FOURTH STREET PAYING.
La Grande, March 22. (To the editor
of the Observer). As a resident on
1 Fourth street, I necessarily feel some
Interest in the street improvement thai
was begun on that street last fall, but
which has not been nearly completed.
It is certain that the contract price
for the Improvement is exorbitant, an.l
it seems to me that so high a price
should not have b:en agreed on. The
price to be paid is much higher than
the price paid in Portland and Willa
mette valley and southern O reenn
points, and I am satisfied that It wa.i
I necessary io pay any SUCU price.
The paving company seems to hav;
had its own way In most respects. The
people on Fourth streets should take
pains to see that the work is properly
done. And I now call attention to the
sador of the United States to Ger. curD on Fourth street in front of the
many. Mr. Hill's subject was "The residences of Dr. Molitor and Mr.

almost free from cement, and on the
west side of this curb, where It can be
j seen, it seems to me to have little ce
iment. I call attention of the mayor
(and other officials. to this curb, not
only at the points mentioned, but all
along Fourth street where it can be
seen. I do not know what the con
tract calls for, but if this curb Is built
according to contract, the city has a
poor contract. A sound price should
guarantee a sound and honest Job.
If the work Is not well done on
Fourth street, tn persons interested

has not been complied wJth and govern
themselves accordingly,

If It does not put life and luster Into

from Newlin Drug company.
Two years ago I lost all my hair. I
saw Parisian Sage advertised and I
thought I would try it. Before I had
finished using the first bottle my hair x
had stopped falling and my head was
covered with new hair; also removed
all dandruff and today I have a love
