California postal employees are
enraged at the most recent order of
Postmaster General Burleson that all
but deprives them and their families
of the ballot. Neither the employee
nor any member of his immediate
family is permitted to participate in
politics on pain of dismissal.
The Postmaster-general's order on
this subject reads: "Employees are
accountable for political activity by
persons other than themselves, in
cluding wives and husbands.” '
"This means,” said one of the com
plaining mail carriers, “That if my
wife takes any farther interest in
suffrage or in the woman’s clubs in
which she has been active in working
for suffrage, I will loose my Job if
the powers-that-be find It out I
know of many wives* of postal em-
ployees who have been dolng good
work in politics. They have been
good citizens in every sense of the
word and now they are disenfranch
ised despite the nineteenth amend
ment. The order is typical of the
Burleson tyrannical domination. No
employer of labor in private enter
prise would dare go to the lengths
Burleson has.”

An Appeal To All

Advertising in The Herald is an investment

W.e takt our own medicino

This is an appeal to you to re-
member the girls and the babies dur
ing this coming season, and put up
a little extra fruit, with or without
sugar, for shipment to the Louise
Home, and the Albertina Kerr Nur
sery Home, where we are caring for
abandoned mothers and babes. We
assure you that whatever you can do
in their behalf will be greatly ap
preciated. We would suggest that
you form a club in your town and
ship a barrel of canned fruit or can
ned vegetables. In fact any kind of
farm produce will be acceptable. We
will gladly furnish as many glasses
or Jars as you desire, and prepay all
freight charges.
For shipping instructions address
all 1 correspondence to Gen. Supt. W.
G. MacLaren, 195 Burnside Street.
11000 Creamery Prize
A thousand dollars—$500 for
high scoring butter and $500 for
Cheddar cheese—will be distributed
to creamery product exhibitors at
the state fair. The money will be
divided pro rata on points. Special
diplomas will go to the highest scor
ing products. Outside exhibits will
be received, says W. D. Pine, of O.
A. C., superintendent of the diary
building at the fair, and Oregon pro
ducers are warned that they will
have to hustle to keep the prizes at
home.
Evidence of the growth and pros
perity of the Irrigon section is mani-
fest in the fact that not long since
the people comprising that school
district voted a bonded indebtedness
of $40,000, which sum is to be ex
pended at once in the erection of a
modern school building.
The plans for this new structure
were received by the Morrow County
School Superintendent, Mrs. Shurte
recently for her inspection and ap
proval, says the Heppner Times-
Gazette.
The building is to be of reinforced
concrete construction, and the plan
now is to finish the basement and
first floor complete, and the audi
torium and class rooms on the second
floor will be finished and equipped
later, as the demands of the school
justify. A new site for the structure
has been chosen which is more cen
trally located and the work of con
struction is to be commenced immed
iately.
When completed the Irrigon dis
trict will have one of the very best
school buildings in the county, a
monument to the enterprise and good
Judgment of the people of that com
munity.
Round-Up Prize List
A prize list that in cash and added
trophies is the greatest ever offered,
has been put up for the 1920 Round
Up.
Pendleton’s eleventh annual
presentation, Sept. 23, 24 and 25.

tract the greatest array of perfor
mers in the wild west world.
Added attractions include the
strong possibility of the appearance

day of the show and Pendleton is
asking him to arrange his itinerary
to provide for it.
Faster
relay strings, snappier
young steers, moie experienced and
spectaular cowboys and cowgirls are
promised for the 1920 show. Every
event will be full of ginger and new
worlds records are expected by the
end of the three days.

mobile visitor on his way homeward

reasonable figurés are being listed as
always and plans made to handle
more people than ever before.
