The Csn of Firearms in the City Limits Should be Stopped. The Gazette dog, Mado, is under re pairs tor a gunshot wound, some person having tried their 22 cat. squirrel gun on him. However, the wound is not serious, but tbe Gazette wants it dis tinctly understood that the first person oangbt shooting around the home ranch of tbe only Heppuer Gazette is taking big ohanoes of getting some of the medioine in return. No more cowardly trick can be perpetrated than tbe wanton shooting ot a dog that injures ' no one, matters not whether it is tbe Gazette dog or 8om9 other person's. Tbe attention ot the authorities ot Heppner is oalled to the faot that many "air" guns are in use by the young ele ment. These guns are dangerous. They are being used reoklessly and the loss of hd eye will be the substance of a promi nent news item io tbe Gazette at no dis tant dav. Tbe use of "squirrel guns" of small oalibre within the oity limits should be stopped. Some are using "extra long" cartridges and these are dangerous in some guns for a long distance. This promiscuous use of firearms in the town bould be stopped before some person is killed. These small guns are good in their place, bat the worst kind oC nuis ances in the hands o( small boys.

Judge Bellinger is not inolined to have the government put to any more expense, than is striotly necessary, on account of this wbiskey to lndians business. Formerly, United States commissioners were appointed for lite, eood behavior: but, under a law lately passe 1, the terms of all snoh commissioners will expire June 30, and new commissioners will be appointed by tbe United States district judges, for a return term of four years."
