MINOR & CO. MINOR & CO. The Heppner Gazette Issued Thursday Morning. Warnock fc Michell. Entered at the Postoflice at Heppner Oregon, as second-class matter. Thursday October 20, 1903 Newspaper reports Lave it that Hearst will start a paper in Port land. If be does it will be many years from now. Strangers coming to Eastern Oregon at this time of year are all very much impressed with the beautiful weither. The fall sea eon is simply grand in the Inland Empire. D. R. N. Blackburn, ex-Attorney General of Oregon, who died at Albany recently, was an able and prominent man. He leaves a very large circle of friends throughout the state. Evidences of the flood as far as the looks of the town are con cerned, are gradually wearing away in Heppner. Sidewalks are being replaced, many new build ings are being finished and nor mal conditions are being assumed. This has been a very busy fall and an increased volume of business is reported in all lines. The hundted or more Oregon editors who met in Salem last week and had a big time, never complained anything about Salem's bad water. Disease germs in water did not bother this crowd. CARE OF INDIANS. The Good Koads Association has endorsed the proposition of the employment of convicts for mak ing roads. This may work all right but there is all kinds of room for an argument on the feasibility of the scheme. The recent meeting of the Good Roads Association worked up con siderable enthusiasm and passed some very good resolutions if noth ing more. The sum of $3,000 is asked for to carry out the work of the organization. The emnlov- i ment of convicts for road work was endorsed, and an appropria tion of $100,000 urged from Con gress for the office of Pablio 'Road Inquiries, in order that object les son roads may be constructed in all the states. Statistics show that the Indians are well cared for in the United States. From the appearance of the roving bands that are common in Eastern Oregon, looks would hardly bear out this statement, but most of the roving bands belong to a class who try to shift for themselves in living in 'a wild state against the battle of civiliza tion. Indian reservations in this coun try cover a territory equal to that of all the New England states, New York, New Jersey, and half of Pennsylvania. The states enu merated contain a population of about 18,000,000 people, while there are only about 250,000 In dians for an equal amount of ter ritory. Then, the Indians have $240, 000,000 in the government vaults, an amount which, divided per cap ita among those who receive it, makes them the wealthiest people on earth. They have the most elaborate school system ever de vised by a nation for its wards, and in showing a willingness to do everything to help the Indian to live comfortably aud make a man of himself the government h with out a rival. For smashing records by bar ness horses, this season has already eclipsed all previous years, in fact it has become almost a weekly oc currence. Dan Patch has clipped three quarters of a second from the wonderful pacing record made by Prince Alert of 1:57 ilat, and now comes Lou Dillon, the queen of the turf, with a mile to her credit in 1:58. This is the second time that this wonderful mare has broken the trotting record this year. For Rent Pleasant rooms in healthy locality. Electric lights, bath and tele phone, also convenient to nice private boarding house. Terma reasonable. Gentlemen only. For information call at Gazette office. 62tf Police. There will be a meeting of the stock holders of the Heppner Building and Loan Association, on Saturday at 2 p. m., November 14, 1903, at the First National Bank of Heppner, for the pur pose of transacting such business as may come before it.

The output of the LaGrande sugar factory for the first half of the season, was 1G.500 sacks of sugar, on October 24. The season will close about November 15, Charles M. Patterson, of Port land, died Thursday from injuries received in a burning building last Monday. His wife was burned to death at that time, and he lingered in terrible suffering. They were- buried in one grave.
