MORROW COUNTY'S GOOD
FORTUNE.

ne news lIOLI lH6 MIL lIOW Couu"
ty coal fields this week is the cause
of rejoicing among Morrow county
people. While the field has shown
all the time the phenomena assoc
lated with all first class coal fields,
and the prospects have shown
marked and gradual Improvement
from the grass roots, snd expert
opinion has been positive as to the
final results, still, the old adage
that a bird in the hand is worth
two in the bush has pervaded the
minds Of many.
The big strike this week IN tun-
mel No. 5, where the mi ers are
now penetrating six foot measure
of pure and clean bituminous coal,
has removed all apprehensions of
failure. The disturbed crust over
lying the coal seam through which
the coal has blossomed has been
passed through and the true meas
ure undisturbed has been discOv-
cred.
As to the existence of the field
the drill records have been verified.
1t is not now q prospect with good
indications or what might be. but
a mine with a measure of high
quality coal in sight.
1t is bituminous coal of pre-
cisely the quality needed for the
big market and great demand that
will follow. The location and ac-
cessibility of the field is such as
will Immediately attract the atten-
ton of capital.
AS to disposition of the property
at this time is only a matter of
conjecture. One thing is certain
The Morrow county coal fields will
be worked III the not far distant
future, To transport this coal it
will be necessary to have a rail
road and the most feasible route
is from Heppner up Willow creek
a distance of only 2l miles with an
easy grade and not a tunnel to be
constructed.
Nothing could have a greater
tendency to promote the welfare
of Morrow county than the devel-
opment and operation of extensive
coal mines within her borders.
Our disadvantages of isolation
will be greatly eliminated. Our
vast territory capable of support
ing so many more people will fur
nish homes for people who through
the advertising that the coal mines
will give US, will come here to
take advantage of the opportuni-
ties offered and our great resources
will soon respond to the hand of
capital and enterprise.
The development of these coal
fields will mark an epoch in the
history of this portion Of the In
land Empire. 1t will help every
body.
The announcement Of this dis
covery of coal will be looked to
with great interest by Portland,
the commercial center of Oregon.
The discovery Of coal in the Col
umbia river basin with such an
easy haul to the metropolis is
matter af importance, for Port
lands increasing ocean commerce
demands a greater fuel supply
than obtained under present con-
ditions.
1t certainly indicates a bright
future for Heppner, and is a mat
ter over which we have good cause
for rejoicing.

only waiting for irrigation to bring
forth abundant crops and add
wealth to the country, as we'll as
to make homes for a great many
people. To accomplish anything,
there must be start. The irri-
CATION convention sounds the key
note and opens the way for organ
ization and agitation that will i'm
press the need and advantages to
be derived from irrigation, let it
come any way possible. The for
nation of state irrigation associ-
alton is oppertune. Other semi
arid states have organizations that
are aiding irrigation. 1t is esti-
mated that Morrow county alone
has 100000 acres of arid lands.
Most of this is along the Columbia
river. This land now has the ap-
pearance of great waste or
desert. With the introduction of
water this would become one of
the great fruit districts of the
Northwest, especially for early
varieties. With irrigation this
land would grow almost anything.
On this great question, friendly
feeling should be cultivated in all
sections in order that there may
be hearty cooperation by all
classes.

If 100000 is appropriated for
the Lewis and Clark fair, the Ore
gonian has figured out what it will
cost the farmers as follows: Gore
gon farmers will pay about 2S.4
per cent of the Lewis and Clark
appropriation. The Exposition
will, therefore, cost them Sl42 900,
or $1,000 in each of the years
1904 and 1905. In Oregon are,
approximately, 58,49O people en-
gagged IN agriculture, as calculated
on the basis Of 1900 census statis-
ties. The per capita tax for farm
ers will, therefore, be 81 43, or
S1219 per year, or about one-third
of l cent per day. The true vaIu-
alton of farm property in Oregon
in 1900 was 2,70l,2 In pay
ing $4,000 for the Fair, farmers
will contribute less than tenth
of l per cent Of their capital.

