Psalm 69: 6. i2 -YEARS OK SPLENDID SERVICE Colonel Ralph R. Huron, who yesterday completed 12 years of service to his government and this community as post master of La Grande, soon will retire from his federal posi tion. And in stepping down from the post in which he has served for more than a decade, ho will carry the best wishes of the entire community. His has been a job well done, a service splendidly performed and he leaves a fine record for successors to seek to equal. During his 'period in office, Colonel Huron has built up a fine organization until today tie, La Grande post office is listed 'among the most efficient in the northwest'. Many im provements have taken place" in the last 12 years, and' most of them found the postmaster directly responsible. , As was to lie expected in view of the changing of the administration from Republican" to Democratic, a successor of the now majority party has been appointed,. Yesterday the Word came over the Associated Press wires in the Obser ver office that Victor Eckley, state representative from Union county the' last two terms and a well known La Grande mer cHant, had' been appointed-to succeed' Colonel' Huron. .. With full knowledge that a change was to be made because, of long'' honored political' practices';' the appointment of Rep. Eckley" is very gratifying not only to Ii Grande people; but to the county as a whole. A young man' with a splendid record;' there is every reason to believe Hint the newly ap pointed postmaster will continue the high type of service the city is now enjoying, and will add new laurels to his already long list of accomplishments in public and commurir ity service.
