The first gun o( Morrow county cam paign was fired at Lexington Monday evening by the Republicans. The Ar tisan hafl was crowded with an en thusiastic throng of ladies and gentlemen who gave the speakers the very best of attention. The meeting was called to order by E. L.

Mr. Fhelps gave some good reasons, in our way of reasoning, why he should be favored for the position of district attorney. First because Morrow county is clearily entitled to the office at this time, and secondly be cause Mr. Phelps is in a position to de vote more time to the duties of the office than his opponent. The next to take the stand was County Clerk Vawter Crawford, who is loo well known to need any comments. Mr. wlord spoke very briefly, promising a con tin nation of his past record of which all are familiar. Sheriff Bhutt followed Mr. Crawford. In a short and timely talk Mr. Shutt outlined bis policy by reiterating hie promiies of t o years ago. These prom ises the voters of Morrow county know he has fully carried out consciecioualy, fearlessly and without hiss. His record for law and order as well as that of tax collector is a creditable one and speaks volumes for his energy and efficiency. W. 8. Connor the nominee tor assess or, promised his best efforts in equit able assessments. Mr. Connor is thoro ughly capable and will be a safe man for the position. . Jay Merrill, for school superinten dent gave a good talk along educational lines, leaving a fovorable impression upon his audience. M. Lichtenthc), candidate for treas ure, mads a very pertinent speech, stating the finincial conditions of the county in concise manner. Every body knows that Mat has been a careful and efficient officer and he is assured a big vote. After a brief speech by Chairman Freeland in behalf of candidates who were unavoidably absent at this meet- 0 11 MB summer afternoon being tempered by gentle Dreeze freighted aith the aroma of pine trees and seasoned with the salt sea air. The scenery includes much that is beautiful. Leaving Portland on one of the Oregon Ran 1 road & Naviga tion Company's palatial river steamers, (the T. J. Potter being queen of the riyer flyers) the excursionist is carried through its harbor where fly the flags of many nations. The twelve miles on the Williamette river are quickly made, and, after saluting the government light house, making the junction of the two rivers, the boat swings into the Colum bia for the trip down stream. The morn ing is clear (generally so from Jane un til September), and magnificent and in spiring sight meets the eye as the sweep around the bend is made five snow capped peaks, Mount Hood, Mount Adams, Mount Saint Helen, Mount Rainier and Mount Jefferson, looming into view a sight' worth traveling thousands of miles to see. On down the picturesque river, paat villages, saw mills, Billing fleets, salmon canneries, perpendicular basaltic bluffs, and pretty side-hill farms, the boat pursues its way. ibe majestic sweep of the nver is awe inspiring. Gradually the shores grow farther apart and, scarcely realizing that the five hours have been consumed in making the trip, the boat steams alongside the wharf at Astoria. One hour from Astoria, through the famous fishing waters of the Columbia, past scores of salmon traps and nets and as many white-winged fish boats, lands the passenger at Ilwaco, on Baker's Bay, where connections for beach points is made with trains of the Ilwaco Railway A Navigation Company, whose cars stand on the wharf awaiting the steamer, North Beach where the surf bathing is unexcelled, at low tide is from 200 to 400 feet wide, twenty-three miles long and so Move to Improve and Beau lify Heppner Cemetery BRILLIANT PIANO RECITAL Eight Mile Correspondent Re ports Crops In Good Con dition, But Weather Little Cool for Rapid Growth. Geo. Conser has took the initiave in a move to provide a water system for the Heppner cemetery, to improve and beautify it in many ways. Mr. Conser'a plan, which seems to be the better oner is to build a reservoir Into which water can be pumped from the power plant at rate of about 14 cent per 1000 gallons, which is considered cheaper than taking it from Balm Fork, and from that source it is very probable the supply would be inadequate. The reservoir, pipe, other material and work will necessitate an expenditure of about f 1200. Of this amount $760 has already been subscribed, leaving a balance of between $400 and 500 yet to be raised in 'order that the work may proceed. It is earnestly requested that all who are interested in the beautify ing and improving of the cemetery will subscribe as liberally as they deem it ustifyable towards the cemetery fund that the work can be commenced at once. Contributions for this purpose will be received at the bank by Mr. Conser, who will fully explain the plans and contemplated improvements. Piano Recital. The piano recital, given by Mrs. Beatrice Dierke in Roberts' opera house Friday evening last, was fairly well at tended and was a rare musical treat for those present. Mrs. Dierke is a pianist of extraordinary ability and the grace and ease with which she manipulated the keys won for her the admiration of ber entire audience. Her selections were well taken, seeming to strike a popular cord with ber hearers. Should Mrs. Dierke again appear in Heppner it is safe- to predict that she would be greeted by an 'overflowing house. . ing, tion. J. 1 .

So nicely and lairly did he handle his subject that the opposing party could find no room for criticism. No matter to what party you belong bis absolute fairness and sound reasoning is a source of pleasure to his hearers. A few timely remarks by Mayor 8. E. Notsn of Lexington concluded the speech making, and after a patriotic selection by the Lexington band the congregation was dismissed. The meeting, at Heppner Tuesday evening was a very largely attended, Rolerla' hall being comfortably seated with an attentive audience, although the evening was rather disagreeable on account of the downpour of rain. The meeting was called to order by Chairman Freeland and speech making was in the same order as at the Lex lug- is unknown and no venemous snakes or insects are found.

W. Saling's children have the hooping cough. Cattle have about all been sent to the mountains to summer range. . Crops of all kindsare growing slowly on account of the continued cold weather. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Jones left Satur day for the Irrigon country 'on a visit for few days. ; Geo. J. Curren republican candidate for county judge was interviewing Eight Mile voters Thursday. Chas. Houston, got a bad lick from a post sledge Friday, that rendered him unconscious for a time. W. W. Brannan, the biggest fheep owner on upper Eight Mile has taken his sheep to the mountains for summer range. A good warm rain would come in handy about now, it would help plow ing and a few other things not mentioned in the political platform. C. E. Jones has planted five acres In bis famous Mercer corn. It strikes us bat the weather is a little bit cool for corn to jerminate, but C. E. says tbia corn would grow in Alaska. Some fields of spring grain have been damaged by wire worms, ' a rain and warm weather is the remedy. Just try it and see, better try it on your neighbors field though first, it might not be just the right treatment for yours. C. E. Jones' children have the whoop ing cough. This seems to be quite a fad In this part of the country, and. there is being lots of good grub wasted. May i6, 1904. Beat Cough Madlotn for Children. When you buy a cough medicine for small children you want one In which you can place Implicit confidence. You want one that not only relieves but cures. You want one that is unquestion ably harmless. You want one that is pleasant to take. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy meets all of these condition. There Is nothing so good for the coughs and colds incident to childhood. It is also a certain preventive and cure for croup, and there is no danger whatever from whooping cough when it la given. It has been used in many epidemics of that disease with perfect success.
