Chamber Chatter
By Claudia Hughes, Chamber Manager
Intense autumn colors
against a crisp blue sky,
another heat wave, the sound
of Morrow County's grass bugs
and yellow jackets hitting the
windows, and traffic jams in
Heppner must mean fall has
arrived.
Along with fall comes the
Morrow County renaissance, as
demonstrated by the large
crowd at the Penland House
Thursday evening during the
kick-off of the Morrow County
Arts Council membership
drive. Many Chamber mem
bers were among the 50-plus
people enjoying the music,
refreshments and Don Eppen-
bach's synopsis of what lies
ahead.
Dance and instrumental in
struction, plays, a mystery
theater, jazz and youth sym
phony are just a few of the
coming events which are being
funded by the Morrow Coun
ty Unified Recreation District or
sponsored by the Morrow
County Arts Council. This
hard-working group makes the
job of the Chamber cultural
committee easy. We're here to
assist. Stop by the Chamber of
fice for a brochure to preview
the positive opportunities to
enjoy culture with our Morrow'
County neighbors.
Mark your calendars for the
Wednesday, Oct. 16 Candi
dates' Forum, sponsored by the
Heppner Chamber. Measures
will be presented at the Tues
day, Oct. 8 and 15 membership
meetings at noon at Kate's
Pizza.
Watch for the second issue of
the Chamber newsletter for ac
tivities and coming events. The
faster the leaves blow off the
trees, the busier we seem to be,
but remember: " I f you don't
pause, nothing worthwhile will
catch up with y ou ." You'll be
hearing more about Dr. Patt
Schwab, author of the above
quote, in the near future.

can't survive it. How will deer, antelope and elk drink if
they're fenced out?
Here's the most absurd provision of all. Anyone
can bring legal action against farm families and other
private property owners. Anyone! From anywhere!
Not only will harassing lawsuits skyrocket, only
the person bringing the lawsuit can recover court costs
and legal fees, except in rare cases. Instigators and
their lawyers from across the country will have a huge
incentive to abuse. And nothing whatsoever to lose.
Measure 38 is wrong. Dead wrong.
Farmers and ranchers already work together to
consistently improve land and water conditions. Do
you really want a few extremists and their lawyers to
fence in Oregon? To fence Oregonians out of their
lands and livelihoods?
No way.

The 38 in question is not a gun. But it might as
well be. Because it's aimed at so many things that are
near and dear to Oregonians:
The family farm. Life without lawsuits. Wildlife.
Outdoor recreation. The livestock industry.
Measure 38 seeks to fence in Oregon's farms,
ranches and dairylands. Why? Because the extremists
who ginned up this measure claim that horses, sheep,
pigs, cows, llamas— even ostriches and emus are the
principal cause of pollution in Oregon's streams.
Right problem. Wrong solution.
If you let Measure 38 pass, the negative economic
impact on our state will be devastating. Because it calls
for fencing in all lands where livestock grazes.
That's a lot of wire, folks.
Family farms can't afford it. Dairy farmers can't
afford it. Livestock ranchers can't afford it. And wildlife
