PEOPLE WANTED.
Morrow county has plenty of
room for more than double ber
present population. She needs
many more thrifty, industrious
people who will settle up govern
ment lands and make them pro
dactive property.
Taxes are low here, j Morrow
county is almost out of debt and
well managed, and it wonld be
hard U find another part of the
world where land may be bought
at as low prices as - here. It is a
well-known fact that values are
so low that one crop will pay the
purchase price.
Productive people who are seek,
ing new locations in which to farm
or raise stock, should give Morrow
county a thorough investigation.
At its northern end Morrow
county has thousands of acres of
warm, semi-arid land that only
needs irrigation to make it produce
bountifully.
At its southern end Morrow
county has 276,480 acres of moun.
tain land, three-fourths of which
is government land still open to
settlement.
The altitude of this region rune
all the way from 2000 to 5000 feet
above sea level. It has rocky
ridges and forest jungloH, and on
much of it the snow lays three feet
deep in winter.
It has pure water, quite a
sprinkling of swales and little
prairies, and much valuable tim
ber land which may be acquired
without residence under the timber
and stone act at $2.50 an acre. It
has many sheltered basins and
low-lying ridges where farms may
be cleared tip and timothy raised
in abundance.
There is room for many moun.
tain homes in Morrow county, and
new settlers should look them up,
BRYAN FOR FREE WOOL.
Six years ago Mr. Bryan, then
Reprsnsetative in Congress from
Nebraska, was a strenuous advo
cate of free-trade in wool, and by
his vote and influence assisted in
the passage of the Wilson-Gorman
tariff with its free wool clause. In
January of this year Mr. Bryan
was asked to define his attitude on
the wool question, and in a public
speech at Columbia, Miss., hs de
clared that his sentiments regard
ing the removal of all protective
duties upon wool imports had an.
dergone no change since 1894, when
he voted for the Wilson-Gorman
tariff with its free wool clause.
If anything were now needed
to condemn the everlasting obloquy
the destructive regime installed by
the electoral vote of 1892, sheep
census figures furnish the materials
for suoh condemnation. History
records few meaner atrocities than
that which was perpetrated upon
the sheep and wool industry of the
American farmer when the free
trade satraps decreed the free wool
clause of the tariff of 1894.
Facts in abundanoe may be cited
in support of this conclusion, facts
which show how ruthlessly the
sheep and wool industry was
slaughtered by The Crime of 1894,
and how splendidly the work of
regeneration and restoration has
gone forward under the beneficient
operations ol the Dingley tariff,
The Blessing of 1897.
Every state of the Union where
sheep are bred and owned shows
almost the same tremendous rate
of gain alike in values 1211 per
cent., and in the number of sheep
now owned as contrasted with the
free-wool period which Mr. Bryan
helped to bring about by his vote
in 1891, and which, according to
his own statement, he would en
deavor to restore if elected to the
presidency.
INVESTORS.
People who have capital to de
velop unquestioned natural re
sources can find a fine field in
Morrow county.
At the head of Willow creek, 20
miles south from Heppner, num
erous veins of coal may be plainly
seen by the naked eye. In many
places large chunks have been
broken off by the elements and lie
around loose.
This may mean that there is an
endless supply and deep deposits
of coal in the heavily-timbered
Willow creek basin, and it may
mean that there are only streaks
and pockets there.
It takes capital to decide such
questions.
Certain it is that surface coal is
there, and capitalists who are wil
ling to investigate the chances of
doubling up their capital or losing
some of it, should look into this
coal proposition.
From the head of Willow creek,
where this coal is found, it is all
down grade and water level to
Heppner, the terminus of the O.
B. & N. branch. If there is coal
up there in paying quantities, coal
trains will practically push them
selves in bringing it down to Hepp
ner, and have no trouble at all
hauling empty cars up there, as
there are no divides to cross.
Even were the coal proposition
to prove but a dream, a small steam
motor railroad to the head of Wil
low creek would prove a paying
proposition in the matter of haul
ing down wood for fuel, which is
now hauled by wagon or brought
in by rail from distant points in
the Cascade mountains.
Morrow county has an endless
supply of first-class fuel in the
Blue mountains at her southern
end, and capitalists should ascer
tain if it would not be a paying
investment to make available to
her people this fuel supply of
Morrow county.
BUSINESS POLITIX.
The attitude of Democratic busi
ness men toward the candidacy of
Mr. Bryan presents a queer phase
of politics. They do not want
Bryan and the Chicago platform
with its business-disturbing, panic
producing characteristics.
They were not heard from in the
nominating convention, and they
will not be heard from daring the
noisy campaign that is to follow.
They are not saying a word now,
and they are not going to say a
word hostile to Bryan and the
party.
What the Democratic business
man has to say about the supreme
folly of changing present business
conditions he will say in the form
of a ballot next November. Unless
all signs fail, what the business
Democrat says on that occasion
will be something that Mr. Bryan
won't like.
MARRIAGE BELLS.
The marriage of Harvey S. Panel)
and Miss Mary Gentry took place at
the home of the bride's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. F. M. Gentry, on Sunday
evening, Aug. 12, Rev. A. L. Thorough
man officiating. The bride was attired
in a lovely white silk dress. The young
people will go to Idaho to make their
future home.

