A JUST -HOLLER" In the Sunset Ma.azine June July 1906 number, a very well written and illustrated article from the pen of Donald McDonald, entitled, "Portland the key to all" appeare, and the people of Union County and La Grande, have reason ta take offense at the slight given this grand County and thriving city, as in this article both Union County and La Orande are conspicuous by their absence. The beauti ful and productive Grande Roide Valley is not mentioned once in the article, while other portions of the State have received attention at the hands of the author. tven in the mention of manufactures of the State, Union County has no mention One paragraph of the article read, "The last census shows the production in the to know that we are a healthy youngster and we "holler" when not noticed. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, is going to investigate the canned beans factories in the East. When the government gets through with canned goods investigation there will not be a stone left unturned. Anything that looks like canned goods will have to pass under the scrutiny of Uncle Sam's eye, no matter if it is meats, oysters, sardines, or as just stated, beans. Of course this is good news for good old Bcstsn. GROWTH OF BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY D. A. Gordon, member of the Canad ian Parliment, and one of the best known sugar men on this contient, has returned from Europe, where he went on a extend ed purchasing tour and to investigate the European sugar industry. "Without beet sugar the product would soon become a luxry instead of a staple," said Mr. Gordon. "We here have lots to learn and do before we make business what it is in Europe, but we are of the opinion that this can be done here, and are more than ever in a position to put ideas into practice. The beet sugar business is destined to be one of the greatest in this country, as it now is in European count ries, a-d this may be said in the most emphath.c manner."

BOHNRNKAMP CO They say it takes seventeen words and 1 43 letters in the Russian language to say, "long live the Czar." But it is a phrase not used very much at the present writing. Ex.

IN TROUBLE TOR (RIPPING (Scrljps Newi Association) Washington, Aug. 16 Secretary of the Navy Bonoparte, has put up to the presi- manufactures of $1 12. per capical against dent the cases of naval surgeons Pease $93 for agriculture. Portland has 2500 manufacturing plants with $40,000,000 capital invested, employing 26 000' wage earners. In the State are 4500 man ufactures with a capital of $50,000,000 Oregon woollens, Oregon paper, Oregon condensed cream, Oregon furniture, Oregon harness, Oregon saddles and whips and Oregon canned fruit are known through out the land. No mention of Oregon Sugar, the only sugar factory in the State being located at La Grande, in Union County. If the census referred to by the author had been carefully studied, he would have found that the last census rated Union County third in the State in the employ ment of labor. and Brown, who are accused of "Crib bing" in examinations for promotions.
