President McKinley does not
talk politics publicly, bat among
bis personal friends be expresses
pleasure at the outlook in Ohio,
and no man knows the politics of
that state better than be does. He
thinks the ticket nominated by the
republicans is a strong one, and
says that no republican in the state
can give a logical reason for not
i ii .
loyany iupporting it lie is
confident that the ticket will be
elected by a very large majority.
Representative Dick, who will be
the active manager of the Ohio
campaign, returned to Washing
ion in a joval state of mind, abso
lutely certain of a victory. He
says that the campaign will not be
started until about the middle of
September, but that when started,
it will be pushed aggressively un
til election day.
Judge Lowell's address to the
grand jury is in the interest of en
forcement of law. As he remarks
the anti-nickle-in-the-slot machine
law is a law untill declared void by
the courts, and it should be en
forced. There is no doubt about
the morality of such a statute and
it there was a technical error in
its passaga, that must be proven
by those opposing the law. The
machines in Pendleton have all
been put under the counter during
the session of the grand jury, but
it is rumored that the "bucking"
will begin again as soon as that
body adjourns. The owners of the
machines, however, should remem
ber that the present grand jury is
probably the last one that will
ever be called in Umatilla county
and that the powers formerly
given it will be used by the district
attorney who may report violations
of law at any time. It is the im
pression that Judge Lowell and
Mr. Bean have determined to sup
press the machines and see to the
strict enforcement of the law re
garding them. Republican.

HIS SUFFERINGS ENDED.
Sheriff E. L. Matlock Passed Away Early
Last Evening.
Last night as the sun went down tbe
spirit of Edward L. Matlock took its
night to tbe "mysterious world beyond."
Day before yesterday Dr. Swinburne
reoognized tbe symptoms wbiob fortell
the approach of the end. Bis olose was
in a peaceful sleep.
Dr. Swinburne's diagnosis of tbe case
and prediction of tbe result ia now fully
verified. Mr. Matlook's trip East, and
consultation witb Dr. Nicholas Seno,
one of the world's greatest pbysioians
and surgeons, satisfies tbe family and
community in general that everything
waa done to extend his useful career
possible.
A family of five ohildren survive bim,
who are Mrs. Al. Roberts, of Portland,
Mrs. Dr Eugene Vaughn aud Mrs. Thos.
Ayers, of Pendleton, Miss Berths, who
is a SI. Helens Hall student, and bis only
son, Leslie, of this oily. Mrs. Prioe Flor
ence, tbe eldest daughter, died three years
sinoe. Tbeir estimable and loving
mother was taken from them in Novem
ber, 1892.
His brothers, William F., James W.,
Thomas J. and Cass, have been continu
ously at bis bedside tbe past few weeka.
Thos. Ayers and Dr. Eugene Vaughn ar
rived on last night's train.
The funeral will take place Ibis after
noon at 3 o'olock, from tbe residenoe of
Tom Matlock, Bev. Sbelley officiating.
Tbe Knights of Pytbias and Elks will
attend in a body, of wbiob be was a
prominent member. Tne business firms
will close tbeir doors during tbe funeral
bours, and waa it possible lo preserve
the remains until tboronghly announced
the entire county would assemble here
en masse to pay tbeir respects to a faith
ful and honored offioial.
Tbe following interesting biography
is taken from tbe History or Morrow
County, published by the Gazette last
fall :
Mr. E. L. Matlook was born in Dade
oonnty, Misouri, in 1944. In 1853, when
9 years of age, he moved with his
parents to the West; crossing tbe plains
witb an ox team. The family, oonsist
ing ol tbe parents, seven boys and one
girl, left tbe state of Missouri In the
late spring, keeping the western trail as
far as tbe Cascade range in tbe south
eastern part of tbe state of Oregon, when
they left the trail intending to push on to
Southern California. Soon after leaving
the trail tbey became lost in the moun
tains, with tbe winter approaching. One
man was fitted nut with provisions that
oould be spared and sent tor assistance.
He returned witb Hugh Fields and
other settlers, and tbe party wasresoned
some 60 miles southeast of Eugene,
finally reaohing that point after an ex
perienoe of six months on tbe trail, with
provisions exhausted and nothing but
beef for food.
Tbe family located five miles from
Eugene, in Lane county, taking up gov
eroment land. In 1871 Mr. Matlook
came to this portion of of tbe state, set
tling on Wild Horse oresk, and was one
of tbe first to own sheep iu what is now
Monow county. A hard winter followed
bis settlement here, and he lost nearly
all. He then came over to MoDonald
OBnyon, and witb bis brother Cass bor
rowed enough money for a new start.
He finally sold his sheep interests and
returned to the Willamette valley, en
gaging iu mercantile pursuits. In 1880
ho returned to Heppner, purchased tbe
property now known as the Matlook
corner.
Two years ago be was elected sheriff of
Morrow counnty, which position be has
filled to the entire satisfaction of Ibe
taxpayers, and tbe riding necessary to
tbe requirements of tbe oftloe is partially
responsible for tbe aggravation of the
disease lhat took bim from ns. He was
a man of unquestioned integrity, and
a serious loss to Eastern Oregon.
A Manila Soldier Here.
Jsmes B. Kilburn, whose brother, Lee,
was well known In Heppner, arrived
here last week expeoting to find bim and
another brother here, but was disap
pointed, and started on tbe return train
for Washington. D. C , where be is to be
mustered out. He was a gunner in the
Washington, D. C, sixth artillery at
Manila, and served in six battles, when
the oaonon burst burning bim severely
and injuring his eyes. He was returned
here on tbe transport St. Paul, wbiob
arrived in San Franoisco, and will, upon
being mustered out, be deservedly pen
sioned. His reminisoenoes are most in
teresting. Reports from Ibe Atlin mining district
are anything but Haltering, and will
probably cause some Oregooiana to wish
tbey had remained where tbe golden op
portunities are numerous. One man ia
speaking of Atiin says Ibe people who
came out from tbere last fall must bar
been looking through glasses wbiob
magnified a thousand times. One pros
pector who is looateJ olose lo tbe famous
claim wbiob Capt. Bperry sold at such
an enormous prioe, sunk a bole 17 feel
deep and made a oleanup of $2.60. In
tbe raining regions of Ureuon a sbarn
prospector can olean np several times

