AMELIA WlEDERT SAYS HER
HUSBAND SECURED DIVORCE
BY FALSE REPREsENTATION
Asks That Decree Be Set Aside and
He Be Restrained From Selling
Property.

| Amelia Weidert has commenced an
action in the courts of Umatilla county
| asking that her former husband, John
Weidert, a former resident of Walla
posing of any of his property in UNA
tilla county, until the suit she insti-
| tuted to have the divorce proceedings
| Set aside is finally determined. The
Pendleton Tribune says:
| The law firm of HALEY & Lowell,
] local attorneys for defendant in the
| case of John Wiedert VS.. Amelia We'd
| ct in the superior court of King cOun
ty, Washington, together with Attor-
ney GOwan of Seattle, were yesterday
taking dispositions in the case which
comes on for trial in a few days in
| Seattle. The dispositions taken here
were regarding the property of the
plaintiff.
The case is very peculiar one ac-
cording to the petition of Amelia We'd
ert as filed in the circuit court of UNA
tilla county for the purpose of secur
ing an order from the court restraining
the plaintiff from disposing of any of
his property in this county until after
the case has been decided in Seattle
According to the petition filed here
Mrs Wje6ert alIeoaS that Mr. Wie6ort
secured a decree of divorce through
fraud and misrepresentation. The di-
vorce has already been granted and
Mrs. Wiedert is now bringing this ac-
ton to have the order set aside. In
her petition she alleges that he never
informed her of the nature of the ac-
ton which he was bringing in court
and as she could not speak English she
did not know. The attorney which he
secured for her, on the plea that it was
to settle some property rights, she al
leges bartered her rights away and
acquiesced in the granting of the di-
June and she alleges that Wiedert con-
tinued to live with her as her husband
until August when he informed her
that he had secured a divorce.
The property owned by Wiedert is
valued at about $4,000 and she wants
her dover rights.

Commissioner Peck Will Continue

A force of men armed with melting
pots and rollers will soon commence
the work of covering uncompleted BIZ
cycle paths in the city with a coating
of asphalt. Bicycle Commissioner
Peck has been busy the past week get
ting material and tools together and
hopes to be able to put a small force
of men to work tomorrow morning
Three blocks of uncompleted path on
South Third street will be treated to
coating of asphaltum first after
which the North Fourth and Elm
street path connecting the 0. r. & n
depot will be gone over. There is only

we're brought to this city by the
false representations of the Fitz-

the same one that now runs the
Citizen. He told of the thrift
and prosperity of the new colony.
None were idle, There was
work for all Happiness reigned
supreme.
He never mentioned the gin
mills, the b-othels and the gam b1-

fed the rulers of the city, the
Papworth dive, in particular,
over whose head there still hangs
an indictment in the county

it would not do to publish any

Anti-Stock Law Fiends.

This city has a few incorrigi-
BILE characters who rebel at the
wholesome restraint imposed by
the enforcement of laws which
tend to the making of a better
and more beautiful city.
Prominent in the 1aw1ess and
law-defying class are the anti
stock-law-fiends, who, not salts
fed with breaking the pound and
threatening the lives of those
who interfered with them, have
turned their attention to the
work of destrying the shade trees
planted by citizens and the city.
c. E. Holt and M. w. Howell,
who own beautiful homes on
south Grant street are highly in
censed at the repeated interfer-
ence with their attempts to start
shade trees along the walks ad-
joining their residences, and will
punish to the full extent of the
law, any person or persons found
cutting, breaking or pulling the
trees.
The destruction of shrubbery
is a despicable method of vent
ing the spleen of a disgruntled
nature and will be effectively dis.
couraged by stringent measures.

The work on the new postohice

We would not be entirely frank
if we did not admit that this is
one building we regret to see
built. We had hoped that the
square would be reserved as a
park, and probably that would
have been the result but for the
question of the postofice remov-
al. It is quite possible now that
other buildings will quickly fol-

out by the editor of the Leader.
But things soon changed for
the better. A good woman from
Dakota came and soon the Fitz.
gerald Enterprise appeared, ed
tied by a lady who was not afraid
to publish the truth, and soon
the city officials woke up and the
mask was thrown off the gambl-
iug dives and brothels and thew
had to leave our city. Then our
worthy Citizen editor, like Othelo,
finding his occupation gone, fold
ed up his tent and left with the
other blacklegs.
Now, if he has any claim to
building up this city the people
here fail to see it. There are
saloons and gambling dens here
yet, but not of the same stamp
as in the days of the Leader.
But the good preachers that
preach the truth and the cores
pondents that write the truth and
the fearless editor that prints
the truth will soon wake up our
city government again, and then
the saloons and gam bling hells
will go and the rather-be-a-black-
leg editor may go again.
