CITY TO PAY
FULL REBATE
believing tliey all should receive a
square deal." tlie city council Won
day ni(ht voted to return the former
liquor dealer the full amount of li
ceune rebate due them ou January 1.
when the prohibition order went into
fruect in Hood Hiver.
P. K Fonts had been granted judg
ment in the circuit court for if'iOti.
This license had gone iuto effect last
Juno, a month hofore the other three,
ihe council at a previous meeting
had allowed this amount in full, but
had decided to give the other saloon
nieu but ?250, figuring the rebate
rrom tne time of actuul closing In
February. C. K. Hayward was pres
ent Monday night, and stated that
wnue outers had aeked for six months
interest on the rebate, he wanted only
what was due him ou January 1, when
the order of the county court made
liis license null and void.
"Of course we kept opeu after the
closing order, but we paid a flue for
that," remarked Mr. Hayward. "All
1 ask is what was due me when my
license was revoked on January 1.
You gave one man his rebate in full
and 1 believe uiv money was as good
then as when paid iuto the city a year
ago. l don't ask for any interest.
merely what was due me Jauuurv 1. "
Councilman Mayes believed the city
should pay Mr. Hayward what was
rightfully due him. and the other men
the same. McDonald was averse to
granting a rebate on the month and
seven days when the saloons were
open, hut Mr. Mayes motion to pay
the former liquor men their rebate in
lull received a second from Mr. Moe,
and was carried with no opposition.
Early in the session a communica
tion was read from Huntington &
Wilson, attorneys for .'.award liurlin
game, who asked for the f0 the city
had received for sale of his horse
taken up some time ago and sold from
tho city pound. The attorneys point
ed out glaring defects in the notice of
sale as posted by the city marshal.
and declared that Mr. liurlingame
would bring suit against the city for
the full value of the horse unless the
$r0 were returned.
Councilman McDonald was of the
opinion that Burlingame knew where
the hoi mi was, and that it was let out
of a pasture near this city with the
express purpose of making trouble for
the town authorities. He moved,
though, that a warrant be drawn to
refund Mr, liurlingame tho amount
received for sale of the horse. Mar
shal Olinger stated that all costs in
the matter bad been paid from his
owu pocket
A petition praying for the opening
of Lincoln street was read by the re
corder and passed upon by the coun
cil. Lincoln street connects State
street and Sherman avenue on the line
of Winans addition and the plat of
Hood Kive proper. Several outbuild
ings on the Smith property extend
into this street. The city council has
several timos issued the order for
their removal, but no attention has
been paid to the matter by the prop
erty holder, other than to say ho will
bring suit for a retention of tho land.
Monday night the marshal was once
more instructed to inform the proper
ty holder that tho buildings must be
removed. If the order is not complied
with, tin city mutt remove the ob
structions and assess costs to Mr.
Smith.
City Surveyor John Lelaud Hender
son was present at the meeting and
explained that the survey for the plat
of Winans addition and that of the
original town site of the city of Hood
liiver did not run parallel, which
made an overlapping of the lots in
the two additions 1'he Townsite Co.
some time ago guvo up a row of lots
on the east side of their line for use
as a street. The same had been done
in the Winans addition, and Mr. Hen
derson believed tho city could legally
remove tho obstructions in Lincoln
street as prayed for in the petition.
Councilman liailey, reporting for
tho health committee, stated that Dr.
Jenkins had complained of a cesspool
on C street overflowing. Attorney
Henderson hImi remarkod that a cess
pool ou his property was alwaj 8 over
flowing. He had dug several of them,
but it was impossible to go far in the
cement gravel which underlies the
lauds of the city. The overflow from
the kitchen sink now enters the drain
in the street, says Mr. Henderson.
He can't help this, but says be places
lime in the ditch every few days to
alleviate the evil odors. Attorney
Heudreson added that the health of
the city demanded that sewers bo con
structed on the main streets of the
city.
To this Councilman McDonald re
plied that he didn't know what the
city could do with sewers without
water. "The people don't seem to
want the water," he added.
There was one bid for the pest house
property. This was from Mr. Tift ol
Portland, who offered tf'iW. The prop
erty C0ft SOUO, and the offer was re
jected. This piece of proporty con
sists of the dwelling house erected by
John Huskirk and ten lots, 25x120.
Claims against the city were audit
ed by the linauce committee and or
dered paid, as follows :
Haynes & Co., hardware, $4.15;
liradley, printing ballots, H; Glacier,
printing ordinances and notices, $11;
judgos and clerks of city election,
$10; Oanger Jit Hartley, hauling gravel
and six teams on Hre engine, $12.
Present at the council meeting:
Mayor lilowers, Recorder Nickelseu,
Councilman liailey, Mayes, Moe and
McDonald; Marshal dinger.
Cuban Diarrhoea.
U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what
this disease is, and that ordinary rem
edies have little more piled than so
much water. Cuban diarrhoea is al
most as severe and dangerous as a mild
attack of cholera. There is one remedy,
however, that can always be depended
upon as will be seen by the following
cerliticate ft'imi Mrs. Minnie Jacobs of
Houston, Texas: "I hereby certify
that Chanilierlain's Colic, Cholera anrl
Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband
of a severe attack of Cuban diarrhoea,
which he brought home from Culm.
We had several doctors but they did
him no good. One bottle of this reme
dy cured him, as our neighbors will
testify. I tliniik tiod for so valuable a
medicine." For sale by Williams'

