THE GAZETTE'S HOROSCOPE.

The GAZETTE predicts a bright
future for Heppner and Morrow
county in general, and we believe
that this prediction is founded on
good reasons. Morrow county is
a better county than appearances
would indicate.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

The prosperous little town .of
Lexington is looking up and has
commenced to grow with the sd.
vancement Of Morrow county.
Lexington has the advantage of
splendid surrounding agricultural
country which will soon have moro
population, and will make this
place a good point.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

The principal reason for Morrow
county not having any more pop-
ulation is from the fact that people
on the outside don't know anything
about it. The county has never
had any advertising in the East of
Middle West. Nothing has been
sent out to attract the attention of
homeseekeas and they have gone
to other places.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

One of Morrow county's greatest
needs is better roads. The large
territory and small population
makes it impossible to keep in re-
pair so many miles of road by a
few people. But this question
will adjust itself with increase of
population.
Heppner gazette. [volume] (Heppner, Morrow County, Or.) 1892-1912, 1903-01-01

Inc output or the principal pro-
ducts, of the state was greater than
ever before known, and good prices
generally prevailed. The output
from the great forests of Oregon,
heads the list, and the great trees
that have been converted into
lumber, represent more wealth
than any other single product
Local and foreign sales for lumber
and timber amount to 100000.
Livestock comes along next in
line with an output valued at
s9,OOC,0O0. The grain crop fol-
lows a close third with valuation
of almost $S,000,O00. The mineral
output is about $5,000,000. The
hop crop was sold for more than
s4,OOO,OOO. The fish cannery pack
will amount to 100000. Ore
CONS wool was worth almost $3,
100000. The:.fruit crop is valued
at sl,50O,O0O. Dairy products
100000.
In the aggregate the values of
the above principal products of the
state of Oregon would average
over 500 for each man, woman
and child. The entire output of
The state will foot up in the neigh.
'orhood of $40, 100000. {
The three great staples, live {
tock, wheat and wool which con- (
titute more than fifty per cent of
he valuation of the products of
ne state, were produced principal
east of the Cascade mountains. G
that portion Of Oregon known as u
ne Inland Empire, of which Nor o
ow county is a favored section. a
The fact that the principal por- h
on Of over one half of the wealth N
Oregon for the year 1902, was Sc
'oduced in a sparsely settled h'
'untry, is certainly good evidence to
the capabilities of Eastern Ore
N.
The natural conditions that have ah
used us to be prosperous, have ab
so been helped by a wise ad- 81
nistration of affairs in our ma
nal government under the Re.
blican banner. !.
We have also good reasons to n:
ieve that the new year for lIj
egon will bring forth plenty, for lAj
people are encouraged to put III
tn their best efforts to again III
p bountiful harvest. Here in lH
egon we do not fear a crop lk
ure, drouth or the terrors OF a sh
lone, because we always have lN
probably always will be free lE
n such influences and we hardly III
reclate our surroundings of O
ce and plenty. The new year W
ushered in with encouraging 9
'pects. ID

Down IN the sand country along
the Columbia river there are 1OO,-
600 acres of arid lands in Morrow
county. Some day this will be re-
claimed by irrigation and this will
be one of the richest portions of
county.

With the growth Of Morrow
county the GAZETTE will endeavOr
to keep right in the front rank of
the procession. For this year the
GAZETTE hopes to be better paper
than last.

Morrow county needs more
people who are not afraid to get
away from town and get in and
work. There is always demand
for good hands.

Morrow county's greatest draw
back is isolation, but the Oregon
country is coming to the front and
cannot be held back much longer.

a handsome cover in colors and H.

The supreme court of the state
of Washington has decided that
the inheritance tax law passed by
the legislature of that state at the
last session, ia constitutional. It
is very likely that a bill of this
kind will be advocated at the next
session of the Oregon legislature.
The object of the law is to make
wealthy estates, bequests or in
heritances help to bear the burden
OF taxation, thus making all
pay a more equal pro-
portion of taxes, which is right
and just. The Washington law
makes all inheritances and be.
quests subject to tax and also all
lifts of property to take effect after
he death of the donor. The law
provides that the taxes must be
'aid to the state treasurer by the

row, are worth from $50 to $40 pe
acre. Good wheat land in Moro,
: county is selling from Sc to 81
per acre. The only cause for thi
is that Unatifla county has NOR
population and is farther ad
vanced. ANY business man can
see that there is not such a grea
: difference in real land values il
the two counties. If agriculture
land IN Umatilla county is worth
$40 an acre it is worth more thar
$40 an acre in Morrow, for the
soil in this county is undoubtedly
good as proven by the big crops
produced.
AT present there are over 200O
acres of land for every man, wom-
an and child in Morrow county.
This would impress the fact that
this territory is capable Of support
ing a much greater population.
The GAZETTE predicts that in five
years, the present population Of
this county will be more than
double what it is now, and still
there will be plenty of room for
many more people who will prosper
in agricultural pursuits. Within
the next few years there will be
great tide of Western immigration
from the East. The Lewis and
Clark fair of 1905, will do much to
bring Eastern people to Oregon on
account of advertising and cheap
rates. OregoD's popula-
ion will be greatly increased, and
Morrow county ought to haye her
hare.
Morrow county's natural re-
ources will not lie dormant very {
luch longer. In fact there has
cen a great change within the c
asst year. New people are coming Q
] and land values have increased G
lore rapidly than in any other
ear in the history of the county. 4
With the bright outlook for the a
'unty in general, Heppner, the N
'unty seat and principal town ii
lll:grow and prosper, and ought p
increase in population with the

Morrow county's recently dis .
vered coal measures will add th
eatly to the wealth and develop TO

obably be of greater benefit to O'
eppner than to any other town, IA
ing to the fact that Heppner is cy
'ated near the coal field. 1t is an
mated that it will require from frt
to 1900 men to operate the ap

Gen. Daily lived to be ninety
eight years of age. How dearly
he loved to reminisse! Often did
he entertain his comrades of the
society known as Sons of Veterans
of the War of 1912 with forefath-
ers' yarns. One night after he
had told about a score, young
man arose to say: General l amt
got much experience to tell of, but
I've got grandpop's old flint-the
one he toted through the war Of
1912. The old man lived to bs
ninety -four, general, md I'm hold
in on to the old flint; and l don't
care whether school keeps or not.
Put her on rail fence to home
one day-didn't know how many
charges were in her and shot hef
off," "Any rails lefti" asked the
adjutant. "Dunno," replied the
grandson. Didn't know nothin'
for two days" The laugh that
followed might have been heard in
the cemetery. People are never
tired of proving the efficiency Of
these old flints.-New York Press,
