i-4 THE GAZETTE. HEPPNER, THURSDAY, JAN. 3, ') rf SttfO(V TROUBLE. The United States has for some been casting a fatherly glanoe cow aml.thei in the direction of the Samonn . islands, and now that tbs Qerman confederatioi, insists on planting their flag un the Sb moan territory, the government eeud war vessels to protest against the en croachment of our European neighbor A dispatoh of reeent date says: "It is stated that the administration has deoided to take a firmer stand ii Samoa. The expeditions work which it being done ou the Vandalia and the Mo hican at the Maryland navy yard iB foi the purpose of sending them, at the ear liest possible moment, to Apia. It is al so positively doolared that the D lphin, now on her way arouud the world, hue orders to stop at Apia, and that a ciphei dispatoh was sent to her oomtnandingof fioer at Aoapitlco, instructing him to go to Samoa without delay. The Adams rind and Nipaio are already there, and upon the arrival of the Vandalia and the Mohioan the government will have a fleet of live vessels in Samoa. Should an emergen cy arise requiring more force, the Tren ton, one of the best vessels in our ser vice, now at Panama, oould also be dis putohod there. The Samnans are a group of nine islands, with some islets, in the Pacific ocean, lying north of the Friendly islands. The four principal islands are Maun a, Tutuila, Upolu and Haviiii. The latter is 40 miles in lenguh by ) miles in breadth, and hns a population of 20, 000, and is the largest of the group. The area of the entire group is 2.650 square miles; population, 66,000. With the ex ception one, they are of volcanic origin. AoooKBiNO to a reoent dispatoh, the Chinese laborers are leaving California at a rapid rate. SiC9 the passage of the Scott bill, 2,913 Chines have lefl the country for China and not over 7f have landed. The dispatch says further that "On the Paoiilo ooust to-Ilny there are not over 65,000 Chinese all told, and not over 90,000 in the whole country. More than two-thirds of those arc-laborers, while the balance are women, children, merchants and students. As regards oalls for help, the Alaska cuu ners are in the worst fix of all. They have made arrangements to doublo their output next season, and now cannot get the neoessary Chinese labor, although they are offering 81.10 and even 81.50 per day. California needs thirty thou sand more laborers who oau afford to work five months in the year, say from June 1st to November 1st, nud then rest the other seven mouths, or seek othor employment." There is no reason for any uneasiness regarding laborers for the Pccifio ooast in the future, oven though every lahuring Chinaman should leave. The presenco of Chinese labor has retarded the immigration of uouent whits labor to this ooust from the over orowded East, wjjere.wages are lower in many places than are even paid Chinese. Now that they are rapidly leaving this ooast, some enoourngement will given to white labor to oome in and supply the demand. The young of both sexes will no longer be pluoed in a position to be led astray by their vioes, and the ooast generally will be better off. '.Let them go. Iho nff-ruff, the common herd of Chiuamon, of whion 'tho Chinese popu lation on this ooait is largely made up, have always been a deoided drawback d a festering ulyui to n naturally pros wntioiy i'' 'K dispatch sayn: Con ,io ooinuiu)t of a Atwrub1? nature been indulged) eiuoe Christinas on account of the manner in which the He brew population of this city observed Christmas. The Hebrews, uotwithstaud ing the radioul difference in the impor tanoo of Christmas day in the roligiou of the Hebrews and Christians, observed the festival almost as muou as the Chris tians. Besides the usuul services at the synagogues held ou Tuesday at this sou son of the year, an extra service was held to oommemorute the day, but from the Jewish conception of Christ as a prophet, merely. The religious exor cises at the synagogues were much sim pler than at the Christian churches. A rabbi of the Jewish ohuroh says that this adoption of the Christmas festival was duo ohiefly to a spirit of friendliness on the part of the Hebrews toward the people of the ohurohes. While they do not relinquish any part of their religious belief, they ohoso to join with the Chris tians in a day of celebration. It is stated positively at the depart ment of state that no demand for indem nity has been made in the case of the steamer Haytiau Republic Mooro, the owner of the vessel, reooutly requested Secretary Bayard to make a doinuud for $250,000 