THE FLAG WILL STAY.

The country and the flag are be-
set with twin evils. Unrestrained
capitalism would make the republic a
meaningless thing and with invisible
hand write the dollar mark over the
stars upon Old Glory. Unrestrained
anarchy as represented by the l. w.
w. would tear down the stars and
stripes and raise the red flag of dis
order and God knows what. How
ever neither element has yet succeed
ed and wont succeed. For every mis-
guided tory who would put the rights
o. plutocracy above the rights Of the
people there are a thousand to offset
his influence and the same is true or
every follower of the l. w. w. The
great mass of the people are sound
of heart and mind and as long as they
50 remain the country will be safe

Street paving should not be exorbi-
tant in Pendleton. Labor is plenti-
full these days and Pendleton has the
raw material for street work close at
hand. We have quarries right at the
edge of town and a gravel bar almost
in the center OF the improvement
district. Rock and gravel are pro-
ducts of nature and may be had here
just as cheaply as anywhere in the
world The fact Pendleton has this
material available should be an i'm
pcrtant factor in bringing about paw
ing work at reasonable cost.
1t will be fortunate if the property
owners and the paving companies can
get together on amicable terms. Pen
dleton needs a vast amount of street
work and needs it badly. But the
paving men must recognize the fact
that unless they offer their work at
prices that seem fair to their pros
pective patrons it will be natural for
the property owners to request that
the improvement be deferred.

ABOUT STREET PAVING.

Numerous remonstrances have been
filed against street paving and on
the face of thinks it would appear
there is little likelihood of further
street work this summer. However,
il the East Oregonian understands
the situation the outlook is brighter
than it seems.
The remonstrances filed were not
circulated as protest against paving
IN any form but rather against one
particular class of paving suggested
by the council-bitulithic pavement
of the same sort as has been laid in
the business district 1t is the most
expensive class of pavement and is
generally considered too expensive for
local residence streets.
From reports this paper has receiv-
ed from many sources a large ele-
ment of property owners on all the
streets affected are willing to stand
for hard surface pavement provided
they can secure the same at prices
that seem reasonable. Some of them
have openly announced that they
signed remonstrances. not to block
Improvements but rather to helI
beat down the price.
There are also good reasons fol

price has brought results. Both tn.
