La Grande. Ore Jan. 15. 1906.
To the business men of La Grande,
The year of 1906 promises to be a
banner year all over the coas and inland
territory. - -
The Louis and Clark Fair caused many
eastern people to come .and look at our
country. The sight was pleasing to their
eyes; it awoke their curiosity. '. They
have commenced to investigate the con
ditions and prices of what can be bought
The real estate agents have to the best
of their ability tried to show up the ad
vantages of the country but it is a very
weak showing they are able to furnish of
this grand sUte unsurpassed by none un
equaled by very few. bnt the people must
be educated up to this fact, and the men
who only get a small fee in commission ,
for the sale of a small piece of property in
this city or county cannot alone do justice
to this country. I say the business men
should join us in letting other countries
know that we are on earth.
Take other cities around us and see
what they are doing to attract attention.
Lewiston, Walla Walla, Pendleton, North
Yakama, Baker City and other towns
with not half our resources are. striding
along while we sleep. How do they do it?
well, you take a trip around the oountry
and you will hear people talk, and if you
visit any ui mm mun you wiy imiow
more about them than you do of your
own city, La Grande. They collect all
the information about their country and
city and put it on paper. They see that-)
it is placed where people will read about
their towns if they want a lot in it or a
farm near it. After they get a home in
ar near your city the business men sells
to each family and gets more profit each
year than the real estate agent out ' of
the home he sold to this family. To fig
ure, the business men, they get as much
profit from immigration as the real estate
men and should therefore share the ex
pense of writing up this part of the coun
try, if you wish to share part of the trade
chat is coming west , " , v .
Nature has dona more for this country
around La Grande than any other section
I have ever seen. Spreading out to the
east from our city is the beautiful valley
sixteen by twenty-five miles of , garden
and orchard lands, on which there should
be a thousand where . today there are a
hundred homes! Back of , our city arid
surrounding this valley are the mountains
of pine casting their blue shadows over
us; a beautiful irame around a very
pleasant picture only needing the artist
hand to produce it on paper and scatter it
broadcast over the land, with a fair dis-
cription of all the resources of the coun
try, to cause hundreds of eastern people
to flock to this country instead of going to
other lands.
This is not an real estate ad, its for
the purpose of having the business men
help advertise the country and themselves
also, and a writing up of this oountry by
a Commercial Club or a business man
has weight with the prospective settlers
that would be termed as wild cat schemes
of real estate sharks. Have you money
enough, or too much trade so you don't
want any more eastern - people to come
here? If not think this ever and push it
along.
Yours Respectfully,
G. H. Powers
fOUND DEAD.
Found dead on the top of a hay stack
in a held on the lower tiaidocK rancn
about 1 0 o'clock yesterday was the body
of J. A. Ritras cuarded bv his faithful
dng from the attacks of vultures. .The
discovery was made by Camp .Tender
Fox and at the bottom of the hay stack
was the team of horses which had been
standing there since 7 o'clock the morn
ing before, when Riggs started out on his
regular feeding trip.
Riggs was in the employ of the ranch
er and it was his daily custom to feed
the stock. He had not been seen at
the home farm since last Sunday. He
lived in Baker City with his fami y, his
wife being the daughter of a well known
Baker county pioneer. She is a hard

hard working man. The sympathy of the
public is with the wife and children in
