ALL COMPLIMENT LA GRANDE.
Throughout Eastern Oregon there
is praise for La Grande in her efforts
to hold a Chautauqua assembly this
season, and In many cases those com
pliments are accompanied by pledged
attendance and some .'special attrac
tion offered to the assembly from
a neighboring community.
There seems to be a feeling that
It is the proper thing to do ana L&
Grande's people appreciate this at
titude very much indeed. A Chautau
qua assembly is not a business maker, j
neither is it an occasion for any
strenuous hllarltv. but it is a genuine
pleasure to those 'who wish' to -relax twenty Btars. white, in a blue field,
for a time and enjoy the best lectures and that on the admission of a new
obtainable, hear , good music, con- j State into the Union, one star be add
terse with congenial companions' and j to the Union of the Flag; and such
be elevated and enlightened by close action take effect on the fourth day
mmtnnahln with those whom we of July next, succeeding sucn admis-
do not meet every day. ,
Everything is moving along nlce
"y 'with the Grande Ronde Chau
tauqua, While this Is the ' first
session and necessarily thero will ba
many things that can be improved
upon another year, yet p!I Yrellmin
arles are being arranged In the best
manner possible. ,
Another instance of what it costs
to f'Joy ride" Is given to the world
by Portland. Two people and a large
touring car -went to the bottom of a
slough because the Joy ride "bust" be
taken. It Is another case of paying
the price for what one may term
pleasure In this world. You cannot
get away from the fact, that when
you da something no matter what it j
is,you must pay the price. This life
is one great big ledger and .no Indi
vidual can transgress any of the law
of uprightness wi.thout feeling the
effects. Sometimes it may be Im
agined that escape has been perfect
and complete but sooner or later
there will be an entry made on the
opposite page that will, brim? you up
standing and you then realize where
in you have given cause for the pun
ishment. The world is mighty Just
after all, and It is up to each one to
Id'Bn his sheet in life's ledger clean.
The disposition to have a two
county commercial organization
seems to be. growing and doubtless
liefoje fall there will be steps taken
to see If this cannot be accomplished.
It Is argued, and we believe with
merit, that no one community in the
Grande Ronde valley or Wallowa
county can carry the load of cost al
ways necessitated by wide publicity,
but that each community by putting
In a reasonable amount can help to
; accumulate a sum which will be suf
ficient to accomplish results. The ln-

teresta of each' community in these
J two, counties are the eame and what
aids one aids another.
' How can yon make money easier
than by buying a tract of Grande
Ronde valley land and setting it to
fruit trees?. Ask several who havet
tried it and you will be surprised at
the returns received on money and
time invested.
No one feels very much relieved
since the boycott -was taken off of
meat, unless It is the packing bouse.
Observe Flag Day.
Washington. June 14, One hund-
red and' thirty-three years, ago today
n ftnd gtripeg were adopted Dy
Congresg the official flag of the
UnJonf an(j( through the effortB of
the American Flag Day association,
the anniversary was more generally
observed in the national capital than
ever before.
On the 14th day of June, 1777, Con
gress enacted: - "That the flag of the
thirteen United States be thirteen
stripes, alternate red and white; that
the Union be thirteen 6tare, white, in
a blue field, representing a new con
stellation." The rumber of the stripes
having been increased by the admis
sion of new States, the possibilities of
the nation's future development dawn
ed upon our fathers, and the original
thirteen stripes were unchangeable
1818, when It was enacted: "That
from and after the fourth day of July
next, the flag of the United State$ be
thirteen horizontal stripes, alternate
red and white; th t the Union be
slon." Since 1818, twenty-Bix stars or
sovereign States have been added to
f.he Union, making forty-six In all.

"No," responded tbe comedian; "Urn

"Then I lose my bet," exclaimed the
stranger, darting in front of a enr nnd
rejoining his cowpnnlons.
Mr. Olcott saw .him band one of the

pursuit to explain. Uut tuere was a
rush of traffic nt that moment and he
lost sight of tlu'iu.
An hour or so later Mr. Olcott was
walking up Broadway-when the same
young miiu approached bini with an
other man,
"Are you Chauncey Olcott?" asked
the man.
"Yes. I am. and 1 want to say that
when I told 'yon' n little while ago I
was not I didn't know you had a bet
on it." I
'"Well, I'll be blowed!" exclaimed
the Btrancer as he turned disgustedly
away. "That's two bets I've loft on
