Cheer fo- the Navy.

We understand that in Vidal, of Dakota, the army eleven has a foot ball star even better than Elmer Oliphant.
 If this is true the Navy should adopt Germany's system and discover some Kiel Canal along the Atlantic Coast before complete demolition ar rives.
 Any football team that has an Oli- phant and a better man than Oli- phant teamed together should be forced to play with four men. the other two being a center, rush and a quarterback in order to maintain fair competition.

Next Weeks Finish.

In the turmoil which follows next week, winding up the National league season, Brooklyn faces four encoun- ters with McGraw's murdering Giants while the Phillies have six games left with the Boston Braves.
 A Wind-up of this tempestuous sort is a fitting climax for one of the great seasons of baseball. Both lead ing cOntenders are forced to finsh against the toughest competition they can meet where the interest is like ly to be carried on within a breath of the closing game.
 We knew the price of lumber had gone up, but it never occurred to us that it had advanced $2 an inch. It remained for that stirling or ster- ling economist, Colonel Ebbets, to discover the sharp upward turn.

FILL UP OUR REGIMENT
FIRST

~ HE East Oregonian today
VI publishes a letter from a
Portland gentleman who
with others plans to form a ca
valry troop in Portland for
which he desires recruits from
Pendleton.
This effort along with SINH
lar efforts by local men are
praiseworthy yet they are apt
to be futile even if war with
Mexico should come which now
seems unlikely. There is no
certainty such organizations
would be taken by the govern
ment.
For those actually desiring
to go to the border for military
duty there is opportunity in the
Third Oregon regiment now at
the front. Seven hundred men
are wanted to fill the ranks of
the Third Oregon to war foot
ing. Enlistments for this pur-
pose are timely and those who
enlist will be assured of service
in a well organized, equipped
and Officered command actu-
ally on duty.
It is needless to form new
commands for service in Mexico
or on the border when the regi-
ments now there have need Of
all the recruits that can be had.
Efficiency calls for filling up
the Third Oregon first.

ted States. The regretful part
of such a struggle would be
the really unnecessary sacrifice
of life among the youth of the
country in a war that nobody
wants, a war that excites no
enthusiasm except possibly
from a patriotic determination
to vindicate the purposes of
the United States and to give
Mexico free and stable gov
eminent. If forbearance and
generous consideration will
prevent war and bring the un-
ruly leaders of the Mexican
people to their senses, a great
gain will have been made.
There should be no abatement
in our preparation for war, and
an abundant force should be
massed along the border to act
upon unforeseen emergencies.
Peace, however, will be for our
own interest; not merely in pre-
serving the friendship of Mexi-
co, but also in maintaining ami.
cable relations with all South
American republics, who are
keenly jealous Of our activities
in this direction"
In other words the situation
calls for the very course Presi-
dent Wilson is pursuing. He Is
preparing for war but is striv-
ing to make the use Of our sol
diers unnecessary.
