CITYLS UPHELD
IN PA WING SUIT
James Johns Loses First Round in Jackson Street
Controversy Plaintiff Will Take Appeal to
State Supreme Court.

Holding that the City Of Pendleton
acquired jurisdiction before proceed
ing to let the contract for the i'm
provement of Jackson street with
gravel bitulithic and that, inasmuch
as the plaintiff waited until the street
had been paved and all benefits of
work had accrued to his property be-
fore complaining, he comes now too
late" Circuit Judge q. w. Phelps late
Saturday evening handed down de-
cison for the defendant in the i'm
portant case of James Johns VS.. the
City of Pendeton, in which case the
plaintiff sought to invalidate the lien
held by the city against his property.
r. r. Johnson. one of the attor-
neys for the plaintiff. announced this
morning that as soon as the decree
was entered on the records he would
file notice of appeal, so that the case
will go to the supreme court of the
state.
Judge Phelps decision is a long
one. filling sixteen typewriter pa
ges, and he cites many authorities for
his findings Reduced to its final an
alysis. however, he states that the
questions to be considered are two,
namely:
"GD Whether the City of Pendle-
ton under its charter provisions may
contract for pavement where a pOr-
ton of the material to be used is
protected by letters patent.
"(2) Whether the plaintiff has
waived his right to object and should
| be estopped from denying liability by
reason of his delay until Improvement
has been completed before making his
objections known to the city council"
Briefly, he finds that the city did
not exceed the authority given it by
the charter and that the plaintiff by
his delay sacrificed his privilege of
objeCting
Patent Paving Not Barred.
After quoting certain provisions of
the city charter relative to street inn
provement work. the judge draws the
conclusion that the charter puts all
contract for street improvement work
upon a competitive basis. The res
olution adopted by the city calling for
bids for gravel bitulithic designated
the article to be supplied, and the
/ question then arises. can there be
| competition when. as in this case, the
| kind selected is a patented article
! the decision reads
There is an irreconcilable conflict
! between the decisions of the several
states on this subject" the findings

Washington. April 7.-(Special) -
With Progressive Democracy in full
control, the ranks of the republicans
depleted and their old leaders gone,
the opening of President Wilson's spe-
cial session of the SD congress today
wa eloquent of transition from nine
teenth to twentieth century political
government New forces were in the
ascendant; new phrases passed easily
from tongue to tongue. New meas
ures and new viewpoints favored by
the older men were IN harmony with
the confident claims of the new men
fresh from the people, who crowded
the house benches and filled in the
senate picture.
Yet the ceremonial with which the
house began its sittings was as old
as its tariff problem. The formal
procedure that was in vogue when
Henry Clay was on the floor served
by mutual consent today. The crowds
that filled the galleries from early
morning to witness the show were
able to predict and nod recognition
at each step.
Clerk South Trimble stood at the
speakers desk at noon, and raped
for order. Chaplain Coudon offer
ed prayer. Trimble directed the read
ing of the presidents proclamation

The roll was answered in the order

People, especially those living IN

Europe and all of the eastern hemi-

in the matter of the formation Of
