filed against them upon, a repetition of
me onense. -
This action Is to be the last step taken
by the authorities preceding the arrest
or a large numoer or Business men
who bare disregarded the warning sent
out by the street cleaning and police
departments. Inasmuch as there are a
large number of down-town gnerchants
who have been guilty of throwing store
sweepings Into the street where they lie
ell day and until 1st at night when the
street sweepers gather them up, en na
tional developments are expected to fol
low. -V ....'. J ..'
'l? Grass Cutters, loo.
Superintendent Donaldson stated yes
terday that hie patience was exhausted
and that he would waste no more time
notifying persona who have been throw
ins refuse into the street He said that
he had made a personal appeal to the
merchants to have their Janitors sweep
out their stores before midnight so it
could be gathered up when the sweepers
make their dally rounds. Instead of
complying with the request the stores
are swept out In the morning and the
sweepings are thrown into the streets
te He until the sweepers come around
again at midnight. ..
But it is not only the merchant and
property owners down town that Don
aldson Is after. He wants people living
in the residence districts to comply with
the law just as much a the business
men. The chief violation noticed in the
outlying district Is in regard to grass.
Residents have established a practice of
cutting their lawns and throwing-the
grass Into the street gutters. , (
Prosecutions to follow.
This is as much of a violation of the
law as the dumping of refuse and
sweepings, and Donaldson Intends that
It snail te stopped, iie saia mat witn
the small force allowed to his deoart-
ment the city cannot be. kept clean un
less the citizens aid mm in tno woric
He has appealed to their clvltr pride and
in every other way possiDie nas en
deavored to impress upon them the need
or keeping the streets clean, in many
cases he has been aided by the property
owners when their attention ha been
called to the matter, but others refuse
to do anything and seem content to al
low the streets to be littered in an un
seemly manner.- . .
Donaldson said yesterday that the
practice would have to stop and if. the
people do not cease throwing refuse into'
: the streets on their own volition he will
prosecute them.
- The Knights of Pythias this afternoon
unanimously chose- Pendleton - as the
next convention place of the grand
lodge at its annual meeting. The Pen
dleton delegation came down with the
expressed determination to get the next
convention, and they are well pleased
with the results of their canvass among
the delegates. .-The grand lodge had not
completed the adoption of the new con
stitution at 1:30 this afternoon, but be
fore the end of today's session It is ex
pected that this will have been done.
No opposition is being met with, and
the constitution. Is : being adopted sec
tion by section. .
The time of the grand lodge conven
tion of th' Knight of Pythias was
mostly occupied today with the adop
tion of the new charter, the old one
having been found inadequate to the
needs of the growing organisation. The
document is being taken up section by
section. As there are no radical
chen e-ea-advocated' there will probably
be little discussion and the constitution
will be accepted practically In toto.
This afternoon at 3 o'clock a com
petitive drill in third rank work will
be put on by teams from Salem.-Rainier
and Portland. A prise will be given
by the grand lodge to the winner of the
competition. .. .
.The Kntgnt or itnorassan. in i non
plan auxiliaries of the Pythian, will
give a banquet to the members this
evening at "6 o'clock at the Commercial
club. Following the spread 60 new
members will be initiated.
. At yesterday's session of the Grand
lodge. Knights of Pythias, after the rou
tine business which marked the open
ing had been transacted the election of
officer took' place. A proposition by
Judge H M. Cake to establish a home
for the aged and needy of the order
was made and a committee appointed to
look into the matter. A vote will. In
all probability, be taken on the subject
this afternoon, but it will probably not
meet with the favor of a majority of
th 4Uirata as It la annarentlv the
disposition of the fraternity to continue

Northern Pacific in a controversy with
ths conductor over a 15-cent fare, had
a Judgment In his favor for $8u0 dam

the permit was all that was necessary
and left the ticket on the station coun
