The assurance of your success
for the coming year, and each
succeeding year, depends large
ly upon your business methods.
That a banking connection is
essential to every business is
now unquestioned. When se
lecting your banking connec
tions, you should therefore
choose a bank which has the
ability and the disposition to
serve well its patrons.

Annual Clearance Sale
The long looked forward to event
is now at hand. Two things have
been uppermost in our mind in the
planning of it. First, our inflexi
ble rule that no winter goods are to
be carried over, and second, and
very important, that last year's
sales records are to be put in the
shade.
A sweeping clearance carrying all
our winter stocks before it and
leaving behind a store ready to re
ceive new, fresh merchandise
that's the object of it.

Frank Aldrich, who has been
driving a freight team for E. E.
Owsley, is held in jail on a charge
of selling liquor without a license.
He is accused of taking liquor
which he was hauling in for a
local firm from his freight wagon
and selling it along the road be
tween here and Bend.
Local people were quick tox
take advantage of the new par
cel pOBt regulations permitting
50 pound packages to be sent
within the first two zones. The
merchants have been the ones to
take the greatest advantage as
they can get goods in from Boise
or Baker cheaper in this way
than by freight. It is going to
work a hardship on the mail con
tractors and the post masters are
also going to have a much great
er amount of work to do.

Gun Club Opposed to
More Game Presenter
A meeting of the Harnev
County Rod & Gun Club was held
at The Times-Herald office last
evening and the matter of chang
ing the by-laws to provide for a
secretary to be paid. The affairs
of the Club arc to voluminous to
expect a secretary to care for
them without compensation. The
secretary wsb instructed to notify
the membership of the annual
meeting next month and add that
the by-laws would be amended at
that time to provide annual dues
in order to pay the secretary.
The matter of a deer park or
refuge where deer would not be
molested and where they could
breed was discussed and there
was a decided opposition to any
more game preserves in this sec
tion by the members present.
They think we have laws pro
tecting the game in this state
ana 11 properly enforced there is
little danger of the deer becom
ing extinct for many years. We
have a large port ion of this coun
try now in game preserves and
the members believe we should
not be compelled to forego more
of our hunting grounds for such
purpose.
Make 1914 a Better Year
Have you enjoyed the full priv
ileges and benefits of bank service
the past year? If you have not, we
invite you to associate with the
Harney County National, for the
helpful co-operation we will be glad
to give you.
Decide to have a bank account
in your own name for 1914, and
we suggest that you start the ac
count early in the year, at the
Harney County National Bank
"Your Home Institution"
The Governor Imposed On.
County Attorney Sizemore has
instructed Sheriff Richardson to
close the pool hall on Sundays.
Gov. West received a letter sign
ed by Mrs. Lizzie Lippind written
from Burns stating the pool hall
was kept open on Sunday and
that there was gambling going
on there. As a matter of fact
any one acquainted with the pro
prietors or has observed the man
ner in which the pool hall is con
ducted knows there is no gambl
ing allowed there.
The name signed to the letter
is certainly an assumed one as no
one of that name is known here.
The governor wrote the county
attorney to see that the law was
complied with and he has turned
the letter over to the sheriff.
The pool hall will be closed in
complience with the request, but
it isn't pleasant to think we have
people who will misrepresent
matters to accomplish such an
end.
Is This a Compliment?
They talk about running Bill
Hanley for Governor. If Harney
county runs Bill Hanley for Gov
ernor, Grant county will trot out
Joe Combs, and if Joe don't
make a campaign that would re
semble a whirlwind, tornado,
cyclone, Kansas twister and
Chinese Simoon all stirred up in
to a summer zephyr, well, then
we don't know Joe Combs. Blue
