Boiling criminals to death was once a legal mode of execution in England for counterfeiting and lat er for committing murder by poi soning. An act of parliament pass ed in 1531 provided that convicted poisoners should le boiled to death, though this form of punishment was not applied to any other class of murders. The law "was in force about fifteen years, and under it three persons were boiled to death, one a cook who put poison in food intended for his parish poor and another a maid who poisoned her mistress. A Dublin paper of Feb. 28, 1703, said that "twelve coiners (counterfeiters) were seized in the act of coining and, having been tried and found guilty, were four hours afterward boiled" in oil, three of them women."

REDFRONT Livery &Feed Stables MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER THURSDAY, April, 16, - - 1914, WITHVCOMBE FOR GOVERNOR. rtr .Tames Withycombe, Director of the Oregon Agricultural College and Experiment Station, Is in the race for the Governorship, and de serves the loyal support of every far mer and stock raiser in the "web foot" State. Dr. Withycombe has always been loyal to the sheep and irnat interests of Oregon and has fought their battles on the tariff, the range and every other big question in which they were vitally interested. He was secretary of the Pacific Northwest Sheep Breeders' Associa tion for a number of years and for two years president of the North west Sheep Breeders' Association, in cluding the States of Oregon, Wash ington, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, and Utah. For forty- three years he has been a resident of Oregon, and during sixteen years, of that time has been director of the Oregon Experi ment Station. Dr. Withycombe is one of Oregon's strongest men and has been identified with every movement for the upbuilding of ag ricultural and livestock raising in that state. His sound views on great national issues, and especially those in which the wool industry is interested, are known to every reader in the Northwest. He is a man of strong character and force, and no one knows better the needs of the great state of Oregon. Every wool grower and goat raiser should take off his coat and work for Dr. James mi. JP.

All of the large New York and Washington newspapers devoted much space to Representative Sinnott's brilliant and eloquent speech in the house on March 27, against the repeal of the provision In the Panama canal act providing for free tolls for American coast wise ships. Mr. Sinnott was not only warmly commended for his splendid oratorical effort but for reasoning in handling this weighty subject. Out here in Oregon we read his speech and the flattering comment following it in the big papers of the east with a thrill of pride that "Nick" Sinnott is OUR congress man the representative of the second congressional district of Oregon. Yes, Mr. Sinnott is more than our congressman, for the en tire state and west is proud to claim him because of the remarkable record he has made during his first year in the national house. The Dalles Chronicle. Placing the House. Don't put the house too close to the main road. Ilave it at least 100 feet away. When you get it too close dust cornea into the house, and you sacrifice the privacy of the home to a certain extent. Houses too close to the road do not look well and are not as valuable. No tice this next time you drive to town. Provide a windbreak and trees for shade. Ilave the main highway in view fr,om certain win dows in the house. Progressive Farmer. Willis Stewart Prop.

Heppner, one of the best lighted cities in the Inland Empire. Primary election comes on the 15th of next month. Have you registered? "In unity there is strength," and we must have united support If Heppner would have a strong base ball team. Swat the fly, and swat him early. A few flies swatted now means about 140,000 less to swat later in the season. Easter Sunday was observed In an appropriate manner in the Heppner churches. The display of flowers and Easter millinery was much in evidence hut there was also an air of religious sanctity pervading the sanctuary and the real significance of the occasion was not overlooked. According to report from Wash ington, D. C. published in The Eve ning Telegram of Wednesday last, a political combination has been per fected between Chamberlain, WeBt and Bourne. This was brought about during the recent visit of Gov. West to Washington. According to this story West is to be an lndepend ent candidate for governor should C. J. Smith fall of nomination, and the battle cry Is to be state-wide prohibition. The amusing part of the report, however, is the statement TvofCorsefs New Warner's Corsets No. 520 for stout figures, with a medium bust, made of coutil. This corset has a double skirt from waist line down, which is very good for women with big hips. Four hose supporters, sizes 18 to .3(3, Price $1.50 Also five other numbers suitable for any figure, ranging in price from $1.00 to $3.50. Also "Warner's celebrated .

THOMSON BROS. that Senator Chamberlain has con sented to espouse the cause of the "drys", as this is his only hope or riefeatine K. A. Booth. What a joke! George E. Chamberlain a prohibitionist! We have long known that George was trying to put tne saloons out of business but never suspicioned that he would consent to go out and talk against them. It must be that the whole story origina ted in the fertile brain of an energet ic reporter. The installing of the new linotype in the' Gazette-Times olllce this week has been the occasion of much in terest on the part of the Heppner citizens. The machine is here, friends, and we are now operating it and want you to come in and see it work; it is certainly a marvel of me chanical construction and porfection and places us in position to give you a better paper than ever. In fact we will not take a back seat for any country print shop in the Northwest. A Drink and Fight. The Albanians used to practice a form of dueling well nigh as fatal as that advocated by Sir Charles Napier. Sir, Richard Burton, who once commanded a corps of bashi bazouks, writes that "the Albanian contingent, who generally fight when they are drunk, had a peculiar style of monomachy. The princi pals, attended by their seconds and by all their friends, stood close op posite, each holding a cocked pistol in his right hand and a glass of raki or spirits of wine in his left. The first to drain his draught had the right to fire, and generally blaz ed away with fatal effect. It would have been useless to discourage this practice, but I insisted on fair play." London Chronicle. General and Admirals. The generals in chief of the army have been: Washington; Arthur St. Clair, March, 1701, to March, 1792; James Wilkinson, 1800 to 1812; Henry Dearborn, 1812 to 1815; Jacob Brown, 1821 to 1828; Alex ander Macomb, 1828 to 1841; Win field Scott, 18-11 to 1861; George B.

Por.tcr, Out. 17, 1870; George Dewey, March 3, 1899. The last three are the only naval officers to hold the rank of admiral. Maga zine of American History. Ons Dante Missed. We came to a great lako of mol ten lead. On the banks stood thou sands of hydroplanes. Every sixty seconds a cringing shado was plod ded into the seat of a hydroplane and compelled to shoot high into the air. When the machine had reached an elevation of 1,000 feet the hydroplane would wobble until it tossed the screaming occupant out, and ho would fall into the lake below. "What docs this mean?" we asked. "This is where we punish the men who rocked tho boats when they were on earth," replied his satanio majesty.
