ren, All Residents of Morrow
County.
William Barton, a pioneer of Eastern
Oregon, died at bis home in this city
last Sunday morning of heart failure, at
the sge of 74 years.
Mr. Barton was born in Montgomery
county, Indiana, April IJ, 1830, and was
married at Winterset, Iowa, January 39,
1865. In the spring of 1880 he came to
Oregon by way of Ban Francisco, com
ing hy water from the bay city to TJma-
fj'tilla Landing, and from there he went
-J In thn Granil Rnnde fount rv. Two
I ryears later he came with hia family to
Morrow, then Umatilla county, settling
on Blackhorse, six miles northeast of
Heppner, in 1885. He then engaged in
farming until seven years ago, when he
moved to Heppner and took charge of
the poor farm, in -which capacity be
labored until last December.
He leaves a wife and four children, all
of whom have grown to man and wo
manhood. The children are: John and
Verner Barton, Mrs. Minnie Clark and
Mrs. Jack Lane.
Mr. Barton was ever held in high
esteem by his neighbors and acquaint
ances and was known as a kind hus
band and father.
The funeral services were held at the
family home Monday afternoon, Rev. J
V. Crawford of the Christian church,
officiating. After the funeral service
the Masonic order took charge of the
remains and conducted a ritualistic ser
vice at the cemetery, both services be
ing largely attended.
MARKET IS BAD.
Strike Is, Doing Injury to the
Cattle Industry In Oregon.
C. J. Millis, live stock agent for the 0.
R. dc N., tells the Pendleton Tribune
that the cattle situation is rather quiet.
The effects of the strike in Chicago are
being keenly felt by the stock interest
of Oregon and the results are uncertain.
Stockmen are not anxioas to ship to
this uncertain market. Condition
might look very favorable at the time
the cattle were loaded, but perhaps by
the time they reached Chicago the
tables would be turned and there would
be absolutely no market for the stock.
For this reason cattle shipments to the
Chicago market are very light, The
home market is exceptionally good, but
it is not sufficient to take care of the
cattle of the state. Mr. Millis expects
the Chicago situation to alter in a short
time and then hopes to see better prices
for the Oregon stockmen.
Mr. Millis says that the situation in
Crook county, the seat of the present
range wars, is very serious and the ulti
mate outcome is uncertain. The slangh
tering the thousands of head of sheep
will mean a great loss to the individual
owners in addition to a loss to the in
dustry as other owners will not go into
the business as extensively as in other
years when the situation was less slarm
ing.
The recent ruling by the bureau of
animal industry regarding the dipping
of sheep has effected the market to
some extent, but through influence
brought to bear this order has been
modified so that now shipments will be
better.

day morning to run down a party of
burglars who have been operating ia the
north end of tho county, the sheriff not
being able to go himself beciuse of hav
ing to convey trie insane mm, Leffler, to
the asylum at Salem.
Mr. Troedson came to town Monday
evening and gave the information to the
sheriff. It appears that there waa a
party of five persons, one woman and
four men, traveling acrosi the coon try
by team, presumably from The Dalles
to Pendleton, aa they were last heard of
at Echo.
The party camped neir Cecil one
night last week and alter their depar
ture it was learned that the residence of
Mr. Nash had bext entered nd a rifle,
a revolver and some shoei were missing.
The next night the party camped near
Ella, and from the residencs of Johan
Troedson two new suitiiol clothing be
longing to Carl Keilson, tome dresses
belonging to Mrs. Troedson, other wear
ing apparel and a set tf hirnesa belong

Troedson's folk -were not it home at
the time, but the campjri were seen
about the house by othei persona and lt
is presumed that they burglarised the

Messrs. Gurdane and Troedson, whs
started early Tuesday rooming In search
of the burglars, -were provided with a

Plans of tho Prohibitionists.
At a recent meeting ol the Oregon
State Prohibition Alliance tits coarse to
be pursued in dealing with their adver

mined upon and has since been ratified
by the officers and members as a whole.
The plan consists ol elections by
counties in November, Should a county
vote to support prohibition, saloons will
be entirely eliminate! therefrom. If it
go anti-prohibition, such precincts si
support prohibition will be "dry" never
