TtIK news of the death of Hon. John
F. Swift, U. S. Minister to Japan, readi
ed tins country ou the lllli inn!. He was
a republican, lint was too plain spoken
and hunest to be popular witli the
masses.
It 13 likely that the road to Dayville
will be built anyhow, and, a la Cuss
county, the right to the 5 per oent. fuini
settled in the courts. If we lose there,
no one ill be injured much, aa the road
must be built.
Although a bill was paased at the
last session of the legislature providing
for an additional circuit judge in t lie
first judicial disiriet, the governor finds
that lie cannot make t lit, appointment,
because of some alleged defect lu the
bill.
Is Mr. J. P. Unillev's letter, published
in last week's issue, where it read "the
banks are exempt from taxation," slumlo
have been "their bords are exempt iruin
taxation." This correction is made lu
justice to Mr. fladley, whom we have no
desire to misrepresent in any way.
Wool rates East and to San Francisco
will be reduced so low this season thai
there is no excuse in shipping fiom other
poiuts. The finest assoi tmeut of wool;,
raised in the Northwest will come to
Heppner for sale and ahipmeut. Tin
buyers coiae where the wools are, aim
one olip sells another.
Amonci the many persons mentioned as
suitable timber to represent ttie seouno
Congressional district of Oregon, we heal
the uaiueot lion. VV. K. Ellis, ul ilcppnci.
lie is a man of mature age and judg
ment, has acknowledged anility, and is a
lawyer by protessiou. lie is in ever.i
respect pre-eminently fitted to represeni
our district. Tho republican party will
do well to select him as their nominee
one year hence.
Ah THE 13. 0. says, why couldn't the
state of Oregon, or rattier Salem, "go:
along" without a dome for the stale
house, two ) ears longer, just as well la
the "cow" counties and other sections
can do without state roads? And it it
also be very consistent to uak why tin
governor did not follow up his policy tu.u
veto the appropriation ol $110,1100 for tin
portage railroad at the Cascades, whicl
benefits only one county, that of 'aso 'i
Peiiuoyer has more symptoms of a dema
gogue than uny man the Gazette kuowt
of.
Oob friend, J. V. Wellington, of tin
ruyallup Coinineioe, very truthfully
Bays: 'One of the worst feature of any
tow n, and one that does it more nij r.
than anything else is the system u
faction lighting sometimes indulged in
by somu of its residents. Opposing in
teresls clash together where if lhe
would liannoni.e and co operate, greai
good would result to the eniire coiiiiuu
mty. i'aelicui fights never beiielitieil
any town, and never will, and towns thai
should lie on the high road to prosperity
are hindered anil held back by fhein."
A Ni.w OiujKakh mob, ooiuposed of
the "best eitizoiiH," lynched some ltal
iau murderers at that (dace last ."Sunday
it is likely to become an an internation
al issue between the United Males ami
llaly. It is claiineiHhat, the mob aecoru
plished w hat tin' jury should have done.
The murderers of Chief Hennessey Iuhi
October, met a descving fate which ii
bribed jury would not inlliet. let mob
Violence is to be deplored under any cir
cumstances, it would have been liettei
to have meted out lawful punishment ti
the corrupt jurymen, leudermg a rope
tifiou nf their acts less likely in the t'u
tiue. There lies the seat of the trouble.
Thtc national debt is being paid as fas
as it- becomes due, and in some cases,
even before it is due. Only a short linn
ago, many millions were paid oil' at i,
premium, to relieve the sfi ingency ol
the times. The national banking s siou,
is a creation of the late war, and has been
found reliable, safe, and equitable evei
since, lu course of time ell bonds wib
have been redeemed. In the event ot
the filial repeal of the national banking
act, the oounlrv will sillier, unless soim
similar plan is put in force. Without
doubl, bunkers would just as soon de
posit coin for their circulation as bonds.
The hih premium on bonds and tlu
taxes to the government take all tin
profit accruing from iiitereston the hnndt
used as security. It is not so much the
increased profits of national liauking
that make them popular, but rather the
demands of the business world.
