THE greatest political blunder President "Wilson ever made was his effort to make the war iv-partisan issue. That it was a blunder was demonstrated by the result. The president, during a successful and popular war, with all the power aiid prestige inherent injlint sit uation, asked the people to return a democratic congress, so the war might be brought to a successful conclusion. The people proceeded to give the democrats one of their worst defeats in vmodern history, and returned their political enemies to office. x But apparently the democratic leaders 'have learn ed nothing from this lesson. Homer 1 Cummings, the national chairman, announces the war was a great demo cratic triumph, and A. Mitchell Palmer a few weeks ago had the nerve to ascribe the victories of the Yanks in the field to democratic legislation, the income tax, excess profits tax, farm loan bill, etc., etc., not mentioning woman suffrage, bone dry and child labor. Of course there is a precedent for this. The Civil "War established the republican party, And the victory of the north continued that party in power for many years. But the political student who expects a similar result after the world war, is riding to an awful fall. For in the war just closed, no party, won the victory, no party did the fighting, no part' sacrificed. its blood and treasure. The "war was fought and won by the American people of all classes, of all races and of all parties.- Every American citizen not utterly blinded by po litical partisanship realizes this, and any attempt to cap italize the victory for any one part', Avill result in 19120 precisely as it resulted in 1918." : Moreover the American people no longer can be branded, with a political label and be driven by political off ice holders. The balance of power is held by the men and. women who are for the country first and the party thereafter, who refuse to vote as their great grandfath ers voted, but ; A-ote as their judgments dictate, who quickly renounce party loyalty when that conflicts with their conception of loyalty to principles of. fair dealing, fair play, common justice and right. Our stalwart republican friends who rise in wrath at the utterances- of Messrs. Cummings and Palmer, might better save their energies. If what they want is a demo cratic defeat, these democratic leaders are adopting the course w hich will certainly assure it. Just What Boy Scout Week Is A startling thing occurred last week commercially, due to the unset tled conditions existing along the River Nile. Leather advanced 3 cents, and cloth shoes, the uppers of which are made of canvas, and the soles of which are made of rubber, advanced 37 cents wholesale. THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK IS ' STILL SOLVENT - i (Roscbnrft News) ' ' The old saying that there is plenty of money in hose now adays was proven to the full sat is faction of a local resident yesterday morning. While walk ing up Cass street the observing :cltizen noticed a well known Roseburg lady wearing a rath er short skirt and silken hose. Just what drew the attention of our townsman to the sidewalk would be difficult to say, how .. ever, he was doubly rewarded. Evidently the lady took no chance with house burglars; she placed the family "bank roll' i in her stocking. It so happened that the crisp bills slid down into .view. ; The Atlantic ocean obstacle to fly ing being conquered, plans will be laid for a flight to the moon, fol lowing the course taken by the cow that Jumped over It.

FAMILIARITY AND FLOWERS ' (Gold Hill News) ' Art Perry, the Smudge Smok er, is getting "buy" in great shape with his Llmbergeries. Gold Hill saw its name hitched up in myrth last week. Whats the matter with one on your self, Art? The Bov Seou (movement has eiv-, en organized bovhood a place alone side the Red Cross and other trreat organizations as a national institu tion. In order to extend its benefits more rapidlv to the millions of American boys who. because of Inck of volunteer leadership, are still with out the training- of the Bov Scout program, Hon. W. G. McAdoo and eminent gentlemen he has associated with himselt as members or the Cit-'i cooperation- wiih the National "Coun-' cil of the . Bov Scouts of America, pursuant to a proclamation bv the president of the United States, have formulated a program for a nation wide Bov Scout week beginning Sun- dnv. June 8th, and continuing through to Flag Day. June 14th. This will be the firs? nation-wide appeal on a comprehensive plan for the support of the Bov Scout move ment. Scouting has been developed and operated for the last nine Years practically on a self supporting ba sis. Income lrom registrations, sup plies, and so f'oith. have about cov ered running expenses. Field and extension work alone have been de pendent upon volunteer contributions. Become a Member Yourself .... The first objective of this cam paign is to secure 1,000,000 asso ciate members of the National Coun cil, Boy Scouts of America as nn as surance of enlarged usefulness. This associate membership is offer ed to mothers and fathers of Ameri can boys and other adult American citizens upon payment of $1.00 or more as membership dues: in effect and in spirit a contribution to the movement, the amount to be determin ed by each individual. The associate membership, however. i.s an actual legal identification with the national body, without voting privileges which by the constitution and bv-laws of the Boy Scouts of America, belong only, to regularly elected members of the national council. It is expected that besides the financial support which this new membership will give the organization mnnv associate members will volun teer as scoutmasters, assistant scout masters, members of troop commit tees and members of local-councils; and that manv others will be active in organizing new troops of scouts in connection with their churches. schools and other institutions nnd. where necessary, independently of institutions.
