CITIZENS OF FREEWATER
TO AIR THEIR GRIEVANCES.
Six Prominent Citizens Want to Be
Cut Out of the Corporation The
Outcome of Appointing Vincent at
Postmaster. .
A merry war Is being waged in
Kreewater between six of the promi
nent citizens of the town who want
to be cut oft from tho town and the
rest of the city population.
A. S. Pearson and several of the
prominent citizens ot ihe t-wii, in
cluding tho member-, of the city coun
cil, are here today conferring with
Representatives of the county who
nro going tp Salem In regard to the
matter.
The affair is a peculiar one, and it
is thought It grew out of a factional
fight over the postoffice. There were
two candidates In the field anxious to
succeed former Postmaster Janes,
who resigned on account of his
health. These candidates were J. W.
Arnold and N. M. Mumford. Each
wanted the office badly and each had
a lengthy petition signed by their
friends and sent to Congressman
Malcolm A. Moody.
The matter became perplexing to
Mr. Moody, as he did not care to have
1 appear" that he was sidelng with
either man in preference to the other,
This being the case and' the seutl
nient being so evenly divided, he con
cluded that he would appoint a man
not in the field for the office. As a
leault, J. S. Vincent was notified of
his appointment This caused some
bitter feeling over the matter and the
result was that six of the prominent
citizens and property holders in the
heart of .the city want their nronertv
cuC loose fro mthe town.
These men were N. M. Mumford.
William Lloyd, Ira Bunker, Joseph
Irons and William Shaffer. These
men came to Pendleton and employ
ed A. D. Stillman as their attorney
who will go before the state legisla
ture and make a strenuous fight for
the division.
The opposition to the division of
the town are just as determined as
the six men who wish to be out of
the Incorporate limits. They are
holding a conference with the repre
sentatives and senators f rom this
county and are layine their nrotests
before them with the view of defeat
ing the division plan. They have em
ployed uoionel J. H. Ralev ns their
attorney and representative to fight
xneir Dawes In the legislature and a
vigorous protest will be made.
That the city authorities are deter
mined toee that the city Incorpora
tion lines are not changed Is evident
ed by their actions. At the last
meeting of the council a resolution
was passed that the city would spend
every dollar In the treasury to defeat
the division scheme.
The men who want to be cut out of
the Incorporate limits represent eight
acres of land "almost in the heart of
the town and to cut this out would
leave the corporate lines of the town
in a very awkward shape.
A. compromise has been offered by
the divlslonlsts but the opposition
nave refused to accept. This com
promise embodies an offer that if the
citizens will allow those wishing to
cut loose from the town to do so.
they will make the railroad the line
between Milton and Freewater. This
is what Freewater has wished for sev
eral years, but the citizens are not
willing to compromise on such terms

FRANKLIN BOUND OVER.
Is an Old Offender ana the Federal
Court Will Attend to His Case.
O. R. Franklin, the man arrested a
few days ago for selling liquor to In
dians, and who gave United Stntes
Deputy Marshal Roberts the slip and
was caught by R. S. Bryson, was
bound over in $500 bonds Thursday
afternoon by United Slates Commis
sioner John Hailey.
Franklin is an old offender. He is
thought to have been responsible for
a great many ot the drunken Indians
who have been bothering the town
for the past few weeks. He has just
finished serving a 90-day sentence In
the county jail for the same crime,
and It Is likely that tho federal court
will not handle him with so much
care this time.

A Somnambulist.
An interesting feat lu somnambu
lism was lecently performed by one
of Ontario's citizens. A prominent
young lady of that city had Just com
pleted the knitting of a very fine
shawl, but on arising the next morn
ing found sho had arisen in her sleep
during the night and unravelled the
entire shawl, and carefully rolled up
the yarn and placed It away. She
had broken the thread once but found
it again and completed the work as
carefully as if awake. Sho Is now
making it over again, but will proba
bly keep It under lock and key until
completed, with the key in atlothnr'
possession.
At an inquest on a case of suicide
lecently held in England, the fore
man returned this remarkable ver
dict: "The Jury are all of one mind
temporarily insane." Law Notes.
