Oh, do you remember the years
long ago, when the Me Dowell
boats, Defiance, Dove, Dart, and
Daily made their regular daily
runs from Seattle to Tacoma call
ing at all the docks between on
both the mainland and the east
side of Maury and Vashon?
And do you remember how we
all grumbled about our made
quate boat service?
We could go to Seattle three
times a day it we wanted to for
16 cents a trip if we bought a
Communication ticket or for Is cts
if we purchased single ticket,
and carry a whole family of
children free until they were old
enough to get married, for the
children never seemed to grow
up-to the McDowells.
But there were those who
grumbled even then about the
price and about the boat schedule.
They wanted the fare reduced to
10 cents, and they wanted an
evening boat to take them to the
city to the theatre and bring
them home afterward.
There were those who grumbl-
ed because the boats were too
slow or too cold or too hot or
too dirty or because they had TO
pass Thorough the engine room
and the smoking room to get to
the ladies' cabin, when the floor

A letter from Miss Ella j.
Caughey, who has been in Mo
line, Illinois nearly a year, tells
us that her mother, whom she
has been nursing all this time,
passed away ON the l4th of this
month. Had she lived until the
3lst she would have completed
her seth year. She is survived
by a family Of seven daughters
and three sons. She had lived
a long life of Christian useful
ness and died resting safe in the
arms Of Jesus,
The Moline Daily says of her:
Mrs. Caughey was a joy to her
entire community and a special
comfort to her neighbors and rel
atives, Her life was a busy one,
but she was never too busy or
too tired to minister to the sick
or sympathize with the sorrow
ing
Miss Caughcy's neighbors will
testify to the fact that this beau
tiful trait of her mothers char
actcr has been transmitted TO her
daughter and blesses the com
munity in which she lives. All
who know her sympothige deep
| ly with her in her present sor-
row. 1t is universally hoped that
Miss Caughey will return to her
home here in the early spring,
as she is greatly missed and her
garden needs her as do her neigh
bors who will gladly welcome her
back again.

Chicago, Ill.--Threat of another rail-
way strike was indicated here when
the railway employees department Of
the American Federation Of Labor
(shop crafts employes) voted at its
biennial convention to send out strike
ballots to its 100000 members.
Seven unions are involved, including
the six federated shop crafts and the

The chief grievance of the men, ac-
cording to B. M. Jewell, president Of
the department, is over the alleged
violation by the railroads Of rulings
of the railroad labor board through
the farming out" system Of handling
railway shop work. The unions charge
that the roads, by contracting with
outside shops to do railway repair
work, are In reality resorting to sub
terfuge to evade the rulings of the
board.

Is In Possession of Prose-
cution--A Woman Juror.

The prosecution in the case Of
Charles vonderahe, charged with the
murder of Matt Jepson. recluse of
Government mountain. last August,
came into the open last Tuesday and
began forging the chain Of circum-
stantial evidence it hopes will lead
the jury to vote for conviction Of
the accused.
In the opening statement for the
state Monday night, District Attor-
ney F. l. Keator gave no inkling Of
the character of the evidence which
has been amassed against the defen-
dant. Tuesday it was made plain
that no direct evidence was in the
possession Of the prosecution which
would link Vonderahe with the crime
and that the effort to convict would
be based entirely upon circumstan-
tial case. The jury consists Of the
following persons: Percy E. Haskell.
Harry Ballou, Frank Garrett, Herman

William Purchase, Norman A. Hum

Car Driven By Ray McCarroII Of
PendIenton SWerves Into a
Collision, Head-on.

DR.. F. v. Prim of Hermiston, was
seriously injured Friday evening on
the highway east of town, when a
car driven by Ray McCarroll of Pen
dleton collided with the doctors auto
mobile headon.
The smashup from all reports is
attributed to reckless driving of Nc
Carroll, who was accompanied by
Bruce Bender and Jack Miller of Pen
dleton. McCarroll claims that Ben
der who was drunk, grasped the steer
ing wheel and turned the machine in
to Prim's car.
Both machines were badly wrecked,
Prim's car was brought to the Zerba
garage in Athena, and McCarroll's IS
car was taken to Pendleton,
DR.. C. H. Smith Of this city found
Prim's injuries to consist of a cut
over one of his eyes, scalp wounds,
one at the base of the skull and a
cut on one wrist, besides various bru-
ises. Mr.. Bennett Of Salem who was
riding with DR.. Prim was not ser
iously injured.
McCarroll had one of his shoulders
jammed up in the wreck, and Miller
had cut across the bridge Of his
nose. Bender fled after the collision.
Earlier in the day he was fined $25
in Judge Richards court for speed
ing, having been caught at Weston on
complaint of the traffic officer and
brought to Athena for his hearing.
A Pendleton paper says he was but
recently released from the county Jail
after serving a term for bootlegging

fore for reckless driving, and a yeal
ago had his drivers license revoked

Athena-Weston Post American Legion Has
Completed the Organization Of Rifle Club

The local post Of the American Le-
gion have organized Rifle club
which will be affiliated with the Nat

and have extended an invitation to
the Local sportsman.
The dues so far are $3.50 per year.
This entities the member to the use
Of the range and the use of gov
ernment gun anil 100 rounds of SER
vice ammunition and 200 rounds of
Sub-caliber ammunition. It also gives
the member the privilege of buying
gun from the government at a
very nominal cost of about six dol
lars and ammunition for same at the
rate of one cent per each shot.
This is a wonderful chance for To-
cal sportsmen to get an exceptionally
good gun for very little money. This
same gun would cost SIS to $100
were one to buy it elsewhere. Those
who have been buying ammunition for
a rifle in the past will readily see
that the price Of the shells are only
a small fraction Of what they have
been paying.
The club intends to have a good
time and good practice at the same
time. The membership to date is as

Roosevelt Highway Traverses Continent
From Portland Maine, to Portland Oregon

Representatives of the Oregon Tour
ist and Information Bureau. an or
ganization created by legislative act
were in the city Tuesday in the in
terest Of the proposed Roosevelt High
way. They were: Jos. P. Jaeger and
Sydney B. Vincent The party left
during the forenoon for Milton. The
gentlemen were on a soliciting visit,
desiring funds to defray cost Of ad-
vertising the highway an apportioned
Athena's share at $25.
A branch office of the Oregon
Tourist and Information Bureau will
be opened in Pendleten, May 18th,
according to announcement made by
the party while in Athena. The fol-
lowing concerning the Roosevelt
Highway is from the Oregon Jour
nal.
This week an expedition will leave
Portland for Eastern Oregon cities.
It's mission is to increase interest in
the Theodore Roosevelt national high
way. It will be headed by represen-
tatives Of the Oregon Tourist and In
formation Bureau.
It is impossible to estimate the mo-
tor travel which would be attracted
to the West by such highway. Mul-
titudes would traverse such route
the first season.
I 1t is intended that ultimately the
Roosevelt highway shall be such a
paved thoroughfare. Its distinctive
Importance above other named high
ways is that it leads from "Port-
land, Maine, to Portland, Oregon"
It's constant influence is to define
Portland, Oregon as the destination
of all Western-seeking travel.
The route of the Roosevelt high
way is international. It leads
through the placid and semi-rugged
vistas Of New England. It threads
the Great Lakes, now on the Amer
ican, now on the Canadian shore.
1t reaches to the rim Of the horizon
in the Mid-Western wheat zone,
crosses the Rockies and via Spokane,
Lewiston, Walla Walla, Athena, PEN
dleton, Umatilla and the Columbia
river highway, reaches Portland.
