WHY CONDON PROPERTY
IS A GOOD INVESTMENT
There are no rival towns
near and all the best tillable
lands in Gilliam County are in
the vicinity of Condon.
It is almost an assured fact
that WITHIN TWO YEARS
we will have a system of elec
tric lines from this point to
various parts of the country,
South and West of here.
There is no town in this
state that id a county seat and
has the prospects of being one
of the best school towns, and
otner natural advantages.
where business and residence
property can be purchased at
such LOW PRICES as exist
ing here.
CONDON has never had
such prospects of becoming a
town of importance as at the
present time and lots are sure
to DOUBLE IN VALUE with
in 12 months.
I am back at the old stand,
for terms and prices, call and
see me.

locust would prove the shade tree
best adapted to this soil," thus
spoke R. H. Weber, of the Dalles,
state commissioner of horti

reporter, when in Condon last
week. "I think that in the

Mr. Weber is optimistic regard
ing the future of his home city
and said that within ten years he
expected to see The Dalles the
the second city, in size, in the
state. "Easterners who have
conme to The Dalles recently to

astonished to find how we grow
such fine fruit without irrigation.
When they visit our orchards
they are all the more astonished, "
added the man from the Cherry
City. Mr. Weber owns orchard
lands at Hood River and in the
Mosier valley. The White Sal

him as a fruit section because of
the expense incident with the
clearing of the land, which costs
nearly three times as much as in

CONGRESSMAN ELLIS
MAKES FINE ADDRESS
Congressman Ellis' address in
the Court House on Wednesday
evening was attended by an ap
preciativr audience of both Re
publcans and Democrats. He
was introduced by M. Fitzmaur
ice. His talk was on the politi
cal topics of the day and he first
took up the revision of the tariff,
advising his hearers that inas
much as the tariff needs revising,
it would be done much sooner
under a Republican administrat

As a result of a cutting fracas
which occurred at the Barn sal

evening, Joe Shaughnessy of
Condon, has been bound over to
await the sitting of the grand
jury of Wasco county in Novem
ber, on a charge of murder in the
first degree against Andrew
Wilcox.
According to the Telegram cor
respondent from The Dalles:
'The trouble arose over the
possession of a dog belonging to
Shaughnessy, who vibited the
Barn saloon, where Wilcox was
bartender, and when he was
ready to leave could not find his
dog, and claimed Wilcox stole

Howard Heaters are money Savers. Examine one
at W. L. Barker & Co.
The Howard air tight over
draft heating stove is a de
parture from the ordinary, both
in construction and principle,
and though new has been on the
market long enough to be thor
oughly tried, tested and endorsed
by thousand of users. They are
made in round and oval patterns,
and for all kinds of fuel. They
are durable in construction, at
tractive in appearance and pop
ular in price. The material,
workmanship and finish is first
class throughout.
The Howard stove has heavy
cast diaphragm check draft, fire
pot and grate; is lined above the
fire pot with heavy cast lining
from fire pot to top.
Among the special features of
the Howard Stove are the Inver
ted conical base, by means of
which the heat is radiated direct
ly to the floor, warming the floor
perfectly. The diaphragm check
draft, preventing the waste of
heat by escape up the flue, thus
utilizing all tha heat produced
by the fuel; and the intensely
heated overdraft, which sup
plies the proper amount of
oxygen to produce and maintain
a perfect combustion, utilizing as
fuel all the gases and combust
ible elements of the coal, render
ing the stove comparatively
smokeless, and explaining why
the Howard consumes so much
less fuel than other stoves.
