TAXPAYERS MUM ON
1916 CITY BUDGET
Special Meeting Called to Consider
Estimate of Municipal Expenses
Fails to Attract Citizens

Not a taxpayer of Pullman re-
sponded to the call of the city Off
cials for special meeting last Mon
day evening to consider the budget
of estima ted expenses of the munich
pality for the year 1915, and the
council, after waiting in vain for the
interested taxpayers to put in an APP
pearance to discuss the budget pro
and con, proceeded to adopt it as
drafted. The budget places the
total amount to be raised by taxation
to meet the city expenses, over and
above the estimated receipts. at $21,-
200 or $1,000 more than the 1915 es-
innate. A tax levy of 81 mills will
be required to raise this amount, as
against a 19-mill levy for the present
year.

FEW SAVE INTEREST

Less than 10 per cent of the prop
erty owners of Local Improvement
district No. Is, the Maiden Lane dis
trict, took advantage of the oppor-
tunity to pay their paving assess
ments in full and save costs and in
terest, according to the report of
Treasurer j. s. Clark. The 30-day
period for the full payment of the
assessments concluded September
81, with only $2953.71 of the en-
tire assessment of $33,126.22 paid,
the big majority of the owners elect
ing to take advantage of the 10
yearly payments plan rather than
parting with the entire amount at
this time. Bonds will be issued in
the amount of the balance unpaid in
the district, $30,172.51.

DR. HAYS, PIONEER PASTOR,
RESIGNS, ILL HEALTH CAUSE
same moral support with which you
have SO greatly honored us.
Affectionately, your pastor,
w. G.. M. HAYS,

DR.. Hays came west to Waitsburg
Wash, in 1866, where he built a
church and parsonage and organized
the first United Presbyterian church
in the state of Washington He also
organized the Waitsburg Academy
and built two buildings on the
campus.
In April, 1895, he received a call
to Olympia, where he built a new
church building and after serving
there three years he accepted the in
vitation of the Spokane Presbytery
to start United Presbyterian church
at Pullman. He arrived in this field
September l, 1898. Under his min
istry u building costing about $4,000
was built and when that was out
grown the present building was
erected
He has served this church a little
over II years, during which time the
membership has increased to 800
DR.. Hays suffered a nervous break
down last year and his congregation
granted him a years leave of alb
sence in the hope that he would re-
gain his health. After the year spent
in California he is very much i'm
proved, but he does not feel that he
has made a sufficient recovery to
warrant the resumption of the ardu-
Gus duties of this pastorate.
Dr.. Hays expects to make his home
in Pullman for the present and hopes
to be able within year to resume
active work in field which will be
less exacting than this. The work
will continue under the care of the
Rev. Leo l.. Totten, who has been in
charge of the church during the alb
sence of DR.. Hays, until a successor
is chosen.

MORE DISCLOSURES
IN RUSH MURDER
brother of w. b. Rush Must Answer
to Tennessee Grand Jury for
Alleged Murder of Brother
and His Wife

Gruesome disclosures in the MUIR
formerly of Pullman, which occurred
at Grassy Cove, Tenn, recently, are
contained in Tennessee newspaper
accounts of the affair, and Victor ID.
Rush, brother of the murdered
man, has been bound over to the
Tennessee grand jury in connection
with the affair, the case to be heard
October %. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Rush
we're well known here, having
farmed one of the e. H. Letterman
farms west of Pullman last year, and
the brother also being a former resi-
dent of the Evansville neighbor-
hood. Mrs. Rush was formerly Miss
Mabel Lambert, sister of Mrs. G. A.
Haverland and Miss Hazel Lambert,
and daughter of Mrs. r. D. McQuil-
Ian. The following clippings con
eerning the sad affair are taken from
newspapers sent to Mr.. Haverland:
(From Chattanooga Times)
Crossville, Tenn, Sept 22.-Cit-
liens of Grassy Cove and vicinity are
excited to a high pitch today over
disclosures of the coroners jury in
the investigation of the murder of
Mr.. and Mrs. Will Rush, whose
charred bodies were recovered from
the smoking ruins of their home yes
terday morning. Victor d. Rush, a
brother of the deceased, was brought
into Crossville tied with a rope. and

Victor D. Rush was the man who
alarmed the neighbors at 200

brothers house was discovered
wrapped in flames. Before his ar
rest he told neighbors that he went
to the home of Bratch Wilson, son of
Senator T. E. Wilson, several hun
dred yards away; told Wilson that
his brothers home was afire, and
that he was afraid "Will and his

