A PROMISING OUTLOOK
For the New Railwny System-
-A Motor
Line to bo First Built.
From a general standioint tho success
of the single-rail and saddle-truck rail
way system is exceeding the expecta
tions of its best friends. Much interest
is taken, especially at Portland, in the
railroad revolution, and no less than
forty-two projHisals have Ih-oh received
by the construction company to build
roads. Some are vague and chimerical ,
projects, it is true, but others are clear
and practical. It is seen from the Ore
gon Express that the company has re
ceived and is considering a proposal to
iiuihl a motor hue to a junnt live miles
out in the suburbs of East Portland. ,
Then is little question but that this will
lie the tirst road constructed on the new !
plan. It is expected that it will be in j
operation March 15.
Dr. Mahana, who was here on his way
to Freewntor, is much pleased over the ,
present outlook. He has worked hard,
and feels that his reward is near at
hand. East Oregonian.

At a meeting of the council on Wed

and discussed. There was only one hid
in, that of Dion KWfo, $0,000 for the
construction of the building complete,

The Coming Fair.
Cotnim'nring Monday next, Oetols-r
Mb, the Third annual fair of tho First
Eastern Oregon Distrtct Agricultural
Society will lie held at the grounds of
the association near La Grande, and
continue one week. The tirst fair of the
Union County Agricultural Society held
at the old grounds near Island City in
1S7; was a decided success ami for sev
eral years gradually grew letter, but
..f... .. .
iiiii-r 11 icw years, lor some cause or i
other, interest Ih-gan to die away and
after 14 years in the fall
of 1SS7 the
Iat meeting was held, In'ing verv light
ly attended; and for the last two or
three years the fair resulted in a loss to
the stockholders.
That an annual fair could be held and
made a success in tins county there is
no question, if properly managed, and
while the coining fair is partially sup
ported by the state, and the appropria
tion will probably go to some other
county in this district next year, there
should lie an effort made to hold a fair
in this county each year.
A well-conducted fair in a county like
Union is not only a source of instruction
' aml amusement, hut ot vast lvnotit to
'vating the soil and other matters of
interest to yourselves and. tho commu
nity at large.
With such an incentive to further
progress and development, why can we
not go forward to (lie attainment of
something better in tho future than we
have accomplished in tho past? Why
can't we show to the world, that we can
improve on what we havo heretofore
done and make our fair this fall one
that will be the pride of every citizen of
Union county?
All that is required to do it, is for
every man to put his shoulder to the
wheel and resolve here and now that
the coming fair slsill not only lie as
good but better thau.any previous fair.
Let there be no laggards in the race,
but let everyone hsMip and. doing, and
wo will have a fair bore next week that
will not only be a surprise to our own
people but to those -who ntiy be with us,
from a distance.

Gratitude Still Extant.
Contrary to the In-liefof some pessi
mistic people, gratitude still exists in
the nineteenth century. An eccentric
old bachelor who died in Hamburg,
Germany, a few wveks ago, left among
other licqucsts 12,000 marks to a buxom
widow of his native city. "I leave this
money," he wrote in: explanation of his
gift, "as a proof otnty gratitude for your
refusal to beeomnjiiy wife thirty years
ago. To your piaise.worthy act I owo
my life of poaco and prosperity." New
York Tribune.
