At this season when many visitors are In our city, efforts should be di rected in getting them to ascend the hill west of town sufficiently high to gain a view of our city and valley which presents a panorama that for beauty of scenery and commercial ac tivity, has few equals. The new roofs peeping through the green trees, the sound of the hammer and saw speaks as to our growth. The large smoke stack of the Palmer Lumber company on the north with its checker board of lumber piles, the sugar factory a little to the right, the flouring mill In the distance, the round house, our public school buildings, the court bouse, our church siilres and compart business district, an speak for them selves more eloquent than words or printed descriptive matter, for the ba sis of all our prosperity Is contained all within reach of the eye. Beyond our beautiful little city lies one of the most picturesque and productive val leys in the Northwest. Its golden fields, its orchards, and prosperous looking farms appeal to the visitor and we should see to it that our visi tors are not permitted to leave until they have seen this promised land for themselves, and, by the way. we predict that within our city today there are no less than 1,000 of our citizens who have not looked over tha city and the valley this year. Do not put it off any longer, you will be sui prised to note how our city has grown, perhaps, since you last went upon tbe bills and you will become a better booster If such were possible. Do you realize that we are living in a new La Grande! Harmony today prevails. RONANCE To leave home in Southern Oregon, to be pursued and captured and then to escape, to finally reach here and be married while the order for arrest flies on through La Grande to Baker City is the romantic capers indulged in by Miss Maude Kooken. if the rum- org floating about the city today are! true. She with Howard L. Clarke, arrived In La Grande yesterday and after some trouble secured the license, and last night at the home of Rev. Ford Ellis, , saw another victory recorded for that little warrior Cupid. Mr. Clarke is a new comer In the valley, arriving here with the SeUs Floto circus. He liked the vajley so well that he severed his connection !th show and located near Alicel. It is said that the bride's parents strongly objected to the wedding, and finding that there was no other way they eloped. It is learned according to reports that the girl was' arrested, but finally effected her escape and they came on to La Grande where there troubles were happily ended. While the youn.5 couple were here arranging for the ceremony a message flashed through La Grande to Baker City to stop them, but It seems that those who were trying to stop the ceremony failed to think or La Grande, and hence the happy ending.
