FOR SALE BY Brock & MoComas Company THE flODERN DRUQQ15TS PENDLETON (1 FRIDAY, JULY 25, 1902. SUPPRESS THE TOUGHS. Pendleton seems to be the center of attraction for toughs. The harvest season always brings a large float ing element into the city and this year it has brought more toughs than usual. Complaints have been made pressing them and the causes of com plaint registered dally against them The work of Marshall Blakley Wed nesday night in running in a band of hoboes was a step in the right direc non ana it ne Keeps tnis up for a few days it will be found that the city will soon assume a more quiet and orderly aspect. Suppress the toughs, is the general jilemaud of the best element. j Newspapers have risen and fallen in regular ori1fr In thn PnrMnnrI flntrt dally against the conduct of these but 0 people who ,mow manage. gentry and it is well that they should ment of the portland jQUrnal n(W ue suppressed, jnsucuirs and brawls have the utmost faith in that paper's success. With plenty of money, good newspaper sense and busines ability all combined the new management will Inspire Keneral confidence from ing along tne streets, ana some nave tlie beginning. ueen uonuerateiy insuitea on tne are reported nightly and the language used in some of the saloons and even on the streets is such that modest women are often shocked while walk- shin of all public utilities. Baring a few local details thut is tho wholo harrowing talo. A decade has passed, frought with its fusions, its Joining of hands and its sad farewells. Before us lie two recent Oregon platforms, a republican nnd a demo cratic! Reading down the bold de clarations of each of these wo find a fac-similo of that awful document of 1892, except the ono issue of govern ment ownership. Those vagaries used by democrats and republicans in 1892, to scare their children with, aro now the watcii words of their faith. Thoy have adopted that threatening ogre tlie Initiative nnd referendum 5 to l. They all voted for salaried onices Thoy all voted to elect tho united States senator by popular vote. They all said the toiler should organize and have his "rights and privileges." Tnoy all want good government, economl cally administered. V V What a change of heart and mind tho veara do brine about. What a softening of hard hearts and a melt ing of Icicles has taken place. The lava thrown out by those spouting agitators has changed into the fer tile soil and from it has grown a full harvest of reform. BERT HUFFMAN. Elmer N.

Before us lies a populist platform or lsuz. At tne time it was pro mulgated in Oregon, it was consider ed a political freak. The wise men shook their heads at its vagaries. The old war horses frisked and Bhled at Its nightmaro bug-a-boos. The or ators of the day rained down their condemnation upon it, like red hot pebbles from Mt. Pelee. It was ranked with anarchy. It was branded as unsafe. It threat ened revolution. It was the basis of Coxeylsm. .Business men went into spasms when thoy thought of Its chill ing breath. Politicians called down all the gods of the partisan calendar to protect themselves and their jobs. Those were unsettled times. The air .was full of dire forebodings. The were smoking. New seams, spouting Are and sulphuric gas, broke forth In a hundred places. Mrs. Lease came forth. Jerry Simpson arose. Peffer was unveiled. wane was armed and mounted. Ig natius uonneiiy, tue giant of the north, came Into the arena. Tom Watson flashed his shield acalnat tho sun light. It wbb a day and ago of evolution. It was a transitorv ner. lou in pontics. Men of conservative mlnd3, really wondered what the out come of the agitation would be. Let us glance at some of the hor rible details of that populistJc plot - It demanded the initiative and ref erendum. It called for flat salaries tor all public offices. W. F. EARNHEART, Office, Association Block. REAL ESTATE INSURANCE COLLECTIONS be so lost to all sense of decency that they pride themselves in select ing the foulest language possible and speak it in the highest note which the human voice has attained. In the afternoons they congregate on the shady side of the streets and form motley crew indeed. The pedestrian is compelled to elbow his way through the best he can, and the woman who finds It necessary to run the guantlet is likely to hear lan guage that will make her 'blush. It is claimed that the women no longer pass certain points on the streets If they can possibly avoid it, and do not come to the business portion of the city any oftener than is absolute ly necessary. They art not all bad men who use obscene and indecent language, but It is a loose habit of many of the best men. Neither are all of tho men toughs who congregate on the streets but the toughs are also there and the conditions have become such as to cause complaint to be made to the East Oregonian about the matter, "Something ought to be done!" it Is said. "It ought to be suppressed," says another. Under the laws of this state one cannot bo arrested for awearing, it seems, or using smutty language, and without a law and Its enforcement against such evils they are likely to continue, as a majority of tho class who possess the habit do -not have tho thoughtfulness or self-pride to curb themselves. Saloon men do not like to compel men to keep quiet in their places of business as 'tho boisterous element would become offended and go else where. Around tho bar is a great place for smutty stories and these are inspired by a few drinks, and for this reason the greatest amount of complaint comes against the saloons. Some saloon men, however, enforce an orderly house at tho risk of losing business. -None of them like a "loud" house nnd always call an officer when a breach of the law Js committed; but they necessarily put up with loud"1 month fellows as long as possible In order to hold their trade. , But it is well to suppress some of the offensive customs of the present floating element in Pendleton before Bnmnt hlnf wnmn mnv honnnn rt aan wlM1. , I It demanded the popular election of ... ui urUe ,t wijj united States Senators. go irom uau to worse and tho loud1 It reaffirmed tho principles laid talking and- obscene language would "own 'n the Declaration of Indepen become unbearable and tho fisticuffs i denco- .
