'Whatever the appropriation will be it ought to be liberal, aud we venture the assertion that Eastern Oregon will pay her share withou half as much kicking about it as Western Orecon is making about the scalp bounty law. According to the Spray Courier, Wheeler county sheepmen vril bring their wool to the Hsppner market next wool season. The Courier offers convincing argu ment in favor of Heppner. A great portion of this wool has been going to Shaniko. Heppner is 25 milss nearer and last year's sales showed that prices all around were just as good here, if not better than at Shaniko. The entertainment and reunion of the old folks and pioneers in Heppner, Saturday Oclober 18, should be encouraged and helped by every citizen. This will be the third annual meeting of this kind in this city and the spirit shown is commendable. It is a day on which father and mother and grandfather can be thown the at tention and reopect which they are entitled to. Let us all help to make the reunion a success. Representatives ef Portland printing houses make regular trips to Heppner, and they get orders for printing. The Gazette is not in. favor of patronizing outside dealers who sell groceries, mer chandise or anything else that we have to sell here. As a rule Hepp ner people do not send away very much money for anything that can be purchased here, and this helps to make Heppner a good town. There should be no exception made with the printing business. The local newspapers work every week in the year for the interest of the town and the county, and the expense of it comes out of the publishers pocket. The way to build up Heppner is to patronize Heppner people. the sentiment of the propositiot of putting a clwck in the conn house tower by private subscrip tion. The meeting wan a failure for the reason that only a few poonle attended, but this ought not to kill the enterprise, for interested parties are very likely to forget stated meetings or expert the other feilow to go. Like all question? which touch the public piil-e ;inl the pock; 1 as well, there h; quite ui!;i t. n.-c of opinion. Somu people do not care to contribute anything while others are enthusiastic in subscrib ing and soliciting funds. As there is nothing compulsory about it the success of the venture will rest with a few people. The county court believing that Heppner would reap almost all the benefit from a public clock, will not ask the taxpayers to put in the clock. If we have a clock it must be bought by popular subscription. The new court house would not be complete without a clock, but" Heppner ought to pay for it. We will have the clock and Heppner will pay for it. Almost $700 has already been subscribed.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that h by constitutional remedies. Deafnepe is caused by aD inflamed con dition of the muceus lining of the eusta chian tube.

Steel Company on account of a patent that the Carnegie Company I condition, hearing will be destroyed for appropriated. About five years ago Brislin brought a suit fur in fringement of patent, and has finally won it in the District Court, his partner having in thej meantime died. ilis attorneys say that if the court's decision is sustained by the Appellate Court, Brislin will be entitled to not Jet-s than $5,000,000 in royalties that the company has wrongfully ap propriated. The old man natur ally was greatly rejoiced when he heard of the decision. He worked at his trade for 40 years, beginning when a boy at 12 cents a day, and finally earning $11 a day. Then he began demanding his rights re garding his invention, and has ex pended everything he had in the five years' litigatition. He is three score and fifteen years old, practically a pauper, and yet the court eays this great company has LADIES' It teems that the sheep ii an animal with few friend and many enemies. Over in Idaho the law which provides that no sheep shall be run within two miles of an in habited dwelling is a crushing blow to the great sheep aod wool InoWry. In Wyoming, Montana, Oregon and all of the Western cheep producing states, there is uncalled for prejudice against the sheep. This all cones from the fact that the sheep eats grass. Take away the eheep and horses and cattle will eat up the grass just the same. The result is the same. The time has arrived when the West is being rapidly settled. Every foot of range will be utilized and what is the difference what eats the grass. Some people in Eastern Oregon want the scalp bounty law repealed because it is a benefit to the sheep industry. No other industry furnishes quicker returns than the handling uf sheep. More men are employed and more money is distributed in . jj taking care of the sheep and wool ; than in handling any other kind fj of stock. The sheep indutry j j should be favored rather than : fj antagonized as it is. fj ! I( i: I'D TWI'AYI'.RS.
