number OF Hats in the Ring" as re-
ported by the county auditor appended

to include any of those who were
stung by the malicious little bee and
whose hats were caught by an i'll
wind and waited beyond the confines
of that magical ring.
From the following list it will be
seen that there will be three distinct
tickets at the primary election on
September 10 and that all of the Of
fees are we'll sought after by many
very worthy citizens who are not only
willing but extremely anxious to
serve the county in the various offices.

dates Slipped in just at the close and
the wise politicians are readjusting

IMPORTANT REALTY DEAL,

Aonther large and important land
deal was made last week when Chas
f. Sisrist purchased the Osoyoos lake
front ranch OF Benjamin f. Raney
ThlS ranch lies to the north of OrO-
Vile about three miles and comprises
triflc over l40 acres of fine fruit
land with an exceptionally long and
beautiful lake frontage which in the
years TO come will not only add to the
disirability of the place but will add
dollars to the value OF the same.
The actual figures of the sale are
not made public but it is reported that
the price paid was rather stiff and this
is not to be doubted as the East Okan-
ogan Valley irrigation District takes
in The whole place and the high line
ditch Will cover practically every foot
of the ranch Now that this ditch is
an assured fact the ground passes
from the prospective or speculative
class into that of the actual high grade
fruit class with a known value on the
market. This fact is not fully fixed
in tie minds of our valley ranchers as
Yet but the changes are gradually TAX
ing place and the day of realization is
near at hand Heretofore when the
price of valley lands were mentioned
it was always qualified with the re-
mark that a certain piece of ground
was. worth so and so ''if' it had water.
Now The statement can be made that
it is actually worth the former specu-
lative figure as the water part is as
sured
1t is Mr.. Sigrist's idea to plat this
beautiful piece Of lake front property
in the near future and place it on the
market in the form of small acre
tracts suitable for individual home
places or ideal. dividend paying sum-
.mHe~Tesidences and plots for the well
to do city folks who have a desire to
get back to nature part of each year.
Plans for this work are not yet COM
plete but as Mr.. Sigrist is a good rust
Ter he will undoubtedly have the engi-
neering work ali done before next
spring SO that the opening of the sea-
son will lind him busy showing the in
coming homeseekcrs some of the best
and prettiest lake front property they
ever saw in any country.

Gated on upper Siwash creek, was

was never apprehended or at lea$t no

boiler being covered with insurance,
Mr.. Hone had a. new boiler installed

RIVERSIDE ARGUS SOLD.

A short item in the Riverside Argus
of last week announced the sale of that
paper to c. p. Scates, publisher of the
Omak Chronicle. Mr.. w. f. Calvert
has published good paper for the
citizens of Riverside during his owner
ship and is one of the best editors in a
county that is happily blest with as
fine bunch of newspaper boys as
ever get together anywhere. We do
not know where Mr.. Calvert expects
to pitch camp for future operations,
but wherever it may be the people of
that community will be proud to add
him to their list of prominent and
worthy citizens, and we bespeak for
him the success that such ability as he
shows is justly worthy Of Mr.. Scates
has been in the county seveal years
and has given the people of Omak
fine live paper and we judge that sue
cess must have attended his efforts az
this branching out takes the coin of
the realm in large chunks. With the
management Mr.. Scates can give the
two papers he now owns he should be
able to build up two very strong
moulders of public opinion and reap a
financial reward in keeping with the
efforts expended.
