They carry loads for every private .enterprise that is found in the city; they boom private business day and night; they give column . after column . to churches, societies commercial clubs, labor unions and organiz ations of business men; fight battles for the city without hope of reward excepting the good will of the community, and makeenemies for themselves by defending citizens and lDatitu-. tioim and run a general free ad vertising bureau for the com munity, that is only equalled in scope by the free soup houses run by the Salvation Army. All these things are part of the load of the willing pack mule, and he never complains at the weight of the load. But he does complain when business men; give forage that rightfully belongs to the pack mule to some other fellow who is not entitled to it. When money goes out of town for job kwowwiu transient concern that does not fight the battfes of the community, then the pack mule has a right to complain. ' When you have any forage to give out, give it to the newspapers, the pack mules that carry year loads while others sleep . Pendleton East Oregou-ian. The, SEAETLE GROCERY CO.
