THE COilDOfl CLOBL FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 5. 1897. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM COUNTY. OREGON. eme over to parties (it woald It is fact known the world over that nil successful newspapers have enemies. In fact, it wouldn't be much of a paper that didn't have. Even the Gixbb is no exception. And it is also a well-known fact that no successful business man or man of principle is ever found fighting his home paper. A successful business man usually has all he can do in attend ing to his own business. In 99 cases ont of 100, those who go out of their way to try to injure their home paper are com plete wrecks and failures themselves, and it is an eye-sore for them to see any one pise succeed in business. Nothing in the world is more contemptible than inch envy and jealouey. And nothing is more fatal to a town's interests than for such condition to exist. We regret, for the town's sake, that there are sev eral parties in Condon who, instead of trying to build np business for them selves and thus become useful citizens to the town, appear to have lost all am bition for anything but to try to injure the Globb and other old enterprises here that were here and doing all in their power to bnild up the town and enunty before these sore-heads came to the town, and before some of them even, this country. If these hardly be proper to call some of them citizens) would devote even )4 the energy to trying to build np the town that they do in denouncing their home paper and other old and nse JbT enterprises that have assisted in building np the town, the town would be double the size it is. Very few, if any, of these parties alluded to have any property interests in the town or pay any taxes. We leave it to the public to jptfae if the same can be said of the (ftnm: Yet these are the same parties who, in their mad desire to try to injure this paper, are trying to enconrage an other paper to be established here in a field that they know is not large enough for one paper, let alone two. rAs proof of this we call attention to the Condon advertisements in the Globe, and all of the business men here who have or do any business are now represented in its columns. But the Globe was here first, and it is here to stay and that is no josh "eyetber." If another paper can stand it, so can the Globe. As a rnle, any business founded on petty spite work is short-lived. But we do not be lieve that any man capable of running a paper successfully wonld be foolish enough to establish another paper here, when there are already three papers in the connty, with a population of only 3000. It is considerable satisfaction to us to know that the Globe's patrons and all those whose opinions are worth any thing, are prefectly satisfied with the Globe as a newspaper. Generally the class of fellows who are small enough to try to injure their home paper, belong to an element that have no influence with the better elms of citizens, and the more they work against a paper the bet ter it pays. That has been our experi ence. " The Place to Get It Fixed. If your clock, watch or jewelry needs cle miing or repairing, the best and cheap est place in Eastern Orcgen to have the work done is at Bub Watkins' shop at Arlington, one door above the poetomca.

August Anderson, Agent. uoiidon, ur, 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 500,- 000 feet of lumber this fall lor the com ing spring trade. Thev now have most all kinds of seasoned lumber for the fall trade. Their prices and quality of lura ber, and good ronds, are bringing them an immense trade. The mill is running at its full capacitv, averaging about lo, 000 feet dailv. 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 use Fossil flour the best and cheapest in the world. For Sale. I have for sale several well-improved ranches, situated in Gil liam county, Or.

SMITH Dosires to inform the people of Gilliam county that his business i8 running on full time at the old stand Union Block, Arlington, Oregon; that the flashy, misleading newspaper advertisements and circular lotters that are flooding tho 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 loses on the "baits" he will more than 'doubly make up on the other goods he 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 r 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 ers 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 u p-to-date old rel iable H odge steel-frame headers, Holt Bros. Combined Harvesters, Etc., Etc. -ae Camp 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. To The Public. I have taken charge of the old Dod son livery stables in Arlington and hope my friends from everywherewill remem ber me when they come to town. My I rates are very moderate and the very i best care is taken of stock left in my care, i Give me a chance. J. F. Thomas. Lone Rock Rumblings. Mr Ham's fine new veranda nnd wood shed is a great improvement to his resi dence property. Sunday school and prayer meeting was resumed lad week, after a suspen sion of several months. . The erection of a county bridge across Kock creek will begin next week. The lumber is being banled this week. Mrs Kate Russell of Matney was in our burg the first of the week and pur chased 430 head of wether lambs, for which she paid $710. The gentle rain shower of Tuesday was gladly welcomed by the stock owners of this section, as the grass had become so dry an i short that cattle have begun to fall off in flesh at a rapid rate. Our church people have a new preach er, Rev Clark, who has len appointed to this place for the ensuing year. Al ready about $300 has been subscribed with which to build a parsonage. The pleasure-loving people about here are arranging for a big blowout at Lone Rock on Thanksgiving, which is only right, as it looks unreasonable to leave the home town and go long distances to gatherings when they can have a great deal better time at home, and besides it keeps the money at home where it does the most good. Dr. E. H. Griffin, a life-long reader of the Globe, passed through town this week on his way borne to Arlington from couple of months' stay with friends in the Lone Rock country. He brought along for exhibit a few of the finest and largest potatoes, raised on Abe Luelling's ranch on Matney Flat without irrigation, that we have ever seen. The aged den tist is afflicted a little also with the gold fever and may conclude to go to Alaska next spring. His health is remarkably good fur a man of his age (past 78; and appears to have more vitality than most men of 50 years. He did several days' dental work here before leaving. NON-ALCOHOLIC.
