PROPOSED BONDS CANCELLED
Intere sting tMeeting Held in Masonic
 tiaII-ManY Voters Present.

Pursuant to call of the ,s.Oommon Council of Nogeles. a..public meeting. which was largely attended by voters of NogsleF, was held at Masonic Hall last "Wednesday evening. to discuss pro and cos, the bend proposition which will come before the NoRales taxpayers next Wednesday, March 2nd.
 Many interesting, entertaining speakers discussed the proposition, among whom were Mayor J T Brick wood, En gineer W P Bullock. President Ephraim of the Nogales Water Co.,, Bracey Curtis, cashier of the First National Bank of Nogsles; Editor A. T. Bird of the Oasis. E iitor E J. Pellegrin of the Times and w. Oeerton. agent for Wells Fargo & Oo.
 ca account of the hasty action of the city council in selling the proposed issue of the sewer bonds, there has been disposition to criticiss that hon. orable body by many taxpayers who otherwise would ia vor the sewer, which everybody here knows is mighty badly needed on both sides of the internat- ional line
 In order to show good faith with the people they have 80 ably rep reiented in the past. the city fathers asked the bond buyers to cancil the contract for--the proposed bonds. and the request was granted
 The following communication from Mr. Heury 0. UIen, Jr., President of the U!eD, Sutherlin & Go, of Chi- cago, who came here from Los An geles in connection with the proposi- ;ioD, was read:

DRUM THEM OUT.

On the first Tuesday in February
occurs the election of officers in the
Commercial association. 1t will be an
important election, for the president
OF the Commercial association is an
important factor in the work that is
done for the advancement Of the city.
For the coming year especially a
strong man should be at the head of
the association. During the admin
istration of President Moore some
very valuable work has been done and
some big things are still underway.
But the coming year promises to be
even buster than the past and the
Commercial association should get in
trim to do it's duty. Seek out good,
active and progressive men for Of
ficers Of the association, especially
for the presidency. Drum out the
candidates. The more there are in
the field the better.

will be done regardless of what hap
pens to the Washington Oregon COM
pany. Should that company fail its
line will still be in existence. Other
people will take the line and operate
ii, Even should the Walla Walla
river so dry and thus the company
lose its source of power we could still
so ahead. Pendleton can get power
from the Umatilla river or from the
John Day river But of course it Is
not probable that the Washington
Oregon company will fail or that the
Walla Walla river will go dry. The
allusion to these remote contingent
cies is made merely to show that the
essential thing from Pendleton
is to get the interurban
system started. We can trust to the
future to get the work completed.
Think this matter over seriously

THE AMERICAN WAY.

The manager of the works had a
story. He had come here at sixteen,
with crude country school educa-
tion, and had gone on the night gang
He, too. had caught the spirit of the
place. But he had used his American
mind-watching, studying, thinking
every detail out And now at thirty
five he had reached the top.
I sat with him one day at the head
of a long U-shaped table. Around
1t were sitting about sixty men: Ger
mans. Scotch, Irish, Swedes, Ameri-
cans, each man in charge of some
part of the grimy square mile of
buildings. Luncheon quickly de-
spatched, they lit cigars and pipes
and then to business. Behind the
manager, his secretary (writ1ng in
shorthandD was busy every moment.
The leaders questions were sharp to
the point, searching every man and
every department. AS he spoke he
seemed to bring each mill or shop
before his eyes so intimate was his
knowledge of every machine or fur
nace-its exact position. time of SER
vice, working power. sAnd he had the
same knowledge of the men

of eighteen pay off 5000 men in thir-

GET THE SYSTEM STARTED.

In connection with the Washington
Oregon company's enterprise the fea-
ture of big significance is the fact
that the company proposes to start up
on the establishment of an interurban
traction system with Pendleton as the
center or base of operations. The six
miles of line to be built and operated
within the city and Immediate vicin-
ity will be the nucleus of the pro-
posed system. 1t will not be merely
local street car line.
Do you realize the importance of
having interurban lines running out
from the city into different parts of
its tributary territory? Look at the
geography Of this section of Oregon.
If you are familiar with the country
and with the conditions that exist
you know that the close vicinity of
Pendleton is sparsely populated. In
time this country may become more
closely peopled. especially so if some
of the land can be irrigated. as seems
possible. But Pendleton cannot afford
to rely upon its immediate territory.
II it does the people who are now here
will become old and gray while wait
ing for the city to grow beyond its
present confines.
II Pendleton is to really go forward
the city must reach out after new
business. Pendleton is fortunate IN
that while its immediate vicinity is
sparsely settled yet the city has an
immense tributary territory that is
Just now being developed. The city
should lay plans for getting the busi-
ness Of this territory. There is but
one way 10 do this and that is by ell
minating distance through the estab-
lishment Of rapid transit lines. A
line is needed from Pendleton to the
west end Of the county and to the Co
lumbia: a line is needed to connect
the weston-Athena country with this
city; line is needed from Pendle-
ton out into the John Day valley and
a line across to Heppner woull be
valuable.
Now the East Oregonian is not say
ing that the washington-Oregon COM
pany is going to build all these inter-
urban lines. The2company only agrees
to build so miles of interurban line.
During the first two years the COM
pany will be obliged merely to build
and electrify six miles Of line with
in this city and vicinity.
But the company, II 1t carries out
its plans and promises. will get the
good work started. Undoubtedly the
work will then be carried on andsthe
interurban system extended. This

