SENATOR MITCHELL COMING
Hon. J. H. Mitchell will close
the campaign in Morrow county by
speaking at Heppner Nov. 5.
Why should yon vote for Mo
Kinley? Gome to the opera house
on the evening of Nov. 5 and hear
a few reasons advanced.
OUGHT TO KNOW.
There is no sense in getting ex
cited over presidential politix or
any other kind of politix.
Common sense and common bus
iness principles should rule.
Therefore the plain talk or dusi-
. 13
ness men ana taxpayers snouia
have creat weieht in connection
with the political issues of the day.
A man who is a large property-
owner ana taxpayer, ana wno
ives close to Heppner said yester
day:
"My father was a Democrat oe-
fore me, and I was a Democrat
while there was any Democratic
party worthy of the name.
''Now that there is no Demo
cratic party, I am going to vote for
McKinley, and tnere are lots or
other Democrats in the same boat.
It is the sensible thing to do.
From a business standpoint we
can do nothing else.
"I know that under the present
policy of the Eepublican party my
business and that of my neighbors
has prospered. I have now a mag
nificent clip of wool on hand for
sale, and my sheep have doubled
up on me, and I feel as though my
property was worth something.
"1 also ieel certain tnat li jar.
Bryan was elected the value of my
present property would shrink
away to nothing, as it did before
under the free trade policy.
"I have large responsibilities
resting upon me, and quite a force
of men depending opon me ior
their wages. I am not going to
endanger their interests or my
own. By voting for Mr. Bryan I
am sure I would do so."
VOTE RIGHT. -
It comes home to every sensible
man in Oregon that what he wants
out of the presidential eleotion is
results good results.
He must admit that results un
der Democratic tree trade were
very bad. Results under Repub
lican policy are good.
The way to continue these good
results is to re-elect McKinley.
The matter of having good or
bad times rests with the voters.
HE KNOWS.
G. W. Hunt, the railroad con.
tractor, is a man of national ex.
perience and large caliber. He
sees things from a business stand
point. Ue is In Heppner now, and
said publicly yesterday:
"If Mr. Bryan is elected, the
country is going to see bad times
very hard times. There is no
question about it.. I am an old.
time Democrat, but my common
senso tells me not to vote for
man whose policy woulo bring ca
lamity upon the country. I have
been through hard times before,
and don't want to go through them
again."
Col. Frank Wilkeson, Populist
member of the legislature, says:
I am an expansionist and believe
in holding the Philippines for com
mercial reasons aB well as a mili
tary and naval base. I have paid
taxes for thirty years to establish
eastern manufacturing industry,
and now, when the Northwest has
a chance to establish manufactur
ing industries to supply the people
of Asia with finished products, I
am a high tariff advocate. I want
our coast built up and commerca
established.
I believe that the sucoesa of De
mocracy will direotly and disas
trously affect my pocket; that it
would if carried to a logical con
elusion create industrial and com
mercial , lethargy on the- Pacific
coast
CLOSE OF CAMPAIGN.
People outside of Heppner will
find interesting doings here on
Monday evening, Nov. 5.
Ex-U. 8. Senator Mitchell will
be here and make an able speeoh
on the political issues of the day.
Senator Mitchell has been in
publio life for a long term of years,
and thoroughly understands na
tional affairs. He is a man of
ability, and will make a good
speech.
On this aooasion there will be
martial music and a torchlight pro
cession.
People 1 from the surrounding
country are cordially invited to
come.
UNJUST TREATMENT.
Considering its size and business
importance, the town of Heppner
is being treated very shabbily by
the Western Union Telegraph Co.
and the Pacifio Express Co.
These powerful corporations, al
though abundantly able to give the
people all reasonable conveniences,
keep their offices of a mile away
from the business part of Heppner,
Jreople who have to do business
with the companies now have t
pleasant picnic reaching their far
away offices, especially when they
go after dark. When the sidewalk
gives out, the traveler takes to the1
county road, which recent rams
and hundreds of wheat-wagons
have naturally put in hue condi
tlon for the wading of foot-travel
ers.
