Stotkmtn Taming Their Fares Toward Al leged Better Homes aud Ranges Should Paste this In Their Hats. Careful inquiry as to the condition of range stock results in a very gloomy report of the way in whioh stock, es pecially oattle, are wintering. Mr. A. A. Pierpoint, a representative stock man, well informed on the situation, and thoroughly reliable, assures us that from present appearances the loss this winter will be 70 per ceut of cattle and 25 per oeut of horses. On the Columbia river the loss will be nearly as great. In the viciuity of Moses Luke the loss will be somewhat less. This damaging report is not due to a hard winter or 'to any disease among stock. It is because far mers are crowding out the stock men by fencing the agricultural lauds and water ing places. While the ranges have been greatly diminished by the homestead settler, the herds have rapidly increased, both by natural iuorease and immigra tion, with a result, not surprising, dis astrous. The days of large herds in the Big Bend are a thing of the paBt. Big Bend Empire. HEPPNER, Ott PENDLETON? It is strange that even now the peo ple of this neighborhood do not know whicliof the,two towns, Pendleton, or Heppner, will be their most advanta geous trading point iu the future. Dur ing last year the trade was divided be tween Arlington, Heppner and Pendle ton; the most of the trade being in Ar lington. Unless we have some particu lar point in view, we never shall have a decent road to any railroad town, fit for the "prairie schooners" to sail over with freight. The trade of this country will justify either Heppner or Pendleton to meet us half way or more iu the build ing of a wagon road aud with such a s.tart, a good road could soon be made from either place, with little or no trouble. So long as the business men of Pendleton see the trade of our Repub lic divided between the present number of towns, but little help need be looked for from that quarter, and the Heppner people aro no better in that respect. Arlington is fast fading from our view as a trading point , aud soon will entire ly cease to be regarded as such not that we have been overcharged for sup plies at that place, but because the "iron horse" now runs nearer our homes. If the wool produced iu this section is shipped through Heppner next season. then we would say, let us turn our atten tion entirely upon that plaoe and all travel the same road. Eayle. 1'OL'GH LUCK. W. B. Cunninghame came from Port land on last Saturday, himself and wife hayjng arrived there a few days ago af ter an absence of several months in Scotland. Mr. Cunninghame is well known in Oregon as one of the princi pal stockholders in the Newton Rauoh, Land & Stock Co., one of the largest concerns of the kind in Eastern Oregou. He, as manager, is constantly importing fine stock from the old couutry, and ou this trip bought seven Clyde stallions worth at least $14,000. Unfortunately, a storm set iu ou (he passage over, caus ing their death four days out. Mr. W. S. Young, who had charge of the stock, writes Mr. Cunningham as follows: "We had a singularly unfortu nate passage out. It started to blow very bard right at the 'Tail of the Bank,' and increased in severity as. we passed Troy Island. The horses never got a moments rest and were all dead four days out." Owing to the prevailing stormy weather, Mr. C was unable to insure the stock, and consequently the loss fulls heavily on the company. Rdnawat. On last Monday evening, up on Skinner Fork, Mrs. Harrison Hale and little daughter were riding in a cart wheu the horse became frightened, run ning aay and throwing out the occu pants, who, fortunately escaped with but little injury. K. of P. Ball. On the 10th inst., Doric Lodge No. 20, K. of P. will give a ball in the opera house of Garrigues & Rogers in oommemoration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the order.

