The holidays are drifting down up

do Christmas buying early. The way
for our merchants to start early buy
Ing Is TO advertise holiday goods well
in advance
The Cummings bungalow, in the
west part Of town, In assuming shape,
and very pretty residence it Is go

few attractive and substantial build
ings added to the town this year.
The comet that 80 much has been
said Of late is in sight in the western
sky early in the evening. 1t is a tame,
dinky comet in comparison with the
one the writer remembers seeing in

comet shone out like an electric light,
and had a sweeping tail that extended
clear across the southern heavens.
Dale Greene was in Oroville the
first of the week packing out the ex-
ira fancy Spitzenberg apples in the
Okanogan Smith orchard. The quail
ity and quantity of this variety of ap-
pie that is grown on the ancient trees
OF this orchard is something marvel

secured % boxes for the exhibit car.

The great annual festivity, Fair
Hesperides, the annual show day for
Wenatchee, takes place next week,
commencing Monday. 1t will be well
worth seeing, indeed residents of this
valley who can get away cannot afford
to miss it. Oroville should be we'll
represented in Wenatchee during the
week. The fruit exhibits especially
will be the most interesting feature,
especially attractive to those engaged
in fruit growing.
Tom Cookery, the progressive candi-
date for congress, played the role OF
savior of the state through the coun-
ty last week with his usual modest
abandon, but gave Oroville the cold
and clammy pass up. Tom spouted
here during the primary campaign and
as a result he did not get vote. He
was fearful that his egotistical brand
of law exercise would have the same
effect at the general election, and is
taking his chances on a line of silence.
The most encouraging reports OF
the prospects of the whole republican
ticket Sits in from all parts OF the
county. The various candidates are
ginning strength every day, and from
present appearances it looks like
walk away. The reason for this fav-
orable prospect is that from senator
70 commissioners one of the strongest
tickets is in the field that was ever
before nominated. Every man on 1t
will be an ornament to the once 1oF
| which he is running
Among the exhibits ut the office OF
the Osoyoos company is fully matur-
cd stock of cotton containing two cot
ION pods. This cotton was grown IN
the valley, and those who profess TO
know something about cotton growing
claim that this Okanogan sample COM
mares favorably with the best grown
in the cotton states OF the south.
Whether cotton growing in this eli
mata could be mode commercially
profitable is Il question, yet the sue
cess that has followed the planting OF
q few seeds should be encouragement
TO try cotton growing on larger
scale However, we do not expect to
ever see this locality one of the great
cotton producing see lions of the coun-
try.
The announcement of Harry e.
Stark, republican candidate for sher-
if. appears in another column. Mr..
Stark is before the people of this
county for recollection, and he has no
pledge for the future other than a
ronetition of the record he has made
