THE KNOCKER,
He Takes a Shot at the Morrow
County Coal Field.
Heppner has a knocker, and who is
be?
A communication frem Heppner to
the Pendleton Tribune, under date of
October 17, says that the Morrow
county eoal fields are uncertain and
will be nothing above the ordinary, if
they equal that.
The correspoedent quotes for his
authority Geo. A. Welle, the able ex
pert in the employ of the O. R. & N.
who has been prospecting the coal field
for several weeks.
When the article waa shown to a
prominent member of the company, be
said:
"Yon can brand this as a contemp
tible lie. Mr. Wells never said any
thing of the kind."
It ia a well known fact that Mr. Wells
is more enthusiastic over the prospects,
than any expert that ever visited the
coal fields.
Before leaving be did not hesitate to
state that he was satisfied that the Mor
row county coal fields are the greatest
ever discovered in the west.
As development work progresses the
prospects become more flattering. Ex
perienced coal miners are now at work
and at a depth of 60 feet in tunnel No.
5, a well defined measure of coal is now
being worked upon. This coal will be
ussd in Heppner before snow flies.
last at the school house grounds. It
was a case of too much besf on the side
of Lexington and the Heppner boys
were outclassed. The home team put
up a plucky game fer youngsters, but
when up against men were too light.
The score was 2b to 3 in favor of Lsx
iugton.

house purchased a lot ef 3500 bushsls of
No. 2 club wheat la't Saturday fer 53,'b
cents per bubbel. This is one of the
beet wheat sties of the season. Hepp

competition, making this place a good
wheat market.

The Lexington Vaseball team crossed
bats with the Heppner boys Saturday
The regular weekly shoot of the
Heppaer Rod and (ion Club occurred
at the grounds on the Duttoa hill, Hun
day morning last. There was a light
breese and the trap was located so that
the turn blinded the shooters. The
usual amount of ammunition was used
but the blue rocks sailed away unscatb
sd and untouched in numbers not pleas
ing to the crack shots. It was an off
day all around.
The club has purchased three new
Expert traps. One ot the new traps
was used Sunday. It is lively and the
unknown angles made it difficult shoot
ing with the wind and sua strixing the
shooters ia the face.
After the scores were recorded there
was a sort ef a consolation shoot for a
small purse which was won by Lee
Matlock m a tie shootoff.
Owing to the hard climb of getting to
the present shooting grounds, the placs
for shooting will be changed to a place
near the steam laundry which is easier
of access.
The new traps will be installed for
next Sunday's shoot.
Following is last Sunday's score :

Tho rpcu'ar price for the San Fran
cisco Weekly Examiner 'is f 1.50. You
can get it and the Gazette for l-.-o.
Just now fleppner's fuel supply it--
very short. Fer some reason dealers
are unable te obtain coal. The supply,
which has been coming from Rock
Springs Wyoming, has been cut off bub
this will probably be only temporary.. .
Nevertheless, it has caused consider
able inconvenience. Many people are
entirely without coal and the cool far.-?
evenings are beginning to be felt.
The supply of pine wood from ;th-v
Blue mountains is also short this se
son. Teamsters ars now hauling. Far
this wood $6 a cord seems to be the
ruling price which is an advance of
dollar a cord above the price asked last
fall.
Some wood has been shipped frorcs
Mosier, down in the Cascade mountains. .
This has been selling readily at $5,75
per cord delivered.
Plenty of slab wood can be obtained'
in Portland which can be delivered here'
at $4.50 per cord, but as this wood is
green and wet it is not desirable.
The announcement that there- will "'
seon be plenty of icoal at the Willew
creek mines, will be a great relief. A--,
laree amount of this coal can yet b
hauled out before the roads get bad.
Prom tunnel No. 5 at the Heppcs
Railroad A Coal Company's mine co
is now being taken out, and as soon st--the
company can get the coal sortesT?.
hauling will be commenced.
