Farmers Will Meet to
Discuss Wage Scale
A meeting of Morrow county farm
ers to discuss the harvest wage scale
for transient labor will be held at
the County Agent's office in Heppner
Saturday, June 5, at 2 p. m. This
meeting is being called by a com
mittee appointed at the wheat grow
ers meeting held in Heppner May 13.
At this meeting a tentative minimum
wage scale for transient labor will be
adopted and used as a guide for Mor
row county representatives at a dis
trict wage meeting to be held at Ar
lington later. All farmers of the
county are invited to attend.
Prospects look good for the estab
lishment of a branch office of the U,
S. Employment service at Arlington
this harvest. This service, if estab
lished, will be free and will tend to
improve conditions both for the em
ployer and employee, This service
was requested by the Wheat Growers

Elks Win Championship
Game from Masons 19-11
The Elks won the championship
game from the Masons on Tuesday
evening 19-11 before the largest crowd
that has witnessed a twilight game
this season. Stores closed from 2 to
to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, which
was responsible for the $29.50 gate
at 25c a head.
Proceeds above expenses for thi
series to the amount of $19,50 was
turned over to the Legion Auxiliary
to help swell its poppy fund.
The Masonic team was weakened
by the absence of Wilson and Mc
Duffee, though Harlan McCurdy in
center field helped make up the defi
ciency. Sore arms on the part of all
the pitchers was largely responsible
for the large score, though errors
were numerous on both sides. Gay
Anderson clouted a home-run toward
the end of the 9-frame fray.

Lonerock Saturday evening, May 15,
1926. Funeral services were h'jld at

years, one month and twenty days
eld, having been born March 25, 1851,

Both Teams in Hitting Slump;
Cayuses Will Play Locals
Again Next Sunday.
Though the Slickpoo Indians from
Culdesac, Idaho, took the tough end
of the breaks in Sunday's game at
Kodeo field, the locals looked a shade
better, just about the shade indicated
by the score, 1-0. Both teams were
in a hitting slump, as the pitching
was not as strong as the statistics
indicate. Heppner had a new mounds
man in Swanson, previously with The
Dalles in the mid-Columbia league.
Apparently he did not have to exert
himslf to hold his opponents, but at
the same time he had good backing on
every hand.
Hermiui Hill, working at short for
the locals, showed the best form of
any fielder on the team, fielding a 100
per cent with several hard chances.
The Indian shortstop had hard luck,
making three bobbles, one of which
cost his team a run, He muffed An
derson's grounder, who scored on
Swanson's two-base hit, the only run
of the game,
Heppner earned a run in the eighth,
however, that she did not get, Paul
Aiken knocked the ball a clean ten
feet over the center field fence, a bin
gle which would have been a homer
in most any league park. The fielder
recovered the ball and caught Aiken
out at home. If Aiken had stopped at
third, he could have scored on Van
Marter's high fly immediately follow
ing, which would have made only the
ecoiid out had such been the case,
T. Samuels, Indian third sacker, had
tough luck on bases twice. Each time
he overstepped or missed second base
and was called out when the ball was
thrown back. The second time, ha
would have scored on . Samuels.' two
base hit except for hjg happening,
Heppner is gaining form every week
and the boys are now playing good
ball. Next Sunday they play the Ca
yuse Indians from Pendleton again on
the local field. They beat these In
dians two weeks ago 14-6. Roberts
will be in the box again for the locals.
Mercer and Nickerson umpired, and
Jack McGinnis was official scorer.

No Governorship
For Mine
My good old friend the Gov
ernor of Oklahoma was in to see
me at the theatre the other night. I
had just had humorous mention as
a candidate for that position, as
they wanted to revive the Populist
Party with me as the Standard
Bearer.
Well, the Governor showed me
what had happened to a friend of
his who had been defeated for Gov
ernor in our state, so he discouraged
me. I won't accuse him of doing it
purposely, but he did. His friend's
campaign expenditures were as fol
lows:
"I kissed 6,000 babies; helped 42
voters thrash wheat; shook hands
with the entire State; smoked 3,000
sacks of 'Bull' Durham; cut 22
cords of wood ; helped brand 8,000
calves ; spayed 4,000 of them ; was
sprinkled 8 times in Methodist
Churches ; totally immersed in cold
water in muddy creeks three times
by the Baptist; went to confession
in every Catholic Town ; paid dues
to 1 1 Synagogues ; charter member
of the Holy-Rollers ; listened to
800 get-together Kiawanis, Lions,
and Rotary speeches; bought sheet
and pillow slip in every Ku Klux
Klan in the State; and then I was
defeated.
" 'Bull' Durham was my sole
satisfaction not only during, but
after election. It is the only thing
that stayed with me."

in this paper soon, Look for it.
