ing with his proposition, she sudden
ly switched over to the American
Book Company side and accused me
of trying to influence her. That was
last May when she resigned.
"Since that time / have been de-
iberately been trying to line up
enough votes to beat her and am
proud of the fact that L did" said
Harding.
Miss Haley's speech was dramatic.
She opened by reading from Chi
cago Association of Commerce bulle-
tin speech wherein John D. Shoop,
successor of Mrs. Young, declared
himself as being proud to belong to
that great body on account of what
they stood for
"And it was the Association of
Commerce which was behind the
Cooley vocational bill that proposed
making scabberies of the public
schools said Miss Haley. And a
great roar of indignation swept over
the Federation.
Il want to tell you a story that
might show where John Harding
stood. William Rothmann, the real
villain of the school board, was try
ing to organize a number of princi-
pals and teachers that would support
him and the measures Big Business
stood for 1t was admittedly scab

before the legislative committee,
John Harding, chairman of the COM

members of the scab organization. l

fessed union man, would ask me to

"The bill was approved by the
meeting. After the meeting went
up to Harding and reproached him
for it. Ipredicted that it would never
go through. He smiled complacent-
ly. 20, yes it will, % he said, you and
your followers have Endorsed it."
And this lie was scattered broadcast.
"Then went to Harding and ask
ed him to correct the wrong done; to
give me letter admitting that the
teachers did not approve the bill. He
hemmed and hawed at first. We kept
after him day and night for almost
a week. He refused and chung to

CROP CONDITIONS
HAVE IMPROVED
Recent Rains Over North
west Helped Greatly
Say Reports.

Timely rainfalls over the DRYER Sec
tions of the northwest have done much
to revive crops that had begun to look
rather sick and although the fall grain
in this section will not be aided to
any great extent the spring grain will
be helped quite benefcially. Hot
days a few weeks ago burned the grain
to some extent but the outlook on the
whole is favorable. Reports from
all over the northwest are good and
the Eastern Oregon outlook in general
is favorable to a bumper production.
Reports from over various sections of
Eastern Oregon give some indication
of the prospects.
North Powder General outlook is
at present for an average crop for all
cereals.
Enterprise General crop conditions
are good, as rains have given all cTous
a good start. Prospects all along the
line are above the average.
The Dalles- General conditions
quite good, but there are many weeds
in some fields. Recent rains have
been a benefit of Importance.
Athena-Warm weather and rain
has been ideal for wheat. Acreage is
sOmewha less than last year.
Freewater-Cr Crops have been helped
bv recent rains: some grain is report
ed down on account of heavy showers.
Wallowa-C Condition of winter
wheat crop in this section never bet
ter spring wheat fair, barley good
and hay good.
Baker While crops are very late,
the outlook is rather good.
Weston Wheat crop conditions are
fully up to the average. Prospects
are for a full crop.
Union-SprinR wheat is late: com
plants of wire worm in winter wheat;
rainfall has been favorable.
Pendleton- Wheat crop outlook is
much more hopeful in the light land
section since the recent rains, al
though it is question if some dam
age has not been done to fall wheat
in the heavy land section.
Haines- Winter and spring wheat,
oats and braley show a condition of
100 per cent, with hay 95 per cent.
Heppner Winter wheat will he two
thirds of average crop, with barley
three quarters crop and hay an average
production Late rains may elevate
this condition slightly.
Ione-Recent rains have been of
much benefit to wheat in this section.
Condon-Ihe outlook for the wheat
crop is today the most hopeful of the
season Rains have been a godsend
to the crops.
Grass VaIlev-Late rains have done
more good to the wheat IN this section

BIG CELEBRATION
SUCCESSFUL EVENT
lone Gives Three Days of
Joy and Recreation and
Large Crowds Attend
Each Day.

