BEST YEARS TO COME.
This has baen a year of wonderful
progress In Wallowa county, yet the
progress la only beginning. With an
area larger than some Eastern
states, magnificent resources in agri
culture, fruit, live stock, timber,
mines and water for both Irrigation
and power barely touched, the most
enthusiastic re:il estate agent cannot
color too highly the future devel
opment. All these great but la. 3 it ric'us
wore awaiting the magic of modern
transportation. It has come too
late this fall to affect the record of
1908, but Is here ready to work the
tianuformatlon In 190!). The pio
neers who came to this favored land
will or should reap the choicest
grain of the golden harvest of devel
opment, but thera are thousands of
splendid opportunities here for new
fitters and cs;.ecdally for Invest
ors. Land, mines and forests, now
ui.lii 1 1 ed, will prove veritable bo
nanza when capital and labor begin
the work of development.
So while 1908 has been so far the
banner year in Wallowa county, the
years to come will far surpass It.
NEED A BRIDGE.
The Eartlett co. respondent in this
paper notej that on Thursday, Da
cembar 10, no mail was received at
that office as the ferry on which the
mall carrier croas33 the Grands
Ronda river, was not in operation be
cause of lee in the stream. Not only
Bartlett, but Grouse, Troy and the
entire Garden of Eden country suf
fered a:i Impairment of their already
poor mail service.
It Is rare of co ir3e for the ferry
to be put out of commission by Ice,
but high water and accidents help to
Isolate that great region from com
munication with the rest of the coun
y, and as the correspondent says
it is too bad there U no bridge. Tha
big rich county of Wallowa can well
uffoid to build a freo bridge acros3
the Grande Hunde river at Troy, or
in that vicinity.
The follows who were hollering so
loudly a few weeks ago trying to get
)tato:ent No. 1 legislators to violate
their pledges and vole against the
people's choice for senator, have all
taken to their ho es, and if they had
any sense of shame or decency they
would pull the ho!e3 In after them.
The declarations of two honest men
of nntlonnl prominence, like President
Roosevelt and Preddent-elect Taft,
make the anti-statement men look
pretty small. Governor Chamberlain
will probably be elected senator with
out further attempts at skullduggery
by the Multnomah gangsters, and he
will fit In nicely with the other hon-esty-before-party
men hi that body

How One Doctor Successfully Treats
Pneumonia.
' In treating pnauroonla," says Dr.
vV. J. Smith, of Sanders, Ala., "the
Dnly remedy I use for the lungs is
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. While
f couse, I would treat other symp
toms with different medicines, I have
used this remedy many times In my
medical practice and have yet failed
:o find a case where it has not con
trolled the trouble. I have used it
myself, as has also my wife for
coughs and colds repeatedly, and I
most willingly and cheerfully recom
mend it as far superior to any
other cough medicine to my knowl
adge." For sale by Burnaugh & May
