Eastern Oregon Loses Two Top Citizens Within the past week this section of Eastern Oregon lost two well known citizens Frank Wilk inson of Heppner and Stewart Hardle, Condon publisher. Their interests and their lives were widely divergent, one a rancher, the other a news paper publisher, but both men had a circle of friends that was far larger than just their home towns. Mr. Wilkinson's ranching operations were ' among the largest in Morrow county and through his efforts, and those of his family, who all had a part in a successful ranch, his operation only recently was named for the county grassman of the year award. Such an award is a tribute to his farming ability, but a far greater tribute was paid to him by those who worked for him and those with whom he lived. They lost a friend on whom they always knew they could rely. Stewart Hardie's death will be keenly felt In Condon and Gilliam and Wheeler counties where he has for many years been a newspaper editor and publisher. His service to his community over the years was great for he was a member of the state senate, city recorder and county clerk. He spent his life In Condon and devoted most of It to helping his town and county grow and develop. To us he was a real friend and a "next door neighbor" in a publishing business that frequent ly requires a helping hand when mechanical or other problems beset a small paper. He cheerfully helped whenever needed though his own prob lems In getting out three papers were at times enough to make most men give up In despair. Stewart Hardie's greatest tribute also came from those with whom he worked. An employee told us, "He's the finest boss I ever had." Boosting an Oregon Product Oregon can be proud of many things. Among them Is a timely idea born here In 1955 which has proved to be worthy of national attention. The idea is Red Hat Days a project for better landowner-sportsman relations. Its inception two years ago brought together timber operators, stockmen and ranchers with sportsmen, the Game Commission-and essentially every organization In the state concerned with hunter conduct. Like an earlier Oregon Idea the antl-litter-ing campaign Red Hat Days has blossomed Into a nation-wide program.
