The campaign set in toward Stan field strongly when the attention of the voters was drawn to the fact that Oregon now has five lawyers at Washington and that Stanfield is a business man. The call of the Govern ment for business men to help win the war ami the necessity for practi cal heads to solve the big problems in the reconstruction period follow ing the war have all tended to bring Stanfield's qualifications to the front. It is gratifying to know that people in all parts of the coutny arc volun teering their services for the Red Cross drive. This is very encouraging to the Executive Board of the Red Cross and makes their work much more pleasant. We do not know of anything where the people have shown such willingness to help, and we want to congratulate the people, feeling assured that everybody is go ing to add their mite to help the Red Cross drive, and they are going to do it willingly and gladly. News reports say that the Aircraft Board squandered one billion dollars in eleven months and failed to furnish the army with the necessary air planes. That is enough to make one’s blood boil. There are some niggers in the wood pile who ought to be burn ed at the stake, but it is probable that the whole affair will be whitewashed over. In view of the repeated advice to people to save and conserve food, if some of the officials at Washing ton would do so with the people’s money the taxpayers would feel bet ter, for it is at Washington, D. C., where there is wilful waste. Just one more word of advice to Republicans of Tillamook county; Vote for Bob Stanfield and you will be voting right. We feel confident that Stanfield is going to be nominat ed for United States Senator, and Re publicans of the county will never re gret it if they cast their ballot for him tomorrow at the primary election. It »nay not be known to many persons but he was one of those who took an active part in Tillamook county get ting such favorable consideration in the slate road measure, five miles of which will be built this year. Let us show our appreciation of his effort and vote for him. The Red Cross is doing more good than any other organization in the worid There is one thing very notic able, however, and that is all classes have volunteered their services. These is no iistinction, for rich and poor have joined hands and working to gether. Neither does religious preju dices have any weight, for persons of all denominations are amongst the most active workers in the good cause and it is phasing to note it is bringing church people together, for after all the Red Cross is doing the mission of the church in helping suffering humanity wherever it is to be found, regardless of nationality, creed or color. Complete exoneration of the charg es of profiteering and hoarding of wool, made against R N. Stanfield by the Telegram and Journal, has been given by the Oregonian, after a thorough ami detailed investigation into the wool situation. The Oregon ian went to the records of the Col umbia Basin Wool Warehouse Com pany and obtained the facts. Based on this investigation, the Oregonian printed the following editorial com ment: "The Oregonian is able to say- on information and knowledge that he ( Robert N. Stanfield.) is neither a profiteer nor a hoarder. It says it now because it ought to be said now. it would not have him, nor any man, penalized through politics, or part nership, or newspaper unfairness, for having performed to the state of Ore gon and to the Northwest an inval- \Je service in creating here a great ' depot, and in helping lay the ;c>n for an important industry Your Army and Navy fights to make the “World safe for Democracy.” Your Red Cross fights to make it fit for De mocracy. Fights for your soldiers—yours and your al lies—in trench, canteen and hospital. Fights for the little children, to save them for the nation's upbuilding of tomorrow. Fights for the swarms of homeless, dazed refugees and "repatriates” thrown out from the war's black whirlpool. Fights the white plague, tuberculosis, that takes a greater toll than lead and steel. Fights on every war stricken country to up hold a wrecked and suffering humanity in its struggle for a free existence. One hundred million dollars to“carry on.” No power of taxation, no interest rate to urge those dollars. Each one a volunteer, sent willingly and by the heart alone. The noblest fund of all the billions of this war's vast budgets—because the freest given. Tillamook County.

