RESULTS WANTED.
Good reHulta of permanent bene
fit to all are what the people want.
The people of Morrow county
very well remember where their
preuent proHperity began.
They voted the Kepublican
ticket, and with the recording of
their votes came a restoration of
confidence and a wave of prosper
ity which has put people on their
feet and lifted tbem out of the
path of poverty.
The people of tho Heppner
llillH have a very vivid recollection
of the great depression when Cleve
land patches had to be worn and
when values of sheep, wool, cattle
and horses went down to zero.
Then it was when men who had
for years been identified with the
Democratic party let their com
mon sense rise above politics and
they voted the Kepublican ticket,
and confidence was restored, and
good times otune again.
There is no guess-work about it.
Results show for themselves. No
one wants to see a return of the
dark days of depression, and the
way to keep them banished is to
vote the Republican ticket and
keep the party in power that re
stored confidence and brought
back prosperity to the Heppner
Hills.
CLEAN CAMPAIGN.
Both political parties are to be
congratulated upon the clean cam
paign which has been conducted
this trip, lolciation and broad
opinions have prevailed through-
out Morrow county, and there has
been no bitter crimination and m
crimination, no mud-slinging.
iMich a clean campaign is a credit
to all parties, and the same spirit
that conducted it will congratulate
the victors and sympathize with
the vanquished after the votes are
counted next Monday.
Each side can truly say that it
had gentlemen for opponents.
WASTED VOTES.
M. D. Markham, who is well
known as a sincere teuiperanoe
worker, says, as most people know,
that prohibition does not prohibit.
For, says he, go where you may,
and you will find that we have
laws on our ntatute 1kok8 now, and
luont certainly will continue to
have, as prohibitory as it is possi
ble to enforce, not only on the
temperance question, but on all
other questions of morality. Stop
and consider before you vote, and
if you waut order, good govern
ment and prosperity, vote for the
party that you think will most
likely give it, but don't throw your
vote to the winds by voting ft pror
hibition ticket.
ALL IRE COMPETENT CANDIDATES
Republican Nominees Are Deserving of
Political Honors.
SOME SHORT SKETCHES OF THE MEN
CIRCUIT JUDGE.
Hon. W. R. Ellis, the republican
candidate for circuit judge of the
Gth district, is a man of very wide
experience. Graduating from col
lege he commenced practicing law
25 years ago; he served as district
attorney 5 years was appointed
once and elected twice.
Mr. Ellis was three times elected
to congress, and represented Ore
gon very creditably.
COUNTY JUDGE.
When you see a county that is
deep in debt under ordinary cir
cumstances, you are justified in
supposing that there is something
wrong with its management. But
when you see a county that is
practically out of debt and has its
taxes all collected up, it is safe to
say that it has been well mauaged.
Such a county as the latter is Mor
row county, and snch good results
show that J udge Bartholomew has
been a complete success as a county
judge. He has handled the coun
ty's affairs with ability, and the re
sults are most gratifying to all.
Judge Bartholomew richly de
serves tue honor of re-election,
and with such a competent man at
the helm the taxpayers will know
that their burdens will be made as
light as possible.
SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT.
J. W. Shipley, the candidate for
county superintendent of schools
on the Republican ticket, has the
confidence of the people and is
considered a young man of much
ability.
He graduated from the Heppner
Uigh School with the class of 1893.
After putting in six years teaching
in the country schools, he was
chosen, in 1895, to teach the 7th
and 8th grades of the Heppner
school. Mr. Shipley's work was
so satiKfactory to all that the next
year he was advanced to the im
portant position of assistant prin
cipal, which position he resigned
to take up the w ork of county sup
erintendeucy. Mr. Shipley understands the
public school from top to bottom
and has his work at heart. He
has actively, energetically and per
sistently pushed the work along
the whole line, always keeping
the schools in touch with the most
advanced thought. It is Deedless
to say our schools are equal to any
in the state, and Mr. Shipley is the
man to keep them up to their high
standard.
STATE TICKET.
The Republican State aDd Dis
trict tickets are made up of the
very best timber. No better men
could bo selected, and all voters
who waut to vote for the best men
can safely vote the Republican
ticket and thus vote for a continu
ance of the prosperity now pre
vailing in Morrow county.
