I cannot consent to any abridgement of the rights of American citizens in any respect. The honor and self-respect of the Na tion is involved.

To forbid our people to exercise their rights for fear we might be called upon to vindi cate them would be a deep humiliation, indeed."

THE PRESIDENT FIRM Pa SITION :1 reterence to the presi dential election is about the same as discovered by Judge Maloney while in California. With the average citizen partisanship is only skin deep. Mr. Average Voter is moved principally by his general im pression of the situation. He laims to vote his own interests fland when all appearances in- ?ntures ,. , , , . r , dicate that his personal wel nd the I fare and his country's safety imay best be served by the el- 1 pot-inn nf a rnrtin man hp will vote for the man with scarcely a thought of politics. Main men pride themselves on be- ing independent of party label-; I when independence is in order, I As to President Wilson's re-election certainly all signs jus- tily such action. The nation 'was never more prosperous. Business is brisk. Prices are jgood and there are no idle men j in the country. Some attribute the condition to the war, but iit is unfair to do so. Much I credit belongs to the Wilson i administration for having en i acted the new currency law live, aggressive communi- ty spirit involving a read iness on the part of peo ple to put money and work in o the upbuilding o;' the city is the most valuable asset any place can have. Pendleton has had such a spirit in the past. Without such a spirit we would not have one of the best known manufacturing estab lishments in the northwest. We would not have the most successful outdoor show ever held in the country'- We would not have the largest high school enrollment in eastern Oregon. We would not have a state hospital located here. We would not have a water t-upply that is a valuable asset and a natatorium to be proud of. The community spirit is now called upon to aid in the es tablishment of an industry that will add materially to the city's payroll and volume of business. Let the answer be prompt and decisive. Those reservation bridges are needed badly according to many men who should know. Therefore if the government won't pay two thirds the cost why not accept their offer to meet half the expense. It will be better to do that than to keep on building temporary : bridges each year. Meanwhile despite all the preparations by the allies the Germans are there with the goods whenever fighting oc curs. Don't ever forget the fact the gravity water system also 'lowered local insurance rates. Pendleton has had many would-be harvester factories; it now looks like we are to have 1 a real one. and material and her numbers on both fronts, until we overthrow hoi defense That will be a long fight." I Hut notwithstanding the recent large voluntary enlistments, "More men ars needed at once," in the opln- j ion ol the Observer. "If this year's, campaign is to secure or Insure lb UCCesl of the allies on any .front;" anil "the one gigantic fact" Kng'at'd ; has to grapple with is this "If German; retains her dominion over the Hapsburg.

And so. strong, unceasing effore is I being made to win English sentiment over to the "long fight" view war. It is a newspaper educat campaign on the line of mllltar; cessity. Peace proposals auCl have been made on the part of many, presumably with authortt the winds: It's the long fight tor England! And the "grinding down" business of this long fight: it Is fully realized I that it is a grinding down of the lift" of the land but on the principle thatj "no one lives if the country is lost." It is. In the English Sentiment, a fight to the last life! And the cry for mole men Is sweeping the best life of the land to the war fronts; the fresh youth of the country Is In eviden e in all the war pictures now.

It adds a delicious flavor and gives the brown crispness that makes fried potatoes appetizing as well as wholesome. Cottolene is especially good for frying vegetables of all kinds. It is a real aid to digestion. Use Cottolene when you fry chicken, fish or vegetables in crumbs or batter; you will be delighted with the excellent results. Order a regular supply of Cottolene from your grocer. It is put up in pails of convenient sizes.

A LONG FIGHT, (Atlanta Constitutor ) The London Observer, in an edito rial review of the war to date, and a forecast of what must be accomplish ed to win out, says that It "will be a long fight and those whothink other wise flatter their imagination with a vain thing." "More men for the long fight" is the cry through columns of editorial comment, and it is frankly admitted that In the "Grinding down" process lies Britain's greatest hope for fim'.l victory.
