make tuelr appearance the SUCCESS tnat
1t was. Last Monday evening WILL
always remain with me as one OF the
brightest pages in nv life history.
Louis o. Janeck-The Fechter & jan
eek creamery located on the Upper
Natchez is developing into quite a plant.
We now have fine large stone building
and have recently added water power
by which all the separating and churn.
ing is done. We are milking SO cows,
mostly jersey stock, and expect soon to
increase to 20. We have about 100 pigs
which we figure increase in value at the
rate of 81 per head per month.
Frank d. Cook--In the early DAYS
when Ainsworth was boom town and
they were building the Snake river bridge
| was in partnership, in the saloon bust
ness. with Judge V. d. Lay who recently
committed suicide in California. He
always had crazy streaks and he must
tantrums. Judge Lay was the only
soldier ever presented with sword by
Abraham Lincoln. He promised to leave
it to me at his death but am afraid that
| will never get it, Lay must have had
considerable property as he cleaned up
$4,000 when was in business with him
and he has not known relative.
w. |. Lince-It took no persuasion for
me to accept the local agency tor the
California Consolidated Petroleum Com
pany, for judging from my past thirteen
years experience in the oil districts in
the east and California | am thoroughly
convinced that it is a safe and profitable
investment. There is one thing sure
this company has large area of the best
lands in that state, where they have
already several good paying wells in
operation. | believe before the end of
the year this company will be paying
nice dividends to its stock holders The
day is not far distant when there will be
more oil produced on the Pacific coast
than there ever has been produced in the
Pennsylvania and Canada oil fields be-
cause there are groupings OF oil from
British Columbia down to Mexico. At
Santa Barbara, Cal, the oil comes to the
surface along the salt water and covers
the surface of the ocean for distance of
twelve miles from the shore, am going
to secure two or three hundred shares for
myself, for | believe the plan OF the COM
pany safe one and secure from ever be-
ing gobbled up by the Standard Oil COM
pany.
Judge J. B. Davidson-Franklin is a
small county but it has been source of
wonder to me how the officers managed
to keep expenses OF government down
as they have. Pasco being a junction it
is to be expected that there will be more
or less crime but the county hasn't re-
CURED jury or extra bailiff in nearly
three years.
Jason Carpenter-I have two letters
from hop firms in New York which
represent locally. Both tell of the
splendid promise of the growing crop in
that state, while one says he believes
hops are low at 10 cents and would like
to take thousand bales at that price,
think | will soon be authorized to enter
the market and contract with the
growers.
George Jewell-The minute | entered
the court room during the trial of Fred
P. Dingle recognized him as one of the
convicts who escaped from the Nebraska
penitentiary at Lincoln, back in the
seventies. Some five hundred prisoners
had secured the state arms and for two
weeks held the citizens and troops at
bay. Only three men escaped and
Dngle was one Of them. He was under
sentence of life for murder.
Wallace Williams-D. +. Lesh and l
visited Toppenish on Tuesday. Mr.. Lesh
has fine crop of wheat, and I was look
ing after my farming interests. The
