I have carcluly checked all my records and find nothing trom you of such a case, or is this another one of your sc hemes to trap and otherwise harass me as you have all along You arc a little difficult to deal with when you don't bother to share your fantasies with me, at least, that I might rcs- pond with lawful paper work, though you don't respond to me or The Constitutions of Oregon or the United States anyway, disregarding my status as a true member of the • WE THE PEOPLE".

Wa No Eire Extinguisher. $30 fine Sheriff’s Report Heppner Police Report Governor Goldschmidl's "Oregon Comeback" has a familiar nng. The G overnor's plan to spur economic development was a strongly touted c ampaign promise and has now begun to surface in specific programs The heart of the project centers around a reorganized Department of Economic Dcsclopmcnt charged with spending the lottery profits, and a collection of Regional Economic Development Strategies to guide that expenditure The lottery profits were supposed to finance economic development from the very beginning hut with cost over runs and all. success was not a word one am id apply to the idea Goldschmidt's overhaul projected $25 million for the purpose over the next two years Even hef(/re the Regional Strategies program was announced, the Cover nor had committed $15 million for the Oregon Convention Center in Portland, several more million for a similar facility in Eugene and a a m ple of million for a Bend center The regions are being coerced by the Department of Economic Development and the strategies arc being writ ten around tourism a* the target industry. Morrow County's committee is in the process of structuring a region and a development strategy which looks like a tourism based target just as the department wants Thus it appears that Governor Tom McCall’s slogan of a few years ago. which many observers claim actually retarded economic development in the date, has been resurrected by Governor Neil Goldschmidt McCall bcsecchcd our neighbors to “ Come visit, hut don't stay." Sure enough, they built manufacturing plants, created jobs, paid taxes, financed schools, built homes and stayed in Washington and California and Idaho. Now. Goldschmidt is inviting them to "Come hack” for another visit Same song, second verse Chamber Chatter While Supplies Last REVERE MILLS kitchen towels let you dry dishes and wipe up spills fast These first-quality. 16 by 25-inch towels are made of 100% cotton and have hemmed edges Asstd designer prints »v?»*» M u M ' j D aua i I 7 N orth Main Jan 213 • Or GiffonJ Jan 9-17 * Or Thtessen Jan 23124 Or Koznek SINGLE FILTER 45% Off __________ C A S E M IX OR MATCH 45% O ff One Dozen Heppner Auto Parts® 676-9123 Make it 148 E Center Heppner NAH BRAND new!
