Next Monday we elect a school director

the matter any thought ?

Grants Pass has donned a mantle of
cleanliness. A "clean up" day was des
ignated and this resulted in a vast amount
of good work being accomplished.
General Miles can say "I told you so,
Several years ago he exposed the beef

turned him down. Every accusation he
made at that time was true.
Since February 14 the regular passen
gar traffi: with Siberia has been res'ored
as it existed prior to the war, and goods
of all categories are now carried without
any obstruction as far as the station of
Atchinsk, which is 409 versts east of
Tomsk. Nevertheless, it would seem that
the line to the East is in a bad state of
repair, for the Russia 1 Treasury propose
to issue, in the course of the present year
a loan of twelve million rubles for the
Chinese Eastern Railway, which is the
Manchurian line.
The Democrats of Whitman county,
Washington, by mutual consent adopted
the primary method of securing county
nominations. Over 1 1 00 votes were ca t
and the results proved entirely satisfact
ory. An effort is being made to secure a
primary law similar to Oregon. They are
also discussing the advantages of the Ini-
ative and Referendum law. There is no
question but what Oregon is just a little
in advance of any state in the union. We
have the Australian ballot system, we
have the Direct Primary law, and last but
not least the people have the power to
make and unmake laws as they may de
sire through the Iniative and Referendum.
There is not another state in the union
with all three of these. But in time all
will have them.

NUMBER YOUR HOUSES
The city is determined to enforce the
ordinance compelling property owners to
number their houses as will be seen by
their official notice which will appear eith
er today or tomorrow. A few arrests or
fines will undoubtly result in every prop
erty owner not having his house number
ed. It should not be necessary for the
city to do anything more than call the
property owners attention to the matter
however those who fail to attend to the
matter within the next thirty days, may
find th t it wou'd have been much cheap
er to expend 25 or 50 cents for a house
number thin fine and costs to the tune of
not less than $7.50.
This county can expend $1,000 annu
ally for advertising purposes. Properly
expended th.s will prove to be a good
annual investment for many years. We
need more people and it has been thor
oughly demonstrated that the localities
wnich made the effort have very little
trouble in securing satisfactory results.
It will not be but a few months until the
r Iroad 3 will have their he me seekei s sp .-
ial rates in operation and the usual thous
ands of people will be pouring past our
very door. We should arrange for an
organized effort to nir f'v cf ths
nest of them. We have no descriptive
ierature of the cjjitry whatever. The
Commercial clubs of Union, Elgin, and La
Grande should now take steps t- have a
portion of the availao'.e $1,000 expended
in a suitable country writeup. These
trngs all require time and we should be
prepared when the home seekers rush in.

HIS APPRECIATION
THE BUSINESS MAN thoroughly appreciates the advantages of a
checking account with a bank. Those who do not keep such an
account miss many of its advantages.
