An individual, curious in Bueh mat

appear but one year in ten for 900 years.
There are a number of boys running
about town, that Bhonld be in school.
Parents are not only doing the children
a wrong by not having them attend
school but also the oommunity in which
they reside. Every boy and girl of
sohonl age should be compelled to at
tend school, instead of being allowed to
run about town.
That Stanley is safe is now the uni
versal belief in Europe. His mission
has virtually been accomplished, and if
he is not on his return trip, he has taken
a new contract of exploration or conquest
under Emin Pasha. When Stanley re
turns, if he ever does, what a story he
can tell of his adventures in the heart
of the dark continent.
The Arlington Times objeots ' to giv
ing the John Day and Long Creek peo
ple a good road across the mountains as

that is a foolish thing for an Arlington
paper to do to tight a measure whioh
will Denetit tne people wno iraae witn
them. No donbt hese people will re
member Arlington for her kind consider
ation of their welfare.
The attendance at the pnblifi sohool
is gradually increasing, and wfl regret
that owing to recent illness Mrs. Dr.
Swinburne has been obliged to olose her
department. Our teachers are deserv
ing of speoial praise for the pains and
interest taken in their work. A goon
school adds one very valuable attraction
to the merits of a town, and . upon this
one possession depends, to an extent the
advanoe of a oity. ...

The Umatilla county division question
was killed in the Oregon legislature on
Wednesday last. The Milton Eagle has
the following quaint way of notifying its
readers: "Died At Salem, on Wednes
day. January 30. 1889, of starvation, D.
I. Vision, aged ten years. On account
of the poverty of the deceased no funeral
services will be held, hut the remains
will be embalmed and await resurrec
tion two years hence. 'Not Dead, bat
Sleeping.' "
The youthful editor of the CenJernlle
Home Prest gives vent to his feelings in
this manner. He says: "Frank Cok,
one of our good C?) subscribers at Ella,
Morrow county, has skipped the country
without paying his does to tbis paper
which amounts to $i. May be be toss
ed on the devil's red-hot pitchfork ths
rest of bs naturM life is the prayer of t
sinful editor." Now brother we would
not be so hard on one of nnr delinquent
subscribers. We bad one forget ns for
twice that amonnt, and we let bits off
with ten years of such punishment, and
with the understanding that if he paid
up in the meantime we would forgive
him all.
HARDMAN NOTES.
Habdmah, Feb. 12, '89.
JO. Editor:
No appearanoe of any change in the
weather, whioh is beautiful as ever; and
still we are not happy. At least some of
the farmers are not. They seem to
think that the lack of snow means no
crops; still mere are some wno nave
more faith, and look forward to a beauti
ful harvest this year. I hope their faith
will be amply rewarded. Grass out here
is beginning to look green and stock are
eagerly looking after it. All are busy
plowing, and, from what I eau hear,
most of it will be put to barley it seems
to pay better than any of the other
oereals out here.
Protracted meetings are finished, and
religion has gone baok to its normal
state.
Ben. Poppen has returned home from
the East and brought a bride with him.
Morrow county girls will have to look
after tbe baohelors a little closer and
stop that kind of work.
Mr. Ersley lost a fine mare a few days
ago.
Bert Deford, who has been oonfined to
his bod with inflammatory rheumatism
for the past mouth, is some better, but
not able to get around yet.
The grange olnb, which was started
here a year ago. bus died an unuafuril
death. Can nothing bo' done with the
"miller at Olex" to make him alter his
mill-dam aud allow the salmon to come
up Rook creek? We have had no fish
for the last three years, and think it
time that something be done' to secure
what we all orave nuruely, "fish."
We are on a -par with the French;
while they have a Boulanger, we Imvo a
swain who aspires to the Directorship.
Our young folks have a good chance
of studying oratory. Their model, like
the bird who saved "Rome," stands on
oue leg, with the other tucked not uuder
his wing, but renting on a bench. He
utters a few disconnected sentences,,
staooato motion; and lor variation,
reprimands the folks iu tbe Devil's

