We have the population, the location and the modern advantages necessary to make the school a success. On the other hand such an institution will be of direct benefit to Pen dleton in many ways. The at tendance at the Monmouth normal last winter was 350 and the school attendance at present is over 800. These fig ures give an index to what such an institution will mean in a commercial way. But it will do more than bring students here. It will bring families to locate in Pendleton because of the school and in many cases they will continue to reside here after the children have obtained a normal course. A good normal school will in crease Pendleton's permanent population to a decided extent. It will add to the city's intel lectual and moral tone because an educational institution is al ways a center of refinement.

Store Crowded Every Day ALL SALES CASH ONLY As 1 am retiring from the furniture business all sales must be for spot cash. Prices have been slaughtered a ihi sunk to bed rock. The highest price you can pay is the actual cost of an article and in many instances far below cost. You cannot lose, even if you should buy with your eyes shut, for everything represents a bar ing the president for partisan reason the admission is made that his course is justified and patriotic. When the chief anti-Wilson paper in the state is forced to such a hedging, vacillating course it is indeed time the Oregon managers were listing Justice Hughes for a campaign trip to this state. His fences are in bad shape. SHARKS tion, and a convincing yarn it is. Perhaps it would be just as well to print shark tales as fic tion strange truth may fare better in masquerade.' A lot of people who hayi been clamoring for war with Mexico refuse to enlist and re-j fuse to put up any money for the families of men who do go. , "GOOD BYE, DADDY!" HRIVEN into a corner on J the subjei of th- Wilson Mexican policy the Port land Oregonian admit the ad ministration is right and de nies that the Oregonian has ever wanted war. Listen to this: The Oregonian invites any of its "non-partisan" friends to reproduce from its columns any challenge to conflict with Mexico, or any power, so explicit and defiant a threat "by force of arms" against the de facto government of mexico. Vet The Oregonian would have it understood that it aoprovej this patri otic attitude of the Wil son administration, voic ed in tin note of Secre tan Lansing to the South American powers. Is it imt a direct confession that war with Mexico should be averted if possible and that the policy of President Wilson has been as near COfTSd as any policy could be? Possibly without intending us muck the Portland morning paper has come over to the Wilson tamp. Though fight- flf HERE are skeptical minds l which still begrudge cre dence to the shark tales that travel hither from the At lantic seaboard, says an ex change. They point out that this is the silly season, which was formerly' dedicated to the sea serpent. Owing, perhaps, to reduced navigation the lat ter has not been reported these past two years and the skep tics have been denied the plea sure of flouting it. The shark tales come with circumstantiality and much tragic detail, lacking only the proof of eyewitnesses. A bell boy at a summer hotel had his legs bitten off in the sea by something unseen, and the doc tor who examined the corpse declared, "from his knowledge of sharks." that it was his opi nion a shark had done it. An other death, similar at a point 20 miles from where the boy killed, likewise lacked pos testimonv of the shark. But the deaths have positively occurred there -can be no hoax about that, w And the At lantic coast believes in the -hark or sharks. There is noth ing essentially incrediable in the presence of sharks on the New Jersey coast. Kipling declared most convincing waj actual but extraordi difficult of belief wi as a lie. Together other reporters on he declares he saw Dent tossed up fron of the deep in a dying condi tion by a submarine volcano. The other two reporters wired the story as a story of fact to their papers, which refused to print it as preposterous.