The Oregon Regiment in France. —°;— Somewhere in France—In a bar racks, once a monastry—till the time of the French revolution, when re ligion went out of fashion—the 1111 11 of the 05th artillery arc quartered. The original building was built over 900 year ago, and since has been in continuous service cither as a reli gious habitation or a stathin for troops. Here Napoleon quartered one of his famous regiments and here the Little Corporal came from time to time. The men base been fortunate in he ir.;.; able to see a la g portion of both England and Franc before finally resting in his camp, which bids fair te b - their home for some little time. They traveled through much of the storied and historic portion of these countries which have contributed so much to the world’s story, and have marveled at the beauty of the land, the architecture of buildings and the general character of cleanliness and industry. The men have learned what inten sive cultivation of land is, but at the same time they have seen that land can be so cultivated and still be fairer than the fields of home, for everywhere there is the painstaking care and application of the people, shown in the very manner in which they till the soil. Oregon Artillery Men are Well On the whole, the men arc very well although men have been left from time to time at base hospitals. Few cases of serious nature have beset the men of the regiment and with the What share is yours? What sacrifice to mob ilize those Fighting RedCross Dollars. rest which they are getting at present they should throw off the dullness engendered by the long trip on water and on land. No mail has yet been re ceived from the States and the men arc wild for news of home. A V. M. C. A. has been established in the former writing hall of the old dragoons, where the men are welcome to read and write and have music. As yet no regular secretary has been se cured, but a man is detailed by head quarters to care for the rooms and look after the welfare of the men. The regiment from time to time has met detachments and details of the 1621! infantry, the old jd Oregon, and there is a sort of fraternity between the two regiments, for the majority of the 65th is composed of Oregon men, who have many friends among the "doughboys”, as the infantry is termed by the supercilious artillery men. News From Front Lacking. News of the front, with actions there is entirely lacking, and there is no way of securing the details. French papers arc largely editorial generalities and the only news which may be secured comes through the official communiques, which are the opposite of the news matter, being stripped to the facts in a way that tells little to the man not intimately acquainted with the nature and posi tion of the battle front. The men are finding the French as universally polite and hospitable as their world wide reputation had led the Americans to expect. In all cases the French arc ready to do what they can for the men and are particularly anxious to help the struggling li.11-I guist by liberal parleying of the hands. There is an inspiration to the meu in being actually in France and with their faces at last directly toward the battle line. Though a period of training might postpone the time when they will face the fight consid erably, the men feel that they are but one step removed from their real purpose, and that they will be used immediately whenever there is need of them. Thete is also an urge to' one’s manhood in feeling that he is i quartered in the very building in which the great commander of all time had some of his favorite troops.! * What Has Your Red Cross Money Done ? In the first place, it has enabled the Ameri can people, through the Red Cross, to help care for its army and navy. Secondly, it has enabled America to hearten her Allied fighting forces and to keep, among the civilian populations, the spirit to win the war. I hat, alone, has made the American Red Cross one oi the largest factors since our entry into the (war. I anteens which provided food and hot drinks more than a million meals to soldiers in De cember; warehouses, crammed with materials, situated all along the French line, all along the Italian lines, at seaports and at places where our soldiers are going to fight; institutions for the care of consumptives, institutions for the re-ed ucation of maimed men—these are a few of the concrete accomplishments abroad. At home the millions of woolen sweaters, mm tiers, socks and other comforts for the men 1,1 camp, the work of sanitation around canton ments and the hedp and advice given dependents <>! soldiers and sailors—these are the things * hich will "make you, your children and your children s children, in whatever part of the "or c they may be, proud of being Americans.” W ill you do yottr share to keep this Hand of Mercy at its work? Proper Food For Weak Stomachs. The proper food for one man will be «11 wrong for another. Everyone should adopt a diet suited to his age and occupation. Those who have weak stomachs need to be especially careful and should cat slowly and masticate their food thoroughly. It is also important that they keep their bowels regular. When they become constipated or when they feel dull and stupid after eating, they should take Chamberlain’s Tablets to strengthen the stomach and move the bowels. They are easy to take and pleasant in effect. For sale by Lamar's Drug Store.—Paid Adv. Contributed to the Red Cross bj! LAMB-SCHRADER co . ALEX. McNAIR &> CO. W- A. CHURCH. I I 1 *
