WASHINGTON, July 12. The day
light saving law was rescued from re
peal today by President Wilson's veto
of the agricultural appropriation bill.
The President also vetoed the sun
dry civil appropriation bill, because he

the work of rehabilitating and rcjior

The latter veto apparently was ac

The veto of the daylight saving w.is

prevailing opinoin was that a neces

OLCOn DINNER
WHO ItLUNDEBED AND BALLED
THINGS, IS Tilt QUESTION.
Secretary Nclsea Says It's Up to Paul
Spill-ana to Explain the
Situatiea.
Who, oh who was it that so flag
rantly violated the confidence of La
Grande people and caused them to
gather around Billy Vogel's festal
board in banquet form?
Who was it that announced the com
ing of Governor Olcott on a tour of
experimental farm inspection, which
announcement caused local politicians
to prick up their ears and when ban
quet seats were announced, caused
them to dig deeply into their pockets
and put up the price of a plate so they
"could meet Ben and have a talk with
him."
Oh, yes, the stage was set in such a
way that Governor Olcott could have
had a most delightful time for half a
day discussing state questions, and he
might havo been able to dispense a
little patronage possibly to fill tho
place vacated by Harvey Wells, or the
one that will be vacated by Carl
Shoemaker, maybe.
Friday's Observer told of the com
ing of the Governor and party which
included several ladies. Immediately
La Grande ladios responded to duty's
call and arranged a fine dinner at the
Summer hotel for Mrs. Olcott and oth
er lady members of the party, while
the men were to banquet at the Foley.
Fine. Everything was running in full
t me each of the twelve cylinders was
hitting. And then it was stated that
bad roods had caused slight delay to
the governor's automobile party this
side of I'enuleton, for they were jour
neying overland and -would arrive in
due time, possibly a little late.
The hour had arrived for the feed
The Foley lobby was filled with citi
zens waiting far then' governor, but
no governor came. Finally as the
noon hour slipped past, Ed Coolidge,
who was the master of ceremonies,
suggested the party adjourn to the
banquet room. This was done and
after a reasonable wait, it was de
cided U leisurely proceed with the din
ner. Mr. Coolidge called on first one
citizen and then another to while
awny the timo until the governor
should appear.
When the "coffee, nuts and cigars"
line on the menu had becnreached, an

The effect of the proposed consoli
