No book published in recent years has more of tremendous Import be tween its covers, and no book pub lished in recent years has in it more of tho elements of great and contin ued success. Three largo editions In two months, of a book which Is entire ly devoid of any elements of superfic ial popularity, aro the best evidence its appreciation of overy good point scored by Iho performers. The lead ing lady of tho company, advertised to appear In Pendleton, was not pres ent. Tho performance was very poor, tho parts wero carelessly acted and tho opera haggled and butchered un til It was scarcely recognizable. Tho failure of tho company to carry out Its agreement and Hvo up to Its advertised programs is sufficient grounds for a damage suit and the people of Pendleton heartily support that tho American people are only too glad to read of the stirring events that i tho claims of anager Welch flpiirprt In the conouest of the great Rose Cecilia Shay, advertised to xt.., t ..fPt, r rh wi" appear In the role or Leonoro was not reviews and comments, and It s tho tlcf Hrinii nr Mr. rws won- by substitutes almost throughout and tha nanniA whn wrlrtinecet tho 11T.cn n, pressed laughter on tho stage during what should havo been the climaxes derful book.

WAREHOUSE Explains the Need of a Change In Methods Pointed Observations on Municipal Conditions Thinks City Would Be Benefited by Giving the People Their Rights. Pondlcton, Or., Fob. 3. (To the Ed itor.) Much has been said about tho nronosed change ln tho city charter, nnd I hope I may be pardoned for asking for a small spaco as I seom to bo made the main issue. Our city nffairs havo been tried out ln the pub lic press from Spokano to Portland, but I resisted all attempts to be In terviewed. I havo tnken no part in tho present fight except to sign tho potttion. I bellovo lntho right of pe tition, nnd when tho wishes of the people aro oxprcssed through a peti tion they should have duo considera tion. I did favor changing tho chartor, making tho offlco of marshal and re corder appointive, but a year's trial has convinced mo that It Is not a succoss, as It has divided what might have been a useful council and noth ing has been accomplished and bitter charges havo been made , and not only has tho council been torn by dis sensions over this question, but tho people havo taken sides and It seems fair that the people should settle It. Tho present council Is composed of tho same men with one oxcoptlon, who composed It the two years previ ous and It is admitted that some good waB accomplished for tho town. I admit that as chairman of the po lice commltteo, somo tilts occurred between the marshal, mayor and my self, but it was settled and a compar ison is now asked between hto two administrations as to final results. It may not be out of place to call atten tion to the fact that open gambling ba3 been suppressed, but has gamb ling in tho town been suppressed? For tho past year the police com mittee has been Ignored. It seems fair to call attention to the elegant addition to Cottonwood row and also tho row of cribs which have made their appearance within the past year. It is also a fact that thoro nover wero so many dissolute women and the at tendant "macqucs" tho town as now infest it. This should not bo charged against the present marshal, as he is doubtless obeying orders, but I can not speak with authority, on this point, as not being allowed anything to say as chairman of the police com mltteo, I resigned. Tho old custom of leaving matters concerning the sovoral departments to committees Is disregarded in most in stances. Under our prosent charter tho may or can block the will ot the eight councllmen In the matter of appoint ments, by withholding his consent. A whole year has been wasted in fighting over a question tho peoplo would havo settled and I humbly apol ogize for my part ln it. Look at tho condition of the streets; see how the town Is overrun with pimps and hang ers on, the Commercial Association lias been drawn on for support, tak ing sides in a matter that will Injure its usefulness, and it might not bo out of placo to state that when tho lmnnriani . . taken, not w icti Its members couldhT mem. n , na Will Make Extve - (1PVMoen will havo tt, tZ' the MnDnnloi. rCS i purchase '"a 1 Boon M raffil will make Mt.u!.
