Sandyites Attend
Pendleton Roundup
. SANDY. Sept. 26 A lot of Sandy
folks climbed down to eat a bean at
Pendleton last week for the biggest
epic show of the whole U. S. was on.
That something which is named the
"spirit of the west" filled the air
until 'most everybody wished they
could ride a bucking cayuse, or at
least play clown while the cow boys
bull-dogged wild steers from Texas
ranges.
But the Round Up is not a rough
neck show as a lot of us folk who had
never been there, thought. Really
it was as moral as a Portland Rose
show in June, so far as we could see.
35,000 people in the . bleachers, all
thrilling at once and hoping that not
even a wild steer would be hurt. The
sight of this vast crowd with all the
colors of the rainbow, and then some,
glimmering in the vast semi-circle,
paid for the price of admission.
Pendleton, that little grown-up city,
is trying to portray the same pioneer
spirit that blazed the old Oregon trail
- right through our little town of Sandy
and on to Oregon City which was
- the mecca for Oregon pioneers before
Pendleton "was." or an Oregon cow
puncher existed. And Pendleton busi
ness men manage this great affair
without salary.
Every foot in Sandy will be "itch
ing" to step over next year and "eat
another bean" with the hospitable peo
ple of Round Up fame.

after a loss of about $10,000 was in
curred. Two bridges were burned,
the cables were brought in from the
woods so were not damaged, but had
to be moved out again and various re

for three or four days.

CHICAGO, 111-, Sept., 23. Judge
James H. Wilkerson today granted
Attorney General Daughertys petition
for a nationwide temporary Injunction
the striking railway shopmen.,
. Judge Wilkerson, in a lengthy re
view of the case, said the defendants
could not deny knowledge and respon
sibility for the widespread violence
which has marked the strike. Partial
settlement of the strike, he held, has
not affected the right of the govern
ment to obtain.a nation wide injunc
tio. -
The court gave attorneys for the
defense until Monday, morning at 10
o'clock to study the decision and pre
pare to argue the texts of the injunc
tion order which wi be signed.
Attorney General" Daugherty on
Thursday presented the government's
proposed draft, which is even more
drastic than the restraining 'order now
in force. .
The order will affect about 270 offi
cers and 400,000 members of the six
crafts belonging to the railway em-,

Affair at Milwaukie Thought
Work of Fire Bug; New
Developments Pointing o
"Set" Flames Are Found.
TWO SIMULTANEOUS
BLAZES ARE PUT OUT
Caretaker Of Building Is
Credited With Saving of
Structure; Damage Light.
- Has the fire bug who has been op
erating in Oregon City extended the
field of his activities to the surround
ing country?
Information that a' small fire in the
Milwaukie high school last Friday
was unquestionably of incendiary or
igin, has leadto the belief that the
blazes might have had the same
cause as the numerous incendiary
fires which have taken place in Ore
gon City recently.
The fires started late in the after
noon when the school was empty, and
were extinguished by -O. H. Hadden,
caretaker of the building. Because no
serious damage was done, little im
portance was attached to the blazes,
Hadden, however, states ' that there
were two fires, started in different
parts of the building, which occurred
at the same time. Both of the blazes
are said to have started in places
where there was comparatively little
chance of a blaze from natural causes.
This, so far as is known, is the
first evidence of an incendiary fire in
an out of town district in this vicinity.
The cause however, of the recent fire
at Parkplace, has not been definitely
established, although the possibilities
there for a fire of natural origin, are
greater in the case at the Milwaukie
school.
