The good work is already under way and with the caution and at the same time initiative known to the newly elected mayor's make-up, these improvements should be pushed forward and even greater ones start ed. -There is no stop to the onward march when it is once started. One and so on, until first thing you know La Grande will no longer be a small sized city but she will possess all the ' clatter and activity of a bustling bus iness center which she is entitled to become, ; :'' ' It is not necessary to review , the many splendid resources of this city and community, neither is it, neces sary to add that men rake cities,, for that Is generally understood by every , one. The fact that La ' Grande has started and- is well oa the highway to success Is a pleasing condition that the. new mayor confronts, and it is also of some importance to know that he will have the combined and loyal support of the people In undertakings that he may choose to advocate. It Is not unreasonable to expect a great many things during the next . two years, but there is every reason for thinking they are not only possi ble but perfectly probable. It will be the aim of the Evening Observer to eupport the new mayor and council on every proposition that seems to he to the best interest of the entire people and we have confidence In the men chosen as to their ability and earnestness of purpose. The newly elected governor of Or egon Is taking a much needed rest In California, according to report. Gov ernor West should show his loyalty for state and rest in some of the pleas ure spots of Oregon. Placing insurance on an Institution like the Hot Lake Sanatorium is no srnal business transaction. Especially would this appear correct if one could see the amount in premiums. ly endeavoring to discover if possi ble, the various and wonderful mental laws underlying al lphysical be'ng. Hig lectures deal with the result ot hfa investigations, and no scientist has greater capacity, or better natur al talent for Instructing and enter taining the popular mind from a pub lic platform than has he. If you hear him once you will become his con firmed admirer and friend. , He Is do ing a mighty work for humanity. 0KEG0X LOOKED TO. LET US HELP YOU SOLVE THE ' ' Well, Mr. Lafferty, congressman elect from this district, has succeeded in getting a story in the Saturday Ev ening Post, which is not a bad be ginning by any means. ' It has not yet been divulged who stayed at home to transact business In Elgin during the Parker trial. ... A motion might be in order to make the selection of Recorder Humphrey unanimous. SELECTION OF RIXEHART. ' .., ' ,;..'-vv Governor-elect West is not asleep by any means. When he selected As sessor T. A., RInehart to head the mwu uo wa ailing wuu considerable -wisdom for he chose a man who is well equipped for the of fice, and again West's political plans probably wero taking shape at the same time, but that is not to be dis cussed at present What the Observer wishes to say Is this "Tod" Rinehart, while a demo crat and generally opposed to repub lican policies and candidates, la one of Union county's first rate men.' He comes from a strain of blood that is 'all right . As a state officer Tod will make good and there will never be a GEORGE GILBERT BANCROFT One of the events that is attracting more than 'ordinary attention at this time is the approaching engagement for this city of George Gilbert Ban croft, known very favorably through out the country for his extensive and valuable work in the realms of Psy chological and Sociological Research, and although Dr. Bancroft has car ried on his investigations independent of any scientific 'affiliations, yet he is recognized as a pioneer in this coun try in hla chosen field and his vol uminous data, observations and de ductions are considered authoritative by a constantly Increasing following. Born n the far west of "rich but hon est" parents, spending his early .youth upon the "plains and in the mountain regions west of the Rockles.'educated in an eastern university and in Eur ope, studying law practicing fa few monthsgraduating in medicine and surgery practicing a few years. A year or two in the practice of these two professions was enough to con vince him that Mb heart and mind were in Individual scentlflc research and platform educational work, ra ther than In law or medicine. From early youth he displayedmarked abil ity as a public speaker, in fact, ipart of the funds .used in securing his ed ucation were realized from public speaking, political campaigning, etc.,1 etc. v Specializing upon Phychology and Sociology, he has been privileged to travel very extensively, both at home and abroad, his mind being con stantly alert for new material, his In vestigations have been earnest and laborious, embracing a ' very wide range, seldom undertaken by , a sin gle individual.' In the last few years his services have been very; much In demand for lyceum courses, teachers' institutes,' chautauquas, college and school lecture courses, etc., etc. He has not la all of his years of study endeavored to prove any pet theory, cult creed, dogma or hypothesis, but on the contrary he has been earnest- Hemlock,, Spruce and White Fir Tim bcr In Demand. That Oregon is' destined to become the chief wood pulp producing state in the Union, is the belief of E. Z. Fer guson, of Portland, who has been making a study of conditions relative to the paper material supply. In the south and central states,. says the Or egonian. "It is a"well-known fact ' that the pulp supply in the Mississippi Valley is being depleted at a rapid rate and it is believed that It will be matter of only a few years that the supply will be entirely exhausted there. Pa per manufacturers in the middle states have realized the situation there and are already looking to the Pacific Coast for wood pulp material for future use," said Mr.; Ferguson In discussing the subject., , "The Oregon hemlock, id considered particularly ; wall milted ' tnr nnnr making:. The supply' In this state, is large being scattered throughout the fir forests. The hemlock was spurned by loggers a few years ago but It now forms a large part of the log produc tion in many of the camps. Great quantities of spruce and' white fir are also used annually by the paper mills of the Columbia river section. One of the large camps produced about 25 per cent of hemlock and spruce dur ing the present season. This stock would have been a drug on the market had it not been for the paper mills. "The demand " for timber lands where hemlock and tfpruce form ft large part of the holdings have been more marked this year than usuaj Paper mills of the coast have, during the past few months', made several big", purchases 0 , this kind of wood Over 6000 acres of hemlock, spruce and fir timber have been sold to pam per making concerns during the past few weeks.", 2 We're showing a more comnlete line ( beautiful gifts than ever before.

Samuel Levy et. al., . respondents, against J. C. Scott, appellant; appeal ed from Umatilla county; p. 'J. Bean Judge. Judgment modified by Justice Eakin. This is a case wherein Appel lant Scott sued . Levy and others for the first right ot certain lands In Uma tilla county, on which respondents are mineral prospectors. , The supreme court holds that respondents were given prospectors prlvlliges after the lands had at one time been with drawn and after the property -was re leased by the Secretary of the Interior. Recently Plaintiff Scott brought suit to remove the miners, as the Levys were first on the land, which la In every manner mineral property, they have the first privilege of securing a patent to the same and acquiring full ownership under the settlers' act. The opinion modifies the Judgment of the lower court by enjoining the defend- WHAT TO GIVE HIM ; Smoking Jackets J S4.50 to SI 2.00 ' '. . ,' '' ' ' ' ' .'
