THE EAST OREGONIAN IS A
NEWSPAPER.

~ HE East Oregonian's es-
VI teemed local contempOr-
airy seems shocked that
this newspaper should give its
readers the benefit of legiti-
mate news in connection with
our school affairs. The Trib-
une policy seems to be one of
news suppression-of making
itself into a school board organ
rather than newspaper. Such
. policy on their part is entire
" satisfactory to the East Ore
gOnian. Our notion of duty,
however, calls for service to
our readers and to the COM
munity rather than the board
or to any school official. The
people are entitled to the facts
whatever they may be, and in
as far as possible they will be
given this news in a fair and
impartial manner by the East
Oregonian. The East Oregoni-
an is not trying to stir up
trouble nor to wage war upon
anyone, but it does refuse to
enter a conspiracy to delude
the public with reference to
this or any other subject. When
a newspapers becomes unwil-
hing or unable to give its read
ers legitimate news on legiti.
mate subjects whether it likes
the news or not) it ceases to be
worthy of public confidence
and patronage.

TOWARD PEACE

~ RESIDENT WILSON is
~ quoted as feeling encour-
= aged over the peace out
look. and there is reason.
Whereas a few weeks ago the
warning nations thought only
of war and more war, they are
now talking Of the possibilities
of peace. Each side has en-
deavored to set forth the terms
on which they will end hostili-
ties. These expressions clear
the air to some extent. Each
belligerent now knows what is
wanted by the other. Though
they are far apart as yet time
may bring about a change. A
few more months of fighting
may cause each side to relent
somewhat, particularly if the
results are indecisive. Come
what may the first steps tow
ard peace have been taken.
