From Gate City Journal, Nyssa, Oct. 10
The Vale people have played their
big cards at Nyssa. For nearly week
crew from that town has campel on
our doorstep pleading for aid, comfort
and votes. winding It all up with a
picture show and campaign speech
session at the opera house. This en-
tertainment-if such It might be called
was redeemed only by the excellent
singing OF Mrs. Dunlap and the inter-
esting recitations of Miss Bessie Hope.
The speech OF G. e. Helman, on be-
half Of Vale. was but replica In
spoken words OF the written campaign
OF villification being carried on In the
Enterprise. In It he construed every
action of Vale people since the begin
ming of time as generous and unselfish
In the extreme, while characterizing
the people of Ontario as "leeches and
parasites" upon Malheur county.
Throughout, It was talk filled with
assertions. with practically no argu-
ment TO back them up.
He read an affidavit from O Vale
contractor stating the present court
house was as good as new, and be-
Titled the affidavit OF Nyssa and On
tario contractors who said they would
build the new Ontario court house
within the specified limit
He asked for justice. Then stated
the Vale people had made q gift OF
the old court house to the county back

justice for Ontario to give them new

He said the Vale people had put up
$4,000 for the new Malheur survey OF

their intention to beat Nyssa out Of the
