LOCAL INSURANCE
RATES LOWERED

New rate books, giving the new in
surance ratings for the city of Pen
dleton were received this morning by
the local insurance representatives.
These are important in that they an
nounce for the first time the exact
amount of the reductions made on in
surance for Pendleton property as a
result of the recent Investigations car
ried on by representatives of the in
surance adjusters.
In the business section of the city,
only those buildings which have been
rewired in accordance with the de-
mands of the adjusters have been CIV
en- reductions. These amount to from
10 to 10 per cent. The reduction for
dwelling houses is % per cent while
that for detached dwellings is SO 1-3
per cent.
1t will thus be seen that those per-
sons who have refused to rewire their
buildings will not profit by the re-
cent reductions until they conform
to the requirements of the association.
The change in the rates do not affect
the poor risks.

LORINIER Is ELECTED
SENATOR IN ILLINOIS

Springfield. H., May 26.-Congress-
man William Lorimer, once a street
car driver in Chicago, was today elect
ed United States senator. The legis-
lature has been deadlocked for sever
al weeks.
Lorimer is one Of the strongest poll
iticians in illinois, and probably has
bigger following than any Other.
While driving the street car he mixed
in politics, finally becoming such a
political power that he resigned his
job to devote his entire time to his
new calling. He represented his dis
trict in congress for many years, and
was so popular that, although repub-
lican, nearly all democrats of the dis
trict voted for him. thereby insuring
his election. He has a magnificent
