According to Mr. Blakeley he will make the race for representative in order to have a statement No. 1 man in the field against Mr. Mann, who pledged himself to vote for the peo ple's choice for senator on the condi tion that the "choice" Is a republican. The following pledge was made by Mr. Blakeley in a letter which he addressed to Will M. Peterson, demo cratic county chairman: Statement Number 1. "I further state to the people, of Oregon as well as to the people of my legislative district, that during my term of office I will always vote for that candidate for United States sena tor In congress who has received the highest number of the people's votes for that position at the general elec tion next preceding the election of a senator in congress without regard to my individual preference."

WirY MAIL IS LATE. Portland Letters Drought to This City by Way of Walla Walla Train. Repeated complaints are made to the Pendleton postoffice that letters which should have been received on the early morning train from Port land, are not distributed here until about noon and explanations are made dally concerning the matter. These letters which are distributed late are letters which were mailed In Portland after the departure of No. at 6 o'clock In the evening, but which were mailed In time to be sent out on No. 4, the Spokane flyer, which leaves Portland at 8:15 p. m. These letters are brought to Walla Walla on the Spokane flyer and are sent' from that place to Pendleton on the morning passenger train leaving here at 15:45. This mall is immedi ately distributed and is therefore found In the boxes about 11:30 or 12 o'clock. It is supposed by many patrons of the office that the mall was received on the early morning train and that the office force had been slow In dis tributing It, but such is not the case and the East Oregonian Is glad to make this explanation for the post office. If this mall was not sent out of Portland on the Spokane flyer and returned to this city by way of Walla Walla, arriving here at 10:45, l: would be held until No. 2 left Port land and would not reach this city until 4:40'p. m- Bv "ending it on the Ppokane train it is able to reach Pen dleton about five hours earlier than it would, were it held until the reg ular east-bound train, No. 2.

Phone Main) 155 Good SuceeB in Selecting Winning Team One Man Dropped for Dninkennttw New Player at Short Stop in Game With Soldiers Sunday ICayiio Series Opens Next Thurs day With Pendleton at Walla Walla. E. K. Lorlmer. manager of the ball I team is now busy securing subscrip tions to complete the financing of the league team and thus far has been meeting with good success. "I do not think we will have much trouble in raising the money needed," said Lorlmer this morning, "for we have shown that we have a strong team and the expense of maintaining It In the Jeague will be but little great er than at present." Since he has had the management of the team Lorimer has devoted his lime conscientiously to the work and he has had a wonderful success In picking his men. This has been due to the fact that good players have been anxious to enlist with him and to the further fact that he has never hesitated to cut out a man whom he considered weak or unfit. An example of this Is shown in the case of Lee, the short stop during the past few weeks. Though a good play er Lee has shown too much "booze fighting" propensities and he Is now off the team. In the game with the Walla Walla soldiers to be played here Sunday, a new man. Dean", sent here by "Bobby" Brown of Aberdeen, will play short. In entering the league Lorlmer has gone In to win and his first considera tion will be to have h's team "make good" upon the Impnrtat polt of win ning games. If he can continue the succes that ho has ulready had there Is little doubt but that at the en'd of the lenuue series the banner of vic tory will float over the Pendleton team. To ensure 'the success of the league movement Lorlmer Is putting up con siderable hard cash hmself and the fact that he Is sufficiently Interested to do so Is making friends for him self and the team. The next game will be played here with the Walla Walla soldiers and Pendleton will open the league series with Walla Walla, the game to be player there If present plans are not changed. YOUR.
