County Press OPINION.

For over thirty years H. H. Allen has
been a citizen of this county above re-
proach. He has been identified with its
progress, in business transactions OF
large amounts, and over large terri
tory. His integrity and probity of bus
mess character were well shown in the
Snipes failure several years ago, when
he had every opportunity to protect
himself, and refused to do it. No better
nomination for treasurer has ever been
made in the county, and it ought to be
ratified by substantial majority next
Nov. 4.--The Washingtonian bravely
and manfully comes to the defense Of
A. j. Splawn from the senseless and
puerile attack OF the Republic because Of
Mr.. Splawn's lack of grammatical edu.
cation. The Washingtonian says plainly
that it will make votes for Splawn.-

Cantata, BeIShazzar.

Interest is developing in the coming
event of the season to be given at Lar
sons opera house, November 21st-22nd.
The cantata, Belshazzar, is replete with
beautiful solos, duets and choruses not
to mention other features of equal i'm
portance and attractiveness. Professor
Robinson will be here in a short time to
begin active work and all those who
wish to participate in the play will be-
stow favor on the ladies of St. Mich
aels Guild, by reporting to Mr.. George
Vance to that effect. All those who
took part in the successful cantata
Esther, are most urgently requested to
again give their services to Belshazzar.

Wants Egg Plums.

]. OBJ. Scoby, the fruit cannery man
of Olympia, is securing the country for
egg plums. In recent interview with
one of the daily papers OF this city he
said
81 find the same difficulty in Oregon
as in Washington" he observed, "and
that is, fruit growers do not pay enough
attention to raising the yellow egg plum.
The specie cans beautifully and where
ever it has gone in the markets there
have always come back orders for more.
l cannot secure enough of the product
to satisfy the trade. The people of the
mountain states and east of the Missis-
sippi valley are just beginning to learn
of the excellence Of this specie. Oregon
farmers should set out more of these
trees. 1t will pay them sufficiently
although they may have to wait long
time to gather the first crop. Six years
is required to develop the yellow egg
plum. Many are discouraged from rails
ing them for this reason. The blue
Damson is also choice variety.
"Perhaps it Is now too late in the sea-
son to expect much, but l have visited
several places, such as Candy and New
berg, and cannot scrape up enough to dc
me. They are not raising them. One
honest farmer wrote me be had so bear
ing egg plum trees in his orchard. When
l went to his place found that instead
all but three of the trees were of the sill
yer variety.

The Eolian Concert.

1t is not often that the music loving
portion of Crested Butte receive such
treat as was given them by the Aeolian
Male Quartette assisted by Mrs. Redding
and Miss Lulu Baker, at the U. G.
church last Tuesday evening.
The church was crowded, in anticIpa-
tion of something unusually good, and
the audience was not to be disappointed.
The attention was very good during
the program, although there were large
number of children present. The child
rem were greatly delighted with some OF
the numbers. especially with the one
about the school teacher. Most of the
numbers rendered, with the exception of
the encores. were classical
The hearty applause proved the appre-
citation of our people, and the willingness
with which the encores were responded
to, showed the truth OF the statement
made by Mr.. Read, that our entertainers
came to US as friends, and not merely for
the money to be from the concert.
The enumeration in the singing Of the
Quartette, as well as that in all Of the
solos was especially excellent. Both the
Interpretation and the execution OF the
selections rendered by the pianist, Miss
Lulu Baker, are to be highly commend
ed. Mrs. Redding's ability as whis
tier is truly wonderful. 1t is generally
said that woman cannot whistle wher
any one is looking at her. This state
ment is certainly disproved by Mrs. Red
ding.
After the program. delightful little
reception was held in the lecture room
of the church. The pleasure already ex
perienced by listening to the music wal
heightened by meeting the musicians
and learning something of their person
alities.
The Misses Bessie Miner and Cor,
Bragg presided at the punch bowl, ant
dispensed the delightful beverage, in ,
very charming manner.
