Now, it is important to keep the
japanese IN this attitude toward us,
for they have strong army and n
strong navy, and they have, or they
fancy they have, a great deal to gain
by going to war with the United
states.
And the only way to continue their
ccrdialiy is to keep a fleet in the
Pacific big enough to make any
other feeling extremely bad policy. As
long as our ships are sailing the seas
OF the Orient, the Japanese will con-
tlrue kindly and polite. But as soon
as they are withdrawn the old under
current of hatred will show forth in
the newspapers of Japan and in the
diplomacy of japanese
statesmen.

\ COMPARISON.

Because the East Oregonian spoke
in anger when it heard the news of
the recent election the local morning
paper has thought and talked of little
else since. 1t has tried to use the
matter to make capital for its own ad-
vancement.
That the East Oregonian was mad
and in its anger spoke with frankness
this paper admits. Was it a grievous
sin?
But there, are some things this pa
per has never done. 1t has never
been the servile tool of a carpet-bag-
ger politician whose past and present
record is such that the people Of the
town and county where he lives vote
against him four to one. The East
Oregonian has never been bought
in" by any man who for a particular
reason desired to stifle its voice. This
paper has never been a swamper for
gambling dives and other resorts
That the East Oregonian has faults
il freely admits. But it is newspa-
rer. at least, and always has been.
Il is not a Journalistic prostitute-like

\ FRISCO VIEW.

In san Francisco they feel keenly
uron the subject Of the japanese
They have a right to. The following
editorial from the san Francisco Ex-

vailing sentiment in California and
elsewhere upon this coast:
The Atlantic fleet is now at the
gates Of China. It was pleasant to
read that the japanese fleet received
our fleet cordially The cordially is
Of the same sort evlnced by a small
fox terrier when a large bulldog drops

nevertheless. and as long as it shall
e, dure there viii be no danger Of a
war with the little yellow nation over
the Pacific.
But we must not forget that this
expression Of loving good will to
everything American, the barking Of
friendly cannon and the making Of
fIowery addresses Of welcome was all
brought about by the size and strength
Of the American ships
This seems to be abundant evidence
Of the wisdom Of sending them TO the
Pacific. A few months before they
sailed Japan was full Of clustering
war talk. full Of bitterness toward this
country full Of threats Of what was
going to happen If her little children
Of s5 and 40 were debarred from our

mity dNlndled, and when the fleet

The Testimony of These Three Housewives Demonstrates Beyond ALI Cv
That Peruna is Safe and Useful Remedy.
Constipation, Torpid Liver.

Mrs. Anthony Rauch, S06 n. Walnut
street, Bucyrus, o., writes:
81 was suffering from obstinate con-
stipation and torpid liver, when took
your advice and purchased six bottles OF
Peruna and Manalin. When had taken
only one bottle felt much better, and
since l have taken two more bottles l
feel entirely well, but | will continue
taking the medicine for a short time to
make sure of my cure.
~ think Manalin is one of the finest
remedies for constipation that l ever
tried. 1 will never be without it. 1t
has made me so strong. l can do a
days work and never tire. l am so
glad do not get those dizzy spells any
more. l haven't had one since | took
your medicine.
81 cannot thank you enough for what
your medicine has done for me. All
sick people should give it fair trial."
Kidneys and Bladder.
Mrs. Gus. II. Carlson, Box 20l, Orton-
vile, Minn., writes:
81 had catarrh of the kidneys and
bladder. I have taken Peruna until
now, and do not think need to take 1t
any longer.
81 feel well, and my tongue is clear,
and have no bitter taste in my mouth.
I am very thankful for Peruna."

BUILD 1T ANYWAY.

At the present time the Pendleton
water commission is busy with plans
for a gravity water system. They are
trying to find out the best source of
supply and just how mountain water
may be provided for this city.
That there should be some objec-
ton to the move is but natural. All
men cannot agree upon questions Of
local Improvement any more than
they can upon other subjects. 1t is
to be expected that some who have
property interests and therefore dis
like taxes will try to batter down ex-
penditures wherever possible.
But the bulk of the people of this
city-property owners, merchants
professional men, Christians and
heathens-would like to see a gravity
water system provided. They want it
because the present water supply is
not good and because it is inadequate.
There is nothing that would mean
more in the upbuilding of Pendleton
than a gravity water system. A town
cannot grow and prosper without =
good water supply any more than
man can be healthy without good
blood in his veins
For one the East Oregonian, Is
heartily in favor of the gravity sys-
TEN. It pays some taxes itself but it
will gladly meet its portion Of the
expense. Its advice to the water
board is for them TO go ahead with
their plans: find out the best course
to take and then submit the PROPOSE
ton to the people. The people will
uphold them.

bottles made a new woman OF me and |

tarrh Of the bowels, and some said con-
sumption of the bowels. One doctor
said he could cure me. l took his medi-

Peruna and did so. After had taken
two bottles l found 1t was helping me,

Peruna Their Family Medicine.

WOULD THEY LIKE IT?

How would the ladies have liked to
in the political campaign
just closed? Would they have enjoyed
it? Would they enjoy politics, in the
concrete as well as the abstract
This is a pertinent question because
the subject of equal suffrage has been
before the people of Oregon several
times within the last decade. 1t is
generally conceded that women will
be given the right of suffrage when
ever they want it, There is no ques-
ton as to their right to the ballot. 1t
is purely question of whether or not
they desire it.
As it is now played politics is a
rough game. 1t is one wherein play
ers receive jolts that make the head
swim. 1t is a game that is often
neither lady-like nor gentlemanly.
Much of the language that is used
is not provided for in the dictionary,
nor in Mrs. Lincoln's cook book. 1t
is said that all is fair in love and war.
In politics there is much that is un-
fair.
That the political life of the coun-
try would be greatly improved under
equal suffrage goes without question.
But would there be a corresponding
loss to the womanhood of the nation?
This is a point upon which the ladies
should know best. Let them decide
IL.
