HIE WATER QUESTION The question of a water supply for this city is beginning to receive seiious consideration at the hands of the people of this city, and it is well that it should. It is a well known fact that the present supply is not sufficient to meet the demand, and the de mand it becoming greater as the city increases in eize. The city council has appropriated a small sum with which to test on6 or two of the springs above t h rirv and it is just possible that a water supply may be discovered there. La Grande has reached the stage where no very limited source will be sufficient to moot its requirments. As the city ujea in the neighbor of half a million gallons of water daily, when the city undertakes to increase its water supply it must provide at least that amount, and due con sideration should be accorded the fact La Grande is bound to grow. , TRUTH STRANGER THAN FICTION If a novelist were to weave in to his story the plot that has ust been Unfolded in the court at Rome, a majority of readers would doubtless pronounce the tale thrilling and sensational, but implausible. Many would even declare its incidents impos sible. An Italian count employed as is valet a man closely resembl ing himself. The understudy was sent to public and private functions in his master's stead, while the count pursued his hobby, which 'seems to have been the same as that of the un- ortunate French king, Louis XVI. While the master played lock smith, the valet impersonated him in society, Here he met his master's wife, from whom the count had for some time bean estrauged . The countess, misled by the resemblence, was deeply gratified by the unexpect ed attention paid to her by the man she deemed to be her husband. The valet proved himself a villian, an exposure followed, and the deceived countess committed suicide. Here, indeed, are the essentials for a novel of the d'Annunsio type. Certain resemblances in this story to the plot of Mrs Thurs ton's brilliant and popular recent English novel, "The Masqutr ader," as it is called in this country, will occur to alrieadors of fiction. Iu the English story, however, tbe denouement avoids the unpleasant and tragic feat ures of this Italian scandal. Nevertheless, the latter furnishes a startling commentary upon the certainty of those critics who declared that such an exchange of personalities as the Euglieh novelist has - described was wholly fanciful and could never lake place in real life. The threshing machines that have begun work all report good yields, and it is evident that the million bushel mark will be rerched this season and then some to spare. A . million bu shel crop means much to this valley and to this town. To gether with the good crop and apparent good prices Union county will be one of the most prosperous counties in the state A million bushels means that every mill in the valley will run to its full capacity. With the splendid whe.it showing and good heet indications there is every reason to look forward to a banner year for each and every citizen in this county.
