on the children, who, to escape the
wolves of want, were to have left the
city to be cared for by citizens of
Philadelphia and Providence, the
strikers feel that the last straw .of

COMMITTEE
PLEASED
WITH POWER SITE
(Contiued from page 1)
very conservative estimate to make as
to the amount of power which could
be generated. In fact when the filing
was made on the water, the state en
gineer raised the amount of the esti
mate from 2000 to 3154 horsepower.
Very Enthusiastic.
"Personally, I am very enthusiastic
over the proposition and think that.
If the opinion of an expert hydraulic
engineer bears out the practicability
of the project, that the city has a rare
opportunity confronting 'it. I can not
speak for anybody but myself but
from the remarks made by the other
counellmen yesterday, I believe all
share my views more or less."''
--Councilman Klrkpatriek was anoth
er who was much pleased with the
result of their inspection yesterday.
He declared he could not presume to
pass upon the site from a professional
standpoint but that It looked good to
him. Council Sharon declared him
self likewise Impressed and of the
opinion that If the city was forced to
Invest $200,000 In the construction of
a power plant, that It would prove
a stroke of good business.

After concluding their examination
of the proposed site offered them, the

of the Pacific Power & Light company,
several miles farther up the river, but
were refused admittance by the man
In charge Following their arrival,
the man went Into tho telephone booth
and, after a conversation supposedly
with his superiors either In Pendleton
or Walla Walla, came out and an
nounced that It was strictly against
the company rules to allow any visit
ors In the plant owing to the great
danger.
Option Is Signed.
The month's option on the site was
taken yesterday and by its terms the
council Is to have the privilege of an
oAUHnnnl nntlon of six months at
the expiration of thirty days if such
an extension of time is deemed neces
sary, Howard Evans, president of the
Incorporations which has the filing,
demurred at first to this clause but
finally affixed his signature, so that
the city will now have sufficient time
In which to conduct a thorougn in
vestigatlon.

VOTE AGAINST STATE AID
AT MEETING SATURDAY
Ilecommciidatloiig Mulled to Chair
man of Get Together Committee
C. A. Ilurrctt Charged Bad Motives
to Governor West.
By action of the county good roads
association taken at a meeting held
at the Commercial club rooms Sat
urday that organization went on rec
ord as opposing any good roads bill
containing a state aid clause and fa
voring the county bonding proposi
tion. The above action was taken after
considerable discussion during which
it was- made apparent that the ma
jority of those present were opposed
to state aid and favorable to inde
pendent action by this county.
At the outset of the meeting which
was presided over by H. J. Taylor,
president, with Sam R. Thompson as
secretary a letter from Governor
West was presented by E. B. Aldrlch.
It contained the request that such
recommendations as the association
had to offer be sent at once to W. B.
Ayer . of Portland, chairman of the
get together committee which the
governor appointed to bring the con
flicting elements Into harmony.
In the discussion of the subject of
road legislation the state aid plan
was opposed by Joint Senator C. A.
Barrett of Athena, Dr. P. W. Vincent
and by Dr. C. J. Smith. Dr. Vincent
made a motion t'nat the association
go on record as opposed to state aid
and later he amended hia motion so
as to Include a resolution proposed by
Mr. Barrett endorsing the county
bonding plan. The motion was car
ried. Barret Aired Grief.
In the course of an extended talk
C. A. Barrett cast reflections upon
the motives of Governor West by as
serting that In his advocacy of the
good roads bill the governor is In
spired by a desire to build up a po
litical machine. He also sought to
cast asperions upon C. S. Jackson,
owner of the Portland Journal, who
has been a powerful advocate of
good roads legislation.
Following the session which ad
journed as soon as action was taken
Barrett was the subject of severe
criticism by members present who
charged his hostility to Governor
West up to the fact the governor re
moved Dr. Plamondon, Barrett's son
in-law, from the superintendency of
the eastern Oregon asylum, to which
position Plamondon was appointed by
Acting Governor Bowerman at a time
when the branch asylum was still in
a more or less mythical shape.
FLOOD
WATERS FOR
60,000 ACRES, ECHO
(Contiued from page 1)
'tllla river at a point above Barnhart
and brought to the summit of the
hills some three miles southeast of
Echo.
Mr. Severance and a crew will then
begin work on the permanent loca
tion.
So confident was the committee of
the success of the undertaking that
thev agreed to furnish J500 to II
nance the project until the district
can be bonded, when this money will
h returned. But to guarantee the
committee against any loss a sub
scrintion paper will be circulated lat
er but no money collected unless the
bonds fall to carry. This, however,
is improbable, it is thought.
Government officials have agreed
to release sufficient flood waters to
irrigate the canalv provided action to
utilize the water Is taken within a
reasonable time. The land proposed
to be irrigated is the lower portion
of the old Sturgis p'.an and lying be
low the 1000 foot contour. Much of
the land has been farmed to wheat
for many years.
Many Attend Indian Meetings.
The interest in the Indian revival
grows and on Sunday the church was
willed with -chairs in every space.
Among those present from other res
ervations are Rev. Mark Arthur,
James, Kash Kash, Mrs. James Stew
art, Silas Cormett and wife, Mat
Whitfield, James Moore, Harry Cor-
bett, James Thomas, Charles Little,
Wm. Frank and wife, Milton George,
Mrs. Hatty Amels, Miss Mary Ameis,
Josiah Red Wolf and wife, Mrs.
Hiwmakamalats, Elizabeth Green,
Lena Johnson from Idaho, also Per
ry Kukup and wife and Elijah Mil
ler and wife from Warm Springs, Or.
On Sabbath evening a temperance
rally was held with several speakers
and two of the visitors addressed the
children at the government school.
In the afternoon when Chief Pel
was brought into the congregation
much interest was shown by al! by a
hearty hand shake while many wept
at seeing him who had been away s-.
long.

