Wo learn from the Ileppner Osette
that Morgan Ward hat established a
new date for Christum t. At their Christ
mat tree in Lone Rock, In a spread
eagle burst of oratory that would have
brought down the halls of congress,
Morgan let aside the 25th day of Bep
tember at a date to be observed as
Cbrittmni hereafter, declaring that Is
the date Christ wat horn. 8anta Clans
will objeqt to the change perhaps more
than anyone else, as he'll have to "go
It" on a wagon after this, Instead of the
old familiar sleigh.
There Is still a possibility of the time
In which to make payment on railroad
land being extended. A dispatch from
Washington, dated Dec. 81, 1896, ssys:
"At the request of Representative Ellis,
Secretary Francis issued an order today
suspending entries after Jan. 1st on for
feited railroad grants, which will pre
vent contests on lands where settlers
failed to make payments at required.
This suspension will be in force until
congress can past a bill extending the
time in which payment can be made.
Extension bills are now pending in both
houses." .
Senator Dufur's Views.
Oregonlan.
Hon. E. B. Dufur of The Dulles, state
senator-elect, representing Wasco, Sher
man and Gilliam counties, it a guest at
the St. Charles, and will remain in the
city for several days. In an interview
with an Oregonlan reporter concerning
forthcoming legislation and the senator
ial election, Mr. Dufur laid :
"I have, been to busily employed In
professional labor that, to far, I have
not been able to give much thought to
legislative work. I can assure you that
I will be in favor of wholesome legisla
tion, something that will prove benefi
cial to the state at targe, and, in a meas
ure, relieve tax payers from the heavy
burdent now Imposed upon them.
"I believe that the time bat come
when the railroad commissions should
be abolished. If that Is found impossi
ble, then I favor the suggestion hereto
fore made that there shall tie but one
railroad commissioner. It it different
with the position of fish and game pro
tector. That office should be maintain
ed. Good results have come from it In
the past, and, properly administered,
it will prove of benefit to the state,
"I do not think the ttate board of
eqnalixallon hat been an entire success.
Men who have been elected at assesrers
In the several counties have apparently
done their work conscientiously, and
they are in a position to know values.
At an additional safeguard to their
work, It I reviewed by a county board
of equalisation, ami it does seem that
this should be sufficient without having
to sustain an additional board of equali
sation at great expense to the state."
Regarding the senatorial question,
Senator Dufur was more reticent, not
feeling inclined todisenss the subject at
large for publication. He said:
"All that I want Is to tend a man
back to the United States senate who
will do the most good for the state. It
might be Mitchell or it may be some
other man. I am a democrat, but find
myself in a hopeless minority, so far as
party action is concerned, in selecting a
democrat for senator. A rumor has pre
vailed that I was pledged to Mitchell
before my nomination. The fact is that,
when I was nominated as joint senator,
at the convention held in this city, I at
first declined to accept. Owing to the
pressure brought upon me, and the dele
gates of my senatorial district unanim
ously urging and insisting that I should
remain on the ticket, I reconsidered my
action and consented to run.
"I did say during my canvass that, if
a democrat could he elected ai senator, I
would stand by him until the Inst gun
was fired; but, if it came to a question
between republican candidates, I would
vote fo$ Mitchell in preference to many
others. This was during t campaign
last spring, before the June election.
Then I understood that Mr. Mitchell;
would not depart from the position he
has assumed in favor of the free coinage
of silver. Since then, during the lata
presidential campaign, there are some
acts of his that did not meet with my
approval.1'
Notice,
Arlington, Oh., Jan. 4, 1807.
To the clerks of school districts In
Gilliam county, Oregon":
If your district contemplates votings
.tax this year I would direct your atten
tion to page 62 of the school laws, to the
act to secure a more convenient mode of
making assessments and of collecting
and paying taxes. Sections 3 and 4 of
this act are of interest to you, under
such circumstance. You must have
your special meeting called on or by the
21st iiiHt. in order to have the tax hold.
District 1 lost their tax Inst yeat be
cause of failure to notice this clause and
I hope all who may desire to vote a tax
this year will remember the manner of
procedure and l)egiu in time.
Supplies for your office will be for
warded soon. Any clerk needing a new
record book or a teacher's register will
confer favor by notifying me, as .they
are too weighty to send out unless need
ed. Very truly,
E, W. Daortt, County Bnpt.

