Tray Next Friday.
What ho! Let trumpets sound and
bells ring out their chimes. Tidings
of exceeding gladness have been an
nounced and the nerves of the sport
loving public will tingle anew. The
Commercial club basketball players
will don their war paint next Friday
night and wage a gory battle with
the fruit jugglers of Milton. John E.
Montgomery, who manages the des
tiny of the athletic business men,
made the announcement this morning
with more visible pride than when
he accepted the position of council
man, and he is going about the streets
today tipping it off to fans that he
has an aggregation of basketball ar
tists that would make the famous
Red Wing3 turn green.
The Milton Commercial club has
had a team for some months which
has been raising a dust In the far
east end. Hearing that Pendleton
boasted a similar aggregation, re
peated defies have been hurled coun
ty sea;warj until the dignity of local
etalwarts could endure it no longer.
The gauntlet was taken up, the chal
lenge accepted and the duel will be
pulied off wi'.h all due pomp and
grandeur in the Commercial gym
nasium Friday evening.

wun rererence to the last com
munication above listed, it Is the un
derstanding of this department that
the Umatilla River Water Users' As
sociatlon is the incorporate name of
the water users under the present
Umatilla reclamation project, with
which corporation the department has
contracted in the usual form to se
cure the cooperation of the settlers
in the construction, operation and
maintenance of the project. It Is
further understood that Paid corpora
tion has the exclusive right to the use
of that name and that its officers
are H. T. Irvln, president; C. Mc
Naught, vice president; G. H. Upthe
grove, secretary; F. B. Swayze. treas
urer, with headquarters at Hermis
ton, Oregon. I note that whereas
you sign as president of the three as
sociations of similar but slightly dif
ferent names above listed, Mr. A. G.
Hemphill signs as secretary of this
particular one and Mr. G. L. Hurd
as secretary of the two others. It
would therefore seem that your use
of this corporate name was not an
inadvertent misnomer for either of
the other two associations. For this
reason 1 shall be glad to hear from
you by what authority ..you use the
corporate mime Umatilla River Water
Users' Association.
Please consider thU letter a re
ply to the communication from the
Umatilla Water Users' association,
dated at Pendleton, Oregon, Decem
ber 4. 1911, and entitled "An open

Oregon newspapers'' Also to tele

of a meeting Of farmers residing

From the Real Officer.
The real officers of the Umatilla
River Waterusers" association have
sent the following letter to the pres
ident:
ftermiston, Ore., Jan. 20, 1912.
Hon. William H. Taft, President
United States, Washington, D. C.
Dear Sir: A copy of a letter writ
ten by Secretary Fisher to J. N. Bur
gess of Stanfield, Oregon, under date
of January 12th, 1912, has come to
our hands, showing that certain or
ganizations of citizens in opposition
to the wen extension of the Uma
tllla project have addressed a letter
to ww under the corporate name of
Umatilla Ulver Water Users' associa
tion, signed by J. N. Burgess as pres
ident and A. G. Hemphill as secre
tary.
We wish to Inform you that these
gentlemen have no connection what
ever with this association and reside
at the present time several miles
from the Umatilla project, and they
have either used our corporate name
with malicious intent or through Ig
norance, which in either event might
be misleading to you. In these reo
Good Indian Bni Again.
After being "on the water wagon"
for several years, Jim Bad Roads,
one of the most physically perfect
Indians on the reservation, last night
fell off with a dull thud and, true
to his old Instincts, went on the war
path Immediately. After trying to
whip everyone in a Cottonwood street
livery stable, he was finally subdued,
taken into custody and this morning
forfeited five dollars bail for non
appearance in court. Bad Roads is
the Indian who, several years ago,
nearly choked Chief of Police Gur-
dane to deaih while the officer was
unlocking the old jail to put him In
Draymen Still Agricved.
The draymen of the city still feel
that they have a grievance against
the city becau-e of alleged violations
of the city ordinance governing the
draylng business. Their complaint
several weeks ago resulted In the se
curing of licenses by several persons
who were making charges for haul
Ing and who were unlicensed but
the?e men have not renewed their li
censes this quarter, according to the
regular quarter. A meeting was held
last evening with Chief of Police
Kearney and City Attorney Carter to
discuss the matter, and some action
will probably be taken before long.

lutions they oppose the construction
of the west extension of the Umatilla
project which would place us In a
light contrary to the real facts.
The officers and members of this
association always have been and are
now strong supporters of the recla
mation service and the construction
of the west extension by the govern
ment.
Yours respectfully.

ASSOCIATION.
By H. T. Irwin, President.
By G. II. Upthegrove, Secretary.
Among local and west end people
who have learned of the above In
cident there is strong Indignation and
Burgess is the subject of some very
caustic comments. The use of the
name of the Hermlston organization
Is characterized as a plain attempt
to bamboozle the administration by
making the president think the set
tlers on the Umatilla project oppose
further government work In the west
end.
