From City Officials

To the citizens of the city of Pendle-
ton:
Referring to the proposed charter
amendment providing bonds for the
construction of a septic tank, it is the
intention of the common council and
always has been to issue only so many
bonds and no more. than are abso-
lutely necessary to complete Il septic
tank according to plans approved by
/ the State Board of Health; to pur-
chase or condemn the land in the
/ Doherty tract; to place the land em-
braced therein in proper condition
for the location and use of said tank
and to make only such extensions of
broadway and sewer thereto as Are
convenient and necessary to insure
the proper use and operation Of said
tank when complete.
The council has never been and is
not now committed to the purchase
of any particular body of land for the
septic tank purposes. 1t did consider
the desirability of purchasing the
Richardson tract, at the same time it
acquired the Doherty land, but It now
appears that public sentiment is
against the acquiring of any other
property than is absolutely necessary
at this time for the construction and
Operation of the septic tank, the un-
dersigned therefore further say that
no part of the bond issue will be used
for the purchase of the Richardson
tract, except so much as may be ne
cessary for the extension of Court
street.
Referring to the proposed bond is
| sue for the purpose of acquiring and
| improving parks and camping grounds
the undersigned beg TO state It has
never been the intention of the COM
mon council to use any part of this
fund if it is authorized, for the i'm
provement of property to be acquired
for septic tank purposes and that
none of the money, if authorized will
be used for that purpose.
The members of the council take
this opportunity to say that they are
constrained by a knowledge of the
prevailing depression in making OF
authorizing any expenditure of public
| funds. All of the members of the
common council are tax payers in the
city of Pendleton and at all times
sensitive to the public demand for a
conservative disposition of public
moneys and that as far as consistent
with the demands of public necessity
and economy they have no disposition

TAXPAYERS MEETING

wipe out this deficit so the city can
escape paying six per cent interest on
the warrants.
The second report read to the meet
ing was one from the members of the
city council which was presented by
Mayor G. A. Hartman. In this report,
the city council made plain its stand in
regard to the expenditure of public
money,
The mayor also answered q number
of questions during the course of the
meeting. Among other things, he ex-
lplained that:
Ii the taxpayers of Pendleton vote
to increase the tax levy from $4,000
to $4,000 for 1922. the base amount to
be used for computing the six per cent
increase allowed under the state law
for 1928 will not be $92, 900 but $75,-
loco. In other words, according tc
Mayor Hartman, by granting the
council $4,000 fer operating expenses
in 1922, the taxpayers do not establish

DR.. BARTON'S
DAMYLETTER
LIVING FASTER.
By DIR. VIM. E. Barton.

A BRAHAM Lincoln delivered his
address in Cooper Institute New
York, on Monday, Feb. 27. The pre-
ceding day he had heard Henry
Ward Beecher preach. That address
was one of the notable steps in his
ascent to the presidency.
No Chicago paper, as am inform
ed by a man who has recently search
ed the files, made reference to the
address next day, though to Illinois
it was of great moment. Apparently
no single word was telegarphed from
New York.
Chicago papers in 1860 wasted
very little money in telegraphing.
They could wait for the mails and so
could their readers.
But in 1885, when the revised YER
sion of the New Testament was
brought out a Chicago newspaper
had every word of it telegraphed
from New York where the first copy
had just arrived that it might appear
in full in print "a hours earlier than
if sent by mail.
SO much of change had been
wrought in 25 years. To be sure, the
New Testament was more important
than even Lincoln's speech, but peo-

drama; no art is lost. This great play
lives again in greater scope and
grandeur through his touch and vivi-
fication When Lottie Blair Parker
and Joseph Grismer brought forth
this drama at time before people
were accustomed to think in or of
the theater it was referred to as a
rural play; Griffith has utilized it
to bring forth the story of woman's
soul and thus lay bare truths as ur-
ban as Broadway and as universal as
the skies. In this picturiztion, spec
tators are transformed from pasto-
raj solitudes to the glitter of city
life, thus furnishing a series of con-
trasts that enhance the dramatic val
ues of the offering. The delightful
comedy scenes of simple country folk
are retained and even amplifed, while
the finale brings forth the great snow
storm scenes ending with the stupen-
dous crashing ice-gorge, all of which
are presented in manner the public
has come to expect in Griffith pro-
duction. The orchestral accompani-
ment is said to be the most preten-
tious yet attempted in connection
with photo-drama presentation.

pie already had the Testament and
besides, the Testament was longer
and more expensive.
Living faster is no assurance of
living better; but neither is there
virtue or saving grace in being be-
hind the methods of ones own day
and generation.
Trousers may be less graceful than
a Roman toga, But the man of today
cannot do business in the garb of the
days of Noah or of julius Caesar or
of Adam.
We move with our age or we are
left behind. There is no virtue in
living in the past. The past was
present yesterday and today it is as
certainly past as the days of Hani-
bal and Xerxes. The language the
method, the mental approach must
be those of today.
There was a time when no railroad
used a telegraph line for its own
business; but the railroad that would
thus operate today would go out of
business with great crash. Every
business must conduct itself in the
life and spirit of its own generation.
And that is as true of education and
religion as it is of anything else.
