WAKE UP

nTis a fact that people have
not generally taken suffi-
cient interest in the annu-
al school elections in Pendleton.
Usually only a handful of peo-
pie vote; it being rare that
more than 80 or 40 people go
to the polls.
Yet the school department in
Pendleton is of the utmost i'm
portance to the city. The
schools require more money
for their maintenance than
does the regular city govern
ment. The public schools of
Pendleton constitute our best
drawing card. With a vast
number of people Pendleton's
reputation depends upon the
reputation of its schools be-
cause they come here more for
school purposes than anything
else.
At the election Monday let
there be a good turn out even
if there should be only one can
didate for director. If the peo-
pie want Mr.. Strain to be d.
rector let them go to the polls
and vote for him. If they don't
want him then elect someone
else. Don't leave the election
to 20 or 25 people and then
complain if the result does not
please you.

WHERE MONEY is LOST

~ HE Portland Journal is
" throwing some light on
the operations of bridge
contractors and in the course of
an editorial last evening said {:
Oregon taxpayers have
been many times robbed in
bridge building. Bridge steel
has, through the unfamiliarity
of county courts with such
things, been sold for county
bridges at more than double its
value.
"Juggled specifications that
give favorite bidders an advan-
tage and prevent real compe-
tition are a secret method by
which county courts are i'm
posed upon and taxpayers
mulced. The practice not only
extends to bridges but to other
forms Of public work, and in
the aggregate, it has cost the
public a heavy price"
The charge is absolutely
true and the subject is one To
which sufficient thought and
attention have not been given
The Journal is engaged in q
good line of work.

THE PRICE OF WHEAT

m HE Spok esman-Review
VI takes the view that the
price of wheat while de-
pressed on account of high
ocean charges must rise again
because of the inevitable de-
mand in Europe. The follow

paper is Of interest:
Relatively low prices FOR wheat, as
compared with prices last fall and

Gould Shoves Relative
Out of R. R. Position
Special TO The Telegraph

New York. Nov. 5.-George J. Gould,
who has been a silent factor in the
financial and railroad world since he
was ousted from the management of
the Missouri Pacific Railway by Kuhn,
Loeb Company and allied interests
last summer, got back into harness
yesterday and treated Wall street to a
new sensat tion. He gained control of
the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad,
and by the exercise of this control
forced the president of the Denver road
out of his office and elected new
president suitable to himself. He also
busted a vice-president to make way
for his son, Kingdom Gould, and ap-
pointed new director on the EXecu-
tive Committee. in place of his own
brother-in-law Finley j. Shepard, hus-
band of Helen Gould.
B. f. Bush, receiver and president of
the Missouri Pacific system and an inti-
mate friend of Mr.. Gould for many
years, was forced out as president of
the Denver and Rio Grande. In his
place Mr.. Gould and his associates
placed Arthur Coppell, of the banking
firm of, Maitland, Coppell & Company.
This is the only temporary shift.

Legality of McEntee's
Election Is Questioned

\ question as to the legality of the
election of 7. T. McEntee to council
in the Fourth ward may be raised. ac-
cording to talk in Steelton political
circles to-day.
Mr.. McEntee, former burgess. af-
ter being defeated for both the Re-
publican and Democratic nominations
at the primary, was placed on the
Washington party ticket, which had
no candidates in the field. 1t is on this
ticket that he was elected by a plur-
ality of SO votes over II. A. Hartman.
Republican. The only question that
could be raised would be whether or
not the placing of his name on the
Washington ticket after the primaries
was legal.
Mr. Hartman, his opponent was out
of town this morning and his course
of action could not be learned. Men
close TO the situation, however. say
that Mr.. Hartman considers the form
er burgess election, verdict of the
voters and will make no contest.
