East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-04-20

Growing out of the efforts of the
East Oregonian and others to secure
the closing of the local saloons 'on
Sunday, a meeting of saloonkeepers
was held this afternoon in Foster &
McIntosh's establishment, on Court
street for the purpose of discussing
the question of closing on that day.
Among those present were F. G.
Mcintosh, F. X. Schempp, Mansfield,
Turner, Schmidt and others. 1t is
said that owing to the fact that many
could not attend no final action was
taken and that another meeting will
be held shortly. One of the saloon
men stated, however, that the senti-
ment for closing was strong even
among some firms who were hardly
expected to fall in line. The greatest
objection is said to come from the
various hotels having bars.
The movement in favor of Sunday
closing has been advocated for some
time past by certain saloon men of the
better class, who have been hurt by
the manner in which they have been

improve the conditions in order to al
leviate the criticism to which they are
being subjected. Also some of them
are in favor of the move because they
really desire to close one day in the
week, but do not feel in a position to
do so without a general closing.
In speaking of the matter this morn
ing F. G. Mcintosh. who led the liquor
forces last fall, said:
''I would like to close one day in the
week in order to secure recreation
for myself and my men. But unless
all close l could not do so without q
sacrifice to my business"
Others are interviewed were OF
much the same feeling, desiring tC
close for their own benefit as we'll al
to satisfy the demand for Sunday clos,
| ing.
But while saloon men are willing tC
close their doors on Sunday they say
that they will also insist that all othel
business houses required by law t.
stay closed shall be compelled to do so
1t is said that a committee of saloor
men will be authorized to see that tn,
rule is observed by all of their class
and that where violations occur tn,
proprietors will be prosecuted.

BOYCOTT DIRTY MARKETS.
Women of Portland Continue Crusade
for Clean shops.

Mrs. W. J. Honeyman, Mrs A. Il.
Rockey and Mrs. James S. Failing,
representing the school of domestic
science, who attended the committee
meeting of the city council yesterday
afternoon to urge the council to pass
an ordinance providing for a meat
and market inspector and two depu-
ties, were accorded a rather cool re-
ception, says the oregon Daily Jour
nal. Undaunted by the indifference
of the council, the women will con-
tinue their crusade against unclean
markets, and have decided on a plan
of action,
They have announced that If re-
quest is made by telephone or other
wise by market men, an inspection OF
the premises will be made and If the
market is found to be clean it will be
so declared publicly and placed on a
register at the school of domestic sci
ence. The women will then urge the
housewives of Portland to patroniz'
the places they have found to b'
clean.

Need a Fish Ladder.

Complaints are coming from resi-
dents on the Walla walla river that
trout cannot go over the Northwest
ern Gas & Electric companys dam
across the river, and that above the
dam there is very little fishing. The
dam is seven feet high and is not fit
ted with fish ladders. Those who
have visited that locality say that fish
are constantly seen leaping in their
endeavor to scale the obstruction
Complaints are also made that several
people have been fishing at the foot
of the dam in violation of the state
law which provides that no one shall
fish within 200 yards of such obstruc-
tion.-Weston Leader,

Rack From Visit to Boise.

T. G. HALEY returned last night
from a brief business trip to Boise
City. His mother is now residing in
Boise, but his father, John HALEY,
the pioneer stage line proprietor and
frontiersman, is experimenting min
ing interests in the Wood river dis
trict, and is not at his Boise home
very long at a time. Although this
pioneer is almost four score, he is yet
vigorous and aggressive and spends
his summers in the mining districts
looking after his large interests. He
is writing a history of Idaho terri
tory which promises to be one of the
most entertaining volumes ever writ
ten on the early history of that Sec
tion
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-04-20

Among the progressive citizens of
Pendleton 1t is the general sentiment
that the present condition of the
principal streets is not what it should
be in a place that ranks as the best
small city in the Northwest.
Some time ago the question of ma
cadamizing Main and a portion of
Court streets was taken up by the
city council with a view to having
summer. At that time there was
doubt as to the willingness of the
property owners to stand for the
work and the East Oregonian was
asked to aid in working up the SEN
timent in favor of the move. The re-
quest was granted, and through
these columns the matter was ex-
plotted and interviews with promi-
'nent taxpayers showed that most of
the resident Main street property
owners would like to see the work
done. some even wanting asphalt in
stead of macadam.
However, no move has yet been
taken by the council. At first 1t was
said that a petition from a majority
of the owners was necessary before
the work could be ordered, but 1t was
soon found that the council has pow
er under the charter to order the
work. and that II it is not desired,
two-thirds of the property owners
involved must demonstrate within 10
days Consequently, the matter is in
the hands of the council to do as they
see fit.
In speaking to the East Oregonian
this morning Councilman Rem, who
has steadily favored the improve
ment, expressed a fear that II the
matter was not settled soon it would
be set aside for another year. Ac-
cording to him 1t will take nearly
two months to get a crusher and a
roller here at the best, and that
should the work not be started soon
it cannot be finished before next
winter. The estimate of the street
committee is that matchmaking will
cost the property owners little less
than one dollar per front foot, thus
costing one who owns a 50-foot front
something under $50, and others al
the same rate. This estimate is bas-
ed on the city's owning the rock
crusher and roller and charging ac'
tual cost for the work done.
1t is said that the sentiment o.
practically all of the local owners o
Main and Court street property is II
favor of macadamizing, and it onl!
remains for the council to order i
done. Will they do it? If not, WHY
| NOT?

If you see a woman or man with lux

ther has dandruff to amount to anything.
In nearly every case where women and
men have thin brittle hair, they owe 1t
to dandruf. There are hundreds Of prep

but not one but Newbro's Herpicide tells
you that dandruff is the result Of germ
burrowing into the scalp, and that per-

HIGH PRICES FOR LAND
Athena Rancher Sells Out for $106
an Acre.

Wheat land in Umatilla county is
now past the 800 mark and is still
climbing, says the East Oregonian.
On Saturday the firm Craghead &
Hayes of Athena sold ,160 acres of
wheat land belonging to John McKin-
non. and situated one mile north of
that place for the sum of $16,S00 or
$1O5 per acre, Joe Sheard being the
purchaser.
This gives Mr.. Sheard $50 acres
of this kind of land in one body lying
about one mile north Of Athena. Mr..
McKinnon, who has been a resident of
the Athena district for several years
owns land in Alberta and will locate
there permanently.
This exchange of real estate in the
Athena district is constantly reducing
the population of the county as most
of those going to Alberta sell to their
neighbors whose land adjoins them,
thus increasing the holdings and re-
ducing the population of the country.

ROOSEVELT MAY RECOMMEND A
NEW DEPARTMENT OF IN.
sULAR POSSESSIONS. p
If Created Gossip Has It That Colonel
Edwards Of the Army, Will
Get Job.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. Sit is
stated on reliable authority that in his
message to congress, President Roose-
welt will recommend to congress that a
new department of government be eS-
tablished, to take charge of the coun-
try's insular possessions. If congress
acts favOrably this will mean a new
cabinet officer and the relieving
of three existing departments of work
that their chiefs have found to be en-
ormous The war department has the
Philippines, the state department has
Porto Rico and the navy department
has Guam. The hardest work has
fallen on the war department through
it's bureau of insular affairs. All the
departments affected are earnestly in
favor of a change which will bring re-
lief. Gossip already names the man
for the new place if it be created. He
is Col. Clarence r. Edwards, chief of
the war departments bureau of insu-
lar affairs. He is an Ohio man, a pro-
tege of Mckinley and Hanna In the
old days and is said to be well liked by
the president.
