The Gazette.
Thursday, Nov. 23, 1899.
Why is Ifeppner's flag not at
half-mast in respect to our de
ceased vice-president?
Notwithstanding MormoDism
is in direct conflict with the consti
tution of the United States po
lygamy seems on the increase, and
Oregon is developing into a hot
bed for them. Foreign evils
should be laid aside and the good
pursued at home.
While the Gazette poses cham
pion of the interest of the county,
individuals must bear in mind
that our columDe are for sale to
those who appreciate them as an
advertising medium. In order to
exist it is necessary for us to get
the price of our space as it is for
the merchant to get the price of
his goods. We have no favorites,
and for the same compensation,
lend our influence to increase the
business (if those who help sup
port us.
Chicago is to have automobile
mail wagons. They are to be put
on as c test of their usefulness.
The automobile has come to stay.
The triumph of electricity has
made it possible, and at the same
time man has liken one more step
toward wings and navigation of
the air. The reign of the horse is
nearing an end for utilitarian pur
posos. Iu the next decade the
saddle horse and the trotter will be
all that will be left in the stables,
while they will be only in the stables
of thoHe who love the horse for the
horse's sake and the wealthy who
can afford to have the horse cared
for for their convenience and en
tertainment. Then the horse will
be a luxury and the automobile a
necessity. The horseless carriage
is no longer a plaything. East
Oregon inn.
Senatok Fouakek said of the
result in Ohio, which he played so
important a part iu bringing
about, aud of the general result:
"It wa? a victory for the adminis
tration, and will greatly strengthen
rresHent McKiuley, and in that
way have 'a decided effect upon
Congress, aud' the whole country.
Prosperity will continue and no
body will think of any other re
publican than McKinley as our
candidate for the presidency, in
11)00. Changes in the political
situation will come, no doubt,
within the next twelve months,
but the probabilities are that they
will strengthen the republican
party. The most likely changes
will be the suppression of the in
surrection in the Philippines, the
enactment of the necessary legis
lation to reform and improve our
monetary system, to restore our
morchaut marine, build au Oceanic
canal across the Isthmus, etc
These are all groat measures, to
which the American people are
already committed, and the demo
cratic party cannot well afford to
oppose them. Yet, except in the
opposition to such measures, the
democrats will be without any im
portant issue. The democratic
party seems to bo bottled up, like
(Ion. Itutler was at Bermuda
Hundred."

E. church, and tbe M. E. obnrcb, sontb.
Tbis wee particularly an interesting
convention and was made so largely by
the preeenoe of Mr. I. H. Amos, of Port
land. Mr. Amos is a member of tbe
eieoutive committee of tbe btnte Associ
ation, and is a very enthusiastic Sunday
school worker. He is engaged in tbe
work on a large scale and baa been for
some years, and while be has large busi
ness interests in the city of Portland,
and bia visit to Heppner at this time
neoeseitated bis giving up bis bnsicesa
pursuits for four days, but be gladly
saorifioed tbis in order to farther the
Sunday sohool work of tbe state. Those
wbo were in attendance at tbe conven
tion laat week can testify that Mr. Amos
is an enthusiastic worker along these
lines and tbe offioera of tbe oounty asso
ciation were indeed fortunate in seouriog
tbe aid of Mr. Amos at tbis time.
Muob oare bad been made in the
selection of tbe subjeote tbBt were placed
on tbe program, and witb but one or
two exceptions those assigned plaoes on
the program were present to take tbeir
part. Tbe papers and discussions were
good, and tbe spirit of tbe convention
throughout was splendid, the main ob
ject of those wbo participated seemed tc
be tbe betterment of conditions sur
rounding tbe Sunday school work in tbe
county.
Tbe idea of making a bouse to house
oanvaee in the oity ot Heppner, met with
great favor, and tbis step will be taken
in tbe near future.
It la to be regretted that tbe attend
ance was not larger, but it la certain
that all tbose wbo did attend have been
well repaid, and are now in a position to
do better work tbe ooming year, as the
enthusiasm of tbe convention will have
a good effect.
Tbe following resolutions were passed
by tbe convention. .
Resolved, That tbe secretary be re
quested to express to tbe International
Lesson committee our gratification over
the retaining of the temperance lesson
in the international series, and that all
our workers be requested to urge upon
tbe various publication bouses from
which ibey may order their supplies,
tbe importance of strengtbiog tbe in
strootion along the line ot tbe temper
ance lesson, so as to set forth tbe sin
fulness of tbe drink habit and the
criminality of the sale of intoxicating
liquors as a beverage whether under
lioenBe or otherwise.
Resolved, That we fully appreciate
tbe efforts and plans of our state organi
zation for tbe suocees of tbe work the
ooming year, and that we will earnestly
endeavor to assist them in making this
tbe most progressive and satisfactory
year ot all in Sunday sohool work.
Resolved, That we thank our presi
dent, Mr. J. J, Adkins, for his effoats in
making tbia tbe most interesting and
profitable Sunday school convention
ever held in Morrow oounty.
Resolved, That we thank the execu
tive committee for their speoial effort in
preparing tbe program and tbeir efforts
in securing tbe presence of one of our
state officers, whose work among us has
greatly encouraged and enthused al
Sunday school workers present.
Resolved, That we (bank tbe trustees
ot the different ohurcbes tor tbe use of
tbeir houses of worship for the con
vention. Resolved, That we thank tbe people
ot Heppner for tbe kind and hospitable
manner in which tbey entertained tbe