On last Saturday evening, about 75 of Heppner's voters met in Matlock's hall to make nomina tions for the city ticket. The conven tion was called to order by Mayor Hen ry Blackman. Hon. W. R. Ellis was elected chairman, and M. C. McDougall secretary. The following nominations were made: Fo mayor, Henry Black man; for councilmen, J. W. Morrow, Ed. L. Matlock and Nelson Jones; treasurer, W. J. Leezer; recorder, G. W. Rea Convention adjourned. Town Election. On last Tuesday was our city election. Only one ticket being in the field, there was a smaller vote oast than at any previous town eleo tion. Total vote, 130. Henry Black mau recoived 123 votes for mayor, J. W. Morrow and E. L. Matlock, each 127 aud ueDe. Fbee Facts. A paper to be first class must receive first-class patronage. First class patronage consists in every sub scriber paying in advance, patronizing the job department in place of sending the work to foreign offices, and iu vari ous ways giving the paper your moral support. Moral support of itself wa never known to run newspapers; moral support cannot be utilized when ink aud paper bills are to be paid. The men who work upon newspapers are humane, and enjoy corn beef and cabbage as well as other people. Tbe atmosphere in this locality contains a large amount of ozone aud is very bracing, the scenery grand and picturesque, but nevertne- less it seems to be one of nature's laws that one can't pay lor printing material with ozone, or feed workmen on beauti ful scenery. Ex. There is some talk of the E. O. people i down at his store, on Main street, next publishing a daily Portland edition, and j door to the old Kellogg office, now the the Polk county Observer makes hast ! (). R. & Jf. engineers' headquarters. Al to remark that the Oregonian would! though Christmas is Dast. New Year. knock it ont in no time. That ought to set'le it, but, perhaps the E. U. folks are Bot go easily discouraged. Portland J should support democratic dady. Need a Balloon. The following pe tition was recently reoeived at Wash ington: To the Honorable Senate and House of Representatives: Your hum ble petitioner would respectfully beg that your honorable body pass the bill introduced by Senutor Butler empower ing the commissioners of Whitman coun ty, Washington territory, to issue bonds not to exceed 8100,000 to build a court house and jail in the town of Colfax. Now your petitioner most humbly prays that you double the dose and give them the privilege of raising $200,000. It will take this amount to keep the oouuty seat down in this hole; and, while you are about it, give us $50,000 more to build a balloon to get down to the county seat in, aud your petitioner will ever pray. John Smith. Killed in Jordan Valley. A priv ate letter from Vale, Malheur oouuty, states that at Jordan Valley recently a fight took place between William Hughes hes and C. O. Nelson, two former resi dents of Pilot Rock, iu which Nelson was killed. No particulars were given, and the mere fact of the killing 4s all that can be given to the East Orego nian's readers. Nelson was a Swede, a quiet, iuofiensive fellow, who was con tinuously employed near Pilot Rook for three years by E. Gilliam. Hughes is well-known throughout this seotion. He was peaceable enough when sober, but when drunk was dangerous, aud it is probable that he killed Nelson while un der the influence of liquor. E. O. Gband Ball. Ou the 22d inst., Boyd & Wills, of lone, will give a grand ball in the lone hall. Full preparations are beiug made to have it one of the most enjoynble affairs ever given in that com munity. T. J.

A ltlRDSKYE VIEW OF THE WORLD. There is a widespread demand by all readers and students for a work that shall furnish compactly and attractively all the essential facts and statistics of the different regions of the world, and the races that inhabit them. All this information has been industriously unit irhr. narefnllv tested and proved and is brilliantly told in one handy and handsome volume by Onesime Reolus, the famous French geographer aud sa vant. , , , The author has really suooeedea to a surprising degree in ncootnphshing his purpose. It is a wouuerrni uooa ami there is no other like it. It is just what ts title represents it to be a book all uninnrl thn world but it IS the world seen through eyos of the largest intelli gence and described witu lunmuiuie vig or, freshness and pioturesque grace, com bined with studious ana paiustaKing . . .i . - ... .1. .. accuraoy. lne result is rue siory oi me world. The more the volume is loimeu into the greater is the sense of its wide scone mid its masterlv preparation. At tractive reading for the family gathered around the evening lamp, it is oiso a handy book for immediate rel'oreuo for the busv man who would illuminate his Jaily news with more accurate informa tion. In brief, a great deal of hard work, painstaking and skill have gone into the preparation of this volume, which is no cotch penny concern, presenting a huddled mass of pitch-forked facts to the innocent render under the pretense of encyclopedic information. It is what it professes to be, a short view tit an me peoples and oonutrios under the sun, so orrauged and digested that a great deal of useful and interesting kuowledge is packed handily in a limited spaoe. While child would never tire of the fas cination of the facts illuminated by 371 illustrations of which 99" are full-page, the most thoroughly read man will find something, the importance of which he never so fully realized as when a geo graphical expert presents it with soien- tiuo eueet iu am uciive juniBcuinj. man who prepared this work is a genius in such effort. There are no weak spotB in it. The publishers have done their best for the mechauical part of the work and their enterprise leaves nothing to be desired in that respect. The J. Dowine company. Bid Market street, San Fraucisco, Cal., are the sole agents for the work this side of tue Rooky mountains, and all applications for agencies should be addressed to them. Tailoring.

Our lady renders can hardly fail to lieve their attention onlled this week to the latest combination of improvements in that most useful of all domestic lm plMPWiiU, the "sewing machine." As we understand it, a machine for family use should meet first of all these requirements: It should be simple in its mechanism; it should run easily; it should do a wide range of work; it should be as nearly noiseless as possible; it should be light, handsome, durable, nnd as cheap as is consistent with exoel lence throughout. - These conditions tho "Light-Running INew Home certainly meets, it has also several very important and useful attach ments and "notions" of its own, which go far to make good its claims to popu lar favor. The "New Home" specially recom mends itself to purchasers on acoonnt of its snperior nieonanioal construction, ease of management and reasonable price. Over half a million have been sold in the last three years, all of which are giving universal satisfaction. The unrivalled machine is manufactured by the NEW HOME SEWING MACHINE CO., Orange, Mass., and 28 Union Square, New lork. PATENTS.
