There Is this about the congression
al fight In the Second district, If It
can be called a fight. The district Is
already represented by a man who Is
cn the square, a man who never goes
frantic over one thing, a man who J-
hhS been before the people of this
district and hag never been found
. bogus. When the old reliable Second
district has such a man )i congress,
why experiment with new and untried
timber? Why give way to the Idea
lhat we need a change, when we do
' tot? Why take up the rattle of self
appointed leaders who are untried and
experienced? It Is a fact, that the
first term or two any man spends in
the house Is time lost to the district
that sends him.
Immediately we hear s fne one isay,
"this Is all foolishness, a man can
make good the first term If he Is the
right man." Can he? There are many
things to learn In congress before a
can knows how to act, before he has
tie routine work, before he realizes
where to butt In and they all take
time. It Is very popular now for the
Insurgent to say, "send me. and I'll
show them.' Send him and he will
Fhow nothing. He will take his seat
alongside the rest of the new mem
ter and every one of them will have
to learn how before (hey can work.
This district has a man who knows
how. He is solid and without blem
ish. Roosevelt once said, "Old man
well enough Is old man good enough,
left leave old man well enough
lone." And that applies very well,
Indeed, to the Second district of Ore-fon,

Grande Ronde valley Is not far be
hind, although the Grande Ronde peo
ple have always been too modest to
tell what they are doing. To prove
the wheat production one has only to
iook over the numerous flouring milH
running overtime and also take note
of the grain buyers' contracts. The
total will surprise the most enthusi
astic man In the valley.
ADDITIONAL LOCALS.
George M. Tetreau of Baker City, 19
a guest at the Savoy today.
C. N. Finn, a prominent attorney of
Portland, is registered at the Savoy
today.
County Judge Henry is home from
Portland where he was called by the
slight Injuries sustained by Mrs. Hen
ry In a fall this week. Mrs. Henry Is
nearly fully recovered.
Jamea Sullivan and wife will leave
torro-row for their cM hbme In La
Cyge. Kansas, where they will visit
Untie Dave Manlove. father of Mrs.
Sullivan, and one of the old pioneers
of Kansas. Mr. Sullivan will also vls-
i it relatives" In Kentucky befors return

VISIT THE STATION" AND (JET E.

If you have a grouch and think
there are better places than. La
Grande. If you have eaten too .much
and are a little bit miserable at your
self and the world. If you get that
too often opinion "the town Is slow,
and there are so much better locali
ties," Just spend a few hours at the
railway station In the forenoon.
Notice the trains as they arrive and
depart, but pay closer attention to the
number of people who stop In Li
Grande. See them alight from every
I coach and notice the hotel runner'
1 wagons as they fill with grips. Then
; turn your eyes to the Wallowa county
I train that serves no territory jn thU
world except one Eastern Oregon coun
ty. Notice how it begins to fill thirty
minutes before time for it to pull out.
and by the time the engineer rings th?
bell for the last time, practically every
seat In every coach Is occupied.
What does It all mean?
It means that you. friend, are living
in one of the very best towns on the
map, and you are too dense to appre
ciate the fact. It means that La
Grande Is making that steady surge
forward from village to city and only
a few are helping push, while t'
are any amount of people who are
laying back on the traces. It means
that despite r.'ome of the dlssastlsfled
mortals who live herein. La Grande
Is to be the mtropolis and commert tal
center of Eastern Oregon.
Make several trips to the depot,
get the Inspiration and return to your
home or to your place of business with
I a resolution that you will do your part

to make this a city. It Is cowardly
and unfair to knock the town that
feeds you. If you do not like the com
munity, move on, there will be a live
one to come In and take your place.
HAVE A THOROUGH UNDERSTAND-
INC.
There is nothing like a thorough
and complete understanding in this
world. And In the irrigation project
now before the people of the Grande
Ronde, It Is Imperative that everyone
shall be posted on all points of im
portance. With this project com
pletely argued, it grows in strength,
according to our view.
But objections should be raised in
order that those who so sincerely fav
or the water plant can explain their
positions and make clear every detail.
The columns of the Evening Observer
are open to every person who has an
opinion on the district plan. We wel
come all cummunieatlons.
The farmers' day at, Union, August
27, when the experiment station will
unveil Its mysteries, should be one of
the truly big events of the season.
Robert Wlthycombe, the manager of
the farm, has some good things laid
away for Union county farmers on
that day and no one should fail to at
tend and hear his complete explana
tions of things he has tried and found
good. It has cost considerable to try
out theBe experiments, and the state
pays the expense, so why not take a
little time and receive the benefit?
When anyone says the Eastern Ore
gon country Is not a producer of
wheat In extremely large quantities,
they are mistaken. It has always been
conceded that Umatilla county was
the wheat king's paradise, but ' the
