SUBSCRIPTION RATES: Three Months $ .50 (One Year $1.S0 Six Months .78 Single Copies .05 OFFICIAL PAPER FOR MORROW COUNTY. Thursday, January 18, 1917. The Fossil Journal, that pioneer newspaper of Wheeler county, of which Jas. S. Stewart is the able editor and proprie tor, began the new year by coming out as an all-home printed edition. The new style adopted by the paper is pleasing in make-up and is highly readable throughout. Mr. Stewart is to be complimented upon this new departure. t-t Hogs, wool and sheep continue to rise in price. Last Aveek the Chicago wheat market reached the two-dollar point. Local producers well may smile when noting these facts. On the other hand, commodities are likewise continuing their areial flight. The consumer is getting dizzy in his attempt to keep the pace. t-t Press reports state that Ben. W. Olcott is being boomed for governor. It would be a shame to spoil a perfectly good secretary of state in such a manner as this. Morrow county again has claim to fame. Johnnie Becket the greatest captain that ever lead a football team onto any Northwest gridiron, is a native Morrow county boy. He cap tained the University, of Oregon eleven this year and his team recently defeated the much heralded University of Pennsyl vania team at Pasadena. The score was U to 0. This is Beck et 's last year at Oregon. He is a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. V. Becket, who now reside in Portland. t-t WHY NOT A SUNDAY MAIL CLERK? ' People living in the towns along the Heppner branch of the 0. W. R. & N. Co. have often asked themselves and their neigh- bors why they cannot have the same excellent mail service on Sunday as is given every other day in the week. The reason for this can be explained in the fact that on Sunday, accord ing to the present schedule of the mail sen-ice, the clerk is given a day off. How nice it would be if we could mail, a letter on Sunday addressed to any point on the branch and rest with the calm assurance that it would reach its destination sometime during the same day. At the present time mail going from Heppner to any point on the branch line, if on Sunday, must travel to a certain point down on the main line, where it is sorted and re turned to the original destination. A little concerted action on this matter presented to the .postofflce department would probably get the desired results. Now is a good time for action. THE NATIONAL FOREIGN TRADE CONVENTION AT PITTSBURG. During the last of this month one of the most important conventions in the history of the nation will be held at Pitts burg, Pa. This is the National Foreign Trade Convention which will be held on January 25-27. It will be attended by the most influential manufactures and exporters of the Uunited States to consider means for the protection and extension of this country's foreign commerce during and after the close of the European War. It is gratifying to note that a special train will carry wide awake business men from this section of the North Pacific Coast. The Northwest has an interest in the convention and the results to be obtained, that is on par with any other section of the country, and in some respects even greater. At this convention, among other things to be discussed will be that of "The Need of a National Foreign Trade Policy." Oregon is fortunate in having a member on the National For eign Trade Council. He is Theo. B. Wilcox, president of the Portland Flouring Mills. 35.00 (Continued from page 1) S. Lowry, Circuit Court 22.00 N. D. Beavert, Circuit Court 22.00 J. M.
