AN IRRIGATING SCHEME
The First Bench of the Columbia
Across From Wenatchee
20 Have Water

1t viii only be question of time
when the large fat directly across the
Columbia river from Wenatchee will
be irrigated. ". G. Steward, L. s.
civil engineer, with headquarters in
Spokane, was in the city last week
gathering irrigation data and measur-
ing the flow Of the Wenatchee, Entiat
and Chelan rivers with a view OF har-
Messing the power for government irri-
cation purposes.
Mr.. Steward is an old friend of L. V.
Wells. and he stated in a course Of con-
yersation with Mr.. Wells that at no
distant day water would be flowing on
all the fiat between Wenatchee and
Rock Island in Douglas county, and
that electric power for that purpose
would be transmitted from one Of the
small streams flowing into the Colum-
bia, probably the Chelan river. OF
course this only the first step in that
direction, but surveys viii follow soon.
Mr.. Steward is an enthusiast on irri-
cation. having had the great govern
ment irrigation project in hand at Salt
River, Arizona, which IS now in course
I Of construction. There a dam IS being
built $50 feet high which viii not only
furnish water direct to the land below
the same, but transmit electric power
twenty miles away to operate gigantic
pumps which viii irrigate thousands of
acres Of arid lands.
The fiat in question IS IS fertile, and
would produce as well, as any land in
the Eenatchee valley, If it was irri-
gated, and if the government takes
hold Of the project it viii soon be grow
ing the famous big red apple.-Ad-
vance.

Mr.. Fred L. Brender who has for
several years conducted a successful
dairy business in the Chumstick valley
near Leavenworth, told us last Satur-
day that he had named his place the
Nine Deer Creamery. The name Is
taken from a mountain near his place.
Years ago when the first white settlers
came to this country there roamed
around this mountain, herd OF deer,
consisting Of nine head, which were
chased for years,and often shot at, but it
seems without effect. The herd seemed
to bear a charmed existence. No one
was ever able to hit one Of them. They
could be seen almost any time, and al
ways on this particular mountain. FL
nally. some five years ago they disap-
peared. and have not been seen. since.
We have gotten off the subject though
We want TO tell you about Mr. Bren-
deris butter dairy. His product Is sold
in this city aud enjoys an eviabie rePu-
tatiou. He receives 80 to 40 cents per
pound the year around. He came here
from Kansas and is Thoroughly Wel
uleased withis country.

THISYEAR
IIason's Livery Barn ana perriam's
House Burued Saturday.

/ Last Saturday about two O'Clock fire
broke out in the rear of C. H. Mason's
I livery barn in a house that Mr.. Mason
used as dwelling. The house was
connected with the barn by wood
shed. all of which was destroyed togeth
er with a small dwelling recently built
bv G. S. Merriam. Fortunately there
was no wind. Had there been the least
wind, there is no doubt that the largest
part OF the town would have been de-
stroyed.
By the heroic work Of citizens the
house belonging to G. S. Merriam, oc-
eupied by J. T. McAneny, was prevent
ed from taking fire. Had this house
caught fire two others belonging to Mr..
Merriam. one of which IS his residence,
would have burned. together with the
building in which the Echo is located.
No effort could have saved them. Burn
/ ing embers set fire TO a house belong
ing to Mrs. Hines twice, but the fire
was put out before it had made any
headway.
The writer was the third man at the
fire and was proceeded but few sec
onds by DR.. ". NJ. Mccoy. The name
of the first man we do not know. For
at least three or four minutes after We
arrived the fire had not yet made its
way through the roof. Having caught
between the ceiling and roof from a
stove pipe. \ half dozen buckets of
water would easily have put the fire
out. but it was five or ten minutes be
fore any water could be had. The tank
from which the town is supplied
through a three-quarter inch pipe, was
about empty. There were a half doz-
en- water bydrants near the scene of
the fire but none of them would run.
! It is a well known fact that the water
! system of this town consists OF small
tank elevated about twenty feet above
the surface of the ground from which
the water is conveyed to the houses in
a three-quarter inch pipe. There is no
water main. The first twenty or thirty
! feet from the tank there is a two inch
pipe. but all the balance Of the water
pipe is three-quarter inch. If one con-
sumer is drawing drink all the bal
ance have 60 wait until he gets through,
then each one must take his turn. Ii
two open their hydrants at the same
time the water trickles out in a feeble
stream about half as large as lead
pencil. Trying to fight the fire with
this kind of supply is, OF course, use
less, and, as heretofore, the people just
stood around and let the fire burn The
water that was used to prevent the
house in which Mr.. McAneny lived,
from taking fire, was carried from the
Wenatchee river.
The Losses
C. q. Mason's loss on barn and con-
tents was approximately one thousand
dollars with $500 insurance. G. S. Mer-
riam on dwelling $500. The Merriam
house in which Mr.. McAneny lived was
slightly damaged which is covered by

evening. and just after nightfall
started out to take In the sights of
a live city They proceeded out
Pike street until they reached the
residence ofCapt. Reedy. OF course
they had some very important ~
business to transact with Policeman
Reedy, which followed later. Mr..
Reedy being absent from home
Mrs. Reedy answered the bell call.
One of the men Intercepted the
lady as to the number of inmates In
her house. Mrs. Reedy did
not make any reply, but
promptly closed the door and
telephoned her husband what
had occurred. The three would
be sports were soon apprehended
by the officer and taken to the city
building, where they were made to
face the Mayor to the tune of $40
each and costs. We would advise
these men to secure the services of
a competent guide the next time
they desire to explore the tender
loln districts of Sistersville. The
men should not only have been
fined heavily for their inexcusable
blunder, but the Mayor should have
given them fee lodging In the city
bastile over night.

In accordance with our desire to give
our customers the best possible service
at the lowest prices, we have decided
to discontinue the practice of allowing
a discount of per cent on retail
monthly bills, and therefore give no.
tice that on and after the list of Mo-
vember, 1904, no discount whatsoever
will be allowed on any groceries sold
in our stores. ALI groceries Will be
sold at pet prices, on basis OF spot
cash or thirty days settlement, and
there will be no exception made to this
rule. Purchases made in our retail
departments up to the 1st of Noyem-
Der will, of course, be subject to the
per cent discount as heretofore.
The discount question has frequently
been the cause of disputes and dissatis-
faction and we believe this arrange
ment will improve our relations with
our patrons, while it will at the same
time enable us to more adequately meet
the keen competition prevailing in our
line of business, and to give our Gus
toners the benefit of the closest prices.
