MORROW PUTS EVERY' MEASURE
OVER STRONG
BACCALAUREATE SERMON
The Chrjstian church was well fil
led with an appreciative congrega
tion last Sunday evening to listen to
the baccalaureate sermon delivered
by Mrs. Livingston, minister of U
church, to the graduates of the Hepp
ner high school.

While Multnomah county
gave Johnson a heavy lead
over Wood in early count
returns from outs-id coun
ties show that Wood ' has
been gaining steadily with
chance for overcoming the
Californian's strength. Lat
est reports here showed
Johnson's lead cut to 510
votes.

In common with other counties in
Oregon Morrow voters refused to get
much excited over the primaries last
Friday and a rather light vote was
cast.
Interest centered in the primary
choice for president on the repub
lican ballot the contest being conced
ed in advance to lie between Leonard
Wood and Hiram Johnson. This was
in the vernacular of the turf a "pret
ty race" in this county, In which Can
didate Wood win only by a nose over
the Californian the exact figures be
ing 251 to 253 in favor of the mill
tary man.
Herbert Hoover was third in the
tunning with 98 votes to his credit at
quitting time while Frank O. Lowdcn
came in fourth with 67 tallies and
Miles Polndexter, whisper it gently
trailed in with a scant 20 sccalpe ang.
ling from his belt.
Rhea Luper, a native son of Mor-
row county, who wsb a candidate for
public service commissioner against
H. H. Corey, present incumbent, re
ceived a splendid vote piling up an
even 600 votes to 140 received by'
Mr. Corey.
' Judge R. R. Butler, of The Dalles,
who was a candidate for delegate at
large to the republican nutlonal con
vention, also received a splendid vole
273 voter recording themselves in
I) is favor.
Morrow county voters went on rec
ord as being strongly in favor of all
legislative measures the 4 per cent
toad bond limit measure and all edu
cational BieTes being particular
favorites'.
On the county ticket there was no
contest for any nomination on the re
publican ticket and Charles Sperry,
of lone, candidate fo rthe nomination
for sheriff on the democratic ticket,
ld his ticket by same 400 mllrs. He
was the only democratic aspirant for
a county office.
With It candidates In the field
t'Dm which four were to be selected
(Continued oq page 4)
Count Tolstoy on Chautauqua Program
did musical program rendered by a
selected choir with Mrs. Darbee as
soloist, added much to the interest of
the occasion.
Mrs. Livingston's adress was a
splerdid effort. The lady is a force
ful and earnest speaker and her ad
dress was well suited to the occasion.
Without oratorical flights or fanci
ful word pictures, Mrs. Livingston
held the undivided attention of the
class members and the entire audi
ence during the delivery of her help
ful address. While her address sav
ored less of the regular sermon than
of the friendly .kindly talk to the
youthful graduates, yet she brought
home the vital necessity of the young
man or young woman starting life
on a solid foundation of morality and
religion.
MORROW

SECOND
"Morrow county, next to Multno
mah, is destined to be the wealthiest
county in the state," declares J. W.
Morrow, sometimes of Heppner 'and
sometimes of Portland.' "The day
will come when the John Day irriga
tion project will be realized and when
water Is placed on the land of Mor-
ro wcounty It will become wonderful
ly productive. The John Day project
was considered visionary before the
war because it will cost millions. The
war, however, educated people to
think in large sitms and a project
costing millions does not stagger the
Imagination now as it did four years
ago. With water on the land of Mor
row county it can produce enough
food to feed an enormous popula
tion." Oregonian.

It is with no little satisfaction and pride that the West Coast Chautauqua
management announces the coming of Count Ilya To'.cloy, son and literary heir
of the great Leo Tolstoy. j. ,
Born and reared to well advanced manhood In his native country, and
navlug but recently returned from Rufsia where he made a careful study of
political and economic conditions, no man In America Is so well Informed
Chiis. Thomson and S. A. Paulson,
president and secretary of the Com
mercial club, attended a meeting of
;he Oregon Association of Commor
..'lal Secretaries at Pendleton last
Monday returning Tuesday,
They leport a successful meeting
a large number of the live commer
cial bodies of the state being rep
resented, secretaries being present
from as distant points of Burns and
Coos Bay.
Many subjects of vital interest to
commercial clubs and the communi
ties they represent were discussed
and the meeting was considered a
most profitable one.
Among the subjects receiving at
tcntion were tourists camping
grounds, landing fields for r.irpluoes
and co-operation between the several
towns, and neighborhoods of the
counties in promoting the interest oi
the community at large.
Another matter of general inter
est was that of community advertis
ing, the convention going on record
as being opposed to all hot air, col
ored picture siutl such as was so
much in vogue several years ngo.
Brief statements of fact regarding
the various communities without hot
air and as near the absolute truth as
is humanly possible was strongly
recommended.
The assticiation decided on only
one meeting a year instead of two
as has been the custom, the next
meeting to be held at Portland on a
date not yet fixed.
