The labors of the Grand Commandery
will tie concluded Thursday afternoon

Robertson, which now holds the ban
ner, and is prepared to hold It against
all comers. , 1

come full-fledged Sons of the Desert,

N. is arranging plans as to the archi
tecture and the park Improvements
that are to be made here when the
new depot is completed next summer.
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.

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.