1t is quite an undertaking for q
small town to get up a celebration
extending over three days, and to
successfully carry out such program
requires a lot of work. and the giving
up of no small amount of time, to-
gether with the expenditure of cousid-
erable cash.
lone attempted such feat, and
carried it out we'll in her three days
celebration, beginning on Thursday
last and closing Saturday night.
They had made preparations for
big crowd and in this we're not dis
appointed. Especially was this the
case on the 4th. A crowd estimated
at 5000 people gathered on that day,
and the capacity of the little city
was considerably strsigned to take care
of them. The day previous, and the
day following the crowds were not so
large but there was good attendance
nevertheless, and the people seemed
we'll pleased with the entertainment.
1t was not our pleasure to attend any
but the one day. The train going
down from Heppner on the 4th carried
about 400 people. ana many others
had gone by autos and private convey
ances. Those going by train were
little late for the parade but reched
there in time for the program at the
grand stand and to take in the exercises
of the forenoon.
Music by the band, patriotic sing
ing BY chorous and male qurtette,
declmations and a splendid oiation
suited to the occasion by Rev. Winey,
pastor of the Congregational church,
constituted the program at the grand
stand. The amusements for the three
days consisted of various stunts, prin-
cipally foot racing and horse racing
and ball games between the lone and
Heppner ball teams. These latter
we're all won by the Heppner team
who carried off the purses amounting
in total to $3.50. We we're not able to
get the results of the various races
Much disappointment was expressed by
the visitors because of the failure on
the part of the amusement committee
to null off the aeroplane flights advre-
tised. This was unfortunate but the
committee were in no way to blame
as they fully expected to have this
feature and the party contracted with
disappointed them when it was too
late to make other arrangements.
The ball games were not up to the
standard. yet they were interesting,
and had the teams been more evealY
matched this feature of the daily pro
gram would have been more enthusiast
ically received.
However, as stated in the beginning
it is a big undertaking to give three
davs' celebration and keep everything
moving up with snap and enthusiasm.
and on the whole our neigb0ring CITY
did we'll, her celebration was sue
cess, and our country's natal day was
properly and fittinRly observed.
Evrevthing passed off quietly and
orderly, and the large crowds were
handled in a manner that would do
credit to a place much larger than
lone.

HEPPNER WALLOPS
CONDOR IS TO 4
Local Boys Finish Season
With One Sided Game
Last Sunday.
Heppner 1871
Cnndon a.

HeDpner IL
Condor
1t took three Condor pitchers to
make Heppner's side of the score
board loom up SO strong. In cloud
of dust that was binding to PLAYERS
an fans alike, the two teams met in
the final clash of the season which
resulted in a complete victory for
Heppner. This day was anything but
baseball day, but Morrow county
people had journeyed over to the Gill
liam county seat to see some baseball
and tbev were not to be disappointed
The wind almost blew gale, and the
dust was so bad that at several periods
in the game time had to be called
until the atmosphere cleared enough
for the players to see the ball. The
disadvantage was mutual. however,
and both teams made the best of the
situation.
MILESTONE went into the box for
Condor in the initial chapter He
held the visitors down to close hits
and was backed very nicely by his
team. Condor at the bat started off
very similar to the game of a week
ago, Heppner suffering little blow
up and allowing the opponents score
in the first inning Heppner failed
to score in the second and Condor
tailed twice. In the third both teams
failed to score and it looked ike the
game might tighten up and remain
that way, but in the third the Hepp-
nerites began to find their batting eye
and from that time on the dust had
nothing further to do with loosing the
ball for those fellows lust landed on
it for everything from little bunRle
to three bagger.
Feeling that his Nanny had been
caught, Whetstone retired at the end
of the third, just after Mavs had
landed on hm for three-bagger, and
Al Co son, erstwhile Coast Lacquer.
succeeded him. Had al known what
was in store for him he most likely
would have left Condor on the morn
ing train. Sperry was the first man
up and after chasing the hens around
the back side of the lot for a while,
smashed out a twO-base hit This
class of average making continued
until the eighth, when Condor thot to
save herself from further slaughter by
putting in her one big doll, Jack. He
succeeded in putting little check on
the base running. but the clutch didn t
work fast enough and Heppner slid in
two more SC res, making grand total
of thirteen. Condor also ran in one
more score in the eighth.
Garrett in the box for HepDner held
the Condor team down to six hits
Heppner got twelve safe hits off the
combined pitching staff of their op-
ponent Condor fans wildly pro-
claimed a blowup by the Heppner
pitcher, but the willy pitcher was not
there for that purpose. He kept a
cool head in the tightest pinohes and
pulled himself out of bad holes with
apparent ease. After the third inning
he had the support of one of the best
teams that ever donned Heppner suits
and although the dust prevented the
teams from doing their best, there was
some good ball played
NOTES ON GAME.
CondOn's team work was marked by
a continual shifting of players, but
they couldn't break mp Heppner' win
ming streak. Heppner's lineup re-
mained practically the same from start
to finish.
The lack Of beefing and rag chew

ing was very evident, Umpire john
son was quick and firm in his decisions
and aside from a little disspDroval
from the Condor people there was very
little complaint. He certainly left
no opening for disappointed player
TO make a punching bag out OF his
head,
Heppner people are loud in their
praises for the excellent train service
and feel that the railroad company is
entitled to a vote of thanks.
Joe Wilkins lost another hat in Sun
days game. 1t went the wind route j.
however. Joe is making no talk OF
what he did to Condor.
Garrett struck out nineteen men
his opponents thirteen.
Condor made no additional charge
for the grandstand, notwithstanding
the fact that the crowd was one OF
the largest of the whole season.
