The Heppner Gazette . Established March SO, 1883. ISSUED THURSDAY MORNING. Warnock to Harlan. Entered at the Postofflce at Heppner Oregon, ai econd-claas matter. Thursday August 4, 1904 m i ( PROSPERITY THE ISSUE. There is only one issue in the comiDg National campaign. It is a question of voting for or against prosperity. This is the whole thing in a nut shell. Not only the truck farmer of New England, but the wheat grower of Minnes ota, the corn grower of Kansas, the sugar grower of Louisiana, the cotton planter of Georgia, back to the wool grower of the "West and the tobacco planter of Virginia and Connecticut, way to the fruit grower of California the capital ist, the mill worker, the railroad hand, the merchant and the clerk, the professional man every one, from the most elevated position to the humblest must vote for or against prosperity. Our friends on the other side are looking for an issue. They need not worry, the issue is look ing for them. Prosperity is the issue, and all other questions are secondary. The American stand ard of living, American manhood and American homes are but the resultants of Republican legisla tion, the sequences of a protective tariff which brought to us and will continue to give us an unprece dented age of luxury, an un- paralled era of prosperity. France has a peasant problem on her hands. There is danger of a return of the conditions that preceded the great revolution. The rapid increase in the number of large properties and the disappear ance of the peasant's farm have menaces which seem immediate and far-reaching to Ludovic Gon- tenson, writing in the Revue de Paris. The whole tendency of the times, this writer declares, is to aggregate land into large proper ties and force the peasants to be come mere employes of the landed proprietors, thus destroying their independence as citizens. He of fers no special plau for the solu tion of the difficulty, but declares that another gory revolution may be the result of the constantly in creasing influence and size of the landed properties. A BUSINESS PROPOSITION. White Salmon Enterprise. Take your choice between Roos evelt and a record, and Parker and a promise with Hill for secu rity. AND WELL THEY N1UIIT. White Salmon Enterprise. The Democrats view a good many things with alarm, in their platforms. If they would just in clude Nov. 8th they would be about perfect. Ditch creek now has a large popula tion, and wonderful are some of the stories that come from the mighty hunters and mountain climbers who are enjoying the pleasures of the Blue mountains. Lew Kinney is one of the mightiest hunters and it is reported that his escape from buck ague was miracu lous one day this week. Lew ventured from camp loaded down with artillery and found four deer. It is said that the leer actually laughed out loud as they leisurely strolled away. Sam Van Vactor rode one of Billy Spence's pack mules over to "Hippopotamus," and they eay that Sam hasn't done anything since. Neither has the male. It is a merry crowd at Ditch creek end they are all having a good time. For Sale Team, buggy, double and single harness cheap.

But how? Here we have it: Cut the prices clear down below the profit line, deep into the first cost of the goods. Then they will move out, and do so quickly, so that is what this grand Reduction Sale means. We have put the knife into the prices of every thing in summer goods and cut them, regardless of cost or profit. STAPLE COTTON GOODS CHEAPER HERE NOW Will not some of these prices interest you?
