FRIDAY. OCTOBER 29, 1897.
THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM
COUNTY. OREGON.
Professor Jacobsen, or as he is better
known at home in The Dalles, "Jake?,"
the well-known piano and organ man,
arrived here about the same time as
Judge Bradshaw. But they didn't come
together, and they don't board at the
same bote), for the judge has given
Jakey the cold shoulder, and we give the
judge's reason in his own words: "While
attending court latelv at Condon "Jakey"
invited lue on Sunday to have dinner
with him at a friend's house, where I
found a charming nineteen-year-old at
traction of the feminine gender. The
dinner was all rigbtf but just as soon as
the table was cleared the "attraction"
left the room. Jakey followed, then the
young folks left, and lastly the old man
and old woman cleared out and left me
alone. I sat in no envious frame of mind
. for about balf an hour, and finally made
a rnn for the kitchen, where I found
Jakey comfortably seated in an old arm
chair, and the whole family chucking
him under the chin, to the music of such
endearing epithets as "Nice little Jaker."
"Dear little Jakey," "Fuuny little
Jakey." Is it any wonder I got mad and
vowed I never wonld have anvthing to
do- with him any , more?" Prineville
Journal.
Portland Welcome : The 20 members
of the Press association who went to
Baker City arrived there Friday noon,
met a few minutes in the afternoon, had
lunch in the evening, visited Snropter
Saturday, and came home if sober
enough Sunday. The press of the state
wonld have been in a terrible predica
ment it this important business had not
been attended to. The real newspaper
wea who bad to stay at home and work
should be under great obligations to the
brethren who performed this onerous
and very necessary duty. Out of 1000 or
so newspaper men in the state, only 20
attended the association, and of coarse
all of them got an office or two.
" A recently returned Kiondiker says
that the length of the polar night is one
hundred and forty-two days. What a
heavenly place that would be tn which
to tell a man with a bill to call around
day after tomorrow and get his money.

The present managers of the Butte
Creek saw mill (Messrs. Hendricks A
Steiwer, with T. L. Stewart foreman at
the mill) are endeavoring to get out 600,
000 feet of liimber this fall for the com
ing spring trade. They now have most
all kinds of seasoned lumber for the (all
trade. Their prices and quality of lum
ber, and good roads, are bringing them
an immense trade. The mill is running
at its full capacity, averaging about 15,
000 feet dailv.
at Lord A Co.'s, a
and "Gar-
car-
Just arrived
load of Stoves and Heaters an
land Steel Ranges." Would be pleased
to show them to yon when In town
There is no danger of anybody being
troubled with dyspepsia, sour stomach,
nightmares or ill temper who uses Fos
sil flour. Nothing ruins the health so
quickly and surely as bad bread, and
nothing creates so much harmony and
cheerfulness in a family as good, light
bread and biscuits, ' the kind your moth
er baked." The only way to accomplish
this is to nse Fossil flour the best and
cheapest in the world.
The "Wilson Heaters" are the finest
thing in the world to "spark" by ; they
require so little wood. Sold by Lord ACo.
For Sal. I bave for sale several
welMmproved ranches, situated in Gil
liam county, Or. Parties wishing to
purchase a good ranch on reasonable
terms, are respectfully invited to call at
the National Bank in Arlington and see
me before purchasing elsewhere. . T,
Uurlburt, Arlington, Or.
Look yonr machines over and tell
Shurte Bros, your troubles. They will
save yon money on extras of all kinds.
It is so satisfactorv trading at Lord &
Co.'s, you can get anything you want

If you want a piano or organ, be sure
to write to the Jacobsen Book and Music
Co., The Dalles, Or. Catalogue free.
The Place Where You Get the
Most Change Back.
Of course when you are baying har
ness and saddles you want the best.
I keep in stock only the very best ma'
terial, and while maintaining my repu
tation in this respect, I go to the other
extreme in keeping prices down to the
lowest point. I know that nothing
builds up business like tbe selling ot
first-class goods. I sell them, and don't
sell anything else. When yon need any
thing in my line, give me a call, and
like tbe fable of the cat, "you'll come
Dack again."
T. L. Portwood, Condon.
Good Advice.
Don't let whisky get the best of you,
but if you want the best of whisky,
wines, beer, liquors and cigars, the place
to hnd them is at tbe Summit Saloon,
in the old drug store building. A fine
pool and billiard parlor in connection
Drop in and for vonrselves. Tbe
finest line of "wet goods" in the city.
To The Public.
I have taken charge of the old Dod
son livery stables in Arlington and hope
my friends from everywberewill remem
ber me when they come to town. My
rates are very moderate and the very
best care is taken of stock left in my care.
Give me a chance. J. F. Thomas.

Desires to inform the noopl of Gilliam county that his
business is running on full time at the old stand Union
Block, Arlington, Oregon; that the flashy, misleading
newspaper advertisements and circular letters that are
flooding the country have not affected his trade; but on
the contrary, sales have been increasing. His many old
friends and customers realize that no business man will
give away something for nothing. What he Iobcs on the
"baits" he will more than doubly make up on the other
goods ho sells his customers. Look out for snares. One
of our greatest statesmen 40 years ago truthfully said:
"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all
of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of
the people all of the time."
James W. Smith's immense stock of goods
will speak for him. Call and examine the
largest stock of goods ever shown in Gilliam
county. His stores are loaded from floor to
ceiling, and as regards prices he will en
deavor to keep in the "procession."
Many of the lines are bought direct from the East in large
quantities for cash, which enables him to give his custom
era great inducements to favor him with their patronage.
He sells the Oliver Chilled plows
and extras, including the New
Departure two and three gangs,
also the John Deere plows of all
kinds, the Studebaker, Bain and
Racine wagons, hacks and bug
gies, the Standard, Acme and Mc
Cormack mowers, reapers and
hay rakes, the latest improved
Pitts threshing machinery, the
up-to-date old reliable Hodge
steel-frame headers, Holt Bros.
Combined Harvesters, Etc., Etc.
Gamp and sheepmen's supplies a specialty.
Highest prices paid for hides, pelts, etc.
When in Arlington call and get pri-
ces before closing deals elsewhere.
Lord & Co. bave just received a car
load of high-wheel, wide-tire wagons.
Parties wishing that kind of a wagon
wonld do well to see them before pur
chasing elsewhere.

The joke about tbe hubs of tbe Stude
baker wagons being made of soft wood
(maple) is too good to keep. The fact of
the matter is, they are made of hickory,
put through a patent process, which is a

that they are selling everything so cheap
