Delevan's Comet
Is Now Visible

The comet is now plainly visible
between the hours of 3 and 4 O.
clock on clear mornings, and is ex-
pected to reach tsgreatest brillian'
CIV about October 4th. This visitor
to the autumnal skies in an object
of beauty we'll worth robblng
Morpheus to see,
Delevan's comet was discovered
at the big CHILEAN observatory, in
South America, and is named for
it's discoverer, Prof. Delevan. 1t
is a "war comet" as it heralded
and is accompanying the great
European conflict now raging,
thus repeating what many have
ceased to look upon as mere
coincidence. Every big war in
history has been marked by the
appearance of comet.

Leaders Give Out Statements

The following statement was gly"
en- out by Rossell Edward Lltchell,
as representing the views OF J. W.
Hough, president of the Virginia
Anti-Saloon League. =.
"While it was glorious victory,
it was about what we expected OF
Virginia voters. The result is suffi-
Gent evidence that the effort to
confuse the issue in various ways,
failed in its purpose.
The partnership of Virginia
with the liquor traffic is forever
dissolved. The next slept will be,
hot the Tobacco ISSUE" but a
concerted effort to elect officials
everywhere who are favorable to
Jaw enforcement, and who can be
depended upon to make prohibition
legislation thoroughly effective.
"In the meantime the liquor sell
lers and their employees have ample
time to get into more useful lines
of employment, and | can say posi-
lively that no men or organization
will more cbeerfully and earnestly
assist these men to do so than the
State and city Anti-Saloon League
Throughout the entire cam
paign, the records will show that
our fight has been on the Liquor
traffic, not on the men concerned
with it.
Says Result Is Gratifying
The result in Norfolk is exceed
ingly gratifying; especially as Nor 70
folk has been considered one of the
wettest" spots in Virginia. The
large vote for prohibition guaran-
tees an ample public sentiment to
secure the most rigid law enforce
ment.
1t will be- observed that Norfolk
county, together with the cities OF
Norfolk and Portsmouth give a to-
tai of 81 majority for prohibition,
thus securing ''local' prohibition
as we'll as statewide, for this Sec
lion.
People Want Prohibition
Harvey M. Dickson, manager OF
the Bust less Mems Headquarters
of the Local Self Government
League, gave out the following
statement late last night:
The returns indicate that the
State of Virginia has gone drv by
between $4,000 and 10000 major
ity.
with such a majority, it is a
pretty sure thing that the people
of Virginia believe in prohibition.

Kaiser Loves Peace
Skibo ANDY Insists

sNew York, September 26.-"Ill
ell you how the war started" said
Andrew Carnegie, who just reached
here aboard the Mauritania from
Europe. "The kaiser was on his
Yacht in the North Sea, when he
received a telegram asking him to
return. When he returned the
damage had already been done.
The kaiser himself is peace-loving
man. The trouble was started by
German military that rules the
country. They are responsible for
the war. The kaiser has gathered
around him a group, which, un-
known to him, acted in concert and
in his absence took action that
couldn't be altered"

Highland heartily approves the
suggestion made by the Staunton
Leader that Harrisonburg vote it
self dry as soon as possible and not
wait for the two years Of grace pro-
vided for in the Enabling act. The
Leader says it would give the
Valley peace and quiet year soon
er than under the Enabling Act. "
And it would save Highland some
heart-aches and headaches. Then.
too, the proud, prosperous little
capital of Rockingham owes re-
buke to those officials who went to
Richmond last winter and MADE
the humiliating plea that Harrison
burg could not get along without
whiskey revenue.
If the temperance forces feel
confident of their footing, by all
means take this advance step.

