It Is not putting it too strong to say that Portland's growth the past few years dates from the time that Tom Richardson took up his work of boosting. He was the man more than' any one else who wiped away the strife of various points In the state against Portland. It waa "the! Portland hog" for years, but we dOj not hear this kind of talk of latej years. The state at large Is proud of j Portland's wonderful growth and the Portland business men are doing what they can to see all sections of the state grow. It is a mutual benefit. . i It Is time to commence thinking of and planning for a Fourth of July cel ebration. As a nest-egg there Is a balance of something over $100 In the treasury, left over from the last one. La Grande should never let another Fourth go ty without celebrating. That does not mean that none of our citizens should not visit other places. but we owe it to our citizens. Here we are a city of 6000 people and under the most carefully laid plans it is hardly possible for more than 800 or 10U0 of our people to ever get away This leaves 5000 of our own people I without the educational advantages of I a properly conducted Fourth. I It wan a clean, gentlemanly contest between Mr. Cake and cnator Fu'.ton as fur fts they were personally con cerned. Two years ago whi'n Mr. Cake wan defeated he took the stump for Senator Bourne, demonstratlng that he waa equally a good loser as he was a winner. In this ca.mpulgn he Is entitled to the support of every supporter of Mr. Fulton, and there la no question but that he will receive It. It Is no wonder that horse buyers come to Union county for their fine stock. The question has been asked the past few months, when It was gen erally known thut carload after car load of horses have been shipped out of this valley, where they all come from. The many fine horses In the parade on . Saturday answered that question to the satisfaction of all. t The success of Market day on Satur Lday should result In continuing this day legularly, not less than once each month. It proves another 'thing, that La Grande business men are the ones to conduct It. It requires no outside booster to make a Market day a sue cess In La Grande. Statement No. 1 was the chief Issue In most of the counties and with very few exceptiona was victorious through out the state. This will never be an Issue again. In the future each and every candidate for the legislature will favor It. "Mr. Cake will have my unqualified support, and I will ask my friends to give him theirs." Senator Fulton.
