settle all these matters. Then why do
you not say to these people II YOU are
honest: ''If this case brought by Johns
is decided against him, he will have
to pay and so will all of the rest of
the property owners who have not
paid. But on the other hand. IL the
courts decide that this lis not a legal
assessment, then Johns will not have
to pay and neither will you" But the
| City of Pendleton cannot suffer loss
/ for there is a provision in the con-
] tract with the paving company to the
effect that in case there are any de-
| fects in the assessments the city is to
be held absolutely harmless. and the
paving company must look to the
property owners for their pay. That
was very wise provision in the con-
tract, and reflects great credit on the
legal ability of the city attorney.
! Then why harass the property own
/ ers now? Does it not look to you
gentlemen as though there might be
an African in the wood pile? Else
why should you at this time be so an
xious to put unnecessary cost on our
citizens? Are you not a little over
solicitous for the interests of the War
rem Construction company Are you
not little afraid that Johns may pre-
vail in his suit against the city? And
if he does, whose loss is it? You
know that 1t is not the loss of the city.
You do not have to bring these suits
to protect the city. But don't you
think that by bringing these suits and
threatening others, you can scare a
great many property owners who are
afraid of lawsuits into either paying
up or signing papers agreeing to pay
in ten years. Then In case Johns
should win his suit there will not be so
much loss. Loss to whom? To the
Warren Construction company. Then
why are you so much interested in
their welfare that you undertake to
bluff our citizens into settling debts
which later developments may prove
unjust and illegal.
Why is it that no other paving
company has chance to get a con-
tract in the City of Pendleton no mat
ter what their bid may be? Why is it
that the city always advertises for
"bitulithic" and in local paper =?
Why is it that when a responsible con-
tractor offers to lay a pavement COM
posed of six inches of crushed rock
with a two inch surface of asphalt ar :
crushed rock and sand, and the whole
rolled to an even surface, and guar
antee the pavement for five years by
surety bond in a sufficient sum, for
95 cents per square yard, yet, not
withstanding that these specifications
are practically the same as standard
bitulithic, yet you let the contracts to
the Warren Construction company for
gravel bitulithic for $1.45 per yard, an
admitted inferior article?

No one questions the exceptional
ability of Mr. Brandeis. In view of
the large amount of effective atten-
ton which he has devoted without
pecuniary reward to social and public
matters, we do not see how any one
can doubt his high ideals of public
service.
Mr.. Brandeis is a strong man and
an active man, and as such he has
aroused various influential enemies
This was unavoidable in some Of the
popular causes he has espoused, and
is not to his discredit. But one need
not agree with all his views to APP
preciate the high character of his mo-
tives.
He is not a politician, and possibly
his appointment will be a disappoint-
ment TO some party workers. But the
portfolio which he will probably hold
will give him a fine opportunity tc
promote the welfare of the everyday
workers. who make up the mass OF
our people, and to serve the legitimate
commercial interests of the country
In thus contributing to the public well
fare, he should be valuable and eff
cient element in attaining success fol
the incoming administration.
There are indications we are tc
have an era OF greater simplicity ir
dress. 1t will be fine-if simplicity
does not prove too expensive.

A vast amount Of energy is wasted
by parties searching for the Promised
Land. This seems
Near at Hand. particularly true OF
the expedition that is
being conducted by DR.. G. L. Robin
son of the Mccormick theological SEM
mary. Dr. Robinson is going to ex-
plore the country around the Dead
Sea, the land of Ahab and Kad esh
Barnea and the oasis where the chill
dren OF Israel rested during their wan
derings. They will often be among
hostile natives and will also take
chances with tropical fevers.
If it is the promised land that is
wanted certainly DR.. Robinson is go
ing TO much unnecessary trouble
There is a growing belief these days
that the goal of the Israelites was not
greatly different from the happy
places OF other days and for other
people.

far and wide for what lies close at
