According, to the Oregonian, Judge
Bennett is likely to be the demooratic
nominee for congress from the second
diet riot.
The fire commissioners of Portland, in
recent report, give as one of the prin
cipal onuses for fires, the explosion of
oosl oil lamps, whioh danger would be
eliminated bere by the nse of electrioity
for illuminating purpoeee.
The Gazette acknowledges the receipt
of au invitation to attend the celebration
of the one hundredth anniversary of the
discovery of the Columbia river by Capt.
Kobt. Gray, May 11, 1792, to be held in
Astoria, May 10, 11 and 12, 1892.
Speaking of ' the next congressman
from the second district of Oregon, the
Walla Walla Union says: "W. R Ellis,
one of the repablican nominees for con
qress in Oregon, has some acquaintances
in Walla Walla who regard mm highly.
He is a resident of Heppner, and has
been the successful prosecuting attorney
of that judicial district"
Hillsbobo is highly pleased with ber
water and light system, put in by Mr.
H. V. Gates rcoently. That little oity
has growD more since the completion of
the plant than for years past. We want
no bnom ut Heppner, but do desire pro
tection, end that the town should avail
itself of those natural advantages whioh
its magnifloent location gives it.
Should Mr. Gates put in the water
and light plant bere, nearly all the labor
on Bame will be done by our home peo
ple, all material that oan be bought here
will be nsed. After its completion, the
repairs to niaohinery and extension of
mains from time to time will give em
ployraent to many hands, and not less
thun COO oordu of wood will be consumed
yearly.
To JJno. I'attekhon, of the Heppner
Gazotte, we say in all friendliness thai
the Times Mountaineer favorably men
tioned the nume of Hon. W. R. Ellis for
congress in lH'JO before Hon. Bioger
Hermann was nominated. But this is of
no consequence, the T.-M. and Gazette
will do their utmost to elect Mr, Ellis
the fSrut congressman of the second oon
grcsNionul district in Oregon. T.-M.
It is said that a railroad can be buili
aoross the tablelands, baok from the
Columbia, botween The Dalles, and
Celilo. If such is the ooho, it certainly
adds another feature to the open river
question, and plaoos it in the power of
the etute to put in its own portage. It
would have no interference from the
Union Pacific, because the portage right-
ofway would be far from the 0. P.'e
tracks.
Now the democrats should nominate
Hon. James lialey for congress and the
"tall eycumore of Morrow" will not be
iu it in June. Kuloy is just the man to
represent Eastern Oregon in congreBB
and if nominutod the people will un
doubtedly look to their interests and Bee
that he is elected. Baker Democrat.
Itnluy is the strongest man the demo
crats could put up, but be could hardly
dig up a polo long enough to harvest the
persimmon against W, K. Ellin.
Tiieiu! are too many people in this
world who want to edit the newspaper,
dictate, its locals and set a price on its
advertising spaue. They would raise
h 1 if a newspaper man would say what
they had to sell their calves for, or the
right figures for a corner lot. There
would be an everlasting howl if the
printer chose to dictate the value of
BUgar, nails, oalico and other truck of
like nature. The printer knou$ more
people than any man in the couutry
State Senator Haley, of Pendleton,
tells the local interviewer that he lias
been at no time, and will not be, a can
didate fur congress lu the sooond dis
trict, lie is not seeking a renominstlon
for state senator, and will not aooept it
it if ex State Treasurer Webb desires it.
Mr. Ruley thinks Ellis may receive about
his party vote, but that be is not espec
ially stroug, bnt that the democrats, in
order to have a chance of winniug, will
have to put np their strongest num.
Portland Telegram,
Tn man-who.won't-give-a-thiug,when
some great and laudable undertaking or
enterprise is proposed, is thus sized up
by Peter, the Poet, in the Klamath Star:
"The won't give-a-thing man bobs up
here and there oooasionally to show bow
cleverly he sucks eggs. He makes his
liens rustle tor their feed and growls be
cause they eat grasshoppers. He turus
bis bogs out to shift for themselves and
growls because they dou't fatten. He
keeps away from and damns every new
enterprise, and when the enterprise pans
out well he growls boonnse he is not do
ing as well as others. The mnu who 'will
not give a thing' is the aversion of every
enterprising man on earlb."
