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

a Polk county wheat patch where
there is not room enough to turn

Tbe next thing in order will be for
some aspiring librarian to write a
realistic novel with the scene laid
in Portland in which he will credit

apart iUints in the Portland hotel

HOES OF A PARTISAN
A'EUSTATEJt.
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?

. 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. Joel Dbmont,
