Will Harrison, Heppner, Oregon. lMd-l Iletter Civic (Spirit NeecUxl. Every once in a while something turns up in llcppiier which forcibly demonstrates the utter lack of co operation among the people of the town in matters regarding the civic welfare. The latest is the small tempest n our community tea pot re garding the removal of the old livery barn from lower to upper Main street. Clearly Mr. Stewart was entirely within his rights in purchasing the eld building and removing it to his propery farther up the street and outside the newly established fir limits. Everything he had except his lot had been wiped out in the lire and he naturally was anxious to re-establish himself in business. Likewise the business men and prop erly owners in the block where the building stood were within their rights in subscribing a sum of money BUlIlclent to pay for the removal of the building. They recognized the fact that the building, as do all buildings of its class, constituted a serious lire menace to their property and that thu character of the bus iness was not the most suitable for a close-in, congested district. No body could blamo them for taking the action they did in protecting their property and beautifying their section of the city. Had the property owners on tho upper street shown the same commendable spirit of progress and civic pride they might also have subscribed a suflielc-nt sum of money to buy Mr. Stewart's lot and give Ii in a chance to buy a more suitable location elsewhere. The fire-swept district on upper Main and Chase streets is all splendid residence property and good residence prop erly is becoming scarce in Heppner and the presence of a livery barn in tho middle of that district Is bound to detract materially from the value of surrounding property. Tho building is there, however, and with Home repairs is probably good for S.r or 40 more years of use fulness ami nothing that can now be aid will change the situation. The Herald, however, cannot retrain tnnii pointing out that lack of co operation and lack of civic prido has resulted in the present situation and to urge thi't as other mutters of a kimllar character come up they will be handled In such n way as will re flect credit on Heppner as a modern and progressiva city.
