A LARGE NUMBER....
Of Morrow County's citizens read
the Heppner Gazette. Not much of
an authority on agriculture or poli

neighbors.
A HOT NUMBER c-
Is the Ileppner Gazette. Without

HE WAS NO SNOB.
Itory of a Political Campaign In the Bine
Grass State.
John C. Underwood, who was elected
lieutenant (governor of Kentucky on
the same ticket with Luke Blackburn,
is an amusing story teller, particularly
when he is started on the subject of
political stumping in Kentucky. "Our
people," said he not long ago to a New
York Evening Post man, "don t like
snobbishness. I remember one time
when I was stumping one of the moun
tain counties. I bought twenty-five
dollars' worth of nickels and carried
them in my saddle bags. At every log
cabin I would ride up and ask for a
drink of water. Out would come a lit
tle boy or girl with a gourd dipper of
warm water. I would take a swallow,
then drop a nickel in the dipper. The
little one would run in and I would go
on. The child's mother would come
out and have the generous gentleman
pointed out. The consequence was
that I got the vote of that house.
Well, one morning I rode up to a house
and a little girl brought me out a dip
per of water. I felt in my pocket and
discovered that I hadn't a copper.
" 'Little girl,' said I, 'I generally
have a nickel somewhere about me, but
I haven't to-day, so I'll give you what's
the next best thing for a girl, and
that's a kiss,' and I got down oft my
horse, and kissed her for my own little
blue-eyed girl at home. Another little
black-eyd girl here showed up, and I
had to kiss her for a niece of mine she
looked like. By this time another lit
tle girl showed up, half a head taller
than the rest, and, not to be impartial,
I kissed her, when I found that four
or five other girls had gathered and 1
was in for it. So, beginning with the
smallest, I kissed each one. The change
in stature was so gradual that I didn't
notice that the last one was a full
grown young woman and right hand
some at that until I had kissed her.
Looking up I saw that thero were two
or three old ladies laughing at me, and
thinking that I had made a bad break,
I lifted my hat to the young lady and
begged her pardon and explained how
it was. She didn't seem to mind it
much, but the old ladies kept laughing,
and one said: 'Why, durn it, she's
Bill's wife.'
"'Well,' I thought, 'I'm In for it.
That knocks out all my votes in this
neighborhood, I inquired at the next
man's house who Bill was and was told
that it was 'Buck' Holmes, the hardest
citizen in Carter county. Next day I
had to speak at the courthouse and
when I came up I noticed a gang of
about twenty-five rough-looking fel
lows off at one bide, and a big six-foot
er talking to them and gesticulating
with both hands.
'"Who's that?' I inquired.
"'That's "Buck" Holmes and his
gang, was the reply. Cola chills ran
down my ba'ik and I shifted my re
volver around to whore I could reach
it without trouble, and then sauntered
up to overhear what he was saying.
"Well, I'm blanket blanked,' I
heard him any, 'if ho don't catch my
vote. No snob tlitir, gentleman. Jest
as soon kiHwt a poor man's wife as a rich
one's" That acttlud It, and I got one
hundred and fifty more votes in that
county than any other man on the
ticket."

