FORMER HEPPNER MAN
SELLS BANK STOCK
". 5. Wharton, President of the
First National Bank of Newberg
DispOses of Interests There.
Will Move to North
Yakima.
(From the Newberg Enterprise).

(From the Newberg Enterprise).
President w. S. Wharton has sold
his stock in the First National Bank
to Mr.. M. H. Gait and has rendered
his resignation to take effect March
l. A meeting of the directors was
held Wednesday afternoon when the
resignation was occepted but the
election of his successor was post
poned until meeting to be held la
ter. 1t was thought best to have all
of the directors present and the i'll
ness of Mr.. Amos Nelson compelled
his going home before all Of the bus
mess coming before the board was
completed.
The fact that there was to be a
change in the management of the
bank has been known to the public
for some weeks. Recently there was
a change in the board Of directors
elected at the annual meeting of
stockholders and w. H. Woodworth,
formerly connected with the bank
but who, last October, went to Port
Townsend to accept position in the
Merchants bank in that city, was
elected one of the directors.
Mr.. Gait, who bought Mr.. Whar
tons stock, is young man fresh
from the law department of Ann Ar
Dor, Mich, University. His home has
been at Shenandoah, Iown, where his
family is held in high repute. He is
a young man of prepossessing ap-
pearance and manners and cannot
fail to make friends for the bank.
Mr.. Wharton has been president Of
the First National Bank for little
more than three years. He came
here with an extended banking ex-
perience and has been indefatigable
in behalf of all the public concerns
of this city. He served two years as
president of the Commercial Club,
was active in bringing here many
well known men to talk upon dairy
ing, fruit and stock industries, was
one OF the main workers for the es-
tablishment of the cannery and has
just closed a years efficient service
as a member of its board Of direct
ors. He has been during his resi-
dence here one of Newberg's most
useful citizens.
Mr.. Wharton has interests at North
Yakima, Wash, and he has said that
he may locate there after rest of a
few months. The home will be re-
tanned here until the close of the
school term, at which time his daugh-
ter, Miss Florence, will graduate
from the High school.
Mr.. Wharton and family were resi-
dents of Heppner for several years,
until the Bank of Heppner, of which
institution Mr. Wharton was cashier
was consolidated with the First Ma
tional Bank. Mr.. Wharton then
bought interests in Newberg, and
moved with his family to that city
They made many friends in Heppner
during their residence here, who will
wish them success wherever they may

After writing up the McMurray
party from information gathered
from one of the guests, we received
the following account from another
one, and gladly give it also:
Last Friday evening was night
that will linger long in the memory
of jolly crowd who wended their
way through mud and water in Fords
and automobiles to the home of l..
l.. McMurray and wife on Rhea
creek. The occasion being the sec
ond anniversary of their wedding,
Mr.. McMurray had invited his bro
ther Masons and few more friends
to spend the evening at his home.
On arriving there the sitting room
was found to be literally full of twine
string resembling cobwebs. The
guests were called out two at a time
and each given a clothes pin with a
string tied to it, leading we knew not
where, and each were to wind up the
string until they came to the end,
where was found number, and the
lady or gentleman who had the cor
responding number was the partner
for supper. After all were through
the tangle, the guests all sat down
to as fine feast as was ever spread,
and everything placed before them
to eat was raised right on the ranch.
1t would take too long to mention the
various items on the menu, but we
will remark in passing that Wes Nc
Nabb, and, we'll some of the ladies,
caused plate of home-cured picked
pigs feet to look mighty slim. Wes
said he believed he could have eaten
at least four more sets of pigs feet
had they given him time, but there
were so many other good things that
he had to make hay while the sun
shone. Ed Moore was rejoicing be-
cause he was to eat at the first table
but his ticket called for him to look
after the babies and eat at the sec
ond sitting. Rev. j. l.. Jones drew
a cartoon Of the merry bunch, At

J. H. Hamilton and wife of Po

j. H. Hamilton and wife of Port
land, were in Heppner Tuesday, ON
their way to Hamilton, to visit with
Mr.. Hamilton S father, who lives at
that place. This is Mr.. Hamilton S
first visit at home in many years.
The town of Hamilton was named for
his father.

the close of the evening the host and
hostess were presented with beau
tiful chair, and all of the guests were
invited back a year hence on the con-
dition that they would bring no more
presents. Eight rubber tired vehicles
were used to transport the merry
bunch to the best feed of the season.

have to say. Mr. Kruttschn1tt, exec
utive head of the Southern Pacific,
has written an article dealing with
the financing of railroads. He said
in part:
"The financing of a railroad is a
function which the people, through
their servants, the Railroad Commis-
sioners and the Legislators, have
never attempted, but it is most i'm
portant problem, especially to Sec
tions of State where new railroads
are needed The placing of securities
has been left entirely with the pro
moter and owner of railroads.
"The immediate determination OF
what earnings the railroad shall be
permitted to receive and what bur-
dens it shall have put on 1t is in the
hands of other servants of the public
Americus times-recorder., 1915-06-16
OUR PUBLIC FORUM
lII---Julius Kruttschnitt
On Financing Railroads

the Legislators and the Commits
sioners.
Managing railroad is quite differ
ent from managing government
where the money is raised by taxa
ton. When the expenditures, for
good reasons or otherwise, increase,
taxes can be equally increased. The
railroads, while servants of the pub
lie, cannot raise money with such
ease and facility. The railroads must
keep their expenditures within their
incomes because while they have
some control over their expenditures
they have almost no control over their
incomes, their rates being fixed by
public authorities.
There is not railway manager in
the country today who is not fearful
that under the press of increasing de-
mands the transportation systems Of
the country will, in few years, break
down, unless the railroads are allowed
to earn larger funds wherewith to
build it up. There are vast sections
of the country, especially in the West,
where more railroads are needed and
they cannot be built unless the rail-
ways raise new capital.
People invest money in order to
make money, and they are skeptical
as to whether they can make money
by investing in concerns that are dealt
with stringently and unfairly. Rail-
road securities must be made more
attractive to invite investments, anG
in order that they may be made more
attractive, the roads must be allowed
earnings that will enable them to
meet the increased capital charges" ;"
