LANDMARK IX POLITICS
PASSES INTO HISTORY
Salem, Ore. When the carpenter's
hammer and saw began the remodel
ing of the Hotel Willamette this week
there passed out of existence one of
the oldest landmarks in the history of
the city and one of the most Inter
esting hostelries In the northwest
Owing Its birth to business jealousy
and rivalry, It never during the course
of Its career paid Its owners a divi
dend, and but few of its tenants ever
reaped financinl benefit from its op
eration. Hut it enjoyed the distinction
for several years of being one of the
finest hotels in the northwest, and
within Its walls much of the political
history of the state of Oregon has
been made political fortunes won and
lost.
Ever since the hotel was construct
ed It has served as the political head
quarters for the members of the leg
islature during the legislative session,
and It has been the scene of many
political storms and battles.
The hotel is now to be completely
remodeled by its owner, the Capital
Investment company, which will
upend 175,000 in doing so.
A Night Alarm.
Worse than an alarm of fire at
night is the metallic cough of croup
bringing dread to the household.
Careful mothers keep Foley's Honey
and Tar In the house and give It at
the first sign of danger. Foley's Hon
ey and Tar has saved many little
lives and Is the only safe preparation
for children as it contains no opiates.

(Special Correspondence )
Heppner, Ore., March 10. March
was ushered in with a succession of
warm, sunshiny days and has left
Morrow county little to ask for In the
line of fine spring weather. The hills
with their new grass growing nicely,
give promise of some good pasture,'
and the sheep have been turned out
to rustle for themselves. This la a
great solace to the sheepmen, for, on
account of the length and severity of
the winter the cost of wintering the
sheep this year has been from twenty
to twenty-five per "cent more than
during the ordinary year. Owing to
the unusual length of time the sheep
men were compelled to feed, the sup
ply of hay and grain In tlie local mar
kets was totally exhausted. However,
sufficient grain was shipped In to
supply the demand for feed, and It is
estimated that the losses sustained by
the sheepmen in this county despite
the unusual conditions, were very lit
tle, if any, more than normal.
Fortunately there were less sheep
In Morrow county this year than ordi
narily. On account of the late rains
last fall, twenty thousand Iambs were
sold In this county, to be shipped to
winter pasture In Montana. This fact
In a measure accounts for the better
care taken of the remaining sheep.
According to good authority, the sheep
are in as good condition this year as
usual at this time of the year, and
there seems to have been no damage
done to the wool.
Lambing season is near at hand
now, and it is estimated that the in
crease in lambs will be about nor
mal. There are practically no cattle In
Morrow county this year, and those
few who did run cattle were prepared
to care well for them, consequently
the loss sustained by them was only
the usual winter loss.
The grain Is beginning to come up
nicely and if the favorable conditions
we now have continue, Morrow coun
ty bids fair to have a prosperous year.
