FROM THE ENTERPRISE.

1t is thought by many growers here
that strawberry picking will begin by
the middle of May. If such is the
case prices ought to be good this
year, as the berries should get in the
market ahead of those from any
other important shipping locality.
They are blooming nicely now and
the vines are making strong and
healthy growth. The crop promises
to be large.
G. G. Weatherell, of Carson, was in
town the other day on business. Mr..
Weatherell is very enthusiastic over
the prospects of railroad down this
side of the Columbia river in the near
future. He believes the Northern
Pacific will begin the construction
work this year and that the road will
be completed in less than two years.
Mr.. Weatherell has studied the rail-
road situation very closely and these
predictions are the result of his
research.

Doctor Held for Murder.

Denver-A Republican special from
San LUIS. Colorado, Tuesday, says: Dr..
f. N Smith is in Jail charged with the
murder of J. E. Lewis, whom he is ac-
cused of killing ON the streets here yes
terday. According to friends of Dr.
Smith, who were witnesses of the af-
fair, he shot in self-defense. 1t is
claimed by those who are supporting
Smith in his troubles that Lewis. on
sighting the doctor. made an attempt
to draw revolver. He was too slow,
however. Smith shooting first and with
deadly effect. This is also the story
of Smith.
The killing, according to those who
know both men, arose from quarrel
of long standing. Both came from tle
same town in Tennessee and the feud
is said to have originated there. Lewis
was a painter and carpenter by occu-
patton and had lived here several years.