Mr. Ellis is running for congress on
a platform that is "heartily m favor of"
the IXilph-Mitchell bout-railway scheme,
whioh, to say the least, is experimental,
and ill take many years to complete, if
it is practical at all, but which Bays not
a word iu favor of a portage road, to be
built either by the federal government
or the state, and hence must be opposed
to it. What do the people of Eastern
Oregon think of this? Portland Tele
gram. The people of Eastern Oregon
know Ellis. They also know something
about Springer's free wool and protected
wooleus; that which practioally says the
won! grower doesn't need any protection,
bnt the manufacturer does. They also
iuow Ellis to be for an "open river," to
be brought about in the most practical
way.
Hot Griddle Cake
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder possesses a peculiar
merit not approached by that of any other baking powder.
It produces the hot buckwheat, Indian or wheat cakes, hot
biscuit, doughnuts, waffles or muffins. Any of these tasteful
things may be eaten when hot with impunity by persons of
the most delicate digestive organs. Dr. Price's Cream Bak
ing Powder leavens without firmentation or decomposition.
In its preparation none but the purest of cream ot tartar, so
da, etc is used, and in such exact equivalents as to always
guarantee a perfectly neutral result, thereby giving the natu
ral and sweet flavor peculiar to buckwheat and other flour
that may be used, the natural flavor so much desired and ap
preciated by all.. The oldest patrons of Dr. Prices powder tell
the story, that they can never get the same results from any
other leavening agent, that their griddle cakes, biscuits, etc.
are never so light and never taste so sweet or so good as
when raised with Dr. Prices Cream Baking Powder.
THE PROPOSED WATERWORKS.
The people of Heppner will shortlj
have an opportunity of voting bonds foi
a system of waterworks. If any town in
the northwest actually needs water foi
fire protection and domestic use, it is
Heppner. Oar people are taking mort
rink than oood Luaiuess sagacity would
dictate under any circumstanoeB; oui
rates of insurance are entirely too high ;
our wells are impure from the proximity
of cesspools, privy vaults ani stable
yards, sooner or later to end in an awful
epidemic
In the matter of fire protection there
is not a brick building iu town that de
mands less protection than the rows ol
frames, though, of oourse, there is less
likelihood of a conflagration starting in
the former than the latter. But should
a general fire break out our people will
learn that nothing will atop its oourse
but pleuty of water. The town is able
to oope with email fires, but is absolutely
unprotected otherwise,
Hoppner's citizens are progressive.
They are anxious to see the town grow.
They aro particularly desirous that out
side capital shall seek inveutment in our
midst. But will any sane man seek a
field where he is likely to lose more than
he oould possibly make under the most
favorable circumstances? The Gazette
thinks not. He will go where he has
some protection offered to invest his cap-1
ital.
It is the deeire of the town to provide
an adequate water supply as soon as
possible, and to this end it is hoped that
the people will give the council the right
to raiBe the remaining $15,000, the limit
of bonded indebtedness which the oity
oan assume under the present oharter.
Regarding the proposition of Mr. H.
V. Gates, with some trivial alterations, it
is by far the best proposition ever
offered us. Fifteen thousand dollars is
not a Bufficiont amount to put in a water
system for all purposes. In fact, it is
hardly enough to put in a plant for fire
protection only, which would be a dead
weight to the town, bringing in no in
come. We could then do nothing lur
ther till the next session of the legisla
ture, provided that body would amend
the charter, to allow a larger indebted
ness, and the town would vote the bonds
necessary.
The Gazette is of the opinion that it is
to our interests to allow Mr. Gates to put
in waterworks. We tbi n know just how
much expense will be the town's portion
each year. He is a practical man and
evidently knows more about running a
plant than our town of Heppner. There
is no assuranoe that the town can save a
cent by managing it themselves, and the
amount of indebtedness would be les
sened greatly by accepting Mr. Gates'
proposition.
Mr. Gates also wishes to add an eleo
trio light plant. There ia not a business
man in Heppner who would not save
money by using eleotrio lights instead of
ooal oil, besides, the risk being much
less and lights very much better. Our
streets are poorly lighted, a very poor
recommendation for a town like Hepp
ner. Lights for residences would oosl
four-bits apiece per month.
