T7e can be thankful this year for
an improved water ByBtem and next
ear tor better streets. Oh do not be
come discouraged ; if you will consider
that we have been wrestling with the
water problem much longer than we
have the streets. For many years we
thought we had to have sloppy streets
as a mater of fact. It has only been
for about two years that we have been
that we have actually been consider
ing paving. It has only been about
five years that we have commenced to
have cement walks. It requires time
to build new cities. We are doing quite
well. La Grande Is no boomer in our
quiet, steady, forward manner, ench
year adds to our wealth and conven
ience. Streets first und then will couio
sewerage.
If La Grande does nothing more 'lur
lng 1910 thnn to secure a Chautauqua,
It will have accomplished much. Such
opportunities come only onoo. in a
wnue. this I our opportunity if we
will embrace it.

Union expects to have her woolen
mils runlnng by spring. This tnl'l
which was in operation for several
years enjoyed a national reputation
for strictly high grade kothIr and it
seems that the large payroll would
Justify keeping it running, 'especially
as It has always been considered a
money maker.
.
A prominent business man suggest
ed today that when we get the Beaver
Creek water In the city which will de
velops 300 horse power, which it has
been estimated to produce, that It be
developed and offer it at a low rate
for manufacturing purposes. Here Is
ah idea worthy of consideration. .
IllWIIlft
Remember the deleivery boy, these
dark evenings. The way to do bo is to
place your order early In the day. If
you are cut of flour you certainly
should know it before noon Just as
well as at 4:30; when it Is dark.

The reports of the National Hanks

prosperity that has never been exceed
ed in prior years. In addition to the
marketing of our crops nnd products,
we are attracting a great deal of new
population which brings with It new
capital. This factor will Increase each j
7ear for many decades. It requires a
vast amount of advertising in one way
and another to get our eastern friends
to realize that the went is the land of
opportunity.