CURIOUS EPITAPHS.

Among the 1900 epitaphs collect
ed by Ernest r. Suffling in "Epitaph-

mems. Grimaldi off the stage was
said to be a sufferer from melan-
chola. 1t will be remembered that
going to physician on one occasion
he described his case. when the wor-
thy doctor briskly told him to shake
off the feeling. Go and see Grimaldi,
and if it does not cure you your case
is indeed hopeless" Alas" said the
poor sufferer, II am Grimaldi" His
epitaph reads, Here Am t.

finally it was cut to "Thorpe's Corpse"

on wives. Here's one from INVERSION

SAN FRANCIsCo's VICTORY.

Last Friday the people of San
Francisco ended notable contro-
versy by vsting overwhelmingly for
a municipality owned mountain wa
ter supply. They voted a $4,000
600 bond issue to provide for a water
system that will bring $4,000. 900 gall
Ions of water daily from uncontami-
lumne water shed in the Sierra Ne
vada mountains. The voters adopted
what has been commonly called the
Hetch Hetchey plan and at the same
time they voted down a proposition
to purchase for the sum of $4,000, 900
the Spring Valley plant The present
water system, owned by private cor
poration.
The voting Friday closed a contro-
versy that has been on for virtually
40 years. Way backain 1871 enterpris-
ing people in san Francisco began to
plan for mountain water supply to
be owned by the city. On four diff
ferent occasions efforts were made to
get a municipal system but each time
the Spring Valley corporation sue
ceeded in blocking the move. Then
the company became arrogant. The
directors refused to improve the sys-
ply for san Francisco. The consump-
tion of water had to be limited at
times in order to maintain proper
supply for fire fighting purposes. As
a last resort the city supervisors Of
fered to pay the company s25O,OOO per
annum more for water if the increas-
ed income would be used for improv-
ing the system. The directors would
not agree to use the Increased in
come for any other purpose than to
pay dividends.
As result of this poor service and
arrogance on the part of the corpor-
alton the people of San Francisco
handed it, to the Spring Valley
company Friday. BY a vote of 32,-
600 they authorized bonds for the
Hetch Hetchey proposition and there
were but 1407 votes against it. At
the same time the proposition of buy
ing the Spring Valley plant failed
through lacking 1888 votes of the
necessary two-thirds endorsement.
Seemingly the company win be left
with a s35,OOO,OOO plant upon their
hands.
The Hetch Hetchey scheme also
embraces an electric power and
transmission plant. The plant will
generate enough power to pump co.
600, 900 gallons of water daily over
the 700 foot elevation at Altamount
Pass and in addition will furnish
enough electricity to light san Fran
cisco and perhaps to run its street
railways.
San Francisco grew tired of having
public utilities operated in the inter-
est Of private corporations rather
than in behalf of the public. So the
city has gone into business for itself.

faro trains because they charge extra for
long distance passengers who want to
make quick time. it is the rule to give
each passenger a dollar an hour as a
rebate for every hour the train is be-
hind time. Last week between New York
and Chicago one Of these trains was so
hampered by the continuous snow
storms that it did not arrive at its des-
tination until twelve hours behind sched-
ule time. II was twelve hours late and
there were sevonty passengers on board.
You can figure it out for yourself how
much the railroad company paid back
to tho passengers. Just eight hundred
and forty dollars. Where is the profit
n running a train in that fashion,"
In an argument before the Secretary OF
Internal Affairs several years ago on
the matter of compelling all railroads
to cut down their passenger fares to
two cents a mile, General Passenger
Agent Wood, of the Pennsylvania Railroad
company. who appeared against the
proposition, made the astonishing asser-
tion that the passenger transportation
