SOAKING RAIN IS
MORE THAN WELCOME

"A blessing undisguised," is the way
the drenching rain which has been
falling all day is generally character
lied and there is much elation among
the growers of grain. To them II
means more bushels to the -acre In
the 1912 crop and their only wish Is
that it will continue to fall for some
days.
While all parts of the county VIII
share in the benefits to be derived
from this precip taticu of moisture,
the land north of the city in the Cold
Springs district will receive special
value from the downpour. The light
rains which have fallen hereabouts
during the fall have not extended In
to the Cold Springs country and, IN
consequence, the soil has become ex-
ceedingly dry and farmers in that
section have been praying fervently
for a big soaking rain such as is be-
ing received today.
The ra n began about eight O'CLOCK
this morning and in n few hours had
developed into a steady downpoul
which has continued up to press time

cording to parties who have seen
Burgess petition he has made almost
no headway with it among local busi-
ness men who understand the sub
ject and were present at the club
meeting Meny to whom the paper

gust and discouraged the move. 9th
ers to whom the paper was presented

was made to them that it was a move
in behalf of Birch creek settlers. 9th
er businessmen, to whom the paper
was presented, were openly threaten
ed with loss of business if they did
not sign it, so it is declared.
Is Shyster Move.
Among prom.aent business men
and members of the Commercial club
Senator Burgess is being denounced
| today in unmeasured terms. He is
| harshly roasted for taking such
course after the Commercial club had
| listened so intently to both sides of
the controversy and had expressed its
| sentiments in such a decisive way
While Burgess processes to act in be-
| half of Birch creek settlers it is
pointed out that his aim is really to
discredit the Commtrci club in it's
| endorsement of the Umatilla extern
| sion. In support of this it is pointed
| out that some substantial farmers
near the city do not want the govern
ment to withdraw its adjudication
| suits and are strictly opposed to Bur-
| CESS in his present scheme. This be-
| ing the ca e it would be manifestly
| improper for the Commercial club to
ask the government to drop it's adjudi-
| cation suits.
Parties to whom Burgess has talk
! ed while upon his guerilla raid declare
| he openly admits that he knows there
! is no possibility whatever of getting
the government to drop the adjudica-
| ton suits. 1t is virtually admitted
that the whole scheme is a fight for
| revenge. To one man Burgess admit
ted he was after Dan p Smythe,"
who as president of he Commercial
club presided during re sessions re-
Gently held. 1t is presumed he hopes
10 MT at Snlythe by seemingly dlScred-
! iting the club. This despite the fact
| that it was current comment among
| people of all classes that a. president
! of the club during the controversy
| Mr.. Smythe held rigidly to a fair and
| square policy with reference to both
! participants.
| 1t is understood that in the petition
! Burgess has been circulating il is set
! forth that the resolutions wired to
President Taft were not really en-
! dorsed by the club with but one dis
senting vote. This charge has arous-
/ ed the ire of Secretary Jack Keefe,
who filed the messages to the presi-
| dent. Last evening Keefe roundly
| scored Burgess for his course and
! likewise paid his compliments to
! Frank Sloan of Stanfield who assist

LABOR LEADER WILL
SQUEAL ON HIGHERUPS
Sensational Developments Are Expect
ed Any Moment in Federal Probe
of Dynamitings.

Los Angeles, Dec 15.-Rumors are
rife today that a prominent San
Francisco labor leader is to confess
completely in the Times dynamiting
case. 1t is said he is holding out for
immunity in case ne involves others
higher up. District Attorney Fred
ericks would not discuss the matter
although he admitted that a sensa-
tional development is expected soon.
The local federal grand jury re-
sumes its Investigations this after
noon.
The chief of county detectives filed
a formal notice today that he would
claim half the rewards offered for the
conviction of the Times dynamiters.
The Burns Detective agency esti-
mates the rewards will aggregate
$4,000. Detective Browne will waive
any rights to the rewards offered for
the arrests

Refusal of Presidential Pri-
mary Calls Forth a Scath-
ing Review.
TAFT FACTION TO BLAME
Says Result, So Far, Is Ambiguous
and Unintelligible Formulation for
National Convention - Primaries
May Hurt California PrOgressives.

Sacramento, Calf, Dec. 15-In a
statement which scathingly reviews
the refusal 0. the republican national
committee to allow a presidential pri-
mary and which may result in the ex-
clusion of delegations elected by the
people, Governor Johnson today de-
clared that California progressives
will stand on the principle that in
the selection of a president, as in all
matters the people should rule. ut
is expected that the legislature will
pass a law to enable Californians to
make their own presidential selec-
tion.
Governor Johnson said the nation
al committee is in the hands of reac-
tionaries. at has formulated for the
national convention all that is am
blguous and untelligible. The design
of the call seems to be either to ig-
more the laws that are in force in the
progressive states, providing for pres
identical primaries, or to render a way
easy 70 ignoring the law in the fu-
ture.
Senator Borah asked the national
committee to adopt a provision that
the delegates might be chosen by a
direct vote of the republican electors
and the reactionary national commit
tee, representing Mr.. Taft, the advo-
Gates OF whom In California were
begging p'teously for. a presidential
preference primary a month ago. ov-
erwhelmingly defeated the Borah mo-
tion. that delegates might be directly
elected. This reversal justifes fully
the calling of a special session of the
legislature"
He concludes by a statement that
the primar es might hurt the progress
sives in California now. but neverthe-
less. they must stand by the prin-
ciple OF peoples rule"
johnson in his statement inserted
n letter from Senator La Toilette
presidential candidate, in which La
Toilette told Johnson to enact the
presidential primary even though II
might wreck La Follette's chances
because they wanted to stand for the
principle.

