MASS MEETING FOR
NEXT TUESDAY
COMMISSION PLAN MEETING
PROVED DRAW FIGHT
After Much Wrangling Last Night's
Gathering Decided for a Further
Meeting and Discussion Next Sleet
ing at City Hall.'
After two hours of discussion in
which the merits and demerits of the
commission form of government were
not extensively debated the meeting
held at the Commercial club rooms
last evening resulted in a drawn fight
between those who favor the com
mission plan and those who oppose
the same for Pendleton. As a result
of action finally taken it was decided
to hold another mass meeting at the
city hall on next Tuesday evening to
further discuss the subject.

mass meeting instead and by acclama.
tion President Smythe and Secretary
Keefe were continued as chairman and
secretary respectively.
Lowell Presents Subject.
As on the previous occasion when
the commission plan of government
was broached Judge S. A. Lowell took
the lead in advocating its adoption.
He moved that a committee of seven
be named by the chairman to draft a
commission charter and the motion
was seconded by E. B. Aldrich.
In an informal talk Judge Lowell
went at some length into the subject
of commission government and ex
plained the essential points about the
plan and the chief merits of the re
form. He held that1 the commission
plan fixes responsibility, provides for
proper remuneration for officials and
in a general way is a remedy for evils
resulting from the old system of city
government.
R. Alexander opposed taking up the
subject at that time and Insisted that
a subsequent meeting should be held
at which a ereater attendance could
j be secured.
John Vert also spoke in opposition
to the commission form of govern
ment and moved to indefinitely post
pone the motion for the appointment
of a committee. This brought forth
a sharp objection from Leon Cohen
who said it was no time for an attempt
at sharp practices. The amendment
was voted down as -was also a motion
of Mr. Alexander that the meeting ad
journ to meet again at the court
j house one week later. This motion
was later changed to call for a meet
ing at the city hall next Tuesday eve
ning and it carried.
As matters now stand the subject
will be a special order of business at
a mass meeting to be held Tuesday
evening, Sept. 26. -
Officials Oppose It.
Prominent among those who were
present in opposition to the commls-
j sion form were Mayor Murphy and
several of the councilmen. Messrs.
Murphy, .Stroble and Strain took po
sitions against the new plan and
Councilman Montgomery announced
that he had changed his views and
stood opposed.
Soon Ready for Travel.
Workmen are now busy construct
ing the approaches to the new Main
street bridge and It will be but a short
time until wagon traffic may be re
sumed across the river at that point.
The foot walk on the west side of
the bridge is also completed and as
soon as the concrete has set It will
be opened to the pedestrians.
Druggists to Close Earlier.
By an agreement between the pro
prieors of the different drug stores in
the citv. they will hereafter close
places of business at 6:30 every even
ing except Saturday evening when
they remain open until 9 o'clock. They
also adopted new hours for Sunday
and will hereafter keep open on that
day from 9 until 12 in the morning
and from 4 until 6 in the afternoon.
has over six hundred members, and
they are earnest, and are doing
things.' Why can not Pendleton have
five hundred members Surely the
citizenship of Pendleion Is as interest
ed in municipal affairs and questions
of import as that of other cities.
The social features are coordinated
with the business features and alone
are well worth the dues. The ex
penses to the Individual member are
so small as to seem Inadequate to the
maintenance. However, with a
large membership, the expense is no
more t-n with a smaller one, but the
extra membership precludes the pos
sibility of draining the resources of
a few men. One dollar a month to
the individual member Is surely a
small sum, and few tnere are who are
preventM from joining because of
this reason.
Oct in, every member, and bring in
the application of at least one other
citizen of Pendleton Consider this a
matter of your individual attention,
do your share, and me sum will be
large. Let us beat every city of our
size in the west, and prove ourselves
"The Biggest City of Its Size in the
West." Let every citizen be ready to
sign an application, business and pro
fessional men, and let us not shirk
our opportunity of each doing his
share for Pendleton, Umatilla county
and Oregon.
J. E. KEEFE, Sec.

be made tonight and that work will

The jury at the courthouse today Is

resenting the former and Col. J. H.
Raley the defendant. From the tes
timony it seems that Winzler pur

case involves a settlement for this
