LADIES WILL COOK FOR ,
AMATEUR ROAD BUILDERS
Good Road Day May Be DelayedSport Conglomeration for Busv
Readers. '
La Grande is' in perfect account
with the state-wide plan to hold a
roads day when every business man
who is not a cripple shall get out on
the roads with shovel and pick and
really do something to improve the
roads; on the other hand the early
April date suggested is not propituous
to the best results in this vicinity.
It is probable that La Grande will let
the regular day go by, until it warms
up a great deal, and hold a good
roads day late in April or May first
It would not be pleasant for the ladies
to prepare camp lunches as is pro
posed when the .big day arrives,
while the weather is as chilly and
uncertain as it will be early in April.
Wives of auto owners have already
signified their . intentions of making
a picnic day of it while the men work
on the roads but more balm in the
atmosphere is a needed phase of the
whole affair.
Q
Here are some figures that should
interest the tax payer and goor
roads friend they represent the sum
of money spent each year for the
past nine years on Union county
county roads and bridges:
1905, 111,470.90; 1906 $23,270.83;
1907, $47,442.44; 1908, $25,578.44;
1909, $38,086.89;; 1910 $46,262,12;
1911, $29,746.76; 1912, $51,702.04;
1913, $42,499.56; Grand total, $326,
255.00. - , .
During that time, the principal
bridges of the valley and up river
points have been rebuilt and will be
good for many years to come but
few bridges now need any material
repair. But a whole lot of money has
been spent; on roads. With the
bridges now well in place it behooves
the taxpayers to help the county offi
cials hew out some scheme to get
permanent roads. There are many
ways, but with some figures' as the
foregoing to prod the taxpayers on,
some county-wide movement to adopt
a permanent good roads policy should
be the result, and at once too.

The police department evidently
means business in its announced ban
on speeding. The auto-owning public
is not, as a whole, adverse to enforc-
"g me sjceu uuuui huu a uig major

Thoughtlessness is often the blame
for speeding, and outright cussedness
ia at all times the fault; happily this
last-named class is in the great minor
ity. i j
High ' track candidates are not
showing much fever yet balmy
weather in the day time it is true, but
from 4 o'clock on when high school
lads can get out it is too chilly for
healthy training. Little is known of
prospects for the local institution's
cinder representation this year, thus
far.

Everything is in readiness at the
ball grounds for the big preliminary
workout Sunday afternoon at 2
o'clock. There should be at least 30
men out as this team will consist en-
tirely of local people and the ob
ject will be to play amateur Sunday
ball. There is enough local material
to choose from, (.specially if latent
talent, and good players not known
generally because of recent arrival in
the city,, will come out and try for the
team. Manager McCormick has or

' The fourth semi-monthly shoot of
the Wallowa County Gun club was
held at Lostine last Sunday. '
Gunners from Joseph, Wallowa and
Lostine participated first in a prac
tice shoot and later in the day In the
regular event Similar shoots were
held the same day in Portland, Eu
gene, Salem and other cities of the
state. The returns of this and all
other contests are sent into the gen
eral , headquarters at Portland and
averaged. Last year the Wallowa
county boys won the state champion
ship. Enterprise Chieftain.
"Bill" Allqn was chosen manager of
the Wallowa ball team for the com
ing season at a meeting held last Sun
day on the ball grounds says the Sun
of Wallowa. Edwin Marvin, who has
been manager for the past two years,
could not serve again on account of
business reasons, and Allen was elec
ted by an unanimous vote.. Much in
terest was shown in base ball Sun
day, a large squad being out for the
first try-out. There is no doubt but
that Wallowa will have a strong team (
in the league this year.
Lostine has already organized with
Will Spence as manager, and Joseph
and Enterprise have signified their
willingness to enter, the four town
league.
