In a recent number of tbeSatur daj Evening Post appears a read able, if somewhat iuiprobabie,story entitled "A Measure of Wheat" from the pea of Edgar L Hampton. The scene of the story is laid in Volk county, Oregon, near the town of Sheridan and the local coloring gives the story a jpeculiar interest to Oregonians. TEe story recites haw the hero secured an option on bis prospective fiither-in-law'e wheat crop of 100,000 bushels, in the fall of 1S97 at 30 cents a bush- ttj inA mJA !f m tVia tumnwr nf 1393 at $ 1.0a The fact that wheat old.iii Portland in the Fall of 1897 at 80 cents and in the Summer of 1898 at from 50 to 60 cents does not cut any figure with the modern novelist. The story is illustrated with some excellent engraving of wheat scenes combined harvesters at work, mountains of wheat in kacks awaiting shipment, etc etc., every one of which was taken in Eastern Oregon and is familiar to Eastern Oregon people. This is a clear case of stealing Eastern Oreg on' tbumtler.Xor the benefit of the Willamette valley and we "bunch gradsers" object to that We are glad to know that the hero of the . . i Biory uiaue a loriune ana win over the old man and married the girl aJlivjJ hvpily ever, after", but Wt enter A viirnrntia nrnTat. b train of . .Q r " - o having our 32 horse combined har vester stolen bodily from the fields of Gillian) and Sherman and Uma tilla counties and dumped down in a Polk county wheat patch where there is not room enough to turn an old Backere m J wer around.

More and more is the indepen dent newspaper bving recognixed among all intelligent people as the only right kind of a news medium for this progressive age. Tin? strict ly partisan paper is rapidly losing its influence for the reason tUit the people are demanding of their newspapers that the interests of the people shall be considered, ahead of tbe interests of the poli ticians. It is refreshing, if not a Tittle amusing, to note , ma some of the rabid partisan papers are "taking a tumble" to the situation and are asking the forgivness of their patrons for their eina of tbe past A case in point is that ef the Blackfoot (Idaho) Democrat, an erstwhile rabid", partisan) sheet and strong supporter of ex-Govern or Hunt for re-election to an ofhce which bis maladministration bad made a stench in the nostrils of the people of that state. In a recent issue the Democrat thus apologized: "We have never felt quite right in a partisan position. We' bave undergone a campaign that must have been humiliating to the a ver age Democrat, a campaign in which we were compelled to fight on the defensive throughout All this we have to Bwallow because we elected to be partisan. We now ask our patrons to forgive our hypocrisy of the past" Commenting on tbe apology the Idaho World says: That is a humiliating admission to be compelled to make. The edi tor's conscience would give him no rest or peace of mind, and he was forced to make an open confession and thereby unload the crushing burden. A strict partisan paper is always tbe kind that defends men and measures good, bad and iudifferent of its party, and op poses men and measures of the other side, whether they are good, bad or indifferent. Au orthodox paper of that kind serves no good purpose. It is a menace to good government, and also a menace to the party to which it gives its un qualified allegiance at all times and under all circumstances. If any thing bad creeps into the party, the right thing to do is to cut it out not defend it and try ti - picture it as something adorable a thing of which the party is proud, and will cling to through thick and thin and to the bitter end. A paper that starts out as a 6trict party organ must do this or be branded as a traitor. If a party changes its principles the partisan paper must change also, and today condemn what it yesterday pictured as the very personification of perfection. And what it condemmed yesterday it will endorse today. The honest voters are becoming heartily sick of those strictly partisan papers. For i little while they are without in fluence, and finally their influence works in the opposite direction from that iuteuded." A Cure for Lumbago. V. C. Williamson, of Amherst, Va., says: "For more than a year I suffered from lumbago. I finally tried Chamber lain's Pain Balm and it gave me entire relief which all other remedies failed to io." For sale by Condon Pharmacy. John Day Wagon Road. Henry Shadewitz was before the coun ty court this week with a very healthy petition praying for aid for the John Day wagon road, which the court should pay more than ordinary attention to. Mr. Shadewitz is treasurer of the association and is under $6,000 bonds to see that the money intrusted to him is judiciously ex pended. The C.S.Ry Co. has agreed to contribute $1,000 the two Kentlwarehons es are to give $500, the people will sub scribe 1 1, 000 and petition the county court for $1500 which the court can well afford to appropriate, to make up the sum of $4000 which Engineer Hammond estimates is necessary to complete the road 9 miles on 16 inch grade and m.:ke it a first-class wagon roud which would afford Gilliam county an outlet that would enhance values in the south end of Sherman county double or three times within a short time. Tne Observer is in favor of all such internal