Tho dmidbcr which recently declared agunst the measure, will use Its Influence and en ergy to secure its passage at the elec tion next Tuesday. The withdrawal of the chamber's opposition followed, the sitpilng by the committee of 15, which Is sponsoring the consolidation measure, and liy a majority of the men named in the bill, as members of the proposed consoli dated port commission, of a pledge that the bonding power of the commis sion will not be used for new work without the authorlxatlon of the elec torate of the Port of Portland district. Opposition of the Chamber of Com merce and of other organizations and individuals to the proposed legislation was on the ground that It violated the principle of home rule by granting to a state body the power to Issue Bonds to be paid for by the people of this port district without the specific vote of this district. In a public statement Monday, Frank M. Warren, chairman of the present port commission, pledg ed himself and a majority ot the 12 men named as members of the new port commission to Issue no bonds, ex cept for certain maintenance work, without the approval of the electorate of the port district. IN S. P. TRAIN WRECK SAX FRANCISCO, Oct. 30. (A. P.) The fireman was killed, the engineer seriously Injured and several passen gent slightly hurt In the wreck of Southern Pacific train No. 124 at Opal midway between Santa Crux and Wat- sonvllle, late yesterday. H. A. Ilast of Santa Cruz was ttje nrertan. Walter P. Cushing of Oakland, the engineer, was taken to a hospital at Santa Crux. He had been running out of Boulder Creek, where his family was camping. Spooners Objected to Everybody loves a lover" that Is, everybody except residents near Wil mington, Del. The people there have appealed to authorities to stop spoon ers from parking their cars along the road ' and keeping them awake at Mexicans Building , Roads ' For the time being, at least, Mexi cans are neglecting their popular out door sport of exterminating one an other In revolutions and are devoting their energies to good roads work. The government has advertised for bids fot construction of 400 miles of broken rock, concrete surface roads connect ing Mexico City and Guadalajara and intends to follow this up with other extensive projects. COUNTRY FIRST OR PARTY FIRST.. OUTSIDE of the reactionary Harding-Lodge wing of the re publican party there is no objection anywhere in the world to the League of Nations. The league is a great vorld move tor peace and is so treated by all the nations. They have all gone in gladly without suspicion and without haggling. Even in Germany many look forward to membership in the league and the new Mexican government, khich shows signs of stability, is brushing its boots with a view to joining the class if it can pass the test. The fact all other great nations look so favorably upon the league and its provisions shows the absurdity of the objections raised by Harding. If half the things Harding claims are true none of those great countries would have gone into the league The English, French, Italian. Belgian, Swiss, Swedish, Nor wegian, Spanish and Japanese statesmen are not fools and they have no dfesire to 'sacrifice' their countries nor do they risk their sovereignty in the slightest. They know that the league is a common sense move and will accomplish untold good if given a chance. The Harding plea for rejection of the league is but part of a damnable political scheme to ball up the whole peace program hi a spirit of petty spite against President Wilson. It is monstrous and almost unbelievable that men could be so little. They vould get nowhere were it not for the fact that the hyphen ele ment is a big asset to them and there are sufficient newspapers and partisan voters to make a strong showing even for a weak tiuiuiueu; siiuaeciunua;, niirht.

Harding's election will mean rejection of the League of Na- the residents awake? spooners usuai nons, a separate peace with Germany and a deliberate affront i- are about as boisterous as grave- in our Tt will rnnriniiA worlrl turmoil and God knows yard mice.' what else. The world cannot go forward along lines of pros perity and peace until the rock of militarism and fear of war is taken from its neck. Our own country carries a staggering load ( i military expenses and in Europe the situation is a tragedy, i hey cannot endure the strain much longer. Is it worth while to.risK so much and sacrifice so much just t gam a petty political triumph for a group of small-minded i cautionary senatorial politicians. Shall ward politics come head of humanity and peace; ia partisanship more precious tnan patriotism ' THE MAYORALTY PENDLETON people are to be congratulated upon the character of the two men who are running for mayor. Both men are of the highest business and personal integ rity, both are committed to law enforcement and to making this a good home town. On this point there is no real issue between them as far as this paper can observe. Both men are churenmen and leid honorable lives. We can tak each man at his word and look for improvement along certain lines regardless of who ia chosen and there should be an improvement. The success of Pendleton and the future of the Eound-Up and Happy Canyon call for clean local conditions that will be satisfactory to those living here and to the thousands who come here not for license but to see the greatest and most thrilling show on earth. The candidacy of Mr. Hartman has a particular appeal for a i umber of reasons. He is an experienced businessman of pro t essive tendencies and has a record as a worker for the com- i unity good. He has had his shoulder to the wheel on counties, orcasions and works with a painstaking efficiency that elicits admiration. He has long been an officer and a leader in Com r.ercial Association work. He was a leader in the splendid move whereby we secured the public natatorium. He was a leader in the move whereby a group of businessmen, prompted chiefly by town patriotism, built the splendid Security apartment house ii order to help relieve the housing congestion. In any move for t e commercial or social upbuilding of the city George Hartman has always been a dependable asset and for such service he is entitled to credit. Another feature of the case is that Mr. Hartman is engaged in work that will make him always accessible to those wanting to confer with him and he will always be on deck to handle the innumerable duties that fall upon the mayor and make him a much busier man than most people realize. Mr. Hartman was induced to run by businessmen who were inspired by a desire to see Pendleton go forward. There has long been a desire to improve the city government machinery and to carry out in due season a community development pro- j-ram including more playgrounds, recreational facilities and t her features. They felt that a progressive businessman a? mayor would be a big help toward such ends and Mr. Hartman was persuaded to enter the race before any candidate had an i ounced himself. Those who wish Pendleton to have a capable, forward look ing mayor who is a veteran of many campaigns for the city's pood, will make no mistake in voting for Mr. Hartman and this expression is to be taken as no reflection upon Mr. Rugg, whose cnaracter and purposes are above question.

Ignorance Quickly Shown Two of the best ways for a mo torist to show his Ignorance of the rudiments of road ethics are "hog ging the road" and refusing to dim his headlights when another car ap proaches along the road. Such prac tices are not only unfair to the other fellow but are likely to result In serious accidents in which both cars may be smashed. 'V' '.

The Harding western campaign manager, who was an ardent pro German bfore the war, who glorified the kaiser snd censured the Bel gians for resisting German invasion, has also made a public ap peal against Senator Chamberlain. Why? Monta villa Flowers, t- professioal elocutionist from California, and several discredit t d politicians from Washington are telling us the same thing. Why? Why is it necessary for all those outsiders to tell the peo ple of Oregon how to choose a senator? i The titles on the city measures to be voted on Tuesday do not fairly prerent the issues; one measure will facilitate water gvstem extensions, another means a better fire department and k third the purchase of the block by the Catholic church.
