Just how ex pensive that ore Is to handle has not been determined but indications are that It can be handled at a profit.. If such proves to be the case then there will be mining In Wallowa county, but It will be done by legitimate earnest and honest people, and not by men who wear speckled spats, soft caps and part their names in the middle.

Again La Grande is to be host for the Union county athletes and again we all rejoice at having the pleasure to entertain the youngsters who are developing their muscles as well as their brain. Athletics are splendid . if a community is not permitted to go to seed on them. Temperance is a good thing with all athletics, the same as it is witn oiner tuius u ..C. . " No one can say that the athletic training of the past tew years has not done a gr:t dsal to make stronger girls and hoys. But occasionally there will be a city that will go beyond the limit and mix It with everything mak ing the athletic portion the leading feature. Fortunately . La Grande Is not so affected, and the athletic sports this city has enjoyed are the clean, high grade kind which do everyone good who sees them..

Admission 10 cents t l' M,H ' 'I- There will be a meeting of ranchers and land owners at the Iowa school house tomorrow (Tuesday) night for the purpose of trying to get concerted action to improve Hunter Lane, a thoroughfare that has been paid since the highways, of union County were first laid out. Such men as E. J. Conrad and Ed. Shaw think enough of tnis movement to give of their time in order to get sentiment started in the right direct ion. They came to La Grande a few days ago and interviewed the county judge. As a ret tit they found the court very agreeable to any reason able improvement In their, section of I the county. In fact the county court offered to crush the rock and, do the rolling provided the ranchers would combine and deliver the stone on the ground. Mr. Conrad and Mr. Shaw were well pleased with the judge's statement and at the meeting Tuesday night they will make a report to their neighbors of their success. . But La Grande has a part to per form in this good work. It is of great interest to this city that good high ways should belt the valley. It means more business, easier traffic and bet ter feeling on all sides. Is there not something that La Grande can do when the final account of Tuesday night's meeting Is heard? Or, would it not e well tor some of our prom inent people to ride down u the Iowa school house in the evening and show by their presence that the road work Is wanted by this city? $2.50 and $3 CURTAINS $1.98 pair Nottingham and Brussels net patterns, in white and ecru. v Sale price $1.98 Curtain Nets and Scrims, values up to 35c, sale price ................ 19c 50c CURTAINS 39c.
