Our friend Strain really deserved ' an automoblie, and just look what Pendleton went and handed him! ' As .to .Cottonwood, it really wouldn't, but we just reckon it will have to. ' Tk UWU ia still tlirnuinir fits over notional prohibition but no "body cares, as it is only the New York World. - Looks as though Congress had tried to cut off the country's note to spite Wilson's face. Weston thought it -would le leading the county hn it found it had voted seven to one for road bonds, but it was only somewhere ' in the middle of the procession. We do not feel justified in as suming from an ordinance pub lished elsewhere that the city fath ers seek to make of public dancing a source of public revenue. ' Appropriate is, not the .word to describe the action or inaction of Congress. - '. V .-. The total vote in Umatilla county on, the road bond issue was 3884 yes, 484 no, or a majority of 3400 in favor, of f he bonds. This was approximately eight to ' one an ImW victory. Weston's vote' of .215 for and "31-against was. about seven to one-ror 'n l'ne w,tn the county average outside of Pen dleton. Pendicton gave better than a ten to one vote, for the bonds. The. result exceeded the expecta tions of the most sanguine bond supporters, and shows' plainly that the county's good people were only PATEUT, WHOLE VKEAT and GRAHAM FLOOR .
