"Our liberty depends on the
freedom of the press, and thai
cannot be limited without
being lost." Thomas Jefferson
' "Freedom of t he press is not
an end in itself but a means to
the end of a free society."
Felix Frankfurter
"If all printers were deter
mined not to print anything till
they were sure it would offend
nobody, there would be very
little printed." Benjamin Franklin.
Without a free press, it is
doubtful whether there could
have been an American Rev
olution. The Revolution didn't
just happen: preachers, pam
phleteers and journalists were
generating and publishing
revolutionary ideas for many
years. Some of the Founding
Fathers wrote articles and
essays that inflamed opinion:
and the Constitution itself
contributed lo great public
controversy. But if a free
press helped to create Ameri
ca, on many occasions since it
has seemed to divide it. From
Tom Paine to the Pentagon
Papers, the press and the
Establishment have been ad
versaries, sometimes cordial,
more often not. Some of the
Founders feared that Ihe
spirit of the revolution would
vanish without independent
voices of conscience: by
contrast, other ardent suppor
ters of Ihe Constitution have
seen the commercial press as
fragmenting and undermining
the Republic. Is the press too
powerful'.' Uoes it jeopardize
Ihe rights of others especial
ly the right to privacy? The
media can make, and un
make, public opinion, values
and personalities. Because it
wields such power, should the
press be licensed, or monitor
ed in some way? If so. by
tthom'' Can a free press
monitor society if it is
monitored itself?

As you walk or drive on Qua id Street in Heppner. do many
of you know about Ihe pioneers from w horn the name came?
Thomas Qua id w as one of six brothers w ho came with their
parents from Dublin. Ireland lo the U S. in 1844 when Tom
w as 16 years old. The family located in Ohio and later several
of the brothers came to Oregon
The Quaid brothers Tom. Mike. Pat and Billy lived near
here and first worked with sheep. Records show that Mike
Quaid. who died in a horse accident, was the first person
buried in Heppner's cemetery. Only Tom married, and he
and his w ife Pauline, daughter of Oregon pioneer Harvey
Smith, had only one child, a daughter Catherine Quaid Hofen.
and thus the name Quaid vanished, except for a street
marker in Heppner.
When Kate Quaid Hofen was 90 years old she wrote a long
letter to Mrs. Harnett of Ihe Morrow County Museum giving
details of her own and her parent's lives. She was born in the
log cabin on the Quaid Ranch on Balm Fork about where the
Ralph Beamers live now. Her father finally built up his land
holdings to 7.000 acres where he raised wheat, alfalfa and
other crops.
Tom Quaid helped to plat the tow n of Heppner. He married
Pauline Smith in 1874 w hen she w as 17yearso!d. In 1891 "The
promoters of the Palace Hotel that was built in Heppner were
Thomas Quaid. J W. Morrow. C.A. Rhea. Henry Blackman
and J.B. Natter all men possessed with enterprise and the
capital necessary to carry out any such undertaking to a
successful issue. The magnificent three-story brick building
on Morrow Corner is as fine a hostelry as is to be found in any
other town of tw ice the size in the Inland Empire" says the
1902 history of Morrow and Umatilla county. Phil Metschan
ran the Palace Hotel for some years before he moved to
Portland and took over the Imperial Hotel.
In 1905 Tom Quaid retired and moved to Portland w here he
purchased a half-block at 12th and Salmon Streets and a
home that w as occupied by his w ife and their daughter for
many years after his death in 1916.
The pioneer Catholic Quaid brothers came into Stansbury
Flat in a spring wagon in 1871 to attend church services,
before the settlement was named Heppner.
When .Mrs. Tom Quaid died in 1955 she was 97 years old.
Her w ill bequeathed much of her J2O5.0O0 estate to the Oregon
Board of Higher Education for use in the construction of a
psychiatric hospital at the University of Oregon Medical
School. She left $5,000 to Pioneer Memorial Hospital and
$5,000 to SI. Patrick's Church. Her daughter was planning to
file a suit to contest the w ill, according to newspaper reports.
