No New Plan or Move in Situation.
by The Associated Press.)

G%ulfport, Miss, Jan. 3.-President
Wilson today announced hat his con-
ference with John Lind had developed
no change in the policy of the
Washington administration toward
Mexico aud that no new plan or
move in the situation had been de-
cided upon.
The President referred to the con-
ference as a get together talk" for
mutual Information. He explained
that although Mr.. Lind constantly a
been sending full dispatches, a cOn-
%versation Of a few hours had been
deemed worth more than weeks Of
telegraphic communication with the
added value of affording an exchange
of viewpoint regarding the situation
in Mexico.
President Wilson added that
there had been no special occasion
for Mr.. Lind's visit-no advices. or
new questions.
Conversation Covered Whole Field.
The President said that his conver-
sation with Mr.. Lind had covered
the whole field Of conditions in Mex
leo, but hat no particular measur
or plan had been dwelt upon.
When asked If he was hopeful for a
speedy settlement Of the trouble Mr..

just why the Nations Chief Execu-
tive decided not to permit Mr.. Lind
TO have any shore cave" and took
upon himself the inconvenience of be-
ing trans-shipped four times at sea,
has not been explained. President
Wilson volunteered no explanation,
but one of the suggestions current,
is that he did not wish the special
envoy to be subjected to the inQuisi-
ton of the correspondents. Another
theory is that the President desired
TO show Mexico there there is no
change in the American policy and
no actual interruption Of Mr.. Lind's
mission to Mexico.

MADE A GOOD IMPRESSION

A. j. Wilson, of Spokane, one of the
several republican candidates for con-
gress from the fifth congressional
district, spent last Thursday night and
a portion of Friday in Oroville. and
during his stay met a number of the
cltlzens of this place. Mr.. Wilson
made very favorable impression as
he will in any place he may visit in
the district. He has been engaged for
number of years in the retail lumber
business in Spokane and his success
IN that line shows him to be a capable
business man. He is exceedingly pop
u'ar among all classes, and especially
among laboring men, whose confidence
and respect he has won by his ster-
ling sense of right and justice, and his
Uniform lair dealing. He is a plain,
solid and substantial citizen, a man
among men. He has had much ex-
rerience IN public affairs and wide
acquaintance among men of influence
throughout the country. His private
and public life is above reproach, and
even candidates running for the same
office testify to his sterling character.
Mr. Wilson is certainly a charming
gentleman to meet, and his plan of
campaign of getting around among
the voters and meeting them PERSONAL
ly will be a powerful factor in aiding
him to secure the nomination and sub
sequent election.

TENNIS TOURNEY

The Okanogan county tennis tour
ney this year will be held at Loomis
commencing Thursday, September 3,
and it will be the most interesting
meet that has ever been held in this
county both in point of attendance and
number of crack players who will
participate. Penticton tennis experts
will be present in force. These visit
ors will take part in the all comers
events, and not in the county events.
There will be four players from Ia
coma, two gentlemen, and two of the
fastest lady players on the coast. Be-
sides these outside visitors there will
be players from all parts of the county,
and the meet will furnish excitement
and entertainment to all interested in
the pleasing and graceful sport. Those
who attend will see tennis as it is
played by those who know how. The
good people of Loomis will arrange to
furnish entertainment and accommo-
dations for visitors and that is saying
that every visitor will be made to feel
at home. There is no community In
the county that can surpass that of
Loomis for generous hospitality. The
tennis players of Oroville should get
busy and practice and have represen-
tstives at the Loomis tourney.

A SLIGHT FINE

w. Willis Clark, living on Nine-mile
creek, was tried before Judge Par
sons Saturday on a charge OF having
shot cattle belonging to a neighbor,
plead guilty and was fined 50 and
costs. There were such eXtenuating
circumstances in connection with the
crime, if crime it could really be call
ed. that the light punishment was
wholly justifiable. 1t appeared from
the statement by the accused that tw
COWS had gotten into Mr.. Clark's grain
field. which was not fenced at the
time He drove them out, but as they
presisted in returning he shot the
animals with No. 6 shot. The COWS
were not seriously injured. Even the
nrosecuting witness was so well sat
isfied that there was no malicious IN
font in the shooting that he insisted III

Residents of the locality must not
feel that the prosecutors office is
either neglectful of duty, or desires
to modify in the least punishment TOT

made that cattle have been mallcto"s-
" shot and killed on Nine-mile creek
and the officers are making everY ell

WON AT CHESAW

The sixth annual fair of the Che
saw Fair Association was held last
week, attracting good attendance
rom the surrounding country. One of
the attractions of the fair was a base
ball tournament, for prlzes of Sl5G
and 500 participated in by teams
from Chesaw, Wauconda and Orovile
The first game Thursday was between
Chesaw and Wauconda, in which Che
saw was victorious. Friday afternoon
Oroville was compelled to play two
games. The first was against Wau-
conda, in which Blackler pitched for
Oroville, Oroville winning by score
of to A. The game between Chesaw
and Oroville that followed an hour
later was one of the best ever played
n Chesaw, and was intensely eXcit-
ing from start to finish. Jess Davis
did the twirling for Chesaw, and Bry-
an occupied the mound for Oroville.
The game settled down to a pitchers
battle, Oroville finally succeeded in
winning by score of 3 to 2, carrying
off the $3.50 purse. The boys state
that it was one of the hardest contests
that they have taken part in this sea-
son. and there have been a number of
rafting close and stubborn games
played by the locals this summer.
