Spoke to a Large Audience Yester day Afternoon at the Christian Church High School Present in a Body. A large audience greeted Charles A. Hanford at the Christian church yesterday afternoon to hear his dis course upon the Shakespearean plays and selections from the same. It was a very deeply Interested and ap preciative audience from the start until the close.

The result of the bond election yes terday was 135 votes against the proposition and 82 for. Three ballots were discarded on accouut of being defective. The very light vote indicates either complete apathy on the part of the voters, or else that a very large pro portion of them could not make, up their minds In the conflict of opin ions and refused to participate in the election at all. It Is very prob able that this Is the potent cxplana tlon of the light vote. There are many surmises as to what will or will not be doce ir the premises. One plan proposed is for n proposition to be submitted pro viding for more school buildings and more widely distributed than provld ed for by any scheme yet proposed There Is no particular evidence that tho "defect" of not having more buildings provided for by the propo sition submitted yesterday was what defeated the bonds, as the light vote does not indicate that any large pro portion of the vote against the propo rtion was sectional. If it had been the vote against might have been much larger. Still, the advocates expansion must know that a different ly framed proposition must be sub mitted that will have any show for carrying. The tendency to maintain the exist ing condition for the coming year is very strong, and unless expansion is forced upon the district by the con demnation of some of the present school quarters. It is very probabl that there will not 'be any new build ings the coming year. At the elec tion yesterday the Judges were W. D. THEBOND QUESTION Hansford and J. S. Dupuls, clerk was H. E.

TAXPAYERS DISSATISFIED WITH PLAN PROPOSED, E. T. Wade Thinks That a School House Should be Built in the West End of Town, Either on the North or South Side of the Umatilla. Pendleton, Ore., April 21. (Editor East Oreconlan.) The outcome of the school bond vote will undoubted ly necessitate a reconsideration of the Question In the near future. I do not believe that the vote registered ex nressed a general opposition to taxa tion for the purpose of Increasing our school accomodations, but that it was rather a result of dissatisfaction with the plan proposed. That there Is need of more room Is unquestioned, but the matter of a lo cation seems to be the point of con flicting opinions. I have long held the opinion that there Is need of a school building In the west end of the city. To even a casual observer If must be evident that the main growth of the city for the past few years and at present has been in the west pnrt of town on both sides of tho river. Hundreds of children re side In this section and now walk a mile and a half to school on the hill and would have a greater distance if the school should be built on the old academy grounds. Taxation without satisfactory rep resentation was offered to this sec tion in the last plan; why not build a school house In the west end of town, either on the north or south side of the river, sufficiently large to accommodate the growing schol pop ulation of that section? It will give them easy access to their school and will tend to keep them off the busi ness streets. A bridge over the river in the vicinity of the school building would, of course, be necessary; It is a crying need under any circum stances, and should easily be forthcoming. Thnt tho present population of the North Side demands that a school house be built there, I do not believe, but I do assert that a school house situated to accommodate all the school children on both sides of the river in the west end is necessary and should be provided. I believe that a $32,220 bond equal ly divided between the east and west ends of the city would pass without a dissenting vote. I do not believe In rushing into print .but do so this once to express my opinion in which I have consider able support. As I have hod noth ing to say in the past, I will have nothing to say In the future. E. T. WADE. CHILDREN -..OWNED. Boat Capsizes in Snake River Near Ballard's Landing Three Men Rescued.
