CLARK Wood of the Weston Leader takes up the Cold Springs road proposition in a column long editorial this week and declares he is for the move, "tooth and nail.' He has always advocated bonding for permanent roads and rejoices that fanners are showing a keen interest in the enterprise The only objection offered by the Leader is complimen tary. It is argued no $100,000 subscription should be neces sary and that county bonds should be voted for the entire amount needed. This on the ground the road will benefit the entire county and should be built wholly at the public expense. This is encouraging. If a bonding plan would be good the scheme suggested by Mr. Earnhart is still better. The reason for the subscription of course is to eliminate any pos sibe criticism that might be made to the effect those near est the road will be most bene fitted and should pay more than others. There are other features that make the Cold Springs proposition attractive. Pen dleton will be taxed along with the rest of the county to pay for this road. Yet it i3 no sel fish move for Pendleton, Ad ams, Athena and Weston will have just as good service from such a road as will Pendleton. The same will be true of Mil ton and Freewater excepting their haul will be longer. Through such a road the greater portion of the county will have direct connection with the open river and ' the consumers will secure substan tial benefits continuously from lower freight rates. On out going freight such as wheat, fruit and wool there will be such benefits for the producers that the first cost of the road loses its importance. the allies and opposed by the Germans and vice versa. When a human being be comes crazed his friends-be come more tolerant because of his state. The United States can well assume this attitude towards the European nations. They are all our friends and they are all good people. The British view that the Germans are all fiends and the German view that Britons are in league with the Devil are each in er or. The people are alright. It is the war that is wrong. ere the American govern ment to hold the fighting na tions to that degree of respon sibility they would have to face in normal times we could very quickly get into senous trouble ourselves and the game would not be worth the cost. IT MAY LAST 14 MINUTES. ztOL. Henry Watterson, not- VtJ ed editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, may be a fossil politically speaking, but his mind seems able to grasp some new features in- the world's progress. Comment ing on the launching of a new $14,000,000 United States bat tleship March 16, the Colonel said: "Some day, in the event of war, a little submarine may run alongside this $14,000,000 terror of the sea, which bears guns heavy enough to splinter the rock of Gibraltar, and dis charge a torpedo that will sink the vessel in less than 14 min utes." The showing made by the German submarines justifies such a prediction. Scarcely a day passes that does not report the sinking of from one to three British or French merch antmen by submarines. Yet all the time the English home fleet, double in strength the total German fleet; is on guard but unable to save British ship ping or to seek out and destroy the German navy. When few pinhead submarines, so to speak, with a handful of men each can terrorize the sea and destroy battleships or merch antmen with ease it is time to wonder if the day of the bat tleship is not fast passing. government should interfere with piracy on the high seas when that piracy takes the form of exorbitant charters due to war conditions. Let our filibustered also show the Italians how they will become involved in war with some one somewhere if they take practical steps to relieve the shipping shortage and care for Italian trade. This, though other nations may state in ad vance they will not obiect. 1 As long as there are heret ics anywhere who would serve the public instead of mammon our anti-ship purchase critics have a sacred duty to perform Un to Rome. Now is the time for all good people to make ready for tha clean-up day set by the coun cil and the civic club; make Pendleton the cleanest town o its size in the world.
