Elgin to Celebrate.
(Elgin Recorder.)
. All roads do not lead to Elgin but
there will be a lot of people headed
Elginward on the morning of July
4th, 1913, on which day Elgin citi
zens will celobrate in pure demo
cratic style and entertain several
hundred neighbors from various
towns of Union and Wallowa coun
ties. The matter of holding a grand
celebration camo to a climax Monday
evening, when the members of the
Commercial club decided unanimous
ly to observe the anniversary of our
national day and entertain our
friends and neighbors in a manner
befitting the occasion.
A rousing mass meeting has been
called for next Monday evening in
the city hall opera house and it is
predicted that the most enthusiastic
meeting in the history of the town
will be the result.
At the coming meeting a general
committee ami various sub-committees
will bo appointed and the foun
dation laid for one of the biggest
and best demonstrations ever wit
nessed in this part of the state.
But few of the details were dis
cussed at the commercial club meet
ing Monday evening, but one fact
of note was brought up and that was
the matter of graft. Elgin will not
induce people to some here with the
expectation of making a bunch of
money. It is expected to raise ?S00
or $1000 for entertainment and
r-nr.es, and that amount will be suf
ficient to give all a good time and
make the event one never to be for
gotten. Conditions were never more fav
orable for a rousing patriotic event
than at the present time. Aerial as
censions, baseball games, horse races,
foot races, band concerts, patriotic
drills, well trained choruses and able
addresses will be obtained with ease
this year and the people who visit
Elgin on that date are assured of an
excellent time.
Special care will be taken to pro
vide plenty of shade, rest rooms and
other comforts for visitors. A spec
ial committee will be provided to se
cure rooms for those coming' from a
distance and camp grounds will be
arranged for those who wish to
camp.
Health a Factor in Success.
The largest factor contributing to
a man's success is undoubtedly health.
It has been observed that. a man-is
seldom sick when his bowels are reg
ular he is never well when they are
constipated. For constipation you
will find nothing quite so good as
Chamberlain's Tablets. 'they not only
move the bowels but improve the ap-
petitie and strengthen the digestion.
They are for sale by all dealers.
WISCONSIN MAN LIKES CITY.
J. E. Kaye Says It Is Hard to Find a
Better Place.
"My short stay here convinces me
this is the best town in the north
west." remarked J. E. Kaye, mana
ger of the Al. Andrews tailoring de
partment today. "I have been over a
good deal of the northwest country
since leaving Wisconsin and I have
o place that has the future be
fore it La Grande seems to have,"
continued Mr. Kaye.
He has lately been employed by
Mr. Andrews as the head of the tail
oring department and comes to La
Grande with highest recommenda
tions. .Having resided at Green Bay,
Wisconsin, for many years where he
followed tailoring Mr. Kaye is at the
top of his chosen' line. Some of the
Wisconsin colony in La -Grande knew
him well back in the old state and
they speak very highly of his abil
ity as well as of his citizenship.
It is Mr. Kaye's intention to buy a
home in La Grande and become a
permanent resident. - ,
