Congress is still drilling away on

'City Recorder Cox Is having copies
of the proposed charter delivered to
the voters of the city as required by
law. Thla gives every voter an op
portunity to read and carefully con
alder what he is voting for. .However,
this same charter has been before the
people twice before and the general
provisions are well understood. It
has been gone over and over and In
Ita present Btate Is meeting with prac
tically no opposition whatever.

The entire Northwest is pleased
with the attendance at the Alaska
Yukon exposition by eastern people.
The tralnB are all loaded, and the
great majority are either going one
route and returning over different
routes which gives them an oppor
tunity of realizing what a great coun
try lies west of the Rocky moun
tains. .
Independence day is coming. Just
at present La Grande is engaged In
preparation for the biggest, best, most
truly patriotic celebrutton In the his
tory of the city. When we say patri
otic, we speak advisedly, for If the
people of a town are all pulling to
gether, working In harmony, dropping
Uiought of individual gain for. the
common good, such a state of affairs
means patriotism, and patriotism ofthe
eaine quality that we have for the
national government. This spirit or
teal for the good of the city at large
Is commendable, It is the saving grace.
When other townB of Eastern Oregon,
not in this valley, thank you, are hav
ing dlfllculty in raising a small cele
bration fund, and are struggling
along, with neighbors fighting each
other in a business way, one hauling
this way and another pulling that,
according to the personal prejudices,
of each, with never a thought of any
but gain for self, 1 Grande has been
forging to the rout. In business as In
vecy other -tne. until now the com
mercial travelers, barometera of busi
ness, will tell you that It better here
than In any other town between
Boise and Portland. .Down at Port
land the other day the spirit of the
city was typically illustrated by the
float emblematic of our resources, in
which rode the daughter of our chief
of police. The city of La Grande re
ceived more notice from the visiting
throiiKB and the people of Portland
than did any other city of Its class
