ALTERED THE CASE.

During his last visit to this country
Henri Vignaud, for so many years our
secretary of embassy at Paris, told a
story of one Renaud who came to
Paris as a senator from a district in
the Psrenees.
Renaud engaged room at a hotel
in Paris and paid months rent
two hundred francs-in advance. The
proprietor asked him whether he
would take a receipt.
"A receipt is unnecessary" said Re-

come visitors they are.
Presumably the travellers are out
TO see what they can see and learn
what they can learn Therefore their
visit to this city is complimentary
and is appreciated accordingly.
on the supposition they desire to
know what sort of town they are in
a few facts may be hastily pre-
sented.
Pendleton is the capital of the
greatest wheat producing county of
Oregon-a county that produces one
per cent of the wheat of the world.
Tributary to Pendleton on the west
is the UmatiIa irrigation project
a project that is declared by govern
ment engineers to be the best project
of its size constructed hv the govern
ment. 1t is project that is soon TO
be extended so as to water an additi-
onal 10000 acres.
Tributary to Pendleton on the
east is the Milton -Freewater fruit
district-a horticultural section un-
surpassed by any in the northwest
unless it be by the Lewiston-Clarks-
ton country The Milton -Freewater
country produces more fruit and sells
it at better prices than does either
the Hood River or Yakima sections.
Tributary to Pendleton on the
south is Il region not yet closely de-
veloped but which nevertheless sup
plies such towns as Seattle and Ia
coma with a large percentage of their
beef and mutton. 1t is also a country
with. many million feet of standing
pine timber that should be converted
into lumber and some day will be
brought into this city for such man
utacture.
Immediately adjoining Pendleton is
the Umatilla reservation compris-
ing 100000 acres of land, most of
which is splendidly adapted to agri-
culture. A large portion of the res
ervation may be irrigated and it
would be under irrigation now had
Uncle Sam with reference to his own
duties been as circumspect as he de-
sires certain gentlemen to be who at
times have had occasion to visit the
federal courts in Idaho and Oregon.
As to Pendleton itself it would take
book of several volumes to really
set forth the whole truth about its
Industries and resources; the accom-
plishments and possibilities of the
city.
Pendleton is the biggest town of
its size in the United States. During
the Roundup last fall the city enter
tained 10000 visitors in the course of
three days yet had meals and beds tc
spare, kept everybody smiling and
made money by the process.
This is the home of the Pendletor
wooden mill, the finest equipped fac
tory of the sort in the west and which
turns out a product that is popula'
all over the world. Pendleton is no.

hedged in by boundary lines; so they
have swept across the Snake river

VOTERS REJECT PROFESSION
To Bond Rutland for 100000 for New
Water Reservoir

Rutland, Nov. 2O.-The special cleo
ton to decide whether or not the vot-
ers would empower the board of alder
men to issue 100000 in water bonds,
the money to be used for construction
of larger reservoir, resulted in the
turning down of the proposition yes
terday by vote of 929 to 1871. The
decided feeling against the PROPOSE
ton resulted from the actions of The
special water committee who contract
ed bills amounting to nearly $500 be-
fore the doings of the committee were
known to the people. One set of plans
for a reservoir submitted by Barrows
and Breed of Boston were refused be-
cause they did not coincide with the
ideas of the committee, none OF whom
were engineers. The last plans were
submitted by Miriam A. Miller Of Bos-

OLD WAR VOUCHER
State May Collect Debt One Hundred
Years Old.

Montpelier Nov. 2l.-In exploring
the archives OF the acknowledgements
Office, Adjutant-General Lee S. Tilot-
son has made a discovery which may
enrich the State to the amount of
$4,000, or to be precise, S39,476.3G.
For some time past there has been
a movement on foot at Washington to
reimburse the State governments for
money expended in the defence of the
country during the War of 1912. Up
to the present time it had appeart d
that Vermont could not benefit by
this action of the national govern
ment. Although diligent search had
been made no record could be found
OF State expenditures during that
war and II was generally believed
that all trace of the vouchers had
been destroyed by the fire which con
sumed the second State house on
January 9Th, 1857
The document now brought TO light
Is nothing less than an official COPY of
the vouchers for debts incurred dur.
ing that war. The find is a leather.
covered copy book as large as a good
sized ledger. II contains thirty
seven pages of beautifully engrossed
entries, the genuineness of the copy
being certified to under the State seal
by the then secretary of state. Chas.
". Wilson, and dated 1856.
This copy was probably made in
connection with steps to pay OF the
volunteers of the War OF 1912. which
Old newspapers mention as having
been taken at about the time the copy
was made. The volume owing to its
more portable form was probably saw
ed from the fire which in all likeli-
hood consumed the original vouchers.
As a certified copy is everywhere
recognized as practically equal in
Reliability 10 the original stems will
probably TO taken to bring this newly
discovered proof to the attention of
Congress and to secure the conse.
quent reimbursement.

In anticipation of a meeting of the Cochise County Taxpayers association which has been called for this city today, J. \. Gaines. the secretary of the association arrived from Tomb stone last night. It is the regular bus mess that will come up at this meet ing, but three weeks hence there will be meeting Of greater importance, the first annual meeting of the ss- sociation.
 Although not quite a year old the association has accomplished much al ready and rom the start has war ranted it's existence. By no means all that it has done for the taxpayers and the people of the county has ever been published A full statement of what has been accomplished and what is planned will be contained in the reports that will be made at the coming annual meeting and these re- ports will be full oi interest
 Reference being made to the new Gila county association and it's having adopted practically the same consti- tuition and bylaws as the Cochise county association, Mir Gaines men toned the fact that he was at Globe during the formation of that asso- ciation and gave the new organization the benefit of the experience that had been obtained in this county.
