THURSDAY, MAR 10. 1904.
The experts who examined the
books of the late Treasurer Martin
of Grant county, find that he was
short in his accounts $3041.38. It
is understood that Martin leaves
property valued at about $3000,
which will leave only a email bal
ance to be made good by Martin's
bondsmen.
Democrats Meet.
The democrat io county committee
meeting, in the parlors of the TaUce
hotel yeste day afternoon, vti well at
tended and a very enthusiastic gather
ing. lion. Henry Rlackman, chairman
of the committee, presided and L. L j
Matlock records I the minute.
Representation bawd on the vote
given Governor Chamberl in in 190a.
which basia entitles the party to 5S
delegates. The time set for holding the
primaries was March 36, and the county ,
convention .-pril j. (
It is to be noped that the new
irrigation scheme at Castle Rock,
by Dalles capitalists, will be a
success. If it is it means the pro
viding of homes for a large number
of fami.ies, increased land values
and more taxable property for
Morrow county at a much earlier
date than to wait for reclama
tion by the government. While
any system that may be built by
the government will be one of the
best cla?8 it will necessarily take
a long time to construct, or in the
first place to get ready to construct
it. A few private enterprises will
only tend to hasten the govern
ment along with the good work.

wish of the president to become his
running mate, but it was with the
unders anding tnat ex-governor
Franklin Murphy of New Jersey,
be given the chairmanship of the
national committee and Charles
L. Henry, of Indiana be named as
vice-chairman. These were the
the only conditions order which
Senator Fairbaok could be induced
to accpt the vice residential
nomination The combination is
a strong one and prty leaders
think there is no question but what
it will stand the ball ti test at
the national convention.

BRUCE HAINES, Prop

There is no more opportune
time than the i resent for the
organization of a commercial body
at Heppner Morrow county re
sources should be advertised at the
St. Louis World's fair, and if this
is pr perly done the work should
be commenced at once. A commer
cial organization is the proper
body to take the matter up and
push i: along. If it is left for each
individal to do his part as best he
may there will be nothing done.
An individual can't accomplish
what an organized body can. The
Lewis and Clark fair commission
promises to see that any advertis
ing matter p.epared by ny county
shall be distributed to the best
advantage at the St. Louis fair.
A commercial organization could
handle this matter very beneficially
to our town and county. Not only
this but there are numerous ways
in which such a body could advance
the interests of the community
Acting for citizens at large, it can
accomplish what would be im-
jiosnible with individual efforts
All important local questions can be
advanced, an 1 it can ever be on the
alert to look after the interests of
the town. The improvements and
progress in many of the the cities
of the northwest have b-en due in
a great measure to the activity of
their commercial bodies. It ap
plies as well to the smaller as to
the larger cities. Morrow county
has a very bright future, no county
in Oregon has more promising
prospects. Irrigation and the
coal mining industry combined
with her other resources are des
tined to make Morrow one of the
foremost counties of the state.
On U Tatricks Day, free souvenirs at
