Isaiah 43:2. S La Grande Boy Succeeds We notice by the press dispatches from The Dalles that Pot Foley, owner of the leading hotel in that city, is plan ning a ?30,000 addition to his building which when com pleted will increase his capacity for guests and at the same time modernize every feature of the hotel. 'I' And we recall Pat in his younger days when aa a boy he used to roam the Eastern Oregon country in true west-, crn nature. Then we found him running the Foley hotel in La Grande. Here he underwent the change from a man cf the plains to a hotel man and be it said, Pat always made money. His business paid here and it lias paid every moment since he went to The Dalles. lie possesses the solid fundamentals of success in that he believes in the teachings of a good father and a good mother that economy is not a bad thing to think of occa sionally and to always spend a little less than one makes. , , His many La Grande friends rejoice with this news paper over the success he is scoring in the Columbia river "cify and the service he is giving his trade.

The S. P. & S. railroad has made the first venture in the auto bus business and announcement has been made that, for fifty miles around Portland that railroad will install- busses on the highway under the name of the S. P. fit S, line. ' Highways are to be used by the railroads now for the short passenger haul and ere long likely these same high '"bvs will be used by the railroads for trucks on short ni'iflit 1inwV TM? n r-'twil ronseouence and should have been expected, . for the railroads, like all other business institutions, feel like fighting for their line of work. The Old Grande Ronde . Faithful to humanity, never faultering to the extent of failure, the old Grande Ronde valley is again giving up her annual harvest of grain. Although it seemed impos sible to raise a crop under the weather conditions th;s year, nevertheless the acreage is yielding a fair average and ninny of the ranches are turning out an excellent crop. We shall nlwnys remember what Bill Craven said when he and Hurry Corbett spent n day in the valley last year. Lill is the man-on-the-ground for Swift & Co. After wo " had taken him over a portion of the Grande Ronde, lie remarked: "Well, this is the best part of Oregon I have fieen. This is a real farming section. Iowa has nothing on this valley, and no man need fear owning land at al most any price here." "; Coming from Mr. Craven, whose life bus been npenl with the lands of the south and west, whoso time has been given to growing grasses, grain and live stock, such a state ment, is of value. It once again proves the wisdom of the late Governor Withycombe who always insisted that ihe Grande Rondo valley is the largest body of rich land in the entire northwest. It's England's Turn Nou) The United States put up with Mexican atrocities years. All other nations wondered why we did it no did most of our people. But we did and that is end of the story. Now comes England's turn. Mexican bandits have just put an English woman to death. Let us See what England will do. Will she submit to this outrage of her citizens or will she take a stand and tell Mexico where to head iu ?

"There's Only one Girl In the World for Me." l CIVIC VGI.IN'HSK FANNING World's Work: Several weeks ago. New Yorkers and visitors were somewhat puzzled by a" dis play of (lags and bunting in Forty second street. This Is the kind of demonstration that is usually re served, for great public occasions, such as a national holiday, a Lib erty loan drive, or at least u bank ers' convention. But this many-colored jubila tion, and the banquets and speech makings that accompanied H, werj intended to honor a public achieve ment of a very different order. Ever since the building or the ele vated railroad structures in New , Y'ork nearly fifty years ago a j spur of this system has extended in Korty-second Btreet from Third avenue to the Grand Central sta tion. The natural uKliiiess of this trestle work was greatly emphasiz ed twelve years ago when the beautiful new Grand Central sta tion was oputied to public use. The whole architecl oral design, in deed, was largely destroyed. Twenty or thirty years ago, Hi's blight in the public streets would have aroused HI tie popular pro test. Klevatud railroads were not beautiful, but they were extremely useful, and any suggestion that they be removed on the ground that they were offensive to the eye would have seemed strange Indeed Hut this is an ever-growing de mand lu the city of New York. The demolition of the Korty-sec ond street, spur, which several citizen's unsocial ions have been ad vocating for several years, was th first victory In this campaign for the restoration of the public streets to their proper uses, and as such was celebrated by band playln; speech making, and display i bunting and flags.
