MAYOR TO FIGHT
! COUNCIL CLIQUE
Indications Are for Break Between
Bre;tmeyer and One Faction
of the Aldermen.

AS result OF the action OF ma
jority of the aldermen present Tuesday
night in voting down the resolution
TO pay the bill OF the committee OF
Fifty, II would not surprise those who
are In touch with city hall politics 10
have an open rupture break out be-
tween Mayor Breitmeyer and the fac
tion OF the council which is headed by
Aid. Gilman and Goeschel.
There is a great deal OF patronage
directly or indirectly at the disposal
of the mayor and this may prove a
potent weapon IL a break cones.
The council Is not now divided on
party lines, the democrats as we'll ss
the republicans being split on most
questions. And the vote on the COM
mittee OF fiftys bill Is not the first
symptom orthe strained condition.
Ever since he took office Mayor
Breitmyeer has manifested his impa-
tience with the Gilman -Goeschel fac
tion for their disposition TO hold up
important matters. He did not omit
TO state his views in regard TO the
long delay In awarding brick and other
material contracts and sent his opin-
ion regarding the delay OF the Michi-
gan Central station site settlement in
a message to the council
There has been anything but
united support OF the mayors policies
among the republican members Of the

\ DREAM OF NOVEMBER FIELDS.

How'd you like to be a-dreamin'
On this day,
Where a shady rivers streamin'
Far away,
Past blue hills. with daisies gleam-
Meadows sweet with May?
How'd you like to be a-layin
On this day,
Where the windy pines are sighin'
Far away?
Where the doves are fieldward flyin
over swamps Of gray?'
Where the hidden vines are clingin'-
Where the birds
Seem to break their hearts with sing
in
Loves own words?
Where sweet bells are ringin'-ring-
in
From the lowin' herds?
o the citys strife an stormin',
Come away
Where the sun the sod is warmin'
Day by day,
An the Lords own hand is formin'
Flowers TO meet the May
There, where many a lonely hill /,
Let us go.

RICHARD WATSON GLIDER.

The following beautiful tdibute to
the late Richard Watson Glider is by
Myrta Lockett Avary. who knew the
editor of The Century we'll:
He was an enemy to graft and wrong.
\ champion of the lowly and the
weak:
a guardian of the dwellings of the
poor
His gates were open when the help
less came his aid to seek.
The cali Of brotherhood was in his
heart;
And it was brotherhood to woman,
too:
His gentleness full many a sister
knew,
And childhood his service had full
part.
He was a singer and prophet. Hark!
The harmonies that parted from h.
Tyre
Float back to us in streams OF fire
As from our sight he passed into the
dark
Into the dark? Nay into the new
light
OF which he sang for others gone
before.

no more,
And where great souls did wait to
welcome him.

THEY WON'T BE HERDED.

In the name of partisanship many
wrongs have been committed. Blind
adherence to partyism even when the
party fame has been invoked for
grossly improper purposes has been
the despair of good and patriotic citi-
zens for many years. Half the ills OF
our country are due to the fact that
people do not think enough for them
selves but allow themselves to be
driven Ike cattle by self appointed
party bosses and party workers. But
for Pendleton at this time
people are unwilling to be herded and
driven as they were of old. They
have learned to think, to discern Is
sues for themselves and 10 Judge of
the fitness of men. Therefore the
plea of partisanship that has been
raised in the mayorality hght will
fall upon deaf ears.

As the matter stands after a brief
hut spirited campaign during which
both sides have been well presented
Mayor Murphy is clearly entitled to
reelection. He is entitled to re-
election not only upon his personal
merits but because he stands for PEN

FOLLOW JUDGE FEE.

When Judge James \. Fee went in
to the fray yesterday there was
something doing" His action broke
the back of the silly and wholly i'm
proper move to inject partisan politics
into the municipal campaign. If that
move ever had any prestige it has none
now.
Judge Fee is a leader of the repub-
uoan party in this city. He is a lead
er of strength, courage and capacity
He has been honored by the repubn,
can party more than once. It was he
who as a presidential elector carried
Oregon's vote for Roosevelt to Wash
ington in 1904.
As member of the republican party
Judge Fee resents the attempt to use
the name Of his party in this election.
He has an eminent right to do so.
Ey his action he has rendered good
service to that party. If the repub,
lican party is to maintain its suprem-
acy and retain the esteem of broad
minded. progressive men it must be
kept free from skullduggery. Shy
sters and petty politicians must not
be allowed to usurp the leadership and
use the name of the party for improp-
er purposes.
Judge Fee has the same right to
object to the use of his party's name
in this election that a good Methods,
would have if he resented the use of
the name of the Methodist church to
forward a questionable scheme. 1t
was his duty to object. Other re-
publicans will do well to follow his
lead. Scores of them are going to do.