NOON LUNCHEON
PROVES SUCCESS
Drew IL Large Attendance of Menu
bers of the Pullman Chamber
of Commerce

The first noon luncheon of the
Pullman Chamber of Commerce was
held Tuesday in the X of p. dining
hall and the large attendance of men,
bers indicated that the change from
the evening suppers will prove popu-
lar. The business was transacted
at 100 o'clock The luncheon was
substantial, appetizing and we'll
served, despite the fact that the man
secured to prepare it backed out at
the last moment and Il. o. Cathcart,
b. w. Thorpe and Harley Jackson
had to assume the role of cooks and
walters.
Several communications were read
and two or three committees report
ed. Attention was called to the fact
that but three days were left for the
filing of notices of candidacy for city
offices, and that no one had filed for
the nominations for mayor or city
councilmen, also that but rs voters
out of 1900 had registered.
The committee ON entertainment
announced that the cost of the lunch
con was 25 cents plate and that this
would be the regular price, except
that once a month they planned to
serve a more elaborate meal, which
would add five or 10 cents a plate to
the cost.
r. C. McCroskey of Garfield made a
few remarks in reference to the policy
of the college regents in securing a
successor to President Bryan. He an
nounced that they had been unable to
secure II. j. Waters, president Of the
Kansas Agricultural College and that,
while they would like to find presi-
dent who combines executive ability
with a special bent for agriculture,
they regarded executive ability as the
most important requisite for the posi-
ton, and would use every endeayor to
find the best qualified and most
available man in the country.
The plan of securing permanent
quarters for the Chamber in the city
hall was discussed and left in charge
of the committee on building.
The question of arranging for
delegation of business men to attend
the county fair at Colfax was brought
up. but as it developed that many
were planning to visit the fair, some
one day and some on another, ii was
thought best to urge as many as pos
sible to go, but not to try to arrange
for them to go in a body.

After Seventeen Years of Faithful
Service Pastor of United Presby-
terrain Church Tenders
Resignation

Last Sunday DR.. w. G. NJ. Hays
rendered his resignation as pastor of
| the United Presbyterian church. The
profound sorrow with which the mes
sage was received by the congrega-
ton is an impressive evidence of the
strong bond of love between the
pastor and his people. The text of
the resignation was as follows:
My Beloved People,
1t has now been more than year
and half since we were Frustrated
by critical illness. We fondly hoped
that long ere this we should be so re-
stored as to warrant our return to
the active duties Of the pastorate, but
at this date it is evident that these
hopes have not been fully realized.
There has been much Improvement
in our general health, but not to the
extent as to warrant our resuming the
work Of the pastorate nor shall we
WINGED, for some time to come. In
deed, what the future holds for us
III the Masters service is problem
atical.
Bowling humbly, therefore, to what
appears to us to be the unmistakable
leading of Divine Providence, we
hereby ask you to join with us in pc
titioning the Presbytery of Spokane
to dissolve the relation now binding
us together as pastor and people.
The relation we have thus borne
for more than IT years has been to
us singularly happy and intimate
one. 1t is not always that a pastor
who has organized congregation
from the foundation has been per-
mitted to minister to it for so long
time under such pleasant circum-
stances. There has not been in all
these years, to our knowledge, any
root of bitterness to mar the har-
mony of our fellowship. The rever-
ence and respect that have been uni
formly shown us by your children
and young people, our students as
well as those of ripper years, have
been to us at once a qualification and
Observation-Disclosures that my
people should so recognize the
sacred character Of the office of the
Christian ministry-humiliat on
our part by a keen sense of not
adjoining that sacred office more
worthily.
We are most glad that we have
been permitted to know and serve
you for so many years. AS we once
declared on the floor of our General
Assem- bly,: Il would rather be the
pastor of the United Presbyterian
congregation of Pullman, Washing
ton, than to be the president of a
theological seminary"
In the confident faith that He who
holds the seven stars in His right
hand and who walks amidst the
seven golden candlesticks makes no
mistakes and that such a change,
when made by Him, shall be for the
greater glory and clearer illumina-
ton of His house, we herewith sub
nit our resignation as your pastor,
subject to the Presbytery of Spo-
kane, only asking that you will give
TO my successor, when chosen, the
