Klra Sutton, a former resident of Hepimer, ! taken from the Wpringheld, Oregon, Newi, of January jflHh: "Mrs. Kva Sutton, of Go6 K street died early Tuesday morning at her home.

Stanton drove over from Wal la Walla on Sunday to spend a day here looking after his farm interests, lie states that it will be necessary to do some receding on his Eight Mile farm, and he was arranging to have this done. In the Walla Walla coun try reseeding is necessary on the greater portion of the light lands and conditions in this respect are very similar to what they are here, states Mr. Stanton. He is also of the opin ion that much damage was done to fruit in the Walla Walla valley, es pecially to peaches and cherries. Apples and prune sappcar to have stood the cold snap fairly well and give promise of making good crops, so far as can be ascertained at the present time. Dr. McMurdo, county health officer, was called to Hoardmaii the first of the week, where there are a number of canes of scarlet fever. School there was cloned for a week on this account, but Dr. McMurdo states that the epidemic is under control now and all places have been properly fumigated, so that school was allowed to open again on Wednesdny of this week. He commends the splendid co operation of Justice Goodwin and Constable Gorham in getting the dis ease under control promptly. Dr. and Mrs. Fred E. Farrior and son Freddie departed for Portland today. From that city Mrs. Farrior and Freddie will go on to Oklahoma and Texas where they will upend sev eral months visiting with relatives. Mrs. Farrior'a mother resides at Cor dcllt Oklahoma, and she will spend the greater portion of the time there, expecting to return to Heppner when the real warm weather sets in and it becomes uncomfortable in the south land. Mr. and Mrs. J. 0, Turner were in from their farm on Tuesday, the first trip to town for some time. Th job of reseeding the Turner wheat fields has been going on almost day and night during the spell of good weather, and there is not much left to be done except the. putting in of some spring wheat, which chore will be attended to later. Mr. James Warfield, a young wo man from Morgan, was adjudged in sane the past week, and on Sunday she was taken to the F.a stern Oregon honpital at Pendleton by Sheriff Mc Duffee. Mrs. Warfield has been ill for some time, and it is hoped that the care she will receive at the hos pital will eventually restore her to health again. Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Trimble and daughter Diana returned on Monday from a short visit to Vancouver, Wn., where Mr. Trimble was called on Sat urday to attend a meeting of the di rectors of the Knights of Pythias home.

The fowl pest has caused consterna tion and actual loss in middle west ern 'states and soma states farther east, says Dr. B. T. Simms, head of the veterinary medicine department, but has not appeared in any state as far west as the Rocky mountains ro far as known. Unfounded reports tend to throw a panic into some poul try growers and damage the breeders correspondingly. Dr. L. F. Pelton, state veterinarian of Washington, has wired Dr. Simms that the regulations made by that state do not apply to day-old chicks. The same may be saidof the Califor nia regulation!!, and as far as known, of those of Idaho and other states. Our Washington Letter CARD OF THANKS.