indemnity. The secretary iu formed him that there was to need of haste. The question of damage oau best be determined after the vessel has arrived in New York, where she is due in a few days. If the steamer was in use at the time of oapture, in the iutorest of the insnrgantB of Hayti, the Uaytian government had a just reason for con fiscating the vessel. Th secretary of the interior recently rendered a decision in the case of the state of Oregon vs. the United States, iu whioh is involved about 00,800 acres of land in the Lakeview land district, oom prising what is known as swamp laud, list number five. The secretary orders the certification that was made to the state of Oregon net aside, and directs the commissioner of the general land oflioe to prepare another list, which shall oou tain lands known to be swamp. John and Wile Matthews, two of the condemned Bald Knobbers, and W. P. Halbenseben, Frank Johnson, William Bedford, Thomas Booney and Williuiu Sassen, train robbers, esoaped from jail at Ozark, Mo., on ths night of the 28th ult. by the assistance of friends on the outside. Dave Walker, leader of the Bald Knobbers, and his son William, al so under sentenoe to hang, and a young man named Buger, refused to leave, and were found iu their cells when the dig oovery was made. Th body of a boy, eight years old, wai found in a stable at Bradford, Eng land, on the 29th ult. It was shocking ly mutilated, the ears, nose, legs, aud arms were out off, the body disembow elled and the dissevertd members' stuff mto the cavity. FROM WASHINGTON TERRITORY. Hunter P. O., W. T., Dec. 22, '88. Editor Gazette: Once more I place myself in an awk .vard position, over a rickety table, with uy stubby pencil tightly gripped in my usty old fist. I have been sitting in his miserable fix for nearly an hour and mven't yet thought of anything worth the paper, or even the waste of the pen- Jil. What a oonntry for news! There jasn't been a wedding for three months, and nobody drunk since the election and only one fight that day, a black eye and i oup full of ouss words. There are no preachers in this part of the land. Wl- a wicked little World! I fear some the young folks will lose their souls. Anoiher dance last night at Mr. Hamil ton's place, whioh was largely attended and generally enjoyed by all present. There as a grand ball at the residenoe of Mr. Fred Englehart on the Htu iust., which was a quite an enjoyable affair. There will be a social hop at Mr. Troges, plaoe ou Christmas eve, and it is report ed that there will be another at Fred Englehart's on New Years eve. The young people organized a literary society on lust Wednesday evening which we hope may be a success. This beats any place for dancing that ever saw, old Long Tom not excepted. A fiddler leads a miserable life in this part of the world. Just imagine a man sitting on a board that never was planed fer fourteeu long hours with his mouth open, swallowing all the dust that is kicked up. What a horrible way of committing Bitioide, and even if the ma jority of the crowd are willing for him to have five minutes rest during the long uight, there are always some so cruel that the very moment the violin stops its racket, they will step before the wretched musician nud earnestly plead for a few Btru'UB of a favorite waltz or polka. I used to buw the gourd some myself, but I made such slow progress that I got disgusted uud quit the busi ness. But since I came to this conutry and heard some of the leading violinists, I resolved nt once to pick up my long neglected profession and play for all the dances in the country, providing the amount oould be collected whioh a fid dler actually deserves, so I got hold of an old riddle and Boon got my fingers limbered so that I oould imitate several quadrilles, wultzes and polkas, and the firat thiug I thought about afler I found that I had not forgotten all about fid dling, was to wonder when they would oall ou me to play. But no trouble about that. I was soon afforded an op portunity to execute my skill. There was to be a grand bull to raise money to fur nish the new school house on Hovey oreek, aud I made a calculation as near as I could, about ths number of persons that would be there, uud as I knew they had made arrangements for everybody to bring their own supper, and as they only wantod $10.00 to com plete the school house, I felt assured that the balance, whioh would not be less than 820 or 825, would be turned over to me. With this joyful thought raukliug in my mind, I went nt it back iu oue corner of the house -did