SENATOR TURNER OLIVER CON
TINUOUSLY ON LOOKOUT TO
STOP GROWTH.
To hie credit and erectly to the
benefit of every rancher to Wallow
and Union counties, Sena-tor Turner
u.ucr U giving as much of his at
:aiion as possible to ferreting oat
iu.cbas o mus.ard weed In
i.s two counclts, and is taking an
active interest la. laboring to check
and eradicate the pest. The woei
3a ij- has fascned upon many por
..0.3 of Union county to the detrl-
jj, of Union coanty lands. And
i-s that eich tied! bears as many
, i sevds, the danger of such
a p:t is appar.cn i to every rancner
iu the county.
Fine fo;Let'Jng it Grow.
It will be of in eresL to all resi
Jsats of the co .oty to kr.ow that
i fi- -' Xrom$50 to $100 for eaih

a.e subject, to a fine of $500 paid
o the county, . in addition to the
fines individuals may be subject

Nature of Weed.
i. aa.o: Oliver has made a close
o this dangerous pest, and
;kii.y land bolder will agree with"
: ve says ..hit a few vig
j: o :s piesecutions are necessary in
o check the encroachments
. -p n ti-e land. So far'
-a ieaa or has observed, there
is little of the weed in Wallowa
c-jaaty. But Union county la over
. -1 with it and whole fields in
y:aces are choked by it and crop3
'. iiued. Along the railway, the only
paint at which the Senator has ob
served tbe wead in this county is
.3 it the O. R. & N. station In
oj2h. Here it may be said that
a.i railways are subject to a maxi
.jja flee of $100 for permitting the
sed to grow along their right of
The weed is carrkjd into the
tD-Uity by freight cars and the seed
is so small that its dissemination

is so shaped when ripe as to roll
before the wind like a tumble

lieves that proper cutting of the
past will exterminate it, in that
the seeds do not appear to retain
vitality year' upon year as those of

We always like to meet with Hrs. Brown,
She has the cosiest home there is in town,
A "Homey" kind ef home, yon know, a
place
Where yon can sit and sort of test your
face.
I know of houses gewgswd so with style,
That when you enter you pot on a smile
A sort of social shine, as yon might sy,
So that you'll harmonize and be an iz it.
Bnt oh, how dreadful tired I should got
If I should train forever with that set.
Ko, give me Mrs. Brown whose hippy
guest ' -
Can just lounge down and rest, and rest,
and rest.
Her rooms are low and broad, and quiet
green
That restful green, and all the pictures
lean
At comfortable angles, and yon chat '
In low and cosey tones and there's a cat,
Of coarse a cat, that yawns there in the sun
A picture of content, like everyone.
Then Krs. Brown brings out her dainty set
Of tea things, and we know that we shall
get
The very nicest, dearest cop of tea

It's always safe to copy Urs. Brown.

COURT ORDERS THOMAS
TUCKER AGAIN APPREHENDED
Last week Judge Knowles of the
circuit court ordered thait Thomas
j Tucker be apprehended. According
ly the sheriff's office served -the
order, returning ' with the prisoner.
The matter da'jes back some two
years ago when Mr. Tucker was
chained with inciting a riot at the
iiakin shewing plant in which one
man is aKeged to have been shot
thro-jgh the leg by Tucker. The case
was heard and Tucker's attorneys
took an appeal to the supreme court
'sit foiled, it teems.to file notice of
-he appeal in the required time. The
supreme court thus had no knowl
edge of the affair. When Judge
Knowles learned from the supreme
court of the status of -the case,
lie found Mr, Tucker to be within
-he jurisdiction' of this court, - and
accordingly issued the order. Just
' -aat -the attorneys for the defense
will do is not at' present known.
