Much complaint has come to the Gazette and to the members of the city council during the past week in relation to the water that is being allowed to drain from the roofs of buildings and run across the sidewalks on Main street which is the main thoroughfare of (the city. During the past week the pavement which is at best in very bad condition was covered with ice and was an actual menace to the public. It is the duty of the city council to look after this. Proper attention will be a protec tion to both the city and the pub lic. The difficulty can be obviated with very little expense and the Gazette is of the opinion that property owners will not object to shutting off this water if their at tention is called to it in the proper manner. UAZETTi: I'O'liRATl'LATED, I.ettrr From President of Fair Com mission. Tortland, Jan. 9, 1905. The Gazette is in receipt of the following letter from Jefferson Myers, president of the Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition com mittee: Editor Heppner Gazette, nepp- ner, Oregon. My dear Sir: I desire to congratulate you on the splendid article on the city of ITeppner in your edition of Janu ary 5th. I wish that every news paper iD the state of Oregon would occasionally write similar nrticles on their cities aDd counties, and that we could impress upon the subscribers the importance of sending these papers to their many eastern friends. Such would result in an untold amount of good advertising for the state of Oregon, and would be of great value in inducing immigration and the development of our many neglected resources. Yours very truly, Jefferson Myers. Stockholders OTectliiff.
