YOU NEVER CAN TELL

n HE passage of the naval
" bill by congress will be a
great and timely step in
the direction of preparedness.
The bill as adopted by the SEN
ate will easily place the United
States in second rank as to
world naval power. The pas
sage of the shipping bill, now
assured, will provide a merch-
ant marine available for auXili-
ary naval duty when needed.
While lamenting the great
cost of this building program
most citizens will heartily ap-
prove of the action. We do not
know what the future has in
store. We may have serious
Questions to settle with Ger
many, England or Japan-no
one can tell. If adequately
prepared from naval stand
point it will be easier to settle
such issues on a basis Satisfac-
tory to the United States. The
naval appropriation this year
may save us a future war debt
of vastly greater magnitude.
Oddly enough the task of
preparedness is being perform
ed bv democratic president
and democratic congress. This
despite the fact the party is a
traditional peace party and is
opposed to militarism. What
some people call the "pacifist"
party is making up for the
past shortcomings of the
strong arm" party.
~~~-ssee~-S
You can never tell what may
happen when war dangers
arise. Sometimes those most

on the battle front when real
need arises and those who have
been shouting for war take to
the mountains.

FOR EASTERN OREGON'S
GOOD

m NE Of the most gratifying
VI features of the norma
school campaign is tht
fact eastern Oregon people
and newspapers are Loyalty
aiding in the campaign. 1t is
realized that Pendleton is not
making a fight merely for it.
self but for eastern Oregon as
a whole. We have taken the
initiative in a move to establish
normal school education east OF
the mountains and to thereby
raise the teaching standard in
this section of the state. The
move is meeting with favor
even in communities that would
doubtless be glad to have the
normal school themselves.
Some very gratifying sup
port is being given by La
Grande people. Those people
realize that a good normal
school at Pendleton would be
a great boon to Union county.
It would be much better for
Union county students to come
here than to be forced out of
the state to seek normal in
struction-as is now the case.
The same generous and
broad minded support is being
given by Baker people. One
of the best endorsements the
normal campaign has yet re-
ceived is from a former Baker
man. State Superintendent
Churchill. In a formal endorse
ment Mr.. Churchill says:
81 trust the voters Of the
state will assist in raising the
standard Of our schools by es-
tablishing state normal
school at Pendleton. The loca
ton is central. the interest Of
the people Of Pendleton in ed.
ucation most excellent and the
large number of pupils enrolled
in the public schools will give
ample opportunity to all stu
dents to get the amount OF
teaching practice required in
a standard normal school. "
The campaign for the Pen
dleton normal is going to sue
ceed and one of the reasons is
that eastern Oregon people as
d whole will give cordial sup
port because they know that
Pendleton is not acting from
purely selfish motives but is
doing something that will prove
of real service to this part of
the state.

The fact that the most reac-

Henry Mcbride, former gov

can. seems to be in the lead for
the republican nomination for
governor. Geo. A. Lee, one OF
+he mainstays Of the Hay admin
istration, is considered second in
the race, his greatest strength
coming from the old-time organi-
zation which has controlled this
state for years, and from the cor
porations. w. j. Sutton is the
only man from the east side who
is in the running, and expects to
get large vote from the east
side, but political prophets do not
predict that he will make any
headway on the west side where
the bulk Of the states vote is
located.
