YOUN GSCOTCHMAN BUSY
STUDYING WESTERN METHODS

Spokane, Wash.-James Vassle,
native of Rexburghshire, Scotland,
who came to the Northwest in Oc-
tober, 1909, to enter the horticultur-
al department of the Washington
State College at Pullman, southeast
of Spokane, is now studying practical
methods in canning factory at
Sprague, Wash. Vassie was a student
in a medical school at Edingurgh for
three years before coming to this
country. He expressed himself as de-
lighted with the states and expects
to establish himself here "I liked
the study of medicine we'll enough,
he said, but l prefer a life in the
open. Conditions are vastly different
in this country, but l have found peo-
pie of the western world as intelli-
gent, cultured and companionable as
one would ask to find any place.

men to Salem, the Pendleton Round

men to Salem, the Pendleton Round
up was endorsed by the Oregon de-
velopment league as a statewide ad-
vertising proposition. sThough the
meeting was unutterably opposed to
the introduction of resolutions and to
the endorsement of anything which
could be construed as local the Pen
dleton delegates succeeded in getting
resolution introduced and passed
which reads about as follows:
1--WE endorse the Pendleton Round
up as a statewide advertising feature
to attract people to this state and we
are opposed to the duplication of the
Roundup by other cities or commu-
mites as the same would depreciate
and lessen the effect of the advertis-
ing"
The full significance of this resolu-
ton can be realized when it is known
that it was one of three such resolu-
tions offered. The others endorsed
the Astoria Centennial and called up
on the legislature to assist the good
roads movement.
AS the chairman announced that
the Roundup resolution had passed,
someone in the crowd yelled, ''let 'er
buck" whereupon a deafening cheer
went up from the convention.
Gwinn declared this morning that
it is now up to Pendleton to pro-
vide accommodations for the thou
sands of people who will be here next

One Title Market Gone.

Paris.-American women may re-
gret the decision of the Republic of
Portugal to do away with their titles,
for not a few fair daughters of the
United States are married to Portu-
guese noblemen. For instance. the
Baron d'Erlinger, who married Miss
Slidell of Virginia, owes his title to
Portugal.
1t is worthy of note that King Car
los conferred many titles upon bank
ers, and it appears that the Republic
of Portugal, by suppressing titles, is
throwing away a good source Of in
come, for there are still many rich
men seeking for such distinction.

Boy Has Close Call

Levi Ankeley, Jr., the young son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Nesmith Ankeney of
North Main street, had a narrow es-
cape from a serious accident yester-
day. He was playing on the stair and
fell in such a way as to strike his
forehead on the corner of the step.
The flesh was laid open so close to
the eye that it seems remarkable the
eye was missed. Had the corner of
the step struck the eye, the sight
would have been destroyed.

league in Salem, returned home this
morning after having been in the
capital city during the session of the

According to both men they thor
oughly enjoyed their trip to Salem and
they also believe they did some goou
work for the Roundup. At the con-
vention they were known as being
representatives of the Roundup and
during their stay in Salem they i'm
parted much information regarding
Pendleton's show. They took with
them upon their trip a set of the en-
larged pictures taken during the Sep
tember celebration and the views were
a source of decided interest to those
who saw them. They were display
ed at the hotel in Salem and both
Gwinn and Steiwer made use of theiI
well known oratorical powers in ex-
planning the thrills to which spec
tators are subjected while viewing oul
carnival of the strenuous life.

ton each Pendleton man carried E

ORDINANCE VIOLAT0R
TO GET JURY TRIAL

Paul Hubbard was arrested last
week charged with the crime of con-
veying persons in his automobile in the
streets of Hood River in violation of
the city ordinance. f. E. Kreisler
was the prosecuting witness in the
case and it seems that Hubbard car
ried several passengers from the ball
park down town in his automobile on
Memorial Day taking pay for the
same. The ordinance requires persons
keeping an automobile for hire to pay
a license fee of $40 year. At present
there is only one machine paying this
fee and the city officials are expecting
to make test case Of this in order to
find out if the law is good as many
automobiles hire out to take passen-
gers into the valley and do not pay the
license fee. Hubbard asked for jury
trial when he appeared with plea of
not guilty before City Recorder Lam
gille Friday morning and the case was
set for hearing this morning at 10
o'clock.

Optimist Endorses Smith For Governor

The Dalles Optimist has come out
for E. l.. Smith for governor in the
following editorial;
-Four years ago Hon. E. l.. Smith,
of Hood River, was importuned and
petitioned by thousands of people to
allow his name to be used as a candi-
date for nomination for governor, but
he absolutely refused to entertain the
proposition. He was also as strenuously
beseeched to run for congress, but
refused those entreaties also. He
would have been easily elected to
either Office he chose, but he persisted
that he would consider no nomination
save for senator and it will be remem-
breed that he was defeated for that
nomination, mainly for the reason that
he was sick in bed all through the
canvass.
1T is now publicly said that Mr..
Smith will consent to have his name
brought before the coming republican
assembly for the nomination, and we
hope this is rue-though we doubt it.
'Mr. Smith would make an ideal
governor, and under the direction of
his estimable wife we would again
tol, something like the day of the in
cumbency of Governor Moody, who, it
is said, came nearer being the ideal
executive host, and Mrs. Moody the
perfect hostess, than any officials we
ever sent to Salem.
-Four years ago Mrs. Smith told the
writer that she would not consent to
have Mr.. Smith run for the office be-
cause they were not wealthy enough to
entertain in the stlye which she thought
the executive should maintain land she
cited Governor Moody's incumbency as
setting the high water mark, a mark
which she would like to emulate if
they had the means and Mr.. Smith
were fortunate enough to be elected.
But perhaps Mr.. Smiths bank ac-
count has SO grown since then that
Mrs. Smith has been shown by E. l..
that he could go the Moody pace, ard
she has consented to have him become
a candidate. We hope this is true"
In the Rabbitville section of the
Optimist Old Man Bennett said:
There will'be menny men running
for governor this fall, that is they will
think they are running, but most of
EN- will run in walk, for Mister
K. l.. Smith of the town of Hood River
will WIN with hands down. None of
the other fellers will have a look-in
with Mister Smith in the race. We
are mighty glad that the newest
county in the state, which is Hood
River county, should have a governor
among her citizens, but the handwrit-
ing is writ on the wall and f. l.. will
take his sect in Salem as soon as Mis-
ter Benson gives us the job and goes
back into the secretary of state lob.
Rabbitville will stand solid with
both of EN- you betcher life, and that
will be big lift to the both of EN-. -.
