UMAT|LLA COUNTY MARRIAGES
0UTNUMDER DIVORCES IN 1910

If anyone thinks that the institution
of divorce is becoming more popular
in Umatilla county than is the insti-
tuition of marriage, they have but to
consult the records in the office of the
county clerk to be undeceived These
records show that during the year
1910, 32 DEGREES for divorce were
handed down in the local court while
24S couples successfully applied for
licenses to be joined in the holy bonds
of matrimony. This would seem to
indicate that the god of love still holds
the balance Of power in this section
of the state and that the divinity Of
marital discord, despite the new ally
he has found in the affinity germ, is
still but of secondary influence.
These figures show that during the
past year there has been a decided
falling off in the number of divorces
and a decided increase in the num-
Der of marriages. Lawyers in the city
do not attempt to explain the reason
for the former fact, but they do de-
clare that the stringepcy Of the WASH
ington law has greatly swelled the
marriage fees Of this county and 1t is
a fact that considerable number Of

Walla Walla people have secured
their licenses in Pendleton.
December was the banner month
for the elimination of romances, as
there were S3 licenses issued during
that month or an average Of more
than one each day. This would sem
to disprove the theory so popular
among poets and bards that the am

kind hibernate during the winter to
awake from their long slumber with
increased activity in the spring, which
theory was responsible for those oft
quoted lines, TN the spring, when a
young mans fancy lightly turns to
thoughts. of love-" However, there is
some substantiation for that theory in
the fact that the month of May ranks
second in the calendar in the num-
Der of passports issued to the port Of
conjugal felicity, 25 having been
granted. November is the third with
"a while June and October tie with
23 apiece. The following are the
numbers granted in the other months:
January. IA; February. Is; March. Is;
April, Is; July, 10; August, IS, and

PHELPS NAMED FOR

DISTRICT ATTORNEY
WILL SUCCEED BEAN
Portland Rumors Say Steiwer May
Get District Attorneyship but Local
Reports Put S. p. Van Vactor in
Lead for Post.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 3, 1911.
East Oregonian,
Pendleton, Ore.
Phelps appointed judge sixth judi
cial district by Bowerman today.
Looks like Steiwer for district attor-
ney, but chances for Watts good.
UNITED PRESS.
The above message was received at
the office of the East Oregonian and
the first part verifies the many ru-
mors which have been afloat since the
election of Judge H. ]. Bean to the
supreme bench, namely. that District
Attorney Gilbert w. Phelps would be
Beams successor in office. The lat
ter part of the message, however, will
come as a surprise to many people as
Deputy District Attorney Frederick
Steiwer was not considered in the race
inasmuch as he had emphatically de-
MED his candidacy.
In telephone conversation with
the East Oregonian this afternoon,
Acting Governor Jay Bowerman, who
is at present in Condor, denied that
he had as yet made any appointments
and intimated that the announcements
fould not be made until Thursday
when he returned to Salem to wind
up the business of the present state
board.
There can be no further doubt as
to the appointment of Phelps. but
there are many who refuse to be-
lieve that either Steiwer or Watts will
land the other plum, and these same
men are equally emphatic in declar-
ing that neither will it fall to any one
of the other candidates who have fig
ured in press conjectures, namely
Charles ]. Ferguson of this city, S. F.
Wilson Of Athena or c. c. Woodson

will be the chosen one. This man Is
none other than Sam P. Van vactor,
the we'll known attorney of Heppner.
Van vactor Is q democrat but Is a per-

said, was favored by the governor
