The management of the First Eas tern Oregon District Agricultural society, wishes to announce that the county fair will be held this year at La Grande, beginning October 4th, and lasting one week.

The new catalogue will be practic ally the same as the old one, but with this exception, many of ihe premiums hive been raised and new features added, and also a large special list of premiums will be offered by the business men of La Grande.

WD d HI THE f All If any young couple who are ser iously contemplating marriage hi the near future will communicate with J. E. Reynolds, of this city, they will learn something which will he of great benefit to them. Financially there are several of the young men of marriageable age who desire greatly to take with them a "better half",- but have been held back on account of not being able to set up housekeeping. If any one of these will follow the above instructions, they will learn something that will remove this barier, for at the com ing county fair there is going to be at least one public marriage if the proper and requisite candidates can be found. To make the thing worth while the commltttees in charge of this wedding have looked after a prominent place on the program f j this marralge. Speak up, don't be bashful. Read the Observer.
