A Story of Joe ManIey.


Chief Justice Fuller of the United
States supreme court was on visit to
Maine some years ago and while there
was entertained by Joe Manley. Mr..
Manley was held in great reverence by
his fellow citizens all over Maine and
especially in Augusta, his home. He
took Mr.. Fuller for a drive about the
place, but was forced by a pressing
business engagement to leave his guest
before the drive was finished. When
Mr.. Manley had disappeared the driver
turned to the judge, whom he did not
know, and. drawing out a cigar, said:
II suppose you don't mind If 1 smoke.
When we are driving Mr.. Manley we
never light up, because he's rather a
distinguished citizen" Fuller repress-
ed laugh and told the driver to go
ahead. which he did. Later the chief
justice retailed the joke to Mr.. Manley,
who at the first opportunity told the
driver a few things, winding up, ''You
miserable three ply idiot, that was the
chief justice Of the United States"

PENDLETON|AN ARRIVING FROM MEXICO SAYS
PRESS EXAGGERATES IN REPORTING FIGHTING

After having been in Mexico upon
an extended trip, Mr.. and Mrs. John
Vert returned home last evening. IL
the troubled southern republic the
Verts visited various points where
the present revolution is under way
and Mr.. Vert is quoted with the fol-
lowing interview by a Portland pa
per.
The press dispatches of fighting
and trouble in Mexico are greatly
exaggerated" he said There is
considerable fighting and maneuver-
ing between the rival armies, but lit
tie damage is being done to property
and apparently no damage whatever
to American or other foreign resi-
dents.
1T was my fortune to meet per-
sonally the three leaders of the present
revolutionary movement - Generals
Orozco. Campo and Saiazar. They are
highly educated, intelligent and ca
pable gentlemen who are fighting for
what they believe to be just and
rightful cause. They are not adven-
turers, as has been asserted. but to
their followers they are patriots.
The first peremptory order issued
by General Orozco was that Ameri-
cans or other foreign residents must
not be molested. His men are to be
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-04-04

severely dealt with if they violate this
rule
THE opinion seems to prevail am
ong Orozco's followers that he has
not been treated fairly by the Made
TO government. He was one of Ma
dero's strongest supporters in the for
mer insurrection and now his friends
feel that he should have been re-
warded with substantial position.
But he was ignored entirely.
1.-The Mexican poems worship Oroc-
CO and will not be satisfied until his
mbition to overthrow Madero Is ac-
complished For that reason the Ma
dero government cannot last. Mexico
will not be on a permanent basis of
progress until a change takes place.
"Orozco does not want to be pres
ident. His friends say that he ad-
mits his incapacity for the office. II
OroZco is given the power to name
the man who shall be president 1t Is
believed that he will name General
De la Barra, who was provisional
president after the abdication of Di-
az. What Mexico really needs now
is man of the qualities that Diaz
possessed % years ago. That Is, when
Diaz was in his prime. He ruled with
an iron but just desposism. Mexico
needs another like him.

TRI-STATE LEAGUE
NOW SEEMS CERTAIN

That the proposed tri-state base
ball league is meeting with encour-
agement in the other Oregon cities is
evident by the following telegram re-
ceived last night by Secretary Keefe
OF the Commercial association from
w. n. Sweet, one of the two Boise
representatives, at Baker, who have
been developing sentiment in the diff
ferent cities:
la Grande has organized a big
stock company for new park and
$4,000 has been subscribed for a ball
team. The Baker Commercial Club
at Its regular meeting tonight voted
to push the matter strong and ad-
wise me definitely Friday night.
Strong men are in action here now
and the matter will probably go
through. Date of meeting will be
early next week. Will advise definite
ly Cody is at ontario and l will join
him there tonight Meeting is called
for in the morning."
Advices from Walla walla are to
the effect that a permanent organi-
cation has been effected there and
$500 of the necessary s2500 sub
scribed by last evening, so that it now
seems that Ontario is the only city
left to be induced to enter the league.

BRITISH STRIKERS
ORDERED TO MINES
Executive Committee Ignores
Majority Vote Against
Wage Bill

London, April 4.-The great strike
of coal miners which for weeks has
paralyzed trade in England, Scotland
and Wales, and causing untold misery
to thousands upon thousands of poor,
was called off today by the miners
leaders.
The action of the miners executive
committee came after a complete
canvass of the referendum vote on
whether the strike be continued.
The action was taken despite the
fact that a majority of the men vot-
ed against Premier Asquiths mini
mum wage bill, as cure for their
grievances.
The official count showed 2O1,013
miners voted to resume work and
244,011 to continue the strike.
The miners executive committee
stated that an official order to re-
sumo work, pending the organization
of district minim6m wage committees,
would be issued Immediately.
In explanation the leaders declared
today that as two-thirds vote was
necessary to authorize a strike and
since the rule applied to the refer
endum to continue the strike already
in existence and as there were not
two-thirds opposed TO work peace
must be declared.

TWIN BROTHERS FOR
MOORHOUSE TWINS

chance to win fame and fortune

Phillip Jones, we'll known Indians
who live at Umatilla. Incidentally, it
might be mentioned that Tox-e-lox

The "Moorhouse Twins" are With
out question the most famous of all
the Indian pictures of the well known
local photographer. They were taken
number of years ago, one showing
the two little smiling pappooses
strapped to a board and the second
showing the same two crying. So
unique the subject as so excellent the
Photographic art, that the major be-
came known throughout the length
and breadth of the land and his reve-
nue. from them amounted to several
thousand dollars.