my best played till 12 o'clock, swallowed most of the dust and some splinters, whioh were torn loose from the puncheons, and the kindly (loor-mauager, seeing that I was growing weary, auuouiiocd that wo would have recess for a few minutes and sup; also iu oouulusiou, with those few remarks he thanked the boys very kindly fot their liberal contribution, did all that oould be expeuted, and as he counted ever the silver I was shocked to hear him say, "Seven dollars and five ooiits. I seized my hat aud rushed out of the room and was Boon on my lonely path home, thinking what n fool I had beun and of the night's sleep I had lost. I dou't suppose I shall play any more uulii the new school' house is finished. We are still having beautiful weather. This oliiuato is very different from what we supposed it would bo. lusteud of se vere cold we hnvo had almost continual fogs uud lots of nice warm rains, although there iB time enough yet for a freeze-up and cold snap. But being bo far north, one would hardly expect but that oold weather aud snow would oommeuee earlier. Our expeotod guests have not yet ar rived. Grass is growing very fast, aud withal it sueuiB more like spring than winter. Sam Snuwlkk. EIGHT MILE MATTERS.

The school house is oue of the best in the country und is furnished with extra nice desks for writing, uud is large enough to ac oommodate ult the pupils now attending school. The pupils are not fur ad vanced but are thorough. A writing sohool, which bus beeu well attended, was eoudusted two eveuiugs iu the week (ten lessons) for the benefit of the pupils, ' On Thanksgiving evening, after wri ting sohool, the pupils popped ooru aud indulged iu a geuerul good time. A few of the parents were there. Pop com filled the mouths uud pookets of all, aud the floor got a generous share ot ooru and oobg. The house is well decorated with pret ty cards aud pictures, the ohildren hav ing all brought something to assist in making the bouse more pleasaut. All teachers should enoonruge ohildren in school house docoration. It makes tbe bnre, rough walls pleasant and attractive. Ou the evening of December 5th the the school gave an entertainment con sisting of class recitations, declamations, readings and soDgs. "Almost all of the performances were of school work. A large number of the parents were present and seemed pleased and interested. Mns. 8. 8. Shields. Toaoher. HON. T. E. FELL MARRIED. Bloominston. Hi., Eeo. 31. Mr. The- ron E. Fell of Heppner and Miss Mamie Dodson wore married at 60'clook to-day, at the bride's residence in this city. Rev. James Shannon was tbe officiating cler gpnian. About 200 guests were present. Mr. Fell is widely known throughout Eastern Oregon and Washington, and also has many friends in this oity who will be pleased to learn of his marriage. He is a member of the well-known wool commission firm of Ayers & Fell, and was elected by the republicans of Mor row county at the recent election to serve in the lower house of the legislature. To his unflagging energy and populari ty is due much of the success that at tended the construction of the Heppner branch of the O. R. & N., and many are of the opinion that had it not been for bis untiring efforts the road would not yet have been surveyed. Mr. Fell's par ents live in Heppner. Oregonian. A Novelty. We gratefully aoknowl- ed ,e the receipt, from Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.. of a bound set of their Almnnacs for 1889, making a handsome nud valuable presentation volume. Be sides the various editions in English adapted to North and South America, Australia and India, there are editions in French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Swedish, Norwegian-Danish, Dutch, Bo hemian, and Welsh; also, specimen pnges of the pamphlets issued by the firm in eleven other languages, including Italian, Finnish, Turkish, Armenian, Bulgarian, Polish, Hawaiian, Gujariti (India), Burmese and Chinese. Nothing oould better illustrate the amount of business done by the company thnn the fact that such a polyglot Almauao is called for, the cost of whioh must have been immense. For ourselves, we con fess that wo should often be lost without Ayer's Almanac, accustomed, as we long have been, to rely upon the accuracy of its calculations; and we hnvo 110 doubt that to those in need of it, Ayer's Sarsa parilla is equally trustworthy as a niedi oine. The familiar yellow-covered pam phlet cau now be had nt all ding stores. Don't Want Dhunkun Phinteus. We desire above all other evils to be relieved from druuken printers.

