LA GRAND! PRECINCTS
Up to last evening there was a total
registration within the five La Grande
precinct of 156 of which 91 registered a
Republican, 43 a Democrats, SO a
Socialist and 2 a Prohibitioniat. Only
on registered as Non-partisian. The
five precincts this year cover practically
the same territory as the four precincts
formerly covered, Many of the voter do
not appreciate the fact that they cannot
participate in the primarie unlesn they
register, and unless they take advantage
of the power placed In their hands
through the new primary law they may
loss it and should. This is the first oppor
tunity the voters have ever had to parti
cipate in the nomination of their officers
and they should take an interest in pro
portion to their increased responsibilities
and duties.
Have you registered?
If you do not register you cannot vote
in the primaries.
"A New Oregon"

is the slogan in all
In many-cities the ladies have organiz
ed for civic improvement with splendid
isults. Why not in La Grande?
Now Is the tim i to prep: re for an active
campaign in the pring. W need more
people and a we have plenty of room it
i our fault it we do not secure these.
A few of the political bosses quietly
ell us that the primary law will prove
failure, and hope that it may, and that
the people a. large will care little if the
law is respected. If the voters will regis
ter and take the interest they should in
the selection of their party ticket there
will be no danger of its repeal.
It has only been within the past few
years that the dairy business in this
county ha begun to develop, however we
are growing at a rapid rata and if the
Increase continues will within a few
years more be a close second to wheat
Last year the dairy farmer of this county
received close to $150,000. . ,
On Jan. 1 6th. there were eleven ocean
going ship in Portland, Oragjn, loading

same date there were seventeen ships on
the high sea enroute for Portland
under foreign flags. Of the 23 ships

twelve are English, eleven France, two
German, two Italian and one Russian
These figures show our dependence on
foreign ships to carry on our foreign
