CoCNTBT Editors. This heading is a
brief description of one of the heaviest
taxed specimens of the human race.
There are many of the duties, privileges
and pleasures of the' position of which
anyone oould envy the "country editor'
And yet it is a life of servitude and iu
gratitude lie hag to read his papers
and write up "copy" at night, when he
should lay aside the work and troubles
of life to enjoy the sooiety of bis family,
if he has oue, which he too-frequent-ly
has no time to net fairly acquainted
with. Iu the day he sticks type, makes
np forms, folds papers, makes up the
mails, runs errands, collects bills (if he
oau), saws wood, works in the garden,
appeases the wrath of unreasonable peo
ple who take bis sheet, agitates ever)
enterprise for building up the town,
helps to pay the minister, and is sup
posed to attend political caucuses and to
do his darndest towards making great
politicians out of the poorest imaginable
material, but this ranch don' ' .eel itself
oalled to undertake any aotive part iu
politics. However, he is the first man
negleoted, and usually the worst abused
man in the ooimnuuity. He is expected
to do gratuitously teu times ns runeh
work for the public, for his political par
ty, for the church, for society, for all
charitable objects, as any person in the
village. He is a sort of a pack-borse in
the community. The privileges of the
position are the opportunities to go free,
or as a deau-nead, to allsuos, theaters,
benefits, etc., after doing gratuitously
ten timeB as much work aud advertising
for them as would pay for the tickets.
But the real zest a "country editor" has,
is raining fire and brimstone down on
the head of all political or personal en
emies, and all miserly and niggardly
souls who live oft soeiety by the various
devices which rascality can invent, whioh
somewhat compensates for the servitude
and exactions required of him. It might
be said that they sometimes use their
sheets too freely in raking their enemies,
but they are usually fuir sort of men,
and live to a good old age, preserved, it
is supposed, by the determination to live
until their last enemy is made to bite
the dust. They are usually tough old
roosters, physically, Buyhow.
Tbials and Tribulations. The nice
pastoral shepherd of old had nothing to
do but toot a bag pipe and rest indo
lently on his crook in the shade. It's
different, altogether different, with oiu
Wue mouutaiu herders and tenders.
Their mountain life is not particularly
rosy. Between the shotguns of the set
tlers and the growling of neighboring
Herders, there s an excitement that re
lieves all the dullness and keeps them iu
hot water all the time. An occasional
notice is given to the mutton monarchs
like the following, which was handed us
this week by a camp-tender who found
it posted up on a tree on Indian creek,
It was dated September 25, 1888, aud
reads as follows: "respct onse Clnimes

Can't Help You. Times are pretty
hard everywhere this year, so practice
economy and do your best in the way of
work and management. No political
party can help vou out ol dent to anv
material extent. Every man's destiny it
ulmost wholly in his own hands. inert
are only two ways or getting out ot a
mortgage debt to let the sheriff sell yom
property or keep nun trom doing so ly
paying off the mortgage yourself. Tin
laws can't be changed back and forth to
favor the man who makes mistakes oi
has bad luck. He must sink or swin
under the conditions which alike sur
round himself and his neighbors.
Will Stay. Mr. G. V. Foor, the pho
tographer, has concluded to locate per
manently in Heppner. Mr. C. M. Mal

very bad here for photo-work, but he hat

when he gets into his new quarters, wil.
he prepared to do better work than ever
It tun be truly said that Mr. Foor is tht
only photographer that has ever made t
success of producing photos from th
negatives here. We hope that Mr. Fooi
will still continue to receive a liberal
patronage in bis line.
