In going to La Grande, Prof, Hamp j ton will leave a great many friends Jn I'endleton who will regret his depart ure genuinely. As principal of the high school for nine years he was largely Instrumental in raining that institution to its present high ttand ard. While he has always taken a ci'Hiiaioii fill i in an voueuuonai ste Hvitles in the city, his greatest succeayi here has been as a "boy man."

There is considerable resentment in Pendleton over the posters being sent out by the men back of a wild west show to he staged at Ashland on July 4-5-6. Tri bold type is printed "See tbe Pendleton Round-up at Ash land July 4-5-6." wrth a slogan, imi tative of the local slogan, reading "Let: im Buck " The fact that there is absolutely no connection between the Pendleton liound-l'p and the tittle show which ih to he staged at Ashland makes the advertisements manifestly fraudulen'.. In the view of the Round-up directors. The misrepresentation, it is pointed out, will do the local show an injus- j lice inasmuch as it Is but a small af fair and can In no -ay vie with the big September attraction in this city. Other places, putting on wild west thoWa, have borrowed the name "RoUXtd-Up" and have adopted the Kound-t'p slogan but none have ever been so brazen as deliberately to use tbe name Pendleton.

He promised in behalf of Am erica to uphold the Monroe Doctrine. He promised that when the time comes America will be ready to Join the other nations to "see that the kind of Justice prevails everywhere that we believe In." Being military does not mean mili taristic, the president said. Mention ing a small number who love their native country more than the coun try of their adoption he said, "nobody who does not put America first can consort with us." "The Fnited States wants nothing that it must get by war." he contin ued, "these are dais when we are making preparations. The thing most commonly discussed is preparedness. Undoubtedly it is a present imperative duty that America be prepared. But we in ust know what we are preparing for. "Preparedness might be a hazard ous thing if we did not know what we wanted to do with the force we ac cumulate to get Into fighting shape. 1 hie thing in which our forefathers took pride was that the civil power was superior to the military power."
