CHECK ARTIST
UNDER ARREST

Another bad check artist ran afoul
OF the law last evening although it was
not until this morning that the Off
GERS knew that he was responsible
for passing the bad paper He was
arrested when found in a drunken
condition and tried in police court for
that offense only to have his connec-
ton with the worthless check discov-
cred.
The man gave his name as William
Wilson. Yesterday he passed a $50
check at the Cash Meat Market and
soon thereafter the bogus character
OF the paper was discovered. The
officers were notified but until last
night had secured no trace of the
"artist." In the meanwhile the lat
ter had spent a part of his ill-gotten
money for liquor and was arrested in
the upper end of town and taken to
jail.
His appearance convinced both
Sheriff Taylor and Chief Kearney that
he was a criminal and they became
suspicious that he was the man who
passed the check. Upon being con-
fronted with the proprietor of the
market, he admitted he was the gull
ty person, saying that stranger had
given him the check He was trans
ferred to the county Jail to await fur
ther action.

DESIRE STREETS
FLUSHED NIGHTS

With a committee of eight, headed
by the president of the Commercial
club named to consult with city Off
cials and see if the business streets
OF the city cannot be flushed OF
nights during Roundup weeks, a
move for that long delayed better
ment is now fully under way and
gives promise of succeeding.
At the special Commercial club ses-
sion last night the subject of a clean
er town during the Roundup was dis
cussed. along with the subject of clos
ing the stores for two afternoons. A.
l.. Schaefer broached the subject by
declaring that the lights on the bridge
should be cleaned and the streets be
flushed so as to free the city of the
dust and stencil that arises when
they are merely swept.
All present joined in the suggestion
for flushing the streets and the
scheme met with decided approval. 1t
was pointed out by Leon that only
few days ago visiting lady declared
the business streets of Pendleton to
be the dirtiest she had ever seen. 9th
ers Joined in the criticism and it was
decided To take the matter up with
the street committee and other mem
bers of the city administration to
see if the work cannot be done. The
committee as appointed consists Of
j. f. Robinson, Roy Alexander F. f.
Livengood, Leon Cohen, j. V. Tall
man. A. l.. Schaefer, r. Alexander and
\. j. McAllister.
Today the matter of having the
streets flushed is being taken up with
members of the council and the may
or and it is understood progress is be-
ing made towards having the work
done. Ii was feared by Mayor Mat
lock that the water supply might be
insufficient To meet the purpose. How
ever. George Buzan, engineer of the
city pump plant, when seen by MEM
bers of the committee, expressed con-
fidence in having enough water for
the work. Just now the pumping ia
cilties are being enlarged and if the
new machinery is installed during
the week, as is hoped, there will be
ample water. should the present
pumps be unable to meet the demand.

70 POLICEMEN TO
BE ON DUTY FOR
ROUNDUP DAYS
Special Officers Will Protect Public
During Week-Chief Keaney
Plans System.

There will be seventy policemen
and plain clothes men on duty in
PendletOn during the Roundup and
fair for the protection of the resi-
dents and visitors from petty thieves
and for the preservation of the peace
OF the city. This was the announce
ment made this morning by Chief
John Kearney who has been working
for some time on a system for thor
oughly policing the streets, residence
sections, saloons. fair pavilion and
Roundup Park.
There will be an officer in each
saloon in the city to prevent dis
orderlincss and "A number of the lead
ing business houses have asked for
a special officer during the week.
Twelve policemen will be- stationed at
Roundup Park and seven in the fair
pavilion while good many extras
will circulate among the street crowds
Others will have as their duty the
patroling of the residence sections.
one of the most remarkable cir
cumstances of the Roundup last year
was the almost total absence of dis
order and petty crime such as gener-
ally attend every celebration. 1t was
the policy of the officers last year
to take into custody every man sus-
pected of being a sneak thief or pick
pocket and either to keep him in jail
or escort him out of the city.
"Drunks" were arrested promptly up
on their appearance.
However Chief Kearney anticipates
a more difficult situation this year.
Even now he says the city is filling
up with undesirables and he and his
men are kept busy chasing them out.

attended their efforts. Already the
Pendleton Woolen Mills, the j. A.