John Stephens of Rock creek brought
In a large Arctic owl the first of the
week and made Dr. Geisondorfer a New
Year present of the fowl.
Beardsley and Edwards knocked off
the persimmons at the New Year's clay
pigeon shoot, getting the highest num
ber of birds of any one in the club. No
prises were given.
The weather on New Year's day wis
the finest ever seen in this latitude on
the first of the year. The thermometer
stood at 50 all day and the sun siione
like In May. The band gave an out-of
door concert in the afternoon, which
was much appreciated by all.
Dr. Geisendorfer came back from
Spokane Monday morning, accompanied
by Mrs. Geisendorfer, whose maiden
name was Miss Nettie Remington, for
merly a resident of this place. Their
many friends extend hearty congratula
tions and wish them all the happiness
possible.
SAD Gnrley was kept busy day and
night making out final" proofs on R R
land the Ust few days of the old year.
Borne wanted their proofs made out as
late as 12 o'clock at night of Dec. 31st,
having put it off nntil the last moment,
hoping that an extension of time would
be granted, but were disappointed.
People who go to an Indian ball should
be careful when they go home and not
imitate the war whoop and other pecu
liar antics. Some strangers In town
New Year's night thought that wild In
dians had broken out near Joe Ward's
residence and were about to call the
police to bang the. whole outfit before
they found out what was the matter.
The inaBk ball given by the Arion
club wai well attended, there being over
sixty masked. The first prise for the
best sustained character wis given to
Miss Pearl Wood; best dressed lady,
Mrs. S G Hawsou and. Miss Ricks; best
sustained character by gentleman was
given to Dan Smy the, "bootblack;"
Pearl Wood, "Topsy," Hawson anH
Ricks, "Turkish dancing girls."
On New Year's evening 54 Indians
gave another dance at Wenner's hall
and the door receipts amounted to $23.
They were all in full dress, according to
tbeir custom, and some of them bad war
clubs that they claim bad been handed
down from father to son for hundreds of
years. Their dancing and singing were
the same as they used before the whiles
came to this country. Many of our peo
ple had never seen an Indian dance and
it was quite a treat.

All the usual meetings of all kinds
have been postponed for the past week,
as well as the day school, on acconnt of

J S McfCinney, the saw mill man, is

trating his hand.
Much anxiety is felt among the par
ents of children in our locality for fear
the much-dreaded diphtheria will spread
among them, iu which event it 'almost
certain that many would be taken away
We are creditably informed that the
organizer for the United Astisan Insur
ance Co. of Portland will lie here some
time next week to organise a society,
having obtained a sufficient number of

Died, Jan. 4, of diphtheria, Clarence,!
the only child of Dr. Hnd Mrs. llugun, J
aged 3 years and 11 months. The funer
al took place Tuesday afternoon in the
presence of a large circle of sorrowing
friends. The sympathy of the commu
nity goes out to the heartbroken parents,
who are completely prostrated over their
terrible affliction. The father and moth
er almost worshiped the little fellow,
and to have him thus snatched away is
indeed a sad blow to them.
The work on the new road up Boone
bill has been progressing fairly well of
late. Supervisor Madden is doing 'as
much as anyone could do toward com
pleting the road with the menus and op
portunity furnished him, but it seems
to the people up here that the county
court sliould,muke a liberal appropria
tion and got the road so it will lie of
value and service to the traveling pub
lic, as the largo amount of work that
has been already put on this road is
practically thrown away unless it is fin
ished. Butcher Weyler has been relieved of
his command of the Spanish canihals in
Cuba", for the reason that the Spanish
government thinks he is too easy and
tender-hearted, and that he and his
butchers are not cutting throats fast
enough In Cuba to suit them. It is said
that Weyler 'likes blood and throat
cutting so well that be intends to start
at once to help the Turks botcher Armenian!.
Max Rlchter, of Mount Vernon, Grant!
eonnty, tried the experiment this year'
of shipping his wool clip to London on j
his own acconnt. The wool brought
12 cents and the expenses of shipping)
were 3 cents, leaving Mr. Ilichter9!
cents net for his wool. His wool was
not of an extra quality,, the best offer
he could get at home being 6 cents, so
be cleared 3 cents per pound.
Mayor I'ennoyer of Portland perform- j
ed another of his many noble deeds on j
the first of this month. When be was
elected he snid that he would accept
only one-half of the lawful salary $5000,
as he considered the amount out of all
proportion as reasonable compensation
for discharging the duties of mayor.
On Jan. 1st he turned over $1250 one
half of the first six months' salary to
the City Board of Charities, to be dis
tributed among the poor of the city.
Even his bitterest political enemies
down there pronounce it a most gracious
act and all admit that the ex-Governor
is one of the noblest men of the nation.
He expects to continue the good work
during his entire term. Most politicians
would scheme how to increase their sal
aries, instead of taking this view of it.
