Mayor Hailey’s Address. Mayor Hailey then spoke for a tew moments on behalf of the city of Pendleton. He said in part: "I have, in the years of my resi dence in this city, seen many build ings erected here, and each one add ed to the list has been a sour<-e of joy to me. It has pleased me when the school houses have been started, and I hop«> that they will still be here for th«« use of the childreu of our child ren. I have seen the houses of wor ship spring up around me, and it has been good to see them: first small and feeble tn their membership, but grad ually growing until they are a power in the city and the state. All these are the steps in the progress of the community in which we live. “But the grandest achievement of all is Lie tounding anu the building of the institution which has been ded icated today. It is the crowning step in the development that has been going on. and is the one which we owe to those who have preceded us and have done their all for the bet terment of the country. "The Son of Man came not to save the sin-sick alone, but to heal tne sick, the lame, the halt and the blind and the church is the exponent of the teachings of the Master. Next to the church there is nothing more gran«, than these institutions where the ill are car»d for. the maimid are healed and the sufferings of mankind are le.isenel and scothed. "Her«-tofore. when the people of the city were*sick they were taken to a di» ant place at great < xpenae and suffering, and the esta illshment of thia hospital means much to the peo ple of the county and ot all the sur rounding country. Now. when our loved ones are s'ck and have to have the care that can only be given In a hospital. It will not be neeu.ul for us to send them to a distant city, away from those who are anxious for their welfare, it will not be necessary to separate the motuer from the aoa. and one loved one from the other, but in that dark hour, if it should come, the dear sufferer may have the pres ence of those dear to him There need be no more the strain of heart-strings caused by enforced absence from the bedside of a loved one. for we can help in nursing .ae sufferer back to life "I am glad Liat the bishop and the Cuveruor are here to help us today In this celebration, for it means much, not only to the city of Pendleton, not not only to Umatilla county, but to the state as well. And I want to congrat ulate the Sisters of 8t Francis on the cousummation of tneir plans and to je-..pesk for them the same support and sympathy from the city of P«*n- dhton that they have enjoyed In the past, and which they deserve for The future '• I Do the Mormons rule this county, lolltlcally and otherwise?” asked a nomeseeker of the La Grande Chron icle. Wliut «Io you mean, and wbut la the basis of the qu«*slhiti?" Inquires the Chronicle. We have been informed that the Monuont compose u large majority ol the voters of Grande Konae valley, and that they elect the officers of the county, control the politics of the county, and that polygamy ia carrier on in the couuty in open violatlou ot the law." continued the spok«*sman of a number of newcomers. "We have also learned that they are building a second tabernacle at La Grande, and that this county will soon be turned into a second Utah of the old time kind,” remarked an other member of the party. The Chronicle was dumbfoundeu It had never heard such charges be fore It did not suspect that anyone would circulate such reports. The Chronicle has been published in I.a Grande for nearly a quarter of a cen tury, has watched the interests of Union county with a jealous eye and has never seen anything ominous in I the influx into the county of a large number ot citizens who believe in the Mormon religion. It Informed the homeseekers that there were a large number of Mor xous in the county; that they were intelligent, hard working and law abiding people, who looked after tl.eir ! own interests and seemed to stay out of politics. They vote, of course, but are not clanirh. They have as many different opr lions as other people xbcut who o< ght to be elected, ar.d Mo'monum his never been raised in the elections < f Union county. The people are a hard working ■ lais; they pty their debts, believe a living witn n the law. and are sel dom iound in the courts. The Chron icle knows nc sect in its ideas of re- ilgian and wo old not condemn or ap- pla id one above the other; but. as a matter ot justice to the Mormon peo ple. as they are called, would speak ot them In the highest terms, so tar as they have conducted themselves in this county. All of these things the Chronicle ezplained to the home seekers. it may be announo-d once ___ __ and _____ for a!) that there Is no reason to appre hend any danger from the Mormons n Union county.
