THE "NEW" CITY HOTEL. The Model Hostelry ot W. J. Leezer On Main btreet. REFITTED AND REFURNISHED THROUGHOUT Those to Whom is Entrusted the Various Departments - Mr. Leezer a Gracious Host. '"THERE are but few in Morrow oounty, or, in faot, in Eastern Oregon, who have ever passed through Heppner that are not familiar with the City hotel stand, so long run by E. Minor, of this place, and otherB. For years it was the leading hotel of the town. Recently, Mr. W. J. Leezer, o( this place, took oharge of the business, and at & great expense baa placed it, pre-eminently, and to the ex ception of none, in the list of Heppner's best hotels. To be sure, it is a frame building, but from cellar to garret and office to kitchen, the oarpenter, painter, paper-baDger and house furnisher have most liberally applied the tools of their respective trades till it shines like the new dollar of our daddies, fresh from the mint. The offioe, parlors, bedrooms, kitchen, dining-room, etc, are models of neatness, spaciousness and oomtort. Every part has received that attention neoessary to render it what one would expect in a first-class hotel. Mr. W. J. Leezer, the graoious and accommodating host, is uo stranger in these parts, having located at Umatilla Jun. 6, 1871. Mr. Leezer came directly from his old home in Riishville, Sohuvler oounty, 111., and immediately embarked in the tinware and Btove business, con tinuing up to Jan. 1, 1880, when he oame to Heppner, resuming his former busi ness, adding shortly afterward a stock of hardware. Last June he sold out to bis partner, P. C. Thompson, and shortly afterward completed arrangements to take oharge of the city hotel . Mr. Leezer was the first treasurer ot Morrow connty, receiving the appoint- uieut under Gov. Moody in 1885, whin the county was first formed He re cently received another evidence of the faith of the republicans, at least, by b mg otitjaeu .the nominee for the same, olhce. Mrs. Leezer superintends, in person, tho oare of rooms, and every little detail is oarefully looked after with that neat nesB and nicety charncterintioof a modal housewife. She has in her employ Miss Ella Gibbs, of this oounty, a moat com petent person. The diniDg room is under the CBreof Messrs. Art Ammerman and Frank Holt, who are ever alert that no guest shall leave their department until tbe "inner man" has bad satisfactory attention. Mr. Sam Leezer, a brother of W. J.'s, is the day olerk, while "Uncle" Jas. De pew attends to wants of night customers. We bespeak for Mr. Leezer a liberal patronage, as he deserves, from his neighbors and friends of long standing, as well as the general traveling public Lord; Alpine, A. G. Bartholomew; Pine City, ; Castle Rock, . The meeting adjourned sine die after a harmonious session. The ticket selected seems to be giving general satisfaction among the republicans.
