THE WEST
Ansel Wineman Visits Many
Grand Forks People on
Recent Trip

Ansel Wineman, who returned a rew
days ago from an extensive frin
through the west, speaks interestingly
OF the country visited and of the North
Dakota people who have gone there to
reside. ~
MT. Wineman left here last Decem-
Der, taking the Great Northern to Sc
sttle, visiting several Of the cities on
the way. He visited the Canadian side
ana from Victoria took boat to San
francisco and Los Angeles. Several
uays were spent visiting the latter
City. On the return to Seattle, the
BOAT passed through a big storm.
some time was spent visiting Port
land, Ore. From there Mr.. Wineman
went to Burns, small inland town
Just being opened up. 1t is 100 miles
from railroad and the trip was made
by stage. On the return, the driver
became snow blind and Mr.. Wineman
mad to try his hand as teamster.
Many former North Dakotans were
met on the trip. At Boomers Ferry
was Laurence Mccoy, who is engaged
IN the lumber business there. At Sc
attic, Mr.. Wineman met Bruce Griggs,
former university man, now engaged
in the automobile garage business,
Frank and James Douglas, both uni
verslty graduates, are very successful
IN the practice of law.
In Tacoma are John Sorley. now
attorney for the Great Northern. and
William Pringle, formerly president of
the First National bank of East Grand
Forks. He is now interested in the
Scandlnavian-American bank of Ia
coma. At Los Angeles are Burke Cor
bett and John Selby, both formerly
OF this city, who are partners in the
practice Of law At North Yakima, G.
r. Blackburn, formerly photographer
IN this city, is now engaged in fruit
ranching. H. H. Patterson, former
secretary of the local Y. NJ. C. A., is
now holding that position in the same
city.
A number of Grand Forks people
are located in Portland. Wayne Rich
ardson, who graduated from the law
school in 1908, is with the Portland
Light and Power company. Burk
Thompson, who went out there last
winter, is engaged in the land bust
ness and is meeting with great sue
cess. Clyde Butson, former univer-
sity student, is connected with a life
insurance company. Morris Cashel
son of Senator Cashel of Grafton, is
vice president of the Portland Land
and Investment company. His broth
er, John, has set up law Office. Ros-
coe Fawcett is sporting editor on the
Portland Oregonian. Edwin Lin
stedt is engaged in the practice of law
Bert D. Townsend is located in that
city as United States attorney.
Mr.. Wineman was quite favorably
impressed with the western country
although he did not consider it any
better as a location than North Da-
kota. Los Angeles was found to be a
very beautiful city, but it is more OF
a summer resort than a business CEN
ter. The new country that is being
opened up in Oregon was visited
While the soil appears good, early and
late frosts are the bane Of that sec
ton. While San Francisco, Seattle
and Tacoma are all developing the
best and most progressive town on the
coast is Portland, Oregon, in Mr.
Wineman's opinion.

down from the hills to the Payette
river in front Of his house Howard
vas just starting early in the morn

his ranch when he saw the animal
just across the river about two
hundred yards away Quickly re-
turning to the house he secured his
rifle and was able to kill the animal
which he found still lingering in
the shelter of the bluffs opposite his
home when he returned.
Several reports have been receiv-

PAYETTE VALLEY EXHIBITS
ATTRACTING GREAT ATTENTION

A letter received from VIII Wells
in charge of the Payette and EN-
nett exhibits at the Chicago Land
show states that the Payette Val
ley exhibit is attracting more at
tention than any other western ex-
hibit and that large crowds are
daily thronging the Idaho section
and seem especially interested in the
fruit exhibit from this valley. The
fruit sent from Emmett and Pay
ette Mr. Wells says compares favor
ably with fruit from the other irri-
gated sections both as to quality,
color, grade, and pack. He consid-
ers the Chicago Land Show the
best place to advertise of any he has
yet taken exhibits to. The supply
of printed matter he took with him
was exhausted the first day or two
as there were so many visitors to
the exhibition that wanted to read
about Payette Valley and her re-
sources.

poRTIA CLUB NEWS.