DIID IN LEXINGTON.
Mrs. Louella E. Beymer, wife of
Charles Beymer and daughter of
Hon. and Mrs. J. S. Boothby, after
a short illness of four days. All
that medical skill and kind
loving hands could do was done,
but on Aug. 6th the death angel
called ber home.
She leaves a devoted husband,
two small children, father and
mother, thrse brothers and one
sister, and a host of kind friends
to mourn her departure. She was
born in 1873; became a christian
in 1894, and was married to Mr.
Charles Beymer in 1896.
She possessed all the elements
of a noble womanhood a cultured
mind, a strong fai th in God, a kind
and sympathetic heart She was
was a fond and affectionate wife,
a loving and dutiful daughter, a
devoted and thoughtful sister, a
tender and painstaking , mother
aad a true and generous friend.
Her popularity was coextensive
with her acquaintanceship. Only
good was spoken of her, for her
life was above reproach.
Her character challenged the
admiration of all, and the tributes
that fell from the lips of those who
knew her from childhood were
beautiful and tender.
Her funeral sermon was preached
by Eev. A. L. Thoroughman to a
large audience of sympathetic
loved ones and fi iends. Her death
has cast a gloom over the entire
community.
May the Holy 8pirit solace every
bleeding heart.

THROWN FROM A . HORSE.
Jas. Thompson, of Hardman, met
with a serious accident last Saturday
evening. He was out in the harvest
field working with a header and word
was brought to him that his family was
sick and needed bis attention. He at
once mounted a cayuse and headed it
toward home, when the animal started
in to bucking, and after making several
jumps, caught its head under a header-
bed and threw Mr. Thompson to the
ground with sufficient force to break
three ribs. He was brought to town
for medical aid, and is now being cared
for at the home of W. W. Smead.
CARD OF THANKS.
I wish through the kindly offices of
this paper to express mv thanks to the
many kind friends in Lexington and
Heppner for their kindly offices and
sympathy in the time of my deep nfHic
tion and bereavement, in the death of
my beloved wife, Mrs. Louella E.
Beymer. Her father and mother, Mr.
and Mrs. J. S. Boothby, wish to join
me in expressions of thanks and grati
tude. Charles Bkmkr.
THE TORRID EAST.
It sometimes gets slightly warm in
the Heppner Hills, but this region is a
cold-storage yard compared with the
east, and happy are tbey who live in
Eastern Oregon's good climate.
In New York yesterday 33 people
died from the torturing heat. The
children were great sufferers, and there
were manv sunstrokes.
WORK FOR ALL.
There is plenty to do for the laboring
man in Eastern Oregon now, and will
be for a long time to come. ,
The harvest fields are crying for
bands and ranches need mbre men, and
railroad development demands workers.
The Northern Pacific is said to have
absorbed the portage road and to be
about to build down the north tide of
the Columbia. The O. R. ft N. can use
many men in improving its lines, The
Dalles Southern is going to build to
Winnemucca, the Oregon Midland is
coming up through the Klamath coua
try, and vast irrigation schemes are
projected.
Everything indicates that the labor
ing man and the man with a team of
work horses who comes to Eastern Ore
gon in search of work will have no
trouble in finding it.

plies from Ed Bishop and Gilliam &
Bisbee. He starts today to develop his
Mayflower mine in the Greenhorn
Ranee, 3 days southeast from Heppner,
