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

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,

And so. strong, unceasing effore is I
being made to win English sentiment
over to the "long fight" view

campaign on the line of mllltar;

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

A recipe for delicious
fried potatoes
The use of Cottolene for frying potatoes always brings the
most gratifying results.
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.
Write our General Offices, Chicago,
for a copy of our real cook book,
"HOME HELPS."

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