Portia Club met Monday afternoon
in the Commercial Club Rooms with
a good attendance.
The Portia Club was organized in
1898 and federated in 1903 BY lit
tie calculation we can see that Por-
tia has attained her majority being
now eighteen years old. The chart
er members were few but with their
club motto, Live not to thyself
alone" these early members are
gratified to see the new growth of
the club and to realize that it is a
power in the upbuilding OF our city
as well as the mutual improvement
of the club. This being Membership
Rally Day. much of the business was
deferred till the next meet, Dec. IL.
and the time was given over to the
program.
By the request of the Educational
Committee DR.. Haley gave an instruc-
tive address on the elective system
prevailing in many of our colleges,
that is, leaving or permitting the
student the choice of the subjects
he wishes to study, many choosing
the easier studies to their detriment.
His remarks were very applicable to
our Grammar and High School grades
and set many mothers thinking and
met with the hearty approval OF the
club. Miss Johnson, one of our
busy teachers. gave. in her inimitable
way, three readings from Edmund
Vance Cook. These bright moments
by two of our city's educators were
much appreciated by the club.

given the remainder of the time and

LABOR TROUBLES SETTLED.

What looked like a labor war
started in Payette Monday when con
tractor Sauset put eight Austrians
10 work on the sewer and layed off
the home laborers. A meeting OF
the sewer committee was called for
Tuesday evening and the fact that
an agreement to hire all local help
as far as possible. existed. was
brought to his attention The con
tractor stated to the committee that
in other sections where he had sew
er work he had been unable to get
the local men TO work in the deep
sewer and in water and for that
reason he had brought theAustrians-
The committee issued a written re
quest to him to abide By the eoa-
tract and hire nothing but local
help both skilled and unskilled so
far as possible He agreed to do
this and the Austrians were dis

Mr.. Sauset stated that he had no
objection at all to hiring the To-
cal men providing they were willing
to go into the deep sewers and the

the Austrians with him had he felt
that the local men would do this
but IN other sections he had fourd

Saturday evening last about eight
o'clock while driving a horse hitched
to a single buggy home from Pay.
ette Mrs. F. H. Muzzy was severely
injured by an automobile driven by
Richard Stevens striking the buggy
while going at terrific rate Of
speed. Besides Stevens in the auto
there we're three other men whose
names we have been unable to learn
When the machine struck the bug
gy the impact was such as to throw
it almost on top of the horse hitched
to it. Two wheels were broken, the
reaches bent and the shafts snapped
in two. Mrs. Muzzy; the occupant Of
the buggy. lady who must be close
to sixty years of age was thrown
out, rendered unconscious and severe
ly bruised all over her body. Her
extreme age and the fact that she
is a very heavy woman rendered
the accident all the more severe on
her.
The party in the auto stopped and
picked her up in an unconscious con-
dition and took her to her home on
the bench and the family at once
called Dr. ]. c. Woodward who dress
ed her wounds In addition to the

handicap the work somewhat for
few days. In speaking of the work
on Monday Mr.. Sauset stated: 1T

that we win have to lay off a few
men until we get far enough along

uections at which time we will work
a force of sixty to seventy-fiye men
and push the work right along. The

Friday morning about !. 80 O'Clock
a fire alarm called out the fire de-
partment TO the big fruit packing
house OF Denney & Co. Befora the
fire boys could respond and get on
the ground the building was burned
to the ground Difficulty was ex-
perienced in getting a line OF hose
to the fire as there was not suffI-
cient hose in the fire house to reach
from the closest hydrant due TO the
fact that some OF the hose has
been kept on the west side for pro
lection ever there.
The fire was discovered by some
young people returning home from
a party and when first noticed the
entire north OF west end OF the
building was In flames. Some young
men rushed to the building and by
breaking in the door saved some Of
the office fixtures and succeeded In

The origin OF the fire is a mystery
as II started in the north end of
the building where there was no
stove. Parties passing the building
just few moments before the alarm 4
was sounded observed no sign OF