improvement. Moro Observer, "Some time ago my daughter caught a severe cold. She complained of pains in her chest and had a bad cough. I gave her Chamberlain's Coiigfi Remedy according to directions and in two days she was well and able to go to school. I have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never j known it to fail," says James Prender-i gest, merchant, Annsto Bay, Jamica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of pneumonia which in this instance was undoubtedly warded off by Chamber--Iain's Cough Remedy. It counteracts any tendency of a cold toward pneumo nia. This remedy is sold by Condon Phariuttcy, j Local Teacljana Institute. K litor Uiwk: I have a proposition which, if yon w ill giant me a little space I want to submit to the teachers of Gil liam comity and I trust it will appeal to many of Ih' pupils as well. I believe a majority, it not all teachers of the CMinty ate strongly In favor of lo cal toetititte. They ceiUinly are It they ever attended on. Rut we must all admit it it a difficult matter to gt enough temdHr togvther to hold each meeting bvcaie the comit y w a large one and the te-hei arer by reason of a sparse population, widely scattered. However it seems to me, fellow teachers that we could have a meeting of this kind souw time this year before the An nual Institute meets. Perhaps there need he other incentives than the mere fact that we "meet together for exchange of ideas and general discussion relative to edueatloual matters." Why can't we have an old time spell ing match. You" hi sometimes mis spell words that are not uncommon when by way of pvirmtiojj they re pro nounced to yon, and yon teachers who have heard some of the pupils in your best spelling classes miss 9 word out of every 10 don't you think a "spellin skule" would be a thtng not to be de spised? I suggest that our superinten dent call a teachers meeting or local in stitute to be held ai some suitable point in the conuty, when the roads become passable and before the spring schools close so that both teacher and pupils mav prepare for the "match." The teachers meeting could be held in the forenoon commencing, say at 10 o'clock and tbe spelling exercise iu the after noon. Now as to what to spell. My plan is for the Supt. to appoint a committee of three competent persons to select a list of word? in common use, say 2,000, from Webster's Dictionary, have them print ed in leaflet form, and each school in the county provided with a number of these proportionate to the size of the school. Others may he given to any who care to take part in the contest. To arouse greater interest let a prize be given the winner. A small admission fee I be lieve would defray tbe expense of print ing the words and also buy the prize. I have attended and taken part in meet ings of thfs nature and have never found cause to regret doing so. We can have at least one institute this spring if we say we can. Where there is a will there is a way. I would like very much to hear from others on this matter. Why not act in the living present? Why not instill new life iuto our work? W. F. A LUES, Condon, Oregon, Jan. 19, 1903. Mrs. Maddock has returned from Port land. Maggie remained at The Dalles to attend school. The Arlington and Pacific R R Co has baeu incorporated The capital stock is placed -at $1,500,000 and tne object is to build a road from Arlington via Condou to the mouth of the S'nnlaw river on the Pacific ocean.

Only 25c at Condon FLain.acy. . School Notes. The school is still in a very crowded condition, so much so that it is feared by the teachers that the health of the children is endangered. The following friends visited the school on Friday: Mr. W. Vanderflught, Mrs. Allie Balding, Mrs. Shaw, Miss Wallsce and Mrs. llolien. Friends come again. We doubt whether there is another school in the state of Oregon where the children or most of them go to tchuol any more regularly than here in Condon and predict a tirst-class school when we get our new school house, " All things considered, the school is do ing as well as could be expected too many pupils and too few teachers to do good work. The principal has four grades all well filled, the intermediate teacher, Miss Wilson, has three grades all full, and the primary teacher, Miss Hershner, has two grades buth full. At the Friday evening exercises the following pupils took part: Zona TVaVer gave a nice recitation, a select reading by Mins Whyte, Miss Jennie Hartshorn favored the school with a fine piece of instrumental music, Mark Portwood gave a select reading, Grace Luna gave a nice little recitation, the recitations by feacle Neale and Matthew Piiter deserv ing especial notice. Remarkable Cure of Croup. I have a few words to say regarding Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It sav ed my little boy's life and I feel that I cannot praise it enough. I bought a bottle of it from A. E. Steere, of Good win S. D., and when I got home with it the poor ba by could haidly breathe. I gave the medicine as directed every ten minutes until hi "threw up" and then I iioiight sure he was ttoing to choke to d-Hth. Vn had to pull the phlegm onl of his mouth in great long hi fine I am nsi live that if I had not got that Ixjttle of cough medicine my boy would not be an earth today.
