The Most PopuIarhew for
Third of a Century -
PURE, RICH, FRUITY-SWEET
The man who chews gets by far the
most wholesome enjoyment and satis
faction out of tobacco, especially if he
chews plug tobacco. The rich juices
of the leaf are retained in good
plugs better than in any other form.
For more than a generation Spear
Head has held first place as the favor
ite high-grade plug chewing tobacco.
This unique distinction is due solely
to the wonderful quality and flavor of
Spear Head the richest, mellowest,
tastiest chew in the whole world.
Spear Head is the choicest of all
red Burley, hand-stemmed and made
into mellow-sweet plugs in a perfectly
clean, most sanitary factory.
You can't chew the flavor out of
Spear Head, because it's a part of the
tobacco. That rich, ripe, red Burley
taste keeps on pleasing you as long
as you keep on chewing.
Chew Spear Head and you'll be
chewing the purest and most satisfying
tobacco that it's possible to make. Ia

I
TO PURIFY THE WATER
Action of the Mayor and City Council
Will be Appreciated
Mayor Smith informs the Republi
can that steps will be taken immedi
ately toward cleaning the city res
ervoir, analyzing the city water and
patrolling Catherine creek for any
conditions that tend to pollute that
stieam ,"and the action is timely and
will be appreciate'! by tho people of
the city.
At this seaso'.i of the year there
danger of tho water becoming con
taminated in the source of -the city
.supply, and it is meet and proper
that steps be tuken toward guarding
the health of the city in this respect.
The pollution of Catherine creek by
residents along the stream or by oth
ers should be met with prompt ac
tion on the part of the city autoritics.
There is a law against the pollution
of the public streams of tho state
and the city authorities will see to it
that such laws are enforced whore
the evidence is conclusive. Union
Republican.
Livery Barn as Garage.
Commenting on the fact that La
Grando's livery stables 'have been
consolidated, the Record Chieftain
says:
The same situation is found in En
terprise. For year3 three livery
stables were open and there was busi
ness for all. Then times got dull and
they had their ups and downs until
recently when S. L. Burnaugh closed
one for good and has nearly torn it
down. 1 The .other was closed for
months until Fred D. Rinehart had
need for it in an emergency, and so
of late he 'has conducted both. For
ordinary trade one barn is enough.
This is particularly striking here
because so much produce is hauled
here for shipment from points as far
as 50 miles distant, and it has to
come in wagons. Also, owing to the
rough nature of the country and the
sparseness of the population, many of
the roads are passable for automo
biles only part of the year. But farm
ers have been the largest buyers of
cars this season, and they are using
them more and more, leaving their
horses home.
And while one man can handle the
town's "livery business, three gar
ages are flourishing. So goes the
would even in the old stockman's par
adise.
Through Traffic Via Union .
The volume of through traffic via
Union this year is the greatest in
the history of the place, and prom
ises to be even greater year by year,
says the Republican. There has not
been a day in the past three months
that one could not count from three
to six big through cars passing down
Mnin street in Union. These cars
come from many states, with desti
nations far away as a general thing.
There is no question about the in
roads made by automobiles on the
railroad traffic. Union may not be
on the main line of railroads, but it is
certainly on the big transcontinental'
highway for nutos, and when the gov- ,
ernment military road is built through I
this part of the state, it will probnb-
ly pass down the Main street of Un-'
ion. .

Enterprise Laundry Progresarx
An nuto delivery truck with the
words "Eaglo Cap Loundry' paint- .
ed on the sides appeared in , town (
yesterday, ready to start business -
for the new concern which will be (
opened here shortly, relates the En
terprise Chieftain. George Gilbert, '(
nroprictor of the new laundry, drove j
ifi with the car from La Grande. He
was accompanied by W. C. Haddon ;
and C. L. Fisk. j
' Mr. Haddon .will be a permunent :
resident of Enterprise, having ship
ped his household goods from La I
Grande the first of the week. He ,
will have supervision over the uses ;
in the laundry. Mr. Fisk is a mach
inery expert and will have charge '
of the installation of the equip- j
ment, a carload of which arrived !
on last night's train. ' i
The manager of the business will

Gilbert at La Grande but" now in
California. Earl , McCallister, who ,
was graduated from tho high school
in the spring, will attend to the de
livery.
Mr. Gilbert is proprietor of Cher
