HEPPNER. THURSDAY. SEPT. 20. 'H
Local and General.
"Ho Mcooin." Win. Hughes returned
last Thursday from a trip to the Long
Creek and Canyon City country. The
country over there appears prosperous
this season, nlthongh not exempt from
the universnl "hard times." The people
over there are still woudering if the
Ueppner people will repair their end of
the road this fall, that they may ooine iu
to get their supplies. Mr. Hughes as
sured them that be had conndeuce in
our people doiug something before win
ter. It is his opinion that very little
woik will put the mini in condition for
two horses to haul what has been re
quired of four or six heretofore. By go
ing down to Cochran's ranch, three miles
down the river, the Leslie hill is avoid
ed altogether, giviug a good grade to
Wall creek. The Little Wall oreek hill
is in splendid couditiou, and the only
trouble now is with the Heppuer part f
the road. Heppner's splendid school is
attracting the attention of settlers over
there, many of whom would oome over
this winter, if houses could be rented
with good wells of pure water. Allium.'

ter use Chas. Lee. Mr. MoHailev and
Gilmoie. Heppuer has us mind a

gou anii a few neat cottages to rent would
have had the effect of bringing inuuy to
our town. In course of time these peo
ple might build here themselves and be
come permanent residents.
Our Road Petitions. Our road pe.
titions are now in circulation for a road
to connect ns with the Pendleton road
at the Umatilla county line; also the
one for a road between this point and
Hamilton to connect with the Arlington
road at that point, and are meeting with
many signers, despite the robust growls
of certain soreheads, who are opposed to
the advancement of our Republio, be
cause they can't rule it, or beonnsa the
petitions-do not specify the exact routes
they think ought to be followed. Should
the routes be changed, no matter how
much to the inconvenience of others,
they would cry the loudest fortheir con
struction. Of course we will admit that
"self preservation is the first law of na
ture, but we also reoognise that Bel
tishnesB breeds contempt, and that the
majority most always rules, and to those
who are working so energetically to de
feat the interests of the people, we will
say, you are wasting your efforts and
your time, and in the end your labor
will avail nothing, exoept to gain the
ill will of all who are loyal enough to
the land which provides them a liveli
hood, to promote its advancement, and
not be like a dog in the manger, neither
do themselves nor let others do. Long
Creek Eagle.
Back from Lono Cheek. Pres. Thomp
son returned last Thursday from a trip
to the Long Creek country. That sec
tion is suffering from the general com
plaint in Eastern Oregon this year that
of hard times. Mr. Thompson, being an
old settler and a business man of our
town, made some inquiries concerning
the road troin Long (.'reek to Heppuer.
He w as informed that the old road was
a more direct and a better route than any
that could be put through between the
two places. They assured him that all
that was asked of the Heppner folks was
to make a good road of it from town to
the line, and they would look out for the
remainder.' As this information has
come to us a number of times, it is pret
ty thoroughly understood that they
mean business. The question now pro
pounded by those people is, "What will
Heppner do?" We hope to be able to
answer this question in a short time.
Homicide at Burns. Report comes
from Burns of the killing of W. H.
Brown, of that place, by Wm. Page on
the evening of Sept. 8. The particulars.
near as we oould learn, are to tue et-
uble between the two men, ana sev
eral times Brown had exhibited a knife,
with the remark that he would "stiok that
into Bill Page before midnight." About
Bix o'clock they met in the saloon and
and hot words ensued. Page told Brown
to go away, as he, Browu, was too old
a man for him to have any trouble with.
Remonstrances were of no avail, and
Brown knocked him down. Page rose
nnd commenoed shooting. Four or five
shots were fired, either of which would
have proved fatal. Page was placed nn
der arrest and closely guarded. He w'll
have an examination before the justice
of the pence at Burns soon. Canyon
City News.
Some Hard Facts. Cleveland and
Harrison have both given their formal
letters of acceptance to the public, and it
is presumed that the political cranks are
now happy, nnd will proceed to tickle
the great political cayuse in the flank till
he will buck all over Uncle Samuel's do
main. That's right, boys ; talk the ear
off of each other about the great benefits
arising from protection and the curses of
free trade, and Dice versa, ana make ev
ery one believe that yon couldn't even
make grub if it didn't go your way. Go
Tight along till next November and take
vour political medic ne if necessary
without grumbling, and come down to
the cold, bard trutn Hint tne uazette is
the boss. It knows a man in blue over
alls, and don't lose sleen about the big
juirolus in the U. S. treasury, but still

