The Banquet.
It would be hard to say too much
of the banquet at the Hotel Enter
prise, .where Host Blanchard did him
self proud and not only pleased but
delighted everybody present. An
other decidedly splendid feature of
the banquet was the presence of
nine members of the Improvement
League, under the direction of Mrs.
Dr. Moore, as waitresses. The la
dies started out to earn a dollar each
nine dollars for the league, to be
given to the cemetery improvement
fund. They devoted their services
to that end, with that intention.
But on explanation, of the situation
ty Toastmaster Daniel Boyd, the
banqueters "warmed" to the idea,
and "tipped' the ladles to the addi
tional sum of $37.00, making a to
tal of $46.00 for the cemetery im
provement fund.
This work of the temporary wait
resses was the crowning glory of
the whole event. It Illustrated pre-
cisely what Mr. Richardson had said.
that the ladies as helpers of the bus-
lines men, are simply invaluable
land indispensable. K illustrated
what the ladle can do In becoming
I aa auxiliary force to the local Com-
, The ladies who thus donated time
and labor so advantageously were
as follows: Misses Katherlne Kay,
Elfie Lomach, Cora Berland, Alta
Davis, Lucile Ccrklns, Ethel Weaver,
Anna Richards, Joyce Craig, and Mrs.
Frank Sheets, under the "head wait
ress, ' Mrs. Dr. Moore. And though
It was the first experience of them,
all in such work, not an accident
nor an incident occurred to mar the
clock-like work of this coterie of
fairies.. -
' Six Course, Dinner.
Host and Hostess Blanchard; did
themseles proud in the six-course din
ner. It was dainty throughout. There
were no long waits. Everything was
In hand" from start to finish, and
was simply fine.
- The Speakers.
Attorney Daniel Boyd served as
toastmaster, and - acquitted himself
ably, humorously, and with a rep
artee rloht off the reel for every
congenial dig" from the tables. At
torney Burleigh, Attorney Trill of
Joseph, .W. H. Dil worth and Attor
ney D. W. Sheahan responded, to
toasts, with numerous speakers call
ed upon to lend wisdom and bright
ness to the occasion. Among the lat
ter were Judge Crawford of La
Grande, Judge Knowles of the same
ity, Tom Richardson of Portland,
and F. A. Clarke of "six miles this
side of Joseph." Mr. Clarke has
an inimitable style that ingratiates
his words into the minds of every
body and, makes him a . host of
friends.
The banquet was completed about
o'clock, and those present reluct
antly bade their guest, Tom Richard
son, adieu, first giving him three
cheers and a "tiger." The latter
received- the hearty compliment with
pleasure and deep feeling, and the
80 persons representing the 80 cov
ers at the banquet board, filed off
to their homes with a new spirit
awakened in them and a new deter
mination to labor for Wallowa
county.

S. K. CLARK,
Oregon for Wa'lowa County.
In the matter of the final report of
the Grand Jury:
To the Hon. J. W. Knowles, Judge
of the Circuit Court of the State
of Oregon for Wallowa County:
We, your G-rand Jury, havlngi com
pleted our labors, beg leave to sub
mit this our final report.
We have been- in session In aU
five days, and during this time) have
returned into court nine true bills
and three not true bills of indictment.
We have examined the offices of
the Sheriff, County Clerk and! Treas
urer of the county, and find these
officers well housed, and when their
offices are furnished with the furni
ture how ordered for them by the
County Court, they will In our opin
ion be models of safety, convenience
and comfort, both for the officers and
the general public having business
to transact therein. We have care
fully examined the books kept by the
Sheriff and Clerk, so far as our lim
ited time and facilities ,wlll permit,
and find said books neatly,, care
fully and correctly kept, and said of
ficers prompt, careful and efficient,
in the discharge of their duties, and
in 'the keeping of the 'records' of the
county. We have examined into the
county Jail and prison of the county
and when the same lis finished with
the steel cells and furniture now or
dered by the County Court therefor,
the same w"l be a safe, s anitary
prison, where prisoners can be safe
ly kept and properly cared for. The
new court house which has Just been
completed is a modern, substantial,
stone building, as near fire proof as
it can be made, coatalns ample, con
venient and a comfortable room for
the holding of Court and good, con
venient rooms for all the county of
ficers and Jury roams, and when fur
nished as contemplated by the coun
ty court w'1' be all that the people
of the county could wish for courtr
house purposes. , This court house 'la
a credit to the public spirit of the
county, and to the County Court
who had charge of Its erection.
We recommend that the court
house grounds be cleaned of Its rub
bish as soon as -convenient,, that the
grounds be filled in and leveled and
seeded down to lawn grasses, that
shade trees be planted around , the
grounds and at suitable and convenl-
lent places In the grounds, and that
Lhe grounds be improved generally to
harmonize with the. court house build-.
ing Itself, and in- the doing of this
work we recommend -that persons
serving terms in th county Jail be
employed therein.-
We especially desire to commend
our efficient' sheriff for his Industry
and work in the collection of the
taxes of the 'county, and especially
in collecting back taxes due the coun-
ty, and in the manner in which he
and his deputies have worked upon
these delinquent lax rolls, collected
all that is possible to collect and! in
this manner saved to the county
thousands of dollars. .
We further find that while the
county school superintendent has a
good, comfortable room in the court
house that he has not proper f urnl-
ture, especially in the way of files
for his papers and records and we
therefore recommend that the coun
ty court immediately procure for his
office all necessary files for the safe
and orderly keeping and filing away
of the papers and records of his of
fice. We desire to thank Your Honor
for the prompt, careful and conscien
tious manner in .which you have dis
patched the business of this term
of court, and for your uniform cour
tesy to the Grand Jury, the attor
neys appearing before you and their
clients. These matters are in the
Interest of the fair impartial admin
istration, of Justice and have our
hearty approval.
We desire to thank the district at
torney by appointment for this term
of court, T. II, Crawford, and the
deputy, Mr. Dill, for the manner -in
which they have aided us la the
discharge of our duties, and the
sheriff, bis deputies- and other coun
ty officers for the willing aid they
have given whenever called upon.
And now having finished our work
fo this term of court we request
that we may be discharged and al
lowed to return to our homes.
Respectfully submitted thla 13th
day of May A. D. 1910.
