These rumors states that the new depot will be set back something like 10 feet farther from the tracks as compared with the site of the old one. They will also construct a ce ment platform between the depot and the main line and the vacant lot tow ards town from the depot, owned by the railroad company, will be parked aud a beautiful lawn laid out with a fountain and pretty flower beds. As soon as the city breaks the ice on the paving question and actual work com mences for the paving of the streets of La Grande, the company will come to the front and do its share with alacrity. The part of the street from depot and facing Jefferson avenue. will be paved by the company and their abutting quarter of the street intersection will receive due improve ments. Rumors go on to say that the officiate at Portland appreciate Iji Grande as a paying center for the road and that there will be plentv of improvements for this city iu the near future. The brick for the new depot has been contracted for and actual work will commence as soon as the con struction crews finish the Pendletpn and Baker City depots. If the rumors In regard to the park ing of the vacant lot are carried out. the wishes of the Commercial club will be fulfilled, as it petitioned the railroad company to do this some time ago.

(A-20-tf) Threshing operations in Umatilla county have advance! at a rapid rate within the past 10 days and it is thought that the most of ii will be done by the last of this week or the middle of next. Bays the Pendleton Tribune. It is now estimated by grain deal ers and conservative farmer, that this county will have about 70 per cent of an average crop this year or a crop for the entire county of something like 3,500.000 bushels of wheat. In some places In the couaty the yiold has been above the average and in other places the wheat ha3 been so poor that farmers have not even cut it and it remains standing in the fields. The heaviest losses will fall on the small farmer and homesteader, who are placed In such a position that they will have to be carried through another year. Frank Rogers, the representative of the Kerr-Gifford company In this city, now estimates that almost one-fourth of this year's crop has been sold and at an average of 80 cents a bushel. The general tendency cf the wheat market has been downward for the past 10 days and at this time farmers are not selling at the present prices and It Is said that they will not do so. Club wheat was quoted yesterday at 76 cents for the local market, or one cent off from Tuesday's quotations.
