BOND CLOTHES

;-i
Wearers of our clothes are usually complimented or the style and smartness of
their appearance. To be conscious of being dressed correctly and becomingly
makes one feel more self assured.
Whether you want to dress smartly or conservatively Bond Clothes can take
care of you in either case.
Perhaps the things we say in our advertising may appeal to you as egotism.
We don't want you to think that. There is only one way to put the fact before
you. Go to any store. Pick out any make that is considered as exemplifying
quality and then give us a chance to show you. We are confident if you will
permit yourself to see these clothes and also try them out that will be the end
of it. And ever after you will be an enthusiastic wearer of Bond Clothes.

But when the coal company

other lawyers set forth that
each was entitled under the

If you waste 1100.000 dollars of the
taxpayers' money every year that Is
good business. If you put the same
amount In a permanent, interest pay

and not to be tolerated.

minute of every hour or every day in

Itself Millions of dollars annually
and there Is no road from Umatilla
to Pendleton, what Is going to bap
pen? Does 1'endleton or any other sec
tion want the macudam road to go to
pieces'.' Heretofore all the road tax
money of the county has been avail
able for the construction of this road.
The last legislature passed a law
making such a thing Impossible in
the future. Now 70 per cent of the
road tax money must be expended In
the district In which It originate. If
the bonds arc defeated where can
the county get money to hnrd surface
