STANDARD OIL COMPANY MAY
MOVE PLANT TO WALLA WALLA

There is no decision yet on the ap'
plication OF the standard OIL Co. for
franchise to maintain an enlarged
plant at the present location in the
west end of the city. After good
deal Of discussion at the council meet
ing last evening, the matter was post
poned until Friday eevning when an
adjourned meeting will be held.
A petition asking that the applica-
ton be not granted and that the com.
pany be required to move its plant to
some place where it will not endan,
ger property was presented. 1t was
signed by 25 or 80 property owners,
and Chief Of Police Gurdane, who cir
culated It. declared he could have Sc
cured 500 signatures.
Upon motion the petition was laid
on the table but the street commit
tee asked for further time to report,
giving as n reason a desire to exam
inc the petition and to investigate the
practicability of>having the oil tanks
placed under ground.
Col. ]. II. Raley, appearing for the
company urged immediate action. de.

pared and a force OF men waiting to
begin work upon an enlarged distrib-

The above is the wording of the
item of legislation attached to the In
dian appropriation bill as reported to
the senate by the senate committee on
Indian affairs. 1t is presumed the
clause will remain in the bill and ii
ually be adopted by both houses.
There are $50 Indians on the res.
ervation to whom allotments have
never been made, according to Major
Swartzlander Most of these Indians
are children. some full bloods, some
breeds. Figuring so acres as the
maximum allotment 1t will require
$4,000 acres of land to provide for the
leeds of those now listed. This
would leave from $4,000 to $4,000
acres of tribal land as the tribal land
now has an area of from 5000 10
$4,000 acres.
