Grade Copper Ore
in Sight.

Ore is being hauled in this
week from the Golden Chariot
mine near the international
boundary, preparatory to making
a shipment to the smelter. A
force of men under the super
vision Of Silas Fritz has been at
work on the mine all winter and
it is understood that a great deal
of high grade copper ore has
been blocked out. The first ship
ment from the mine will consist
of several carloads and later it
is the intention of the company
to arrange for regular shipments
provided an equitable rate for
transportation can be secured
from the railroad. The mine is
owned by q company of Spokane
capitalists.

The members of the newly Or
ganized Oroville brass band are
attending very closely to prac-
tice and are making good pro-
gress. Arrangements have been
made by the band boys to give
a dance on March 18th, for the
benefit of the organization and
announcement is made that the
first public appearance of the
band will be on the afternoon of
that day. Much interest is mani.
tested in what will be the result
Of this first appearanc in public,
as it is we'll known fact that
most of the bunch are sorely af.

Railroad Steel.

Steel for that part of the rail
road beyond Keremeos is being
sent to the front as fast as pos.
sible. Every train north takes
as many cars as can be moved
by the engine and each freight
train from the east brings new
supply. From the amount being
moved one is led to believe that
more track will be laid this year
than the short stretch between

better treatment. The new bill
provides for committee from

Representative Sayre of Pierce
probably holds the record for bill

anti-saloon bill, an anti-treating
bill, and a bill prohibiting the

standing to his credit. As each

As Seen by Others.

The last issue of the Oroville
Gazette announces that a deal has
been completed by which Frank
NJ. Dallam, the nestor of Wash
ington journalism, and who re-
Gently discontinued the publica-
tion of the Prospector at Loomis
after trying for II years to bring
the resources of that camp to the
front, becomes a partner in the
publication of the Gazette, the
firm hereafter to be known as
Dallam & Fine. The Gazette also
adds that the plant Of the Pros
pector, one Of the best in eastern
Washington, will be added to the
equipment of the new firm, max
ing the Gazette office one of the
most complete to be found in any
of the country towns Of the state.
Under the new order Of things
Frank NJ. Dallam will be editor
of the Gazette and Fred j. Fine
business manager, and this COM
bination, together with the splen-
did plant at their disposal, should
result in giving the town of Oro-
vile one of the best weekly pa
pers in the west, and at the same
time it should effectively put an
end to all talk of a second news
paper at that place. Success to
the new firm.-Springdale Re-
former.

The press of the county is
pleased to learn that Hon. Frank
NJ. Dallam, of the late Palmer
Mountain Prospector, will not
leave the Okanogan field. He has
consolidated his plant and inter
est with the Oroville Gazette, and
after the first of March will be
editor of that publication. Fred
Fine will look after the business
management. 1t can't help but
be a good one.-Chesaw News.

deputies. The opposition, though
few in numbers, made q strong
discussion against the bill.
Sam Hill, president of the state
good roads commission, addressed
the joint committees on roads. He
favOrs the use Of convict labor in
building state roads.
The McMaster, or anti-saloon
local option bill has gone down to
defeat by the state senate. A
substitute for the Nichols bill
has been passed by that body
which is, however, so liberel in
its provisions that it will hardly
be accepted by the house.
The present status of the eight.
hour law for female employees is
that it has passed. The bill has
been passed, reconsidered and
passed in an attempt to exempt
the canneries, but is now up to
the senate without exemption.
But the bill carries a provision
whereby it does not apply to
piece work. This little joker elm.
mates any effectiveness the bill
migth otherwise have.
With a slight variation in
boundary and the change of name
from Big Bend to Grant, the
house bill dividing Douglass coun-
ty has passed the senate.
One of the most important bills
Of the session is that of j. A. Fal-
ccPer appropriating money for
experiment work in clearing and
fssming logged or lands. There
can be no question of the great
benefits this bill would bring to
the western part Of the state, but
regular estimate for appropria-
tions is so high that it is likely
to fail on that account.
Though not so spectacular as
his namesake Ole from King, H.
H. Hanson from Walla Walla is
hard and persistent worker in
the interest of his constituents.
Mr.. Hanson is trying hard upon a
modification of the state road law
desiring that the state funds,
which under certain provisions
comes back to the county be ex-
pended under the direction of the
county commissioners instead of
the state highway commission.
Following the roast Of the anti
local option senator's, and espe-
cially those from King county,
Governor Hays is expected to ap-
point a joint committee to take
up the local option question from
the beginning. AS the dead line
for new bills will have been
crossed before this appears in
print just how that committee s
work is to be Incorporated into
law is not apparent.
The act work of last weeks ses-
sion was two completed bills.
This being far above the average.
Many have reached the halfway
point by passage through one or
the other legislative branches. But
in addition to the usual house and
senate difference of opinion, there
is developed, at this session, a real
hostility between the two which
is bound to cut down a number of
bills that find their way on the
statute books.
However, for the remaining
days Of the session, new business
being barred, the finishing up of
old is certain to 60 forward lit
tie more rapidly, it is certain
though, that this legislature s rec
ord, if not the minimum for guam
tity of work, will be we'll down
among the low ones and prospects
were never better or worse, as
you choose to look at it, for an
extra legislative session.
