Selling evidently took every letter
he received as an urgent request that
hn get in the race for Senator. We
know of several that he received from
this Bection that could not be so con
strued.
President Taft's plea to congress on
Tuesday for the proposed new law in
the interest of the employes of inter
state railways ought to convince labor
that he is as much its friend as capi
tal's and that the rights of tnt n aie
dearer to him than those of property.
In order to get the various factions
together. Gov. West has appointed a
commission to act in shaping up the
good roads legislation, and is being
commended for taking such a course.
This problem may yet be worked out
and the ' right kind of a measure
framed op so that the various counties
will be put on an equal basis.
Many friends of Supt. S. E. Notson
are urging him to set into the field
for re-el- ction Sam has made the
best superintendent this conntv has
ever had. He has been faithful in the
performance of the duties of bis office,
and it is only necessary for him to
ronsent to run qgain : the peonla of
the county will see that he is elected,
and that by an almost unanimous vote.
There seems to be a lack of timber
for the various county offues in Mor
row countv. So far thre are three
candidates in the field for sheriff, one
for county clerk, and all the rest are
going bfgsina. Tieasurer Gilliam
will doubtless be a candidate to suc
ceed himself, and will have no oppo
sition. Aside from Judge Patterson,
there seems to be no aspirants for the
Coiintv Judge's office, and he is not
really very enthusiartic. There should
bo some aspirants also for commi8ion
er. There is a chance for many good
men to cet into the fray and the field
is tpan.
Ben Selling is now an announced
candidate for the office of United
States senator to succeed Jonathan
Bcurne, Jr. , and he enters the race
fully confident that he will win. This
naper is willing to support almost any
man in onDosition to Bnurne, but out
s-rnng ureference is for Judg Stephen
A. Lowell, of Pennloton. Jud8 Low
ell is entitled to the eu Dort of East-
em Oregon people and he should get it.
He is the character of man that
should represent this stata and Eist
ern Oregon is entitled to this recogni
tion. He Ehould aho be able to win
over Rourne, and when he is elected.
OrfL'onwill have a reals nator in con
gress l et every republican in Morrow
county line up for udge Lowell.

A Real Jolly Time.
The members of the Ilcbc-kah lodge
of Hrppner enjuyed a novel entertain
ment on Saturday evening in Odd Fel
lows hal 1. A ragamuffin party l ad
been provided and man- of the coi
tomes were funny in the extreme and
developed much ingeunity in their
make up. Prizes were awarded and
Linnie Perry received first prize for
moat comical character, Mrs. Frank
Brown for the rainiest ladies cos
tome, while Lou Zeislcr carried off
the lionois for wearing more lags
limn anv other man in the crowd.
The whole evening's entertainment
was one continual round of merri
ment and it was enjoyed immei.soly.
Following this part of the prouram.
was an elegant, luncheon. The'sow'
u-aa uiven as an evening's amusement
lor the members of the order, and not
to raise money, so the b'iibII teo charg
ed was simply to defray come necess
ary expenses. Fr'tm the standpoint
of lots of fun and a general good
time, it waa a success.
A Sermon to Men.
On last Sundnv afternoon, Evangel
ist Owen preached a sermon to men
only at the M. E Church south. He
had a good congregation of attentive
listeners, and his discourse on the
manhood of Jesus Christ was indeed a
masterful effort, full of eood thought
and logic. The speaker grew elo
quent at times, and was filled to the
brim with his sujbect. The appeal
to the men to accept Christ waa earn
est, an there was response on the
part of several. These union meet
ings have been running for the past
three weeks, and will continue over
Sunday. A large number have been
converted and the interest increases
as the meetings go on. The evangel
ist has greatly impressed the people of
Heppner by bis earnestness and good
will result to the religious side of the
community because of the messages h
has delivered.
Annual Ball a Success.
The annual ball given on last Thurs
day evening by Heppner lodge of Elks,
was a complete success. There was a
large attendance and the capacity of
the club building was fully taxed to
accommodate the crowd. The hall
was beautifully decorated in the col
ors of the order and the committee
in charge of this work certainly did
themselves proud. Music was fur
nished by Prof. Otto's orchestra cf
five pieces and was showered wiih
many compliments. Supper was ser
ved in the hall under the direction of
J. L. Wilkins, of the Palace hotel.
and prepared by his chef, Mr. Kidd.
und was par excellence. The occa
sion waa greatly enjoyed by all pres
ent, and the ball is pronounced one of
the very best the Elks ever have yet
given.

GLEE CLUB SCORES
BIG HIT IN HEPPNER
College Lads Live up to Ex
pectations of Local People.
Greeted bv one of the largest houses
of their entire tour, the Glee and
Mandolin Club of the. Oregon Agri
cultural College entertained in a
superb manner at the Club building
last Friday evening. Notw thstand
ing the fact that the club had had a
strenuous trip, every man was on the
job and acquitted himself in a credit
able manner. From the opening num
ber by tho Mandoliu Club until the
Collegiaua there was not a dull
moment and cveiy number reflected
t-plendid training and careful develop
ment of the young musicians.
The Mandolin Club, under the
direction of Mr. Biewster, displayed
mnch skill in handling the instruments
and furnished their full share in
making the evening one of delight
musically. This feature of the pro
gram was exceptionally interesting
to the local mandolin enthusiasts
and many good points were secured
thereby.
Under the guidance of Prof. Gaskins.
the Glee Club has attained a very high
stan lard. Their program numbers
were all of a very high order anl
were repeatedly encored. The Club at
no time resorted to vaudeville or cheap
stunts of any kind, but responded to
the numerous enccres with humorous
selections which never failed to
please. "Comrades in Arms" was
an excellent number and put the Club
right with the Heppner audience so
far as their ability to sing was con
cerned. In all, the concert waa a grand
success and reflects credit upon the
Institution which the Club represents.
That the college lads find time to
develop their musical talent along
with their studies is worth while,
as was evidenced by the splendid
program given last Friday evening.
The Hepimer audience was especial
ly favored by the singing of Prof.
Gaskins. His appearance here was
the only one on the tour, and it was
only in response to urgent request of
alumni and others that he finally
agreed to pirg. It is the rare good
luck of Hepncer poeple to hear such
talent and the kindness of the singer
was rewarded in the generous ap
plause.
Following the concert, the students
of the Heppner High School held a
reception at I. O. O. F. hall in hon
or of the O. A. C. people and a very
large crowd was present. A very
enjoyable hour was spent in gettirg
acquainted and making "impress
ions," iu which the Heppner young
people proved to be veiy well school
ed. It has been noted before that the
Heppner young people take second
place to none when it comes to enter
taining outsiders and the affair last
Friday evening places more laurels to
their credit.
