This is an increase in the imports of American ..$6.60 .. 3.60 www jiMuiar ui ,oo,auu as compared with .... 6c the first eight months of 1 905, and I .nn haa i ' . . .1 r 01 oo,ouu as compared wnn me nrst three months of 1904. The countries from which the imports of leather manu factures were imported during the three periods are not given in the official re turns from which the leather statistics were taken. THE DARK SIDE Good morn'ng ! meter read. How much did your Tacoma is the latest candidate for notor ity thru the medium of "graft in the council. Our scheol children think that fate is against them, no snow during vacation, but fine coasting the first day after school begins. There were 123 legal executions in the United States for 1906. Sixty-eight persons lynched, nearly ten thousand people murdered, the exact numher 9350 of this number 605 were committed by highwaymen and burglars. The statistics show that 10,125 committed suicide. One startling thing being the noticeable increase in the number of men, being nearly three times as many as women. The rural mail carriers running of this city have received their natty new uni forms. The boys look swell. Three more uniform men will be the result when free city delivery is established by the government. We are entitled to it and have been for over one year. At a Socialist meeting to be held in Oregon City, Saturday, speeches by Eugene V. Debs and Giylord Wilshire will be received thru a phonograph. The portage railroad claims credit for the recent reduction in O. R. St N. freights in the Inliand Empire. The O. R. St N' denies it as being simply a new years gift. The ordinance pursued by the council last night prohibiting manure into the streets and alleys, if enforced, will soon make a decided change in the appearance of the city. With increased receipts in the post office, express office, railroad office and a showing of fifty per cent. Increase in our bank deposits, La Qrande has made a showing that any city should feel proud of. a The exports of prunes from the United States during the first ten months of the calendar year amounted to only 7,751,' 622 pounds, against 23,854,868 pounds during a like period in 1905 and 43,544,- 232 in 1904. Our exports of domestio cheese during the ten months ending October, 1906, amounted to 20,226,044 pounds, of which the United Kingdom took 17,812,088 pounds, or about 86 per cent. The total exports during a similar period in 1905 amounted to only 7,288.77 1 pounds. E. M. Wellman & Company; ADAMS AVENUE The statement that the heavy steel passengers cars that ware thrown from the track the other day in an accident on the Boston St Albany division of the New York Central were but little damaged is the strongest kind of argument in favor of the general adoption of cart of this class. The train was running at a forty' mile rate when the cars left the rails, and while they were thrown about in wild confusion, not one of the many passen gers was fatally hurt ADMINISTRATRIX' NOTICE Notice is hereby given to all whom it may concern that tana b. bwart has been appointed by the County Court of Union county, Oregon, Administratrix of the estate of J.