A good water and light plant would
raise the value of Heppner property, be
cause it would be more desirable. Let
nil taxpayers look into the matter care
fully and do what is for Heppner's beat
interests. Remember, the money will
be needed whether the town nooepts Mr.
Gates' proposition or not; and, too, that
no oontraotB have been made, nor will
be entered into till satisfactory to the
town council.
SOT A NOVICE.
The Veudleton Tribune, in sneaking of
Dinger Hermann, of the first district
and his chanceB to be returned to con
gress, says this of the second district
candidate:
His nnooiate, when he returns to the
fifty-third congress, will be Hon. V. R
Ellis, of Heppner, and no higher compli
ment oan be paid this gentleman than to
express the opinion that the second dis
trict will be no less worthily represented
than the first. Mr. Ellis is not a novice
at public service. He is a gentleman of
high obaraeter, in the fullness of man
hood, a lawyer of ability and experience
and as a legislator will be in touch with
the people, conversant with the needs of
his district and loyal to the principles of
his party. Ue is likely to receive in the
eastern oouuties more than his party
vote.
Mr. Ellis, the republican nominee for
congress in this district, is rather a good
looking man, about six feet tall, and
weighs nearly 200 pounds. It eleoted,
be will silently sud gracefully adorn a
swat for two years. If tbs people ot the
district want to elect a man "on his
shape," Ellis will do very well. As it is
not an Adonis, but a statesman, we are
looking for, Mr. Ellis will have to take s
back seat. Portland Telegram.
YeaT
Mobbow conuty ought to have a board
of immigration. Then with boards of
trade, or some other subordinate organ
izations in every precinot, the country
could be settled up, and by a good,
thrifty class of people. Heppner should
open the ball by organizing a board of
trade.
A Warning- Don't Use Big Words.
In promulgating esoteric cogitations or
articulating superficial sentimentalities
and philosophical or psychological ob
servations, beware of ulutituuinous pon
derosity. Let your statements possess a
clarified conciseness, oompaoted cumpre-
hepsibleness, coalescent consistency and
a concentrated cogency, Eaohew all
conglomerations of flatulent garrulity,
jejune babblement and asinine affecta
tions. In trying to impress upon others
tLe superiority of the Wisconsin Central
Lines, and why you and so many others
use this thoroughfare from St. 1'aul and
Minneapolis and Duluth and Ashland to
Milwaukee, Chicago and points east and
south, it is not necessary to use jaw
breakers. Let your extemporaneous
descantings and unpremeditated expa
tiations have intelligibility and vera
cious vivacity, without rhodnmontade or
thrueonical bombast. Sedulously avoid
all polyByllubio profundity, peittaceous
vacuity, yeuiriloijuHi vei 001,117 uu
vandiloqnent vapidity, Bbun double en
tendree, prurient jocosity and pestiferouB
profanity, obscuieiit or apparent. J 11
other words talk plainly, naturally, sen

LATEST NEWS.
Bpeot&l to the Gazecte.
Portlaxd, Apr.
19. It is probable) ;
that Judge A. 3. Bennett, of The Dalles,
will be chosen as the nominee of the sec
ond district democrats for congress,
though st this hour, 2:30, p. m., that part
of the convention's woik had not been
reached. It would seem, that since Ben.,
Kaley was not in the ruce, that Judge
Bennett's only competitor would be .T.
H. Slater, of Union oounty, who stands
high in the estimation of Eastern Orego
niaos. The first district will probably chooBe
Henator Veaoh as their candidate. Hon.
J. K. Weatherford is "in it" for the su
preme benoh, though early this morning
there was some show of strong opposi
tion from Eastern Oregon. As they
have not furnished a member for the su
preme bench for years, it at all, in the
history of Oregon, they would seem to
have some claims on the convention for
that important nomination.
Hon. Henry Blackman will probably
be chosen to represent the democracy of
bis section at the Chioago convention.
Blackman iB such an aggressive politi
cian, and so veil received by his numer
ous friends over the state, many of whom
are bere, tbHt be will probably have no
trouble in getting "thar.

the "Forks of the Santiam," is bere, but
