LARGELY A STATE OF MIND RESIDENTS of Pendleton have been smiling and chuckling over the results of the school election Monday afternoon ...U T A T- 1 ( il 1 1 wiien u. t, ree ar, ws eietueu us a memuer oi ine scnuoi board to sueceed E. L. Smith, who is retiring after 18 years of service. , flThey are not smiling at Mr. Fee's expense, because he is held in tin esteem that can not be questioned, and his percentage of votes secured indicates that he Has been complimented as few men ever are. , 'The smiles can best be explained on the ground that they are th$ reaction that, came to Pendleton when Pendletonians found they were .altogether at a time when they thought themselves divided. The air during election day was full of ru mors of this and that act which the opposing forces were sup posed to be performing to confound their "enemies." When the ballots were counted, following one of the heaviest votes capt for many a year, the factions found that their opposition to eaph other had been nothing more than a state of rfiind. Each side was voting for the other side's candidate. The rumors of "double crossing" were proved to be without foundation. The factions were both seeking the same man. After the election was all over and the results were made known, if the truth must be told, Pendletonians felt a bit sheep ish. They had been accusing their neighbors falsely. Their "enemies" were of the same mind they were. Out of 585 votes cast, 581 were for Alger Fee. They had been crouched in a pos ture of defense, expecting to get a stiff jolt. Instead, they found themselves all of one mind. Then they simply smiled at their former fears and suspicions. It certainly is an excellent thing to have so much interest dis played in a school election. The schools will be none the worse for such interest, and 585 residents know that they have had a voice in the choice of a member of the board of education. iThe results should pave the way for a new mental attitude ori the part of those who have been indulging in the practice of trying to cut the ground from under their neighbor's feet. , Our paramount need right now in this day of violent preju dices is to have a bit more faith in the other fellow. When the truth is known, we find that he is very similar us in every way and if we become acquainted with the real man, he may be of one mind with us. At most, if he has a chance, in a majority o cases he will treat us as he is treated. ' i A fair deal to all men and a jealous insistence that in all things the best interests of Pendleton be held paramount to every other consideration are two good ideals for Pendletonians to bear in mind in order that the city may go forward. Good sports when they are sensible, follow those two ideals. , And the good sportsmanship of Pendletonians has never been consistently questioned. driver or one only partly under the influence of strong drink is a most serious menace. He not only endangers his own life and the lives of the other occupants of his car, but he endangers the lives of all who travel the highways. , A charge of manslaughter has been filed against .the driver of one of the death cars. Perhaps, he isiiot technically guilty of such a charge, but there is a guilt attaching to him and to all others who indulge in the pastime of liquoring up and stepping on the gas, and it is time that an example is being made of a few of them. It is also time to clean out wayside dens 'and clean up conditions which everyone knows exists- m spite of laws and officers., " - ' ; '' ; v - Tom Sims THE TOLL TELLS THE TALE Some people let a telephone ring as If they didn't know anybody.

Enforcement of the liquor laws in the county, however is done with such a gentle hand that most of us nre unaware that anything to curb booze selling is even in thf minds of county officials. The following editorial from the As toria Budget gives the toll of John Barleycorn there witMn th' past few months: Three dead and one seriously injured marks the scoi . of the ' last automobile tragedy of Clatsop county to which lit.uor con tributed. It follows in less than a week another accident in which one death resulted. It was only a few months ago that another car filled with men and women who had been out on an all-night party, went through th open draw of the Lewis and Clark bridge and drowned two of the occupants. . Six deaths within the lapse of a few months and within 8 ptretch of a few miles of road ! The same factors were present in each case: men and women in a roadhouse party; booze, reckless driving. The elimination of these roadhouses. where all night orgies and carousals are staged, is only one of the penalties demanded by the situation. There can be no defense of them. They arc breeders of vic jind they are allies of death. The results, as told in the three recent tragedies, speak for themselves. 1 But there is more to these death rides than the roadhouses. They are but one link in the chain of responsible circumstances. The ease with which liquor or stuff that is called liquor can be secured is notorious. Violations of the prohibition laws are so flairrant that they smell to heaven. There is a law making it a grave offense for a person, under the influence of liquor, to drive a car. It is a law that for the most part is so seldom used that it grows dusty on the statutes but it u a law la&i unouia oe rigorously enlorced.
