There are many colonels and majors
In Pendleton and the manner In which
the titles were acquired is a matter of
interest, for some of the gentlemen
nave not seen military service. How
ever, Major Lee Moorhouse is not
one Of that class, for at one time he
was a duly commissioned major in
the Oregon national guard. While
In reminiscent mood this morning
the major told of his martial expert
ence and of his acquisition of his title.
During the Piute war of rs this
section of the country was a scene of
excitement, and it was feared for a
time that the entire country would be
overrun with these Indians under the
leadership of Buffalo Horn and Egan.
To hold back the Indians federal
troops were sent into the field and
also some companies of the state
guard were sent to Umatilla by Gov
ernor Chadwick, who came to that
place In person. While the executive
was there Lee Moorhouse acted in
the capacity of clerk or private sec
retary. Later on he was appointed
by the governor as assistant adjutant
general with the rank of major. At
that time assistant genrals were sta
toned at different portions of the
state, custom now no longer fol-
lowed.
During his term in office Major
Moorhouse was engaged in the mer-
camille business on Court street, and
while ordering uniforms for the mem
bers Of the national guard company
then in existence here, he bought
majors costume for himself. AS he
had but little use for the suit himself,
not being an active member of the
company, he disposed of the uniform,
minus the shoulder straps, to James
A. Fee, who was then a lieutenant in
the Pendleton company.
BY many 1t has been the belief that
Major Moorhouse earned his title
through service as Indian agent on
the Umatilla reservation, but he has
a more valid title to the rank than
could come from holding such a posi-
ton.

ton on the plaza recently with Dep;
uty Bill Edwards as chief marshaI.'
1t was the first trial of the proposed,
method of cleaning the streets by way

About 8 o'clock some forty whitel
wings solcnnly took UP a position on the
plaza. Shortly afterward Deputy Com,
missioner Edwards footed up in an au-
tcmobile and got things in readiness
, Guests of the Hotel Savoy and the
New Netherlands and members of the
metropolitan club gathered on the ball
comics to see what LAS coming off.
Deputy Edwards led the way to a.
dark corner OF the park, where a
queer looking machine was drawn up.
1t was a cast iron water wagon. but
at first sight it looks like one of the
great lakes whalebacks. The wagon

ing company.
According t. Mr.. Edwards the
wagon exhibited weighed 1880 pounds
and had q water capacity Of $50 gall
Ions. In the front is an air tank which
has a pressure of twenty-five pounds
;; and the air pressure forces the wa
ter out at the rear in two strong
streams which spread fan like for a
distance of ten feet on Zach side. Mr.,
Dewey asserts that the wagon VIII do
away with the necessity for hand labor
in cleaning the streets.
After the wagon and it's workings
had been fully explained to the news
PAPER men Deputy Commissioner Ed
wards took an extra hitch on his
trousers and led the way out into the
plaza. Commissioner Bensel had not
yet arrived SO it was determined to
hold a rehearsal.
First several horse sweepers were
sent OF a trot over the a%sphalted
plaza in an imposing array. Then the
water wagon got busy.
With a quo swish the water poured
from M of the fushers in the rear
and it was feared that Deputy Ed
wards a been swept away, but both
he and the Sherman statue Were in
tact. After the wagon had gone up
and down the plaza it was shown that
it had leaned away the surface dirt
neatly and piled it up on each side
] of the plaza. Then the white wings
gathered it up.
Commissioner Bensel arrived after
the wagons first trial.
I'VE are merely making an expert
ment," he said. The whole idea is to
find some method of cleaning the
streets more thoroughly and with the
use of mechanical apparatus rather
than by hand. If this flushing wager
proves a success the city could save
Il great deal of money on hose and
many other things. After the traffic
