THE WATER SITUATION

~ HE attitude of the water
VI commission, as expressed
to the council by j. T.
Brown is correct and will be
generally endorsed. The pur-
ity of the water supply should
of course be protected and for
tunately this can be done with
out depriving the city of an
abundance of water for house
hold uses, for fire protection
and for irrigation, with certain
restrictions on irrigating dur
ing the drouth season.
The restrictions on irriga-
ton will not seriously incon-
venience anyone or destroy any
lawns. 1t is not necessary to
irrigate lawns every day and
the plan suggested of having
certain street numbers irrigate
one day and the other numbers
On the following should work
satisfactorily. 1t is the same
plan followed in Portland
where even with the wonderful
Bull Run water system there
has not been sufficient water
available for unlimited irriga-
ton.
At the same time Pendleton
wants and should never be sat
isfied until the supply of wa
ter is increased by extending
the line to include the Chap
lish springs which are supposed
to carry as much water as now
derived from the springs at
Thorn Hollow. In other words
by extending the pipe line only
three miles the supply of wa
ter may be doubled. If pos
sible this should be done before
another summer rolls around
and it is the belief of the East
Oregonian that the people will
sustain the water board in TAX
ing any steps necessary to Sc
cure this additional supply, the
use of which was contemplated
when the Thorn Hollow pro-
iect was undertaken.
The gravity water system
has been a great asset to Pen
ileton and has been a material
factor in the local upgrowth OF
he last few years. We will
never 90 wrong in extending
he system and thereby acquir-
NO the increased volume of
water made necessary by the
Increase in water consumption.
Much of the present incon-
7enience would have been
avoided if the city authorities
.ould have moved with more |
ipeed in the matter of pumping

FOR GERMANY ALSO

- K c r E I AIRY DANIELS
~ in his speech yesterday
told a great truth when
he said that the allied armies
fight for the German people
when they fight for democra-
cy and peace throughout the
world. If the allies win then
the power of German autocracy
will be broken and the people
will come into their own. The
civilian power will take prece-
dence over the military
throughout the fatherland.
Men will no longer be cattle in
the eyes of the war lords. Ci-
villains will not be crowded off
the sidewalks and away from
ticket stands by an arrogant
soldiery. There will be no re-
petitions of the Zabern affair.
Germans themselves will be
heavy gamers by an allied
victory. Paradoxical as it may
seem the real victory for Ger
many can come only through
defeat.
&~&S-SS SS-~SS
Somebody seems to have
learned that after all the Presi-
dent of the United States has
something to do with army af-
fairs and it is fortunate for
Oregon; with but TIT men
needed for this state on the
first draft it would have been
absurd to have drafted heads
of families needed at home and
men who for occupational rea-
sons can render more service at
home than they could give in
the field.
We will soon see what sort
of codger eX-Ambassador Ger
ard is. If he accepts the fictiti-
Gus honor offered him by King
George a host of people will be
disappointed as to his mental |
ity and democracy.

THE KAlsER's CHOICE.

The New York Herald is wonder
ing which United States senator the
Kaiser would choose as his best
friend, if he were permitted to select
a single member of the senate. Would
it be Laollette, FGronna, Stone, Reed,
Norris, Hardwick or Vardaman?
The Herald is inclined to vote for
Vardaman, in view of his recent ap-
Blauding of the actions of the Mon
treal mob which opposed conscrip-
ton.
We are inclined to differ with the
Herald on this point Time was
when we would have voted for La
toilette or Stone or Vardaman-but
they have been outclassed.
If we were permitted to make the
choice for the Kaiser and from the
kaisers standpoint solely, we would
l!nhesitatingly bestow the preference
lust now upon the brow OF the Hon
orable Thomas Wilhelm Hardwick, of
Georgia.
Herr Hardwick's bill to require the
consent Of sistered men before they
can be accepted in the selective draft
stamps him as the king pin in all the
Teutonistic senators now drawing
Uncle Sans money while working
for Germany.
The grand old state of Georgia has
sent many great men to Washington
and, in years agone, furnished to the
service of the nation some OF The
most illustrious statesmen on tha
pages of our history. But that was

ian element. The fact that man

That the task set before our sol
diers in this war is Godgiven and
that they are fighting the battles OF
civilization, of right and truth ana
Justice, cannot be denied by any stu
dent of the circumstances surround
ing the struggle.
The sacred significance OF the task
which our country has undertaken Is
beautifully stated by Editor Il. Ed
nonds, Of the Manufacturers Record.
IF ever on earth God spoke to men
and called them into His service, He
bias called this nation to its mighty
task-and everywhere fathers and
mothers should realize that God IS
bonoring their sons as He calls them
into the noblest. the most heroic, the
sublimest and hottest work to which
men ever dedicated their lives.
The very angels of Heaven well
envy the men who as Soldiers of
Civilization, follow the Redeemer's
example and offer their lives that
others may be saved And from their
mighty sacrifice and suffering shall
he born now earth and a new

Germany, does not appeal to
them, except that every act of
their organization which will sue
cessfully stop the production of
copper and the harvesting of the
wheat crop, is in full accord with
the plans of the agents Of Ger
many to help bring defeat in the
war. for freedom.
The probable outcome of the
closing down of the copper mines
at this time when the govern
ment and its allies need every
pound OF copper that can be pro-
duced, will be the taking over of
the mines by the government to
be operated under Federal con-
troll, which will mean fixed rate
of wages and hours of labor for
every employee, based on the
price of copper contracted for
by the government, which was
agreed to by the operators at II
cents per pound. At this price
for copper, the miners will work
eight hours, instead of six hours,
and the scale of wages will fall
below the $500 per day, which
they demand, and the mining
properties will undoubtedly be
guarded by Federal soldiers.
: The fact that until recently the
/. w. w. treasury was empty Of
funds, and that now that organi-
zation seems to have all the
money it needs to carry out the
plans of the agents of Germany,
is proof of the reasonable atti-
tude of this so-called labor or
ganization, and that Germany is
furnishing all the money needed
for bringing about the present
troubles in the copper mines. in
the shipping industries, the mu-
milton plants and the threatened
hold up of the wheat fields Of the
country.
Our country will not only have
to send an army to France to
battle for the freedom of the
world, but will have to keep an
army at home to fight the agents

you ever see successful town
without a successful local paper?
Did you ever see a successful
town without a local printing
shop. Did you ever see such a
print shop successful without the
support of the home banker, the
home merchant, the home grocer,
and all the home dealers? The
printing of lettcrheads, envel-
opes, statements. circulars and
cards is the life of business for
the local print shop. But it doesn't
matter if it's job printing or bed
room suites, if you send the
business away, give it to outside
cities, you deprive the local bust
ness of the support that makes
the towns prosperity.
The Home Town must hold the
business of the ranchers, it needs
the business of it's citizens, and
it needs the business of its busi-
nessmen also. But none of the
ranchers, citizens, bankers, print
ers or merchants can argue bust
ness into town; it must be de-
monstrated.

York City sending their orders
out of town? Reckon not.
