A graduate of the Yale law school, and a man who carries in his pockets reccommendatlons signed by the gov ernor of Connecticut aid other prom inent men, this morning donned a pair of blue overalls and went to work shoveling dirt. "I must make a liv ing." he said, "and I'm going to do it right here in Pendleton." The young lawyer after graduating from the law department of the great Eastern university, practiced for two years In the courts of Connecticut. Then fire of the west stirred . his veins and he came toward the coast. In Colorado the young attorney se cured a position in a cyanide plant and for over a year was its superin tendent with a salary of J 150 per month. "But Colorado was not the West," he said, "and superintending a cyanide plant was not practicing law, and I came on to Oregon and finally, three weeks ago, to Pendleton. I have up until last night been in a local law of fice, but there is nothing in the prac tice of my profession here. "I saw my little bank roll slowly dwindling away and realized that it would be but a few weeks until I would be penniless. Yesterday I counted my savings and found I had a few dollars over $180. " 'I must find something to do,' I remarked to the attorney . In whose office I had desk room. "It doesn't make any difference to me what it Is.' " 'You may shovel dirt In my yard.' smiled my friend. "And I took him at his word. Then T drew my money from the bank and sent every cent of It back to my old home. If I'm to earn my living with a pick and shovel I intend to start like the rest who make their bread that way." With a merry whistle the former attorney picked up the shovel In his white, gloveless hands and began his first day's work. THE OCTOPUS WILL WIN. NORTHWEST NEWS. Mayor L. F.
