There la more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other dlseuea put
together, and until the- last few yean
was supposed to be Incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced It a
local disease and prescribed local reme
dies, and by constantly falling to cure
with local treatment, pronounced It Incur
able. Science has proven Catarrh to be a
constitutional disease, and therefore re
quires constitutional treatment. Hall's
Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only
Constitutional cure on the market. It Is
taken Internally- It acts directly on the

DEAD OX FLAT, Oreg., May 16.
The stables and hog house of Mr. Vin
cent burned during the fierce wind
Wednesday. How the house escaped
is more than we can understand as
the wind carried the flames almost di
rectly toward it. We did not learn
the origin of tho fire.
The freeze of late has killed all
the fruit. Seems as though tho ele
ments are at war as well as the
peoples of the world. High winds and
frosts have been the source of much
anxiety.
Mrs. Guy Morgan made a visit to
their dry land home last Thursday and
found tho house had been broken in
to and ransacked.' Nothing seemed
to nave been carried away, but a
thorough rummage of everything had
been made and every thing left scat
tered about tho premises.
A. S. Witbeck completed his job of
fe'ncing for Mr. Carter last week.
Jewey Rice finished disking for Ro
land Hall last week and he and his
brother, Chas., A. T. McDonald and
Levi Crull spent Sunday measuring
up the land. It was some job as a
high ragged bluff skirts across three
forties of it biting deep gorges into
that lino of tho clearing.
It is reported the herd law propo
sition is to bo voted on in Fair Pre
cinct the coming election. It is a
great injustice for the irrigated por
tion of a precinct by its superior vot
ing capacity to vote such a calamity
upon the dry land farmers back in
the hills. Without tho free grass
which abounds on the public domain
on tho high lands a dry farmer CAN
NOT MAKE IT. We have already
heard several of the oldest dry land
farmers of the North and South Ja
cobson Gulches say they will have
to give up in despair if the herd law
is voted onto them. Why not wait
then with the proposition and give the
legislature a chance to pass a law
enabling herd law districts to be form
ed irrespective of precincts or any
other municipal district?
When thickly populated irrigated
districts could vote their territory
herd law without depriving their
struggling fellow creature lying back
in the hills of the easiest income he
has in his hard struggle for existence
on a dry ranch. The dry rancher is
the pioneer the demonstrator to the
outside world of the practicability of
living or starving on Malheur county
homesteads. Is it right and honest
to luro him into the county and then
rob him of tho one sure thing hoi is
entitled to? Sheepmen, I suppose,
would be glad if there were not a
homesteader outside of the Snake riv
er bottom.
