ISSUED THURSDAY MORNING. Fred Warnock Kntered at the Potoffice at Heppner Oregon, i ' second-class matter. TeUBSDAY Jan. 27, 1910 Comet Brushes Earth on May 18. Haley's comet will stive the Pacific Coast a close brush this year on May 18. between the hours of 4 and 1) o'clock, p. m. and the "brush" will be something spectacular, says PiO' IVssor Charles Bnrkhalter of the Chabot observatory. The eatth will then pass through the last of the 20.000.000-mile tail of the celestial visitor, and the result mar be as dazzling a piece of fire works as this generation tas ever witnessed. The news that Haley's comet will be seen only on the Pacific coast has not hitherto been published, although the fact has been known for some time to the astronomers of the world, many of whom may come west to see the great spectacle. "Astronomers Cromelin and Cowell cf the Royal Observatory at Greeu wick have probablv made the most exhaustive researches into the history of the comet," stated Professor Burkhalter. According to the computations. Haley's comet will reach the descend ing node on May 18, 1010, when it will be in a direct line between the orbits of the earth and the sou. and it j . i b) Uappei;9 tnut the eartn will reacn that uariicuUr pciut of its orbit about the same tin.e. Should the calcula tions of the astronumeis prove to be riciJly exact, ti e touit will pass directly between the earth and the sun between the hours of 4 and 10 o'clock htand Pacifb time. "Assuming that it will naDcen tiui;i.a tha middle of this tine or 7 U. n. . it will be visible over the Pac.fic ocean, eastern Asia and MCdtera North America. Tli tun will have Bet in the eastern part of the United States, and the comet will Le therefore invisible to all psrtj of the country on that side of the Rocky mountains. Thus we have cn the western edge of the continent a opportunity of observing this transit that is absolutely unique and without precedent in the history of the comet. "The comet is near the calculated position at the present time, and there ia no reason for believing the work of Cowell and Cromelin will need much or any revision. So we can believe that the predictions of the coming phenomenon will be ful filled." Government Helps Irrigation. Washington, Jan. 22. The Senate irrigation committee today drafted a substitute for the Borab-Ballinger bill authorizing the issuance of $30, 000,000 worth of bonds to assist in the completion of Government irrigation projects. Aside from changing the name of the securities fiom bonds to certifi cates, the committee made no material change in the Borah bill, except to provide that moneys shall be applied exclusively to the completion of existing projects or extensions thereof. No new projects can be built with this fund. The committee is of the opinion that the bill can be passed through the Senate without difficulty, and Senator Jones was again delegated to confer with Sueaker Cannon to see what can be done about getting the measure through tha House. Carter told the committee Cannon would not consent to the passage of a bond bill, but wonld support a bill issuing certificates. Jones is to see if the Speaker will positively commit himself to this extent. A long and interesting session was held by the committee, in which was fought the auestion of issuing bonds or certificates of indebtedness. The principle on which the proposed legislation is based is contained in Senator Borah's bill providing for the authoriaztion of a 830,000,000 bond issue. This measure was pre pared bv him after a conference with President Taft and Secretary Ballinger while the President was in the West last Summer. Whether certificates or bonds are anthorized, the securities may be issued as needed up to a limit of $30, 000,000 and will draw 3 per cent interest, payable quarterly. The payment will be guaranteed by the Government out of the reclama tion fund. Mr. Borah and supporters of a bond issue believe that form-nf security would ba the most readilv marketed. According to the figures before the committee. $1,400,000 oat of the $30. 000,000, is intended for the Klamath project: $50,000 for Umatilla, $t, 400,000 for Yakima. $2,337,000 for Payette -Boise and $050,000 for the Minidoka project. New Feed Store. Cold Weather in Harney. Harney county has been eiper fencing colder weather tbia month than for tbe past four years. The thermometer has been registering 24 degrees below zjro in this citj, and at tbe Narrows, on Malheur Lake, 32 below zero. The coldest period in the history 0f Harney County was from December 15 to January 19, during all of which time tbe thetemometer registered 3 to 24 degrees telow zero. The stockmen are losing their animals by the thousand. The sheepmen la toe btein .Mountain country have not been feeding for the past three winter?, and the cold weath er his caught them without sup plies. They cannot purchase hay, as the cattlemen are holding it for their own use. 8everal big stock men of Harney county have suf fered heavy logs, and if the snow and cold hold on until the 1st of March, as in former hard winters, the loss of sheep and cattle will be very heavy, at hay is getting short with some of the stockiirow ers and the prica has risen from 8" to $3 per ton in the last few days, with some holding for S15 per ton. Hay, feed of all kinds, seed grain and Waitsburg flour all de livered free. Heppner Feed Store, below. Palace Hotel. Phil Cohn and Walt Richardson, Props. REWARD.