On account of the express com
pany keeping its office out of town
Heppner people are paying nearly
$400 a year for having their ex
press packages delivered, while in
other towns this Bame express com
pany does all delivering free.
The post office department and
the long-distance telephone com
pany keep their offices in the center
of town, and Heppner should use
them instead of the telegraph and
express which denies them the
modern conveniences furnished to
other towns.
FUNNY FRENCH.
Geo. V. French, formerly of Hepp
ner, now of Olympia, Is not only a live
business man, but also a humorous ob
server of nature. In writing from the
Puget Sound region to a citizen of
Heppner, Mr. French said :
"Well, it is a little wet down here at
present. We haven't seen the sun for
15 days. Our pump is only 6 feet from
our kitchen door and I have not used it
for three weeks. It lias always rained
the bucket full before I could gat to the
pump.
"We have splendid fishing here and
at present it is no tronble to get bait, at
the angle worms have come up on the
sidewalks to get out of the mud and all
we have to do is to pick them up.
"it is nothing unusual to see moss
growing on the roofs ot houses 6 Inches
deep, and a man came into my store to
day with moss on his back 3 inches long.
"Boo-raw for MoKinley."
REPUBLICAN RALLY.
Hon. T. T. Geer.'governor of Oregon,
arrived in Heppner Tuesday evening
and was met at the depot by G. W.
Phelps and R. F. Hynd, chairmen of
the state and county committees.
At the meeting tho governor's address
wag an able and convincing one. a
large American flag formed a beautiful
background to the opera house stage,
and large oil portraits of McKinley and
Roosevelt stood on easels at the front.
On the platform sat G. W. Phelps,
who presided ; s Mayor Frank Gilliam,-
George Conser, Judge Ellis, Judge Bar
tholomew, Postmaster Vaughan and
J. Q. Wilson. .. . !
The Heppner Symphony Band ren
dered most excellent music, and the
audience was large and appreciative.
Gov. Geer had his facts and figures
well in hand, and freely asked all pres
ent to question him or challenge any
statement be might make. He was very
fair in all bis arguments, and made a
good impression on his audience.
The governor drew strong pen-pic
tures of free trade times and protective
tariff days, and illustrated their effects
on the great wool industry. He talked
from a farmer's, standpoint, for be has
been a farmer all bis life,- ad showed
that Mr. Bryan's policy was Insincere-,
and that the latter's whole campaign
was' beinz conducted along insincere
lines. Itryan ws trying to array tM
poor against the rich, which was unfair
and dangerous.
Speaking of imperialism,' Gov. Geer
said tbat it was a trumped-up issue, and
proved his assertion' by quoting good
Democratic authority. He showed the
absurdity of the schoolboy speeches oi
Bryan, who was called tha boy orator
of the Platte because the stream was a
mile wide and only six inches deep.
The river sometimes dried up. , , In this
it differed from Bryan who bad chosen
for an occupation running for president.
There are able men in the Democratic
party, Gov. Geer said, but Mr. Bryan U
not one of them. -. 1
The governor said tbat conditions bad
verymucn improved unaer me goia
standard; penitentiary inmates were
reduced one-half, and everybody was at
work who wanted to work." He was glad
of these chaneed conditions, and closed
with a sensible appeal to Democrats
and populists to divest themselve of
party blindness.
At the close of the address many peo
ple availed themselves of Mr. Phelps'
invitation to meet Gov. Geer personally.
Mr. Bryan's election to the pres
idency would mean the closing up
of American mills, and, in oonse
qnence. more business for the mills
of England and ether countries..
Hiram Hammer, one ot the
ablest of Populists, says: I am a
protectionist. I believed that nn
less we had free silver, want and
destitution would follow. The re
verse has come true. I believe that
in the future as in the past that
whatever legislation we obtain in
the interest of all the people must
come through the Republican
party. mmmmm
Mr. Isryan has always been an
advocate of the policy of giving
work to foreigners rather thau
American workmen. He is on
record as being opposed to any
measure ot protection to any
American industry. He would ad
mit to this country free of duty
the wool of Australia and of South
America, to ruin the wool growers
of the United States.

of this place, and it can be truthfully
said of him that he obeyed that divine
injunction given to all men : "Let your
