A pageant "Klatawa," depicting the evolntion of travel from. the early days of the. Indians to the present time, has been written for the celebration by Prof. W. P. O. Thatcher, of the University of Ore gon. More than 3000 people will participate In the production Indians, cowboys, pioneer resi dents, lumberjacks, and all types of transportation from Indian "pole drags" to the modern loco motive and airplane, will partici pate In the picturesque parade which features the fete.

It will lessen the distance between San Francisco and Portland by 23.7 miles as well as reduce curves and grades. Special Teduced round trip ex cursion from all points on its lines in Oregon to Eugene will be put into effect by the Southern Pacifia for the celebration. I not as an ally, the might of American arms was thrust. And we think that this lapsus linguae of the British for eign secretary, for such it must have been, effectually disposes of the self ish Eupropean contention that the war was ours from the first, and that the allies and America were co-partners therein. The British foreign secretary tail s at great length of the good faith of Great Britain and of her determina tion to pay her debts. He speaks of the British aversion for whining and he extols the immemorial British hon or. Does not all this protestation of lofty motive connote the extreme re luctance of the debtor, and is it not threaded with a whine to the last syl lable? Good faih? They sully the term who employ it in open or covert dispraise of the nation that aided them when their need was dire, and which might for all that may be said to the contrary have let the contin ent of Europe stew in its own vital juices. They say that a triumphant Germany would have attacked Amer ica with armed, exultant forces. Pos sihyl. This much is certain, however; our triumphant associates in the laet var have surely attacked us with weapons of slander and malice. If Europe were to call again, terribly in her fright and agony, this nation might consider well the record that now is being written. And then Why, then, in all liklihood, we would gird ourselves and go to the rescue for it is by such impulses that the Amer ican governs his conduct. Mont Bundy was in the city from his north-end ranch Saturday.

Keene, Court House .... 12.32 J. W. Kellogg, Cur. Ex 15.00 BRITISH FAIR PLAY AND THE WAR DEBT (Orcgonian.) The verbal contribution of the Brit ish foreign secretary to discussion of the war debt was manifestly spoken with a double tongue. It is difficult for Americans to read it with patience when they comprehend that beneath its carefully chosen phrases, its dig nified professions of high integrity, runs the same sneer which heretofore has been more openly indulged. Let us concede that it is a valuable ac quisition to diplomatic literature, since it succeeds in saying much that it purports to deny and even to re buke. By implicaion, ever so careful ly suggested and left to burgeon in the thought of Sir Austen's auditors and readers, the United States still is represented as a miserable skinflint. Let us see if some few of the re marks of the foreign secretary do not lead adroitly to such conclusions. "We borrowed money from the United States for the purpose of a war in which they and we were engaged," he observed. And again, "You must not nsk us to say, and other people must not ask us to say, that this (payment of the war debt to the United States) was the best solution that might be arrived at in the interests of the vorld at large." And further, "We would have been prepared, and glad ' prepared, to wipe the slate ciean of all these abligations among the nllied and associated powers as be ing part of our contribution to the great cause in which we were oil en gaged." Then, dryly, "That solution did not commend itself." But the master stroke, the most insinuative incitement to ill will, was this tribute to the magnaiT.inity and honor of Great Britain: "We have since then adopted as our policy that from our debtors we will ask only so much as will meet the payments which we have t meet ourselves." Impeccable, can did, upright Britain, scorning the re pudiation of its war debt, but urging with, the same tongue and in the same breath an increased antipathy toward the United States! Sir Austen bids the late allies of Grent Britain, who are in her debt, as they are in ours, consider that such rayments as they make to her are wrung from them by a reluctant friend for the satisfaction of an un natural and callous creditor. Thus we are condemned not alone for the endeavor to collect some minor por tion of the direct indebtedness of France, but we are equally condemned for the collection by Great Britain of France's debt to her! But for this American avarice, said Sir Austen in JUST ARRIVED: A Carload of New Cars Including both open and closed models and trucks. These cars have the new baked enamel finish and are equipped with starters and balloon tires. The prices are: Touring $471.31 - Roadster $450.83 Truck Chasis $405 Tudor Sedan $595.25 Fordor Sedan $646.45 Coupe $585.00 These prices are not f.o.b. somewhere else, BUT RIGHT HERE IN HEPPNER. Come in and look them over. Latourell Auto Co. Authorized FORD, FORDSON and LINCOLN Dealer effect, the world would be almost Utopian today. What world? That world which received the blood of multitudinous human sacrifice at the bidding of the war monster Europe had shaped and coddled. In the rear ing of that vast, insatiate monstros ity this country had no part, but in tha subjection of it we gave without stint of men and gold. And they, pic-aching brotherhood and magnan imity, have their damages in terri torial acquisitions and repniaticns while we are paid in the brass coin of insincere and artful criticism. Yet for one distinction we Ameri cans should thank Sir Austen. He spoke of the "allied and associated powers," and with this definition of the war pact we have no quarrel. The allies were the allies, and it was their war they waged. Into this war, as an individual nation, as an associate and k: Certainly They are Sy n.
