WESTENDERS WANT A BRIDGE
Development OF the City Increases
the Need for IL.

once more a movement has been
launched for the purpose of securing
a bridge across the Umatilla in the
west end of the city. Residents and
property owners in that portion have
long been anxious for a bridge. and
they now believe that the affair is in
such shape that they have good
chances of meeting with success
They have prepared the following pc
tition to the city council and it will
be circulated among the residents of
the west end during the next few
days:
1--WE. the undersigned, residents
and property owners of the city of
Pendleton. most respectfully petition
your honorable body to build a wagon
bridge across the Umatilla at the
most practicable point, to be here
after determined by your body with
in the corporate limits of the said
city in the west end thereof, some
where about nine to ten blocks west
of Main street, and as a pledge of
our good faith and willingness to as
sist in constructing such Il bridge,
we hereby subscribe and agree to pay
the amounts set opposite our respec-
tive names for that purpose. when
called upon to do so by the city au-
thorities."
1t is said by those interested in the
project that Mayor Matloct has vol
unteered to subscribe $3.50 for the
purpose, and that Fred Walters will
do the same. Others will also con-
tribute according to their means.
The men who are behind the move
ment believe that since the new
school houses have been erected there
is an additional argument in favor of
the bridge, as it will be almost a ne
cessity after the buildings are in use.

MUNIPs AT THE AGENCY SCHOOL
Fifteen or More Cases Among the In
dian Children.

dian Children.
An epidemic of mumps is now
prevalent at the agency school, and
there are Is or 16 cases now suffer-
ing from swollen jaws. The first
cases appeared about a week ago, and
the trouble has gradually spread until
the sick room and one dormitory
room are now filled with patients.
About two-thirds of the cases are
girls, only five or six of the boys be-
ing afflicted. For several days past
DIR. Henderson has been obliged to
visit the school daily because of the
epidemic.
While nothing serious is expected
from the contagion, it is interfering
considerably in the industrial work
of the school. BY so many being
confined indoors with the mumps, the
work details are disarranged. Half
of the day at the agency school is
devoted to study and the other half
to manual training.

How Peace WAS Secured.

How Peace WAS Secured.
Denver. Jan. 9.-Alva Adams was
Saturday night declared by the legis-
lature to be the duly elected governor
of Colorado. The returns showed
plurality for Adams of 9.774. The Re-
state offices were declared elected. This
was the sequel of the trouble in Colo,
RADIO over the governOrship so far For
the future there is more trouble, for
Peabody very reluctantly agreed to
the action taken, and will contest the
election.
The result is a victory for the VOL
colt Republicans, who made the &C
ton of Friday last illegal by refus-
ing to act with their political breth-
rem, the real fight being over the APP
pointment of two supreme court
judges, both parties desiring the
judges, and the Wolcott men insisting
on being recognized in the appoint
ment. Saturday was devoted to CON
ferences, and finally the Peabody men

Adams.
What the Peabody men got out of it
was one of their own men, George w.
Bailey, of Fort Collins, for supreme
judge, the other, l.. NJ. Goddard, of
Denver, being the best compromise
they could make with, the WOlcott
men, The straw that broke the Pea
body back was the fact that the su-
preme court refused to declare legal
the proceedings of Friday. declining to
pass on any act of the legislature at
all. This left the committee of fifteen
without legal backing, and it was aban-
doned AS it is the Democrats are not
satisfied and will fight the nominations
to the supreme court. and they allege
that two Republican senators will join
them, in which case the Republican
fat will be in the fire.
