THE HONORABLE
 CHAMP CLARK

"For president in 1920, the Hon. orable Champ Clark" This battlecry
 has already been heard in Missouri, 1 and, if the Speaker of Uncle Sans house of representatives is alive and enjoying good health in 1920, 1t Is more than likely that he will be prominent contender in the race for the democratic presidential nomina- , tion.
 The Honorable Champ is sixty-sev
 en years old today, as he was born on March z, 1850, in Anderson county, Ky. He was christened James Beau champ Clark, and in his salad days, he was known by the imposing name Of J. Beauchamp Clark. The middle
 name, of course, should be pronoun- ced "Beecham,'' but when young MT. Clark, after brief experience as president of Marshall College in West Virginia, settled in Pike county, Mo-, to practice law, the natives called him Champ" for short. MT. Clark, as an ] astute politician, was not slow to req llze that J. Beauchamp was unsuited to Pike county democracy, and he
 gladly accepted his new name. Hence
 forth he was Champ Clark, and his
 official biographies now make no 1 mention of the patrician J. Beau
 champ.
 | Speaker Clark will be seventy years 1 old in 1920, which is rather aged for
 presidential timber, but he is chip
 per and lively granddad, and his
 friends confidently believe that he
 will be able to make a strong race
 for the nomination which escaped
 him in 1912. It is considered rather
 unlikely that he will have the support
 or President Wilson, since he has not
 always been in sympathy with the
 Presidents policies, and he is also at
 outs with the Bryan wing of the 1 democracy It is not unlikely that 1 MT. Bryan himself will be Speaker
 Clark's rival for the nomination, pro-
 v1ded the Nebraskan can convert the
 rank and file of the party to the pa-
 clfist and prohibition issues on which,
 It Is intimated, he depends for his
 next try at the White House.
 Speaker Clark's father came of. old
 New England stock, while his moth
 CTS people, the Beauchamps, were of cavalier ancestry. It is related that
 the Speakers father was a pacifist, in l his way. He asserted that he was for
 peace at any price, and boasted of be-
 Ing a coward, but after he had given l several men terrible drubbings for
 putting his cowardice to the test mo-
 body would believe his peaceful pre-
 tensions. The Clarks were democrats
 and the Beauchamps were whigs, and
 Tn J. Beauchamp's youth he was con-
 sanity being subjected to bribes from | one side or the other Finally his
 father gave him a pony on condition
 that he stick up for the democrats
 and he has. been 8 democrat ever since.

COAL. SHORTAGE Il
 MAY CLOSE ALL BELGIAN SHOPS

4. {.
 Amsterdam, March '. via London The Telegraaf says there will be an almost complete stoppage of industry in Belgium within a few days, the German authorities asserting that this is necessary because of the lack of coal and transport facilities. Vir- tually the entire population of Bel gium will be thus unemployed, with such few exceptions as receive special permission from the civil authorities to continue their businesses.
 Twenty thousand lrilos of coffee be- longing to the Belgian relief commis- sion was lost in a fire that destroyed a storehouse at Hasse1t, according to the sTelegraaf. A quantity of other foodstuffs was also burned. The Tel egraaf says that two persons have been deported to Germany in connec- ton with the fire.

WHITE SLAVE" CASE
 RULING TO STAND

Washington, March 7.-The Su- preme court yesterday refused to re- open or reconsider it's recent decision in the 'tDiggs-C s-Caminetti white slave cases and denied the application of F. Drew Caminetti of Sacramento for rehearing of it's decree affirming his conviction.
 The clause in the tariff law grant ing a five per cent. discount in du- ties to imports brought in American ships or ships of nations with which the United States has favored nation treaties was annulled as unconstitu- tional by the court.
 The court sustained Judgment in a suit by Thomsen & Co.,, New York shippers, against Sir Charles w. Cay ser and other British ship owners for triple damages under the Sherman law for alleged combination of steam ship shipping to South Africa in 1899.

