Senator-elect Walter M. Pierce, law
yer, farmer and stockman, was in the
the city yesterday attending the I. 0.
O. F. dedicatory exercises.
n the upper house of the Oregon
legislature, , Mr. Pierce w:' represent
the district comprising Morrow, Uma
tilla and Union counties.
For a few minutes Mr. Pierce talked
with considerable interest to a Gazkttk
reporter in ontlining his ideas of need
ed legislation at the coming session of
the Oregon law makers.
"I believe that every county should
have its own attorney," said M, Pierce,
"for (he reason that the present dis
tricts are too large, making the present
system of little value to the remote dis
tricts. Without extra cost to the state
of Oregon, each county should have a
countv attorney who could act as ad
viser for the county court and all legal
matters of the county and the prosecu
tion o' criminal cases. For instance,
the district attorney for Umatilla and
Morrow counties now receives a salary
of $;!00() per year. I would favor an at
torney for Morrow county at a salary of
if 1000, an an attornry for Umatilla at
$2000 a year, thus giving better service
at no greater expense. This would ap
ply to every countv ol the state. I favor
making pach countv a district. I have
drawn a bill of this kind."
"I also favor an inheritance tax law,"
continued Mr. Pierce, "taxing a'l estates
valued at $20,000 and over. This
would bring in a revenue amounting to
$500,000."
"P.eing interested in the question of
better roads, I favor a law similar to the
one in the state of Ohio, making it
possible for the residents of any district
to petition the county court and secure
aid in road improvement where the
residents are willing to help bear the
burden of expense, of course making
this optional with the people."
"I also favor a fellow servant law,
making a corporation or company, or it
might be well to say the employer re
sponsible for any damage caused by the
negligence of incompetent employes."
"I fchall also favor the abolishment of
the present five mile school tax levy,
making it the duty of the county court
to set aside a sufficient sum to furnish
$75 for each school district and $0 per
capita for each child of school age in the
dilferent districts. Thi? with the
amount from the irredu'iibUi school fund
would make about $8 per capita not in
eluding the $75 apportioned,"
"I favor changing the time of pay
ment of taxes from spring to fall."
"I desire to know how the people feel
on the limit grazing law and the scalp
bounty law, and it will be ray aim to
represent the 40,000 people in my dis
trict in a matiDer that will benefit
them."
I'ioiicer Morkmnn in Town.
T. J. Matlock, a prominent stock
raiser and well known pionner of Hep
pner, was in the city yesterday on busi
ness and pleasure combined.
Mr. Matlock is highly elated over the
prospects of the Heppner coal mines,
and says that town is feeling the effect
of the promised prosperity of that great
indnstry. Paulding is going on, im
provements are being made and a
general air of thrift is noticable on every
hand.
Mr. Matlo.-k has some pnsture land
on Upper Hutter Creek, which lias
erry indication of containing coal de
posits and naturally follows tlie develop
ment of the Heppner roal fields with
great interest. He has been engaged
for years in growing thoroughbred stock
horses , sheep and hogs, and says the
demand for better grades of liveti xk is
increasing at an astonishing rate.

herds are accordingly diminishing, but