DAIRY NOTES.

Good butter should be solid from the
time it is put upon the table.
Any excitement in the dairy cow
tends to lessen the flow of milk.
Failing to get all the buttermilk out
causes butter to become rancid soon.
TO obtain the best results in churning
the cream should be only slightly sour.
In winter the cream should be warm.
ed up to about SO degrees before put-
ting In the churn.
One advantage in brine sailing 10
that it almost entirely avoids streaked
or mottled butter.
, The milk should always be skinned
while sweet and the cream then allow
ed to turn slightly sour.
F, Sometimes butter has white specks
distributed through it. This is caused
by oversourness in the cream.
In butter making next to controlling
the temperature Is to churn often while
the cream is in good condition.
With temperature under control and
,churning done at the right time the
butter will become solid and be easily
handled.
On the farm to make the most out OF
the milk and butter some Of the cows
should be bred to come fresh in the
spring and some in the fall.-St. Louii

out again, da1ed and bewildered. The
wind was now grown fierce, and the
rain was driving before 1t, and the tu-
multi Of the night was so great that 1;

a shadow, followed by her side. dumb
with the spell Of wonder and fear up
on me, and into the great bowling
black pit of the night we went forth,
and, getting to the Abbeyfont road, we
turned toward Pinlawn, and when we
had como to the hollow Of the glen
there into the pitch black depth Of
midnight we turned and began to toll
up the winding path toward st. Cuth-
bert's cairn, and knew we were max.
Ing our way toward Tibbie's cottage.
Ali, but there was enough to strike
terror into the soul Of any mortal In
this journey up the glen, and, as for
myself, I think there was no moment
when 1 ceased from trembling as
followed this crooked old woman
through the deep. dark murk.
At times I was conscious Of some OBJ
ject moving with me, a blacker shad-
ow than the shadows around me. and
again would feel the hutteriDg Of her
cloak as 1t touched me. but no word
passed between us, for the voices Of
the night forbade 1t, and only at times
was l certain that she was still the
guide to my steps, and that was when
she stopped and put forth her palsy
shaken hand to touch me.
"Where was I gofngT I asked my
self. The answer set me shivering.
ITO have speech with my lady Of Glen

the living? That could not be, for Sir
Gilbert had seen her thrust through
with n mortal stab ON that terrible day
at Versailles, and my masters sorrows

that bloody deed. Had not Tibbie her

fearsome question, "Can the deid no.

What could 1t mean? What devilish

this hag Of Satan?
Once I stopped and was about to
turn back and fee from her in the
darkness, but remembered the words

1t was long and dreary journey We

we were near our journeys end, FOL
the gleam before us was from the win

When we had come as far as th'

Vienna, Jan Inquiries made

made by Lord Cranborne, the British

relations Of Austria with Spain. the
queen regent being an archduchess OF
Austria, led Austria before the decla-

Great Britain was at first disposed to
sign the proposed note, but after g
confidential report from Washington,
declined either to sign such note

or to take any further steps. After

TAFT WANTS SMALL TARIFF.
Wants Barely Enough Revenue 80
Meet Expenses.

San Francisco, Jan. 24.-Referring
to tue Philippine tariff IN speech be-
fore the Union League club prior to
his departure for the east, Gov. w. II.
Taft is reported to have said: II know
from reading your papers and talking
with some Of your merchants that you
are anxious to have free trade be-
tween the Philippines and America. In
many respects that would be an admir-
able arrangement. II it were possible
to run the government of the Philip
pines without the indirect taxation in-
volved in levying customs duties, it
would crafty the commission very
much if congress would take off al
together the tariff imposed by the
Dingley bill. All we desire is to have
money enough to run good govern
ment. My view is that as soon as
trade is established and avenues open
ed, small tariff will form very
slight obstacle to the course of bust
ness between the Philippines and Cal
ifornia.
