SPECIAL NEAR
BEER" SESSION
COUNCIL TO WRESTIIE WITH
QUESTION AGAIN TONIGHT
License Ordinance Goes Into Effect
Today-Two of Fifteen Resorts
Asking for Licenses May BE Re-
fused. Leaving Unluclly Thirteen
Councilmen Are Divided Upon the
Subject.

If the threatened action of the city
council is taken this evening-if some
of the near-beer joints against which
the license ordinance was more par
tcularly directed are refused permls-
sion to continue in the business, Pen
dleton may be left with 13 saloons
unlucky number!
The license proposition comes up at
an adjourned meeting Of the council
this evening which will be held for
that purpose. Last night the city
fathers undertook to bring the matter
up, but owing to the fact that the IL
cense ordinance did not go into ef-
feet until today action was postponed
until this evening.
Two opinions prevail among the
councilmen and as a result there may
be an interesting session when the
matter comes up for hearing tonight.
Chairman Stroble of the license COM
mittee will probably report suggest
ing that all licenses be granted, upon
the theory that as the ordinance is
NNAg AlSAu anu 6lNtS lllt pOllNt COIll-
plete control, any violation of its re-
Quirements will be sufficient to put
questionable places out of business by
their own acts. Mr.. Stroble believes
that it would be much better for the
questionable places to put themselves
out of business rather than to have
the council do so, inasmuch as such
a step on the councils part might
create vacant buildings
On the other hand there are sew
eral of the ouncilmen who frankly
demand that no licenses be issued to
certain places which are considered as
Objectionable, either through supposed
violations of the prohibition law, or
through the character of their habit
ues. These members will oppose.

those instances and If their efforts are
successful at least two "joints" viii.
have to go out of the near-beer busi-
ness tonight-leaving the city with
but 13 places at which a man can
quench his thirst with temperance
beer-unlucky thirteenl
Still other members hold that none
of those places whose proprietors
were convicted or pleaded guilty at
the last term of court, to violations of
the prohibtory law should be granted
licenses.
Practically without exception the
near-beer saloons have in their ap-
plications for licenses. The first to
apply was the Parr Bros. place on
upper Main street Others asking
permission to continue in the business

AS AN INVENTOR
J. ALBERT CHEAPE HAS
NEW ADDING MACHINE
Formerly Resided in This City and
Was Connected With Projected Wa
ter Power Plants-His Invention Is
Latest Addition to a Great Field
and Will Probably Make Inventor
Famous.

J. Albert Cheape, former resident
of Pendleton and well remembered by
scores of local people, has won fame
as the inventor of an adding machine.
He is now located in Virginia and the
following story of his invention is
from the Charlottesville Daily Pro-
gress:
Mr.. j. Albert Cheape, the we'll
known inventor of this city, has per-
fected an invention which is sure to
bring fame to himself and TO place

and it will be produced and marketed
by home people, the Abermarle Add

SCHOOLS NEED
MUCH MONEY
BOARD WILL ASK FOR
FIVE MILL TAX LEVY
Made for Special School
Meeting December 23-Levy Heav-
ier But Cost Same to Taxpayers as
During Present Year-Cut in Valu-
alton Makes Difference.

Roughly estimated, It will cost
schools Of Pendleton during the COM
ing year. and for that purpose the
school voters will probably be asked
by the school board 10 vote a levy
of mills on all taxable property
within the district at the meeting for
the purpose of tax levy, which will be
held on Wednesday, December 23.
The arrangements for the meeting
were completed last evening at meet
ing of the board.
The levy, as it will probably be
made, will be heavier by two mills
than the levy Of the present year, but
the cost to the taxpayers will be the
same the difference being due to the
cut in valuation made by Assessor
Strain.
At last nights meeting the board
discussed a proposed plan for the en-
largement of the school district to in
clude outlying territory, at present
practically in no district, and which
now enjoys local school privileges
without the taxation.
The plan Is to include the Fulton
district on the north which, for some
time has been without school facli-
ties. On the east it is proposed to ex-
tend the limits to the reservation
boundary, the same boundary also to
mark the southern line of the pro-
posed district. On the west no change
is suggested, as the limit in that di-
rection already extends some distance
into the country.
This plan also will be properly for
mulated and submitted to the direc-
tors at the annual meeting.
