for he has been one Of the leaders in
the movement tor the opening Of the
street. However, Mr.. Raines took a
belligerent attitude and threatened
to shoot anyone attempting open
a way through his property. But in
spite of his warllke talk the street
was opened and a furrow plowed
along OIL either side Of where the
street is to run.
On the other side of the railroad,
men were at work sowing in the
Cunningham field, and Mr.. Cunning
ham also resented the intrusion of
the street committee. However, no
serious difficulty was had in opening
the street through his place, and
within a few minutes a piece of
farming land was transformed into
city street.
AS 1t now stands the street is OPEN
ed as far as the Pedro land beyond
Hazle street. At the time condemna-
ton proceedings were taken to open
the street it was thought all of he
land here belonged to Mr.. Cunning

around that way people coming into

Mckay creek and Tutuilla and also
the distance would be shortened by

SALEM EXCURSION COMING.
Business Men Plan a Trip to Easter,
Oregon.

oregon.
An event which is destined to
mark a new era in the civic and in
dustrial life of Salem is the contem-
plated business mems excursion to
eastern Oregon and probably Wash
ingtor, says the Salem Statesman
Already the initiative steps have
been taken and more than ordinary
interest has bsen manifested in the
excursion which is to be modelled
somewhat after that which was TAX
en- last year by the Oregon business
men on their journey through Cali
fornia. The present plan is 20 visit
progressive cities and to absorb the
latest ideas of Improvements in vogue
and to apply them to meet local con-
ditions.
Ex-Councilman Fred Steusloff took
the initiative steps in this move ment,
as he is firm believer in the bene-
fits that are derived from such n
trip. He was a member of the busi-
ness mems excursion that went to
California and SAYS that such a trip
is an education in itself.
Mayor Rodgers and President H.
b. Thielson of the Salem Commercial
club, are also in favor of this pro-
Jected trip and meeting of that or
ganization is to be called in a day or
so to consider the feasibility Of maxi
ing such trip. Among the cities
that will he on the itinerary will be
The Dalles, Walla Walla, Pendleton.

This has been cleanup" day in
Pendleton, and 1t has been observed
as never before in this city. All day
long trash piles have been burning in
nearly every street of the town and
the smoke curling upwards has made
the atmosphere much like that of
"webfoot" town during the summer
days when the forest fires are raging.
Likewise, many men in shirt sleeves
ing working with rakes in the streets,
lawns or back yards.
Today the trash is being raked into
piles in the streets and as much OF
is burned as possible, Tomorrow 1t
will be hauled away to the garbage
grounds by the city. Five teams have
been secured for the occasion and one
has been at work this afternoon. 1t
will probably require several days to
haul off the rubbish that has already
been gathered, but 1t has been diff
cult to secure teams for the purpose.
Until 1t is all hauled away the house,
holders are urged to continue their
work and are asked to rake the streets
in front of their places as we'll as
their lawns, for except in the paved
section the city does no street clean
ing.
That the cleaning up crusade has
been a complete success and will re-
suit in improving the appearance of
the town as well as making 1t more
healthful may be sen at "a glance.
Everywhere men, women and children
have entered into the spirit of the
occasion and men have raked who
never raked before. This afternoon
a half holiday has been granted to
all the public school children of the
city and some strenuous work is being
done by the children.
But the cleaning up has not been
confined to today for during the past
week or more many have been OBJ
serving the good suggestion made by
the women's clubs and many places
were in order before the cleaning
up day. arrived. Much credit is being
given the ladies who started the move
ment for the cleanup, AM the hope
is expressed that the work will not
cease when the two days are over.
Those who have failed 10 comply
with the request to clean up their
premises by tomorrow night are liable
to find themselves confronted with
| trouble in the form of the anti-gar-
bage ordinance now In force here. The
ordinance is very strenuous and
comprehensive one and according to
those in power 1t Is going to be en-
forced this spring as never before.
