C. C. Proebstel, district deputy at- torney, stated this week that it had been learned that Sota worked for J. A. Terteling & Sons for several days at the Umatilla Ordnance Depot and had been issued a check for $8.10 dated August 31. At the depot, Sota gave the name as John V. Edgar and registered as 21 years of age. Since his arrest, however, Sota has main tained that he is only 16 years oid. Arraignment has been postponed due to the absence of Judge C. L. Sweek. George Carr. Other officers included: recorder, Glenn Williams; treasurer, John D. Rice; marshal, S. D. Phay: councilmen, F. B. Swayze, L. W. Da vis, H. T. Irwin, H. E. Hanby, J M. | Griffin and E. C. McMillen. Apparently there was quite a struggle in progress during that time as to the location of the city hall. S. R. Oldaker and others offered two lots on the west side of the tracks if the city would build a hall and jail at the cost of $1.500. In addition, they offered a bonus of $250 if the building were built within a year. The east side contingent made a counter proposal, offering the city the use of two lots for the price of $1 if the city would build a structure costing at least $2000, with a bonus of $500 if completed within a year. This group was led by Newport and Skinner. On August 21. 1907, the council accepted the bid of the lat- ter, purchasing Lots 23 and 24, Block 1 8, for the sum of $1.00. At that time a jail 12 X 14 feet | was constructed at the cost of $250. I The city hall is still under considera tion. : 1 ; ■' : PENDLETON BUCKS MEET BULLDOGS HERE SATURDAY : alls. 5, Probably the biggest game of the year for the Hermiston high Bulldogs will be played on the local field Sat urday when the Pendleton high school football eleven comes for the annual encounter. Hermiston has not defeat ed Pendleton since 1922 although three 6-0 games have been played in recent years. Pendleton has won the past two years by lop-sided scores. Pendleton again comes to Hermis- ton as a top-heavy favorite but the Bulldogs are a greatly improved ag- " gation over last year and for the first time in recent years boast a iph threat performer in Cullen, fl ' -footed fullback. Although Coach Pay Critchfield does not predict a he pro that his boys are ready for the fray and are deter- m ned to upset the well known apple cart. The contest will begin at 2 00 o'clock on the field behind the high school. Football - Pendleton vs. Hermiston - Sat. 2:00
