THAT BEEF STEER AND HIS SIS
' ' ' TPW ' .7.
It is the order to place a flag In the
hat of J. B. McKennon and another In
hat of George Chandler. Not because
these men are made of superior clay,
nor because they have achieved vic
tories' in a military way but because
they have taken to the big stock show
of the west cattle, from the t3rande
Ronde alley which took prlz-s over alj
competitors. Such a victory means
something, for cattle from California";
Montana, Washington, Idaho and'Ne
. vada were shown at this exhibition.
The McKennon-Chandler cattle were
up against the hardest torapetttion to
obtain. It was a case of no favoritism.
It was a case of cold blooded grading
for the Portland stock show must
nnfce Its record for the future and
therefore could tot ,ln any way afford
to be biased. ' , .
And yet the Grande Pond- cattle
won the prizes. The beef steer and
hie slBter sent the name of the Grande
Ronde valley into the mouths of all
stock men from Denver to Frisco and
from the Canadian line to southern
California. In the future when this
valley Is mentioned every stockman
will remember that McKennon ""and
Chandler's cattle took the highest
grades over all. They will rem.mber
that excellent bunch of beef producers
and It will be quite natural for them
also to have a desire to visit the valley
and get better acquainted.
The Observer rejoices over this

nd:d vVtory. It taks off ft, hat
. the stockmen of the Grande Ronde
and bids them to' keep the laurels so
ibly won . for th in br McKennon and
Chandler." ' Grade un your stock end
'are, for It better than you have ever
lone before, gee that the strictest at
tention is paid to breeding. If this b
done, this . valler. will continue , each
year to land the first place In all stock
exhibits of the valley. ' ,
JOT A SELFISH MOTE.
What exploiting may be done by th3
La Grande Commercial club and what
icd it may be able to do will not be
-eserved . to this city alon:, for La
"rende people ; realize that.it Is im
'osaible to get nrcper results unless
the whole valley and Wallowa county
'!a are rushed to the front. Devel
opment Is to be assisted and promVe
vh?rever It is posglble-whether it be
"jut at Imnaha or In thY business dis
rkts of this city. ' .
For this reason La Grande invites
11 other communities .to Join In the
effort to accomplish results., Send In
representatives from your respectiv
'ocalities; offer any suggestion that
may occur to you and in return tht3
city will endeavor to assist in bring
lng about what is desired. -
Always remember this Is purely a
community proposition, and If you
possess any Jealousies' or hatreds, for
the love of goodness keep them sealed
up In your heart; for the Comerclal
club of La Grande has no time to lis
ten to petty quarrels or old .time
grudges. Furthermore It will not en
tertaln such minor things.,' The -field
here ie open-tp'r wide 4evflo,jnnt and
big work. The club wants the co-op
eration of . everyone,- but In. no In
stance. : will it permit narrowness and
past 'history to Influence Its acts.
, - . . ,
Vhton has let contracts for her new
school building and now everything is
settled and all the .inhabitants of that
rich little city are pulling together for
tin annual horse show. Don't worry
about Union's little home scraps. They
do not get outside of the city limits.
Soon the road machinery will be at
work In La Grande. Not only will the
pavd streets be put down, but the
street department will likely 'begin the
long and tedious task of grading the
streets of the residence sections, and
above all else, provide for drainage.
Somehow with all the arms of the
law at work Portland falls to catch
the murderer of the little five-year-old
Klrl. Can" It be possible that with our
boasted criminal catching plant theVe
is still a weak spot? It would seem
so.