Petition 132 Feet Lono, The oiron lars sent out by the Alpine club - asking for signatures to the petitiou to be sent to the state legislature for the enaction of laws for the prevention of deer kill ing still continue to oome in. The peti tion is already 132 feet in length. This is the longest petitien ever stmt to the legislature iu this state, and oertainly will have some claim to recognition when presented. The letters sent out at the same time us the oiroulars, stipulated that the petitions should lint be returned any later than December 20th. This limit hns already been passed and n few petitions even yet continue to arrive. If there are any more out they will still oome iu time if seutatouoo. Oreyonian. Yoo Should Takb it. Harper's Monthly for October has this to say of the Detroit Free Proes: "The Free Press is 11 woekly literary aud family pa per, with a funny department that has given it a reputation uud circulation in every part of the United States, and made profitable the publication of a special edition iu England to be sold iu Europe. The writer of the most popular humorous nrticlos and sketches for the Free Press is Charles B. Lewis, whose 110m dc plume is "M.Gjuad." The reputation of the Free Press was not built up exclusively ou the reputation of M. Quad's tunny articles, uor is it re tained solely or exclusively by them. Tho proprietors have made of it a popu lar literary and family paper. The ex pectation of finding something tunny in the "Bijah" or "Lime-kiln Club" papers may causo one who has never Beeu the Freo Press to buy it to read upon the oars or in a leisure hour. The interest ing character of its general contents causes that purchaser to subscribe for it for n year." This is high praise from a high quarter, but is deserved. You oan hae this great family paper and the IIkithkr Gazkttk, each for one year, for 82.00. Are va to Have Another War? Some political prophets aver tltut we shall. Be that as it may, the battle wag ed by medical science against disease will never cease until we arrive at that Utopian epoch when the human family shall cease to be afflicted with bodily ailments. One ot the most potent Weap ons which the armory of niedcine fur nishes, is Hosteller's Stomach Bitters, which is of special utility us a family remedy, as it is adapted to the immedi ate relief nud ultimate cure of those (lis orders ot Iho stomiioh, liver and bowels whioh are of commonest occurrence. ItidigCHtion, biliousness and constipa tion are inseparable companions, uud these ailments are completely eradicat ed by the Bitters. But the remedial scope of this superlatively w holesome and geuial niedcine takes 111 also nervous ailmouta, rheumatism and kidney trou bles ; its nation iu these, as iu the other oomplaints, being characterized by uu equaled thoroughness. Blessing of Sleep, Dr. Flint's Remedy, for the man or womau who fiuds himself or herself uu alii to sleep nights, is uu invaluable medic. ne, which will not only procure tho blessing of sleep, but will prevent a general breaking down of the system. Descriptive treatise with each bottle; or, address Muck Drug Co., N. Y. The chief of the secret service division of the treasury department, in bis annu al report, says the representative value of Iho counterfeit money captured dur ing the year was 82,117,523, of which over 82,000,000 were imitations and feo similes of notes. There wore captured 85 plates, 40 dies, 45 moulds and a large quantity of counterfeiting parapherna lia. The Spanish government at Porto Ri co, n. eu an American vessel $4UIU in July; 1887, for having a less cargo on board than was shown by the manifest No reasonable exouse being given, the fine was never remitted, and the depart ment of state insists that the Spanish of ficers acted only iu accordance with their laws, and drops the matter.

A dispatch from Ponghkeeusie In speaking of the zoro weather prevailing in that region said trains ou the New- York Central and Hudson river road were losing time because of the defective working of their steam heating annarn tus, and that local railroad men believed the doom of steam-heated cars was seal ed. Collector Hager, of the port of San Francisco, believes that in order to pre vent the smuggling of prepared opium the dty of 810 per pound should be re - duced to 85.
