mayor, attend to the circulation of
the papers. This task was accepted
by Mr., Murphy and the special COM
mittee viewed its work as having been
completed.
However, much lethergy was shown
in the matter of circulating the petit
tions. John HALEY, jr.. circulated the
papers Saturday and secured some 40
signers. No further work was then
done until yesterday afternoon when
a short lived effort was made to se-
cure the remainder Of the 200 sign
ers needed. AS a result the time was
allowed to expire without the petit
tons being filed with the recorder.
According to a statement made the
East Oregonian by John HALEY, jr.,
he found the saloonmen generally op-
posed to the plan and they refused to
sign the petitions Many prohibit
tionsts took the same view Of the
movement and refused to sign. He
estimates that one out Of every three
men whom he solicited refused to
sign. However. even at this IL is evil
dent that a sufficient number OF
signers could have been secured had
a more vigorous effort been made.

CONGRESSMAN HAW[EY WILL
HELP EXTEND RECLAMATION

said that a previous engagement in
the Willamette valley made it impos-
sible for him to stop, though he will
be passing through here on the day
the convention opens.
Says His District Is Prosperous.
Hawley has been entirely over his
district during the summer vacation,
strengthening his political fences, and
he declares that every part of his
district is in a prosperous condition
and is developing rapidly. He point
ed with pride to the fact that box
of apples sold at Albany recently for
$21.50 and intimated that the fruit
growers in Ellis district would have
to go out and get a reputation. But
he said 1t is in southern Oregon
where the greatest strides are being
made in development In the Rogue
and Umpqua river valleys there has
been a great upbuilding of the fruit
growing industry while in that part of
his district which is east of the Cas-
cade mountains, dry farming has
made wonderful progress and is rend-
ering a great transformation in the
character and prosperity of the coun-
try. He says he recently visited a
section Of his district in the klamath
country which recently produced
nothing but sage brush and jackrab-
bits and which was considered Nof no
value for anything else, that isNnow
producing good crops of wheat under
scientific dry farming methods.

"I shall certainly be glad to co-op-
crate with Congressman Ellis in any
effort he may make for an extension
OF the Umatllla reclamation project,
declared Congressman w. c. Hawley
Of the first district, as he passed
through the city last evening on his
way to Denver to attend the meeting
OF the head managers of the Wood
men of the World. He had been told
that an invitation had been sent him
to meet with the other members or
the oregon congressional delegation
in this city for conference on the
move to work for an extension of the
Umatilla project. He said that II pos
sible he would be g,ad to attend the
conference, but that in any event his
cooperation could be depended upon.
VIII Pass Through Tuesday.
Congressman Hawley will only be
in Denver until Sunday night, at
which time he will start on his re-
turn trip, passing through Pendleton
on train No. 7, Tuesday noon. Then
unless he comes in the meantime his
next visit to Pendleton will be when
he passes through on his way to
Washington to attend the winter ses-
sion of congress. This will probably
be November 27 or 28.

second district expressed regret at his
inability to attend the Woolgrowers'

THIRD PARTY" PETITIONS
LACK SUFFICIENT S|CNERS

At the coming city election the
people of Pendleton will not have an
opportunity to vote whether or not
they favor the third party" plan for
the regulation of the liquor business.
Next year when the liquor question
is again voreG upon, if it is voted up
on, the people will again have to
choose between prohibition and blind
pigs upon one hand and unlimited,
unrestrained saloons upon the other.
This situation has been brought
about through the failure to circulate
and file the petitions calling for the
submission of the third party" plan
at the coming city election. The time
for filing the petitions expired last
night and at that time the petitions
still lacked much of having the ne
cessary number of signers.
When the work of the special COM
mittee which drafted the close regu-
lation or third party plan was com
pleted last week four petitions were
drafted for circulation. The petitions
were handed by the chairman of the
committee to Mayor Murphy on
Thursday with request that he, the

ATTORNEYS SORE
At SUPREME COURT
NEW ORDERS PROMULGATED
WITHOUT PREVIOUS NOTICE
New SN of RulCE Given Out Orally
This Morning Without Any Inu-
nation cforehand-Lawyers Do
Not Object to Changes, But Think
Action of Court Unfair.

The supreme court of the state of
oregon is now in bad favor with the
members of the eastern Oregon bar.
The cause for the dissatisfaction is
the promulgating of a new set Of
rules for the government of cases be-
fore the court and the enforcement
of these rules at this term of court
without the attorneys having been
given any previous intimation of the
changes. The rules were promulgat-
ed orally from the bench and the at
torneys have not even yet been fur
nished with copies of them.
The attorneys do not object TO the
changes in the rules. but they do
think it decidedly unfair for the court
to insist on their enforcement at this
tine when they We're lead to believe
that the same rules which have OBJ
tanned in the past would still hold.
From the ruling made today it is
evident that hereafter there will be
few if any eastern Oregon cases
transferred to Salem for argument
1t is also evident that attorneys will
not be permitted to make their ar
guments and then file their briefs
later.
Another important change is the
limiting of the time for arguments to
two hours. The attorney for the ap-
pellant will be allowed 45 minutes in
which to open the case. the attorney
for the respondent will be allowed
an hour and then the appellant at
torney will have 10 minutes in which
to close This ruling will tend to

New Orleans, Nov. Adopting
President Tafts suggestion that the
time for oratory was past, the lakes

ton last night decided to send 500
lobbyists to Washington to demand
that congress deepen the Mississippi
river.
a resolution to that effect, offered
by David r. Fra7o'7 of Missouri,
was adopted Il ~ .:
Resolved that csident of the
lakes to the gulf deep waterways as
sociation be requested to appoint 500
delegates from our organization to
visit Washington to present to the

the heads OF our government the res
olutions adopted by this convention
and at the same time to act as dele
gates to the rivers and harbors con-
gress to be held in that city Decem-
Der S, and TO-"
There was silence for a moment
after the resolution was read. The
lobby idea apparently shocked many
delegates for the moment. Then
somebody turned loose an old fash
ioned rebel yell and the resolution
was adopted with whoop. In the
confusion It IS doubtful if ten dele
gates knew the regular report of the
resolutions committee had been
adopted.
