Prof. w. M. Savage expects to move
to Okanogan town next week, where
he has been engaged as principal of
the school. The school opens Tuesday,
September IA. 1t is supposed that the
trustees skipped Monday on account of
it being the 18th, fearing that hoo
do might fall upon the term if school
opened on that date. Prof. Savage has
filled the position of county school SUI
perintendent during the past two years,
and has performed the duties of the
office faithfully and we'll. During his
incumbency he has resided in Oroville,
and for the past year has been mem
ber of the city council, in which Office
he has always taken stand for good
and progressive government. AS pri-
vate citizen his civility, urbanity and
joviality has won to him host of
friends who regret his departure and
at the same time wish him full meas
ure of success and prosperity in his
new home. His departure leaves va
cancy in the council that may have to
be filled by appointment.

FINISHED THE SURVEY.

Geo. J. Gardiner returned to Oro-
vile Monday after an absence of two
or three weeks during which he sur
veyed out the proposed ditch and ilume
to convey water from the Sinahekin
creek to the Whitestone fiat lands.
The intake of the ditch will be at a
n2int near the old saw mill site, almost
equal distance between Loomis and the
q. S. mine. The project is not only a
feasible one, but the cost will not be
great considering the distance water
must be carried to reach the objective
point. Prior to putting Mr.. Gardiner
in the field nj. d. Winder, promoter of
the project, took elevations and made
rough estimate as to the grade of the
ditch and distance, and Mr.. Gardiner
says that his calculations were very
close to the figures reached by the use
of instruments. Mr.. Gardiner has fin
ished the field work, and it will now
require about week of office work on
the profile and estimates. The enter
prise seems to be sure go, and will
prove to be of great benefit to the coun-
ty by putting large extent of waste
land under high state of cultivation
and productiveness.

stronger teams in the past, but in no
year has the club been so successful.
OF all the games played in and out of
town this summer it has lost but one.
Some of the games have been the

members on the field has been most
commendable, and the season has end

Individually and collectively, are to be
congratulated upon the seasons record

AN ERROR CORRECTED.

A misleading statement has been
published in some of the county papers
based upon a dispatch from Olympia, :,
appearing in the Seattle Post-Intel-
ligencer, to the effect that the school
superintendent of Okanogan county,
among few others, had failed to send
in his annual report, and if not in dur
ing the month of August the county
would lose a portion OF the state school
fund apportionment. The truth is Sup
erintendent Savage had his report com
pleted long before it was due. He re-
ceived copy of the new school law
just before mailing the report, and dis
covered that several changes had to
be made to conform with that law.
These corrections were properly en-
braced in the report, and the docu-
ment forwarded to headquarters in
ample time to meet every requirement
of the department and save to the cOun-
ty every dollar Justly due.

A BRACE OF ACCIDENTS.


Monday while playing about the
home OF her parents Emma, the five
year-old daughter of DR.. and Mrs. f..
S. Beal fell from a box and broke her
left arm between the elbow and should
err. The fracture was reduced by Drs
House and Beale and at last accounts
the little sufferer was doing nicely.
S. Rayburn met with very painful
and serious accident early Thursday
morning. While engaged shingling
the roof of the addition to the building
occupied by Jay Newall, he slipped
and fell to the ground, distance OF
IA or Is feet, striking his back across
a carpenters saw-horse. The unfor-
tunate man was conveyed to his home
and DR.. Schwabland made an examin-
alton of the injuries. He found, be-
sides severe bruises, that two ribs were
broken at the backbone. The accident
will lay Mr.. Rayb up for some time.

4 ZILEK.

The town council seems to have
hard nut to crack in the matter OF
further granting of liquor licenses.
There are already ten convenient and
cheerfully conducted relief stations
scattered about the highways where
those fainting from thirst may drop in
and save their lives. With the pros
poets of railroad building, and the de
mand for liquid Refreshments that the
building or railroads generally creates,
there are other applications before the
council from parties desiring to estab-
lish dispenSaries to supply the demand,
and the Councilmen hardly know what
to do about it. There is sentiment
against the issuance of more licenses,
giving every man run for his money
the additional joints to be under the
same strict police surveillance that is
now keeping the town in such good
order. The council seems to be pretty
equally divided on the question, or at
least was at a recent meeting, when
four of the five member, were present
two iavoring and two opposing the
granting of a license to an applicant.
The complicated puzzle may be worked
out at subsequent meeting and it Is
a sure oct that no matter how II i de-
cided everybody will not be satisfied.

