Below are published a few Items picked up at random from one Issue of a Pendleton paper, and shows that the dark duys prophesied for that community by certain Interests should prohibition carry, are far from being of the huo they were painted before election. Should any one doubt their truthfulness they are Invited to write to those whose name appear or the mayors of the cltlee mentioned. C. 8. Terpennlng has let the contract to L. Dunlnp for the erection of a modern dwelling; to cost In the neigh borhood of 12500. and to he located St tl Tusttn street, Pendleton. A new city hall to cost" 135,000 Is now In the course of construction. A 170.000 federal building Is now 8 certainty. The Pendleton Wool Scouring plnnt . baa opened with a rush, the entire plant running iilnht and dny. Negotiations lire about completed by the Racine Woolen mills, company for the- purchase of ''the Pendleton Woolen mills, which 'they will' ranks'" their western headquarters, expecting to employ 'JOO skilled' operatives In." eluding a. large clerical force. E. J. Murphy of Portland has pur chased several alfalfa crops, leased much land and will Install a 120,000 alfalfa meal plant at Echo. The Henrietta flouring mills at the same place are to be opened up and J-un tp full capacity. ' In Jus! the time 1t took a committee ' to call on 44 business men, $830 was subscribed to aid the Pendleton base ' ball tean. The list was headed by s-Hayor W. F. Matlock, owner of the Motel Pendleton building, In which saloon la located, who subscribed sn even f 100. Negotiations for the location of a broom factory at Pendleton are now under way, which heretofore was Im possible owing to the excessively high rents. It will (rente a home market for the excellent broom corn raised In the Athena and Freewater districts. The Pendleton Auto company has Just purchased a carload of auto for Umatilla county trade. The school board Is now having erected a new lr.;a fence to surround the high school block. The Freewater fruit cannery has opened f r the season' run and as soobj as the crops nmture will place full crew of workers on duty. 1 The surveys being made and rights 'of way secured for electric line from Milton In the eastern part of the coun ty, and Echo and llcrmtston In the 'western part of thu county, with Pen dleton as the terminus, have, not been discontinued., !'''. ' A few other Industries, now In em bryo, could be cited, but the above are sufficient for the purposes of (his article. - Put that Is not a'l. I: Immediately after the result of the election became known, a party of Pendleton's leading business men, started on a tour of the county to .solicit funds for the advertising of the entire county, and at every . stop were enthusiastically greeted and the first town or city Is yet to be heard from which will not subscribe lo the fund for a greater Umatilla. That the Indomitable "Pendleton spirit" which has characterised the forward march of that city and made ? the name Pendleton synonymous with all that goes to make a bilatllng city. Is grain manifesting Itself In this i'V trie as Its progressive business men have, met all other crises In the. past, ahuws the calibre of Its people' aof! and a display "of 'tortluido equalled In very few cither places having the lim ited rc.i'MD'cetf" Immediately surround ing thw city , and the keen competi tion with other 'cities, ''as Pendleton has with Walla. Walla, to hold"" her pres tige s a distributing point. , That her people believe and the people, of the entire county, for that matter that. In the words of another, they must ' "hang together or har.g separately." In manifest, and that they do not Jntend to hang separately Is a foregone conclusion. ; 'A better exemplification of the "Spirit of the Golden West" and of progress as exhibited by Pendleton Is foreign to a greater portion of the communities of the northwest. Tou simply can't make her lay down. " Whether this spirit Is worthy of emulation or not each reader can decide-tor himself. ,. ( ' . i i , eoe The recent conference of governors has brought out strikingly the fright ful waste of the country's natural re sources that Is going on In every dl- .TC?t'?.' 1 wnmwn uffeMptwt point to It as an object lesson on the need of granting a voice In public affairs to women, who are the economical sex Fifty years ego Theodore Parker said one reason why he favored woman suffrage was because few old women kept house so wasteful!? as chancel lors of the exchequer keep the state. e i ' OLD PEOPLE IIVKT. "GraiKlpa" and "Grandma" Matxon '. lluve TtuiutMsy. ' , Mr, and Mrs. Matson, known . to their friends as "grandpa" and "grand ma," who live up near Morgan lake, while' driving to town last Saturday, met with an accident which, while not very serious In Its. effects, might easily' have resulted In dlsaster. Whlla coming down the hill the team became frightened and ran away overturning the buggy, and spilling the old people jjut. Mr. Matson brave ly held onto the lines and stopped the team. Mrs. Mallory, a neighbor, com ing along . soon, took , the el derly lady Into hej rig and brought her on to the home of lie r son. Mat Matson.- The old folks were consider ably bidTSed. but no serious results of their adventure ase anticipated., ' ; Hurrnli for the Fourth. I A mass meeting will be held at the Commercial club parlors tomorrow evening to discuss measures for the proper celebration of Independence day In La Grande. It's time to be at work, for we shall have the beat cele bration ever held In eastern Oregon, and the more time and attention that Is given to the .arrangements, the bet ter It will be. Everybody Is Invited, and nearly everybody will be there. There la a considerable fund In the Fourth of July treasury now, and It Is time to add to It and spend the whole business. La Grande will cele brate, you bet! McCnll Like the Valley. C. M. McCall. who has been visit ing for several days with his cousin, Hugh Mct'all, of this city, left at night for1 his homo In Ferndale, Wn Mr. Mefall hns traveled all over the west and middle west, looking for ft location and hns decided that for beauty, and desirableness of climate. Grande Itonde beats them all. And, as soon as he can dispose of his prop erty In Ferndnle, he expects to return to Ld Grande to live.- Sullivan (ict One Tear. Tim Hiilllvan, . who last Saturday pleaded not guilty to the charge of sodoniy.'.todi'y changed his plea to guilty, and was sentenced by Judge t'rawford to serve one year In the pen llentlsry the lightest sentence, pos sible for the offense. IWiud Concert a Siskccmh. The concert given by the band Sat urday afternoon was a complete suc cess, and the cornet solo, by Prof. Hendricks Is worthy of especial men tion. Mr. Hendricks, as leader of the band. Is doing It a great service, and the boys deserve much credit for Iholr faithful attendance at practice, and for their enterprise generally. The number, 'Torto Rican Dance, was rendered In response to the special request of many enthusiastic admirers of the band. Dr. H. A. Ketrhum returned from Oordon creek this afternoon, where he preached Sunday. He especta to go to Nyasa next Sunday to organise ft Presbyterian' church with- If. intra- bars. .. : .L . ., it n :1 VKI pew j THE' CELEBRrTT Eft REMEMBER we aire Reducing Stock on NEW FURNITURE nd Selling out all Second Hand Goods at Cost.
