JTlded by law, ... Let every effort be pot forth to se cure more manufacturing plants. The field Is not limited In any sense of th word. To secure the location of manufacturing plants In La Grande ' will require some effort and a consid erable expense, but the result Is Wor thy of the work and the Investment. In order to build a city It Is necessary that the Inhabitants have something to do, some means of earning a liv ing. In our efforts to secure an In crease of population we should con- . elder this fact It Is true that we ; have lands to sell, but we should re member, the simple selling of a farm does not necessarily mean an Increase of population. In many Instances the result o fa farm sale Is that one resi dent leaves the county to make room for the purchaser. Let us endeavor ; to secure for La Grande a year around market for labor an?! the land sales will come of their own accord. . i , , "1 Every one admits that the greatest 'aid to the upbuilding of a city Is the number of Institutions which will af ford a constant and reliable market for labor. La a ramie has many ad vantages to offer manufacturing en terprises and no doubt tho La Urnnrte Commercial club will use every means within Its power to make our erivnn- iRgos Known to manufacturers. To a large degree tho growth of La Oramle has been due to the mills and factor. les now located here. RTIUWIIKItltY DAY AT MILTON. i Pnrh nub Sets Juno 4 for Annual i Olobmtkra. .
