MORE IMMIGRATION.

According to the preparations and
the statements of both railroads and
large real estate firms, there win
be a greater influx of colonists and
lomeseekers to Oregon, this year,
han during any previous year of the
State's history. Oregon in general
and Wallowa county in particular
are glad to know of this.
Enterprise and Wallowa county
offer much to the settler. AS a
county Wallowa is but In the dawn
Of her development. She is county
that grows opportunities. Her OPP
portunities will continue to multiply
with every cultivated rod of ground,
every increase of wheat and fruit
and vegetable production, every strip
OF timothy land snatched from the
grasp of wild nature and made to
contribute to the prosperity of man.
As city Enterprise will respond to
every furrow made by the new set
der. She will rise in her demands,
is a market, with each increased
area of cultivation. And she will
ouild factories and homes, business
IS and public institutions comm en-
,urate with each stage of Wallowa
county progress.
Enterprise was so named because
she was conceived in spirit Of en-
erprise, founded upon labor of en-
.erprise, and pressed to development
by a determination of enterprise.
Naturally there are no drones In En-
erprise. The drone, we confess
would not do well here, because he
would not do anything. But for the
eastern man crowded off the popu-
Gus acres of his eastern nativity,
Enterprise and all Wallowa eoun-
y offer untold promises of wealth
based upon bedrock facts of untold
natural resources.
If it is true, as we have no doubt,
hat the present year will witness
he greatest influx of homeseekers
If any previous year, Enterprise and
Wallowa county will get and merit
heir share of this number. We
lave water power that is going to
waste. We have hundreds of thous-
ands of acres of land waiting the
cultivator. Mountains covered with
snow feed the unfailimg drinking
water supply-a supply that is all
ways pure and cold and clear as
crystal. We have homes for men,
)pulence for big investors, and pros,
perity for everybody. Come to Wal.
owa-and come to Enterprise.

LIGHT of Truth.

"The late Henry c. Lea of Philadel-
phia." said Boston publisher. was
the worlds foremost authority on the
Spanish inquisition. To this subject
he devoted his life.
Mr.. Lea was realist. He sought
only the truth. He threw romantic
lights over nothing. He believed that
the truth gave the best effects of all.
"Once, to illustrate the striking eff
feet that the truth gave. he said that
Byron-though II is not generally
known-put second inclosure In the
envelope to his wife containing the
beautiful lines:
Fare thee we'll. And II for ever,
Still forever fare thee we'll!

poet had scrawled:
Please look over this. as | don't

Willie Otto, who has been connected
with the Boys Department store for
a number of years, has opened up a
new business in one of the Sonksen
buildings on Main street, where he
is handling coffee, tea, spices and
flavoring extracts exclusively. Satur-

business and over a thousand people
made the new store visit. Hot cot
fee was served all day and each per-

Mr.. Otto intends to sell his goods
throughout the county, and has two
wagons which will be on the road con-
tinually, supplying the farmers with
this class OF goods.
This is new enterprise in Denison

make a success of it.

COMPLAIN AGAINST DRIVERS.
Farmers Along SchIeswig Road Say
Auto Drivers Have Bad Habit
of Shooting Their Dogs.

Several of the farmers living on the
road between Denison and Schleswig
complain that certain parties, in trav-
cling back and forth in automobiles
between the two towns, are in the
habit of shooting at dogs which run
out from the farm houses along the
road and bark at the passing ma
chimes. There is no excuse for this
exhibition of recklessness on the part
of drivers or occupants of automo-
biles, as no harm can come from the
dogs barking and running after the
cars. The only amusement a dog
gets out of the passing car is running
after it and barking at it, and the
owner of the car should not begrudge
this pleasure to the dog. Another
thing should be borne in mind and
that is that it requires about the same
degree of skill and courage to shoot
at the car that it does to shoot at the
dog, and the shots at another time.
if too much provocation exists, may
come from the opposite direction.
A few lawless people are largely
responsible for the unpopularity of the
automobile, where such unpopularity
exists and they should be frownet
upon when violating the rules of de
cency and propriety.
