Thousands of acres of fine lands
lie untitled in the north end of Nor
row county, now grown to weeds and
becoming less valuable every year.
These lands are owned largely by peo-
pie outside of the county and are be-
ing held merely for speculation. Some
day, when the industrious people who
farm adjoining them have made the
country prosperous and enhanced the
value of their lands by hard work of
persistent cultivation, perhaps these
spectators will let go and a more
thrifty class of people will get hold of
the lands and make them produce. AS
they stand now they add much to the
work of those who are striving to get
living out of the soil and are un-
fortunate enough to be located along
side of these unused lands. We favor
the proposition of additional taxation
on these unused lands. These people
should be required to pay something
for their neglect and the menace they
are to the farmers of our county that
are trying to make something of the
country. Let them tighten the bur
den of those whom they are causing
all this extra work.

A man in the Willamette Valley
is willing to wager a 120 acre farm
against ten milk COWS that Hughes
will be the next president. A neigh
Dor of his wants to wager $40 that
the first man won't be able to get
anyone to take the bet. Is there
some Wilson man in Morrow county
who would like a nice farm in the
Willamette Valley? Here is your
opportunity, providing you have the
milk cows.

Bend desires to become the county
seat of Crook county and there will
be big fight on between that city
and Prineville before the matter is
settled. Bend has made a wonderful
growth in the past year. The estab-
lishment of the two big numbering
plants there has brought in a large
number of people and the town is
prospering because of tn big pay rolls.
On the other hand, Prineville will
soon have a rail road connection and
will be in line to push ahead, and her
people will not give up the county
seat without making a strong fight
to retain it and we hope to see her
win.

1t is a lamentable fact that less
than third of the tourists going
through Morrow county, come
through Heppner. Many of them
would prefer to come this way in spite
of the fact that the distance is great
er by few miles than it is by Echo.
The only draw back is the condition
of the Hog "Wallow" road When
we, the citizens and business men of
Heppner arise from the long slumber
we will step out, remedy the existing
faults and start things and people
coming our way.

At the meeting of the Republicar

At the meeting Of the Republican
state central committee in Portland
Saturday, Judge Charles L. McNary,
of Salem, was elected chairman, and
Edward D. Baldwin was retained as
secretary. The selection of Judge
McNary is said to give perfect salts
faction to all elements of the party
progressives and regulars, and the
working of the party machinery in
this state will now move along with
out friction. Oregon will be carried
strong for Hughes for our people
will not fail to back up in the general
election their endorsement of the pri-
mary; and as goes Oregon, SO goes
the nation.

this is so.

Marion A. Loehr, local abstracter,

after some business interests which
he still retains in that city.
T. j. Mahoney of the First Nation
al Bank returned home early Monday
morning from Portland where he rep
resented Morrow county at a meet
ing Of the state Republicans. At this
meeting, Chas. L. McNary of Salem
was elected to succeed Chas. B..
Moores as chairman of the state CEN
tral committee. One of the features
Of the gathering was the complete
harmony which existed between all
factions OF the party, including those
members who have only recently re-
turned to the fold after spending four
years with the progressive faction.
Tom Driskell Jr. had a merry time
with his car on the Heppner Hill
Wednesday morning when his engine
stopped and the brakes failed to hold.
The car backed down hill at a rapid
rate and only stopped after it canfe
in contact with Joe Howell's six
horse team. The heavy wagon ton
que pierced the rear end of the auto
several feet Luckily, only a few
days before Mr.. Drickell had removed
the back part of the tonneu, and put
in it's place a meat box. The entire
damage amounted to fifty cents. No
injury resulted to the horses or har-
ness.
One of the best hill farms in Nor
row county is owned by C. R. Pointer
north of Lexington. Mr.. Pointer has
what might be called an ideal farm.
By good farming methods his land is
made to produce big crops of wheat
every year. The home life on this
ranch is enjoyable through the many
conveniences which are made posi-
BILE with a little work. The green stuff
which grows on the place would be
the envy of many of the farmers who
live where water is far more plenti-
full. One of the features of Mr.. Point
ers garden is that he has cabbage
three weeks earlier than do farmers
living on the bottom lands of our
creeks.

The epidemic of infantile paralysis
in New York City is gaining alarm
ing proportions. To date there have
been over 200 deaths and nearly 1000
cases reported. And this does not in
clude the abortive cases which
though not fatal, act as agents in
spreading the disease. An epidemic
of this kind is surely a terrible thing.

Why not swat the fly.

Opposition to the So called 640-ecre
