Writ OF Appeal Allowed Mary S. Hop

Toni, White.

The judges of the Supreme Court OF
Appeals were not on the bench yester-
day, but transacted business In cham
bors. An appeal was allowed in n case
which involves the validity OF the race
segregation ordinance OF the city OF
Richmond
The petitioners are Mary S. Hopkins
and Amcdo Toni, the woman colored
and the man white. They were found
guilty of violating the segregation
ordinance in the Hastings Court, and
We're fined 500 each.
The petitioners assign error by tho
court in overruling their respective
motions to quash tho summonses
against them and dismiss the prosecu-
ton and in the Judgment Of the court
in finding them guilty. They allege
that the ordinance liz unconstitutional.
They contend that the ordinance is un-
constitutional because 1t $50 operates
upon tho person, as we'll ns upon the
property rights OF the petitioners. as
to deprive them OF their personal
liberty. as well as the right to reside
In residence OF their own choosing"
and because tho ordinance fails to
afford protection to persons who may
| have acquired tho right to occupy ms
residence any building acquired by

Work Started on Ritter Road.

Forest Supervisor Cryder reports
that work on this end of the Hepp-
ner-Ritter road has started. Owing
to the limited amount Of money au-
thorized for this project it will not be
able to complete the road this sea-
son, but the work done will be so
placed that it will be possible, by
using the old road together with
parts of the new road, to obtain a
through and passable route to the
south line of the Umatilla National
Forest.
1t is understood that the stretch
of road between the Forest line and
the John Day river will be built by
the citizens of Heppner, in time for
fall travel. The entire route of this
road will be surveyed and placed on
grade so that when the unfinished
portions are built they can be readily
joined with the part already com.
pleted. When the road is entirely
completed it will afford an excellen,
low grade route to and from the
John Day river.

Thresher Burns.

By the explosion of smut in the
threshing machine of H. c.. Citizens,
at work on the farm of Jess Hall last
Thursday, the machine was totally
destroyed. By hard work the gas
oline engine attached to the machine
was saved. This was done by throw
ing dust on the flames, and it looked
for short time as though the saving
of the engine would b impossible. Mr..
Citizens had some insurance on the
thresher that will recompense him
in measure for the loss, but COM
ing right on the loss of his house and
other effetcs on the homestead a few
days before leads him to think that
he is receiving about his share of
this kind of luck recently. He may
get another machine as there is quite
lot of grain to be harvested in his
locality and the farmers out that way
are unable to get one of the larger
outfits to come in and do the work.

Here Al Years Ago,

We acknowledge very pleasant
visit on Saturday afternoon last from
Mr.. A. A. Russell, of CASTOR, Oregon,
who with his wife have been visiting
the past three weeks at the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Adam Knoblock on
Rhea creek. Mr.. Russell is brother
of Mrs. Knoblock and is one of the
very successful farmers of the Yam
hill Valley. He visited this section
Al years ago and was able to find al
this time some of the residents of the
earlier days when Heppner was jus
beginning to be known as city. Oul
town at that time had one store and 6
small blacksmith shop and few res
licences. Mr.. Russell was mucf
pleased with the progress noted here
and thinks our county certainly has
splendid future. He and his wife
departed on Sunday for their home
at CASTOR.

Quite a FURRY in Wheat.

There was quite furry in the
wheat market at Lexington on Thurs-
day last and prices advanced rapid
ly from 63 cents to so cents, some
$4,000 sacks being sold when the
market reached the high point. 1t
was said to be through local compe-
tition, largely, that the price reached
this figure, for the buyers at Hepp-
ner were not authorized to give this
price. The market has been off
since, and no efforts to buy are be-
ing made. This is likely due to the
European war cloud. Most of the
large wheat raisers at Lexington got
the S0-cent price which is big lift
to them.

Forest Supervisor Cryder requests
that all campers and hunters in the
woods be very careful about fires.
The season is one of the driest
known and conditions in the timber
are especially favorable to the spread
of fire. Do not leave camp fires
burning when not In use and trav-
elers are cautioned against throwing
live matches, cigar and cigarette
stubs along the road side where they
might fall in dry grass or litter. The
large matches, so generally in use,
are dangerous and should be abso-
lutely extinguished before throwing
away. The cooperation of theSublic
is earnestly requested against the
common enemy--a forest fire.
