HERALD : r I VOLUME 5 HEPPNER, OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1918 NUMBER 22 ft.;' . P MOONSHINE CAM: IS CAPTURED Some Improvements Needed. Another of Morrow county's "in fant industries" has been nipped in the bud. While Sheriff George Mc Duffee is a good official, a pleasant gr itleman and something of a stickler for law enforcement there are those who say that as a promotor of certain manufacturing industries in Morrow county he is a decided frost. Likewise E. M. Shutt, who aspires to step into McDui'fee's shoes after the next election, but who has recently been urging everybody to grab every dollar in sight with which to buy Liberty Bonds, joins hands with the sheriff and helps to put out of commission, or at least indefinitely postpone, a business that might have enabled its owner, had he been allowed to operate a little longer, to have taken up Morrow county's entire quota. Also County Agri cultural Agent Brown, a man who is supposed to promote every branch of agriculture in the county, joins with the other two and takes an awful fall out of the corn meal business. Sheriff McDuffee, it appears, got a hunch that. Joe Hardy was oper ating a moonshine still in a still, quiet nook up" on the east prong of Willow creek and the way the thing turned out proved that bis hunch was not all "moonshine." Joe's still was either too handy to the sheriff's oflice or he failed to keep his business still enough for last Sunday McDuffee with Shutt and Brown drove up the creek some 23 miles and started a still hunt for a still. It was still daylight when after creeping thru the brush for some time the stillness of the mountains was broken by the dirp, dropping of moonshine from the still. Hoping that Handy was still handy around the place the trio closed In only to find that he had finished his day's work and gone away. The fire still burned and the oil of joy was still dripping from the still and several gallons of Handy's handiwork was in evidence but Mr. Handy was conspicuous by his absence. The sheriff and his party then withdrew to a point of vantage and Btarted to wait for the proprietor's return and "Oft in the Stilly, (like wise chilly) Night" that followed they may have yearned for a nip of that warm, heartsonie fluid that still drip-dropped from the still. We don't know. Still, many ' folk would. Next morning when Handy, ra turned to take up liln 'dally toll In the Interest of the conservation of real moisture In dry old Oregon the watchers fathered him In- lit .the point of t-o wlifrwli'R Mr kutio." Joe admitted that he was so scared for a nilnur that I' dUn't know his own name but after ha recovered li found that lie was still Handy and tl.o 23 gallons of "whlta mule" In stock showed that lie had a mighty handy still. The place wan well delected for R'luded operation. A fine spring supplied the wuter for cooling the "worm" and the camp wan so camouflaged with trees and brush as not to be easily discovered. The plant was of 15 gallon per day capacity and for several months li been kept busy supplying moisture for the thirsty. Fifteen gallons of the boote was emptied Into the creek and it ts Mid the fish up that var have been having a big time Handy says he will plead guilty when brought to trial. He Is In the county Jail but will probably be taken to Portland In a day or two ml turned over to the federal authorities. Immediate attention of the city officials of Hdppner Is hereby direct ed to the need for. cross-walks at some of the street intersections. A good example to cite may bs found at the corner of May and Chase streets between the old Eastern hotel property and the Ayres corner. The plank crossing at the corner was torn out last spring when the street improvement work started and all summer the dust in that hole was ankle deep. When it rains a pond the full width of the street forms making the crossing impracti cable without hip boots. People living out that way are getting pretty tired of this condition and they have a right to expect that immediate relief will be given by those in authority. If there is an official in the town whose duty it is to keep cross walks in a passable condition he should get busy at once, or the mayor or street com mittee should get busy at getting him busy. If there is no such offi cial on the city roster one should be created at once. Heppner people are bound to suffer some discomfort the coming winter because of the lack of sidewalks in the burnt district but those in authority should give them a chance to get across the streets without swimming.
