The crusade to force property
owners to make sewer connections is
now on in earnest, and during the
past week Sewer Inspector Withee
has officially notified all those own
ing property within two blocks on
each side of Main street that connec-
tions must be made at once. AS
result, Mr.. Withee states that there
has been a general move among all
the delinquents to comply with the
regulations, and the most of them
have made arrangements to have the
work done.
The plan Of operations outlined by
the inspector is to begin with Main
street and work from 1t in both di-
rections until the entire city is cover
ed. Accordingly, those within the 16
blocks which constitute that section
of the city lying two blocks on each
side of Main street, were first noti-
fled This, in Mr.. Withee's judg-
ment, is the proper place TO start op-
erations for two reasons: First, be-
cause more people are affected by
bad sanitation in this section; second
ly, because the property owners of
this portion are financially of the
class that can be prompt to. make
the needed connections.
Tomorrow Mr.. Withee states that
he will commence an investigation of
the sections lying two blocks. farther
out on each side of Main street, and
that all delinquents found will be Of
! ficially notified to conform to the
regulations. When that section is
! finished the investigation will be con-
tinued until the entire city has been
gone over.
1t is the intention of the authorities
| to complete the work of securing
sewer connections before the warm
weather commences, and that unless
| their orders are promptly obeyed
drastic measures will be taken to
bring the delinquents to time.

AN INCIDENT WHICH OCCURRED
AT ALLEN & GILBERT-RAMA
ER'S PIANO HOUSE, UNDER THE
BOWMAN HOTEL, IN PENDLE-
TON.
A Brother Paid $500 to Local Firm
For a Piano of the Same Make and
Style That Allen & Gilbert Ramal1er
Co. Now Furnish for 1915.

Ever since the first announcement
of your opening sale" said a promi
nent business man of Pendleton yes
terday, my wife has been urging me
to examine your stock Of pianos, but
there's so much humbug in advertis-
ing that l did not take much stock in
it until 1 found yesterday that our
bookkeeper had secured a piano from
you for 1916 of the same make and
style for which my brother paid $500
to Il local house year ago. That is
why visited your store Friday morn
ing. and that is why l bought my
piano from you.'
The reason for this great difference
in price is easily expla!ned-we sell
direct to the customer and save the
purchaser the middleman's profit. We
could cite other cases of the same
nature. and fully realize that several
families want pianos today, but on
account of the high prices quoted by
the regular dealer they do not feel
that they can afford to purchase a
high-grade piano. To these parties
we will say that we can save them
from 500 to $3.50 on a first-class in
strument.

admitted free OF charge, If he is unable to
pay for his accommodations. There will,
however, be a schedule of charge, under
the terms of which additional comforts,
privileges. etc. can be had by the payment
of a weekly sum to be agreed upon by the
applicant and the managers.
Within easy walking distance q splendid
gymnasium will be reared, TO which the &C.
hospital not afflicted with any publicly dam
gerous disease will have the freest kind of
access.
The ample grounds will be fitted up with
stables for horseback riding, running
tracks, golf links and all manner of ath-
ietic appliances. Newspaper men will also
have the privilege of spending their vaca-

JUDGE IRWIN ExoNERATED.
Charges of M. B. Cope Regarded as Re
futed

The following statement was given out
at the Department of Justice today by
Charles w. Russell, special assistant attor-
ney general:
Some time ago Mr.. Milton B. Cope, a
young lawyer of Ell Reno, Oklahoma, came
to Washington and filed charges against
Judge c. F. Irwin of the second judicial
district of Oklahoma, charging him on in
formation and belief with various offenses
and charging him upon the personal knowl-
edge of Mr.. Cope, supported by unsworn
statements for other spectators, with being
intoxicated on the bench on the 18th day
of February, 1904
1.-THE charges set forth conversations with
saloon keepers whom the Judge was accused
of inducing to vote for a certain candidate
Tor county attorney, who was running
against Mr.. Cope for that Office, by init
mating that he had given and would give
protection to saloon keepers and gamblers
in violating the law. Except the instance Of
drunkenness on the bench this was the
of the department.
Mr.. Cope was told by letter that the de-
| partment had concluded not to have an In
vestigation unless he would send affidavits
supporting the more serious charges par
tieularly the one concerning protection to
gamblers and saloon keepers. He did not
send any, but insisted upon an investig,l-
ton.
"a statement with supporting statements
and ahidavits has been received from the
judge showing that he was i'll with the
grip on the 18th day of February, 1904.
The judge sends affidavit from the saloon
keepers mentioned by Mr. Cope in which
they admit conversations, but deny that
anything of the kind alleged by Mr.. Core
was said. The showing of the Judge, in the
absence of anything further from Mr. Cone.
will De deemed satisfactory and conclusive.
THE Judge was opposed to Mr. Cope as
candidate and In favor Of hts opponent
and Mr.. Cope. who was defeated Is willing
to believe the judge a bad man."

Proposed Large improvements.

During the past week an announcement
was made that the programs had been sent
out to architects invited to enter the COM
petition for the preparation Of plans for
the group of buildings to be erected for
the use of the George Washington Univer-
sity at Van Ness Park, 18th and streets
northwest. The scheme for the new home
of the university provides for the erection
Of thirteen buildings at an estimated cost
of over a million OF dollars.
The expansion of the educational facilities
of the city are seen in other directions. A
beginning has been made in the erection
of a large building on the grounds Of the
Episcopal Cathedral. which will be used
as school for boys. 1t is probable during
the coming season active operation win be
begun in the erection Of the second build
ing In the group that is projected for the
American University.
A decision has been reached by the Met
:ropolitan Club In regard to making GOOD

partially DESTROYED the club house at the
southwest corner Of 18th and III streets,
