This is a saving Per thousand gallons, .t , .. . over municipal .ownership as compared I with La Grande "Made in Oregon" That is a loyal motto and should receive nat.rint.ir. t,m. port. Let the idea be brought home by using whatever is possible, "Made in La Grande." The whole idea is along the proper line and will produce results.

It is ncped to have 9.000 men at work thjre tins summer. Some action should be taken to prevent those who haul garbage from using the county roads for a dumping ground. There is no road leading out from La Grande that is free from wagon loads of old tin cans, and unsightly boxes. This should all be stopped. The road super- visor should see that this practice is stopped and that the garbage now on the road tide it removed. . Speaker 'Joseph G. Cannon, of the House of Representatives is seventy years old today and his birthday will be made the starting point of a big political boom, the object of which it the nomina ton of Mr. Cannon for the Presidency of the United States. The friends, personal as well at political, have arranged a big reception and dinner in honor of Speaker Cannon's birthday and it will be at the dinner tonight that the boom . will be for mally launched. A deal hat been consummated whereby New York and Philadelphia capitalists have secured control of all the electric power, and water plants in the Willamette valley, the deal involving a total of $20, 000.000. The entire business will be in the hands of one gigantic company and the people will pay the bills as usual. This concentration of public utilities usually results in no benefit for the masses and we mistake much if this deal roves an exception to this rule. The President has won out as usual. On Wednesday his pet railroad bill, which at first met with strong opposition will receive the united strengthof the Repub lican senators which insures its passage. It will also receive the support of a ma jority of the Democrat!. It it in the It givet one an advanced idea of hu manity to tee some of the defeated can didates around working for the other fellow since the primaries. One of the best traits of the average American it his ability to meet defeat with a smiling face and then pitch in and win out the next time. ' FROM THE MINES J. A. Thronson has returned from the Standard mines where he took a crew of eighteen men and three teams to con struct the five and one half miles of road. wnicn commences at a pome one hair a mile above the Muir mine. Mr, Thronson expects the road will be completed within thirty days and that they will have the machinery at the mine ready to install sometime during the month of June. J. L. Corbett who has a crew at work at the mines sends out the most encour aging reports and samples of very rich ore to substantiate the story. The stockholders are so well pleased with the outlook, they haven't taken the stock off the market, although the value has reached the fifteen cent mark. STRArEDoFsfdlM.
