It used to be that Orctown, in this
county, a .is a regular hot Led of so­
cialism. \\ hat a wonderful change of
sentiment have taken place. It is re­
ported that every male person in that
section of the county bought a Lib­
erty Bond. That, to our way of think­
ing, is very commendable from a pa­
triotic standpoint, whqn taken into
consideration that it was pro-Ger-
mans who dominated the Socialist
party in the United States. It is safe
to say that very few persons will vote
lor socialist candidates at the next
election.
Very few ot the state newspapers
published the names of those who
bought liberty bonds in their respec­
tive counties. The Headlight did so,
because we considered it a splendid
record for the people of the county,
'
and our citizens should keep a copy
as a souvenir ot what Tillamook
county did to support the govern­
ment, going over the top before the
drive commenced with every prospect
of raising $315,000, when the quota
was only $105,000, is, in our estima­
tion, something to be proud of. We
feel that way and so docs most Tilla-
mookers.

was first declared, and since that
lime the Kaiser's troops have found
>ut to their dismay that .1 ohn Bull is
sdme fighter, especially s o when in a
tight place, i he K.iiser’s last drive
was for the purpose of annihilating
England’s contemptible army and
capture tne French coast. N otwith-
standing the terrific a ssaults of the
Germans, John Bull, is lighting with
indomitable pluck, courage and de­
termination, and it is safe to say that
the little contemptible English army
has accounted for over a million of
Germans since the present drive com­
menced, and if the Germans use the
same reckless waste of men much
longer the British Bull Dog will put
another million Germans hors de
combat. With so fierce fighting Eng-
land must have lost a largc number
of men in killed and wounded, for
they have had to bear the brunt of
the fighting, but now that contempt-
ible army is being reinforced by
American troops, that makes the re-
sistance the Germans have to meet
that much stronger and more difficult
for them to break through, which
they will not be able to do.

president of the Farmers’ Union in
Oregon and Idaho, is one of the prin­
cipal organizers of the Non-Partisian
League, ami also in spite of the fact
that the Farmers’ Union of Oregon
at its state convention in McMinnville
indorsed the Non-Partisian League,
some of the Farmers’ Union people in
the Pacific Northwest are revolting at
the idea of having the league thrust
upon them through their own organ­
ization. Witness the resolutions pass­
ed at a recent meeting of the local
Farmers’ Union at Waitsburg, saying
