Nearly All Face a Vagrancy
Charge at the Ilcgumlng.
With the large number of loose
men In town, some genuine workmen
and some vags, it Is dally a problem
with the polloe and city recorder to
separate the good from the turns and
Invite the latter to leave.
In police court this mrnlng a
bunch of eight was brought before
Judge Fits Gerald, and of this number
five were charged with vagrancy.
They had been picked up by the offi
cers last evening, attention being at
tracted to them through the peculiar
lodging places which they occupied.
' In police court each man wns re
quired to explain his presence in the
city and something concerning his fi
nancial stnnding. One man, the best
appearing of the bunch, possessed a
telegram which showed he was wait
ing for money, which had been mailed
him. He was allowed to go at once.
Others gave reasons that were not as
valid. Robert Jackson, colored, said
he had tried in vain to get a room
but had been refused, on account of
his color, he thought. But he was
told by Judge Fitz Gerald that the
color line was not closely drawn in
Pendleton, and that he couli hare
gotten a room. In his case and two
others sentc ice was suspended for
two hours, that length of time belm;
allowed for their departure from
town.
Fred Hnnlg, the fifth man charg
ed with vagrancy, was also accused
of having stolen another man's hat,
and In his rase a three (Jays' Jail sen
tence was Imposed.
Other prisoners were Fred Thomp
son. Henry Cook and Albert Flsh
mai . all being the usual sentences
for being drunk.

De Moved From Walln Walla.
The Walls Walla Union says regard
ing the threatened removal of the
Gilbert Hunt foundry from that city:
The Gilbert Hunt company, the
largest manufacturing establishment
In Wa!la Walla, and the largest man
ufacturers of threshing machines In
the northwest, are considering the
proposition of removing from Walla
Walla to some larger city In the north
west where terminal freight rates are
more favorable.
Gilbert Hunt, president of the corn
pan;', yesterday. In an Interview, said
that the company had already re
ceived Feveral very flattering offers
from a number of the larger cities.
Should this step be taken it will
mean the removal from the city of
one of the largest payrolls, a 'thing
which Walla Walla can ill afford to
lose at any stage In her history, es
pecially at the present time.

New Road From Meaollflnt Will Tap
Fine Timber Belt.
It is said that the new railroad
no-w being built from Meacham by the
0. R. 4 N. company for the Grand
Ronfle Lumber company, will pene
trate one" Pf the finest bodies of pine
and tamarnck timber left on the Blus
mountain!.
The road will be built In a norther
ly direction from Meacham at first,
rwid as the timber is cut out It will
be, run, northwest of. that place toward
Iho hoad of North FtH rrfek and
along the summit of the mountain.
The country Is comparatively smooth
and the grade will be easily constructed.
It will afford much cheaper fuel
fnr Pendleton and Walla Walla, when
It once Is opened up. Thousands of
cnnls "1 excellent wood will be cut
alune the new line and aside from this
the ere.im of the timber will be sawed
into lumber at Meacham. Most of
the lumber will b shipped eastward
on detracts already held by the
Grand Itonde Lumber company at
Perry and the new lumber supply will
perhaps not affect the local market

Two Petitions PrcNcntctl Which DIs
close Tlmt the Pvople Are Not Sat
isfied With the Policy of the Coun
ty Court Ono Phut Is to Have a
410-Foot Gravel Fill With a Kip
ltap Face One IVtlllon Is From
Echo, the Other From tin) Vicinity
Joseph Cunlut Will Donate $300.
That the people of Echo and vicin
ity are becoming anxious to have
their bridge repaired and dislike the
present plans of the county court, is
evidenced by two petitions which were
tendered County Judge Gllliland this
morning.
In the petitions the court is asked
to abandon its plans for temporary
repairs on the bridge and to have the
410 feet of trestle work on the west
end of the bridge replaced by a gravel
fill bunked with rip-rap. In that way
only, they contend, cun the river be
returned to Its original channel under!
tne main span of the bridge and kept
from washing Into valuable land on
the west side. During the flood the
river tore away a portion of the tres
tle work and Is now running through
there Instead of under the bridge.
In the petition the court is usked to
also construct an addition 100-foot
span on the west end of the bridge.
However, they are not insistent about
this and would be glad to have the
III! made and watt longer for the
new span.
The petitions were brought up
from Echo this morning by Dr. F. M.
Ackley. One paper is signed by resi
dents of Echo and the other by par
ties living in the surrounding country.
As the county commissioners will
meet again on Saturday the petitions
will be passed upon at that time. Since
the flood the court has been In a
quandary what to do with the Echo
bridge and was intending to make
some temporary repairs while decid
ing what permanent improvements
should be made.
Joseph Cunha owns some land
which Is being damaged by the river
as it now runs, and he has offered to
donate J500 toward paying for the
change. The proposed filling and
rip-rap work will cost several thous
and dollars.

That many of the school districts
do not properly appreciate the change
which they now have of securing
school libraries without expense to
them is shown by the failure of many
to recommend anyone for district li
brarian. Out of the 105 districts In
the county only 33 have recommended
librarians though all were communi
cated with by Superintendent Welles.
Under the law the county superinten
dent appoints the librarians, and In
order to secure satisfactory persons
for the positions Superintendent
Welles asked that the various boards
make recommendations.
In some Instances the clerks wrote
that the books were not desired, and
that the directors had decided not to
take advantage of the law. However,
the law prescribes that each district
shall be given its share of books, and
that a librarian be named. Conse
quently the same will be done regard
less of the apathy of the directors.
While the lack of Interest in ti.e li
brary scheme Is deplored, it Is hoped
that after the syst m ha? once been
tried the libraries will become popu
lar and hereafter districts wlll4 be
more eager to secure them. The
books are purchased by a tax Imposed
by the county court of 10 cents per
capita, for each child enrolled In the
county.
The following are the librarians so
far recommended, and who will be
appointed by Superintendent Welles:
District 1, Ruth Rdyer; district 5,
Beatrice lirowilell; district 10, F. W.
Neasley; district 17, Dean Gerklrig;
