La Grande Professional
The payroll here for the month of
July distributed yesterday to the O.
R. & N has been conservatively es
timated to be In the region of $45,000,
as there are extra men employed this
summer, and the slow board haB been
kept clean, meaning that those for
merly drawing salf salaries, are now
pulling down fat checks. Regular
engineers, and passenger conductors
don't profit by the rush of business,
but the other element, and it is by
far the larger, pecuniary benefits
from overabundance of traffic.
It Is estimated by railroad men
that 95 per cent of the approximately
$45,000 paid out yesterday to emr
ployes, will remain in La Grande and
be in circulation within two days.
Last Chance Tonight
There seems to be no falling off
in the attendance at the Pastime
theatre, the house being filled again
last night. .. ...
Tonight will be the last opportunity
to see "Flag of Truce", as the big
sensational comedy "Man to Man"
will open for a three nights run to
morrow night.
It is very gratifying to the com
pany to know their efforts are being
appreciated by the patrons of the
Pastime and some extra strong pro
ductions are in preparation for the
future.
