W. D. McMillan returned from Portland yesterday bringing home with him the list of attractions that have been defi nltly secured and returns with the in formation that all that stands between Mitchell's coming to La Grande will be co-operation on the part of union and labor men to meet the enormous expense entailed in bringing the stel lar luminary of labordom to this city. ,"Tle program for next year Is cer tainly high class," stated the local chautauqua booster today. "We have featured musical, and labor numbers, gettlng away from the overabundance of addresses that prevailed last year." S. Piatt Jones Coming; During the entire life of the chau tauqua here, S. Piatt Jones, an all , , ,. . piauuim man anu cnautauaua manager, will be in the city and take personal management of the entire affair. He is a versatile entertainer himself and will fill in with numbers and take the place . of attractions which for unavoidable reasons, can not be present in case such a conting ency should arise. This means much and places the chautauqua affairs in the hands of an expert who will see that something is doing every minute. Comes Earlier This Year. ' Because of the national conclave of Elks at Portland commencing July 9 the chautauqua will be put ahead a few days and will start on June 29, closing on July 8. This Is done In Boise and other towns, too, to fore stall the influx to Portland during the prgress of the chautauqua. The Chautauqua Numbers. Aside from other side attractions that will be added from time to time. the 1912 chautauqua In La Grande will reature: , The Chicago Operatic comnanv com prised of the soloists of the Chicago Apollo club, the finest musical organ- izatln in the world. This company will gjve the best In music and is the top line attraction at all chautauquas west of the Mississippi this year, The Byron Troubadores. styled the .uexican uypsies, comprising sevwi. musicians.' The Cambridge players, made un of disciples of Ellas Day, the noted im personator, will be important features of the program. They stand for' the highest attainnien'ts In drama that the Operatic company symbolizes In music. Sketches from the very best dramatic productions of the world's dramatic stage will be handled by these people.

Attorney Tomlinson has has been unable to decide the exact le. gal meaning of the word. After debating the question for a week or more, Mr. Tomlinson shifted the task of deciding by issuing a war rant which will require Municipal Judge Tazwell to give an opinion on the question. A complaint was filed against John Doe Watklus, a railway striker, who is accused of having called A. W. Gaska, foreman at the Alblna shops, "scab." Gaska says he is working for the railway company by permission of the union of which he Is a 'member and that he has been greatly abused In the present strike.
