MEET AT Odd Fellows' Hall at iieppner, every third Bstardar of each month. Q. W.Khka, Adj. O. W. Smith, Com. THURSDAY. APR 14, 1904. La Grande seems determined in her fight for the county seat. The County Court of Union county has decided the relocation of the county Beat from Union to La Grande mav be voted upon by the people of Union county at the general elec tion to be held in June. At last Congress haa paced the Lewis Clark Fair bill, which ap propriate $475,000 for that his torical event. This makes nearly $2,000,000 for the fair, including appropriations by various states for their individual state exhibits. It is now up to the fair commis sion to make the exposition a success. The open season for trout finning now being on it stands the finny tribe in hand to keep on the look out until November. There is no more popular sport than angling. It affords needen exercise and calls for physical and mental activities that are a welcome change from indoor life. The coming in clo e touch with nature is in it-elf in vigoratinar to both body and mind, and men in all stages of life, from the budding of youth to the gray haired man of 70, all enjoy the (port alike. The Telegram gives some facts tmlow in regard to opening of the Columbia river that will be of In tereit to all Eaetfra Oregon. It says: As time passes there ap pears to be a growing doubt as to the construction of the por.age road in accordance with the will of the peo le of this state, as ex pressed through their representa tives in the Legislature. The sen timent is being strengthened that the right-of-way for the road and that required for the construction of the canal conflict in such man ner as to render infeaeible the acquisition of both. In this view of the matter the argument is that the permanent improvement takes precedence, and the public is being gradually educated to the abandon ment of the portage road project. In this apparent drift of sentiment pertaining to the attainment of an open river, or at least to the early realization of conditions that will be the equivalent thereof, there is a strong element of doubt as to whether the interests of this Columbia River territory would best be terved if it fhould ultima tely prevail. Admitting the dif ficul ies that are involved in the situation, the fact is as incontro vertible now as when the portae- biil passed the Legislature, that the construction of the road in sures immediate relief to the peo ple who live above the rapids on the Columbia River. As between what is promised in this consider ation and what will result from the construction of the canal, the element of time cuts a most signi ficant figure. The history of river improvement in this state, that has been accomplished by Con gressional aid, is not calculated to be reasuring to those who would anticipate the early completion of the canal. From any reasonable basis it may safely Ikj asrumed that nearly, or quite, a decade will pass beforo the Columbia River is finally opened by this improve ment. This is a conclusion borne out by events in the past and the strong probabilities; of tin future. What is o be done due ing those ten years, or possibly a longer period? The appropriation for the construction of the portage road was the answer given by the people of Oregon through their Legislative representatives. Is it for the best interests of the state that this answer be allowed to dissipate in a cloud negation, consisting of poet:legislative doubts and difficulties? LEXINGTON ITEMS D. P. Doherty wss in town Friday He has been herding s .eep for the past three weeks. Uuite a number ol the Rebekahs went to Heppner Saturdiy evening to attend lodge. It is rumored that D. M.
