w. G. McCarty Returns
From His Three Months
Visit To Sunny California

W. G. McCarty returned to Hepp-
ner Wednesday evening after an en-.
joyable three months visit to his old
home at Alameda, California. Mr..
McCarty says he spent considerable
time travelling over sections Of the
Golden West state, going as far north
as Red Bluffs and to the south as far
as San Jose. Good roads in that
state make automobiling enjoyable
and he says that 1000 miles were
covered by car while his many rela-
tives were showing him a good time.
The tourist travel through Califor-
MIA is something immense, according
to Mr., McCarty and that state is
reaping a golden harvest as a result
Cars are seen there carrying license
tags from every corner of the coun-
try. AS result, Mr.. McCarty re-
turns home stronger booster than
ever for good permanent highways.
Business conditions Throughout the
south are excellent.
While in Alameda, Mr.. McCarty
enjoyed the privilege of being pres
ent at family reunion, at which
time all Of his brothers and sisters
were there. The reunion was held
at the summer home OF one OF his
brothers back in the mountains.

proved equal to the occasion and
staid out the hour without allowing
his shoulders to touch the mat

Campbell's American Band.

The stellar attraction at the County
Fair the past week was Campbell s
American Band, composed OF fine.
gentlemanly bunch Of good Ameri-
cans. ready and willing at all times
to respond to the wishes of the crowd
with music of high order, both en-
semble and solo work under the d.
rection of Percy A. Campbell, owner
and director. This Ia the second ap-
pearance in Heppner Of Mr.. Camp
bells musical organization, and the
appreciation of our people was man
iiested by the large numbers who at
tended every concert. The work of the
band was Of the highest order and it
was indeed remarkable the class of
music they we're able to handle, exc
cutting the favorite classic overtures
as only artists can, and this too, with
but sixteen men. The descriptive
piece, "The Death of Custer" depict
ed the last battle of that famous
scout and Indian fighter in the last
stand of himself and his noble band
against the Sioux Indians, and it was
very realistic in bringing in the bugle
calls, patriotic songs, the storm of
the battle and the Indians rejoicing
over their victory with characteristic
beating of tom toms and wailings pc
culiar to the race, reminding one
very much of big pow WOW of the
Umatilla braves.
Mrs Edgar Allen Densmore of
Portland was the bands soloist, and
she delighted the people with her rem
dition of the old favorities. The
singing of the kiss Waltz" brought
out the superb quality Of Mrs. Dens-
more's voice, and her color work in
this piece was very excellent indeed.
Mrs. Densmore is soloist Of the First
Unitarian church in Portland and she
takes great delight in singing.

David Hynd and his sister Miss
Annie Hynd returned on Tuesday
from an extended visit of several
weeks to their old home at Arthur,
Ontario, Canada. Mr.. Hynd says he
met nearly all of his old friends and
had one Of the best times Of his life.
Crops in the Ontario country were
better this year than they have been
for several years. Mr.. Hynd reports
that severe hail storm, worse than
anything of the kind ever experienced
here, struck section Of country
back there mile and half wide and
for q distance OF sixty miles and COM
pletely destroyed crops that gave
promise of yielding fifty bushels per
acre. II found wonderful senti-
ment among the Canadians toward
the Americans" said Mr.. Hynd.
They seem to realize that 1t was only
with the help Of the United States
in the war that they were able to
turn defeat into victory"

Heppnerites got their first thrill
OF an airplane flight when the pas
senger carrying plane Of the Ace
Aircraft Corporation took them on a
sight seeing trip over the city last
week. Thirty local people took the
chance with 1t. Archie Roth and
there seems to be great variance of
opinion among them as to the abso-
Lutte convenience of this mode of travel.
Il wouldn't have missed it for SIS
but l wouldn't give s15 to experience
it again" was the verdict of W. B.
Barratt after making the flight.
"The old town looks better tho, from
up above than it does down here"
1T was nothing like | had expect
ed" said John ]. Kelley. Some way
it didn't give me the sensation that
| had always anticipated.
Miss Essie Shut, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Z. NJ. Shut, and the second
passenger to make the trip, was very
enthusiastic over the ride and says
she will make the trip every time
she can get a chance.
Those who flew were E. H. Kellogg,

10 YEAR OLD BOY
SHOT AT MONUMENT
Martin Leslie Dies at Condor as Re.
suit Of Gun Shot Wound Re-
ceived From Hands of Ced-
ric Scharff.

Martin Leslie, 15-year-old son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Newt Leslie Of Monu-
ment was fatally wounded Monday
when he was shot through both legs
by Cedric Scharff. age 20, of the same
place.
According to the reports which
have reached Heppner. the little Les
lie boy was in the Scharff melon
patch and Scharff came out with a
.30-.30 rife and fired. The bullet
passed through both legs of the Les
lie boy, mushrooming and almost
tearing one leg completely away.
The wounded boy was rushed by
auto to Condor for medical attention
but he lived only a short while after
reaching there, owing to the great
loss of blood.
The Leslies are related to the Nick
Hall family Of this city.
Cedric Scharff, whose father was
the late Emil Scharff, recently re-
turned from army service. After
the shooting he was taken to Canyon
City by the authorities and placed in