KOK ASSESSOR.
W. L. Saling has had much ex
perience with assessment rolls, and
isjusttheman to make a good
assessor. Mr. Saling has lived here
for years, knows everybody, and
knows every acre of land in the
county, and he will do equal and
exact justice between the taxpayer
and the county.
C0MMISS10NKR.
Ed S. Cox, of Uardmau, is the
Republican candidate for county
commissioner, and he is well fitted
for the responsible position. He
la a pioneer of the county, knows
all about her roads and bridges,
and is a fanner and stockman. No
better man could be selected for
tho place, and when you vote for
Ed Cox you may rest assured that
you are doing right.
COUNTY CAMPAIGN.
The Republican candidates have
toured the county this week and met
the olo face to face. They were ac
companied by Hon. S. M. Yoran, of
Eugene, who made the principal
upeeehes, all of which were good, prac
tical, common-senna talks, causing no
partisan bitterness.
The candidates were everywhere re
ceived with warm welcome and were
lintetied to with close attention.
Manv new people come to Heppner
these days, and they all praise the
Palace Hotel. And well they may, for
it is now one o tjift best-kept hotels on
(tin const.
Jl B-Tjwmson-
JOINT 8ENAT0B.
The best man to vote for for
joint senator is Asa B. Thomson.
He has lived here all his life, and
is in the prime and vigor of young
manhood. He is a practical farm
er and stockraiser, and knows very
thoroughly the best interests of
Eastern Oregon, and will work for
those interests.
FOE TREASURER.
In fixing up your ballot, be sure
to put an X at Mat Lichtenthal's
name. Mat is a good, competent,
reliable man. All the old residents
know this, but there are hundreds
of new voters in Morrow county
who can rest assured that Mat is
all right He has always been a
good citizen and taxpayer, always
a prompt and reliable business
man. He has kept the credit and
good name of Morrow county right
up to the highest standard at all
times, and has handled the county's
funds with marked ability.
Just the day the state tax became
due from Morrow county, just that
day Mat Lichtenthal rustled it up
and paid it over. He is always
prompt in everything, and has pro
ven such a good treasurer that he
richly deserves the honor of a re
election. Treasurer Lichtenthal has al
ways been an industrious, energet
ic man, and has been one of the
leading business men of Heppner
for many years. He is the head of
the well-known shoe store of Mat
Lichtenthal, which does business
all over this and adjoining counties.
In voting to re-elect Treasurer
Lichtenthal you vote for a man
of experience who will continue to
manage the important office with
credit to himself and the people of
the whole county.
COUNTY CLERK.
One of the most important offi
ces in the county is that of clerk,
and Vawter Craw ford has filled the
position during the past two years
to the satisfaction of all. Mr.
Crawford is efficient and obliging,
and always accommodating, and
any man, woman or child who goes
to the clerk'B office for information
gets it readily and willingly.
Vawter Crawford has well earn
ed a re-election, and the voters will
make no mistake when they thus
honor him, for he is a clean candi
date and a competent young man.
FOR SHERIFF.
J. VV. Becket is the man to vote
for for sheriff, for he has all the
qualifications necessary to make a
good sheriff; he is one of the pio
neer farmers of this county, and
his home is at Eightmile, where
by industry he has made a produc
tive farm and created considerable
taxable property.
In the important office of county
commissioner Mr. Becket has
shown himself to be a man of good
business ability, careful and consid
erate, and just to all. He has the
full confidence of the people, and
will make a sheriff the people may
well be proud of.
1U8TRICT ATTORNEY.
The Republican candidate for
district attorney, Judge J. A. Fee,
of Pendleton, is a man of ability
and of long experience in the law.
He should poll every Republican
vote aud doubtless will do bo,
CORONER AND SURVEYOR.
The candidates for these two offi
ces, Dr. Iluulock and Harry Cum
mings, are competent men, and will
do their full duty. They deserve
to be elected by large majorities.
DECORATION PAY.
Memorial services for the nation's
dead were held in the M. E. church last
Sunday, and the sinking by the choir
was very tine. Rev. C. D. Nickelsen de
livered the memorial sermon, and sev
eral veterans of the civil war occupied
front seats. On Wednesday Decoration
day was observed as a leal holiday, the
hank remained closed, and the graves of
veterans in the Heppner cemetery were
strewn with flowers by merubera of
Rawlins Post, U. A. R.
