East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1911-07-17
THIS is Nor UTAH.

\ fellow who came here from
Utah such a short time ago he is not
vet entitled to vote in this city or
state sets forth the following dogma
for the guidance of the ladies of the
Fendleton civic club:
"And one final word to the ladies.
If they insist upon entering a field
which belongs strictly to politicians,
they must be expected to be criti-
cised. When u woman voluntarily
enters a commercial or business dis
pute hitherto occupied by men she
must expect to leave her sex be-
hind"
Wonderful! Wonderful! Such
, showing from one fresh from the
above named states does credit to the
teachings of Brigham Young-early
day apostle of polygamy and Nor
monism.
But there is one thing lacking. Pen
dleton is not in Utah and the peculi-
ar views certain bewhiskered deacons
os Salt Lake hold with reference to
womankind are not shared by the
citizens of this eastern oregon town.
If this fellow will stay here few
months he will learn that it is no
crime and no disgrace in Pendleton
for representative women, through
their organizations, to work for civic
Improvements and the general bet
terment of conditions-even if in do
ing so they cross the path of the Pa
cific Power & Light company.
They must expect to be criticised
as politicians and should leave their
sex behind. Is that SOL Then the
ladies of the civic club, because they
are exercising a manifest right and
are performing a patriotic duty, must
not object if they are insulted? Then
they must expect to have their mo-
tives misrepresented and expect to
have the electric trusts organ yip-
ing at their heels. They must pre-
pare for abuse and be calm if made
the victims of i'll timed ana nauseat-
| ing attempts at humor.
1t may be So but the East Ore
I gonian does not think it. The ladies
of the civic club are absolutely right
in what they are doing and they are
handling their end of the campaign
| ir a proper manner. They wont be
Iabused very much or for very long.
If they are the abuser may find him
self a greater sufferer than they.
The civic club should keep
straight on with its good work and
carry it TO a successful finish. Then
when they have brought about the
grounding of the electric and tele-
phone wires in the business section
they might well proceed to bury the
sheet that has set forth its antiquat-
ed sentiments with reference to wo-
man and her sphere. That sheet needs
burying also for it is thing of the
gutter and is beginning to stink.

HE Is AN OBJECT LESSON.

Agitated over the predicament in
which he finds himself Councilman
Montgomery has tried to square mat
ters by perpetrating several columns
statements that are wholly untrue
and treats of many subjects entirely
foreign to the question now under
iscussion,-to-wit, the proposition of
requiring the electric company and
the telephone company to place their
wires underground in the business
section of the city.
1t would be a waste of time to re-
ply to most of what Mr.. Montgomery
has set forth. This paper prefers to
eonfine itself to a cool and legiti-
mate discussion of the question. We
are on the side of right and good
sense ana il is not necessary to in
dulge in abuse and horse play.
The point the East Oregonian will
now discuss and has discussed be-
fore is that Of the duties of public
servants as compared with the du
ties of corporation representatives.
Mr.. Montgomery has tried to say
this paper fights all corporations III
a demagogic manner. He is wrong
and knows it and he viii find few
,~.,-r.~,.,.f .fo,, ,,,,r,,,o~e -,-l,o will nm
hold his view For corporation man
ayers as a rule and for DR.. Vincent in
particular this paper has respect and
good will and tries to treat them with
due courtesy, as all people should be
treated. The East Oregonian desires
the friendship and respect of corpor-
alton representatives as well as Of
other people, if it may be had upon
the right basis.
But the East Oregonian would not
want and could not afford the friend
ship of such men if the price of their
friendship consisted in any betrayal
by this paper of the interests of the
people Of Pendleton and of eastern
Oregon. This newspaper, like any
other legitimate paper, is public SER
want Its duty is to its people. not
to corporations that make money off
the people 1t would be breach of
a sacred trust to stand for the wishes
Of corporation when the interests
Of that corporation are at variance
Nith the interests of the people.
BY all the rules Mr. Montgomery
should be in exactly the same po-
rition as the East Oregonian. His
oath Of ffice as a councilman made
MIN a public servant and he should
Eerye the people-not special interests
such as the electric trust and the tel
ephone trust.
But he has not done so. BY his
own admission he was against re-
quiring the wires placed underground
even before he had investigated the
matter He entered the fight biased
IN behalf Of the electric company ant
the telephone company If unin
formed then logically his position
should have been the same as that o
Councilman Kirkpatrick who favored
the idea but desired TO investigate.
But Mr.. Montgomery did not TAX
that stand First, last and all tn
time he is for the corporation. b
his action he has shown himself un
ture to the trust reposed in him b
his constituents.
This Is the picture just as 1t d
