They want legisla tion that will permit further looting and dislike the sane and wholesome stand taken by the Wilson administration. The antagonistic view of the water power conference speakers is the finest tribute yet paid to the merits of the Ferris bill. IT IS DIFFERENT NOW 1915 CROWD LARGER 111 1914; miS INTO CITY CROWDED CITY Al.UKADY FACKKl) WITH VlITOIUS AND MOKE All IS TO ARRIVE. "TO SK11VE, TO GIVE.'" Folger McKlnsey has thU ly- rlc of serving and giving. It is one of many beautiful things in his Baltimore Sun Column: "The patience of the living Appeal so much to me; The tenderly forgiving. The scatterers of glee; The doing and the daring. The humble and the kind. The suffering and sharing, The brave of heart and mind. They paint such woeful pictures Of sad and stormy life; But over all the shadows, And tempering the strife, Is this eternal beauty Of throngs that sweetly live The patient, with their duty, To serve, to love, to give! OUR BUILDING OPERATIONS asifcKDAY. the corner stone was placed for the Pendleton federal build ing. The structure will cost $100,000 and will be a credit able addition to the city. But the federal building is not the only new piece of con struction work underway here. The new wing for the state hospital is an equally import ant job from the standpoint of cost. The public library soon to be erected will cost $35,000. A concrete block has just been finished on East Court street and new homes are being built jn all parts of towrn. Just be low Pendleton the O.-W. R. & N. Co. is spending $200,000 on a new freight terminal. Last year the building oper ations in Pendleton were pro portionately greater than those of New York. This year the record is still better, all of which is a favorable showing for the Round-up town. IT WOULD PREVENT , LOOTING . ENATOR CHAM BER- LAIN was not lacking abundant justification when he charged yesterday that the water power confer ence in Portland was staged and manipulated for the bene fit of private electric interests. When this move was initi ated in the Oregon legislature last winter the hand of the el ectric trust was as apparent as the nose on a man's face. The conference was called not to "discuss" water power legis lation but to denounce the ad ministration's efforts to enact a law that would provide for power development on a basis fair and just to the public. Before the conference yes terday Frank H. Short, electric company attorney from Fres no, Calif., told the whole story when he criticised the Ferris bill because it gives the govern ment authority to regulate the issuance of stocks and bonds as well as rates. Without such authority the regulatory efforts of the government would be futile. The electric companies would be free to overcapitalize as much as they please and to charge double prices for their service just as they are doing now. To anyone with even a APPETITE POOR? TRY HOSTETTERS Stomach Bitters It In a splendid appetizer and remedy !r the Moinach. ft T is peculiar how nation's J) during war time interpret the same subject differ ently when their relative po sitions are changed. Eng land's recent order in council placing cotton on the contra band list is an example. When Russia was at war with Japan and sought to make cotton contraband Eng land was the first country to object. This has been recall ed by A. R. Watson, former corporation counsel for New York City. Mr. Watson says: "Russia, when at war with Japan, added raw cotton to its list of contraband upon the ground that raw cotton was used in the manufacture of ex plosives. It is interesting now to recall that this evoked a prompt and vigorous protest from Lord Lansdowne, then British secretary of state for foreign afairs, British India be ing the largest importer of raw cotton into Japan. The langu age used in the note to Count Lamsdorff, Russian minister of foreign affairs, is certain not to be overlooked by our presi dent in the course of the pres ent controversy with Great Britain. "'The quantity of raw cot ton that might be utilized for explosives,' wrote Lord Lans downe, under date of October 9, 1904, 'would be infinitesi mal in comparison with the bulk of cotton exported from India to Japan for peaceful purposes, and to treat harmless cargoes of this latter descrip tion as unconditionally con traband would be to subject a branch of innocent commerce, which is especially important in the far east, to a most un warrantable interference.' "An earlier and still more pointed protest was addressed to the Russian foreign office by Secretary of State John Hay under date of April 30, 1904, in the course of which it was said: 'Articles which, like coal, cotton and provis ions, though of ordinarily in nocent" nature, are capable of warlike use, are not subject to capture and confiscation un less shown by evidence to be actually destined for the mill tary or naval forces of a bel ligerent.' " International law all re pends upon whose ox is being gored. Happy Canyon is in line to usurp Pendleton's reputation for being the largest town of its size on earth. nmmi Cowboydom likes Pendleton because every rider is sure of a square deal when he per forms at the Round-up. After that loan has been made to the allies there should be some business in the wheat pit. Once more, "Let 'er Buck." One of Crew Killed. LONDON, Sept. 23. One member of the crew of the British steamer Groningen was killed when the vessel was destroyed by a mine. That the 1915 Round-up crowd will be larger than the 1914 crowd Is the general concensus of opinion. Fvery train coming into the city is loaded and the city Is already black with people. Tomorrow thousands more will arrive and the climax will be reached Saturday. ' Portland will send more than twice the crowd that came up last year, ac cording to J. Ia Miller, traveling passenger agent of the O.-W. R. & N No. 18 last night alone brought in 130 people from Portland and many others came on the local. The morning train was packed again and every train from Portland for the next two days is expected to bring more than 100 people from the me tropolis. The Journal special will arrive. In the morning with its load of boosters. The trains from Walla Wal'.a and i the east end of the county are carry I Ing extra cars and all are packed to 1 the doorways. From Pilot Rock, I from the west end of the county and I from points to the east others are . pouring in by train and many auto ' mobiles are rolling in with visitors. ' The Northern Pacific train from , Pasco carried five extra coaches this i morning and brought in several hur- nred people.