A FINAL WORD.

On Monday the people of Pcndleton
viii elect a mayor and other city Of
ficials. The chief fight is being
waged over the mayorality
Since the campaign began, which
properly dates from the time the nom
nations were closed and people knew
for sure what men were to run, the
East Oregonian has supported May
or Murphy. In doing so this paper
has acted upon its own initiative. It's
support was not solicited. It made
no promise to Mayor Murphy or to
any other man or set of men. 1t has
been under obligations to no one.
The East Oregonian runs its own bus
mess as it sees fit. 1t has done this
for 80 years.
In supporting Mayor Murphy for
reelection this paper has been in
fluenced by but one thing-a firm be-
lief, formed after a due investigation,
that of the two men who are running
he is by far the better man for the
place. Mr. Murphy may have short
comings, as all men have. but he is
an honest and sincere advocate ana
worker for the welfare of Pendleton.
He is allied with no interests that will
affect his duty to the people Of the
city. He is of the active, progressive
element that wants to build UP this
city and keep It out IF the hands Of
the scoffers and pessimists who in
their narrowness would make it a
country village.
Mayor Murphy is the candidate of
the progressive party in Pendleton
and just at this juncture it is of es-
pecial Importance that the mayors
chair be filled by one who is of a
progressive nature and is surrounded
by progressive men. A new electric
company is ready to enter Pendleton
with a proposition that promises to
work wonders in the development OF
this city and its tributary country
Capable and practical men who have
investigated the company's plans as
far as they have been disclosed be-
lleve it's enterprise is one Of merit and
that it will do for Pendleton what It
PROMISES to do-establish a traction
system with this city as the base and
the chief beneficiary from that sys-
tenn. Should not that company De
given encoura cement?
Mayor Murphy's opponent is a man
who has been in Pendleton but short
time; he has never been in business
here and has no business interests in
Pendleton now. But little is known
Of him save that he was brought into
the race and has been backed by men
OF the pessimistic type, by men who
have both secretly and openly fought |

pany into this city. Pendleton cannot |
afford to Jet that group OF men obtain |
control of this city.

DON'T HEED THE SLOP.

Very likely the opponents of Mayor
Murphy will have tomorrow mornings
issue Of their organ filled with a var
led assortment Of scurrilous attacks
all reeking with gutter slop. They will
probably make new charges and at
tempt to bring new issues to the
front in hopes that by doing so they
can make a few votes for their can
didate.
But intelligent people will not heed
charges made at the eleventh hour
and too late to be answered. Such
charges are made only by towards
It is needless to say that people of
decent instincts are not won by the
"mudslinging' methods in which the
other local paper has INDUCED. It
has hurled some of its slime at the
editor of this paper. But it would be
waste of time to answer such at
tacks. Besides the editor of this pa
per is not running for office. He is
supporting Mayor Murphy and sup
porting him, not for partisan reasons,
but because he is plainly the be>- man
for the office. None know this bet

SUGGESTS RADICAL CHANGES
CHIEF WAGNER WOULD I'M
PROVE WATER SUPPLY.
SEQUEL to Recent Fire at Georgetown.
New Hydrants and Water
Mains Needed.

The fire department experiences at the
recent fire at Georgetown University
have elected a recommendation from
Chief Wagner that some very radical
steps be taken to improve the water sup
ply and make certain other changes for
the benefit of the general protection
against a conf1agration in the university
buildings.
The chief says that if the engines which
ran to the fire on the second alarm had
put into service they could have drawn
water only from plugs outside the uni
versity grounds; and, even at that, If they
had begun to take water from the out
side, the engines which had reached the
fire first and were pumping away on the
inside of the fence would have found
that the second-alarm engines were draw
ing on the water supply to such an eX-
tent that no engines at all would have
been of any service.
Furthermore, he says that two Of the
fire hydrants on the inside of the uni
versity Enclosure are placed on sort
lawn and one of the fire engines sunk it
self in the lawn until the boiler rest
ed on the grass, and there was trouble
when the horses tried to pull out the
heavy machine for the home trip.

missioners to the matter. Chief Wagner
makes many specific recommendations.

water mains, and changes in the existing
