I THE GAZETTE. HEPPNER, THUBSDAY. Miy S, ' HEPPNER Is the oonnty-seat of Morrow, located near the center of the oouoty, on Willow oreek, and at the terminus of the Willow creek branob of the O. K. 4 N, It has a popalatien of about 800, and ia rsoeiring new resident anny. as a ousineaa plaoe, it bids fair to take the lead of any town in Eastern Oregon, having tribu tary to it an immense agricultural and took oonntry. The snm of 810,000 was appropriated at the last session of the legislators for the purpose of improving the Heppner and Monument wagon road. That amount will be expended on this route during the eoming summer, rendering it the best mountain road in the etntr, aud one wbicb will accommodate hun dreds of well-to-do stockmen, wbo are bestowing tbeir patronage on merchants in Heppner, owing to its advantages aa a trading point Fully 3,000,000 pounds of wool will find sale, or shipment at Heppner this aeason. Beat estate is advanoing rapidly, and is selling at a figure 20 to 25 per cent, higher than prices prevailing three months ago. One of the beet flouring mills in East ern Oregon is looated at this point. For farther information concerning Heppner, address Own L. Patterson, Real Estate Agent, Heppner, Or. SOME DUTIES OF THE ASSESSOR. Last season no list of active members of the O. N. O. was made by the as eessor. According to law, it should have been done. The following is the law on the subject: "Seotion 3738. It shall be the duty of the assessor of each county in this Btate annually, at the time prescribed by law for assessing property, to make out a list of all persons in their respective oounties who are liable to do military duty, under the laws of the United tttates and of this state, which list shall be alphabetically arranged, and shall designate the precinot in whioh each person named in suoh list resides, wbicb shall be tiled by such assessor in the omoe of the county clerk ot their respect ive oounties at the same time and in the same manner as is provided by law for the assessment roll, and the clerk shall keep the same open for inspection as is provided by law for the assessment roll, and also record the same in Ins office id a book to be kept by bim for that pur pose. Sec. 3739. The said military assess ment list shall be corrected in the same manner, and the same time as is provided by law for the assessment roll; and it shall be the duty of the county olerk of eaoh oounty to deliver to the adjutant general of the state a duplicate of said list, oertilied by him within twenty duys after the list has been corrected; and the compensation for making out said mili tary list shall be the same, or be de termined and fixed in the same manner, as for making out the assessment roll. Sec. 3710. If any assessor ehnll neg lect or refuse to perform Hny of the duties required of him by this act, he shall be subject to the same penalties, liabilities and punishments as ib pro vided by law for neulect or refusal to perform any of the duties required of bim for the assessment of oivio taxes; and moreover, be shall forfeit and pay tbe sum of not less than three hundred and nut more than one thousand dollars, to be sued for in the name ot the state by the district attorney of the respective county and recovered iu the Duma of the state and paid into the military fund of the state; and if tho county clerk shall negleot or refuse to make and deliver to the adjutant-general a duplicate of the military assessment list as direoted by this act, lie shall forfoit and pay the sum of not less than two hundred and not more than five hundred dollars, to be sued for and recovered in the same manner as is provided in this Section with respect to assessor, and paid into the military fund of the state." Members ot the O. N. O. have been assessed and have also paid to the sheriff of Morrow oounty a military tax, al though the law provides that they shall be exempt from suoh. It is a matter of fact that the O. N. Q. does not meet with much favor at the hands of the taxpayers of Morrow ooun ty, yet the law should be observed in every respect. Members of this military organization are compelled to neglect their business frequently entailing loss to them and muoh inconvenience, and should they get all that the law allows them, it will be but little compensation. DlItTY WOHK AT OKLAHOMA. Dpou receipt ot press reports at Wash ington slating ttiat government employes and oflloials bad used their positions to secure prior rights in Oklahoma, ahead ot settlers, tbe president and secretary Noble telegraphed special agents now iu Indian territory to make a thorough in vestigation and notify the government immediately of the result. Secretary Noble is orodited with saying that not the least injustice to tho settlers will be tolerated, and aa soon as it is ascertained that officials are really mixed up with dirty work, the government will take the matter in band and proaeouto offend ers. Guthrie, Oklahoma City and other towns are assuming some degree of per msnenoy, and substantial structures are going up as rapidly as possible. Several men have already died over there with out having time to remove their shoes; bat every effort is being made to check lawlessness, and in a few weeks com parative peace will reign in Oklahoma. Old boomers who have patiently awaited the opening of Oklahoma from 'way baok in Payne's time, are orowded out by settlers who have never lifted a hand towards opsning this so-called "garden spot." There is nothing won derful about Oklahoma after all. Mor row oounty has much vacant land whioh ia tar better iu ever) respeot, and it takes no Winchesters to aid in making a per manent