says he must measure up in this
fashion: I'VE want man who has
the prohi vote and labor vote, who
IS as dear to Sam Compers as he is
to William Jennings Bryan; who is a

whiskers; who is ladies man but
never jazzes; who is jovial, without
being fat; forceful without being
tiresome; tactful without being SPINE
less; who has future, but not a
past; who has the fire of youth with
the wisdom of old age; who is detest-

principle above party, but never puts
mush above meat; who is strong in
the east, but can carry the west"

When the Wife Is Away.

Peter Finley Dunno said the other
day:
Its folly to say that two can't live
as cheap as one-two can live far,
iar cheaper than one.
Did you send your wife to the
shore last August?' l asked a married
man.
No. he answered. I can't afford
it. 1t costs too much
But l said, your wife's tastes
are simple. Surely she could sojourn
at the shore without spending any
great amount
81 know that, all right he said,
but August of last year while she
was at the shore | spent more than
5000 week. Chicago News.

We heard an old-timer remark the
other day that such and such a thing
happened the year the railroad was
built into Heppner. Well, the rail
road got into Heppner alright, but
stopped just a few feet inside the
city limits. In view Of the fact that
the Heppner branch is one of the
best paying lines on the entire Union
Pacific system, it seems that ii
wouldn't be out Of the way for us to
ask the company to put the passenger
depot, at least, up town. We never
got it, perhaps more because we did
mt ask it. The passenger depot
should be up town, suitable loca-
ton could be secured now and il
might be an opportune time to put il
up to the railroad company in a force.

1t has been estimated that Hepp-

the past year on account of the water
shortage. New home builders and
new industries mill come to Heppner

Cheaper power and adequate rater
