present. In a way. for then tho peo-
plo uf the city all wuro striving to
make their fortunes by the enlarg
nient and upbuilding of tho city and
lu the nuiist of this high stage of
activity the Pendleton Commercial
Association had Its birth.
The association was formed by the
chief men of the town and Its pur
pose was to foster the best interests
of the city and the state. At Its
meetings, problems tending to up
build the city and bencllt tho inhabi
tants of Pendleton and the county
were discussed and most of the in
novations In tho government of tho
city and the county and most of tho
.mprovements In and around hero
can bo traced to the door of nils or
organization.
ilio tlrst meeting of tho assocla-
ff un was neiti in tne rooms that it
n now occupies, and at that meeting
-M.'Jl of the nrinrlnnl Imslnosisi mwt nr...
fessional men of tho city wore pres
ent. Plans of organization were dis
cussed and tho constitution and by
laws were drawn up and signed by
those who had attended tho first
meeting.
Tho charter members of tho club
were: T. F. Hourke, T. C. Taylor, It.
H. lieatlc, Leon Cohen, Jesse Fail
ing, j. II. Hoblnson, C. S. Jackson,
J. V. Tallman, It. Alexander, T. Hoth

F. F. Wamsley, It, G. Thompson (J.
A. Hartnian, George Ash, H. E. nick
ers, W. P. Lathrop, J. A. Ilorio and
W. II. Carmine.
One of tho first things that the now
association took under their care was
the question of tho county roads. At
mat time tho roads of tho countv
were either not on the map or they
were in such a condition as to shut
tho city off from tho surrounding
country uuring the winter months,
and tho association undertook to bet
ter the matter. A committee con
sisting of s. P. Sturgis, James A.
Fee and C. S. Jackson was appointed
and they surveyed tho present coun
ty roads leading to Adams and Long
Creek and having made tho survey,
carried tho project through until tho
roads wero opened.
Another thing that tho association
did was to appoint a committee which
went over the books of tho county of
ficials and compiled data showing tho
vast waste to the tax-payers from tho
old fee system. Through tho exer
tions of this committee and tho as
sociation tho matter was taken bo
fore the legislature and tho present
law was passed, abolishing the old
plan for the now.
Most of the business enterprises of
the city were brought hero as the
result of the association, though it
did not interest Itself primarily in
such ventures. It confined Its atten
tion more strictly to tho larger mat
ters that wero for the good of the
people of tho county and through
them to tho city.
Those parts of tho city and county
government wnicii wore out of ad
Justmont and needed repairs, those
public projects which wero for tho
good of the community at largo wero

tlon and effort of tho association and
