McDuffee Wins Sheriff Offic3 Com
inissionershin Yet in
Doubt
A report received at the Herald
office at 10:00 v.. m. Wednesday
from Democratic State Headquar
ters at PorUand says: "Twenty
per cent of vote in the state is now
in with Chamberlain 630 votes
behind."
Sufficient reivrns from the coun
try at large were received before mid
night to show that a republic n land
slide hit the eastern section of the
country, and Harding's clcctwi was
conceded at an early hour.
The much talked ot brsaking away
from party lines failed to materialize
and voters generally seemed to vote
straight tickets. The women's vote
also failed to make any material
change in general results.
As we go to press Wednesday
morning but few returns from the
county have been received, but the
election of George McDuffee, repub
lican, for sheriff is conceded. '
The senatorial contest in Oregon ia
close according to latest reports, the
odds rather favoring Stanfield, rep.
As the Herald goes to press Wed
nesday morning but few returns from
other points in, Morrow county have
been received, but Heppner precincts
indicate that Stanfield has carried
the county by a substantial majority.
Four precincts In Heppner give
McDuffee, for sheriff, 454, against
187 for Sperry, democrat. McDuffee
carried Cecil precinct, ... and , Sperry
carried lone, his home precinct, by
11 votes.
In the four Heppner precincts Dav
idson, republican, received 319 votes
for county commissioner, r.r.d Pad
berg, independent and present Incum
bent, received 280.
MAXY HUNTERS IX
MOUNTAINS
THK
Many Heppner sportsmen are In
(he mountains hunting the elusive
deer, and, scalar as the Herald man
knows, with very poor success. A
nice big hunk of Juicy venison would
change our viewpoint very materially
no doubt, and it would also be the
foundation for one of the finest hunt
ing stories ever written, and if YOU
want to be the hero of. such a story
Just drop a hunk of venison In the
right spot and we will do the rest.
Doc McMurdo is In the mountains
as- this is written and we have hope
of better things, for, be It known,
whenever Doc gets a deer the Herald
family has meat for dinner. No oth
er successful hunter should allow this
statement to disturb him, however,
for even If Doc should beat you to It
remember that two hunks of venison
ate always better than one hunk, and
we can write as many fine hunting
stories as there are hunks.
Now i'i-t It's over l?'.'s all whoop
'or up for good prices for wheel and
wool. That counts.

Most KlalMirate Kiiter
taiiiiiient Davis,, popularly known as the mas
ter magician, is to unloose his bag of
tricks before local people here on the
evening of Tuesday, November 9, at
the Star theater. Davis is the e
( , t , - ,
ituon proving the rulo that there Is
nothing new In magje. There Is more
new stuff In the Davis program than
the usual whole evening given by the
ordinary magician. What Davis does
Is wizardry, and his manner of doing
It is an artistry of the highest type.
Ther is one strange thing after an
other and fun all the tl mo. Ynn'lt
laugh at his wit and humor as well as
his wonderful magical feats. You'll
want to watch him closely, for when
you think he has finished a feat In
magic and It would be the end with
the average magician he Is Just get
ting to the Interesting part; in fact
nearly all of his trlckB have three
points' to them Instead of one.
Davis performs twice as many feats
as the average magirlan. There Is mf
delay with useless "patter" and his
talk Is as Interesting r.s what he does.
With a splendid stage wttlng, lots of
paraphernalia and an excellent assist
ant, the entertainment runs smoothly
and without waits. You will say he
Is the cleverest magirlan you have
ever seen, and you will enjoy his pro
gram from beginning to end. There
is not a dull minute in It.

Last Saturday evening was some
thing of a red letter occasion for

attention In some home In the city.
The time honored festival of Hallow

festive occasions.
Tho seniors, class of '21, were de
lightfully entertained at the homo of
Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Humphries, whoso
son, Roland, is a member of the class.
The beautiful home was made partic
ularly attractive for tho offulr and
after a most pleasant evening a mid
night lunh was served.
Mr. a.-.', Mrs. Vawter Crawford
threw their home open to the Junior
class the same evening, and all who
were present report a splendid time.
The sophomores were entertained
at ihe home of Mr. and Mrs. E. It.
Huston, and every loyal "soph"
maintains that that was about Ihe
only real parly given In Heppner.
There were games and other enter
tainment galore, ami the refrei.h
