HEPPNER COAL FIELDS.
An Immense Quantity of Good Coal
in the Willow Creek Country.
"The Heppner coal fields are all
right," said W. E. Brock this after
noon. Mr. Brock has lust returneJ
from a visit to the recent find of
coal on the Willow Creek, 25 miles
southeast of the county seat of Mor
row county, and he Is very enthusl
astic over the prospects of a rich
thing for that country.
He continued: "There is now no
doubt but that there Is an immense
quantity of coal in tho Willow Creel:
country that the only thing that hat)
worked against its development up to
the present time was the fear that thi
quality was not up to the standard.
That has now been settled and n
longer Is there any fear on this score.
The company is developing the field
as fast as possible and as soon ar
the railroad Is built into the country
the magnitude of the fields will begin
to bo felt by the outside world. These
coal fields will be a great thing foi
Eastern Oregon. The time is fast ap
proachlng when the country will havj
to depend on coal for fuel and wit!.
this vast body cow in sight It will be
a boon for the country."
Mr. Brock has a sample of the coal,
which may be seen In Brock & Me
Comas' drug store.

CUT!
DONATES
TOWARD RAISING BANKS
OF THE WALLA WALLA.
Contract Let for tho Building of a
Wing Dam Above the Railroad
Bridge.
Tho county court has donated $150
toward raising tho banks of tho Wallu
Walla River, at Milton, to keep it
from overflowing this winter and du
stroylng valuablo lands and property
along the river bottom.
It will bo remembered that a meet
ing was held between tho Umatilla
and Walla Walla county commission
ers a few months ago to determine
what steps should be taken by the
two counties in protecting this land.
Each winter the water overflows and
damages moro or less very valuable
property and It was decided to have
the railroad company build a bridge
at that point to prevent obstruction
in the river. As the railroad company
will not build a bridge now, the citi
zens living along tho river decider!
that they would do what they could
to protect thomselvcs temporarllv
this winter. Tho two counties were
asked to donate toward this repair
lug and "Umatilla gave $160. What
Walla Walla county will give, has
not b'een made known, but tho con
tract has already been let for the
building of a wing dam above tho
railroad bridge and what Is needed
In excess of tho donations from tin;
two counties will bo furnished by the
citizens Interested. This dam will
only cost about $600.
WAS WOMAN A8SAULTED7
Ed Gaston, Charged With Rape, Is
Now In Jail.
Ed Gaston, colored, was arrested
last tilght on the chargo of rape,
sworn out by a woman giving he
name as Wilson, although her real
name is Jackson.
Mrs. Jackson la from Walla Walla
She came here a few weeks ago look
Ing for employment. Sho got work
In the lodging house over tho Last
Chance saloon. Last night she claims
no alip wns pnmincr out of her room
to go to dinner, about 7 o'clock, she
was met at tho door by Gaston, who
dragged her back Into the room. Ho
threatened to kill her If sho called
for help.
The night bartender came up from
the saloon to show a lodger a room
nml Mm Jackson, hcarinc them
screamed. Gaston made his escaps
from the building nnd about 10 o'clock
last night was arrested on the charge
of rape.
He claims that ho had been going
to see the woman and that he uai
been spending all his money on her,
but for some reason she became angry
and nrpfnrrpfl the ehariro acainst hlnii
Gaston is now in jail awaiting trial.
Name the Farm.
A delightful Innovation might be
made In our country districts at very
small expense. How much would It
add to the beauty and home-like ap
pearance of Umatilla county to have
a name for each farm. It would cost
but little and Its value would bo last-
Inc. It would show the originality
and Individuality of every farmer in
the county. IT would give tho ap
pearance of a permanent and content
ed hove-lovlng people. Just a plain,
suggestive name of the owner's
choice placed over tho great bam
yard gate, would bo sufficient. Wo
name all our other possessions. Tho
steamboat, the blooded colt and calf,
the dog, cow, horse and mule are all
christened. Our streets are named,
our Pullman cars have titles that
reach up and down tho entire cate
gory of saints; our rivers, mountains,
valleys and towns all have distin
guishing cognomens yet that pride
of tho American heart, the home, goes
through the -nviii without the sem
blance of a title. How delightful It
would be to the visitor, to rjde
through the great Umatilla wheat belt
and find the homes of our citizens so
reverenced and loved, as to be named
as sweetly as the twins and tho
shepherd dog. Name the farms with'
out delay.
Moody a Delegate.
It Is stated on good authority that
Hon. Malcolm A. Moody will be ap
pointed by Governor Geer a state del
egato to tho Irrigation convention to
be held In Portland November 19 and
19. Tho appointment will he a iudl
clous one. as Mr. Moody was a mem
ber of the committee on public lands
at Washington that reported tho na
tlonal irrigation Jaw. Dalles Chroni

CITY COUNCIL.
8ewerage Will Be Submitted to Vote
Usual Bills Allowed.
At tho regular council meeting last
night Chairman F. B. Clopton, of tho
sower commltteo, made his report
nnd recommended that a special election-
be held for the voters to decide
whether or not a 30,000 bond bo
voted by tho city for a seworago sys
tem. City Attorney C H. Carter was In
structed to drnw up tho necessary pa
pers preparatory to tho election and
report nt tho noxt council meeting
Then the dato for tho special election
will bo set, probably In December.
It Is thought that $30,000 will bo
amplo for 'he purpoao of Installing a
sower system. It has been decided
by tho city that a now system should
bo Installed nnd the council was
unanimous In Baying that tho sooner
this was done tho better for the town
and those who owned property here.
The $30,000 bonds. If voted by tho
citizens, will draw Interest of not
more than 5 per cent.
Tho time Is coming when tho prin
cipal streets will have to b'o paved
or macadamized. If this Is done bo
fore the sower pipes are put In, It
would bo necessary to tear up the
paved streets In many places to al
low the excavating for tho sower and
this would not only make the laying
of the sower more difficult, but' would
add many dollars to the cost of again
repairing tho streets, If the sower
pipes arc laid first, then when the
streets arc paved the work will be
completed.
Little other huslness was transact
ed by the council other than tho al
lowing of the following hills:
Mat Carney, $2; W. J. Clarke & Co
$3.75; Pendleton .Machine Shops, 50c;

SECOND CROP OF BERRIES.
Strawberries From Weston Mountain
Now on the Market Large Size an
Matured.
Strawberries in tho market on tho
5th day of November and the mercury
clown to the 30 mark, with heavy
frosts and tho ground frozen would
be a revelation to many people liv
ing in less favorable climes than Uma
tilla county.
Nevertheless, this is just what was
seen in Pendleton Wednesday. F. S
Younger & Son had several crates
of these delicacies. They were grown
on tho Weston mountain and aro tho
second crop from the same vines
This last statement would also bo de
nled by people who are not familiar
with the Oregon climate. To say that
sirawnernes will blossom and grow
nno rruit early in the spring and re
peat the same thing in tho fall, mnk
Ing two crops a year, can hardly bo
ueneveu Dy tnoso wno have not seen
it actually occur.
These strawberries, although out
of season, aro just as fine as can be
found In any country at any time of
year. They have grown to large size
ana matured well.
