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.

rewarded the efforts of R. A. West to

east of the city, where a spur Is be
ing buiU-on to the O. It. & N. main