EIGHT MILE MATTERS.
Emm Mile, Or., Sept. 17, 1888
Editor Gazette:
It would seem, since none of the Eight
Mile corresKindcnts send in communi
cations to your worthy paper, that there
would be something, even if it be ever
so ordinary, to write by this time. As
far as anything extraordinary ever bnp
pening on Eight Mile, that is beyond my
comprehension, or that of any other so

The weather, for the past two days,
has been a series of small cyclones part
of the time and a straightforward wind

sweep before it. However, this morn

To the Editor of the Oregonian:
Inclosed please find a pair of specta
cles now of little use even to the original
owner. While recently hunting our
winter's moat near Lard valley, among
the wilds of the beautiful Blue moun
tains lovely solitude we trailed a
hipunink to Ins cave in a log, houow,
of course, and after surrounding him un
til the gathering gloaming reminded mm
that he could again go out on a raid
against his neighbor's pine nut on-hard
without getting sunburned, he surren
dered sine die, and we found the accom
panying spectacles. Maj. Reese says
they were lost ten years ago by J. W.
Cook. They were camping in the moun
tains and hunting the Blue Bucket dig
gings, and on the occasion of Mr. Cook's
42d birthday the boss packer of the out
tit brought in some rich rock, and when
Mr. Cook started to sharply scrutinize it
he found that he hud lost these eighty-caiidle-power
lenses. I have also heard
that he is the original inventorof canned
salmon. Columbia river smelt and deer
dogs, and that he camps on some pictu
resque cliff down the lordly Columbia.
The valuable rook that he was going to
assay was found to be a good article of
Missouri paint, excellent ior ornament
ina barns, fences and siwashes.
Please place these spectacles in a safe
deposit vault and give the combination
to Mr. Cook the next time he walks into
town. No doubt he will be glad to see
them again. Otherwise, otherwise.

appears tliBt while he, together with his
brother and John Huffman, was engaged
in corralling some horses, he, m some
mauuer, fell or was thrown from the
horse he was riding and was pitohed on
his head whiob probubly broke his neck,
killing him instantly. W. H. West aud
John Huffman came into town Tuesday
evening and started back with a oolfiu

A Statement.
As there has been some allusion, din
ing the Cannon arson trial, to my impli
cating Heppner people in the burning of
LexinL'ton. T will suv that it unv such re
marks Were made by me, it was when I
was in a drunken state and nut respon
sible for what 1 said, it has been
mored that I expected, by giving such
evidence in the Cannon case as to convict
him, to have my sentence made shorter
I have had no such encouragement from
anv one, directly or indirectly. I came
back to tell the truth in the matter, and
have done so. There has been no influ
ence brought to bear to cause me to give
anv other than truthful testimony.
will therefore say to the peoplo of Mor
row county that anything of the above
nature which mav lie circulated is false
in every particular. J. H. Bradlev.
AoaiiAVATiNO in the Extreme. Mr
Smith, who was given the contract for
the building of the Long Creek road, has
asked the County court tor protection
against the sheep in that country, whici:
are driven back and forth over the road
filling it with rock and cutting it up gen
erally. It is aggravating in the extreme
and very little progress can lie made on
the roarl, judging from reports, as it runs
through the sheep range of that county
and several bands are located near the
road. But nevertheless we fail to see
wherein the County court has any juris
diction over the public range, in any way
restricting stock from crossing and re-
crossing a public highway or where the
contractor could base his grounds tor in
jury and seek redress by law. The bet
tor way is to form a mutual agreement
with sheep owners or got a dog and herd
the sheep from the road. Pemlleto

Water-works. A. F. Sears, of Port
