A New Institution Comes Today La Grande people are rejoicing. Another Mir. substantial lumbering institution, alter due tie liberation, has decided Ij Grande offers the lest location for its operation. The Alt.. Emily Timler company, which owns largo holdings in Union and Umatilla counties, will erect a luniDer manufacturing plant in La Grande on the land formerly used for a fair ground. . The Mt. Emily Timber company is owned by A. H. Stange and associates of Merrill, Wisconsin. It is therefore one of the very best, for the Stange institutions are known far and wide as being "corporations possessing a heart," which means their connection with La Grande is to be most pleasant. The decision reached last evening at the banquet table in the Country club, when A. II. Stange, as representative for the Mt. Krnilv Timber company, after carefully weighing the points of advantage of all locations offered in Eastern Oregon selected La Grande means a great deal to this city. It means more pay rolls, more property, greater improvement and increased popu L-iLion for this city. It means La Grande is to grow and benefit from" the milling of forests which are now ripe and ready to "'.'tit'.).. It means the deterioration of ripe timber will cease and the waste which follows when standing timber reaches a ceN tain age and stage of development will be largely obviated. The plant this company will erect will I a modern lumber ing manufaclariiifOIant, und to supply that plant with logs a railroad will' be built up the Grande Ilonde river. Jn the Union- Umatilla forests which heretofore have known no activity except the sheep mid cattle bands, will be heard the woodsman' nxe, the shriek of the logging, locomotive, the song of the logger. ,., In Ln Grande it plainly means that another strong, stalwart business pillar has lieen erected to supjmrt this growing commun ity that the labor and supplies nnd what profits eventually ac crue from this industrial undertaking will be centered in this city. La Grande is the home of the Mt. Emily Timber company nnd she welcomes with all of heart and soul this excellent com pany's decision to operate n plant within her borders.

Hectlg TjniLes Politically The election of Johnson, farmer-lalwr candidate to the United States senate from Minnesota, is a far flung omen of a hectic political future, stalling now in Minnesota and to close with the election of a president of the United States. Minnesota is largely agriculture and the Johnson election proves positively the unrest, the unhappiness, the upset finan cial conditions existing in agriculture. And it is not only Min nesota but ull over this broad land where there is an agricultural section. Minnesota had a chance to speak, the rest of the agn cullurnl states have not had that opportunity yet. That a letter readjustment of business affairs must come before this nation can go ahead smoothly is apparent, and that the late flurry of extraordinary prices in the east, including many j lines of labor, is not to continue must be admitted. The leveling process will come. Many believe it is long past ! due, but it nevertheless will come, and then this nation will go forward as n whole whereas now it is forging forward by jerks! ant! in spots, quite often losing some of the distance gained. ' Johnson's election is indicative of the feeling. There will be' more of tho Johnson type elected, whenever farmers get an op-1 portunily to vote, and it is all due to the uneven conditions of today, nnd not due to any desire to have radicals in the United fitntes senate.

Woman's Styles Kills Styles of feminine dress are admittedly distracting and often lire effectively designed to stun the masculine observer and make him lose both heart nnd head. Woman has always taken tin? styles seriously, for are they not a means to attractiveness, which is in itself a high end? Itnl it remained for a New York woman to turn in exasper ation from n dispute over styles to quaff poison, thereby making them a matter of life and death. The dross of modem woman is too scanty an affair for its styles lo lie taken overserlously. Wanted f.'ood lisod Furniture .Houghton's yoir used furijhirw e hjtfhe.Ht pliers.
