These men pay a paltry license fee and virtually steal from the mouthes of the men who live here, maintain payrolls, pay their taxes and have helped each by hta little or larger mite to make La Grande. When the city as a whole makes life a drudge for peddlers, the sooner will the local merchant ac quire a profitable business. Peddler in this Instance is not only applicable to the man who braves the house dog and meanders from house to house, but the peddler who works under the guise of a highly colored catalogue. This one is no better than the other except In this respect that the dago peddler actu ally does pay a small license while the catalogue man dodges even that. The Observer has always been a staunch friend of the home merchant, but never more so than now, and on the eve of greater prosperity in Union county, this paper will redouble its efforts and by enlisting the aid of every buyer, every housewife, every husband, every girl every boy and.also the merchant himself, hopes thereby to stamp out the out-of-town pur chases. The merchants must be the first to move however-stock up so that there is no excuse for going abroad. . , .
