The city authorities have taken the
right atand In suppressing the' Hal
lowe'en marauders. The system of
turning the town other end up on the
list of October is one which years
ago should have been prohibited.
There can be no earthly reason for
allowing ft few misguided youths and
half-grown vandals to destroy proper
ty and cause inconvenience simply be
cause the day is marked on the crl
ndar as All Saints' night. The pol:.e
should have the moral support and
' co-operation of evfry good citizen. .
There are many serious sides and
numerous sad and pathetic Incidents
connected with the failure of a bank,
but perhaps the most deplorable feat
ure Is the destruction of the confidence
which we hold, one for the other.
Eliminate from the people that ele
ment of confidence which they repose
In one another, and there Is but little
to hold the community or the nation
together.. .:v --''.

By this time next week the w6rld

jority, The wise ones believe they
are almost able to furnish the proper
figures now, but upon colse question
ing are willing to admit that perhaps
It would be best to wait for the people
to verify their figures,

Word has been received by The Ob
server that work in the Vale oil field
in progressing so satisfactorily, that it
will be only a short time until . the
greatest oil producing fields in the
I country.
A number of experts from the oil
fields of Kansas, Oklahoma, Pennsyl
vania, California and Texas have
been investigating the extent, and pro
ductiveness of the Vale field, and all
unite in saying that the oil la there In
paying quantities and that it la only
a question of reaching the oil strata
to obtain the oil. One expert says that
the Oregon' fleld will be the greatest
in the world outside of Russia. An
other that out of five producing wells,
four wilf be "gushers." ' .
, The Malheur1 company that was de
layed during the summer, has at last
overcome the difficulties' they encoun
tered and are going ahead at a rapid
rate. The Columbia company Is
working a day and a night shift.
1 The Mammoth Oil & .Gas company,
recently organized by La Grande and
Union people,' have shipped the tim
bers for their derrick and have sent a
man to California to purchase a
standard rig. They will be prepared
to go to anynecfessary depth to strike
oil. This company has. Immense hold
ings In the Vale field, between Yale
and Nyssa. The 12 sections they own
wero selected by R. W. Ames, an ex
pert of wide experience in oil fields,
after a thorough examination of the
entire field.
The Mammoth Oil and Gnss com
puny placed 25,000 shares on the mar
ket at 15 cents and the entire amount
was taken at once.
A number of peoplo in La GrancTo
have individual holdings In the Vale
Held and Indications are that they
will receive, In the near future, hand-'
some returns on their Investments,
