All dealers. 4 tr V ( ( ' t f m Friday of this week will see the first batch of homeseekers from the west. Though the colonist rates went Into effect yesterday, It requires approxi mately three days time for the tour ist to reach La Grande from the start ing points, and according to past ex perience, the first day of low rates found hundreds ready to come west by the first accommodation. If such proves to be the case, local passenger train employes will have a strenuous time for the next two months, com mencing Friday. The passenger train engineers running out of here have already enough work to keep them on regular runs, and they look forward to much overtime during the coming colonist rate period. Now that a regular train into Wal lowa county is In sight, and may be running on a regular schedule before the beginning of another month, much discussion and surmising Is rife as to the propable sphedule on which the passenger and freight traffic will be conducted. Pot the present year, at least, one train will be able to make a return trip dally, ana some are of the opinion that the present schedule on the Elgin train will be made a basis for the new schedule, the trains run nlng as now, but extending the trips. The last of the month sW see the trains rjunning to Wallowa, according to advices given out;at the front by construction officials. ;'.... FRESH RAMS -L. A 7? t lit 11 n AURicTiii ji mn tt w. n.