II 'nterey, Va. Friday, Get 2 1914

The report was current TWO
months ago that the Board OF SUI
pervisors had decided 70 submerge
the water breaks on the pike as fast
as practicable, and that the first
installment of culverts had
been ordered. We trust that
this is correct, though we
have heard of no further action
being taken. Autoists report the
pike in pretty good shape this fall
but they all add eff it just wasn't
for the miserable water-hreaks!'
The toll receipts will show that
the auto owners are entitled to con-
sideraticn, and the Board ought
not to delay this one thing of all
others that is begged for and so
badly needed.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-"The sem
ate must take responsibility for the
incomplete federal reserve board The
president is determined to stand or
fall by warburg. He can not nomi-
nate a substitute for him" This de-
claration is given out unofficially re-
garding the controversy between Will
son and the senate committee on bank
ing and currency, over the confirm
alton of Paul warburg and Thomas
Jones, as reserve board members. No
attempt is made in administration cir
cles to conceal the fact the issue has
caused an almost complete split be-
tween the president and some leading
democratic members of the senate.
The president remained in his study
at the White House while Secretary
Tumulty conferred with senator's the
administration seemed able to rely on
relative to lining up the Wilson forces
for a fight in behalf of Warburg and
Jones. Senator's James. shafroth.
Lewis and Hughes said the vote in the
open senate viii be close but expressed
confidence the Jones nomination will
be confirmed. OF warburg they are
not so certain unless he appears be-
fore the banking and currency COM
mittee in compliance with its request
to answer questions concerning his
connection with Kuhn, Loeb & COM
pany. That he will do this appears
unlikely, Warburg himself not only
refusing. but the president having in
dorsed his refusal.
One suggestion was that the presi-
dent allowed his appointment to re-
main pigeonholed until Chairman
Owen of the committee returns from
Europe, when some of the adminis-
tration's friends believe he can con-
vince the appointee that the COM
mitteemen don't intend to heckle him
but merely want to learn his financial
views. If the committee learns what
1t wants to know and it proves salts
factory it is said there will be no fur
ther objection TO his confirmation.
Some of the republican committee
men. it is stated. favor him but insist
that precedent be observed.

Manager August Bade of the Bears

He stated that he has all kinds of of
fers for Walla Walla payers this year
Bade has been inquiring around
Spokane ana learned that Northwest
ern league clubs are particularly anX-
ious to strengthen up at this time of
the year. But one of the best offers
he has seen. was the offer of a rep
resentative of the Edmonton club in
the Twilight league, who wanted to
buy the entire Bear infield.
Russ Hall, now manager of the Ia
coma club, however, knows the good
men of the Tri-State and after get

CHAUTAUOUA CLOSES TONIGHT
PLEDGES WANTED FOR TICKETS
FOR PROGRAM NEXT SUMMER

Tonight and this afternoon will wit
mess probably the real big time OF the
,chautauqua. The Dunbar singing or
,chestra of six lady entertainers will
entertain you. Following their pre-
lude this afternoon Or. Seasholes will
give the most popular rendition of a
serious subject perhaps most Pen
dletonians have heard. This evening
there will be n full concert by the
Dunbars and then the big surprise,
JOY Night. will have the stage.
Only a small number of tickets
were pledged last night. which makes
Il look doubtful regarding chautau-
qua for next year. II, however, 400
more tickets are pledged this after
noon and tonight It will be assured.
As one of the leading business men
remarked last night: I'VE have made
a success OF the Roundup and all
other enterprises we have started In
Pendleton but we need various en-
terprises we have started in Pendleton
but we need various enterprises par
ticularly the chautauqua to make this
q well balanced and progressive CON-
munity.

"Walla Walla. La Grande, The
Dalles, Weiser, Baker City, Hood River
are making the chautauqua n success
and there is no reason Pendleton,
from what she has done in the past
should not make II the greatest sue
cess of any. Pendleton is the ideal
town, both in size location and spirit
to make this success.
Manager r. d. Edwards says the
business men have promised to sign
the contract for another year provid-
ed these tickets are pledged. He feels
he and the business men have done
their part and now its up to the peo-
pie.
Regarding pledge cards, patrons
may see MIR. Tallman, Mr.. McAllister,
Mr.. Roosevelt or Mr.. Edwards, the
superintendent. These tickets cost
$2.50 and will not need to be paid for
until next chautauqua BY having a
season ticket you or one of your fam
lily can attend any or all programs al
n cost of less than l0c.
II is understood the chautauqua
will be held two weeks earlier next
year so as to be ahead of the harvest
and the heat
