Rockville has always been a healthy

Rockville has always been a healthy place to live n, but it can be kept so only by the eternal vigilance of the citizens and the city officials. In view of all that has been written we would urge upon the people of this city that they do all in their power to pre- vent a single case of infantiIe paralysis by observing the simplest of sanitary rules. The city, of course, is obligated to protect it's inhabitants, and we sim cerely hope the officials will not sit hack and do nothing; the time to act is now-if this disease once gets a start here it will be too late.-RockviIle Journal

Stories of the War

Americans Seeing Service in Canadian
 Regiment.
 American citizens have seen hotter fighting in the last two weeks than any American since the AppOmatox campaign. They have endured as heavy shell fire as the German guns eyer directed at the British front and know what it was to charge into the

~ 0RTLAND has had some
- jolts of late and they
have awakened substan-
tial citizens to the need of ac-
ton. There are signs Portland
is going to see to it that real
water transportation is estab-
lished on the upper Columbia.
II seems Portland's only hope
of saving her wheat business
But of course a million boats
on the upper Columbia could
not get Umatilla cOunty's
wheat unless there is a way of
getting that wheat to the
river. Meanwhile we have a
s980,000 bond proposition be-
fore the people and thus far
the generals in charge of the
matter have provided for no
outlet from the wheat belt to
the Columbia, though the stu.
alton has been pointed out
many times and the value of
such a freight road is obvious.

IF VILLA is DEAD

NAA HETHER or not Villa is
~ dead is an open ques-
ton. It will take SUBJ
stantial confirmation to con-
vince the public of his demise.
If he is dead, however, he is
where he belongs and the raid
on Columbus is avenged. If he
is dead the Mexican problem
is solved for the present as far
as this country is concerned.
II he is dead he will be mourn
ed by those Mexicans who be-
lieve in him. He will be
mourned, even more so per-
haps, by those Americans who
wanted to see him make all the
trouble he could not only for
Carranza but for our admins
so as to force a con-
quest of Mexico by the United
States.
If Villa is dead it will be sad
news for our tories.

COMMON SENSE CALLS FOR
WILSON'S REELECTION

a ATURDAY nights dem
onstration in Pendleton
proved what is also OBJ
served elsewhere-that Presi-
dent Wilson has an immense
popularity in the hearts of the
people and has the confidence
and esteem of hosts Of repub-
licans as well as of the forces
in his own party. In fact there
is more sincerity for him on the
part of some republicans than
on the part of some democrats.
"A republican supporting the
president does so out of gen.
uine sentiment for him. There
are democrats who shout his
praises out of political advisa-
bility.
The reason why there is
general confidence in the pres
ident are simple.
He has put through a
constructive legislative pro-
gram of vast benefit to the
country, the most important
feature being the new banking
law. That this and other items
if legislation have been vastly
beneficial to the people as a
whole, though often disliked
by special interests, can be
proven Just as often as the sub
iect is debated on its merits.
2-The country under Pres.
ident Wilson is enjoying the
greatest prosperity in many
years.
3-The president is a man
of peace and wishes the nation
to remain at peace. He is no
weakling but stands firm for
all important American rights
Under international law. He is
for greater military Drebared-
ness, but he is no militarist. He
prefers to get results by diplo-
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-04-17

macy rather than by slaughter
and he gets results, despite the
sneers of those who rail at him
because he does not sit strad-
die of a cannon and wave a
sabre at every country with
which we may have some tenn
porary differences.
President Wilson has made
good and the logic of events
calls for his reelection. To
ask his defeat is to ask people
to throw away their common
sense and ieopardize the coun-
try's best interests for the sake
O.. a partisanship that deserves
no such consideration.
