W. H. French called at the Gazette
Times office Saturday while in town
on business and left a nice plump
young goose that proved a tasty mor
sel. While acknowledging the nice
gift, the editor wants to pay tribute
to other fine livestock produced on
the French ranch, pictures of which
Mr. French displayed. In one was
shown a fine team of black mares
each of which had her head resting
on one of the outstreched hands of
Mr. French, entirely without any
handling gear a sample of their
gentleness. Another showed the
tame buck deer in his pen. Left
with its mate under permit for Mr.
Frenchs care, this fellow was re
cently made happy by return of the
mate after several weeks "French
leave." Still another picture show
ed a group of four young jacks,
beautiful specimens of their specie.
Bill Morton of Walla Walla who
was visiting at the Paul Webb," Jr.,
ranch, left Tuesday morning for the
hospital in his home town, suffer-!
ing from an attack of gasoline poi
soning. Morton was a former bas
ketball and football player at Whit
man college where he and the Webb
boys attended school together.
Interest in the local sheep market
was evidenced this week by the vis

Included were Louie O'Connell of
Kalispel, Mont.; R. F. Clary of Great
Falls, Mont., and F. B. Wilson ot
Hammett, Idaho. Mr. O'Connell has
been a consistent buyer of sheep
here for several years.

sions for the firemen, pensions for
state employes, and pensions for city
employes are in the house hopper or
are being drafted. The big question
is, "where is the money to come from
to pav the pensions? Portland fire
men have a plan to tax premium
navments of all foreign fire insur
ance companies doing business in the
state. Liquor is scheduled to have
a sales tax of about 10 percent ad
ditional slapped on each pint or
quart to boost up old age pensions,
while state and city employes have
n't yet decided which source ot sev
eral they should tap for their pen
sion fund, other than the contribu
tion each will make from his salary.

Another measure which is sure to
come in again is a brand, new milk
bill, clipping the wings of the milk
board. Last session a senate bill aim
ed at the milk board lost by the
very close margin of only two votes.
Senator Mahoney (D) will again
carry the banner for the new mea

And another group of bills which
are sure to cause quite a stir are
the several wine bills that would
grant the right to serve wine by
the glass, drastically curtail the sale
of fortified wines, and ! almost bar
the sale of any wine except Oregon
made products.
A nice keen-endged anti-chain
banking bill is in the making and
probably will see the light of day
next week. The measure will have
considerable support and may cause
the chain bankers real grief. Here
is another bill that passed the house
last session only to meet death in the
senate. About 28 representatives
had their names on the measure,
and the same tactics will be. tried
this session with a flock of sena
torial names added for good effect.

Lions Claim Traveling
Trophy from Athena
Sixteen Heppner Lions and pros
pective Lions motored to Athena
Tuesday evening for a dinner ses
sion with the active young club of
that city, and returned the same
evening in possession of a traveling
trophy started two years ago by the
Pendleton club. Right of possession
is earned by piling up more man
miles in a visit to another club in
the district than have been made
previously by any club.
The Athena Lions proved jolly
hosts, and all in attendance enjoyed
a sparkling address on "Our Na
tion's Safetv" delivered by Jas. M.
Burgess, superintendent of Mac Hi
at Milton -Freewater. who was also
ih first president of the Heppner
Lions club. He paraphrased part of
,. ... i it
ih Lions motto. "Liberty, lntem-
oanno nnr nation's safety," for his
theme, and made a stirring appeal
for a rebirth of true Americanism
to combat the subversive elements
at umrk in the country today.
