ourselves as yet. "When it is, there will be time for action. Mi'. 'Hoover, who would like to see the use of foodstuffs suppressed in all drinks, hard and soft, objects to the ollnrts lo lorcc prohibition on the country by a sub terfuge, giv ing th(! following reasons: "We stopped distilling a year ago. Thero Is a long supply of whis key, gin and oilier 20 percent to 40 percent distilled drinks In the count ry. We have rnduced tho consumption of foodstuffs in brewing and reduced the alcoholic contents of oecr. If we stop brewing the saloons of the country will still he-open, but confined practically to a Whiskey and gin basis. Any true advocate of temperance and of national effi ciency In these times will Bhrhik from this situation, for the national danger in It is greater than the use of four million bushels of grain monthly by the breweries. If the American people want prohibition it should prohibit 'by legislation to that end, und not force the food ad ministration to that end for nil orgy of drunkenness. It Is mighty difficult to get drunk on 2 percent beer, it would 4ie easy enough If wo force a substitution of (1 1st 11 lo d drinks for It." The practical effect, however, is the least concern of your fanatic, who in his intolleranec wants everyone to coin orm to Ins own two hy lour standard. There is no excuse for such sabotage as that preached by jIr. I looser, tor the wheatless regime is a state altair, and there are no breweries in Oregon or the northwest. The wheatless regime is the patriotic l'esponse of the peo ple to the request of the fond administration to and the winning of the war through 'going without wheat needed by our soldiers in France and our allies. AUSTRIA A GERMAN VASSAL TJIM text of the military convention forced upon Era pcror Charles of Austria by Kaiser Willliain of Ger many shows that Austria-Hungary lias become merely a German vassal and that subjects of the dual empire are merely slaves to work the autocrats will. The agreement is for the period of 25 years and as it becomes generally known in Aust ria and Hungary, will in tensify the dissatisfaction and discontent, fanning the smouldering embers of revolt. The allied nations are. to "devote all their care" to preparing their armies for fu ture war and war is to be the chief aim of the Pan-German allliance. : i Section 2 provides that "All the male inhabitants cap able of bearing arms shall receive proper and thorough military instruct ions. (Special formations, moreover, shall provide for all auxiliary services in connection with the production of arms and ammunition." Organization, instruction of troops and their employ ment are to he left to Germany, the forces being merged in one army, under German initiative. Armament is to be on a uniform basis, and supplies drawn from a common stock. Preparations for future wars shall be made on a common understanding between general staffs, all prepar atory economic measures to be taken in advance. Strategic railroads are to be built, on a uniform plan. ( ierniiiny lias thus completely incorporated the Austro Ilungary army with her own and begun plans already for future wars of conquest to dominate the earth. Austria is in a perpetual allliance for a perpetual cycle of wars to satisfy the German mania for blood. German success in the present conflict means simply ii preparation for future wars and war will be hence forth the sole objeel of life. That is why there can be no peace on earth until Germany is decisively and soundly beaten ami medieval German autocracy thrown forever in il.. .,., I.,- ..; viiiv.it i ARREST OF SUSPECT There is eonsidernl'le mystery about a man who gives the mime of II. Van Cntz und who has been held by the authorities in jail ut Jackson ville for several days awaiting the arrival of a presidential warrant un der which he will be arraigned before I'nited States C'ominiHsioner F. l?oy Davis. It is known that the prisoner, v)io w evidently not a working inun and is about 43 years old is suspected of disloyalty, at least. . Early in Ihe week lie first appeared at the office of Mr. Davis under the pretense of being interested in tak iii; up Oregoii-Cnlifornia railroad grant land, lieinarks he made ut that time aroused Mr. Davis' suspi cions, hut he made no move to have him apprehended at that time, pre ferring to give him n liltle more rope, us he felt sure the man would return to the office. Next day Van Catz appeared nl the Commercial eluh and his remarks and actions aroused the suspicions of Mrs. Kntcliwcll, the melius secretary, who notified (Jhiof of Police llittson.' The chief, niter .subjecting him to questioning placed him under arrest und notified Mr. Davis. Van Catz claims to have come to this city from Klamath Falls and from his talk had apparently been in Portland, Seattle and ether places re cently. When the was visiting at the Commercial eluh just before his ar rest he refused to sign his name and address on thevisitor's register when requested to''do so hy .Mrs. Suteli I . COMMUNICATION. To tho Kdltor: In reading the sev eral communications of the last week objecting to tho Sells-Floto show ap pearing In Medford, I agree with them, and as one of the Red Cross workers can't keep still, as this Is the most critical time so far, for us In this great world-wide slaughtering of humanity, and perhaps, it will be at Its worst, at the date this jubilee wants to appear here, so I hope that all of the Hed Cross workers will join In with Mayor Gates to do all we can to discourage this company from traveling around in such an unpatri otic occupation and grasping every dollar that our 'boys in khaki need every minute. -I don't believe there is a member ot the Red Cross that will tolerate such a performance and I wish that we could discourage any ono that has an idea of attending. I hope thnt every one Hint steps up to the ticket box to buy their ticket at the show grounds will think as they pass ovor their change: There goes a bullet thru my best friend, will he have medical caro? Yes, if there is enough to go around. M. A. CLEVENGER. Talent, Ore. Kllcilnultic and Kidney Ills. Are you troubled with rheumatism, kidney or bladder affections?

TO WIN THE WAR While we all are doing "our bit" to win the war, Jackson county can well be proud of the Wagner Creek district. The Junior Hed Cross, together with the Women's Auxiliary, have been doing their part from time to time, 'but on last Saturday evening, June the -first, a program was ren dered which brought exceedingly good results. The program consisted of a play", entitled "The Country Post Office," and given by the local peo ple. Altho this Is a busy season, nearly every evening of the past two weeks was spent in practice. The scene was taken rrom a country post office, where gossip Is plenty, still we know that lasting impressions were made, which are applicable for today. Everybody hud a good laugh and we know that everybody was well pleas ed. At the close of the play, announce ment was made that a hen and seven chickens had been raffled off, and the drawing was to take place at once. The hen was purchased from the proceeds of the sale of some junk which the Junior Red Cross had gath ered up. Then the school children each brought an egg, and the hen was set. She hatched nine chicks and raised seven. They were fed with crumbs from the clfildren's lunch palls. The proceeds from the raffle amounted to 2S.41. Miss Edith Anderson of the Talent Mer cantile company, drew the lucky number, tout very kindly donated the hen and chickens back to the Ited Cross for auction. Mr. Goddard acted as auctioneer, and the hen and each Mothers of Oregon Prepare for Trouble!
