STEAM ROLLERS.
With Mrs. Pankhurstout of jail
again; with Roosevelt acquitted
of the charge of drunkenness;
with the passage of the seven
teenth amendment to the consti
tution; the hopeless prospect of a
scrap with Japan; with Jtkj
Johnson in the pen, theColumljia
river flood receding, and a reas
onably good prospect for the com
ing harvest, what is the poor
pencil pusher to do for something
to write about? No excitement.
Even baseball cannot arouse any
special interest in the average
citizen. Exerything seems tame
and commonplace. For the last
week only one subject has suc
ceeded in creating a ripple upon
the placid surface of the quies
cent desuetude that seems to have
taken possession of the entire
mass of humanity, and that is
the Steam Roller. Of course,
this refers to the real thing, and
not to a figure of speech applied
to certain methods sometimes
employed to get rid of a trouble
some opponent. .
It is charged that some parties!
are decidedly m favor of steam
Irollers. And that they are so
determined upon indulging the
luxury derived from the posses
sion, operation and attainments
of the steam roller as to have de
cided to resort to steam roller
methods in order to obtain one.
Now, we don't know whethei
this charge is well founded or
not. We are loath to accept it in
its entirety, altho there is doubt
less some ground for the accusa
tion. However, we take no sides
to the controversy at the present,
but merely state the facts, and
would gladly do what we can to
bring about a peaceable solution
of the difficulty, that there be no
broken bones or blood shed.
If both parties to the contro
versy will get together, not for a
scrap, but for a friendly discus
sion of the proposition upon its
merits, we opine they will find
that they all want the same
things when they come to fully
understand each other.
TOOT YOUR HORN.
The coming county fair will
call for music adapted to the oc
casion. Time was when a fife
and drum corps filled every re
quirement in such cases, but that!
time is past. The public ear has .
been attuned to more melodious j
strains, and nothing short of a '
brass band with drum accompan-1
iments will satisfy the cultured,
taste of the adult citizen, or fill
Young America with the proper
amount of enthusiasm of approved
quality. In the dim and distant.

past even before the flood
Heppner boasted a Symphony
band that was the pride of the
city and a joy to all visitors. The
great catastrophe of June 14, 1903,
wiped it out of existence, and tho
some ieeble attempts have been
made since then to assemble a
cornet band that would identify
itself with the city as one of its
permanent institutions, such at
tempts have been abortive from
the lack of competent leadership,
and the moral and financial back
ing of the substantial business
and professional people of the
town.
There is the nucleus of a good
band already here. It would be
necessary to buy a few more in
struments perhaps, to bring it up
to the proper standard of respec
tability, but if the good people of
Heppner can focus their minds
upon the proposition long enough
to appreciate its benefits to the
town, this difficulty could be eas
ily overcome. It seems to us that
the time is ripe for a movement
of this kind ar.d wre hope to see
some of our musical folk take it
up.
With the organization of the
Morrow County Fair, the organi
zation of a county pioneers' asso
ciation ought to be considered.
The time is coming when every
fact relating to early settlement
and history of the county will be
of great value. Unless some spe
cial effort is made to collect and
preserve them, many incidents
connected with the first settle
ment and subsequent develop
ment of the country will be for
ever lost. The coming together
of the people at the county fair
will be an opportune time for the
pioneers' meeting. We shall
hope to see this matter taken up
by a goodly number of those di
rectly interested in the move
ment who, -realizing its import
ance, will carry it forward to
completion.