The lady was a widow and rich
very rich as the French novelist says,
richissime, writes Waltei Besant. The
gentleman was a widower, past sixty,
extremely, even ridiculously, poor, and
the last of a most noble and historical
house. History is full of the achieve
ments of his people. Froissart men
tions their exploits in every other page;
they were always taking this side or
the other, for the king and against the
'.dng. When they took a side they
meant it; out they marched, they and
theirs, in full armor.- Whichever side
they took, it always ended in their be
ing captured and decapitated for high
1 reason or else killed in battle. From
lather to son, from generation to gen
eration, for long centuries, none of
them ever went out of the world from
an inglorious feather bed; it was al
ways from the grassy field of honor or
from a scaffold. A gray beard was un
known in that house, nor had any of
them ever experienced the tender emo
tions of a grandfather.
The lady, besides being a widow and
richissime, was of ignoble origin and
her late husband had made his money
in trade. Reflection upon this point,
made her unhappy. She was bo ricn
that she thought she also ought to be
noble, just to correspond. It is a com
mon confusion of thought. She de
sired above all things to connect her
riches with an ancient name, and she
made a proposal to the nobleman.
"Marry me," she said. "Give me the
right to use your name. In return I
will give as handsome an annuity as
you can possibly desire. You shall
have the means of living as yo
please, and of obtaining all that you
can desire. I will not ask you to live
in my house. You Bhall live where j'ou
please. I will only ask that, for ap
pearance sake, you will take your place
at my dinners, and that you will show
up as the lord of the house at my re
ceptions."
'Twaa arranged in this sense. The
lady took and furnibhed for herself a
great hotel. She had the rooms deco
rated in honor of thia and that illus
trious ancestor. The arms of the house
were everywhf re. The portraits, busts
and statues of the houne were in all the
rooms; the pictures eprescntd scenes
and episodes in the history of the
house. The servants wore the ancient
livery, the well-known li.wry of the
house. The hotel became a museum of
the hou.se, and at dinners and on re
rpptinn nights the duke hltrmrlf was
always present, grave, digtiilleil ami
btaU-ly, with the look of one who hud
Ntepjiod out of a picture frame five
hundred yonrs old and had put on the
clothes of the nineteenth century, but
not it manners. When mntlame the
ilucliewi watt not at home he lived in
his own chambers at the club afU-r his
own fashion. An excellent burguin,
was it not? and one that ace ins perfect
ly fair to both purtira.

LITTLE TIME FOR IDLING.
Government Clerkships JSot Such Sine
cures as Is Generally Supposed.
The imnression still exists in the
f minds of many people who come to
Washington and secure government
positions that the department clerk
has little or no work to do but the
manual or rather pedal labor in
volved in standing-in line upon semi
monthly occasions and pocketing a
salary. This was instanced some
weeks ago, oays the Washington Post,
when a newly-appointed young clerk
of the gentler sex made her uproar-
anco in the pension of.ice. The other
clerks viewed with curious eyes the
contents of a rather largo bundle of
fancy work which she spread out on
the desk and leisurely essayed to
weave. She was somewhat surprised
and impatient because the messenger
came in several times during the day
to deposit oilice papers on her desk,
thus interrupting the plying of her
needle. She frrew more surprised as
day by day her work increased, and
she had no time to spare for her avoca
tion. She got enough of it in about a
week. One day she rolled up Uie un
finished tatting and toolc it home, with
the remark that she "really believed
bhe would not be able to do any fancy
work, after all." A somewhat similar
story is related of an old gentleman of
a literary turn of mind who entered
tpon his duties in the sixth auditor's
office with a select assortment of the
poets and es:.' vhts under his firm. His
chief inquired if the voltt'nos in ques
tion were exwvled to throw light
upon the nudiling of post, oi'.iee ac
counts. "I usually devote nt Vjttst two
hours a day to elevating reading," re
plied the clerk. But reading the poets
during office hours was found to be in
compatible with disposing of tin? enor
mous pile of work that soon loomed np
on the new employe's desk, until at
last tho lover of literature strapped np
his library of master minds of the
world and took them away, never again
to be subjected to tho indignities cf
government routine.

A Railroad Bridge In Switzerland Welgh
Iiir 546 Tons Raised Five Feet.
The raising of a bridge in Switzer
land upon the line of the International
railway, from Paris to Vienna, has at
tracted considerable attention from
the methods pursued, which are de
scribed by Locomotive Engineering.
The occasion for the change was that
the river crossed the Rhine had lost
in the sectional area of the passage be
tween the piers about twenty-five per
cent, in thirteen years, owing to the
deposition of gravel and sediment,
while the high water level had risen
to such an extent as to pile floating de
bris six feet deep on the bridge floor in
times of flood. The alterations includ
ed some reinforcements, besides the
raising of the whole structure about
live feet. The bridge was continuous
over a center pier, and had two main
vertical posts thure and four vertical
end posts. To each of these posts an
inclined strut was attached in a trans
verse vertical plane, presenting a sur
face for the top of a hydraulic jack to
act upon. Light special one hundred
ton jacks wero used, with an elght-
ineh stroke and a working pressure of
four hundred atmospheres, the piston
being nearly seven-tenths in diameter.
tho fluid used was a mixture of water,
alcohol and glycerine. Sixteen men
opt rated the jacks, their movements
being synchronized by a code of sig
nals, designed to secure uniformity of
action. The bridge, was raised a foot
or two by bhort lifts, followed up by
thorough, blocking, and then building
under one course of cut-stone masonry.
The total loud was five hundred and
forty-six tons, and the maximum load
on a single jack was eighty-seven
tons. Tho bridge was raised in four
stages during intervals between trains.
1 he longest intcrvul between trains
wtni about two hour. The weight of
trains was rigidly restricted during tho
lime the bridge was undergoing r-
pair i, mid tin ir speed was limited to
three miles no hour in crossing the
bridge. In addition, a special block
system was organized upon that sec
ta n of tnc lino upon which the bridge
in b ctill. so that operations could te
su: x iiue l mid the track restored five