settlement. THE JOINT LEASE IU OFF. The joint lease ot the O. II. & N. be tween the Northern Paciflo and the Oregon Short Line is declared off. A dispatch says: Railway officials in this oity hardly know what view to take ut the action of the Northern Pacific railroad iu giving notice of its intention to withdraw from the Transcontinental Assoaiution. They admit thac bitter enmity now exists be tween the road in questiou and the Un ion Paciflo over their preseut difficulty, but tbiuk that, as the Northern Pacific's notioe does not expire until ninety days, which will be July 19, 111000881111 efforts will be made to save the association from disruption. E. L. Lomax, general passenger agent of the Union Paciflo, arrived from Fort land this morning (23rd alt.) aod spoke on tbe subjeot to a reporter aa follows: "We intend to sell passenger tickets from eastern points to the Puget Sound country regardless of anybody. We are Jireparea to answer lor our conduct be ore any body, any court, any association Wi I L. ' t "T1",' " : uol(l n ba allowed, wiltbeivn an oppTifta Or any OommiBtllOQ. It II Dot true that mtr at the above memioDed time and plica "to wa are Tiolatinr tbe Tranaoontiootital agreement. Chairman Leeds tbinks tbe aaine aa we do about it," HOPE FOR THE SETTLER. Settler in so-oalled railroad limits, wbo have paid $400 for pre-emptions, shonld get a rebate of $200 or 160 aores of additional land, when the grant actual ly reverts back to the government by act of congress. The land was never earned by the railroad, a fact known generally, and admitted in the "new land laws," which appeared in a recent issue of this paper. The act of oongress whioh will restore to the government thousands of acres of land in Morrow will no doubt provide that settlers have fair treatment Representative Herman is working assiduously in tbe interest of the settler, and will no doubt incorpo rate or have incorporated in the re versionary law, clauses whereby the settler wbo baa already proven up will not lose $200 in cash beoause be happen ed to be ao unfortunate as to select land within tbe limits of an unearned railroad grant. It is now understood that John Wan namaker, postmaster-general, is no longer in tbe clothing business, having sold out in June 1886 to Wannamaker & Brown. Tbe postmaster-general has been accused of working his offioe for the benefit ot his Philadelphia tailor shop, bat as be is not in the business, he surely cannot be oharged with tbat. Thk mortgage tax law of Oregon is a nuisance. Borrowers of money pay over aud above a fair rate of interest, enongb to meet taxes on mortagage, so it finally falls to tbe lot of tbe poor man tbe hard-working farmer, to pay this mort gage tax. Muob capital is kept out of Oregon by this law. It does not usually seek suoh a field for investment. It is to the benefit of all classes to have this law repealed as soon as possible. LET THE FACTS SPEAK. The Mutual Relief Association of Petaluina, Cal., is one of the oldest and best managed Associations in the coun try. It has returned to its living members in dividends $ii5,01l).o0, saving that in assessments, and making it one of the cheapest societies in existance. Its members receive a dividend the year after paying five annual payments, which dividend increases from year to year. It has a Reserve Fund amounting to over $8u,u0d, all woll and safely invested. It has paid $.00,000 in benfits to the nomineesof deceased members. It has bad only 280 deaths in nineteen years, or un average of 15 per year. It has been iu successful operation over eighteen years. Its assdU July 1, 1888, amounted to lU3,313.iiO It has nearly 2,000 members. It has paid $50,000 benifits in the State of Oregon in the last 18 years J. E. Whitson conies well recommend ed to us its beini a reli ble agent for the association and the association is reliable. Mr. VVbitHou will remain here a short time to write up persons wishing to become membersiu a rcliuble association. From $4 to $10 and one dollars assess ment to the death of any member insures for $2,000. WOULD FOLLOW HIS FaTHEK.8 OCCU PATION. (Marshal Morgan accompanied by Johnny, aged 5 yours, passing lower liv ery stable where some men are at work moving a pile of rubbish.) Marshal "Johnny, in a few years you will, no doubt, be employed like these men." Johnny "No I wou't either. When I get big, I'll bum around town like you do." ALL THIS FOR THK PUBLIC GOOIT. It is an undisputed fact that the hand somest vestibule trains that are now run on tbe American continent are those on the "Bcki.inoton Routb," leaving the Union Depot in Denver, also St. Paul, immediately on arrival of all through trnius from the west. The first aud second class coaobea are magnifi cent, the Reclining chair ours superb, tbe Pullmnn sleepers extremely luxuri ant, and as for the meals that are served in those Palace Burlington dining cars yum-yum. The next time you go east to Kansas City.Oliicago or St. Louis, if you mention to tho ticket agent that you want your tioket to read from Den ver or at. 1 sill over the llurlingtou Route, you will get it, and you will al ways be glad ot it. If you go via the Northern or Canadi an Paoiflo, tbe elegant vestibule trains f "The Burlington Route," between St. Paul, Chicago aud St. Louis will carry you alon,, the eastern shore of the Miss issippi river for a distance of 350 miles, amidst scenery that cannot be surpass ed; or, if you go via the Oregon Short Line or Southern l'aoiuo, and your ticket reads vm "The uiirhiigton Moute, from Ubeyenue or Denver, you will pass through nil the thriving cities ami towns looated in what is popularly known as the "Heart of the Continent.
