HEITXEK, THURSDAY, DEC, 20, ism, j
Before another issue of this
sheet works its passage through
the press, Christmas Day will
have arrived and departed, and in
' advance of the day the Gazette
wishes a Merry Christmas .to all.
The people of the Heppner Hills
have had a prosperous year, and
have much to' be thankful for.
This is the season for doing good,
and the time to feel that liberty,
poverty or prosperity make broth
ers of us all. Let hearts and ideas
be enlarged, and let everybody say
with the poet: ,
No pent-up views contract our powers;
No church, no party, is refused ia ours;
For all grtod causes we canfiml a place
In all mankind, a brotherhood we trace.
COUNTY DIVISION.;
Our neighbor; of the Weston
Leader, in writing of our too-big
county, says:
Umatilla county is largo enough,
and has wealth enough, and popu
lation enough for thfeo counties,
and three good counties its well
Besides which, such division would
be a great financial and traveling
convenience. It ; 1ms . actually
dawned upon the Pendleton Tri
bune, after a ptruggle of many
years, that : the administration of
law in such a large county as Uma
tilla is very expensive to the peo
ple. But of course it sees no way
of bettering the present unsatis
factory state of affairs. It would
be too much to expect the Tribune
, to realize that it costs more to have
three hundred jurors and witnesses
travel an average distance of thirty
miles to reach the county seat, and
to remain there three weeks, than
it would to have the same number
travel ten miles to reach three
county seats, and be obliged to re
main only a week. These may not
be actual figures ; but they serve to
illustrate the point to any one deji,
to conviefion. The same principle
applies to sheriff's foes. But it is
tic2sdiucult a problem for tho Tiib-
une.
It does our stomach good to
read in the dispatches that Postal
Sharp James Iuib returned to New
York from Oregon, "where he suc
ceeded in perfecting a mail system
so that no delay is nowsexperienc
ed in thelik-ibution of mail mat
ter." But when we find that the
Daily Oregonian containing this
dispatch took five days to come
from Portland, and that urgent
business lottere often take even
longer, we feel that Bnj Jim has
. succeeded in perfecting the .most
damnably inefficient service in- the
country.

One recently entered the house of
a policeman and carried off his
watch and money.
During this season there have
been shipped from Pendleton 18'JO
tons or wheat. Had the railroad
been built to Centerville in time,
twice that amount would have left
the depot there.
The cars 'of the Oregon Short
Line are now running into Oregon.

Senator Plumb has introduced a
bill providing that every non-commissioned
officer, private or other
person discharged from the army
during the war of the rebellion,
within two' years from the date of
enlistment on account of disability
incurred in time of military duty,
shall receive a warrant for 100

The thieves who were arrested
and convicted for stealing goods
saved from the Weston fire were
let off with a small fine, - says the
Examiner, while a poor tramp who
stole a few nails from Van Worm
ington's blacksmith shop in Milton
was sentenced to the penitentiary
for three years. If this is justice,
then make the most of it.
Mr. Winans has slaughtered 100
stags in the vabt combined forests
which he rents from Lord Lovat,
The Chisholm, Sir A. Matheson
and other proprietors, being an
average of seven for each day's
shooting. Mr. Winans' preserve
extends to nearly 250,00'J acres,
and his rent is about .17,000 r
year. If one estimates fairly for
extra expenses, it would appear
that each beast which he slays
costs him at least .150. Last
season he killed 186 stags. ;
A horrible accident' occurred