Heavy T radio on Southern Pacific.
Junction City Times.
The trains on the Southern Pacific are
heavy and everj- one of the passenger
trains passing through this city is
crowded, the travel being principally in
connection with the exposition. All the
passenger conductors have helpers, train
agents assisting in handling the tickets
and caring for the passengers. These
train agents to a great extent are pass
enger brakemen who have been pro
moted to this work, while some of them
are former passenger conductors who
have been oft duty for some time. All
the day trains, even the Eugene local
now have these train agents and they
tind enough to do. Most of the trains
now run with two engines and often
they are compelled to run in two or more
sections to accommodate the heavy
tratlic.
Lightning Strikes Near Dufur.
Hood River people will remember
the beautiful electrical display Sun
day night a week ago, when sheets of

here, and only occasionally slight
peals of thunder, at Dufur there was

Rushing the Grain Harvest.
This week's crop Bulletin for Ore
gon says :
The week, like the two preceding
ones, was warm and dry. These con
ditions were excellent for harvesting
grain, and this work was pushed along
with unusual rapidity, rail wheat
and barley yields continue good, both
in quantity aud quality, but spring
wheat is not coming up to expecta
tions, especially in the Williamette
valley, where rust and the aphides
wore so plentiful earlier in the season.
The straw of spring wheat aud oats
was heavy aud the heads, as a rule, of
average size, but the berry in many
cases is shriveled, which accounts for
the shortiige.
Pasturugo is very shoit in the val
leys, but it continues fairly good in
the mountain ranges, aud stock keeps
it uuusually good condition. All
streams are falling and the water sup
ply for irrigation is getting scarce.
Sugar beets, Held onions aud early
potatoes are making good advance
ment, but late potatoes are at a stand
still aud ueed rain badly. Corn is
extra good. Hops show imrovemeut
and tho lice have nearly all disap
peared, but growers generally expect
yields below the averge, and also a re
turn of lice with the advent of favor
able weather for their propagation.
1'iHrly apples are small aud the yields
are below the average. Peaches are
being marketed and the crop is better
than expected. The dry weather is
causing prunes and plums to drop
more than usual at this season of the
year.

