popularity ever enjoyed by any re-

gar prejudice, but by inherent merit.
All physicians recommend ii, and
many, very many, prescribe it.
Many parents call it the family
physician. Many other iamilies
take advantage OF what the physician
told them when he was first called
in consultation. All good family
physicians say: Give the children
Castoria." Healthy parents know
this remedy Of old, for they took It
themselves as children. 1t was more
than thirty years ago that Castoria
made a place for itself in the house

The signature is its guarantee. which

without passing directly through the

Oroville should not make the flourish
ing city this paper has so frequently
predicted. 1t cannot escape greatness
sometime, even if handicapped by a
divided people, but that happy and
greatly desired condition can be has
tened If the same spirit continues to
prevail that was conspicuous to such a
marked degree during the agitation of
county division. The reward promised
is worth prolonging and perpetuating

laid. May it prove to be as enduring

come from it will be speedily apparent.

verbally, in general, as they did in
notes to the writer in particular.
The strange part Of this continued
refusal to accept the three weeks war
rants, and liqudate their urgent
claims, is that at no time has the pay
ment of the week in question been re-
fused, but the teachers have been
asked to await the action of the entire
school board at it's regular meeting
Surely the taxpayers of the district
have some rights that their represen-
tatives should respect, and take meas
ures to get any reimbursements com
ing to them. When a ranch that with
hard and constant labor will scarcely
produce living for small family, is
taxed at over $43 per year, should not
business methods be applied in the
use of public funds, or should public
interests be lost sight of in our haste
to get the approval of individuals
whose private interests are served
What merchant would pay out a goodly
sum of money where value had not

make sure of any reimbursement that

A FINE PROPERTY.

j. M. Pitman has sold his place, on
Palmer lake, to j. M. Norris, jr., the
consideration said to be $4,000, the
deal being but through by Dell Harte the
land is worth the money. The Pitman
ranch is one of the show places of the
long valley reaching from Palmer lake
at the north end, to Fish lake on the
south end. Not owing to the high state
of cultivation and improvement, for
its condition in that respect is no credit
to its former owner. but because OF it's
charming location, its beautiful gen9le
sweep from the foot hills to the lake,
the possibilities presented in making
the bett and most valuable fruit ranch,
of its size, in Okanogan county in the
hands OF man of energy.
Mr.. Pitman has lived on the home
stead'for many years, and had he ap-
piled the same time and industry to
ranching that he did to seeking Office
today the place would be worth up
ward of thoussnd dollars per acre,
sls.ss on,aacount of its producing capa-
city probably could not be bought for
any price. This is set down with only
feelings of kindness toward Mr.. Pit
man, and sincere regret that he did
take advantage of such an opportunity
as seldom comes to man. Mr.. Pit
man, like his place, is one of the old
land marks and personalities of the
country. A kindly, hospitable, like
able person, his friends, and they are
many, have felt surprise that he did
not fully relize what he had within his
gresp and make the best of it. Seeing
the success made of fruit, even on less
favorably situated land than his own,
the rapid advance in fruit lands, it is
strange that he did not install pump
ing plant several years ago and set out
trees. Had he done so he would have
had an independent fortune today.
A great change will be noticeable in
the premises in the next few years.
The new owner will not sit supinely
down and let the land continue in its
present condition. He will put water
on the place, cultivate it thoroughly
plant trees, and soon enhance the value
many fold. In a new country it is the
man who comes afterward who makes
the best of it. The old timer as rule
has lost the knack, if he ever had it Of
seizing and making the best of his
chances, anb it is left to the tenderfoot
to come in and skim the cream.

KINGS DAUGHTERS.

Among the social and charitable or
est and most active is that of the
Kings Daughters. The membership
has always been large, numbering on
its roster some of the most energetic
workers in the camp. Several years
ago the society put up neat little
building that has been used as libra
ry and reading room, and it has be-
come source of much solid comfort
and enjoyment to those outside as well
as within the circle, The organiZa
tion is five years old, and the secre
tary, Mrs. [. |. lnman, sends in the
following statement as to the pro-
posed observance of the anniversary
and notation of increased membership:
''The Kings Daughters are going to
celebrate the fifth anniversary of their
organization in Loomis on April T. and
are going to give public entertain
ment. The organization is entirely
out of debt, have money in the bank,
and about 300 books in the library.
We expect to add more books in the
near future. We also have library
from the State Travelling Library. We
have been doing some charity work
this winter. In the last two regular
meetings we have enrolled the follow
ing new members Mesdames Stanley

ELEM EHAM HAPPENINGS.

The following report of things that
occurred in the Ellemeham settlement
recently has been handed in by resi-
dent of that locality:
A Grange was organized here Jan
uary II, with 80 members. The fol-
lowing officers were elected at the
meeting of January 2l: Worthy Mas

held the lst and Sd Saturday evenings
Of each month at the Ellemeham school
house. Special meetings are being
held to train the goat"
The Literary Society hold meetings
every Wednesday night, and the en-
thusiasm is greater each meeting,
which is proof OF its success. G. b.
Noyes is president, ID. w. Reilly vice
president, and f. r. Hershberger sec
retary. Such subjects as "The Trusts"
"Women Suffrage" Foreign Emf
grafton" and "Wealth and Poverty,
it's Affect on Crime" have been failed
and threshed until no doubt there will
be some great changes in legislation
in the next congress.
Spring must be coming as the wo-
men are getting around making calls
before the busy season sets in.
School has continued at school house
No. all winter, Chas. S. Lewis "ze

denavian, French, Dutch, Spanish and
English. They all look easy to him.
G. B. Noyes drew the lucky number
on the jury.
A son was born to the house of Mr.
and Mrs. w. w. Scott last week.
This is the year of the "big snow
on Ellemham, and it staggers the old

the government record, reports that
81 inches have fallen, which does not
include the two or three tluries.

DEATH OF MRS. w. w. PARRY.

The sad and wholly unexpected news
of the sudden death of Mrs. w. w.
Parry reached here Saturday evening.
While Mrs. Parry has been sick for
some time on her husbands S homestead
at the old Tonasket ferry crossing, on
the Okanogan river, some Is miles
south of Oroville, it was not supposed
that the illness was of an immediate
dangerous character. Saturday morn
ing, about II o'clock, she was taken
with a severe hemorrhage of the lungs
resulting in death. The funeral took
place Thursday, and the remains were
buried in the Riverside cemetery.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Parry have lived
in northern Okanogan county for a
great many years, and the sincere sym
pathy of friends is extended to the
bereaved husband.
