OFFICE FOR
j. s. COURT
Mrs. Vida Johnson is Deputy
For Federal District and
Circuit Courts.
WILL OPEN OFFICE IN
SMITH H-CRAWFORD BLOCK.

New Official Says Pendleton's Gov
ernment Building VIII Be Made
Large Enough to Accommodate
Federal Court and Bureau OF AMI
NAL Industry as Well as Local
Postoffice-F'irst Term of Court
Will Be Held the First Week in De
cember.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-09-14

A branch office for the United
States district and circuit court for
Oregon will be opened in Pendleton
tomorrow. Mrs. Vida Johnston, dep
uty clerk in both these courts.
is here and will be in charge of the
local office, which is located in room
12 in the Smith-Crawford building.
Before coming to Pendleton. Mrs.
johnson served as deputy clerk for
the federal court in the Portland Of
fices for two years and is therefore
familiar with the duties which win
devolve upon her in her new position
She is now seeking man for the
position Of deputy United States mar
shall who is to be a resident of this
city.
Federal Building Will Be Large.
According to Mrs. Johnson the pre-
liminary arrangements for the con-
struetion Of the new federal building
in Pendleton are being rushed as rap
idly as possible and she expects
to see the completedl structure before
she leaves Pendleton. She is also au-
thority for the statement that the
| building is to be made large enough
to accommodate the local postoffice
and provide for the federal court
This will mean a court room and Of
fices for the deputy clerk and deputy
U. s. marshal.
The headquarters of the northwest
federal bureau of animal industry will
also be moved from the Emith-Craw-
ford building into the federal build
ing as soon as the latter is completed
This means that the treasury de-
partment has already ordered a
change in the plans for the federal
building and that it will be made
much larger than was first intended
when the $4,000 appropriation was
made. The result will probably be
the expenditure of upwards of $780,
600 in the construction of the local
building.
First Term in December.
Mrs Johnson says the first jury
term of the federal court in Pendle-
ton will probably be held here the
first week in December. There will
be no cases tried at that time, how
ever, in which the government is a
party. but only those between indi-
vlduals and over which the govern
ment has jurisdiction. This rule will
probably be changed somewhat after
the federal building is completed and
the court is provided with its own
quarters. Until this building is erect
ed the trials will all occur at the
county court house. Mrs. Johnson
does not believe, however, that there
will be any sessions of the grand jury
here.
The deputy clerk desires all local
and other eastern Oregon attorneys
to send their papers to her instead Of
sending them to Portland as in the
past. Her office hours will be from
10 a. m. until noon and from p. m.
until p, m.

Several thousand dollars annually
is to be saved to the wheat growers
Of Umatilla county as result of the
recent rate reduction ordered by the
Washington state commission, ac-
cording to q member of that COM
mission. A IL 1-2 per cent reduction
has been ordered and as the present
rate from Pendleton to Portland is
8 1-2 cents the reduction will make
difference OF more than a cent a
bushel or a saving Of s55,375 on a
5000, 900 bushel crop.
In view of the Washington decision
the decision of the oregon commission
on the same question will be watch
ed for with all the more interest
After declaring that wheat rates on
the o. r. & n. in oregon will be re-
duced In accordance with the IL 1-2
cent reduction on the Northern Pa
cific in Washington. John C. Law
renee of the Washington state rail-
road commission, went on to say:
"The order OF the commission ap-
plies only to the Northern Pacific,
but we confidently expect the reduced
rates will be met by the o. r. & N,
otherwise shippers at competitive
points will naturally divert all the
grain to the road which will give the
cheapest haul to tidewater markets"
Oregon Rates Must BE Cut.
"The o. II. & N. officials certainly
will not covet such a diversion Of
traffic The grain haul revenue is
big item in o. r. & N earnings.
When the o. r. & N. meets the cut
It will announce tariffs making rates
to Portland Identical with the Taco
ma-Seattle rates ordered on the
Northern Pacific.
"This done, the interstate COM
merce commission rules will apply
which will require that the o. r. &
n. charge no more nor higher rates
from intermediate points in oregon
than the rate from Palouse points to
Portland. In other words, meeting
the cut in Washington means the o.
r. & n. must make lower rates in
oregon. BY relationship of rates this
reduction will extend to all points in
the latter state"
Shippers Route Grain.
During the hearing the railroad Of
ficers contended for time the effect
of this order reducing rates on the
Northern Pacific would be that the
railroads would themselves make
Portland the shipping point terminal,
using the North Bank. This conten-
ton was on the theory that the roads
would thereby use the water grade as
a cheaper cost rate to enable them to
break even on the reduced revenue.
The railroad men soon abandoned
this contention, realizing that the
shipper, not the carrier, fixes the de-
livery point, and that the shippers
will order their grain to the better
market irrespective of whether 1t be
Portland or Puget sounnd, and so long
as rates are identical the shipper will
have no concern in whether the rail-
road is making a long or short haul,
a cheap or an expensive one.
1t is expected here the Northern
Pacific will take an appeal to the

The normal attitude of men toward
death seems to be one of inattention
or evasion. They do not trouble about
IL: they do not want to trouble about
II. and they resent its being called to
their notice. On this point the late
Frederick Myers used to tell story
which | have always thought very IL
Illuminating. In conversation after
dinner he was pressing on his host the
unwelcome question. what he thought
would happen after death. After many
evasions and much recalcitrancy the
reluctant admission was extorted: "Of
course. II you press me, believe that
we shall all enter into eternal bliss;
but wish you wouldn't talk about
such disagreeable subjects" This, l
believe, is typical Of the normal mood
OF most men They don't want to be
worried; and though probably. IL the
question were pressed, they would OBJ
feet to the idea of extinction, they
can hardly be said to desire immor-
tally. Even at the point OF death. 1t
would seem. this attitude is often
aintained-Atlantic.

THE EYE ON CHINESE JUNKS.
Cantonese Legend Explains Why
Apparently Purposeless Sym
Dol IL Placed There.

Few people know why Chinese
junks have an eye painted on the
port side OF the bow. A Cantonese
legend explains the origin OF that
singular custom In a way that is sug-
gestive OF Anglo-Saxon humor.
A Chinese mandarin who lived cen
turtles before the Christian era. find
ing himself In need OF navy. sent
for the royal boat builder and ordered
him to build certain number OF
ships SO the builder drew up plans
and presented them 10 the mandarin.
But the plans evidently did not suit
his majesty. for he flew into a VIC
lent rage and ordered the boat build
er from his presence.
Then how shall build them, your
celestial highness?" he pleaded.
Whereupon the mandarin drew on
one of his slippers and threw il at the
boat builder, who fed from the room.
At the door he turned for a moment,
lust In time to catch the mandarin
winking at his prime minister.
The boat builder picked up the roy
al slipper and used it as a model. and
then painted one eye on its bow to
represent the royal masters wink.
