After the failure of repeated at
tempts to devise some means of max
ing the old pioneer cemetery on the
north side of the river less unsightly,
the Identification of this plot is at
last to become a reality. Due to the
resourcefulness and energy of the Ia
dies Of the Civic Club, actual work
will be started the first Of next week
toward transferring this historic spot
and something more of a source OF
pride.
Contemporaneous with this an
nouncement comes the news that
President Farrell of the O.-W. r. &
". has made a proposal for the park
ing of the railroad land just south
Of the Bowman hotel which may real
ize another dream Of years.
Mrs. F.. 7. Wade and Mrs. r. N
Stanfield. representing the Civic club,
appeared before the city council last
evening and announced that for the
first time the club had received per-
mission from the trustees OF the pfo-
neer cemetery to improve that burial
ground. They stated that their club
was ready and willing to assume the
expense of beautifying this ground
providing the city would give some
assurance that it would be properly
| maintained. Councilmen Montgomery
and Murphy championed the cause
of the ladies. declaring the cemetery
| as II now exists disgrace to the city
| and bad advertisement. Upon mo-
| ton of Murphy, sum Of 5000 was
| appropriated for the upkeep of the
property during the summer months
The Civic club will raise the money

remain in the cemetery and by the
first of the week. the ladies hope tc
have men and teams at work levelins

lawn grass. shrubs will be set out and
by the time summer is here, 1t Is ex'
pected that It will be a spot OF beauty
instead Of a scene of delapidation ant

Of the pioneers of Pendleton.

The definite decision OF the base
ball fans of this city to stay with the
Western Tri-state league came this
morning after a re-canvas OF the sem
timent shown that such action was
warrantable. Some of the business
houses, which last week either refused
10 support organized baseball or were
reluctant about committing them
selves, have swung around and pledg-
ed themselves to contribute to the In
itial fund. In fact. the reaction from
the recent apathy and anttpathy.
which resulted in the decision to sur
render the franchise. has set in and
bids fair to make sentiment and sup
port stronger for the 1914 team than
either of its immediate predecessors,
President Collins and his co-work-
ers have started the work In busi-
ness like manner. Al Lodell, who had
been selected to direct the Pendleton
players has been notified to continue
signing up players and the other
players whose signatures had been Sc
cured to Pendleton contracts have
been notified that their releases, Is
sued by President Matlock. were not

The election Of Mr.. Ritner to the
three-in- -one position of the league