Morrow County Will Sub
scribe Quota Pacific Interna-
tional Live Stock Association

o. M. Plummer, manager of the
Pacific International Livestock Asso-
citation, was in Heppner over Satur-
day night and Sunday, leaving late
Sunday evening for Arlington, where
he took the train for his home in
Portland. While here, Mr.. Plummer
got together with some OF our lead
ing livestock men, and the work of
putting over Morrow cedn,y's quota
Of $2500 for the big new building of
the Association now in process of
construction atPortland, was under
taken. With the assistance of w. B..
Barratt, Mr.. Plummer raised little
more than half of the quota while he
was here, and Mr.. Barratt is contilu-
ing the work, with every prospect
that it will soon be finished, and our
county take its place along with the
rest of the counties of the state who
are taking so much interest in the
Exposition.
We had the pleasure of an inter-
view with Mr.. Plummer, who took
time to give us the full details in re-
gard to this undertaking, and we are
fully convinced that it is one of the
greatest projects ever promoted in
the Northwest. The fine new build
ing now going up will be the largest
of its kind in the United States. In
fact there will be no other exposition
of the kind in the entire country, and
that Portland is to be its home is due
very largely, II not entirely to the
untiring efforts Of MIR. Plummer.
The 1919 show of the Information
al Livestock Exposition will be open
ed iH the new building and will cover
the period from November Is to %.
II promises to be a big event.

"A M E RIGA FIRST"
SAYS CHAIRMAN HAYS

Chicago, Sept. 17.-Chairman Will
H. Hays, of the Republican National
Committee, today gave the following
statement to the press:
Il agree with President Wilson
that the treaty will be ratified, but
the ratification will be accompanied
by reservations absolutely safeguard
ing the full independence and free
dom of action of this republic. That
is the simple fact which the Presi-
dent may as well recognize first as
last. At present he is only pounding
against a stone wall of patriotism
which has already become impreg-
nable and is daily increasing in
width, strength, and height.
THE committee reservations con-
stitute the irreducible minimum of
the requirements Of a substantial
majority Of Senators who cannot be
coerced or cajoled into violating their
oaths of Office to hold America first.
There is no partisanship in their po-
sition. True, every Republican sena-
tor without exception stands with the
committee, but because he is an
American-not because he is Re-
publican. l sincerely believe fur
ther that an actual majority Of the
Democratic senators feel the same
way, and evidences multiply daily
that when the time comes a consid-
erable number will vote the same
way.
1T is for the President to deter
mine when the test shall be made.
The treaty will be reported out this
week, and vote can be had as soon
as 1t can be reached under the rules
unless it is delayed by Senators act
ing under the direction Of the Presi-
dent himself 1t is simply now up to
the Administration to decide whether
it will or will not accept at once these
essential guarantees Of American in
dependence which will unquestion-
ably be promptly accepted by the
other nations. 1t is imperative that
this matter be settled right. 1t ought
by all means, to be settled promptly.
The full responsibility for any delay
will rest upon the President, and
him alone"

Heppner Man Literally Flies

Hundreds of Morrow county peo-

for Henry Cohn, local garage man,
to literally fly over to Round-Upville.
Henry jumped aboard the Ace of
Hearts as Lieut.. Roth stopped here
for few minutes wednesday while
on his way to Pendleton from Con-
don, and therefore has the distinc-
tion of being the first Heppnerite to
make the fight from this city to the

CLUB WANTS ROAD
WORK To START
Oregon Washington Highway Is Dis
cussed Thoroughly-Getting Co
Operation Of Highway Com
mission Now the Ser
ious Problem.

Just what Is to be the outcome OF
the highway up Willow creek from
the Gillian county line, seems at the
present to be a burning question.
A meeting of the Heppner Commerv
ial Club at the Court House on We'd
nesday evening was quite well attend
ed by citizens from Heppner, Lexing-
ton and Cecil, and the present status
of the matter explained.
The County Court, with Mr.. c.
E. Woodson, attended the last meet
ing OF the Highway Commission in
Portland, and made them tender
of s125,000, the amount, together
with some other credits that the
county was entitled to, which had
been previously figured on the state
engineers estimates would make the
grade from the Gillian county line
and up Willow creek to connect with
the macadam road two miles west Of
Heppner, and asked that the Com
mission accept this tender and take
the necessary preliminary steps to
get the work started. This brought
up the question to the Commission,
and then our delegation were inform
ed that they had made mistake in
their figures as to the mileage, or
someone else had been of in the fig
ures furnished, and that the sum
rendered was, as matter OF fact,
thirty thousand dollars short Of what
the county would be required to fur
nish. In other words, instead Of 1t
taking about $150,000 to complete
the grading, $1S0,O00 would be nee
essary.
Upon this report being given at the
meeting last evening, lively dis
cussion followed in which the ulti-
mate conclusion was reached that we
should 60 ahead and secure the $780,
900 and thus be in position to meet
the further demands of the commits
sion. The discussion developed a
unanimous opinion in favor Of get
ting to work Immediately and that
the work begin at the Gillian coun.
ty line and proceed towards Hepp-
ner, even though there was not suffi-
cient funds to complete the grade to
this city. This would leave a small
gap which in due time could be
closed.
An earnest effort will immediate
ly be made to get the Highway Com
mission to come across in order that
the work Of grading may be under
taken promptly this Fall and COM
pleted as nearly as possible before
the dry season sets in next summer.
Commissioner Thompson is In PEN
dleton at present, and a committee
will call upon him there il proper ar
,rangements can be made, and the
question settled at once.
The question of a Chautauqua for
Heppner for the coming summer
was presented by Mr.. Miller, repre-
senting the West Coast Chautauqua
Association, but not official action in
the matter was taken.

and Miss Murdoch had hard time
supplying the demand for her pro-
