Early next year the prohibition lid will hep ut on light. That will be good news for the loganberry squeezers, for loganberry juice will become the popular drink in Oregon. The President kept us out of war was the Democratic slogan at the recent election. Secretary Lansing has let the cat out of the bag and says the United States is drawing nearer the verge of war. The Bay City Examiner is dead again. It passes in its checks every time that city printing is at a low ebb, and comes to life every time that a few legal notices loom.in sight. The Examiner has had a wonderful ex­ istence in this respect. Another reason why the County Court should let the contract for the Bayoccan road as soon as possible, a number of men will be out of employ­ ment next spring. This would give them work and it would not be neces­ sary for grocery stores to give so much credit. It requires 9.6 mills to provide for the $180,000 for the different items in the budget for road work. The County Court has departed from the usual’practice ol making the enure levy under the road iunu, making mat levy only 4.4 mills and taking the bal­ ance from the general fund. Is this good judgment or a bad precedent? ------ o ■ — What's a man to do, anyway. He can't get a little eye opener in the morning nor a night cap before he re­ tires. Added to this it is a violation to fish in some of our rivers, That’s tough on the human race, after so many years ol tree tishing. It is evident that the Stale board of Fish and Gaine Commissioners haven’t any Democratic free trade ideas in their make up. People who go over the county for the purpose ot disposing of articles, appear to be complaining. 1 hey say they can't sell things luce they used to and give the reason that the dear farmer«, whom they often "soaked”, are spending too much money for automobiles and automobile pleasure. This may be true to a certain extent, but the real truth is people are com­ ing to tins city to trade, for they know it is to tneir benefit to do so. ------ o------ The County Court has put one over on Tillamook City, Bay City, Wheel­ er and Neliaicm. Il will be noticed that the road levy is only 4.4 mills, and to make up the 1180,000 it will be necessary to take 5 mills from the general fund, which practical means that the above cities are soak­ ed 5 mills for county roads, besides the road levies within the cities, Where does Bros. Hare, Owens and McKinien* think they will go to when they pass in their checks? Some of the , newspapers of __ the I lined States are asking the question "What are the European Nations fighting about?" The impression pre­ vailed in Europe for many years that Germany would attempt to become the world power. That was the object Germany had in view when she start­ ed the present deplorable conflict. T he first move in that direction was to overrun Belgium and crush France and then turn its attention to Russia. With these nations subdued and crushed, Germany would have been in a position to declare war on other nations. 1 hat is what the allies are fighting to prevent. The Real Spirit in France. “We 'have revived the spectre of the guerre de revanche,' Nothing _ could be more fundamentally untrue. France is a nation of 39 millions; Germany of 6 7 millions. The odds against France are such that no Trench Government will ever dream of a ’war of revenge.' What occupies the entire attention of France is the task of protecting herself against the possibility of a sudden German at­ tack, and Germany would be in a position to deliver such an attack if Erance look no steps to meet the augmentation in the strength of the German effectives that is now propos­ ed. In three years Germany will have raised the strength of her army from 6OO,o00 to 85u,000 men. Alter all, French statesmen cannot be blamed for recalling Von der Goltz's famous saying that the German statesmen who, seeing war inevitable and being himself ready, hesitates to strike is guiltv of a crime against the country.’ ------ o------ Those who are endeavoring to kick The Price of Peace. up a fuss about the cost of elections But if Germany cherishes no hostile arc trying to make the poor printer purposes against France, why should the "goat'.
