' PROSPERING. Prof. Matthews Writes of Work Be ing Done This Summer. Writing to the Joseph Herald, Prof. Matthews, at the head of the Willamette Valley Summer school at Joseph lake, says: .

In numbers the school is small, but of the convenient ! selves upon the use settler and carries the burdens of out side matters as well as giving most j effective service in the classroom. His genial smile and broad shoulders make him a considerable factor wherever educational work finds him. Professor Matthews is delighted to renew certain friendships of last sum- mer. He declares ' that the snow- streaked mountains are lovelier and more alluring than ever. The citizens of Joseph supported the Summer School so generously last year and treated the faculty and stu dents with such fine consideration that we are here again with full con fidence. Nor shall we be disappointed.' Already we are experiencing your royal ways of welcome and hospital ity. Professors Matthews and .

A down pour or rain spoiled the forenoon at tendance, and marred many a picnic dinner, but the day cleared as it pr,o grossed and! by noon the weather was fair. A score of farmer families took dinner on the ground and listened to the Program' The La Grande band was much in eviuenue ana gave iour excellent con- "j certs. Following the first concert Dr. r G. Herbert rillvrl ahnr-t. nn 8ettle the Mexican situation without other concert. Then came the first performance of the Dixie Jubilee sing ers an aggregation of seven colored people that "got by" with a great deal of success. Their numbers are wel' mixed and varied, the singers indi vidually and collectively are good and the soprano and contralto are excep- tionally good. Every appearance made yesterday was likewise popular. Their concerts were sacred in character Sunday, but on Saturday n'sfht tley gave a splendid line of humorous nuni- kers. - i Siemens speecn uiscusscn. No speech that has been heard on the chautauqua grounds foe a goo 1 many moons iias precipitated the amount of discuss;or started by ' v. L. G. Herbert, in his aftevii'-r. ad dress on "cash, conscience and coun ty." He was at the same time the poorest and fines: speaker that, the chautauqua has haddepending upon the viewpoint of the critic. Although he prayed that the day might never come when a socialist president would occupy, the president's chair, he as serted that the movement of social ism had much in it that reformers rnd dreamers hail to contend with nnd 'adnnt TTa arlmito tliaf tia is visinnnrv 1 . . . , i of the utmost truth. As a speaker he is Impetuous and "Methodistical" in his delivery. He paid a pretty compliment to Walter M. Pierce of this city, wno between speeches was engaged in warm de bate over the social problem of t- day and admitted that Mr. Pierce had set him thinking about the so:ial problem thinking along a new line. Mr. Pierce is, as is well known, bit terly opposed to single tax. and Wr. Herbert believes that single tax will in some form play a prominent part in the reformation of the land prob lem. I The Winning Party Described. The composit parts of the political party that will put America on its permanent footing and solve the so cial problems will be composed of the following ingredients, according to Mr. Herbert: A vision of single tax, a vision of idealism, a vision of the day when there will be no interest, a vision of religion all these will put ths world on a universal brotherhood basis th? mellenium, he said. I The loncentms of opinion of the speech is that it set the men and women in the audience thinking, and that in many respects the address was a rare one: mixed with common sense, visionary statements and hy potheses that could be adopted or ig nored, as the speaker desired. The trinity of power is the school, patriotism and religion, according to Mr. Herbert's-address yesterday af totuoon. The tremendous audience which heard -him in the afternoon was1 much pleased with his oratory And his logic, However, the Saturday afternoon speech will be remember ed long after the Sunday afternon speech is forgotten by those who heard both. The Dixie Jubilee singers were mora popular , in their last concert than the first, probably, and they left town this 'morning after having given eutisf action in abundant measure. ' Mrs. MiUer Winning Lulu Dahl Miller is winning new friends as she goes. Her voice rings through the park like a silvery-voiced bell, and her personality campers are finding, is true blue, as her voice is truly musical. ; Dr. Brainerd is proving himself a competent platform manager and his course of Bible study lessons opened this morning with a good attendance and a splendid discussion. Tennis Occupies Time. The tennis courts were completed Sunday morning and were occupied throughout the day. The ground worked into firm-condition quickly and a great deal of sport has been the re sult. ' Restaurant Is Winner. , With par excellence food served and at reasonable prices besides, the L; D. S. restaurant "got off on the right foot" from the start. The patrons find that the service is first class; hence, as the week progresses, the ladies are going to get better patron age than at first though the first day was busy for them. Their deli catessen is likewise broad in its scope' and cheap in its service price. The Sunday morning services were a big success. Dr. Brainerd the plat form manager delivered the religious address and his first appearance in a formal lecture was well received in deed. The Treble Clef club rendered appropriate numbers, much to the edification of the audience. 8 JOSEPH NEWS ITEMS. S (Joseph Herald.) When work begins in a few days on the new logging road out. from Enter prise a large number of men will be employed at good wages while the road is being built and at the big lum bering plant to be established at En terprise. It will put a large amount of money in circulation a large slice of which will reach Joseph business houses. An immense crowd of pioneers went to the Amusement park above the lake Friday forenoon to enjoy the big reunion picnic. It is worth coming many miles to see and hear M. V. Knight make a speech. When M. V. gets warmed up to it properly, his gestures very much resemble a fel low brushing off bumblebees. One of the attractions of Joseph is Geo. Hoist's fine garden of James Hill mustard, just above the Herald office. All the farmers stop and ad mire it as they pass by. It is as et ty a patch of J. Hill mustard as any body ever batted an eyo over. Joseph feels highly hopored by the presence of such a sp'did army of educated and refined people as are the teachers and students of the W. U. Summer school, which opened here Monday. May they enjoy every min ute of their stay among us. Norman Palmateer was liberated from the county jail this week, under $500 bonds, with the understanding that he is to remain out of this county and not further molest his family. He has gone over to some point in Wash ington. Scores of campers and tourists are beginning to move to the Amusement park above the lake for, a few weeks' rest in the finest summer resort In America. Hundreds of people will spend their vacation there. The town i? full of strangers and they are still pouring in from every direction for our big three-days cele bration. We hope all will have a glorious time as they .always do here. " no. Qui. ;. Report of the Condition of The United States National Bank, at La Grande, Oregon, at the close of business, June SO, 1914.

Jaquee Mfg. Co., Chicago. Harbormaster Wanted. Oakland, Cal., July 6. (Special.) Oakland is in search of a harbor mas tera high priced man that knows how to take entire charge of the bust- : ness end of the city's big waterfront, and get out of it adequate return for I the millions that' have been invtested to make it the best harbor on the Pa cific coast. . Frank K. Mott, Oakland's mayor, .brought the matter up in his annua) message to the city council. He told; the council that more than $26,000,000 'had been spent on the waterfront by the United States, the city and pri vate interests to bring it to its present state of high efficiency, and that, while the income from the large amount of municipally-owned property was big, it should be still larger, and an expert in waterfront business was needed to increase. The council approved of the mayor's plan, but no final action was taken, nor will be until the proper man is found. ' Mott also asked that a plan for the completion of a belt railroad, to con-, nect all points along the waterfront with the several transcontinental and local railroads, be taken up at once. He also urged the development of the western waterfront, or Key Route ba sin, where a large amount of reclaimed land is now open to industrial and shipping use. "Oakland harbor is naturally the main shipping point of California," Mott declared, "and its water-borne commerce is Increasing wonderfully each year. But it should, grow faster, and I want the city to take steps to see that it does." ' . Tour Job printing, the Observer office. Have It dona at MINERAL When Made With J Ave,, La Grande, Ore. n .
