interest in this county took place
last Monday morning at the
home of the brides parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. H. N. Anderson,

Death Of Mrs. S. A. Maddox

Sarah Ann Murphy wins born in Gull
phie, Canada, September 18th, 1910.
At an early age she moved to Detroit,
Mich, where she was married in 1876
to John Maddox. Together they
came to Heppner, 0re., in 1877, where
they lived only short time. They
then moved to Thirty-mile where they
engaged in ranching. Later they took
charge of the Condor Hotel, which was
at that time the leading hostelry of
this section of the country. Mr.. Mad
dock died in 1902 at the age of GA years.
Mrs. Maddox then took charge of the
hotel which was run by the help of her
daughters and gave the public excel
lent service. Mrs. Maddox was al
ways in good health. She moved to
Portland about year ago and made
her home with her daughter, Mrs. Ed
wards. She was sick only a short
time with pneumonia and died Monday
morning at 1915. The news of her
illness brought her children to her bed
side. She remained conscious to the
end, and though fully aware that her
life was near its close, she manifested
no dread but bravely awaited the term
ination of the struggle. From that
closing scene viii come "a still small
voice" and as the years go by it will
remind them of her Christian hope and
trust, and tell them of ga peace that
passeth human understanding" The
f neral was held from the Catholic
Church Wednesday morning, Father
o'Rourke delivering a beautiful ser
mon, after which the body was laid to
rest in the Catholic cemetery.
The children, Mrs. Louella Vain of
Portland, Mrs. Fred Edwards Portland
Mrs. DR.. Wood eff Condor and Frank
of Thirty mile, were all present at the
funeral. Thus passeth from our sight
one of the most useful citizens Gillian
County ever had and great is the sor-
row felt for the bereaved relatives.
Deceased was lady of strong Christ
ian character, patient, loving and self
sacrificing. What more can be said?

will be found the truest and

question. and your citizens cad
do no better than to make q study

This Is the time for broad

The most practical suggestion

not allow the various depart

SAYE:R'S VISIT
TO C0NOON

cOulu feaeh ana OIL many large
and small land owners Of the
county, have arrived at the
conclusion that there never was
more opportune time than the
present for the getting together
of its citizens to advertise TO the
world the resources and advan-
tages of Gillian County. II is
plain to be seen that all recog-
nize that a county that is so rich
in its resources and one that has
prospects, which no other county
can surpass. is standing still
because Of the lack of public
spirit among its citizens. AS a
good many deem it best to put
off dehnate action in the matter
of reorganization for few
weeks. until such time as the
farmers are not so busy. and il
will take a little time to plan
fully so that the entire county,
farmers, townspeople and all,
may take part in whatever is
done, think il best to abide by
the almost unanimous advice
and suggestions offered. | shall
hope therefore to come back a
little latter to see the work COM
pleted thatI began last Saturday.
There is absolutely noreason why
Gillian County should not take
the lead in the prosperity that
will surely come to q united and
well advertised Eastern Oregon.
There is no cheaper land in the
state and no part of the state
that offers better opportunities
for development. A united cit
izenship and n generous civic
spirit will bring all this about.
Among all those 1 interviewed, |
did not find a dissenting voice to
the truth that the opportunities
are good here for the man of
small means and that the slogan
of the Oregon Development
League, more People on the
farms" is the only question at
issue in Gillian County. All can
unite on this and all do unite in
this sentiment.
OF course there is a great deal
said about the breaking up Of
the large holdings of land.
There is no doubt of the neces-
sity of that. But there is no
need of making any war on any
one on this account or, at the
7ersesnt time, even using energy
q nwhere to bring this about.
There already are a number of
small tracts for sale that pros
pective settlers can get hold of
at a reasonable figure. / am
informed, if the coming farmer
of the small tract is shown how
to make the small tract success
sful by diversified farming, the
large tract will have to be SUBJ
divided for there will he a rise
in the price Of land that will re-
act on the holder of the large
acreage and his necessarily
skimming methods of farming.
It. will be the battle between the
solid, substantial, progressive
farmer of small holdings and his
steady income and the speculat-
ing worker of the large tract,
who hopes to make a pot Of mon
ey in one or two crops and get
away with 1t to live elsewhere.
The battle may be a slow one,
but victory is as sure as the run
ming down hill of water. The
time for things to come to a
show down between the two is
fast approaching. 1t can be
most rapidly brought about by
rseducating the farmers of the
community to their advantages
in this respect-by demonstrate
ion or model farms or other

Costs MONEY TO BUILD TOWN
But Spending it This Way creat.s

ago before the Denver chamber Of

on town improvement. said:
The real good things in life do not
come without effort. 1t costs money to
build town. but money wisely spent
for that purpose is wealth creator;
1t pays q higher rate Of interest than
any other investment. There is a of
ference between the hardships of the
plains and the comforts Of a well
governed town. You would not be
without these conveniences for many
times their cost. The people of Den
yer pay in taxes to conduct their city
government about cents each per
day. This amount is so distributed
that over three-fourths of our popula-
ton pay an average of less than q
cent per day. Few stop to consider the
protection. amuscments and comforts IS
they receive in return for this pay

opportunity. There are opportunities
for every one who is able 10 convince
the world by his industry that he is

There has never been time when
there was not an opportunity for every
man who was willing to take atlvan-
tage OF it. and the opportunity of do
Ing good business never WAS better
than at the present time. said J. c

thing to do is to take advantage o.
this opportunity and make every eff
fort in getting every dollars worth of
business that you can at profit.
