OUR BRAND RESPECTED.

The Oregonian now generously
takes up the defense of the Round
up as a Pendleton entertainment. 1t
says the show has been handled so
we'll here and is conducted along such
lines that no other northwest town
or city should seek to duplicate the
show.
That is the proper spirit to be
abroad. The day is past when every
town is pitted against every other
and acts only in narrow selfishness.
Communities are now ready to recog-
nize the rights of other communities
1t is a finer spirit than the old spirit
Of strife and Jealousy.
AS to the Roundup 1t could not be
duplicated in Portland and probably
not in any other town in the north
west. 1t is an unusual show in that
the local color and the community
backing have everything to do with
its success. A Roundup show in
Portland would be like dried apple.
The color and juice would be gone.
But lust the same it would hurt our
Roundup immensely to have an imi7
tation show held in the metropolis
Many would see the show there and
supposing it to be an exact reproduc-
ton Of the Pendleton Roundup
would not care to come here to see
the real thing.
But evidently we have no reason to
worry. Pendleton has its brand up
on the Roundup and the brand is
known. SO now let's bend all energies
towards pulling off a show this fall
that will be so good people will cry
who do not get to see it.

WHERE HE WANTED HIM.

"Can I talk to you few minutes? ?"
asked the life insurance agent, ac-
cording to the Tid-Bits.
YES" replied the superintendent
of the factory, if you don't mind
walking about the building with me.
l haven't really the time to sit down. y
That's all right" said the agent.
"Td rather move around a little any
how"
The superintendent led the way cut
of the pattern room, thence into the
voodworkers' department, stopping
every moment or two to converse With
some operative and took his caller at
last into the room where the huge
hammers were filling the air with
their unearthly din.
"Now," he yelled into the ear of
the life insurance man, "I am ready
to listen to you. Go ahead"

THE PENDLEToN ROUNDUP.

portland Oregonian.)
What have been called roundups
are not new amusement enterprises
In various parts of the range country
we have had them staged for the last
quarter of a century, perhaps longer
than that, and in at least two places
in the Rock Mountain region there
are annually shows of that kind. But
it remained for the people of Pendle-
ton. in our own state, to make of the
roundup a show such as had never
been undertaken before, adding to it
features making it something so far
ahead of all other shows of the kind
as to be in a class by itself.
For three years now the Pendleton
people have celebrated their roundup
each Autumn, but the first two shows
were merely experimental - that is,
the entertainment was in an evolu-
tionary stage-and it was not until
last year that we were shown three
days of amusement so unique as to
put the event in a class by itself-so
far above everything else of the kind
as to entitle the Pendleton citizens to
claim the roundup as their very own.
From time to time we hear of COM
munities in Oregon, Washington and
Idaho announcing that they will give
in connection with some fair or other
like event, a roundup of the Pendle-
ton sort. But no sooner is such state
ment made than the newspapers and
leading citizens of the Northwest
come out practically with one voice
and announce that the roundup be-
longs to Pendleton and that they will
not be privy to its theft from that
city SO it seems likely that Pendle-
ton has captured the roundup for
keeps. The promoters there have
made such a success of it that no
other community will likely ever
have the temerity to take it away from
them or copy it,
We are glad such is the case, for
the enterprising managers will go on
improving it from year to year until
it will become one of the famous
amusement events of the country-as
it practically is now. But we must
remember how new it is; that the
managers went into the work with
but faint idea of its possibilities;
that they were hampered for lack of
funds and the want of the right kind
| of grounds to stage it upon. All of
these faults have been remedied and
from now on the Pendleton Roundup
Association will have smooth sailing
on calm waters, and the entire North
west will be glad to recognize their
annual show as one of the great
events of the West.
Perhaps the feature that has most
benefited the roundup cause is that it
Is not a show run for personal ag-
grandisement or money-making. 1t is
given for the benefit Of Pendleton, of
Oregon, Of the Northwest, and the
promoters advance the money to

IN EARNEST.

While the militant methods of the
English suffragettes are not in ac-
cord with the American way all must
admire the nerve and zeal Of Mrs.
Pankhurst and fellow fighters who
have won their hunger strike. When
frail women calmly persist in starving
themselves to death to further the
cause they espouse it means they are
in earnest in their struggle. From
reports it is evident Mrs. Pankhurst
was really ready TO die in order to
carry her point. If the British heart
is susceptible to anything 1t will be
affected by that show Of devotion to
principle. Let us rejoice however
that it is not necessary for American
suffrage workers to resort to such he
roic methods.

with a different punctuation and en-
phass, with a different tone of voice
and expression of face, and thereby
carry a falsehood as black as If the
words themselves We're misquoted.
For instance it is reported, either ig-
norantly or maliciously, that said
that the bible was not the Word of
God" Now, l believe that the Bible
is the Word of God just as implicitly
as these saints" who have gone
around and maliciously misrepresent-
ed my words, If they will turn to
the so-called "Prolougue," or the first
eighteen verses of the Gospel of John,
they will there see that the Word"
is Jesus Christ. Now, no one with
sense will claim that the Bible and
Christ are literally identical; 1t is,
therefore, only in figurative sense
that the Bible is called the Word of
Coda figurative sense, however,
we'll understood by all intelligent peo-
pie, that the Bible was written by
men of old who were inspired by AL
mighty God. My view of the Bible
in this respect is just like that OF
any other orthodox" minister. But
because l took occasion at one time
to explain the different sense in
which we speak of Christ as the
Word" and the Bible as the Word"
have become the victim of rumors
of heresy, which as l said before, have
been inspired either by ignorance or
malice, If it We're ignorance, they
are not responsible and no one should
give them serious attention; If it were
malice, leave their case in the hands
of one who is full of mercy and Who
will abundantly pardon.
Meantime, Mr., Editor when it
comes to heresy, 1 plead not guilty
and challenge the world for proof.
Yours most sincerely,

Editor East Oregonian:
With your permission I'd like to
make a little self-defense. You know,
you could not very we'll strike a min
ister down with a more fatal death
blow than to call him or imply that
he is a hereto. Indeed to imply or
to insinuate is more subtle and dead
ly than to explain fully, and for that
reason I propose to explain and to
correct a certain erroneous impression
which is calculated to destroy my
reputation and influence as a minis
ter. In your last evenings edition
you referred to "well known" theo-
logical differences between me and
my "flock." Yes, l understand that
they are we'll known, and for that
reason | am forced out of sheer self
defense to make this explanation.
Certain ones, either out of ignorance
or malice, have circulated the report
that 1 am a hereto. And 1 repeat
that a public man, connected in any
way with our so-called orthodox
churches, could not easily be done
a more fatal injury When you I'M
ply that such a man is tinctured in

hobgoblin, you arouse the saints" to

men and women at the stake and

would do it today If 1t were not for
the law. They will write you menac-
ing, anonymous letters; they will send
out letters to all the churches round
about, besmirching your reputation
with blackmail, making it impossible
for you to get a position anywhere
within the zone of their influence; and
then they will turn you out into the
streets to starve to death. Was the

Afraid that a day might be wasted.
