Opening of the Portage.
hat does the opening of the portage
road mean for the inland empire?
It does not mean immediate reduction
of freight rates on railroads, but it
means an immeasurable triumph for
patient and persistent people.
It means an entering wedfce into a
one-sided transportation situation that
has been the leading issue in this east
em Oregon and Washington and north
em Idaho empire for a quarter of a een
tury.
The portage will be a half a loat, at
least, for a people's dire need. Lewis-
ton, lying on the river bank, and having
'iver transportation, will literally leap
forward.
Unsettled district tributary to the
Snake and Columbia rivers will be
planted in wheat and alfalfa, and a
commerce not now in existence will be
wrung from the arid deserts of the river
counties.
The modest exercises carried out at
Celilo at the formal opening of the port-
ase, will stand in future history as the
beginning of an epoch in the Inland
Empire !
Growing out of the portage will grad
ually come the ship canal and increased
railway facilities.
It is really not an end but a beginning
of an luterstate struggle.
FeariDg lest the river should really
capture the multiplying traffic, the
great railroad system3 will build
branches, reduce rates and prepare to
me t the situation. EaRt Oregonian.
Heppner will be a dosed town
on Sunday. Everything will shut
up tight and solid with the ex
cepti m of- di ug stores for the sale
of drugs only and bakeries for the
sale of bread only.
This action was taken by the
eily council at the regular meeting
last Monday evening. The mar
shal was instructed to enforce the
Sunday closing ordinance which
provides for the closing of all busi
ness houses with the exceptions as
above stated.

Il ianoial statement of the
Fiivt National T.ank of. Heppner
published in this issue of the
Gazette is a good showing for the
prosperity of this county. The
fact that a town as small as Hepp
ner with bank deposits close to the
700,000 roRrk shows not only a
et-ong banking institution, but al
to that somebody iu Morrow coun
ty must have some money.
