We have not reached that import
ant point in history when there" is
world-wide peace. 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.

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