JOINS THE BENEDICKS.
William B. Barrett United In Slariiage With
Hiss Eliea Bynd.
This morning at 9 c'clook, at tbe
home of Robt.F. Hynd.by Bev. Fleeher,
Wm. Barrett was joined in My wedlook
witb Miss Eliza Hynd, sister of tbe
popular warehouse representative. Tbe
fortunate groom oame to Morrow county
direct from Ubopebire, England, in 1885,
since wbicb time be has been aesooiated
witb Mr. Hynd in tbe sheep business,
and, like Mr. Hynd, bus proven himself
one of Morrow county's most successful
and respected young men. Tbe estima
ble bride, a very refined and interesting
lady, arrived here bnt last week from
ber borne in Arboratb, Scotland, and at
onoe assumes tbe roll and responsibili
ties of cur progressive young Ameri
cans, and as she affiliates with us will
soon feel that she is an Oregonian for all
time to come. Only immediate relatives
and friends were present at tbe cere
mony. The bappy couple departed on this
morning's train for Portland, and will
return within a few days to take np
tbeir home in Heppner.
Tbe McDnffee Springs.
We would like to oall the attention of
our readers to MoDufiee springs and
their wonderful curative properties
Tbe cures affected there have been tru!y
marvellous. One of oar old and re
spected citizens went out there eiz years
atro. a obvsioal wrcok in fact, the
physicians had practioally given bim up
to die. He was entirely cured and is
now known as the "young old man.
F. O. Buokman, now of Li Grande, was
cured entirely of infhmatory rheuma
tism, so, also, J as Morelaud. A Mr.
Eelley, who was wounded at the battle
of Qettyeburg, and was a viotim to mor
pbine, went there recently and in six
weeks is cured almost entirely. Tbeir
effioaoy is undoubted in rheumatic and
stomach troubles. Why should we go
to distant states to find bot springs
when here al our very doors, are some
just as effeotive? The springs are in
Grant county, about 75 miles eoutbess'
of Heppner. Now is a splendid oppor
tunity for the philanthropic in lined to
do some good work by helping a fello
traveller, while tbe waters are troubled,
go to these curative waters, and get
strong again. Tbere is a hotel and store
near tbe springs, end also g icd tenting
gronda.

was treated for a month by ber family
physician, but grew worse. He told ber
she was a hopeless victim of consump
tion and that no medicine oould cure
ber. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's
New Discovery for Consumption; ebe
bought a bottle and to ber delight found
herself benefitted from the first dose.
