ORGANIZED WORK is NEEDED
TO LAND TOURIST TRAFFIC

Unless Pendleton, La Grande, Ba-
ker, Walla Walla and other eastern
oregon and eastern washington towns
join together in a concerted move,
the major part of the tourist traffic
from the east will be diverted through
interior oregon, in the opinion of A
f. Alexander, one of the publishers
OF the Up-to-The-Tlmes Magazine
who has just returned from a two
weeks trip through counties east of
tjmatilla,
Ontario, vale, Burns, Bend, Prime
willie and other cities on the interior
route are organized, he says, and are
conducting an active campaign to Sc
cure the tourist traffic, They are
also trying hard to make their route
the official extension of the Columbia
Highway, contending that the Blue
mountains form natural barrier and
that the bad roads over them make
an additional obstacle.
That they are making headway in
their campaign is the substance of re-
ports received here. The La Gande
Observer In a recent issue declared
that right now two-thlrds Of the tour.
list traffic from the east Is taking the
interior route. The same paper by a
count made at Union dscertained
that there are about 20 cars a day,
east and west bound, passing over the
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-08-21

mountain rbute. 1t estimates that
each car spends on the average of IS
in La Grande which means that the
present traffic is worth 5000 day
to the city. Twice that much Is lost
by the traffic being diverted the other
way, the paper contends.
The interior route leads through a
long stretch of level fand, many miles
of which is through sagebrush. Towns
are few and far apart and hotel ac.
commodations are not the best, The
mountain route is much more scenic
and gives the tourist opportunity TO
make side trip to Wallowa Lake
or to branch off and go to Walla Wal
la and spokane.
MIR, Alexander declares that one Of
the first things to be done to secure
this triffic is to improve the roads
over the mountains. He brings word
that Judge Ply of Union county is
now ready to meet Umatilla county
on any improvement decided upon for
the Pendleton-I4a Grande road and
also for road across the mountain
By way Of Toll Gate.
While here Mr.. Alexander confer
red with Or. F. w. Vincent, chairman
of the Commercial club committee on
roads and plans for organizing to se-
cure recognitions of the mountain
route were discussed

MAY SAVE you FROM
DREAD ATTACK.

Rheumatism Is easier TO avoid than
to cure, states a well-known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly: keep
the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less
meat, but drink plenty of good water
Rheumatism is a direct result Of eat
ing too much meat and other rich foods
that produce uric acid which is alb
sorbed into the blood. It is the func-
ton OF the kidneys to filter this acid
from the blood and cast it out in the
urine; the pores of the skin are also
a means of freeing the blood of this
tmpurity. In damp and chilly cold
weather the skin pores are closed thus
forcing the kidneys to do double work.

to eliminate the uric acid which keeps
accumulating and circulating through
the system, eventually settling in the
