Spokane, Aug. 10.-When little
Helen Hamilton, niece of Mayor Boyd,
of Occur d'Alene, walked into a pile of
los, 600 yellow envelopes containing
applications for land of the Occur
d'Alene Indian reservation yesterday
morning, shortly after 10 o'clock, the
great land drawing on the three tracts
OF government land-the Flsthead, the
Occur d'Alene and the Spokane Indian
reservations-was on.
Several hundred people stood around
the platform, on which Judge James
W. Witten, of Washington, d. c.,
formally opened the drawing on one of
the lasE of the big tracts of Uncle
Sans public domain. Unlike the rush
in "squatter" days, the modern method
Of distributing land moved along with
the precision of clockwork.
When Miss Hamilton, daintily dressed
in white, had plucked the first lucky
envelope from the mass and handed it
to Judge Witten and the name of Isa-
dore Selig, of Myrtle Creek, Or, had
been read aloud, the gathering crowds
began to evidence increased interest
and quivering excitement.
A faint cheer arose and followed in
rapid order as Miss Hamilton, aided
by Miss Christine Donlan and Miss
Harriet Post, plucked the other lucky
envelopes from the pile. Men and
women, now anxious to hear the YER
diets in the first 20 envelopes, crowded
up to the platform where newspaper
men and government clerks grabbed
at the bits of news-bearing names and
started them throughout the land by
special wire s run to the drawing stand.
The whole affair is perfect define
alton of the large scale on which Uncle
Sam conducts his official business. The
drawing for the first day closed at A
o'clock. The mark of 1900 set by
Judge Witten as the labor for the
first day, was reached and the remain
ing 1900 will be drawn today. There
are but about half that many claims tc
be given away, but the extra 1900 are
drawn to fill in where winners fail tC

the people have no way of disseminate

Large Number Gathers at Spokane to
Discuss Important Affairs.
Spokane, Aug. 1O.-The congress
opened with the Irrigation Ode," sung
by the Spokane chorus of $50 voices.
The address of welcome to the state
was delivered by Governor Hay, of
Washington.
On behalf of the city Mayor N. S.
Pratt spoke. He caused the suggestion
of sensation by charging private cap
ital with interfering with government
reclamation projects.
The response on behalf of the con-
gress was made by George E. Barstow,
president of the congress.
1t is understood that number of
state delegations have declined to COM
NIT themselves in the matter of indoors
ing a candidate for president. This
is true in the case of President Bar
stow, who, although an announced can
didate, has not been urged strongly for
a second term because of the feeling
that the honor should be "passec
around" Other candidates for the
president of the congress developed
during the day in the persons of ex
Governor Gooding, of Idaho; ex-Gov-
ernor Pardee, of California, and Con
gresham Mondell, of Wyoming.
The question of next meeting place
has narrowed down to fight between

peaches selling four pounds for one
cent, cantaloupes being hawked at 10
cents dozen, and apricots rotting be-
cause nobody will buy them at any
price, ranchers and commission men
are thoroughly Disguised while the
housewife rejoices. Prices are so de-

this section met today and decided to
let all but the best fruit rot.
Only choice melons will be brought
into market, and the growers have an
