SPOKANE INLAND
EMP|REEXCURS|0N
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. HAS
ARRANGED FOR NINETY-DAY
TRIP FROM SPOKANE TO
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.

Spokane, Wash, Nov. 25.-Spo-
kane chamber of commerce, of which
Frederick E. Goodall is president
has completed the preliminary ar
rangements for it's second annual
Spokane-Inland Empire excursion to
Los Angeles. The trip will be made
in a special train over the Oregon
Railroad & Navigation company
line, and the Union Pacific system,
leaving Spokane at o'clock the eve-
ming of February 5. The accOmmo-
datiOns are limited to 225 persons,
or as many as took the trip last win
ter; when Walla Walla joined in the
journey to the land of sunshine and
flowers:
The party will arrive at Portland
in time for lunch, after which the
Portland commercial club, of which
Tom Richardson is manager, will en-
terrain the excursionists at a recep-
ton and banquet in its new quarters.
Stops will be made at Mejford and
points in Oregon, also at Shasta
Springs, Oakland and Berkeley, the
party remaining in San Francisco
two days, visiting Golden Gate park,
Mount Tamalpais and the tavern,
also the grove of big trees near Santa
Cruz. One day will be passed at San
Jose and there will be a trip of 80
miles through the Santa Clara valley
orchards, visiting also Del Monte and
! taking the drive in carriages and au-
tomobiles along the seashore. The
party also plans to visit PasO Robes
and Santa Barbara, also the historic
mission near the latter point. There
will be reception and series of en-
! tertainments by the chamber of COM
merce of Los Angeles, where a week
will be passed in visiting nearby
points Of interest.
This gives promise of being the
best excursion train that has ever
been run out of the Pacific North
west said l.. G. Monroe, secretary
of the Spokane chamber of commerce
who, with H. c. Munson, city ticket
agent of Spokane, and William Nc
Murray. general passenger agent OF
the o. R. & ~, Portland, has charge
of the arrangements, 'and | believe
that every berth will be sold month
before the party leaves. Every or
who took the trip last February was
pleased with the arrangements made
for their convenience on the trip
to Southern California, and all ex
pressed themselves delighted Over
the receptions accorded the party In
Oregon and California. We expect to
have fully as large and representa-
tive party as on the first excursion.
I'VE have in preparation a souve
mir booklet. which will contain oul
itinerary and personnel Of the party
also illustrations and information o.
the places we will visit and in add
ton to this we will have illustrated
! booklets and souvenirs of Spokane
and the Inland Empire and car Of
fruit, among it some of the prize
winning exhibits at the National APP
pie show in Spokane. December Z tt
t12, for distribution among oul
friends in California. AS the tickets
are good for 80 days with stOp-over
privileges at any point in either di'
rection, it is likely that the major
ity of our party will pass most of the
time in California"

NARROW ESCAPE FROM FIRE.

Capt. Geo. Evans, whose home Is
in the lower Squillchuck, came near
ly losing his home Monday. He had
built a fire there in the morning,
and some time about nine or ten he
came to town. About two o'clock,
his neighbors, Messrs Moore and
Quinn, were passing the house and
saw flames bursting out of the room.
They broke in the door and after a
strenuous few minutes succeeded in
putting out the flames. A defective
flue was the cause of the trouble.
The house is not a very valuable one,
but Capt. Evans has personal effects
to the value of $500 to $500, and a
fire would have proven quite expen-
sive for him.

INQUIRIES REGARDING A CLOSED
TOWN.

City Clerk Sam Sumner had long
letter this morning from a citizen of
Ritzville. The writer was under the
impression that this was closed
town and no saloons in operation. He
had a list of some twenty-five ques-
lions regarding the workings of the
municipal machinery as closed
town, but inasmuch as the city still
has the saloon the mans inquiries
cannot be answered.

At Lake City few days ago
Peter Baird dropped dead after
drinking a small glass of water
as chaser" to a drink of
whiskey in the saloon of ]. w.
Vickers. Only Vickers and
George Bardwell, a lawyer, were
present and Bardwell was arres-
ted charged with poisoning Baird
by putting something in the
glass of water. In an attempt
to prove this an analysis of
Baird's stomach is being made.
No motive for the deed, if poi
soning was done, is at present
known. The argument for the
charge seems weak, as poison in
the water, if there was any,
should only have counteracted
that in the Lake City whiskey.

Business men of Delta indi-
vidually, as we'll as the Business
Mems Association collectively,
are working hard for Greater
Delta" Among the plans now
being pushed is one of great i'm
portance: To secure a local beet
sugar factory. That a factory
can be secured for Delta there
should be no doubt. The field is
too inviting to admit of failure.
The only question is: How soon
can we land a factory? The ur-
gent need of such an improve
ment and the many advantages
to be gained, will doubtless give
them their wish at no distant
period. 1t is, quite possible that
something along this line may
yet be secured in time for the
present seasons crop.

The shooting of Father Leo in
church at Denver this week by
one more of those murderous,
irresponsible anarchists who
have been allowed access to this
country by too lax immigration
laws, is another evidence that
our gates need closer watching.
Exactly the same kind of char
acters have murdered two of our
presidents. 1t happened to be a
priest this time at whom the red
hand of the anarchist hurled
death, and not the one whose
life he was especially seeking at
that, but this does not alter the
situation. That a large percent
of the lawless acts in the history
of this country have been insti-
gated and committed by that
class of criminals, should be
ample to stir the authorities as
we'll as the law makers Of this
nation up to doing something to
keep them out.

This week Walter c. Fellows obtain
 ed an order from Judge Sloan restrain
 ing the Tom Reed people from inter-
 fering with the men engaged in doing
 the location work on the disputed
 ground at and surrounding the Tom
 Reed mine. It would appear that
 there is to be hotly contested fight
 over the title to outside mines and
 possibly all of the possessions of the
 Tom Reed people, but just what the
 grounds are for the contest has not
 been definitely made public.
 After the first of the year Thomas
 McNeely will remove to Mineral Park, where he is largely interested in mines. He is the owner of an immense deposit of copper bearing detritis a mile or so below Mineral Park, upon which he has been experimenting. The deposit as whole carries copper values to the amount of about 100 pounds to the ton of material and it is expected that this copper can be readily leached at small expense. The copper is in the form of carbonates and oxides, and the ores can be mined very cheaply.
 George M. Bowers, who owps large acreage of mining property in the Layne Springs section, is in King man. He has just completed arrange ments for the organization of a con- pany to work the mines on large scale. The company will be launched next week with strong financial back ing. The mines to be taken over by the new company are among the best in the district and have had consid- erable development work done on them the past year. Good ore is show ing in all the openings and in the shaft fine vein of milling ore is show ing up.

He reports that the George Mitchell people have made survey for railroad by way of Copper Dome to Planet and that it is expected to have work commenced on the grade before many months.

He al- so reports that great activity will be under way before the first of February | on all the mines.
