has shown such an erratic inconsist-
ent course toward international ar
bitration as Roosevelt, former secre-
tary of state, John Foster spoke to-
day on his attituGc toward the Anglo
American arbitration treaty at the
peace conference. Foster said: EARLY
in Roosevelt's public career he dis
played a strong hostility arbitra-

Harrison for having submitted the
Bering Sea matter to arbitration, but
when he assumed presidency he was
first to send the case to the Hague
tribunal and invite other nations to
resort to same court" He cited
other incidents and closed by asking
whether the people could expect this
'erratic hut patriotic citizen to fall
in with the great march of interna-
tional peace and support the meas
ure." Mr.. Roosevelt lately half way
opposed the proposed treaty in an
editorial.

Boston, Mass, May 25.-Co-inci-

ligious discussion in the magazines of

Tufts College has created something
of sensation among the Universalist
headquarters here. President Hamil-

the ministry is a cold business pro-

pulpit should either deliver the goods
or step out. Business plays no ia
vorites," says Prof Hamilton, "and
there is nothing more business like
than the ministry, properly entered
into"
Several of the leading ministers of
Boston have taken issue with Presi-

: City Council Decides to Lay
Seventeen More Blocks in
Near Future
NEW IMPROVEMENT PLAN
WILL RECEIVE TEST
Work Will Be Pushed at Once Pro-
vided Remonstrance Containing
Signatures of so Per Cent of Prop.
erty Owners Is Not Presented-To
BE completed by September 1.

Pendleton will have seventeen more
blocks of paved streets by fall if the
property owners in the district affect
ed approve the action taken by the
city council at it's session last night
By a vote practically unanimous, the
council decided to lay a hard surface
pavement on Court street from the
west line of Main street to the west
line of Ash, a distance of twelve
blocks, on Cottonwood street from
the south line of Water street to the
north line of Webb, a distance of
three blocks, and on Alta street from
the east line of Main to the west line
of Johnson, a distance of two blocks.
Councilman Sharon was the only
member to dissent on the Court street
resolution and even he voted on the
others.
Will Test New Plan.
The action of the council last night
means that the new street improve
ment plan recently adopted by the
voters will be given it's first test. Un-
der its provisions, the city engineer
must now make plans and specifica-
tions of the work in question, make
estimates, determine the boundaries
of the districts, the property which
will be benefited by the Improvements,
and make tentative proportional as.
sessments.
on his completion of this task, he
will then report to the council, and
if his report is approved, notice will
be published and the plans and speci.
fications, estimates of work and cost
and a description of proposed assess
ment districts be placed on file in
the recorders office where citizens
may have free access to them. If
remonstrance containing the sigma
lures of eighty per cent of the proper
ty owners affected is presented with
in ten days thereafter, the council Is
then restrained from taking any fur
ther action and may not again take
up the same proposition for six
months
If no such remonstrance is filed,
the council will then adopt an ordi-
nance, bids will be advertised for
and the contract let. Any objection
or exception to the amount of the
assessment placed against any lot.
part of lot or parcel of land must be
filed within fifteen days after the
first publication of notice and the
council will thereafter meet and sit
as a court to consider these objec-
tions.
Expect to Hurry Work.
Providing the work is not barred
by a remonstrance, the council ex-
poets to have the contracts signed
up within a month and work started
in six weeks If the property own
ers on West Court street and in con-
tiguous territory approve by silence
the paving of that street, and there is
every reason to believe they will, an
effort will be made to rush that work
to completion before the Roundup IN
September.
