Were it so; then the governor's sensational and sen timental'utterance would find favor. At. this present time with foreign powers in' not e' best humor it' is well to build ships. ' No one wants trouble but at- the -same- time every one hopes that this . nation will not ; lessen her position in' the strength of naval matters. We are none too strong at best. ' : PLEASES. KING, THE ROAD DRAG MAN. The coming of King, the road drag men, to La Grande and other points in Union County, is one of the very best things that could happen at this time when good roads are a subject of earnest discussion in most parts of the state. . The King road drag is the econ omical implement with which to make good highways. This part of Oregon i not thickly enough settled to enter tain for a moment the hardsurface country highway. It is all and more than some cities can afford, to say nothing of the miles of road necessary in the valley. Those who are advocates of hard surface highways should not condemn the King road drag method before they know exactly what it will do, and the best way to learn about this is to attend the King lectures and see his demonstration of the work he is capable of doing with the little three concerned drag. And what Mr. King can. do, any one can do. There is o patent devices or expensive parts of the King road drag. It is a practical little implement for everyone to use. After all, to make a good road means to have good drainage, proper grading and to prevent holes from forming in the highways where moisture can collect. The Grande Ronde valley can have first rate highways by using the drag, and it ' takes no bond issue, either. ' The northwest will not have the Frisco fair tourists unless those tour ists want to put up the extra cost of a ticket according to railroad and steamship men. After all, there is a good deal of equity and justice in their position on the matter. Pendleton church people who neg lected religious worship last Sunday in order to ride bucking ponies for the entertainment of a few Grand Opera stars are getting what they deserve a good grilling from the preachers of that city. Dayton at Arcade a Wonder as - Vocalist. The large crowds at the Arcade have clapped their hands earnestly at each performance of Mr. Dayton, the one"' man quartet, for his act is the first ever witnessed'of the kind in La Grande In a 'clear" Jofcp he carries all four parte of a quartet and round ed tones, brings out the harnaony so. distinct that one would think there were three other voices behind the scenes. There are not, however, and he does the whole thing alone. . ' Mr. Dayton is off of the Pantatres circuit for one week and after filling his engagement with Mr. Gardinier of the Arcade tomorrow night, will leave for Spokane, where n will open with the Pantages Sunday evening. Nothing So Good for a Cough or Cold When you have a cold you want the best medicine obtainable so as. to get rid of it with the least possible delay. There are many who consider Cham berlain's Cough Remedy unsurpassed. Mrs. J. Boroff, Elida, Ohio, says, "Ever since my daughter Ruth was cured of a severe cold and cough by Chamberlain's Cough Remedy two years ago, I have felt kindly disposed toward the manufacturers of that pre paration. I know of nothing so quick to relieve a cough or cure a cold." For sale by all dealers. Adv. : .. .' SENTIMENT VERSUS REASON. Governor Ammons of Colorado, in a fit of sentiment before the west ern governors said: "The cost of the average battleship if applied to irri gation would furnish homes for 4,000 people." This sounds good. And the indi vidual who choses to let sentiment Attention Knights Templar. There will be a regular meeting of East Oregon commandery No. 6 to night at Masonic hall.