reason for nis retention, mjuu
been representing the county for sev
eral terms and has always been align
ed with the old republican guard but
this year for the first time he has
signed "Statement No. 1" alter nis
name. Hinkle is appealing to tne
west end voters by making me pro
motion of Irrigation his principal
pledge w hile Oliver has adopted
"Fewer laws and less taxes-' as his
battle cry.
Snllng Will Run.
Frank Saling. county clerk for sev
eral terms, is not yet tired of serv
ing the people and, while he has not
yet made a formal announcement,
he has declared to friends that his
petitions will be In circulation shortly
after March 1. The only other can
didate whose name has been connect
ed with the office as a possible candi
date is Roy W. Ritner, well known
young farmer and calendar clerk of
the state senate during several ses
sions. However, since S.illng's candi
dacy has become more or less of a
certainty. It is understood that he has
silenced all talk of this nature.
Till Taylor, democrat, who has
served Umatilla county efficiently as
sheriff for the past twelve years, will
without doubt enter office again
without opposition. So popular has
he proved as a vote getter In the past
that all who covert his office fear to
challenge him. However, in the
event he should decline to run again,
which is unlikely, former Chief of
police Tom B. Gurdane would prob
ably apply for the position as a re
publican candidate.
C. P. Strain, a democrat also, is
looked upon to succeed himself as as
sessor. He takes the position that,
inasmuch as he must work for some
body he is willing to continue his
service to the public providing there
is a demand for the same.
Bradley and Welles.
" G. W. Bradley, treasurer, and Frank
K. Welles, school superintendent, are
two other republicans who have been
In office for a. number of years and
who will probably go before the vot
ers again. No opposition to either
has yet developed although for awhile
both Principal Nordhoff of the Fern
dale schools and Principal A. C,
Hampton of the local high school
were being discussed as men eligible
to succeeM Welles. Both have, how
ever, positively declined to enter pol
itics.
Tinn 3 RnrrniiirVia Viaa nhTv Vtaon In
the recorder's office a part of one
term and he will be a candidate for
re-election. No rival has yet entered
the field and politicians believe it is
un'.ikely that any will.
Commissioner Rattle Hot One.
Because of the great interest in
the good roads movement now, It is
probable that one of the hottest
fights of the coming election will be
waged over the office of commis
sioner. Horace Walker, old republi
can warhorse, who has been a mem
ber of the county court for saveral
terms, Is already an announced can
didate for re-election, but opposition
has developed In both parties. Mayor
Waterman of Hermiston has filed his
declaration and will combat with the
present incumbent at the April pri
maries, while Manuel Friedley, well
known Juniper farmer, is being
groomed as the democratic candidate..
Tramp SO Miles to Wed.
White.burg. Ky. Thirty miles
through a blinding snowstorm, with
mountains to cross and angry parents
behind them, came James Coombs Jr.
and Miss Virgie Coombs, his cousin,
to be married. They routed the clerk
of court from his bed early to give
them a license and tlv n persuaded
the Rev. James E. Bradford to unito
them.
Later in the day they left Whites
burg on the trip back to the Perry
county line, where they have both,
spent their lives.
The bridegroom is twenty and his
