La Grande merchants ship
large quantities . of ' produoe to
outside markots every day in the
year.'
La Qrande is growing and
will contiuue to grow. The
larger it grows the better market
it will be.
Those wbo are acquainted with
political campaigns cannot help
but note the creditable campaign
that Johu Waldon is mating.
This is tie way a prominent
farmer uear ' Elgin states th
advanUges of having the county
seat at La Qrande and tbia
applies to every one who resides
in the northern portion of the
county. II tbe county seat was
at La Grande I could leave Elgin
at 8 o'clock in the afternoon
reach La Grande at 6:30 and the
next morning . would have an
hour. to visit the court bouse
before returning on tbe train to
Elgin in tbe forenoon. Now
when lam compelled to visit tbe
county seat it takes me tbite
days. , I know La Grande is
going to do just what she saya,
that is, provide a good large
commodious and ... comfortable
court house free for the next 16
yeara and myself and neighbors
without exception are ail in
favor of La Qrande."
The Lighest tribunal in this
e'ate has handed down a deois
sion that Union county is so
much ' in debt that it would be
unconstitutional to expend any
sum whatsoever in providing a
new court hotiBe. Now in case
the people vote to locate it at La
Qrande.it is evident that suitable
buildings will have to be provid
ed, and it is also a - settled fact
that this expense cannot be mtt
from county funds.
If Union county ia republican,
and no one questions it, and if
tbe republicans vote their ticket
and no one questions this Mr.
James B. Gilham will be our
next county clerk. He ia
thoroughly competent, and there
is no reason why a single
republican should scratch him.
Mr. Fraser, the republican
nominee for constable in La
Qrande precinct has had much
expeiienoe in this line of work,
having for a number of years
been deputy sheriff in the state
of Washington.
There is not one republiean in
ten who can tell you the date of
tbe national republican conven
tion.' They all know who the
nominee will be and little
interest has been taken in the
details for several months.
As there are a number in the
city who are known uot to have
registered it is expected that
there will be quite 1200 votes
cast iu this city at the comming
election.
The registration of the four La
Grande precincts is 1186, a gain
of 272 over 1902.
"Rusty Mike" in White's say
ings saya, "you'd think it was a
crazy farmer who only milked
his cow once a month some
advertisers are just as craiy."
Mr. Berry, the republican
nominee for surveyor is
thoroughly qualified, having for
a number of yeais been in the
employe of the government.

Seventy-six por cent of the

La Grande. If the lattei was

that 76 out of .every huudred

be a saving in mileage of 2280
