La Grande, Oregon, December 27th, 9111. CITY COUNCIL OF LA GRANDE, OREGON. By C. M. HUMPHREYS, Recorder of the City of La Grande, Oregon. Jan 5 6 8 9 10 11 12 13 16 16 ' ' .. Pittsburgh In 1784. When General Forbes cuptured Fort Duquesne in 1758 he renamed It Pitts burgh lu bonor of the great English lnsplrer of victory. Later it dropped the "h" and became Pittsburg, only Anally to tack the "b" on officially ai'ii revrt to the original spelling, lu 1784 Arthur Lee descrihed the place In language which seems strange to those who know "the Smoky City" of today: "Pittsburgh is Inhabited almost entirely by Scots and Irish, wbo live in paltry log bouses. There are in the town four attorneys, two doctors and not a prle.it of any persuasion, nor church or chapel, so that, they are likely to be damned without the bene fit of clergy. The place, I believe, will never be very considerable." Palmer Lumber Co. 80 Per Cent.

Sonic Discussion of Making Claims fur La tiniude Bofore Mooting Early in February a college found ed on a Methodist basis will be estab lished in the Idaho conference which Includes the eastern counties of Ore gon, and considerable discussion is rife in business circles over the prop osition of pulling the proposed school to La Grande. " George L. Cleaver is a member of the commission which meets, in Boise February 5 to act final ly on the matter and at that time the movement to pull the school here will come to a head If it comes at all. Other cities lrf Idaho are making strong claims for the Institution and probably will make far more strenu ous efforts than any Eastern Oregon community yet the president of the commission writes to Eastern Oregon friends that he and the commission is extremely anxious to give an equal op portunity to every community In the district to obtain Oris school.
