BUYING ENTIRE
CHELAN WATER RIGHT
BiaIock and MaIoney are Securing
Options on Holdings at cheIan
From the Lake TO the
Gorge

On Saturday of last week, Thomas
Maloney of Spokane acting for him.
selI end Doctor N. &. BlalocK of Walla
Walla, entered into agreements with
nume1o ous owners of real estate along
the Chelan river for the purchase of
their holdings. The purchases cover
nearly everything on the west bank OF
the river from the outlet of the lake to
the upper end OF the gorge, and a few
pieces on the east BANK have been bar
gained for. The purchases were made
for the purposes Of securing riparian
rights along the river The deeds,
which were made out in Doctor Bla-
lock s name, have been placed in es-
crow until the 10Th IF September. In
the meantime, Messsfs Bialock and
Maloney will endeavor TO perfect all
their plans, and be prepared ito take
over the property bargained for.
Mr.. Blalock is still bolding his option
on the CheIan Water Power company e
plant.
Il is not known for whom these men
are max ing their purchases. 1t Is ad-
lnitred that they are not buying for
themselves, and it is believed that the
real purchasers are Boston capitalists.
Whether or not this deal has any
connection with the purchase of the
Williams interests in the gorge, of
which the Leader told its readers last
week DO one seems to be able to say.
1t is reported that Jay P. Graves
has already made an assignment of his
recently acquired rights to other part
les, and there is reason to believe that
these parties are those for whom
Messrs i,lalock and Maloney are buy
ing.
Among those whost river frontage
property was purchased are NJ. M.
Foote, mos Edmunds, W. Nj. Isen.
hart, F. w. Easley, NJ. M. kingman.
Ora Kncwle Fl e. Dunham, j. +.
Cox, Mary f. Baker. William Emerson
H. F. Buckner, Jay d. Berrier, Ben
F. Smith and =. j. Trow.
1t is current report that the same
parties who purchased the Williams
interests in the gorge and at the
mouth OF the Chelan river, whether
it be Jay P. Graves and his associates
or some one else for whom he is agent
have also contracted for the Mcmillan
three. fourths interest in the eighty
acres covering the principal part OF the
gorge. 1t is said the agreed price for
this interest il $50, 0,000.-Ghslan

Mr.. w II. Voslsell desires % inform
the public that tile road over Brick MIL
dam Ii now open and ready fol- travel.
Mr.. voshell invites tile public TO inspect
tile road bed, and feels fully conyinted
! that The new dam will stand the test. He
has been very unfortunate during the past
two years, having his dam broken three
times during that period.
The continued dry weather is causing
some anxious concern among our farmers
and truckers. Rain has not fallen to any
considerable quantities for several weeks
witllthe result that vegetation is suffering.
The strawberry crop already more or less
affected by the late frosts, is abont finish
ed BY the drought and the crop will be
short in this vicinity. The dry weather
has also affected the hay crop and this
commodity will be very scarce in this
vicinity. Everything is St ffering for
want of rain and good heavy shower
will give new life to vegetation generally.
Now that the Delaware Railroad has for
mally announced that Sunday trains are
to be run on the main line and all OF the
branches Of tile road, the postmasters IN
the smaller Delaware towns are wonder
ing if the trains will carry mail. They
are interested in this phase OF the subject
because there are now no mails on Sun
day and it is possible to keep the post Oh
flee closed from Saturday night until
Monday morning. Ii there is mail on
the Sunday trains mail will have to be
handled on Sunday, and the average post
master does not view the additional work
with any special favor The residents
of the towns would also expect the post
office to be open on Sunday SO that they
might get any mail which came for them
on that day. Wehther mail is carried on |
trains vi depend Wholly upon
the decision OF the post off e &c. a tment |
in Washington, and SO far as is known the
subject has not yet been taken up.
