Anv man of common sense is
Bpt to change his mind, especially
his political mind, as conditions
change. AudthuB it is that Ad

N. Y. World and Heppner Gazet
to announce that he hna changed
his mind and will run for the pres.
idoncy if the people want him. He
does not say which party he would
run with, but a man who could
capture Manila and then come

widow ought to bo able to capture
a nomination and an election.

DAYLIGHT RUNS.
At Dresent the passenger who leaves
Portland at 3:45 p. m. reaches Heppner
at nearly midnight, thus missing a view
of all the scenery this side of the Cascades.
Soon this will be all changed. A new
train is to be added to the main line,
and the change will go into effect about
April 22. While the time-table has not
yet been issued, it is tbouiiht that the
new train will reach Heppner Junction
about 3 p. m., leaving Portland early in
the forenoon. Passengers will thus en-
ioy a delightful ride up the valley of
Willow creek, reaching Heppner in
time for a good supper at the Palace
hotel, the best house in Eastern Oregon.

it is trious-nt tnat mere win ue nine

Heppner, March 15, 1900.
It Booms that another census is
about to be taken. The boss of the
census in Oregon asks the Gazet
and other newspapers to give him
suggestions as to how best to do
the work. An apt suggestion
might bo that he arrange to pay
tho newspapers for the Bcres of
free advertising asked for. It
sceiim that the census bureau ap
preciates the groat value of adver
tising, aud yet wants to got it for
nothing. Its motto seems to be:
"Millions for ollicials, but not a
cont for advertising." The last
mail brought to the Gazot a two
column editorial puff of the cen
sus bureau aud its ollicials, with a
sort of order that it be "released"
on a certaiu date. It was released
at once into its proper place, the
waste basket, with many other re
quests for freo puffs. When the
well-paid ollicials of the census
bureau offer to divide their work
with the newspapers they should
also generously offer to divide their
big salarieB.
NATIONAL NOTES.
Washington, March 31. It is so
near the Presidential election that
Democracy is looking for cam
paign material, and willing to pick
up anything to howl about, which
accounts for the howl about the
Puerto Ilica Bill. They have only
lately discovered where the con.
stitution was violated by the tariff,
and two years ago permitted Ha
waai to be annexed, to pay the full
tariff, and now go frantio when it
is proposed to charge Puerto Rica
15 per ceDt. of the amount; that,
too, when all collections go back to
Porto, to pay the expense of run
ning the island, and the arrange
ment is only temporary.
Nine of Senator McBride's bills
passed the senate during March,
and 16 during tho session.
At Congressman Moody's re
quest it will now be the duty of
star route mail carriers to drop
mail into boxes along the lines,
which will be a great convenience
to many settlers.
Senator Simon has pushed thro
the senate a bill to allow Oregon
miners to cut and use timber on
public lands. S. A. C.
HEPPNER AHEAD.
In MoClure's Magoziue are some
gnudy pictures of streets of Nazareth.
About all there is to them is there gaudi-
nest, tor they are not wide enough lor a
wheelbarrow, and such advertising will
never snll a town lot there. Tbere is
more life and more teams on Heppner's
streets in a minute than on those of
Nnxareth in nn nge. And the dooryurd
hIiowu haseo t a single oyster can or
chicken at work. Just some lazy lout
who hnseu't on even a three-hit pair of
overalls.
Aud the lake ebown in tne picture in
impossible colors isn't a patch oompared
with the pretty Bine mountain lakes of
Oregon. A lot of lifeless sheep are
shown in unothea picture who are bow
mg their heads in deepttir while tne
ticks are eating thera Dp. Meantime the
liizy herder stands by leaning on snoh
saw logs rs they raise in that siuuiea
region, when be ought to get off his
overcoat aud dip those sheep.
VOTERS EKQlSTKliED.
The vote to be cast by Morrow
county during the coming cam
paign will doubtless be a full one.
The registration of voters is a new
scheme aud an experiment, but
County Clerk Crawford is giving
voters abundant notice of its pro
visions and requirements, and all
who read or talk to those who do
read ought to be fully posted in
the matter, so that there is no ne
cessity of any man losiug his vote.
It is not necessary to come to
the county seat to register. A
man can do that before a Notary
Public or Justice of tho Peace in
the precinct in which Iih resides.
Thus far a fair showing has been
made, although there has been no
rush of registration. There re
mains a space of nearly six weeks
in which registering may be done.
But it is something that ishould bo
done as soon as possible, so as to
avoid overlooking at the last mom
out. The number of votersregistered
to date in tho different precints of
Morrow county foots up 791, as
follows:

GREAT IMPROVEMENT.
The wagon tratlio between Heppner
and the great interior is immense, and
the large loads of general merchandise
taken from here are a sight to see.
Traffic has so increased that the main
road leadiDg through Wright canyon
has beoome ton narrow, aud tbe Hepp
ner oity oounoil, with its usual enter
prise, has determined to widen and im
prove this great thoroughfare dear to
tbe oity limits.
Marshal Thornton and others hats
been advocating this progretsive pro'
lent for some tune, and now its great
benefits are very dearly seen.
At the oounoil meeting tbe matter was
referred to tbe street committee. Uonu
oilmen Oarrignea, Simona and Roberts
with full power to sot. Thai meana
that the good work will be gotten nnder
way at once aud pushed to completion
and freighters at a distance who atart tor
Heppner may kuow that good roads will
greet Ibem aud smooth their pathway
