At this time some considerable interest is be ing manifested and probable can didates for Mayor and council men have been mentioned. Many friends of Supt. Notson have lm portuned that gentleman to allow his name to go on the ticket for Mayor, but we understand he has definitely decided not to do so. w. W. fcimeaa is iavoraoiy mentioned for the place and receiving strong endorsement by leading business men. Just what he has decided to do with regard to allowing his name to go on the ticket, we are not at liberty to say at present. If there be other candidates for this place their names have not been made known to us. For councilmen, J. F. Vaughn, Chas. Thomson and W 0. Minor will run, and others may get into the field. J. P, Williams, present incumbent, and Councilman Cornett will contest for the position of recorder, and Mr. Bnggs will be a candidate to succeed himself as treasurer, There is nothing at this time to indicate a very spirited con test, yet a few days may bring forth rival candidates and a lively scrap be the result. If there is any one question coming up to be settled at this election, it is certainly the ques tion of proper police regulation in this town. Our people have been patient and long suffering but if we mistake not the temper of a very large maiority of our good people, patience has about ceased to be a virtue, and the demand is going forth for a complete change m this department. It should also be understood that better conditions can be made to prevail in the matter of enforcing the laws and regula tions governing the liquor busi ness here. According to indict ments recently turned in by the grand jury, we have a right to believe that there is gambling going on in different resorts in Heppner. In fact there was good reason to expect more indict ments than the jury found, but a combination of circumstances seemed to prevent. Better conditions can and should be brought about, and the City of Heppner should at least be in a position to co-operate heartily with the leading peace officer of the county and assist in all proper ways in enforcing what whole some laws we have. The time is ripe to make the change. Pendleton will make a present to Miss Jessie Wilson, the White House bride, in the shape of one of their famous Indian robes. It will be sent as a gift from Pen dleton business men. people who desired to get to the other side of the street were forced to wade in mud around the wagon.

That slogan, "Do your Christ mas shopping early," evidently does not apply to Heppner. If we are going to have a holiday season let us begin before Thanks giving, ana not wait until tne zuin of December or later to open up. Many people wishing to make gifts to send away patronize the ever alert catalog house for the very articles which later in the season appear in the local dealer's window. In this day of rush and hurry it is not out of order to be gin Christmas preparations as early as November 1. If a thing is worth doing at all why not do it right Why do teamsters persistently block the crossings with their wagons or teams in order that they may carry on a lengthy con versation with someone who has stopped them in the middle of the street? A particularly no ticeable instance was that one on Main street one day last week. It was just after a heavy rain and the streets were very muddy. On the edge of this particular blocked cross-walk the mud was soft and ankle deep. Yet a fel- j low stopped his team on this! crossing for ten minutes that he j I Jumped Board Bill. Deputy Sheriff George McDuf fee returned from Pendleton, Monday, with Harry Snider, who is wanted here for jumping his board bill. Snider also , wrote bad checks that would amount to $125 should several business men here and at lone care to prose cute him. Snider is an insurance agent working for the Idaho State Life Insurance Co. He wrote a goodly amount of insurance around here but his business did not bring in sufficient funds and he resorted to the above method. At pres ent the only charge against him is that of jumping his board bill. He is awaiting trial in the county jail. Thanksgiving Service. The annual Thanksgiving ser vice for Heppner will be held at the M.E. church South, on Thurs day, November 27, at 10.30 a.m. Complete arrangements have not been made as to the speaker but this will be announced from the pulpits on Sunday. By request of the pastor, Rev. Goulder, the different choirs of the town are invited to meet to arrange music tor the occasion, at the M. E. church, South, on next Tuesday eyening. It is earnestly desired that there be a goodly represen tation of singers present that the music may have the attention it is entitled to receive. Fine Irrigon Apples. Harry Cummin gs has this week been passing out among his friends in town, samples of Ir rigon. Winesaps. ihe truit is very tancy. It is beautifully colored, crisp and delicious of flavor. Harry is handling these apples which are not execelled anywhere; in fact we have seen nothing from the ffamous apple- growing sections of the North west compares with these in any way. , Special Sample Books of wall-paner and a large stock on hand at the Case Furniture Co.
