It is suggested that an artesian flow can be secured on the Heppner flat by boring- At any rato it is not a very ex pensive experiment to try it, and if it can be secured, it would prove much more valuable to Heppner than ordinary water works.

We are in some doubt as to whether the whole thing was not a "put up job," and we are inclined to think the efforts made by this whisky-drink.ngsonof Auak was part and parcel of a scheme of some of our enemies to lure us away from civil ization iu order to render our lynching a matter of comparative ease. With the example of our contemporary, the Loudon Times, fresh in our mem ory, we must oonfoss it was unwise for us to publish any snob startling informa tion on so slender a basis of evidence, and in aologizing for doing so, we must, bh the small boys have to, "promisa not to do it agaiu."

Town Talk. MtijT Hamilton Impuovinq. A gen tleman was iu from Hamilton on last Monday, and from him a reporter glean ed the following in regard to that terrible alfair: Milt Hamilton and Clata Hiuton had been having trouble for some time on account of a young lady who was stopping at Hamilton's. Hinton persisted in paying his respects to l,er, which wits quite distasteful to Mr. Hamilton. Ou the night of the dance at Senator Hamil ton's, Hinton insulted Milt's wife, and after the dance broke up, Mr. Hamilton' asked tho young man to come outside. Ho rose from where ho was sitting and answered by thrusting a knife into the breast of Hamilton, ;md before the victim had time to avoid it, received another cut in the arm, laying the flesh open to the bone from the point of the shoulder to tiie elbow. The weapon used was a dirk, although it was not found on Hiu ton when arrested. At present he is un der ijfbYiO bonds. , Mr. Hamilton is doing very well, with chances in favor of re covery. The Hailhoad Bai.i,. On last Friday evening was the occasion of the Railroad Ball, given at the opera house of Garri gues & Rogers. The young men who had charge of the' affair should be congratu lated on their superior management and arrangement for this ball, as it is the universal expression of those present that this was the greatest success of all such eiitortaiunients ever given in Hepp ner. Owing to the number present, it is impossible to give names of all. Our reporter noticed from Arlington, Misses Delia Bendy and Barbary Henderson, Messrs. Dr. O. T. Bacon, Cal.

A Reai, Necessity. We presume there is hardly a lady to be found in our broad land who, if she does not already possess a sewing machine, expeots some day to beoome the owner of one. But after the mind has been fully made up to purchase one of these indis pensable artioles, the question arises as to what kind of a machine to buy. It shenld be so simply constructed that the most inexperienced oan success fully operate it. The other points main ly to be considered, and whioh are the most desirable, are durability, rapidity, oapacity for work, ease of operation, regularity of motion, uniformity of ten sion, and silence while in operation. The "Light-Running. New Home" CHb the above requirements, and is said to combine the good points of all sewing machines, with the addition of many improvements and labor-saving devices. The price is no higher thau that of other machines, and every lady who is the happy possessor of oue may rest as sured she has indeed a treasure. See advertisement. AI,L THIS FOR TIIK PUUMC GOOD.
