Fuel Situation at La Grande.
The scarcity of coal. Inadequate
shipping facilities ond various other
reasons will be responsible for coal
selling at 110 to $11 in this city the
coming winter, according to a local
coal dealer.
According to prices demanded for
coal laid down in La Grande, the
dealer will be forced to retail the guel
at about $10.75. These prices pertain
to the coal that has been promised
La Grande dealers, but has not arriv
ed. Continued promises on the part
of the producers and the railroads
lead the dealers to believe that It will
ultimately arrive here, but at such a
cost that to realize any margin of
profit at all the retail dealer will sell
at the prices named, or even higher.
La Grande Is face to face with as
high-priced fuel as any city and per
haps before the winter is over the
consumers will be more than glad to
get It at prices which are now Indi
cated. The price continues to crawl up
ward, and at no slow rate.
Cost of coal at the mines, accord
ing to a letter received from the pro
ducers by one dealer In this city, will
be about $5.50. Adding to this the
cost of transportation, it can readily
be seen that a slight increase In prices
will shoot the retail prices to a point
scarcely attalnablo by the average
workman. La Grande Observer.
Indian With Blue Eyes.
Ont of the mysteries of Mexico If
presented by the Maya Indian, who
Inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains In
the lower part of Sonora. Tbey have
fair skins, blue eyes and light hair, and
students of ethnology have always
been puzzled to account for them.
There Is a tradition, however, that
these Indians are the descendants of
the crew and passengers of a Swedish
vessol wrecked on the Mexican coast
centuries before Columbus discovered
the new world, but Oils tradition is
founded on nothing more substantial
than a folklore tale current among
them that their ancestors came over
the big salt water hundreds of noons
ago.
An Anolent Prayer.
Old John Ward, who was pilloried
by Pops In the "nunclad" and who
actually stood In the. pillory In the
year 1727, when he was said to have
been worth 200,000, was nevertheless
a pious man. He had large estates In
London and Essex and did not omit
to pray for their welfare In the follow
ing manner: "O Lord, I beseech thee
to preserve the two counties of Middle
sex and Essex from fire and earth
quake, and as I have a mortgage In
Hertfordshire I beg of thee likewise to
have an eye of compassion on that
county, and, for the rest of the coun
ties, deal with them as thou pleaseth."
The Vulgar One.
CornbUI Magazine tells of an Eng
lishwoman of high station who bewail
ed to a friend the loss by death of
somewhat 111 bred but extremely
wealthy neighbor who had been very
liberal In his help to ber country chari
ties. "Mr. X. Is dead," said she. "He
was so good and kind and helpful to
me In all sorts of ways. He was so
vulgar, poor, dear fellow, we could
not know him In London, bat we shall
meet In heaven."
Odd Coincidence.
Not many years since a pastor In
New York state read In bis pulpit this
portion of a hymn:
Well, the delightful day will come
When my dear Lord shall take me home.
And I shall see his face
Just then be was stricken with paral
ysis and died In a few moments. Thir
ty-three years before In the same pul
pit another paBtor was reading the
very same stanza when he, too, wai
stricken and died. Scrap Book.

SheopgrowerH' State Convention.
Dan P. Smythe, of Pendleton, who
was here looking after the sale of
2000 sheep to the Union Meat Co., of
Portland, stated the Oregon Wool
growers' association will meet on
Tuesday. November 12 In The Dalles.
The session will probably last for two
o three days and will be of great In
terest and importance to all men who
are Interested in woolgrowing. Among
the prominent people to attend will
be Glfford Plnchot, of the forestry
bureau of the government, and A. F.
Potter, chief of the grazing depart
ment, along with many of the local
foresters. The delegation In congress
from Oregon is expected and most of
them have stated positively that they
will attend.
Mr. Smythe said, generally speak
ing, the sheep Interests of the north
west are In excellent condition, but
the more limited range and other
things which are showing up to mili
tate against the Industry are subjects
of greatest moment. These will be
discussed at the wooJgrowers' meet
ing, as will also the questtlon of en
forcing the scab law and marketing
of wool. He expressed a desire that
sheepmen of this section of the coun
try get together and organize by elect
ing a delegation to represent them at
the The Dalles meeting In November.

Gus Johnson Killed.
Gus Johnson, who lived In Baker
last winter and Is well known here
was killed yesterday while loading
logs at tho Stoddard Brothers' logging
camp a few miles out of Sumpter. He
was on tho load assisting In the work
when a swamp hook gave wny and
he fell 'backward to the ground break- 1
Ing his neck. Mr. Johnson was a
good, straightforward citizen, a man
who took tho world as It came with
out complaint. His remains were
enred for by his friends. linker City
Hernld,
Are you ready, Mr. Pendleton Merchant? Do the people of Pendleton
and the surrounding country know you are well stocked and fully prepared
to receive their patronage ? Have you planned your fall publicity campaign,
so that the people may be brought into closer touch and more fully acquainted
with the lines of merchandise you carry!
If not DO IT NOW.
PUBLICITY is the life of BUSINESS. The advertising of a store is,
therefore, the very life of the establishment Too much thought and care
cannot be bestowed upon it. 'Tis a poor contractor that builds a house with
out any plans the same may be said of 'the merchant whose wares are not
made known to the public by some plan or system.
Tho man who does not advertise simply because his grandfather did not,
ought to wear knee breeches and a queue.
The man who does not advertise because it costa money, should stop pay
ing rent for the same reason.
The man who does not advertise because ho tried it and failed, should
throw away his cigar because the light went out
The man who does not advertise because he doesn't know how himself,
ought to stop eating because he can't cook.
Tnke time by the forelock, prepare your advertising now, before the busy
season begins. If you wish to reach the people in a DEPENDABLE way,
place an advertisement iu the East Oregoniau, "Tho Paper That Goes
Home." Should yqu care to investigate the cost or ask about certain space,
just ring up Main 1 and the AD MAN will count it a personal pleasure to
call and pivo you any information.
