SHOP FORCE STRIKE.

Muskogee. Okla, June About
100 men, representing the entire
shop force of the Muskogee, Oklaho-
ma and Gulf system, are ON strike,
the crafts involved being ear repair
ers, machinists, blacksmiths, boiler
makers and coppersmiths. The trou-
BILE was precipitated by the system
of pay adopted by the company, pur-
suant to the enactment of the semi
monthly pay day law. Since the
adoption of this law the company
has continued to retain 30 days pay
in arrears, rs before. The men were
also notified recently that the regu-
lar pay day would be deferred until
another date, The master mechanic
was informed of the situation, but
there was no effort upon the part of
the officials TO relieve 1t, and the
strike followed.

SEARCH FOR DIRIG!BLES
WITH LIGHTS
Associated Press,

@hsSp'ioAth I lNcNs
Paris, June 4.-French army posts
on the German frontier have been
provided with powerful searchlights
that sweep the heavens at irregular
intervals throughout the night on the
lookout for alien dirigibles. This is
the latest development in the watch
fulness with which the French are
guarding the German line, especially
since the landing of the Zeppelin at
Luneville short time ago.
To test the vigilance of the look
cut. French airships cruise unan-
ncunced along the 242-mile border
and woe to the luckless picket who
fails to detect their presence. All
roads leading near the frontier are
guarSSs as never before. The way
farer near the German line eneoun-
ters frequent patrols. who observe
sharply but do not challenge Among
OFFICERS of the French army favor
lite topic for discussion and concern
is the possible start of "a hours the
Germans might get in the case of
war. The fate of the French nation,
they say, might depend upon the
prompt intelligence of sergeants
patrol.
The wires leading from the from
tier TO Paris were alive with the
alarm when the Zeppelin crossed the
border and descended at Luneville.
Intelligence officers at the Nancy
headquarters received from watchers
along the frontier four telephone
calls telling Of the passage of the air
craft. The posts on all that part of
the line were astlr with alarm and
doubt: a thousand field glasses swept
the haze and fog of the heavens for
glimpse of the unwelcome visitor.
At Paris, the war ministry was
promptly notified by telephone. The
French air cavalry, especially the
acroplanists at Nancy. scurried to
their hangers and remained there in
momentary readiness to take wing
and reconnolter the German side for
movements of troops. Since then the
French war ministry has not relaxed
its vigilance. rather it has been in
creased.

ASKS M'ADOO TO
PROVE HIS CLAIMS
Senator Demands Authority for the
Charges of Bank Plot to Dis
credit u. 5. Bonds.

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Weeks of Massachusetts, republican
member of the senate committee on
banking and currency in a statement
attacked Secretary McAdoo for his
charge that the banks had depressed
the price of two per cent bonds and
demanded that he make public the
information on which he based the
charge
"If he does not furnish the public
with this evidence and do so at once"
said Senator Weeks, "it will be con-
strued and properly so, as another
step in the propaganda which this ad-
ministraion stands for that is to dis
credit any one who opposes it by at
taching sinister, malign, and interest
ing reasons for so doing
"Unless the secretary has the evil
dence, his declaration is the most
abominable attempt to influence con-
gressional action which has come
from this administration, so far as l
know from any other administration;
and it looks like a concerted drive on
the part of the high officials of the
administration to influence the judg-
ment and opinion of the business
community"

MOTION FOR new TRIAL IN JOHNS CASE
is DENIED; WHO PAYS BILL NOW QUESTION

BY a decision of the supreme court
Yesterday in denying the motion of
City Attorney Carter for a new trial
In the case of James Johns VS.. the
City of Pendleton, the plaintiff is fl
nally exempted from the payment of
the cost of paving Jackson street in
front of his property and the question
now arises. who will pay for it? viii
the city of Pendleton as a corporation,
which means the taxpayers. be requir-
ed to assume the expense or will the
Warren Construction Co be the loser?
The answer is clear to nobody at
this time. Though the contract be-
tween the city and the company ex-
pressly states that the city is not to
be liable in any event for the cost Of
the Improvement work. ii is the opin
ion of some attorneys that the nature
of the error. upon which the decision
of Judge G.. w. Phelps was reversed,
makes the city responsible to the
company. The error. which consisted
in mistaking a letter c for a figure
6 was made by the city engineer,
Whether or not the Warren Con-
struction Co. will seek to hold the city
responsible is another question for
the future to settle. The assessment
against the Johns property amounts
to something over S4OO but there are
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1913-07-30

a number of other Jackson street
property owners who were interested
with him in the suit and il is very
probable that they will seek to escape
payment of their assessments by rea-
son of the outcome of the Johns case.
Those who have already signed the
waivers and accepted the ten wear
payment option may also rebel at the
thought Of paying their assessments
when their neighoors are exempted.
Just what action will result cannot be
predicted.
City Attorney Charles Carter refus-
es to express himself as TO what tho
results will be. He had expected IA
vorable consideration OF his motion
for new trial and was in no verv
amiable frame of mind when he
learned last evening that the supreme
court had denied it. He has not vet
received formal notification of the
action of the court. James A. Fee
counsel for the Warren Construction
Co, who assisted the city attorney I'm
the case, was also very surprised to
hear of the action of the court but
declared he could not give an opinion

sponsibility for errors

PHILIPPINE ISLANDS NOT READY

WESTON MAN Who is NOW HERE

That the natives of the Philippines
are not yet ready for self-government
is the opinion of j. r English Of
Weston, former teacher in this county
who has just returned from a two
year stay in the Uncle Sans orien-
tai possessions where he was a civil
engineer in the bureau of lands Mr.
English states that whole the inde-
pendence question is by no means
ohe-sided one, he does not think the
time is yet come for the United States
to place the reins of government in
the hands of the islanders
The question is being agitated
strongly now in the islands," he said
especially between the newspapers,
the American journals fighting against
the independence idea and the papers
printed by natives or Spaniards con-
tending for it. AS whole, | believe
the people are too indolent and too
ignorant to cope with the problems OF
government. A great many of the
people do not care one way or other
about the matter for they appreciate
that they have much more liberty now
than when under Spanish control. But
the natives about Manila are clamor-
ing for government for they con
stitute the political class and would
be the ones to profit by the change
The people of the outlying communi-
ties have no ideas of their own and
do as they are told to do. During the
