That insurance rates In Pendleton
will not be lowered because of the
extensive new electric wiring ordered
by the underwriters' association a few
weeks rco Is practically assured, and
that rates may be raised because of
the failure of a few property owners
to rewire as requested. Is also a pos
siblllty.
Lot Llvtrmore, one of the pioneer
Insurance men of the city, has Just
received word from a number of
agents for fire Insurance companies
represented by him, and they assure
him that unless the rewiring Is done
as requested that rates In Pendleton
will be n ivaneed.
Since the order to rewire Pendle
ton business houses was sent out the
electricians have been busy almost
night and day and property owners
had hoped that when the orders of
the underwriters' association had
been complied with and the risk in
Pendleton reduced greatly by the new
wiring, that the fire Insurance rate
would be preceptibly lowered, but the
Information given to Mr. Livermore
seems to dispel any such hope and
the same old rates, with a possible
advance, will be charged here.
There is widespread complaint of
the action of the underwriters 'asso
ciation In ordering a wholesale rewir
ing of Pendleton and other northwest
business houses, when many of these
houses were already equipped with
modern electric wiring and other ap
pliances, and now that no reduction
of the fire Insurance rate Is to fol
low the rewiring and reduced fire
risks this complaint is exceedingly
bitter.
Property owners feel that they have
been Imposed upon by the Insurance
trust and there Is strong talk of
forming a mutual association among
local business men and property own
ers to carry the Insurance of the city
It will cost practically $5000 to re
wire all the buildings of this city
which come under the ban of the in
surance trust, and now that no bene
fits in lowered rates are to com
from this heavy outlay, property own
ers are Justly Indignant.
Another feature of the matter
that where one building In a block
not rewired, although all the remain
lng buildings may be rewired, the
rates will be raised on all the build
ings in the block, regardless of the
heavy expense of those who may
have complied with the request of the
underwriters' association.
The work of rewiring Pendleton
buildings has been In progress for
It had been
hoped by property owners that the
present excessive fire Insurance rates
would be reduced, owing to the
greatly reduced risks.

"I suffered three years with Weep

dollars and went to every good doctor
I heurd of, but kept getting worse.
Nothing would stop the awful Itch

"I had to stay in bed from the mid

Then I tried D. D. D. Prescription.
This Is the 9th of December and I am

terrible. My husband was the only
one who v'ould, take care of me. D.
D. D. stopped the Itch at once so I
could sleep, which I had not done

St.
Dcnnls-IIarras Case Once More In
the Courts.
Relnhold Harras was on the stand
In the circuit court this morning in
the case brought against him by De
sire St. Dennis and on cross-examlna
tlon he was asked some embarrass
ing questions by Will M. Peterson,
the leading attorney for St. Dennis.
"Did you not while In a converse
tlon with James Bell at Athena, say
as follows: 'You have a lease on St
Dennis' place for two years and I
have one for 10 years; don't pay him
any more rent and we will beat him
out of It?' " was one of the queries,
inls question Harras was not re
quired to answer, but talking "Into
the record" he denied he had made
such a statement.
Other pertinent questions nsked
Harras related to his ability as i
fighter and to the particular amount
of booze he had supplied St. Dennis
with.
On his direct examination Harras
said he had gone to the St. Dennis
place after having leased It and that
St. Dennis had run him off by telling
him that he would kill him If he tried
to take possession.
The st. Dennls-Harras case was
started yesterday, but much of the
day was lost while a couple of di
vorce suits were being tried. At the
outset of the case the plaintlf's attor
neys moved to withdraw their com
plaint and by so doing they placed
the burden of proof upon the Harras
side of the case.
Harras Is represented In .court by
D. W. Bailey and J. D. Perry, while
St. Dennis' case Is handled by Will
M. Peterson and Lowell & Winter.
