Heppner it going to make an effort to handle the wool clip of this section for '03. We eee every reason for and none against their being success ful 'as there are at least 20 bands of sheep here that are closer to Heppner .by 25 miles than - they are to Shaniko, and the wool can be hauled to the former place for much less than the latter. Close observation shows that wool has brought more in Heppner this year than in Shaniko. As the difference is a direct loss to the sheepmen, and the trade is valuable to Heppner, we wel come the efforts of its business men to bring about this much needed change which will come unless Shaniko, by making advances early in the season, secures the clip.

The location of their holdings is about 18 miles southeast of Heppner and takes in the old Matteson coal mine which has been abandoned for several years. Tbe Mattesoa property has a history and is remembered by the older resi dents of Merrow county. This mine was vigorously worked by Matteson brothers about 18 years ago. A tunael was blasted in the solid rock fir a dis tance of 1100 feet. Coal was taken out at that time which was used in Heppner, but owing to crude appliances for mining and a lack of capital, the enterprise was finally abandoned.
