Another big compliment To Pendle-

an editorial IN the Aberdeen World,

worth reading, The editorial title is

The biggest little city of its

heard Aberdeen called that. AS we
have grown and assumed more metro-
politan airs, We seem to have lost
something of the spirit that support-
ed a ball team in the Northwest
league when this city was not much
more than half its present size, when
we were IN on everything, not to say
leading it, that was going on in this
part Of the state. Probably multi
plicity of cares and business has di-
verted our attention. But Pendle-
ton furnishes a lesson. Without the
Roundup the town rs just an ordl-
nary farming center. With the Round
Up 1t has become nationally known
The Roundup idea was there all the
time. Some one proposed TO Wala
Walla before Pendleton thought of it,
or before it was thought of for PEN
dleton. Walla Walla, a town on the
old trail that would have been a fit
place to revive memories, saw MOTH

and the Roundup belongs to Pen>
dleton. 1t is not the Roundup any
where else and it can't be transplant
ed. 1t belongs TO Pendleton, and it
has meant a lot to Pendleton. 1t is
only necessary to attend the Round
Up to know how much.
Some years ago the Harbor cities
turned their Fourth of July celebra-
ton into the Grays Harbor Splash,
an exhibition of feats of woodcraft
and logging. The idea has not reach

to grow and be as big an attraction
Tor this section as the Roundup is
for Pendleton. Nowhere else could
splash be staged as it can here. It
needs enlargement. Plans on foot to
add TO it and to make it even more
distinctive of the district and its
principal industry than it now is,
ought to be encouraged and support

LUXURY IN MEXICO.

A patent cooking outfit which was
not approved by the war department
enough to make a purchase of it was
allowed to follow the soldiers into
Mexico. The owner took it along
with a pair of mules to draw it on
two wheels. The boys in blue laughed
all through the moving through the
desert, for the cooker was a failure.
There was nothing to cook. Hard
tack does not require fire to pre-
pare it in the field. But when the
punitive army got hold of Mexican
beef the cooker began to loom up,
and the soldiers lived on roast beef,
rich soups, and other real food for
many days. And that rolling-cooker
man is more popular than the gem
eral. The boys would rather have
Villa escape than the cooker

Travelling Man WA Charged win
Having Married That Number Of
Women, and Objection Is Made.

That three Of thirteen women her
husband is alleged to have married
since 1902 lived in New Mexico was
the testimony Of Mrs. Emelie Ed
wards-Vissers in her divorce suit
against Arthur l.. Vissers, a travel
ing man who makes rounds periodi-
cally of Albuquerque, Santa Fe and
Las Vegas. She was granted a di-
vorce at Los Angeles few days ago
on testimony that she, in company
with Mrs. Irene Rogers Vissers, the
alleged eleventh wife, had both met
another wife, Mrs. Effie Vissers, who
married Vissers in 1914 and had
never been divorced from him.
Three of the alleged wives of. the
travelling man, who, like the proven
bal sailor, seemed to have had a
sweetheart in every port, we're in the
courtroom at the trial. The women
testified that Nissers was "captivat-
ing" in his wooing, was "aristocrat-
ic" in his bearing, danced "divinely,"
and possessed striking" PERSONAL
ity. The three New Mexico wives
were given in the court proceedings
as Jessie Diamond Vissers, Albu-
querque; Crystal Vissers, Las We
gas, and Myrtle West Vissers, Santa
Fe, while the Texas wives were given
as Mrs. Maggie Mclean Vissers,
Houston, Tex; Tulo Longworth
Vissers, Fort Worth, and Efie Wis
sers, Ell Paso. All of the women
were widows when Vissers is said to
have married them.-Las Vegas IN

Increased uso Of Electric Lights for
Displaying the United States
Flag at Night.

The wave Of patriotism which has
swept over the country and some re-
cent electrical development has been
responsible for some innovations in
displaying the colors. In several Of
the recently erected buildings there
are "hood lights" arranged around
the base Of the flagpole so that at
night the bunting is to be seen
proudly flying just as plainly as in
daylight. AS a matter of fact, it is
much more effective at night, for the
flag seems to stand out in the dark
ness, and the effect is spectacular.
Another novelty is an electric flag
which has been designed and built by
a western electric company and is
carried in stock, ready for delivery.
This was done in response to a gen.
eral demand which was created by
the example of a Denver doctor who
had one of these flags built to his
order and placed on new house
which had just been finished for his
occupancy. The standardized cleo
trio flag as built for general sale is
four feet long and contains from "a
to 200 lamps, as desired. 1t is said
that the 94-lamp design may be OPP
Grated for eight cents an hour.

, There's an old adage which says that burned child dreads the fire, | and the residents on the beachside ! of Front St. after their experiences in the storm of 1913, certainly spent an anxious night Tuesday. The high wind and the heavy surf made sleep impossible for many, and there was continual investigation of the bulkheads upon the part of the own CTS throughout the night until the storm began to abate. But the waves never did get high enough to do any serious damage and there was no repetition of the removal scenes that make 1913 for ever me- morable. Four scows were driven ashore, some piling is said to have been loosened, two schooners beach, ed and that is about all that has to be recorded against this storm.

 Quite a large number of Kouga- rokers returned yesterday afternoon, the party including two prospective legislators in their number, viz Mike Young and Jas. P. Daily. They had glorious trip coming down, beset with storm and rain and they had an especially interesting time nego- tiating Iron creek where the water was a swirling flood when they reached the ford where a bridge should be. Those who had rubber boots had to pack the rest across the stream and it was several hours before men, ladies and baggage were safely transferred and the roadhouse to dry up and feed up at the elegant table which he pro- vided. Among those who came down were: Jas. P. Daily Mike Young, Jas. Connors, Mrs. Martell, Mrs. Johnston and family, H. Pear son, John Byrnes, c. E. Bum, Paddy Sweeny and Jim Fahey. It took them three or four hours to get everything across Iron creek and Mir. Young emphatically expressed the opinion that the Road Commis- sion should construct a bridge across the stream for the conven- fence of the travellers to and from the Kougarok.
