West La Grande Sewer Plans Told and
. ' , WU1 Be Rebuilt
Taxpayers of the third ward "West
La Grande last night brought about
a material delay . in Installation of
sewers In that" territory, and some
affirm, added additional expense to
their assessments by praying the
council to readopt a set of sewer plans
this time to provide for sewers Jn
alleys rather than in the streets as
tha plans now adopted provide for. A
long string of petitioners, scores in
fact, stipulated to the council that
they wanted the alley connections.
Three or four business men and tax
payers argued with the council not to
change the plans.- These men Includ
ed ex-Mayor Hall and ex-Mayor Mey
ers.' All work done, in a. legal way
will have to be done over, and it will
require at kast a month to get things
started again. When a resolution, in
troduced on the strength of the peti
tion, was voted on the councilmen with
tWO eXPftntlotl war a niM.il W
vast majority and voted for the change
as requested by the petitions. Logsdon
and Finley opposed. ; - ; .i ;
Not alone will the plans have to b3
drafted but the matter of assessments
will have to be done all over again,
entailing a loss of time and a great
deal of work. It is '. said that it is
doubtful if ; the sew.rs will be laid
this' summer on the strength of the
change. '. .

A move Intended to expedite f? 'n-
stallation of sewers was statt il last
night through the passage of a resolu
tion sub-dividing the thr3 original
sewer Improvement districts. By vir
tue of this move, the sewer sections
will be outlined so that territory
where there are no houses need not
be supplied with sewerage at this time.
It gives a smaller community or sec
tion sewer facilities at once, rather
than await the development of sparse
ly settled sections.

FORTUNES HAVE ALREADY
BEEN MADE , AT IMBLER
AND THERE ARE MORE TO
COME.
Taking into consideration the' fact that Imbler 's
fruit section has never had proper organization until
this Spring; that it has usver had advertising along
a regular campaign line; that the fruithas been sold :

taking into further con3ide'.at'Cti that the; orchard
area has not been overly large unt il now, it is of some
; consequence to know that several snug fortunes have
already been cleaned up by orchard men; .
i . The Laidlaw purchase netted the owner a good re
turn. In fact it was a deal that received prominence
all over the West. Other smaller transactions have
shown profit to land owners.
Are You in the Market for
a Good Investment?
, When we say, "are you in the market for a good
investment?" we do not mean have you $50,000 to
invest. Not by any means, for the average investor
invests his savings. Under the plans of fairness and
equity which have been adopted in the Imbler dis
"trict it is possible for the man or woman with a few
hundred dollars to handle an orchard tract. A tract -that
will increase in value from the date of purchase
and one that will net the owner big returns if it is
held. The orchard planting plan relieves the invest
or from all care of his land except to go out occasion
ally and look it over if he so desires, ;
And when you go to the Imbler district to look
over your tract that has been carefully planted'and
cultivated you cannot help then feeling the import
ance of your investment
Fruit land is the one investment now on the mar
ket for the small investor that is absolutely sure of
returns. All you need to do is to select an honorable f
concern with standing to handle your tract. ;
Those having good fruitland investment offerings
in the Imbler district are:
