East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1914-10-30

Today the East Oregonian publishes
a sworn statement from a reliable
farmer saying that

Complete Case. mitted 10 him he
had made $1,000
above his regular profit. by the
change in plans on the Cmatilla bridge
and had divided the Doodle with the
county court
The Cooley affidavit is another
powerful Ink in the chain Of evidence
showing how this county was shame
fully swindled in regard TO bridge

Eberhart's own statement is thor
ough proof as 10 whether there was
graft in the UmatIlla bridge. His
confession made 20 Mr.. Cooley bears
out the statements made by Judge
Maloney. by C. II. Martin. by Geary
Kimbrell and By J. ". Kimbren upon
this subject
But the Umatilla deal was a small
affair compared with the loss the
county suffered through the syste-
matte sEindle that was worked for
several years and under which Eber-
hart secured not merely one contract
but % bridge contracts all told am
ounting 70 over ssI.eo0.
As has been shown time and again
Eberhart drew the bridge plans for

the county and was engaged to super
wise the work. That arrangement in
itself was enough to keep out any
competitor for competitors did not
dare risk taking contracts under such
conditions. Furthermore when they
did want TO bid they could not secure
copies Of the plans save at great in
convenience and expense.
The results OF the "Eberhart sys-
tenn" are shown in the Umatilla bridge
deal and in the case OF the six
bridges erected in 1909 and on which
plans were substituted so as TO let
Eberhart build lighter bridges for the
same price he had contracted to build
heavy bridges. The results Of that
system are manifested in the fact the
county paid Eberhart from nine to
I3 cents per pound for steel when Ahe
city Of Pendleton erected bridges,
much superior TO any OF the Eber-
hart bridges. at prices based on a
cost Of from five and a half to six
cents per pound for steel
There is evidence. compiled by en-
gineers who have checked up the
work. that UmatiIla county was

aorio. Comic Incidents of the Zulu War
 In South Africa,
 The following story is told of m h cident that occurred during the Zulu war in South Africa, when an over whelming force of natives was opposed to a little band of English marines. From the Zulu host stepped forth a warrior laden with an ancient freaFm, which be calmly mounted on a tripod in the open. while the marines looked on. admiring his pluck and wondering much what he proposed to do At last one jovIal marine suggested that their photographs were about to be taken. and by common consent no shots were fired.
 Having loaded his piece with great deliberation. the Zulu primed it, sight. ed it and, leaning hard upon its breech, tired. The recoil knocked him head over heels backward. while great roar went up from the delighted ma. rincs. He sat up. looking dazed. and then, the amusement over, he and his cOuntrymen charged and were annihi- lated by voIIey from the steadily aimed pieces of the little band of ma. rines.
 During one of the many battles waged by the New Zealand Maoris against the British settlers the latter ran out of ammunition. At the mo. ment when death seemed imminent flag of truce appeared from the en- emy's trenches and messengers came forward with q supply of cartridges to enable the white men to continue fight ing.-Washington Star.

Most Liberal Christmas Givers.
 The big private banking houses of Wall street are the most liberal re- warders nt Christmas. just as they are the heaviest salary payers throughout the year The greatest house in the street has been known to give 100 per cent bonus to all employees at New Years that is. double pay for the en- tire year. In that firm New Years Is the greater day. Nobody has ever ex' plained exactly why it Is preferred to Christmas. Often the house gives 4O per cent. But, like other private bank Ing firms, 1t never lets 1t get out what bonus 1t will pay for fear that the size of the gift will be taken by the world to Indicate the state of pros perlty of tue firms preceding year. Every year the amount Of the bonus naturally t,oes leak out afterWard through the people who set pieOOs of if and who lunch with benefited ones from other banking houses. So 1t is that almost everything in Wall street leaks out through the amiable weak pesses of luncheon gossip.