ALDERMAN-ELECT NOT
A CITIZEN OF u. S.
John Siebert Files Nat
uralizatiOn Papers
Today
Attorneys say This Fact Makes Elec.
ton Null and Void and Grave Com
piications are Promised.

Can a man who is not citizen OF
the United States be elected to a city
office and, if elected, can he take his
seat? This is a question which arose
today when John Seibert, who defeat
ed Valentine Stroble present incum-
bent, in race for seat in the coun-
Gil from the third ward, appeared at
the office of the county clerk and filed
his petition for final naturalization
papers. He filed his declaration of
becoming citizen in 1884 but has
never completed the legal require
ments.
Deputy District Attorney w. c. f.
Pruitt expressed himself positively on
the matter, declaring that Seibert is
not qualified to accept the position to
which he was elected. Mr.. Pruitt was
stenographer in the office of the
county clerk for several years and be-
came thoroughly familiar with the
naturalization laws and it is upon this
knowledge that he bases his opinion.
You may quote me as saying that
I do not believe Mr.. Seibert was en-
titled to be a candidate" he said.
'and I am positive he cannot legally
from the fact that he was not a citi-
zen at the time of his election, the
fact that his first declaration was
filed in 1884 disqualifies him even to
vote. The naturalization laws speci-
fically declare that unless a man files
his final papers within seven years
after he files his declaration, his dec
laration shall become void. That
means that Mr.. Seibert would have to
begin all over again"
City Attorney Raley was disinclined
to pass upon the matter without first
looking up the law on the case and
Circuit Judge Phelps also declined to
express himself for the reason that il
the matter should be taken into the
courts he might be called upon to rem
der a decision.
In his petition for final papers, Mr.
Siebert gives his native land as Ger
many. Whether or not there will be
any contest made on this point is yet
uncertain, but Mr.. Stroble has many
friends who would like to see him re-
tain his seat in the aldermanic cham
Der.

.FORGER CONFESSES 5
MINUTES AFTER JOB
Chinese Restaurantuer Is
Wictimized BY -
Lab0rer
william Spangler, Branch Asylum
Employe, Uses Other Names I'm
Circulating BAD Checks.

1t took Wi liam l.. Spangler alias
William l.. Steward alias william l..
Johnson just five minutes to break
into Jail after he had passed a bad
check upon the Chinese proprietor of
the Horseshoe restaurant last even
ing. He made out check upon the
American National bank for $10.15
and rendered it in payment for his
meal. 1t was received and the change
returned to him, after which he walk
ed out onto the street, pleased with
his success.
1t happened, however, that anoth-
er customer witnessed the transac-
ton and was satisfied that the China
man was the victim of bogus check
man. Hurrying to the police station,
he notified the officers and Chief Cur
dane and Officer Kearney had the
man in their custody within a few
minutes. Another check made out
on the same bank for s10.17 was
found in his possession.
He admits his guilt but is not suf-
ficiently contrite to suffer his pun
shment willingly. While being es-
corted to the city bastile, he tried
many ruses by which he hoped to give
his guardians the slip, but none OF
them were successful.
To one of the checks he had sign
ed the name "William L. Johnson
and to the other William l.. Steward
but he declares his real name is Will
liam L. Spangler. Under the last
name he has been working for some
time at the branch asylum and was
recently the butt of a joke hold-ur
perpetrated by his fellow laborers.
He was transferred to the county
Jail this forenoon to await his hear
ing.

R. R. Grants Special Rate on
This Commodity for Fuel
to This City.
ANNOUNCE OTHER PLANS
Newsgathcrer That PendletOn
Branch of State Institution Is to Be
Finest They Have Ever Constructed

An announcement of much signifi-
canoe to Pendleton was made yester-
day by Captain Charles A. Murphy
superintendent for the architect at
the branch asylum work, when he
stated that crude oil will be used ex-
clusively as fuel for the new state in
stitution. He declared the state had
secured a special rate on this COM
modify from the railroad company
which would make it as cheap for use
as any other fuel.
The announcement is regarded as
important because it means the en-
trance of crude oil into the local field
to compete with coal and wood and,
further, because 1t might mean cheap
er gas. Officials of the gas company
have declared in the past that the
principal objection to the reduction
in their rates was the refusal of the
railroad company to grant special
rates on crude oil.
Other Announcements Made.
This was only one of the many an
nouncements made yesterday by Su-
perintendent Murphy in explaining
! the plans and specifications of the
branch asylum to a representative OF
the East Oregonian. One of the
noteworthy features of the construc-
| ton work on the new institution is
! the provision being made for the fu-
ture. The laundry, the power house,
the kitchen, the offices and all util-
! ity buildings and facilities are de-
signed to accommodate a much larger
number of patients than is anticipat-
ed during the first few years, and the
wards are so arranged that additional
wards may be added on without mar
ring the architectural beauty of the
! buildings. While these provisions will
! increase the original per capita cost
! of the institution, they will be the
means of saving the state much mon
| ey in the future.
Excellent Sanitary Precautions.
Special attention is being paid to
Isanitation in the different buildings.
! BY means of a gigantic fan in the
power house all fumes from the kitch-
en- and toilets will be drawn into the
| l65 foot stack which is to be con-
structed in connection with the pow
el plant. The drinking cup will not
| find place in the institution but

will quench their thirst at bubbling