POLLUTION BILLS
 ATTRACT ATTENTION

Bills prohibiting pollution of streams in the state with sewage and providing for the disposal of factory waste brought a large attendance to the hearing of the committee on pub lie health and safety yesterday.
 Hon. Lewis Sperry of East Windsor Hill, speaking for the state board of health, which he characterized as "a bunch of doctors" was very much op- posed to the bill instructing the board of health to investigate meth ods for sewage disposal. A state san- itary engineer could perhaps attend to that business, he thought.
 Cheney Brothers in Manchester fa- vored that bill because they had gone to considerable expense for the erec- tion and maintenance of a. sewage disposal plant, which was proving a failure. They had-tried almost every conceivable plan without success and were desirous of having the State take a hand in the matter.
 Milward R. Newsome, representins the Connecticut Trap Shooters League, favored Senator Hunts bill for an investigation by the state OONA U OA AAOoACiA O4 clA 1dClOIy WdSIGS He quoted statistics showing that one-eighth the food product of the country is fish. However, fish coul6 not thrive in polluted waters. Eng land and Germany had solved tht problem of the disposal of factory waste. and he believed that it could bt settled here.
 Dr. E K. Root of the state board of health said he would be in favor of some plan for the utilizing of fac toryNwaste. He told of the great ex pense which New Britain went to fol filter bed system. which was a fail ure on account of the factory vast, emptied into it.
 John H. Buck and Ralph O. We'll | representing the Manufacturers As sociation of Connecticut favored tn | creation of a commission to arrive a | a solution of the factory waste prob | lem.
 F. S. Beardsley of Stafford suspect l ed that the manufacturers were try l ing to slave off action. Especial, the bill setting 1945 as a time uni seemed to be calculated for that pur pose, he thought.

MOLLY MOGG

Three of the greatest bards of eighteenth century England collabor- ated in writing ballad which has served to render immortal the name of Molly Mogg. It was 151 years ago today that the fair Molly passed away, at the age of sixty-siX. having re- mained all her life a spinster. Her unmarried states seems difficult to account for, in considering the ex- travagant praise bestowed upon her charms in the ballad of Swift, Pope and Gay. In 1726 .nrs tuneful trio spent some time at Workingham tavern, called the Rose. The 1anlord, John Mogg, had two daughters, Molly and Sally. Literary historians say that in reality it was Sally Mogg who was the cruel beauty celebrated in the ballad, "but the wits were too far gone to distinguish, and so the honor has clung to Molly.''

PENDLETON 81 YRS.

Lot Livermore, first mayor of PEN
dIeton and one of the oldest pioneers
in Umatilla county, is today celebrat-
ing the 51st anniversary Of his arriv-
al in UmatilIa county.
1t was on the last day Of February.
1866. that he stepped off a steamer
at the little, town of Umatllla. He had
accepted a clerlship in mercantile
establishment at that place and was
scheduled TO begin his duties on jan
uary 1. However, the river had been
frozen and there being no railroad in
to these parts then. he had waited
until the first steamer could make its
way up with any assurance of arriv-
ing.
Prior to coming to Umatilla he had
lived IN Portland for a year, and prior
to that in Polk county for IA years,
having settled there after crossing
the plains behind oxen in 1851. He
has been a continuous resident Of
Umatilla county since 1866.
After clerking for time at Una
tilla he became associated with ]. p.
Bushee and Harker Bros. of Portland
in a mercantile establishment there
In 1868 the partners decided TO close
out their business and Mr. Livermore
came to Pendleton on July 25 of thai
year with a portion of the stock 10

intention of remaining here. Pendie-
ton had just been laid out then and
there but seven houses here. OF the
few residents of Pendleton at that
time there is only one living here now
besides Mr.. LiYermore. He is d. w.
Bailey, the attorney, who was then a
small boy. The late Mrs. Aura Raley
and James Jacobs were among the
residents whom Mr.. -LLEermore- mel
on his arrival here.
Contrary to his intentions, Mr.. Liv-
ermore remained in Pendleton and
has made this city his home ever
since He has seen it develop from its
earliest infancy as a village to a city

biggest of its size in the whole coun-

FINE IRRIGATION
SEASON INDICATED
MRS. whecldon.


Indicating that Umatilla county
will have one of the best irrigation
seasons in recent years is the fact that
Butter Creek has been flowing for
the past three weeks during which
time farmers at the lower end have
been irrigating. Butter Creek usu-
ally begins flowing about March l,
according to Water Master L. A.
Reineman.
Already 1900 acres Of land adjacent
to Butter Creek have been irrigated.
according to the water master. BY
mutual agreement among the settlers
along the creek those at the lower
end take the first water inasmuch as
the sround at the upper end is gem
orally frozen until late in March.
Under the direction Of the water mas
ter every drop of the water which has
come down Butter Creek so far has
been utilized and the 1900 acres that
have been irrigated TO date have re-
ceived enough water to insure two
crops of alfalfa, he states.
The last little cold snap has frozen
the ground and put a temporary stop
to the irrisating.
