at
Fendleton Man Selected for
Federal Attorney Due in
Portland Today.
John McCourt. of Pendleton, who has
been cUoion by the Oregon delegation
In congress to succeed, W. C. Bristol m
United States attorney for Oregon, will
reach Portland today from Pendleton
for a visit of several day. . ,
While It not known what brings
Mr. McCourt to Portland at this time
It Is believed that he la comtng to ac
quaint himself with the conditions ur
oundlng tho district attorney's office
and to lookPover the field of what ap
pears to bo' his future dutlus.
No word has come from Washington
reicardlng the appointment of Mr. Mc
Court since the announcement was made
that the delegation had united on him
and sent his name to the president. It
"Is believed, however, that President
Koosevelt will send the name to the
senate tomorrow, or early In the week
ana that the senate will take immedi
ate action upon the recommenuauon.
It Is certain that as soon as Mr. Mc
Courfs nam Is sent to the senate.
Senator Fulton will urge that Immedi
ate action be taken and that the choice
of the delegation be confirmed and Mr.
McCourt allowed to assume charge of
the office In Portland. As Senator
Fulton Is the chairman of the Judiciary
Vcommlttee, which will have the matter
In hand once It la sent to the senate,
It would appear almost certain that the
confirmation of the Pendleton appointee
will follow close on the heels of the
nomination by the president

L. A. Klein, manager of the Portland
Gas company, says little encourage
ment la being received from east side
consumers relative to the establishment
of sub pay stations at different points
on the east side. A circular has been
sent out accompanied with a postal card
for reply purposes, but less than 100
replies had been received Saturday
afternoon. ,
"Should the stations be established,
said Mr. Klein, "It will be optional with
the east side patrons whother they pay
on that eld of the river or the west
side. The matter Is for their conveni
ence alone and It depends upon the east
side residents altogether whether the
step Is taken. Of course If the east
side consumers do not want these pay
stations on the east side We would be
foolish to go to the extra expense of
establishing thorn."
The business men In the different
nf tii tiLnt Hide are strongly I
urging the consumers of gus to reply j
to the courteous requesi ui mo n,
pany as It will be a means of retaining
much cash on the east sll It will
save In many instances trips to the
went side to pay bills.
The gas company expects to place
stations at several central points, .Sun
livside. Alblna and every place where
enough consumers wish it.
The step wi8 taken by the manngp
mmt of t lie conip.iny as the result
of a requet t by the Kast Bide Business

As n result of that movement started
hy the club the street railway company

ber of its employes tit Kast Morrison 1

side business men in retaining as lare