QUARRY PRODUCTS.
Some Statistics on the Building Stone
Values of the Country.
A report on the valuation of building
stones produced in the United States
during 1893 has been compiled by Dr.
William C. Day, special agent of the
United States geological survey. It
shows an aggregate valuation of al
most $22,000,000, a decrease of over
115,000, 000 from that of 1892. The valu
ation during the first half of the year
was larger than for the similar period
of 1892, owing to pending government
and private contracts. The large de
crease which in the latter haf took
place is attributed to the financial depression.
The valuation of blue stone is esti
mated at 81,000,000. The marble prod
uct was valued at $2,411,092. Ver
mont alone had a product valued at
$1,621,000, more than six times that of
any other state. The states having the
next largest products were Georgia,
$201,00(1, and New York, $206,928. . The
production of granite in the country
was valued at $8,815,934. Of thia
amount that produced in Massachu
setts was valued at $1,631,204; Maine,
$1,274,054; New Hampshire, $443,424,
and Vermont, $778,450.
Slate produced during the year waa
valued at $2,522,173, of which $1,473,
275 is credited to Pennsylvania. The
product of Vermont waa valued at
$535,733 and of New York $204,982. The
valuation of the product of other atatea
is given as follows: Georgia, $11,250;
Maine, $139,200; Maryland, $37,884;
New Jersey, 93,053; Utah, $850, and Vir
ginia, $117,347.
The sandstone production haa a val
uation of $5,195,151. Of this amount $2,-
101,032 was from Ohio and $022,552 from
Pennsylvania. Limestone production
was valued at $13,020,223. The atatea
having the largest product were:
Illinois, $2,305,000; Ohio, $1,818,040; In
diana, $1,484,095; Maine, $1,474,605;
Pennsylvania, $1,552,336, and New
York, $1,103,529.
A CHICAGO BUILDING.
It la to High That Its Oscillation Stopped
the I'rr.ldrnfs I lock.
A local corporation, recently or
ganized, established its headquartere
on the top floor of one of the tallest
buildings in town. The attorney had
a room to himself; the secretary waa
given another palatini apartment; the
superintendent reigned supreme in an
other place; the president was, of
course, compelled to outdo all tba
other in leather-cushioned chairs,
massive tables ami expensive bmntea.
The crowning glory of his private
office, says the Chicago ltecord, waa a
big clock with an elaborately carved
case. It wns the beit clock in the en
tire stock of a local dealer, and It had
a long, shiny pendulum which waa to
awing alowly and with regularity aa be
came a clock owned by the president
of such a solid and respectable corpora
tion.
On the first day the pendulum
stopped. The clock waa sent WW lo
the dealer, whose experts took It apart,
oiled it and set it running again. Once
morn it waa taken up lo the presi
dent's ofllce and once mora it ceased
running. For a second time the ex
perts tli-JM'ctcd It and found every part
in working order. It kept time to lha
second for two ilnya and waa confident
ly returned to the buyer, who reported
Imck egnlu In two hours: "lhechM-k
bos aUipjK'd."
An architect who tweatne acquainted
rllh the fuels In the case solved lha
mystery, lie said the oscillation of
the building counteracted and atopped
the swing of the pendulum. Tba
pendulum couldn't work with an
regularity so long as the building waa
nslilitir around In the changing wind
like a cut tail Is-for a summer tephry.
