PUBLICITY FOR THE.
OkANOGAN

AoiOIt, may GU IuVucouu
dollars will be expended during the
next twelve months In exploiting
Okanogan valley. Twenty-four hours
work soliciting funds in the valley
towns resulted in pledges totaling
this amount, and 1t is thought much
more can be raised as the canvass
progresses and publicity results are
proven. The fund is to be handled
by the newly organized Okanogan
Valley Publicity League. The COM
mittee in charge of the initial adver-
Using is composed of Geo. ]. Stew
art of Malott, J. C. Gay of Okanogan
and e. D. Clough of Omak.
The movement is the first of it's
kind in the history of this district
and present indications warrant the
prediction that the campaign will
soon assume proportions unsurpass-
ed in magnitude by any district in
the west Cooperation has been as
sured from transportation companies,
prominent members of the Wenatchee
Commercial Club and various publ
cations. Wenatchee, the Okanogan
gateway, where sentiment so highly
favors the Okanogan district, will be
a center of the campaign. Various
means of procedure linking Wenat-
chez with the big publicity movement
will be considered within the near
future.
The fund will be used principally
for newspaper and magazine adver-
Using of a general publicity nature,
calling attention to the opportunities
and resources of the valley. Inquir-
les following the advertising cam
paign will be referred to the various
commercial bodies and realty deal
ers and it is expected that the flood
of literature which will result will
attract to this section a large part
of the homeseekers' movement.
The towns joining in the move
ment will be Brewster, Malott, Okla
hogan, Omak, Riverside, Tonasket
and Oroville. Subscriptions are be-
ing solicited from every business man
and land owner. While the total
population of these towns will not
exceed 1000, the money raised to
date has been subscribed with the
assurance in many cases that more
would be forthcoming with the devel-
opment of the campaign.
While known as a new district the
Okanogan valley has been we'll set
tied for years, but only during the
past year or two has the development
of it's natural industy-fruit growing
been possible, principally through
the inauguration of work on the
Great Northern branch from Oroville
to Wenatchee, providing the long
lacking transportation facilities, the
completion of the Government irriga
ton project and the launching of
work on various minor projects. In
years past the only orchards culti-
waited were on land adjacent to
springs or creeks and the ranches
were devoted to ordinary farming,
stock raising, dairying, etc. These
industries, together with vast timber
and mineral resources of exceptional
possibilities, will develop as rapidly
as the orchard movement.

CULT ON
THE COAST
NEIGHBORS OF OM'S SEATTLE
TEMPLE SCOF1F AT HIS HINDU
STAN CLAIMS-COMPELLED TO
VACATE,

The eastern press reports have
failed to give any more information
on the progress of the trial in which
Pierre Bernard, known here, was
concerned. The Seattle dispatches
have the following to say regarding
the Tantrik cult of which he claims
to be the head:
Seattle persons who are acQuaint-
ed with the principals in the strange
cult of the Tantrik, revealed in New
York City recently by the police in
a raid on the house in which ON, or
Pierre Arnold Bernard, was conduct
ing the Kaula rites, believe that the
order had it's origin in Seattle instead
Of Hindustan, as ON has declared.
Several members of the Lois the
alter stock company say that Mrs.
Mary A. Miller, of Tacoma, who, in
rescuing her younger sister, Gertrude
Leo, caused the expose of the cult,
played important, though not lead
ing, roles at the Lois several months
a few seasons ago, and was known at
that time as Mary A. Carr. Both
Mrs. Miller and Miss Leo were known
nographer by the Pacific Bottlers'
Supply company, until she went East
to work in the same capacity for Ber-
nard Mrs. Miller was woman of
striking beauty.
Seattle Temple on 38th Avenue
Before Demands departure for
New York, early In 1908, he and his
friends had maintained an establish
ment at 935 Thirty-eighth avenue
north for year. They had obtained
a lease on the house, now occupied
by a private sanitarium, but on the
expiration of the lease John w. Bow
en-, acting for Mrs. Thomas Shepard,
the owner, compelled them to vacate.
During their residence at that place
the party consisted principally of
emaciatei old men and two or three
young girls. The neighbors say the
girls did not appear more than Is
or II.
Take an Oath i'm Blood.
According to the story from the
East, as told by Miss Leo and Miss
leila Hopp, the girls who have ap-
peared as the states witnesses
against "Om," on a charge of abduc-
ton, Bernard used his mystic rites
as a means of intimidating the young
girls who came under his influence.
They testified that he compelled them
to write on oath of secrecy in blood,
that in his weird incarnation, which
he termed the "Kaula rites" he in
formed them that If they ever be-
trayei the order they would go in
sane, that congress of high priests
of the order, in all parts of the world
would sit in congress and by the COM
bined power of their wills drive their
betrayers to dementia.

Rebuilding Of Hyde Park.

Although only a month has passed
since the disastrous fire at Hyde Park,
April II, the town has already appropri-
ated about $4,000 for a town hall and
plans have been submitted, and practi-
cally accepted, for building the same.
The Congregational society has voted to
rebuild on practically the same plans as
before, which will mean an outlay of
from $4,000 to $4,000. The Odd Fellows,
whose hall was destroyed, have voted to
build hall of their own; and several citi-
zens OF the town whose residences were
burned are, making plans looking to the
early rebuilding of their homes. Two
have already purchased lumber and are
getting il on the ground.
The village has voted to install a CRAWL
ty water system at an expense of not
more than 800, 900 and the source of sup
ply has been practically decided upon and
surveys made looking to the installation
of the plant at the earliest possible mo-
ment. II the present plans are carried
out, rs II is confidently anticipated they
will be, the village will before many
months have a water system which will
equal that OF any village of its size in
northern Vermont.
In addition to all this a Village I'M
provement society has been formed with a
capital stock OF 1000 shares of S. each,
nearly 900 of these shares having already
been provided for, to help forward the
general interests of the village in build
ing up the waste places.

an evasion Of the law, and that the liquor
should be forfeited to the United States.
s. Hollister Jackson OF Barre and W. A.

gether with name OF the consignee and
he customers name and address, and that
there were no fictitious names given, and
that this was compliance with the law.
