HAS COUNTY SEAT.
FEVER
MASS MEETING OF WILSON
CREEK RESIDENTS AND FARM
E.RS FAVORs MOVING RECORDS
FROM EPHRATA.

Wilson Creek, Wash, March r.
A mass meeting of citizens and
ranchers was held in the city hall
last night to decide whether Wilson
Creek should make a bid for county
seat honors. r. H. Lee was chosen
chairman, and Anton Schumacher
secretary.
Chairman Lee outlined the situa-
ton, calling attention to the fact
that the present court house, COM
pleted at Ephrata last summer, was
a temporary wooden structure, that
was conceded that the county seat
would not remain there, that other
towns had county seat plans, that
Wilson Creek was the logical point,
and suggested that it was time the
people took definite action.
G. j. Lambert, J. P. Schroeder, A.
J. O'Larey, Robert Hale, w. H.
O'Larey, c. B. Hamlet, Denis Friel,
A. b. Clark, A. A. Weaver, Luke
Hale, J. J. Bryant, C. B. Hamlet and
others made speeches.
The meeting was then turned over
to the commercial club and officers
elected as follows: President, r. H.
Lee; vice president, w. H. O'Larey;
secretary, A. E. Schumacher; CORE
spending secretary, c.. J. Lambert
A finance committee composed of A.
E. Nichols, DR.. J. H. Champion and
c. B. Hamlet, was appointed.
j. P. Schroeder was appointed a
committee to visit Adrian, where the
Farmers union is holding the coun-
ty meeting, and spread the news that
Wilson Creek is in the field for
county seat honors.
The club will hold a smoker in
Fraternal hall Friday night, when a
petition will be drafted.

Der of commerce rooms.
Stone & Webster will construct the
line, and work is to begin at once,
to have the system working by June,
1911, with a guarantee that it would
be finished by March, 1912.
The contracts were signed, and the
meeting resolved into rally, in
which business men took off their
coast and hurled hats into the air,
waved canes, handkerchiefs and UNI
brellas and danced in enthusiastic
glee.

Inspector Darlington states that
the peach crop is all right in this
neighborhood. He has just been
around looking at a number of or
chards and was unable to find any
evidences of frost The weather
conditions appear to be fairly well
settled now, and while it is within
the realm of possibility for kill
ing frost yet, no fears are being ex-
pressed from any source. The last

The first experience of the traveller
with customs is different from those
of America in the way In which the
baggage is handled; no checks are
given and we were led to believe that
great difficulty was experienced in its
handling. To our surprise, we had
no trouble whatever Under the let
ter "B" we found our baggage which
was taken up by q porter and III few
moments was in the luggage van and
we thought no more about il. In a
short time our train started and car
ried US through country so differ
ent from anything we had ever seen
that our attention was given TO its
study and TO a comparison with
America.
England a Garden Spot.
Travelling over England in fast
train, running nearly sixty miles an
hour, our thoughts went back TO the
pages of history which recalls the
fact that this country is old, not a
hundred, not a thousand, bur thou
sands of years. The stories we have
been told in America about our eX-
hausted and unproductive lands ap-
peared to be false when / saw the
green hillsides, the richly cultivated
fields, the growing crops, the hun
dreds OF cattle and sheep, on every
side, and every foot and every inch
of land under a high state OF cultlva-
ton. Our thoughts were that We
were crude, that our methods were
crude also, and that we had not as
yet ccme TO a realization OF what has
to be done TO support a nation. All
England and Wales are cultivated in
this manner. The country appears
prosperous, cottage, farm house, pal
atial mansions all we'll cared for
