Wilsonianism is nantes" "if

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-12-08
THE COST OF HIGH
LIVING

II T is an oft told story, but
there is truth in it.
The high cost of things
is partly the consumers own
fault. We buy in small guam
titles. We demand, as the Ia.
coma grocer told Tacoma
housewives, dainty wrappings
and small packages.
We jauntly order paper of
pins, a loaf of bread or a spool
of thread delivered a mile or
miles across the city. We take
up the telephone lightly and
order ten cents worth of ap-
pies when the apples, potatoes,
sugar and kindred staples
should with proper fore
thought be laid by in quanti-
ties.
It is idle to blame the farm.
ers, or the grocers either, for
taking all they can get when
they sell their goods. Neither
the farmer nor the grocers are
getting rich very fast. They
do not skim the cream of the
cost Of living.
Many a Portland grocer is
put to it to keep his business
afloat. The expense of the
service he must render, the
rents he must pay, the almost
limitless charges he must meet,
leave him but meager profits,
sometimes only a bare exist
ence, at the end of the year.
The food gamblers who,
like the Chicagoan with TO-
100000 eggs in cold storage
and the big combinations
which fix prices Of necessaries
of life, rob consumers on all
sides. The farmer suffers
from their depredations. The
grocer suffers also. And the
city consumer suffers. What
ever gain there is in the mar
keting of food the spectators
and big combines usually take.
This fact it is essential for
everybody to digest before
anything really efficient can
be done to lower the cost of
living.-Portland Journal.

OUR MOST DEVOTED
FRIEND

~ HE graciousness and civ
VI ic love displayed by the
electric company in moi
really and truly wanting to tie
Pendleton up with a 10 year
lighting contract recalls the
heroism and devotion with
which the company's influence
was exerted in connection
with the gravity water system
a few years ago. 1t will be re-
membered that the company
representatives were always
most eager for good water for
Pendleton but that their con-
ception of good water was such
as to cause on their part a
great preference for a system
that required pumping by cleo
tricity at a charge of some $3,-
500 or more per annum. The
East Oregonian has not for
gotten how the electric COM
pany, in its patriotism and vir.
tue refused to be fond of the
Thorn Hollow project with its
tentative plan for municipal
electric plant at some future
date, nor how it generously al
lowed its legal talent to assist
in discrediting the gravity sys-
tenn and the various gentlemen
who had worked for the same
and finally brought about its
accomplishment.