BIG TOMATO CROP
AT WHITE SALMON
By a Staff Correspondent.
WhiU Salmon, Wash., Aug. 9. -The
tomato crop this year will be the larg
est in the history of the valley. Last
year It waa a record breaker, but this
year will eclipse auy yield ever pro
duced here. S. C. Ziegler, who has
about one acre, will market over 40
tons. The price has held up flue.
Adams fc Brenneman wl J be about the
largest shippers. They have been
marketing over one hundred crates
per day. William Rankin on the War
ner farm and Mr. Henderson have
been heavy shippers a has also Cole
man & Moore on the Byrkett farm.
The harvest this year will last about
two mouths in some of the patohes.
It could be made to last longer, but
the price at the end of the market
would be small, making it impossible
for the shippers and growers at this
point to compete with the home mar
ket, owing to the transportation rates.
with big berry crop atd a mam
moth tomato crop iu the valley, it is
no wonder that the ranchers do not
want any road to pass along destroy
ing the valuable tracts. Said Mr.
Ziegler: "This railroad talk really
does give me a great deal of concern,
and I would like to see it held off for
at least two years; then they can have
the ranch and I will go in the apple
growing business." E, L. C.
That Hood River Spirit.
The Heppner Gazette oopleg the
Portland Journal's editorian on the
Hood River berry crop and then adds:
Good for Hood River. Such reports
are gratifying to the people of the
whole state of Oregon. The fact that
Hood River has sold $200, 000 worth of
strawberries and will have a good ap
ple crop will be known all over the
country, and why? Simply because
the people there are enterprising aud
proud of their productive valley aud
are lettiug the outside world know all
about it. The couseqeuces are that
the Hood River valley is becoming
thickly populated and the town of
Hood River is growing and prosper
ous. The Hood River spirit comes out
with an interesting story. They pin
it on the lapels of their coats. They
put it on banners. They placard
every oar that leaves the town. They
get In the newspapers. The people
pull together. tiler enterprise aud
the publicity that they give to their
prosperity impresses the stranger.
A little comparason might make
Heppner people think a little. The
Hood River valley today probably has
as much population as the eutire
county of Morrow. Ihe town of Hood
River has at least oue-thiid popula
tion greater than Heppner.
Heppner this season has shipped oat
and sold 9500.000 worth of wool. Who
saw a single car plaoarded telling any
thing about it? On the long trip east
how many people knew anything
about these cars? Heppner wocl
brought $.'100,000 more than Hood
River strawberries and wool money is
just as good as strawberry money.
We shipped 17i.000 woith of sheep.
How many beard about this, not to
say anything about our horses aud
cattle which run into the thousands?
Then we have the advantage of a
double shot, the same as Hood River.
Wnue Hood Kiver is marketing her
big apple orop this fall we will lie sell
ing a wheat crop that will make the
fruit value insignificant ludeed.
How will Hood Kiver s bank depos
its if the town is larger, compare with
Heppner. Heppner has two strong
banks. The last sworn statement of
the First National showed deposits of
almost $700,000.
We need a color bearer. We ought
to be proud of our town. This would
make other people proud of us. What
is the matter with Heppner anyway?
Prosperity is sticking out in every

Small Crop, Hut Excellent (JmlltT
W. C. Michael, a fruit and produce
commission broker of New York,
while at Boise, Idaho, said to a news-
fiapei representative: "I am just Hu
shing an extended trip over the fruit
I n - r v.- ...... i i , w, vvu.j,
California, Oregon, Washiutgon, and
Idaho. In each of these states I found
pretty much the same conditions pre
vailinga light crop, but of extra
good quality.
' The unusual spring served to no
tify orchardists that the crop was to
be short, and the raisers have taken
more than ordinary care of what is
being produced, seems to be the most
reasonable explanation," be contin
ued. "While the crop in Idaho is much
below the average, my judgement is
that the raisers will receive more
money than for a number of years,
on account of the high prices that
will be obtained. Conditions resem
ble those of 1897, when a record for
top prices was made that is apt to be
broken before the close of this sea
son. "This condition is always a satis
factory one, for the raisers and deal
ers, because a constantly strengthened
market means a ready sale of every
thing shipped, at prioes equal to or
in excess or expectations."
Just What Everyone Should Do.
Mr. J. T. Barber of Irwinville. Ga..
always keeps a bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera aud Diarrhoea Remedy
at hand ready for Instant use. At
tacks of colic, cholera morbus and diar
rhoea come ou so suddenly that there
is no time to bunt a doctor or go to the
store for mediciue. Mr. Barber says:
"I have tried Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy which
is one or tne uest remedies 1 ever saw.
I keep a bottle of it in mv room as I
have bad several attacks of colic and it
has proved to be the best medicine I
ever used." Sold by Williams' Phar
macy.
A Portage Boad, But no Boats.
Moro Observer.
At the risk of being run out of busi
ness the Pendleton Tribune inquires,
"How much more will the f aimers
get for tbeir wheat this year because
the portage road is in operation? Will
the freight rates be reduced? will
there be boats on the river to carry
the wheat to tide water? Wheat should
be worth five cents a bushel more but
will it?" Immediate results cannot
be expected but the time for carrying
wheat to market is almost here and
reduction in freight rates should be
demanded or means taken to secure
lower rates through the water way.
Sprained Ankle, Stiff Seek, Lame
Shoulder.
These are three common ailments for
which which Chamberlain's Pain Balm
ia especially valuable. If promptly
applied it will save you time, money
and suffering when troubled with any
one of these ailment. For aale by
Williams roarmacy.