If a person will think just oiUMiiomeiit,
they will know that hunt is the snuice ol
all production. Ibid seasous make ban
crops, winch puts our farmers in ver.i
bad humor, rife to noccpt the theory thai
the government is the cause of id, theii
trouble. The government cannot regu
late the rainfall, or perform any hk.
miracle. Now, farmers, isn't it u faei
that if you had raised good crops in
Morrow for the past five years, ou
would feel prelty well eoateutcdi1 lid
us have a few seasons where our farm
era reap from !2- to 4d bushels of wheal
per acre, and th? re will be little room foi
complaint. The principal alliance move
nients may lie found in those section
where our farmers have had short crops,
and it does appear to a casual observei
that our government is receiving all the
blame for it.
' Demand note" means payable on de
maud. Payable in w bat? Lu thccomol
the realm, of course. '1 he demand notes
of the late war were taken up by legal
tender notes and eventually redeemed in
coin, lu the palmy days of the demand
note, the government had sutVteieiii
means to take them up at any time. This
was enough to satisfy holders. Hut the
flovernmeiit could not satisfy everything
by its paper, promising to pay. In oui
opinion, the exception clause of tin
greenback lia-1 nothing to ilo wiih hs de
preciation. Why should it ? If the lu
te. est on the public debt had been paid
in demand notes, would not those notes
bad to have been redeemed la gold? Pay
day will come. To do its outside busi
Besi, the government nee. led some gold,
and was it not good judgment to secure
a little of It in the payment of "duties on
imports?'1 I'niou reverse! and doubts of
final siicH'UHH bad more to do with the de
preciatiou ot the greenback than any
thing else. At that stage of the t
there was also a lack of "hard com" to
make good this promise to pay. ami it is ,
no wonder that currency fell below par. '
With thin indue of Hit (inZ"tte, it com- j
pletea ila emhlli year of i-xislt'iiw, ninl j
goes boldly forth to wrestle with t lie i
ninth. It baa bad boila and toothaobt
like oile r people, and h;,s be. n charged
Willi everything, from uiiick.-n stealing
to holding up a stage, let it has sur
vived all, and to-day is a belter papei
and ia a moie prosperous condition than
at any previous period. L'uder the pres
eut management, it has been fotlud with
its voice and coin on the side of improve
ment and progress. T he paper has made
some money, jet It has put in all back
into the pluul and in other enterprises ol
lleppuer. The paper's plant, as it stands,
has C'-st the propiietoreon-siderably i.vei
SD.UilU, and is not done yet. All presses
aie ran by steam power, and it's job
otlice is equal to any m iia.-tein Oregon,
lu t lie future, as in the past, it proposes
to he valient ami true to Heppuer's in
terests, and to tie, so of Kastern Oregon;
but in doing so, does not propose to b
the organ, mouthpiece or tool of any individual.
Or all the great nations, only one has
a larger circulali n of numeyper oapita
than the United rtlales, that ol France,
which is Stt 1 he United States h.,s a
circulalion per capita of a little over
3Jo. Kranee has a poor system of bank
ing, and Iherelore few baiiki, requiring
more money lo carry on the business.
It is discovered that only fi per cent, of
our actual cireiilaiioii is used to carry mi
business, checks and drafts taking the
place of money in ill per cent, of finan
cial transactions. In a country where
there are few banks and no system ol
general banking, private paper cauuol
take the place of mouev to auy great ex
tent. NATIONAL BANKING.
Eni-roii Oautte: I tbiiuk you for
) our courtesy io your reply to my opin
ion oa the hanking system. However,
v ii are wrong again. The sixty million
of national demand uotes weie not back
ed by gold, or redeemed. On each and
very one was "good lor all debts, both
public and private.' They were at pai
with gold throughout the entire war.
The I wo exceptions on the greenback
issue caused them to depreciate, or caus
ed a demand for gold. Now, Mr. Editor,
iiconlnig to your own argument, w ho
poekeis llio premium now on hands? It
is the banks that have bought them up,
or our niou-ycd men to keep their wemth
Horn being taxed, ii the banking sjslein
u not profitable, as ou say, why is n
they arc so bitterly opposed to its being
lone away with?
One more question, and I am done fo,
ibis lime. How are the banks establish
oil'.' Is it not on the indebtedness of Hie
people, or on the war dehl? Pay oil" the
national debt, and tho banks urn knocked
out. of existence The banking system,
alone, in lime will pauperize very labor
ing man, woman and cbijd iu the U. t.
As ever yours,

probable the Department will change
