T SEW TBAIJT JOSEPH BRAXC3L , Tbe announcement of Joe Keeney, local agent for the O.-W. ft. A, N. that ll passenger train would be started on the Joseph branch Sunday la the answer to a long and earnest appeal from the traveling public. Thia meana that the railroad company has look ed carefully Into the matter and after due deliberation la willing to bet tbere is . sufficient, business in tbe process of development to Justify in stallation of passenger service. I We believe tbe company Is making bo mistake by adding a passenger train into the Wallowa country, for no one realizes bow that country is growing so much as people of La Grande who see and mingle with the people of Wallowa county. It is a great country possessed of almost ev ery resource known .to tbe Pacific .Northwest. Each month shows an Increase of population; each month shows new facea, new land owners who are locating tbere not so much CHEAPER PAYING IX SIGHT. There is little doubt that another year will witness a cheaper paving for La Grande and other Eastern Oregon towns. Several companies are in the Held in the Northwest which means there will be competi tive bids provided cities will enter tain them, and the day has passed when that condition prevails. - . When a city is letting a bid for or dinary werk of any kind to home people there is no end to tbe clamor for competitive bids, and It is but right that the specifications on pav ing should be so revised that they will permit several paving compan ies to enter the Held and try for tbe work. La Grande wants more pav ing and will have more paving but there will be a keen, active business alignment to asking for bids. By bids on paving not only the mere laying or the pavmg is con sidered but also the excavation and filling for these two items materially affect tbe cost of the finished street to the property owner.