An Old TIMER.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. H. Mcdaniel. their
daughter Grace and son Lloyd, drove
in from Mr.. McDanel's river ranch
Monday morning for the purpose of
seeing Miss Carrie Powers, a niece of
Mrs Mcdaniel who has been visiting
with the family all summer, depart for
her home at Chippewa Falls, Wis Mr..
Mcdaniel is probably the oldest white
resident, in point of settlement. in the
Sinlahek kin valley. He owns a beau
tiful and valuable home only a short
distance north of Loomis, where he
raises magnificent fruit. and where the
hospitality of the family has become
proverbial throughout the county. He
also owns one of the best ranches in
the Okanogan valley few miles south
of Oroville, from which he cut three
crops of alfalfa this season, and it was
a mighty poor season for that forage
plant. The family spent most of the
day in Oroville, going from here to the
valley ranch and on to l.oomis Tuesday.

CHANGE THE ROUTE.

The Concouully Record states that
owing to the enormous price asked for
right-of-way over some of the land in
the Sinlahekin valley, from LOOMS
northward, the promoters of the pro-
moters of the proposed electric rail
road are seriously thinking OF chang
ing the route and building across
Whitestone fiat to the valley of the
Okanogan, and connecting with the
standard railroad at Oroville. This
really would be wise move on the part
of the company, and shuold have been
looked into and considered in the first
place. There is no heavy work to en-
counter in building from LOOMS along

PREPARING TO DO SOMETHING.

a letter from w. A. Snow, dated at
Spokane, states that on behalf of the
Copper World Extension Mining COM
pany he has secured bids for the in
stallation of a tram and electricity for
the mine, and also bids for a smelter
complete. He was on his way to his
home at Columbus, Ohio, where he
will confer with the board of trustees,
and then decide upon the course to be
pursued. The company will either put
in a tram to get the ore down off the
mountain for shipment to a smelter, or
close deal for the erection of a smelt-
er to treat the ore at some point near
the mine. Whatever conclusion is
reached means the renewal of work at
the Copper World Extension. 1t is
probable that the shaft will be sunk to
greater Depth as it should be. while
the ore at the upper levels is being
made source of revenue. BY follow
ing that plau the company would dem
-onstrate the full extent of the ore body
at depth. Let the decision be what it
may it now looks as though the COM
pany would take up the matter of work
ing the Extension in earnest after Il
long term of idleness. Activity at the
mine would infuse new life in that
part of the county.

A call is acknowledged Sunday from
Robert Churchill, of Omak, an old
Iowa friend of Mayor T.. A. McMahan.
Mr.. Churchill came to Okanogat eoun-
ty last year and proceeded to load up
on real estate to the extent of his
means. He secured about three acres
at Wenatchee and nearly 40 acres near
Omak, under the government ditch.
He paid $3.50 per acre for the land in
this county. After making the invest
ment Mr. Churchill went back to Iowa
to close up some business matters, and
when he told his old neighbors what
he had paid for raw land in the Okla
hogan valley they thought he had gone
batty. But Mr.. Churchill knew what
he was doing, and is now glad he did
it. He says he could unload any day
for $500 per acre, which is pretty good
interest on his investment But his
land is not in the market. He believes
that 50 soon as the Oroville-Brewster
road is built this same land will com
mand $500 per acre. His Iowa friends
have surprise coming when they
learn that his purchase was bargain,
and has increased in value with leaps
and bounds. The experience OF Mr..
Churchill is only the experience OF
many others, and those who have lived
here for years and failed to get in on
the ground floor have big regret to
carry around the balance of their days.
