Barker Co. believes in all kinds of improvements and in the neat appearance of every thing connected with its big store.

Marble, as engineer of the electric plant Mr. Marble left this morning for a month's vacation in Van couver where Mrs. Marble is visiting her parents. Mr. Mar ble has earned a well-deserved rest having been on the straight night shift at the plant for 13 months and 9 days. It will be remembered that Mr. Walker installed the electric plant in this city nearly three years ago. The instrumentation of the Arlington band which did much to enliven the celebration was as follows: Cornets, Mrs. J. D. Brown, Dr. C. E. Kennedy, Mr. Santo, W. B. Fisher, Earl Snell. Altos R. S. Lamoreaux, Miss Eva Emrick, Miss Edith Clark. Tenors Alfred Skei, Nordert Laughridge; Clarinet John Mad den, Jr.; Slide Trombone, Mrs. C. E.

The injured man was driven in Cook's automobile to Dr. Gavey's office where attention was given to the bruise. It may be a week or two before Mr. Linnville can attend to his duties on the farm.

Holding that the charter of Condon does not supersede the local option law, Judge Littleneld quashed the writ of review ins tituted by G. W. Raper. Unless an appeal is taken and upheld by the supreme court the county must remain dry." Straws from the Wheat Fields. Crops in the Clem region are not faring as badly as at first repor ted. Wherever the land was clean and well cultivated and fall grain sown the crops are doing reasonably well and fair yields seem assured. Harvesting on some of the Clem ranches began the first of the week. In the Condon neighborhood the harvest will not start for two weeks. Wheat growers have apparent ly been unduly scared over crop prospects. Reports for aver age crops have reached this office; naturally it is difficult to resign oneself to a mere average crop after the bumper yield of last year. Frank Moore brought to town more wheat samples from his ranch, the middle of the week. They made up as fine a bunch of wheat as could be desired and promises to go 25 bushels to the acre. Al Moore also was show ing some wheat practically as good. Other fanners in the Globe office said that their wheat looked just as good as that of Mr. Moore's. Interesting Council Meeting. Council meeting to be held Monday evening promises to be interesting. The Wasco County Electric company will ask for a franchise over certain streets in Condon; the vacancy caused by the resignation of Councilman Hardman will be filled; a succes sor to Arthur Schilling who filed his resignation as water rent col lector will be chosen; a number of the saloon men will ask for a refund of part of their license money. The Condon Electric company may ask for new rates on street lights. With the sum mer season on and the closing of the saloons the local company has lost a considerable revenue and it may be compelled to shut down at midnight Cone to the Mountains. A crowd of Condon boys left Wednesday morning for a week's outing and general good time in the mountains of Grant county. The destination of the party is Wall creek which is famous for its scenery as well as its shady nooks. The party was composed of 'Paul Balsiger, Ralph Ells worth, Doc Graham, Jim Stev enson, Lester Beeson, Earl and Victor Delashmutt Kenneth Welsohns, of Clem, joined the merry-makers. Communication. To the Editor Condon Globe, Dear Sir: Kindly allow me space in your prominent paper to correct a statement made that, if left uncorrected, might reflect on my integrity. Mr. H. W. Pauling made the statement to Mr. W. Jost, of Clem, that I had taken the authority on myself of making the program issued by Mr. R. L. Hunt and myself and that the same was unofficial. I wish to state right here that the program in question was giv en to The Globe reporter by the (official) committee themselves who were appointed for that purpose, and that Mr. Pauling knew this and was not telling the truth when he made the statement and I can prove that the above statement is absolutely true as I had nothing whatever to do with getting up the pro gram. With thanks for the space, I am Yours Respectfully, Chas. H. Williams I may gouge you a little on ten cants worth of nails or a two bit pocket knife, but if you are paying over a $3.75 rate for nails by the keg, or $5.25 a hundred fee. for half inch galvanizedoipe, or if you are paying more cr. anvof the large articles man iv. sell them for, you are biting yoM own nose off with a stom- If you want to save wels. and your money at Vi" yr Price 500a i , THE GLORIOUS FOURTH (Continued from pngel) Batteries-1st game, Clem Wel sohns and McHride; for Condon, Rinehart and Stinchflvld.