RELAY IS GOING TO BE AT TEJUTED FROM FRISCO TO SALT LAKE. For the purpose of arranging flights In Pendleton while passing through this city on the first attempt to make a relay flight from San Francisco to Salt Lake via Portland, Seattle and Spokane, Benjamin Stern, well known aviator and birdman, is in the city today and is nogotiating with the Commercial association. Mr. Stern has been in San Fran cisco as manager of Art Smith and Charley Xlles, who have been making thrilling flights at the exposition, and is now planning out the relay air trip to Salt Lake. He will make the Initial flight himself, flying from San Francisco to Sacramento where he will receive a letter from the gov ernor. Niles will probably then take up the flight and will alternate with Bob Brown, who is at present in Mexico. They will stop at all of the principal points en route. From Portland they will fly to Seattle, from Seattle to Spokane, from Spo kane to Walla Walla, from Walla Walla to Pendleton, from Pendleton back to Portland to change aerO' planes, then back to Pendleton and on to Salt Lake. In all they figure about 14 days will be required for the trip. Mr. Stern proposes to give two flights in Pendleton If he can get a guarantee of expenses. One will probably be an illuminated night flight. Mr. Stern while here will at tend the Round-up and observe the flights which -the cowboys take from the backs of the bucking bronchos. LICENSE FOR OPEN-AIR DANCE FIXED AT $100 COUNCIL TAKES ACTION TO PRO HIBIT SUCH TRANSIENT ENTERTAINMENTS. for the purpose of shutting out transient open-air dance shows the council last evening passed an ordi nance requiring a license almost pro hibitive. To conduct an open-air dancing show in the city, a person will have to pay a fee of $100 a night. The council last evening passed several other ordinances also. One authorized a contract with the New port Land & Construction Co. for the improvement of West Jackson street and another authorized a contract with the Warren Construction Co. for the paving of South Main street. By resolution the city attorney was instructed to foreclose the liens on property adjacent to Tustln street for the improvement of which assess ments were recently made. The Monroe street grade was adopted and the first resolution, ordering the grad ing of this street, was passed. The resignation of Chief of Police Kearney was accepted and the ap pointment of Alex Manning to suc ceed him was confirmed. The petition of Hans Pahl and others for a light at the corner of Market and Railroad streets was granted. Such other bus iness as was done was of minor Im portance. , NEW THRILLS MARK OPENING OF ROUND-UP (Continued from page 1.) Charlie Wler of Arizona, one of the best ropers in the world, made his first appearance at the Round-up to day and he celebrated It by a clever exhibition. His first cast caught and he busted his steer and tied it in 59 4-5 seconds. But for the kicking . of the downed brue he would have i cut off ten seconds In his tie. j In Bucking" Content.

Anthnnv Comstock, noted throughout the na tion as a roe of vice, is dead at his home at the age of 71 years. He sue. cumbed to pneumonia. Comstock realized that the end was near. He summoned a stenographer from the New York offices of thn so c!ety for the Suppression of Vice and' uitiuicu m ner memoranda for the1 continuation of the society, of which1 iormany years he was secretary and special agent. Comstock was born March 7, 1844, at New Canaan, Conn. An idea of the extent of Comstocks work can be realized when it Is known that he had made upwards of 6000 arrests, obtained more than half that number of convictions and de stroyed several hundred tons of In decent literature.

House Cleaning! Help! Help! HOUSECLEANING in the way mother used to do rt was strenuous work. Chaos reigned and elbow grease was the chief lubricant. Today science has lessened her labors; There are cleaners, sweepers, scrub bers, mops, and a thousand and one de vices for saving time and toil. The first step towards correct house cleaning is the choice of the right mater ials to work with and in finding these the advice of the advertising columns of The East Oregonian may be of assistance.
