law, now in effect in oregon, by which
a city may issue bonds and take liens
on private property for improvements.
the cost of paving may be paid off In
10 annual installments making the in
stallment on a 50-foot front $35 per
year.
This cost is insignificant, when 1t
is considered that paving has increas-
ed the value of Main and Court street
property in that city in the paving dis
trict, about rs per cent.
"Umatilla county is now harvesting
a $500, 900 bushel wheat crop and the
bulk of it has already been sold at
prices ranging from 6S to 10 cents.
Practically all of this money is COM
ing into Pendleton banks and conse-
quently the city is very prosperous"
The street paving and concrete side
walks of Pendleton, which have
added so much to the appearance and
value of Pendleton property, are
heartily commended by the Observer
to the business men and property
owners of La Grande, which has a
better foundation for a large popula-
tion than any other city in eastern
Oregon.
The start made by La Grande In
laying 5000 or more feet of cement
walks this season is very praise
worthy but our citizens should moi
stop until practically all the walks are
made of this material. What is goot
for Pendleton or Eugene is certainl,
| good for La Grande.

OLD LAWS ARE GOOD ENOUGH.

The suit for the dissolution of the
Standard Oil trust, in which the tes-
timony was to have been taken in
this city yesterday and which was
postponed until Thursday, was
brought under the Sherman antitrust
act, says the New York World.
The Sherman antitrust act is sew
enten years and two months old.
Determination in Judge lands
court in Chicago whether the Chicago
and Alton railroad shall be immune
from prosecution under the Elkins
act for granting the Standard Oil
company rebates was postponed three
weeks. II the company is not i'm
mune It is liable, In the extreme of
the law, to pay s2s,240,000 in fines
the same sum that was recently
assessed against the Standard Oil
company of Indiana for accepting
these rebates.
The Elkins law is four and half
years old.
The Interstate commerce act is
twenty years and four months old.
Under these three acts and their
successive amendments the federal
cases have been fought by which the
power Of great corporations to do
harm is being shorn away. The work
might have been done earlier; the
tools were ready and keen.
The people are heart and soul be-
hind the administration In doing 1t
now. No new laws seem to be ne
cessary.

The La Grande Observer Says:
Otto Didion, who, with Mrs. Didion
and little son. has been visiting in
Pendleton for several days. has return
ed home. They formerly lived in Pen
dleton and Mr., Didion speaks enthus-
iastically of the improvements made
in the past two years in the Umatilla
county seat.
"The IL blocks of bitulithic street
paving which Pendleton has laid upon
her two principal streets gives that
city n metropolitan appearance, said
he today. "Pendleton is also con-
structing concrete sidewalks every
where, and is now engaged in ma
cadamizing 35 blocks in the residence
district.
"The concrete sidewalks which are
being laid are 12 feet wide, and add
much to the appearance of the streets
as well as to the cash value of the
property. Everywhere in the business
districts where they formerly had mar
row plank sidewalks, they are now
| laying concrete.
1.-The paving is not such costly
proposition when its benefits are con-
sidered. 1t costs about $230 pei
square yard, including the curbing
making the total cost for 50-foo
front about s3S5. Under the Bancroft

ALBERTA NOT SUNNY
Snow Has Fallen I'm the "Wheat Belt''
Already.

That the fluently advertised cal
berta country" is not the real land of
milk and honey, is evidenced by the
following letter, addressed to the
Union, and written by Theodore Ben
nett, formerly of this city, but now a
resident of Raymond, Alberta, says
the Walla Walla Union.
81 wish to inform you of a very
severe storm which has been raging
for the past two days. Snow has
fallen to depth of nine inches. Crops
were laid flat and all grain is in a
very bad shape. The crops, as a
whole, were very good, and every
thing looked toward a bountiful har-
vest. l may say, however, that the
beet sugar crop is fine, and l am fort
unate in having 225 acres of good
beets.
You may use this letter as you
please, but my advice to anyone who
wishes to leave Washington or even
the United States is not to part with
everything they have until they spend
a winter in Canada"
