NO. 20. PETITIONERS TOO LATE Wheat Growers Pro test Against Shipping Rates. GILLIAM FUMISHESSI8NEBS Railroad Commission to Hold Hearings at Wasco anc Pcndlaton on Its own Motion. Grain shippers on the main line of the 0. R. &N. railroad from Haineato Seufcrt's and upon the Pilot Rock, Elgin, Shnniko, Ilepimer, Condon branches and tho Washington division have, according to a Portland paper, filed a complaint with the state railroad commission against the existing schedule of raU s and auk that a reduction of at least forty per cent bo declared by the commission, after formal hear ing of the same hns been had. The complaint is made in the name of George Peebler, of Pen dleton, through hia attorneys James A. Fee and A. J. Slater, and embodies practically the same allegations as those set forth in the complaint made by tho railroad commission, upon its own motion and hearings have already been set for Pendleton, Sent 28 and Wasco, Sept 22. Tiiis comaa too late to be made a part of the" Pendleton hearing because of the time limit fixed by law in which formal notifka (Jfl)i shall be made to the defend ant railroad companies before a hearing can be set. This complaint herein referred to grew out cf the petition cir culated throughout Gilliam, Was co, Sherman, Umatilla and other counties. The individual who circulated the petition in this county made hia headquarters in Condon for about two weeks and had nothing to do with ware house men or reporters. All the time the petitions were circula- lated in the wheat belt the news-1 papers did not mention the mo vement which started from the "Prohibition City." In Gilliam mtny farmers eagr to get a re duction in wheat shipping rates placed their names on the peti tion and are interested in the outcome. Who Wears the Button? Taft buttons are much in evid ence here, due to tho activity of the hustling, energetic members of the Taft Republican Club of Condon precinct. 1 ithographs of Taft and Sherman are to be sesn in Condon. Among the Democrats County Judge Dunn was the first to dis play a large Bryan picture in one ofthe windows of the Dunn Bros, store, but it is County Treasurer McMorris who wore the first Bryan button in the town. Pioneer Passes Away. . Another esteemed pioneer has crossed the great divide. .Mrs. J. P. Greincr passed away at the home of her son, Paul, Monday night at 10 o'clock. Although ill but a short time with internal trouble, the fact that Mrs. Greiner was in her 84th year made it difficult for her to rally. Her maiden name was Katherine EgglofI and she was born in Lor raine, France. She came to this country when eighteen years of age, settling with her parents at Detroit, Michigan, where Bhe was later united in marriage to John Paul Greincr. During their residence in Detroit, fourteen children were born, five of whom are still living. Later the Grein ers moved to Kansas where Mr. Greincr died after which Mrs. Greiner removed to Oregon set tling in this county where Bhe lived up to the time of her death. The five surviving children art Andrew, Paul and Catherine, ol Condon, Mrs. Riley of Portland, and Mrs. Brandon of Wallowa county. The funeral services were held at the home of Paul Greiner Tuesday morning al 9:30 and afterward at the Catho lic church of which Mrs. Greiner had been a devoted and life-long member. Rev. Father Cantwell conducted the services and his sermon was an eloquent and touching tribute on the memory of one of the most honored and loved of Gilliam county's pioneer families. The interment was in the Catholic cemetery. The at tendance was large and the floral tributes were many. The Globe joins in extending heartfelt sym pathy to the bereaved family.