Rawlins Post went np to the cemetery
in carriages, headed by the Ladies' Cor
net Pand in the Palace Hotel 'bus.

THE GOOD OF ALL.
Morrow county is in the Second
Congressional District. In this
district Mr. Moody is the Kepubli
can candidate for congress. Mr.
Moody is well worthy of re-election.
The man who votes for Mr.
Moody votes for his own home in
terests, for Mr. Moody has been
one of the most untiring commit
teemen in the House, and his at
tention is always devoted to the
measures which affect the interests
of his district and state. The
measures which he has originated,
or of which he has been cleat ly
the champion, are those which con
cern the best interests of Eastern
Oregon.
He has co-operated with all
members of the delegation in their
efforts for legislation necessary to
the state, and a man of his fidelity
and energy should be returned by
an overwhelming vote. He de
serves the gracious compliment of
an increased majority.
SUFFRAGE.
It does not seem to The Orego-
nian that woman suffrage would do
any good, and it does seem that it
would probably do women a good
deal of harm; but until the women
in any appreciable numbers ask for
it, the sunrage seems to the aver.
age man of intelligence a purely
speculative rather than a practical
question. So Ions as the majority
of women vigorously oppose the
enlargement of the suffrage, it
would be absurd to endow them
with it unless the majority of men
believed, which they evidently do
not, that this radical enlargement
of the suffrage is necessary to the
protection of the equal rights of
women or would be beneficial to
society.
Give women full political suf
frage and with it comes the duties
and responsibilities of the ballot.
If the woman merely meekly du
plicates ber man's ballot, the gift
to her is worthless. If she becomes
a voter with determination really
to govern as well as cast a perfunc
tory ballot, then to become a gov
erning, forceful woman she must
become a masculine woman, which
ultimately means adesheltered, de
sexed woman, a political fishwife
abroad and a social kill-joy at
borne. Before you vote for woman
suffrage find out if it means that
wives and mothers are to be order
ed from home and locked up all
night in jury boxes? What true
woman would deshe such "rights"?
REPUBLICAN RALLY.
The Republican county candidates
held a second rally in Heppner last
evening, on which occasion the Park
Garrigues opera house Was well filled,
Hon. S. M. Yoran was the speaker of
the evening, and delivered an offhand
address which was plain, logical and
gentlemanly.
Hon. W. R. Ellis presided, and the
county candidates were on the platform
and made brief remarks, Mat Lichten
thal making an excellent showing of
county finances.
EQUAL SUFFRAGE.
In its lengthy address to the voters
the Oregon Equal Suffrage Association
says:
"Everybody knows that the enfranch
isement of the women, of all the states
is coming ; that , it is inevitable. Ore
gon today is the only state where an
equal suffrage amendment is pending.
She, and she alone, is in a position to
lead the van of progress in this import
ant movement in this dawn of the new
century. Let her voters do their duty
by marking their ballots 'Yes' for the
equal suffrage amendment, and she will
go into imperishable history as the first
state of the Pacific coast to place tbe
insignia of liberty upon the brows of the
mothers of her soldiers and statesmen.
By this act of simple justice you will
place Oregon in a position where she
will advertise her own greatness and
thus enhance your prosperity without
coBt to yourselves.
CIRCUS COMING.
With tinkling bells on dapple grays
and a most beautiful wagon, Advance
Agent Jos. Fleming drove into Heppner
Monday morniDg and billed the town
for Leondor Bros, big one-ringed circuB,
which will be here Tuesday afternoon
and evening, June 5. Come to town on
that day and see the show. Bring the
children, and it will ne a Drignt spot in
their lives. Tbe circus brass band wil 1
nlav. and there will be wonderful per
formances by the finest troupe of
trained dojs in tbe world.
CARD FROM HENRY GAY.
I see it stated in the public prints that
I bave repudiated the prohibition ticket.
Some things that I said immediately
after the convention mitrht have been
so construed, but I want to say here
and now that I am in the fight and the
fight to the finish, on the straight un
compromising prohibition ticket for
sheriff of Morrow county, and I cnhesi
