Ed Corse bears the distinction of be-
ing the first marshal of Stanfield.
Heretofore, that office has never been

Stanfield still remains in the dry
column as from the day of her birth,
the efforts of the vets to secure
saloons failing by 81 votes
The new proposed charter also went
down to defeat, although the general
sentiment seemed to be in favor of it.
Because, however, the ring" by which
name the administration has been
known, favored its adoption. an active
opposition sprung up which grew
strong enough to kill the charter.
Women Turn Out Strong
The women took advantage of theil
new right of franchise and turned out
to the polls strong. nearly one hall
of the $50 votes cast being by the
fair sex. To Mrs. c. w. Connor, ar
dent w. G. T, u. worker, went the
honor of being the first woman to cast
a ballot. Mrs. Connor, however, ex-
emplified the fact that women are not
clearly acquainted with all of the ell
ection laws for nearly the entire da!
she ran an auto to and from the polls

GALE CAUSES
MUCH DAMAGE
HIGH WIND WORKS HAVOC
Storm OF Yesterday Causes More
damage Than at First Believed
Small Buildings Are UnrOofed and
Fences Are Blown Over-Chinese
Is Injured.

Reports coming in from different
parts of the city and county indicate
that the gale which blew fiercely for
short while yesterday afternoon did
more havoc than was at first thought.
Everywhere, there are signs of the
violent passage of old Aeolus. Fences
and billboards are prostrated, wagons
overturned, limbs broken from trees
and many small buildings unroofed.
Out on the reservation where the
wind got a clear sweep, many hay
stacks We're moved from their foun-
rations.
Probably the heaviest damage done
in Pendleton was to the new feed yard
being built by Sam Bitner in connec-
ion with the Alta House. The room
which covered a part of the east end
of the enclosure 64xS6 feet in dimen'
sions was lifted from its fastening
and doubled back, crashing on the
other side of the enclosure. The up
rights were split in twain and ever
the concrete wall was cracked, sc
great was the force of the wind.
A cook wagon just pack of the feed
yard was turned over on its side
Norbourne Berkeley brought back the
news from Nolin that a load of cord
wood to which six mule team was
hitched was blown over near there
and the animals badly frightened. A
number of reports show that several
drivers, fearing a like accident, jump
ed from their wagons and laid flat
on the ground. Even freight train
was stopped near Mission until after
the blow.
Aside from County Treasurer G. w
Bradley, the only other victim of the
storm so far reported was Jim Gee
a Chinese vegetable peddler, whose
horse became frightened near the
O-W. r. & y. depot and threw him
out of his wagon. He was uncon-
scious when picked up but recovered
his senses shortly afterward.
The power line carrying a voltage
of 1900 near the depot was blown
across the arc line, which necessitat'
ed shutting off the power for shor'
time in order to save the arc lights
Several poles on the high line neal
Sake We're blown out, but aside from
this the p. L. & p. Co, escaped dam
age. The telephone company has hao
men at work all day repairing the
damage done to its lines.

SAYS COUNTRY
FACES A PANIC

Washington, Dec. 4.-The annual
report of Secretary of the Treasury
McVeagh asserts the country Is in
danger of a panic If the banking and
currency systems are not changed.
The report states that the present
system not only cannot prevent a
panic but after a certain point is
reached will make it inevitable"
McVeagh declared that locking large
sums In the treasury vaults was un-
reasonable and unscientific. He ad-
vocates trustworthy bank reserves, in
Guiding a permanent organization and
cooperation of banks with a central
agency.

Are republican election judges and
clerks to be entirely barred in this
state during the next four years or
will it be permissible to name repub-
licans for such work in counties where
electors took either first or second
place on November 5?
This is one of the numerous ques-
tions arising as a result Of the ad-
vent of the progressive party and
from the fact that the bull moosers
ran second high in Oregon as a
whole. The question is already live
one in Portland because of the fact
preparations will soon be on down
there for next years city election,
The deputy city auditor, after con-
sulting the law, has ruled that for the
next four years republicans will be
barred entirely from Portland election
boards. the opinion being based on
the fact that the state law specifies
the judges and clerks must be select
ed from the two leading political
parties as shown by the result of the
last preceding election. The Port
land city council has been notified to
dCt dCCOIulHSiy III SeieCllHB Juu6eS
and clerks for the city election.
How the LAW Reads.
Confronted with the problem this
morning, Deputy District Attorney
Newberry delved into the code and
produced the following section as the
law upon the subject:
Section 1906. The county court
shall at the regular term in January
preceding a general election, appoint
three judges and three clerks of cleo
ton for each election precinct, to
serve for the period of two years, and
shall designate one judge to be chair
man. said judges and clerks shall each
be duly qualified electors within the
precincts for which they are APP
pointed; able to read, write and speak
the English language, not a candidate
for an elective Office to be voted for
at the ensuing election. No more
than two judges and two clerks shall
be members of the same political

Vienna, Dec. 4.-The probable with

lance is causing speculation here.
The disintegration of the alliance is
threatened. 1t is believe that Rou-
mania and Greece will unite. 1t is re-
ported that England, France and Rus
sia have induced Bulgaria to secure
peace. If Greece continues the war
she may have to fight her former al
lies.
Sofia, Dec. At has been offici-
ally announced here that Greece would
not officially reject the armistice but
has demanded an additional twenty
four hours to consider the protocol
II this is correct, Greece signs the
peace terms. The participants in the
London negotiations expect the gov
ernment will soon publish the list of
dead and wounded among the Bull
garians.

state or County Unit?
Now the question arises whether
the state or each county shall be con-
sidered the unit when the county court
consults the election returns? 1t
makes vast difference which way
the law il, construed. Wilson carried
this state with Roosevelt running sec
ond. If the state is taken as a unit
there will be no chance for republican
judges or clerks. However, if the
county unit idea prevails the situation
will be different, In Umatilla coun-
ty the democratic electors ran first
with the Taft electors second. So If
the county is recognized as the unit
the local judges and clerks two years
hence will be made up of democrats
and republicans and the progressives
will be barred. No ruling has yet been
had as to how the law should be
taken. The county court does not Sc
lect the judges and clerks for over a
year and in the meantime the exact
meaning of the law will have to be
ascertained
New Precincts Necessary.
AS a result of the adoption of equal
suffrage it will be necessary to create
many new election precincts in Una
! tilla county. The state law provides
that no precinct shall contain more
than 500 votes. The adoption of equal
! suffrage will so swell the number OF
votes in many precincts that it will
be necessary for the county court tc
! designate additional precincts. The
new precincts will become especially
necessary in Pendleton and in the
other larger places of the county
Few if any of the country precincts
will reach the 900 limit even with
lequal suffrage in force.
