With the required sum of $4,000
now raised and with more names still
being added to the subscription list,
the traction movement has succeeded.
Pendleton Is now in line to secure
traction system and at this time in
terurban feeder lines are promised,
connecting Pendleton with the west
end country and likewise with the
southern end of the county.
1t was jubilant committee that as
sembled in the council chamber at
the city hall at o'clock last evening.
The meeting was held at the CONSUL
sion of several hours of hard solicit
ing and during which nearly $4,000
was raised. The meeting had been
called for the purpose of taking up the
work of getting the remainder of the
fund. However, the subscription had
been run up to a figure slightly above
the $4,000 mark when the committee
assembled.
But though the committee had Sc
cured the needed $500 1t was de-
cided to continue the work OF solicita-
tion so as to permit others desiring
to sign to do so. However. from this
time on the burden OF raising the re-
mainder OF the $4,000 fund devolves
upon the traction company itself. Ac-
cording to ID. Fitz Gerald, the align
ment of the road will be used to in
duce subscriptions.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon
DR.. Smith presided and after thank
ing the members of the committee. for
the hard work done, gave the commit
tee the substance of talk he had
previously held with Mr.. FitzGerald
and in which the latter had consented
to proceed with the work on the COM
pletion OF the $4,000 fund. Mr..
FitzGerald, arriving at the committee
room a moment later, corroborated
this statement
VIII Start at Once.
According to Mr.. Fitz Gerald his
company is ready to start construc-
ton work almost at once. An engi-
neer was sent here from Walla Walla
this morning but owing to the snow
was sent back to the Garden City.
Survey work will probably be taken
up next week
His company has contracted for So
miles of Steel according to Mr.. Fitz
Gerald This steel. is to arrive in
three months installments, eight miles
OF steel coming at each shipment. 1t
is the intention of the company not
only to construct it's six miles of track
IN and about this city but also to i'm
mediately throw out interurban lines.
Over the interurban trackage as well
as over the local lines the gasoline
electric cars will be operated pend
ing the development of the company's
power plant.
Before the committee last evening
Mr.. Fitz Gerald stated that the COM
panys first interurban extension will
be to the west end country. The sec
ond will be to Ukiah in the south
end of the county. He declared
against the construction of a road
from here to Athena.
VIII Hold Banquet.
As a finale to the meeting last eve
ming, DR.. C. ]. Smith suggested that
on the evening OF the installation OF
the new officers of the Commercial
association big "get together" BAN
ouet be held to celebrate the success
of tlfe traction movement. The idea
met with general approval and upon
motion a committee composed of Leon
Cohen. r. Alexander and Frank o.

STANDARD PARTS
FOR FORD CARS
William HughsOn Tells of the
Elaborate System Used by
the Big Factory

The average citizen. the motor enthu-
siast. even the man who owns his car,
does not stop to think of the tremen-
dous extent of the automobile business.
AS an example of the immensity of
system and order it requires may be
mentioned that 40 complete automo-
biles can be assembled within short
notice from the parts carried by the
New York branch of the Ford motor
company. This is for but one model,
however. that which had its birth in
1909, but added to this parts of all the
Ford models dating back to 1903 can be
as easily obtained. In speaking of
this yesterday William L. Hughson of
the Standard motor car company said:
1T is comfortable feeling to know
that if a car meets with an accident or
a part is lost or broken it can be re-
placed in as short time as it takes
to send a telegram and have the de-
sired part shipped by express, with no
laying up of a car for long time while
part is being made. This would
hardly do for doctor to have to put
up with if he had but one car. and this
may De one duNd NdSt tidl DlSSlClduS
see in the Ford, for there are many
men Of the profession in the ranks of
Ford owners.
Nothing irritates an owner of car
as much as to have his car laid up just
when he wants to use it, and he al
ways wants to use it when it is laid
up. He may have important business
and there is his car waiting for weeks
for some new part or he may want to

of l27 Democrats, 163 Republicans
and one Socialist. This is not the
greatest change the House has known
IN 1890 the Republican majority of

MAY REMOVE
LIGHTS FROM
COURT HOUSE
COUNCIL IN FAVOR OF PARCEL
ING ARC LAMPS ON
STREET CORNERS IN
VICINITY
Old Landmark Will be Removed if
Change Is Made-Lights Can
Be Seen for
Miles.

1t is more than probable that the
three electric are lamps, which have
hung ON the tower of the court house
ever since electric lights we're in
stalled in Plymouth, will be removed.
1.-THE Court House Light, as this
battery of lamps has been called is
always the first signal Of distant
Plymouth to the night traveller, driv-
ing toward this city, and on clear
nights can been seen for miles around
the city, i'll every direction.
The reason for taking the lights
down, after all of these years, is be-
cause of their extreme height, they
scatter their light too much, and do
| little good in the immediate vicinity
of the court house. AS a result of
this condition for several years, resi-
dents on north Center, Walnut Jefftr-
son streets, aud others within a cou-
pie Of blocks, have complained of
the lack of light on the streets. In
the immediate vicinity of the old and
new Catholic churches, the need of
light has been more sharply felt, and
for several months a petition has
been before the council, asking for a
light on the corner of Center and
Monroe streets. This point is only
one block from the court house, but
because of trees and intervening
buildings, no light reaches this neigh
borhood. Since the new church has
arisen even less light reaches Monroe
street. 1t is evident that the court
house lights must come down, to
earth. Councilman Frank Vangilder
chairman of the electric light commit
tee. is in favor of removing the lamps
and parcelipg them out to the nearby
street corners. The council Monday
evening, unanimously expressed it
self, IN favor of the change.
They will investigate until the next
meeting which is Dec. 18th, and at
that time, no doubt will order the
change.
No doubt, a large number of local
residents will attach sentimentality
to the removal of the lamps which
have characterized Plymouth because
of the fact that the lights were visi-
BILE at such great distance from the
city after night. The light is visi-
BILE from almost every railroad train,
miles outside of the city, and thou
sands coming to Plymouth have ex-
| claimed "There is the court house