APl'KOPKlAT'ION U1IX P.USKB.
Last week we published the full tc xt
of Fell's House Bill No. 93, providing
for au appropriation of 810.000 to com
plete the wagou road from Uepp;,er to
Monument. This bill oarue up for final
passage last M uday in the Senate aud
was oarried by a good rnnjoritv, aud now
awaits the Governor's signature. On
receipt of the news iu Heppnor about
fifty of the leuding oitizeus telegraphed
Mr. Fell their congratulations, compli
menting him upon his suooesBfnl mau-
agement of the bill. At one time it was
feared by the people of Morrow and
Graut comities that this measure would
not pass, owing to the base insinuations
made by oue of our home papers, who
olaimed thev snw a mit up job in the
matter aud that Mr. Fell, in urging the
passage of the bill, had privato ends in
view. This ooming from a paper pub
lished in Mr. Fell's owu county, gave
members who were not favorable to this
bill a graud opportunity to work against
it. These honest, far-sighted people (?)
these grand exposers of trickery aud
fraud (?) would, if iu their power, com
pel the citizens of Morrow mid. Grant
oouuties to cat "hard tuck" uTl'thoir
natural lite, rather than that then should
he oompelled to acknowledge that Mr.
Fell was instrumental iu securing legis
lation which buttered their bread on
both sides.
STEAMEB QUARANTINED.
The steamer Oregon was quarantined
32 hours at Astoria ou her way up to
Portland last week, thi-re. having been n
oase of 8uvillp x discovered in the steer
age. However, the passengers were
made comfortable by the ollioers of the
boat aud enjoyed themselves immensely,
smallpox or otherwise. Tue steamer ar
rived at Portland at 3 o'clook ou last
Saturday, having on board among the
cabin passengers, Mrs. Nellie Favor, ol
Oakland, Cal , and Mrs. 0. Siperley, of
Chioago, relatives of D(. D. H Band,
who is well known in the Heppner
country.
As particular oare h is heed takeu to
prevent the spread of the disease, n one
of the passeugoss are likely to suffer any
inconvenience from the exposure. Iu
fact, they all seemed to have been so
well entertained while at Astoria, that
uiallpox was scarcely tuought of.
DEATH OF UltS. J. B. SPKKKY.
It is with feelings of deepest regret
that we have to record the death of our
friend and neighbor, Mrs. J. B. Sperry.
She was a good honest woman, a kiud
wife and a levins' mother. She was a
woman who had a kind word for every
one, and her many friends will long
mourn her suddeu death, but it w is
God's will and we must bow to His de
oree, for He doeth all things well. The
funeral took place yesterday from the
Baptist church, uu.l was attundod by a
large conoourse of sorrowing friends aud
relatives. The services were conduoted
by the Bev. G. E. Pruak, and though
short, were touching and impressive. Ail
day the town presented a mournful as
pect, and there wai almost an eutire cos
ation of business.
Progress. It is very important in
this age of vast material progress that a
remedy be pleasing to the taste ana to
the eye, easily taken, acceptable to tbe
stomach and healthy in its nature and
sffeots. Possessing these qualities, ayr
np of Figs is the one perfect laxative
and most gentle diuretio known.

A BIUDSEVE VIEW Of THE WORM
There is a widespread demand by all
readers and students for a work that
Hindi furnish compaotly and attractively
all the esseutial facts and statistics of
the different regions of the world, and
the races that, inhabit them.' All this
information has been :.- industriously
sought, carefully tested mid proved aud
is brilliantly to'ld iu 'one handy and
handsome volume by Onesime Beolus,
tbe famous French geographer and ea
viint. The author has really succeeded to a
surprising degree in accomplishing his
purpose. It in a wonderful book and
there is no other like it. It is just what
its title roprcsento it to be a book all
around the world -but it is I he world
seeu through eves of the. largest intelli
gi nee mid dcnorihed with illimitable vig
or, Ireahueas aud pioturosque grace, ooin
tiint.l wiih studious and painstaking
accuracy. The result is the story pf the
world. The more the volume is looked
into tho grmdur is the sense of its wide
scope and its masterly preparation. 1 At
tractive reading for the family gathered
around the evening lump, it is also a
handy book for immediate referenoe for
tbn busy man who would illuminato his
daily news with moro accurate informa
tion. In brief, it great deal of hard work,
paiuBtakm-j and skill have goue into
the preparation of .this volume, which
is no catch penny ooneern, piesenting a
huddled mass of pitch-forked roots to the
innocent reader under the preteune of
encyclopedic information. It is what it
professes to be, n short view of all the
peoples aud countries under the sun, so
arranged and digested that R great deal
of useful and interesting knowledge is
packed handily in a limited space.
While a child would never tire of the fas
cination or the faots illuminated by 371
illustrations of which 9'J are full-page,
tbe most thoroughly road man will find
something, tho importance of whicbJ-ho'
never so fully realized ns when a geo
graphical expert presents it with scien
tific effect in attractive phraseology. The
man who prepared tbis work is a genius
iu such effort. There are no weak spots
in it. The nuhlishers have done their
best for the mechanical part of the work
aud their euterpnse lenvt.8 nothing to be
desired in that respect.

SAM SMALL'S ADVICE.
Sam Small's advice to men and boys,
equally applicable to girls who race tbe
streets at night, is thus given: "It is
tbe natural disposition of sheep to stray
off, and if you do not pen them tbe
wolves will get them. If you mothers
and fathers have your boys trolloping
around at night it will ruin them, no
matter how good they are. Tbe best
thing a woman can do with her husband
is to pen him when night comes. No
woman wants her husband nioniLg
around at night, and they will rnn off if
you don't pen them. If yon do not pen
your boys somebody else will. Some of
them are now penned in the penitenti-
