Olivet W.0d.1l H.1r0.. ADJOURN POLITICS President Wilson, leader of the democratic party, and Will Hays, chairman of the republican national committee, have both advised that politics be adjourned, as far as pos sible, during the period of the war. This is good advice and will be read ily accepted by tho people, in fact the voters are likely to refuse to lake much Intrest in politics regardless of the attitude of their leaders. While their thoughts are centered on the military operations in France and Italy, they are not going to pay much attention to political campaigns at home. While they are ready to lis ten gladly to appeals to patriotism, they will turn a deaf ear to appeals to partisanship. While they are vit ally interested in the welfare of the boys with the colors, they are very little Interested in tho prospects of candidates for county offices. Most of them will go to the polls and vote as a matter of duty and habit, but they are going to measure tho candidates by their record as loyal citizens, rather than by their record as party workers. They prefer to loan their money to the government to be used •flighting Germany, or to contribute 11 to the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Knight, of Columbus or the Salva tion Army for war work, rather than *° donate ii to political campaign hinds. Th Mack of interest In politics was evidenced by the failure of all the Petitions for proposed initiative meas ures to secure enough signatures to &vc them a place on the ballot at the coming election. No particular fight *as made against them by anybody, »t the people were too occupied with war work to bother with initiat ing new laws. The vast majority of u»e voters have come to the conclu -8 on that this Is no time for anyone to *Pend money or stir up partisan feel 'ng with the object of being elected 0 some petty office. Loyalty and •ervlco to the nation loom so much eger than loyalty or service to any Political party, that the candidate °° thinks that ho can win by ap- KARL P. ALLEN, Editor pealing to partisan prejudice is going to be sadly disappointed In view of these conditions ii is to bo hoped that a minimum of money and effort will be expended on the campaign in Whitman county and that the leaders of both parties will earnestly strive to eliminate any bit terness from th.' contest. Strife and hard words will not help to win the war, and thai la the big Job devolv ing upon every voter at the present ; time. WM. GOODYEAR BOOZE .IXII SAVINGS lii a recent issue we spoke' of the food and labor thai would lie saved if the United States should cut out the booze business, oven during the war. It would mean turning over 50,000, --000 bushels of grain a year for food purposes, instead of using it. for booze; and it would add the labor of about one million mem to other in dustries. There is another phase of it which should be considered, it is estimated that the annual retail drink bill of the United States before the war was $2,400,000,000. This is $400,000, --nun more than was asked for our first Liberty Loan, and it is equal to our total annual exports before the war. It is enough to buy most of the War Savings stamps now being of fered. The' money spent for booze is worse than wasted. Booze impairs the ef ficiency of Hie drinker to earn more money, It increases the number of fires, iln* loss of property in other ways, the number of accidents, the expense of maintaining police de partments and jails. If, therefore, we should bring about entire prohibi tion, we would add to our industries the labor of the men now engaged in the various phases of the boose busi ness. We would have a large amount of grain each year. We would save the money spent for booze. We would save the rent paid for build ings occupied by saloons, warehouses and brewing establishments. We would save the automobile trucks needed for handling this great traf fic as well as the gasoline and oil needed to run them. We would in crease the efficiency of the men who have been in the habit of drinking, to say nothing of the moral effect and the happiness of the homes to which they belong.— Wallaces' Farmer. GRF.AT PRIVILEGES Some people are asking why the recent Chautauqua was a financial failure in Pullman, while a success in other towns of smaller population. The question is easily answered. 11 i 3 because the people of this commun ity can hear better music and better lectures at the State- College free of charge than the Chautauqua can af ford to offer at the prices asked. This privilege of being able to en joy high class music and to hear the finest lecturers in the country, with out money and without price, is a very great one, which the people should appreciate and exercise far more than they do. It la one of the Kreatest advantages resulting from the location of the college in our midst. ' I." college offers another great privilege to the farmers, of this com- unity, which many, of them fall to appreciate. They could study the Omenta which are being .-undue '•' on the college farm and talk over their problems with th,. trained sci '■mists on the faculty, with great benefit to themselves. It seems to In* a weakness of human nature thai distance lends en chantment. The average man feels that privileges which can not »>«.** en joyed without considerable trouble arc more, valuable ami more to be de sired than those whirl, can be en- Joyed without trouble, lie measures the value of a concert or a lecture or a piece of expert advice, in propor tion to the distance he has to travel to hear it and by the price he has to pay for it. Many people in this community do not. begin to appreciate or to make use of the benefits which the proxim ity of ihe* State College affords them w'm. goodyear! \I.M.
