Tiast Saturday we took a seat in
the bugg'y with B. C. Trowbridge,
P resident of the Grant County A fx
xicultural Sjcietv, and started fo.
Mt. Vernon to attend a meeting cf
said Society. As usual B. C. had a
'spanking fine h-am" and we werj
soon ab the fair ground j. We took
a drive around the new made track,
and we are pleased to say that we
bavc been on no track in Eastern
Oregon or Washington Territory
that pleases us so well as the Mt
Vernon track. It is a full mile, wiih
the finest home stretch imaginable.
It was laid off by Mai. Magone and
he considers it by far the finest trad;
in Oregon, and lie lias laid many of
the Oregon tracks.
The meeting was called an 1 after
fthctii:g J. J. Cozartaiul .JoelJodscn
directors to fill vacancies, the Presi
dent appointed R. Damon, Chx-.
Dn-itiu, Sr. and Joe Ilodon a com-
mittee to draft a premium list to be j
oiicrod by tne Society at tiieir urst j
Auiiiuu Fair, which will be hold on
the 15th, 3 0th and 17th of Srpt.,
3 380. Thti li.?t embraces nearly ov
ary department of iudmlry and will
appear in print soon. rlhc purses
If o - the rri'-ss arc vary small, but as
it is tiie year and the society in
'tends to pay iu full, :J1 puraoa and
jrcmium it could ntt well be olh
isrwiFc. Ii is the intention to mrJ:e
the first c -:liibiE.vn a gr:iad success,
and therefore, no roslrictions arc
placed on the purjes or premiums,
in fact Baker, Wasco, or Union coun
ty people are p&rfecily welcome to
carry oil all of then: if they can.
The thus set for the fair givjs the
horsemen from adjoining counties
ample time to come bore and get
their horses in good ilx for the races.
The Society prcpoi?:s to irca'; nil
with the best at hand and at the
name time It will allow no ,ljucke--ing'
or unfair play and hope by so
doing to gain a reputation that will
be a credit to older Sooietier.
Take Wakxisc It U a weli known
fact that the citizens of the towns in
this county are extremely careless in
regard to money, watches, an l val
uables, hence, "gentlemen of the
light lingered gentry" have but lit
tle trouble in ascertaining who has
valuable; and also where they are
kept. Now, we propose to warn
our readers that at the present ti ne
this State is cursed with tramps and
Grant County hasher full share, and
around each town are what are com
monly called "vagrants," and par
ticularly do they abide in this town.
Therefore, our citizens should be
over watchful in the near future and
lock the drors before the thief gets
in. Our duty as a journalist com
pels us to put the people on their
, guard, and wo hope "a word to the
wise will be sufficient'
1,500 cords of wood has been sold j

Mrs. Grannis is visiting friends in
this vicinity at present.
A Good OrrEtt. We are informed
that Messrs. Ktihl, Muldrick & Co.
offer to extend their pipes down
Main Street to Masonic Hall, and j hi- county i- w mb, in a I the iutei
fjrnish water and -CO feet of rubber i c -u.o of ie ait trade, something lik
hose ft r the purpose cf extinguish
ing fire, for the very low sura of $1,
000. Considering that insurance is
so high and, in many cases, nono can
be taken, we think that the proper
ty holders alonnr said street would
do a wise aet by taking advantage of
this liberal oer. A i:i2eting of the
persons concerned should bo called
forthwith and close the bargain with
the Lb jve ccmian'. Itememlc
that d Jays are exceedingly danger
our these drv times.
