MORSES.
To all wbo think the day of the
'good horse is passing let us call at
tention to a local condition that ex
ists right here In Union county. This
Is a noted horse country. Buyers
come from all sections because they
they get good horses from this val
ley. They find the animals far su
perior to the Willamete valley horses
because of the difference In the feed,
and possibly the altitude has some
thing to do with the quality." : , '
A few days ago Dr. Hall sold a
horse for $250 and Hay Norvall on
the same day sold one for $350. If
La Grande bad 500 horses of the
same kind they would be bought at
the same prices by horse buyers.
One of the most damaging knocks ' r

towns, etc. the very thing that every j District School Board of Schoo
public spirited man In this part of trict No. 1, of Union Courtr, 0
Oregon . has labeled "mosBbacklsm"
and relegated to toe garbage can.
The Recorder says to Its readers:
"The Evening Observer, of La
Grande, In its issue of Tuesday con-
given that the
School Dis-
regon,
will receive m to four o'clock p. m.
of June 21, 7910. sealed bids for fur
nishing said School District with
200 cords of four foot split yellow
pine and red Cr wood, said wood to be
tained an article suggesting that Un-
Ion and Wallowa counties get togeth- J
er on an advertising scheme and ad-
verttse the resources of the two Joint
ly, offering as an argument therefor
the statement that the individual
communities could not afford to car
ry on the proper advertising alone
and unaided. The Intent of the writ
er Is right and proper, but the Re-
corder dose not . believe the plan can
be carried o t successfully and with J
satisfaction to all, from the fact that i
too much Jealousy exists between the j
people of various towns in me io
counties. We do not mean personal
, Jealously exactly, but rivalry, which
would result in Jealousy in a plan
carried out as suggested by the Ob
server. No doubt every community
would reap some benefit therefrom,
but some would gain more than oth
ers. La Grande, situated as she is,
would gain more benefit than all the
balance of Union county and the
whole of Wallowa county unless her
citizens saw fit to give the other, sec
tions their Just dues. It is a fact
that there are a few knockers In
La Grande who, when, .they . cannot
land a prospective homeseeker, will
prevent them from visiting otter
sections by telling them of their dis
advantages. Elgin has had some ex
perience in this line with La Grande
and has had It rubbed in so long that
local people will never consent to
the proposed arrangement. Elgin Is,
and has always been ready to enter
any Joint exhibit of products, or like
advertising scheme, where ail had an
equal show at the land seeker, 'and
is ready, to do the same today, hut
the new schame will "not' meet, with
approval.
"The Recorder does not want to be
understood as trying to disorganize or
diarupt: that Is not our purpose, b.t
the writer has been here too long to
believe the Inter county advertising
scheme', win work successfully." -
Now, granting, that there has been
Jealousy ; granting that it has been
well founded, how long, in the name
cut while green and not later than
July 15, 1910, free from large knots
and acceptable to said School Board.
