You can't trade. You get the cash

"WEsTONlAN" ADVOCATES
RETALlATORY ATTITUDE

Weston. Or. June 2S.--(To the Ed
itor)--we are graveiy told BY the
East Oregonlan that the idea Of iocat-
ing the normal school at Pendleton
emanated from the teachers conven-
ton. Now isn't that rich? A. every
resident OF this county well knows
the commercial club OF the county
seat hatched out that scheme. which
consisted OF getting the normal school
here out OF the way. so that the
branch asylum could be established In
Pendieton. This being accomplished
and the appetite for state pork well
anchored, they are now out for more
pork in the shape OF validating NOR
mai schools at Ashland. Monmouth
and last, but not least. Pendlcton. for
ali time TO come--notwithstand the
fact that a fine plant owned by the
state II ready for school purposes
here. We are told that $500 has been
subscribed to initiate the bill ana
thereby fasten the nudho0ks Of PEN
dleton on the state treasury for keeps.
Well, what about II? Are we going
to sit supineiy and bear this kind OF
treatment without resentment, or are
we going to fight the devil with fire?
Why not fight Pendiet0n where she
iiyes--in her greed? II our people
would quit trading in 'Pendleton stores.
II they would consign to the stove all
catalogues from Pendleton merchants
and not spend single nickel there. u
we would withdraw our subscriptions
from any newspaper advocating this
dirty scheme--it might make a diff
ference. Nanich?

Slr--G have jua finished reading your
