China New Year commenced Wednes day and will continue until February. The few Celestials in Heppner have, been preparing for the occasion, and great will be the destruction of fire crackerB and gin. If there is any time on earth that the almond eyed heathens enjoy themselveB, it is on China New Year. If they have the money, no expense is spared in getting all the good things from the Orient. Fun, bad smells and lots of noise will be the delight of the sons of Confucius for the next ten days.

Free movements in the fat stock from Utah, Idaho and Montana have caused a lull in the market. The Union Meat Company recently received a shipment of 1000 beef cattle from Utah. The demand for mutton sheep is fair at about $4 10 per hundred in this market. Hogs are worth about $5.35 and good beef stears are quoted at from $4.25 to $4.30 in Heppner. Officers Installed.

Thornton came in Saturday evening from a tour of inspec tion in the north end of the county. Mr. Thornton started out on the 15th inst. and visited Lexington, lone, Douglas and with the road supervisors visited the roads in these districts. As sr-on as the weather will permit, Mr. Thornton w ill commence active work as outlined in a recent issue of the Gazette. Nothing can be done at the present owicg to time bad weather. iiki;iit OI TLOOK. Says Secretary (iwliui of State Association. J. II. Gwinn who was in tbe city at tending the meeting of the Heppner Woolgrowers' Association talked quite encouraging for the outlook of the sheep and wool industry to a Gazktte re porter. "I think the outlook is very bright," said Mr. Gwinn. "There is rather a dark cloud now, but almost every cloud has a silver lining." "I have reference to the limit grazing law which is now agitating the sheep men. This law, if passed would mean the annihilation of the ebeep business. It would very much curtail the business of Eastern Oregon. "There are now 2,000,000 sheep worth $4,000,000," continued Mr. Gwinn. "It is not necessary to figure the wealth pro duced by these sheep. I have con fidence enough in the good judgment of the Oregon law makers to believe that they will not cripple Eastern Oregon by passing this law." "I am pleased with the enthusiasm sbown and the good start made by the Heppner Woolgrowers' Association. It is right in line with the state organiza tion." "The Oregon Woolgrowers' Associa tion has been practically reorganized in Eastern Oregon, and ij now on a basis to accomplish results." "The auxiliary organizations over the country are getting "into line. Each local association is allowed a repre sentative to the state organization for every 30,000 sheep owned." Heppner has a strong organization which is starting off right. A tiOOU AIIOI.TITIKXT. IWr. Itlorrnu's Appointment Will he Very Satisfactory. In speaking of the appointment of Hon. J. W. Morrow as state land agent by Governor Chamberlain, the Salem Statesman says : Mr. Morrow is probably one of the best known Democrats in Eastern Ore gon, and is amply able to fill tbe high position for which he is chosen, and Governor Chamberlain is being com mended very highly on making this se lection. The change will take place on April 1st. This appointment seems to have more significence than appears upon the face of it, for it develops new complications which confronted Governor Chamber lain relative to his appointmont of a su perintendent of the Penitentiary, for which lucrative position there are a number of aspirants. On account of the limited number of appointments which are in Governor Chamberlain's power to make, he will no doubt endeavor to cut his official pie that it may be apportioned equally, or as nearly as possible, over the state. In that case, Eastern Oregon being now already awarded its position in the appointment of Mr. Morrow, some prominent Democrats are now of the opinion that the candidacy of J. A. Pouthit, of The Dalles, editor of the Times-Mountaineer, who is an aspirant for the superintendency of the Peniten tiary, is now removed, and that this plum now hangs over Marion county, between two strong factors of the Dem ocratic party, W. II. Downing and ex Shenff Frank Durbin. nii:i) vi'isv vol Mi. In popularity of tlie llur leifrli t.rr:i r in); Law. Preaching at the M. E. church South, Sunday, February 1st, at 11 a. m. and 7 p. m.

Hynd have returned from a trip to Portland and Salem. They were up to Salem last Thursday when the Burleigh one mile limit law was before the houafc committee on agriculture for investiga tion. After careful inspection of this unjus'' bill, R. F. Hynd, ex-secretary of the Oregon Woolgrowers' Association wb? . 1 ii l ? a a I - - 1 asKeu io explain me claims oi me sneer, men.
