ANIVfRSARY Of GUlTfAU'S (RIME
Today the Local Option-law which
carried in eight counties in the" state, at
the recent election, goes into effect. The
principal cities which went dtfT under the
law are Eugene and Albany. . The re
sults of this phase of the new condition in
Oregon will be closely watched by the
residents of other counties of the state,
as these counties will prove conclusively
whether or not the people as a whole
will adopt or reject prohibition, as a basis
of future action.

at Washington. After lingering for sev
eral months in Washington and later at
Elberon, N. Y., President Garfield died
on September 1 9, of the same year. His
body is buried in Lake View Cemetery in
Cleveland, Although a quarter of a cen
tury has passed since that memorable
day the tragedy is by no means forgotten.
President Garfield was born in Orange
Township, Cuyahoga county, Ohio, Nov.
19, 1831. He entered Williams college
Massachusetts, in 1 854, and was gradu
ated with distinction in 1856. In 1859
he was elected to the senate of Ohio,
having returned to his native state after
his graduation. In the War of the Re
bellion he was first colonel of the Forty-
second Ohio regiment and was afterward
raised to the rank of major-general for
services at Chickamauga. In September
1863 he was elected to Congress and re
signed his army commission. He served
until 1880 when he was chosen U. S.
Senator. In the same year he was nom
inated for the Presidency and was elected.
It was only a few months after his inaug
uration that Garfield was shot.

We now have a good start for a lively
progressive city, with more payrolls than
any city of anything like our size in the
Inland E.npire. Let the good work gr,
on. Let us all pull for a greater La
Grande and Union county.
The election fraud indictments in Mul-
thnomah show conclusively that the elec
tion laws should be changed to the extent
that voters must register within the speci
fied time for registering, if not they should
not be permitted to vote.
It is evident that before it is possible
for Union cou.-ty to ontain a dense pop
ulation, which it is capable of supporting.
that the present large land holdings
must be divided and subdivided. This
will not be brought about ir. its most ex
emplified form until large tracts cf our
valley land is brought under irr.gation.
This will come in time but never loose an
opportunity to help bring this condition
about. Ten years ago the suggestio
that this valley needed irrigation would
have received little consideration but the
past few yeirs has demonstrated that
land values can be doubled and trebled
through irrigation, as a result all now
see the neccessity. That is. as much can
be raised on forty acres of irrigated land
