AT CENTKALIA, WASH. A meeting of the Eugene fire de partment was held in fireman a ball last night for the purpose of discuss ing the matter of securing the an nual convention of the Pacific Coast Association of Fire Chiefs next year. W. C. Yoran, chief of the local fire department, who will attend the con vention at Centralis, Wash., Septem ber 10-13, this year, was empowered by the meeting to use all possible en deavor to secure the 1908 convention for Eugene. Mr. Yoran will take along plenty of Eugene badges, and will boose this city for the next meet ing. He will take with him letters from Mayor Matlock, the Merchants' Protective Association, and the Com mercial Club endorsing the move ment for the convention here and he will have the support of 'the del egates from several other Oregon cities. The membership is not confined alone to the fire chiefs, but any mem ber of a regularly organized fire de partment is eligible to membership. The offices are held only by the chiefs. In addition to 75 or 100 del egates at each convention representa tives of the supply houses always at tend and make a display of their goods. The affair Is always a big event among the firemen of the Pa cific coast. If the convention comes here next year the -local firemen will endeavor to pay all the expenses of entertainment, and the citizens will not be asked to put up anything for that purpose. By that time the street Improvements In the business district will have been completed, and the city will be In good shape to enter tain the tire fighters. BOY STICKS TO SEAT , OF RUNAWAY WAGON One of the city delivery teams' ran away this forenoon and smashed the wagon up pretty badly. Ail the teams were standing on Park street, in the rear of the Hotel Smeede, while the drivers were assorting the parcels. One of the teams became frightened at something and started to run. A Bmnll boy by the name of Fuller was In the seat at the time and tried to stop the horses, but without sun cess. He stayed with the wagon, how ever, and the team dashed out Oak street to Ninth, then to Paari and on Pearl to Eighth street, where they turned and landed on the sidewalk In front of Warnock Bros.' feed sta ble. Three of the wheels on the ve hicle wore wrecked, and the top of the wagon was badly damaged. The horses were unharmed and the boy on the Beat escaped without Injury, although he was pretty badly frightened. 14,1127.05 100,695.02 43.634,75 41-..?38.8 4,336 IS HAND CONCERT IN EAST PARK TONIGHT Following Is the program for the band concert In the East Park to night: .

EUGENE MAY EE INCLUDED IN TRI-STATE LEAGUE Two first-class teams In Portland, one at Salem, one at St. Johns, and two more located one each at either Vancouver, Eugene, Kelso or Astoria, such are the probabilities for next year's make-up of the Trl-Cty league, says the Portland Journal. With the end of the 1907 season now In sight, the Tri-City managers are sizing up the results, looking over the situation and figuring on avoid ing during the next season the mis takes that have been made this one. For its first year the Tri-City league has succeeded very well as a minor baseball body. The players in a leading team, such as the Frakes, have averaged from 18 . to $10 a game, while, those of the clubs far down in the percentage column have averaged $3 or 14, In addition to ex penses. Besides, there Is a goodly sum In the league treasury. Grounds at the Ouks. . With the experience of this year and the confidence Its success has brought the' Tri-City managers be lieve, they, will have a league next year that will have a large following. One of the greatest handicaps this year was the want of. local grounds. A diamond at the Oaks was promised early In the season; but It dld not ma terialize. However, the' proposition will be taken up once more, and it Is is probable that the resort will have a diamond ready for the opening of tne season or 1908. Another mistake was that thnre were too many clubs In the league. especially In Portland. The plan now Is to have a six-team league, and to have but two local teams Instead of four, as at present. The Frakes will probably remain Intact, and the three other clubs will be consolidated Into one strong aggregation. Snlem Certainty. That Salem will be in the Tri-City league next year Is next to a certain ty. Fred W. Gardner, publicity mart of the league, took a trip to the Cap tlal City last week, and before he returned he was given the most sub stantial assurance of support. A prominent business man of the city offered to finance a club at Salem to the extent of $1000. The now subur ban electric railway Is another thing that will help by cheapening f raver ing expenses. Unless Astoria can secure better grounds It will be dropped from the circuit. The Astoria fans are very loyal, but they cannot be expected to pay 75 cents every time they want to see their team play ball. The ad mission fee at Astoria is only 25 cents, but the grounds are so far up on a hill that a round trip in a bus costs 50 cents. Woodbttrrr will be dropped, and probably Kelso. It Kelso and Asto ria are both dropped, the fifth and sixth clubs will probably go to Eu gene and Vnncouver. Eugene Is one of the best baseball towns in the state and Vancouver should pay by reason of Its proximity. Another Improvement the clubs will trv to make next year Is to keen their original teams together as much as possible and not to change their players only when they prove unfit to hold up their end of t.he gnme. Changing the men around demoraliz es the loams nnd disgusts the fnns. The Trl-CIty season will end next month, and then the managers will at once begin to moke definite plans for next year'B season. One thing is cer tain tho Idea of quitting the game Is the farthest thing from their minds.

Just a word to those who wish to invest in Land IN the first place, we ask the question why people buy cheap land whan, from every point of view, good land Is much more profitable?' For Instance, poor land which cannot be worked at a profit. You can't pay for 1t In a hundred years. But on the other hand, If you buy good land that you can work at a profit, it will eventually pay for Itself, whatever the price may be; and again, good land Is much easier worked. If you want to rafse stock, good land Is the cheapest. It 'ou want to raise grain, good land Is the cheapest. If you want to raise trait or veget ables, good land la the cheap est. Why? Because It takes' no more to plow It; because it takes ho more to harvest It. So It is clear to see that if It pay? to worfc poor land, ft sure ly pays to work good land. So when you buy, buy good land, and then if you snould want- to sell It, you have no trouble In disposing of It. So If you want good land at the right price, come and see us. We have made arrangements to sub-divide some ot the best large tracts In the country, to suit those who may wish to pur chase their land.