Washington. D. C. February 11. TV Democratic "playboy" Congraa who iv-iu-d the opportunity the other day to move far the abolition of the Tariff Com- mimion are already learning that their tit-, tlf joke doe not meet with the approval of the people at large. During the lant year a ralher extraordinary rhanare baa takn .lace rnTardins the Tariff Hoard, whim tne dtrnocrau auuarentlr had entirely forgot ten wh-n they atarted their movement. The Hoard haa become a court or appeal ior the farmera of the country. Ita lat moat notable dt-cUiott waa made at a time whea the wheat, i-rowera of the country were threatened with a Urn price de-preaaion due to an Influx of Canadian wheat. It then moved under the law and provided an increase of 12l per eent in the import duty, thua protecting the farmera. At dif ferent timea alo the Hoard naa given iia attention to the olitrht of our American chete and butter m altera and our poultry and fir ir raitter. IndWd H haa been made apparent that the Tariff Commiaaion from now on la likely to play an even more Im iwirtant part by means of decisiona aimilar to the wlwat decision for the protection of the American farmera. When a market is mo sensitive that the arrival in the port of New York of a butter steamer from Den mark with a supply hardly sufficient for one day's consumption in New York, op erate!, to depreaa the price of butter 2 cents a pound all over the United Mate, the need of an authoritative Hoard with power to meet such conditions ia self-evident. The blindneaa of democrats who for a petty partisan victory seek to destroy fetich an or ganization is once again made plain to all. The pOrWbHity of effective Farm legi- latioa beiaa enacted during; the remain inf days of the prnnttt aet"a ta admittedly growing u it dubiou. rreidnt 'olidge in appointing the Agricultural tym mis sion to make a iurvey and eufrjtrst rrnwlwa particularly impreered on the Commtwion hia eWirtr for quack action. Hi ioH ton ia uncKuDtr'-d. but the herir.g whtrh op ened MoMiay, rVbruary 2. have already de veloped a d-cidd di virion of opinion aa to the proper remdte, in fact, a general eon fusion among the agricultural expert which doen not incrt-ane the chance of immediate effective action along the lines which the I resident d-irn. Tht-re are aliso substantial giuund for belief that the in-unft-nt m-iii liera of 0ngrea nursing a grievance, b-THUne the farmera failed to rally to 'he third party atndard, are ac tively "i-Mpiiiir" the legi-lation with the idem of tb') punishing the farmem. Thin i aa un fortunate situation, but happily the delay cannjt p-rint beyond the open ing of the next fwion of Congreaa for in that body the president will have a work ing majority refcponttive to hw d-ires. Attain fortunately the President's deter mination to Aecure the enactment of such a program can never be weakened by rea iton of dej-ty. Uncle Sim Hotted his trade balance sheet for Wli m i'h about one billion on the right side of the ledger. It will be recalled during the laa campaign that the third party speaker and the free trade Demo crat pmiKted universal disaster as a re sult of the existing tariff law. They an nounced from the Btump that our exports would dwindle to naufht, but the Depart ment of Commerce in figures just made public state that the ex-wtrt reached the amazitig total of $4,590,1 4,73, while the imports amounted to t2,f10,5f2..ri6i. The total for 1!23 was $4,167,41:j.0w0 and im ports for that year were valued at $3,1'J2,-Ofif-,968. .So it will be seen that import have decreat-ed while our exports have trained in v;iluc Our largest foreign pur chaser iav-t year waa Great Britaia who Uk t'.-"J..A.Ui while import f rfn that c-rtii.tr amounted to only 113. 4" Our eiorta to Ormany were valued at 1 UttM and importa totaled 11.257.-, VTxnrm look 2l,fT2, while we unport-d fro m that country f i47,6a.72. ; The action of Senator Butler of Maaa chu etta in amendir.g the pw-tal bill so as to provide low mailing rate for relirious. fraternal, labor, educational and similar pui.lica' too laaued by organixationa devot ed to the aeveral lines of activity has met with univf-n-ai approval. Senator hutler in introduenig this am endment felt that libcrai recognition ma tar aa po-ible should be given to new-papers iiid anags-iiium of this character. The prin ciple which exempt churrh, fraternal and schofil property fr.m taxation, Senator But ler lieh-vea, should be extended to theae publicationa. 1 he Senate by a vote of 51 to 2 sustained his suggestion. It waa a graceful act, yet without this move on bbs part it la plain that a great injustice would have been done to a large body of our people, for aa was said on the floor of the Senate: Thee organizations represent Intererta that lie at the very foundation of oar civil iwition, of our progress and development ax a people. They are engaged in work that ia not conducted for private profit, but that ia pursued in the interests of hu manity, and ir the fnterwt of a higher civiliiation. They do not represent gain ful occupation. TVy represent charity. They represent beoevoience. Although the Senate Bill ha been he'd ap in the House due to a parliamentary technicality there I no doubt if enacu-d it will contain the Butler amendment. The extra ftewion of Congress called by President Coolidge for March 4 ia only for the purpose of considering the confirmation of appointments of the new administration. A similar session Is held at the beginoing of each new administration.
