KNEW IT WAS COMING.
, At last Portland is face to fae with
the soap-box orator, and to the cred
it of Mayor AJbee bo it Ik said, he in
handling the situation properly by re
fusing to let inflammatory oratory
flow in the Mate' metropolis.
Strange a it may scc-rn, nearly the
entire Mate knew the climax vrau com
ing1 long before Portlanderg teemed
to realize it. Almost two year ago
it was apparent the red flag would
be hoiMed in Portland onle ome
firm ttepK were taken to stop the
blear-eyed agitator who was then
and ha ever ince been, a nightly
visitor on the principal thoroughfares
cf that city preaching treason and
c!a hatred.
Free fcpeech and inflammatory j
ipeech are two entirely different
things. Portland hesitated for fear the'
free speech bugbear would be raised
and her hesitation ha been expensive j
in more way than one.
The climax came Tuesday evening
when the Burns crowd of agitori.
(not socialists) mounted soap boxes
at S:xth and Washington streets and
began defaming Governor West, Sher
iff Word and Mayor Albee.
Many of us do not admire Governor

The recall is for extreme cases, and
in such it should be used. But it is no
toy; it is not a plaything.
We believe it would be a good idea to
have an experience meeting in la

view of the matter, and with his po
lice department and the sheriff's of
fice swooped down on the agitatoi
with the announcement that once and
for all time street speaking of such a
brand as has been peddled in Port
land for years must cease. He did
absolutely right and it is a matter of
regret that no mayor of Portland in
the past had the courage to do what
was done Tuesday evening.
WHY RECALL FITZGERALD?
Now the air is full of a recall on
Councilman Fitzgerald.
But, why?
Mr. Fitzgerald has done nothing to
justify a recall. There is no evidence
to show that he uses the word "can't"
or that he extricates pieces ef Jim
Russell's or Fred Bock's meat from
his molars with a lead pencil.
We thought "Fitz" was behaving
very well; that he was working first
rate, barring an occasional grouch
he has at the Observer, all of
which counts for nothing so long as
he hit the ball in municipal matters.
There is as much cause fcr recall
ing Councilman Fitzgerald as there
i for the recalling of Mayor Hall, and
there is no cause for either.
But, if in the opinion of the sov
ereign squatter, whose disposition is
paramount in such matters, there must
be a series of recalls probably "Fitz'
will not object to joining in i.
race.
Over in Walla Walla they are try
ing to recall their commissioners on
the ground that the municipal ceme

Excavations for Brick Structure A
Imbler Under Way.
Excavation for the new Imbler
bank building has been ' started ac
cording to President George L. Cleav
er, of the institution, while he wa i
the city today. The bank is to be
built of pressed brick and it is to be

its height. It may be constructed an

to be decided later.
aired; let every man have his say and
get it out of his system, and then
unite by swearing allegiance to the
city first, last and all of the time, for
a new start.
"The streets," aid a Chautauqua
speaker at Gladstone this week, are
not for ladies in hobble skirts neith
er are they for old men." He did not
include the tight fitting skirt which
has the hobbled garment bested and
laid in the wardrobe.
A contest between towns and cities
of Oregon seems to be on, and the
question at stake is among the ladies
namely which city can produce the
lady who can wear the tightest skirt.
And if you will notice, no don't notice
it isn't nice.
The best recall that could be given
La Grande would be a recall of some
of the money expended in years past
when inefficiency marked the investment.
