GIVES HIM A SURPRISE.

Mrs. Matte Williams of this place
was recently visitor in Seattle. Whlle
there she endeavored to convey to her
brother-in-law, Jess Russell, soma
idea of the superiority of Oroville
fruit over all competitors, but Mr.,
Russell was rather skeptical insisting
that the best fruits of the land found
their way to the Seattle market, and
vet. the best did not come up to the
description given by Mrs. Williams OF
the Oroville product. Mrs. Williams
was qipued at the incredulity OF her
relative, so when she returned nome
she secured a quantity of fruit from
the Whistler orchard and shipped 1t to
hcr obdurate relative. The sight ana
taste of that fruit was a revelation TO
that unbeliever. Mrs. Williams has had
= letter from Mr.. Russell, in which he
obiectly apologies for questioning her
statements. and is more fluent in the
oroiso of the fruit than Mrs. Will
;or,e was when she tried to impress
him with it's superiority. He declared
that during his 27 years OF residence
an the coast he has never seen nor
tasted choicer fruit than what was
.,,nt 70 him from Oroville. This is the
kind of fruit this valley produces
where water is applied, and when the
West Okanogan Valley Irrigation sys-
fem is in operation the same quality ol
fruit can be produced on every acre
ndor tbe ditch. The wise man is he
who takes time by the forelock and
secures some of this land while the
rrice is within reach. 1t is bound tc
advance within the next few years

WILL MAKE A RECORD.

After spending his summer vaca-
ton in this locality Will Irby left
Thursday for Kansas City, where he
reenters the medical college to renew
his studies. Young Mr.. Irby is taking
a thorough course In medicine and
surgery. When he finishes at the col
lege and has been awarded a sheep
skin, lie will not go forth to prey on
his fellow men with superficial
knowledge of the great science of
medicine. He does not intend to COM
mence practice after the customary
and regulation four year term in col
lege, but will continue on in hospital
work and experience for two more
years after leaving college. OF course
Will Irby will make good. The stuff is
in him out of which successful men
are made. He will succeed, and his
success will be another object lesson
to explode the loud-mouthed declara-
tion of demagogues that the young
man no longer has chance in the
battle of life. The boy who puts forth
effort, is ambitious and not afraid Of
work can succeed now as well as at
any time since the dawn of history. A
boy must have an aim in life, be will
ing to make sacrifices in order to at
tain that aim, must subordinate pleas
ure to effort, and he will get there.
Mr. Irby is that kind OF boy. During
the summer months he did not waste
his time loafing about the streets. He
went directly upon farm and work
ed steadily through out the summer,
keeping himself in fine physical con-
dition, and at the same time earning
money to carry him through college.
Such energy and determination cannot
be denied when applied for a certain
purpose and Mr.. Irby sets an exam
pie that other young men could fol-
low to their benefit and profit.

COMING TO THE FRONT.

| Residents of Oroville and the north
ern part of Okanogan valley little re-
alize the attention that is being at
tracted to this part of the state on the
ouslde, not only in Washington, but on
the coast and in the eastern states.
The resources and opportunities that
have always existed here are still
awaiting those who are sometime to
take advantage of them, and might
have continued waiting for years to
come had not the West Okanogan VAL
ley Irrigation project been inaugu-
rated. 1t requires the starting of some
big enterprise having for its aim the
development of some certain resource
of great and distinctive promise, to
draw attention 10 locality, and espec-
tally such as this irrigation project,
reclaiming vast acreage anu requiring
the expenditure of al enormous
amount OF money, for enterprises of
this character are teralded far and
wide and consequently attention is
concentrated upon the place where
such activity existc. The railroad Off
cials have done much to spread the
news of the Inauguration of this recla-
nation scheme, newspapers have men
toned the fact, and the word has been
carried broad cast by correspondence
and travellers who have been upon the
ground and could Cpeak from personal
observation. Already the country is
feeling the influeLc1 of this publicity
People are corliL 6 in to investigate,
and many letters Ct inquiry are being
reccived. The construction of the irri-
cation system will be a potent factor
attracting settlers and investors, and
Fastening the development to the ut
most OF the rich agricultural and hor
ticultural resources. But benefits to
flow from the publicity are not to end
there. There are other dormant re-
sources in this fortunately favored
part of the state, especially in the way
of mineral deposits, that will attract
the attention of the new arrivals, and
attention will be followed by active
investigation aid exploration. The
outlook was never more rosate. 1t
looks as though the country was COM
ing into the better days some of us
have waited so long to see realized.
Every indication points to the speedy
filling up of this part Of the country,
the rapid growth of Oroville as an in
cident of that filli--g up, and en- active
and thorough development of every
natural resource in this vicinity.

John Wentworth, the old and we'll
known Loomis Boniface, was in town
several days during the week. Con-
ducting a hotel has been only an Incl
dent in Mr.. Wentworth's career at
Loomis, as most of his tim has been
devoted to mining He has control of
a number of choice properties in the
north part of tho county that show
evidence of being of great mineral
value, and although ne has waited long
to realize some return from these
claims that have cost Kim considerable
in both labor ald money, he feels that
the time is neGr It hand when there
will be a revival IN Mining, and then
he can hardly fail to win out. Among
the properties he has control of are
the Lone Pine md Copper World EX-
tension, and for surface indications
there are few mi,ing locations any
where hat will surpass them. And be-
sides the indications at the surface
much underground work has been
done on them, cxpo~ing large ore
bodies.

unfamiliar with tho fertility of the
soil of this locality. The beets were
grown on the Guy Gilmour place, on
the hillside 10 the west overlooking
town. From that place Mr.. Gilmour
usually markets The first vegetables
of the season, and his fruits as we'll
as vegetables are he choicest grown.
His land is simiicr to that of the val
ley under the irrigation system that
is being installed. The Zig ditch fol-
lows the hillside just below the Gill
mour ranch, and W 'cn completed and
water turned on, these irrigated lands
will raise the came superior fruits
and vegetables. Such exhibits as are
here mentioned ere object lessons,
providing visible evidence to the
stranger as to The richness of the val
ley lands under ne West OkGnogan
Valley Irrigation system.

This country may be the great melt

This country may be the great melt
ing pot" for the nations of the earth,
but evidence is accumulating that the
element3 do not arlalgamate, and in
case of trouble, the foreigner is liable
to prove a traitor to the land and flag
of his adoption Too many of the Suks-
doris, and the hunters, and others of
that ilk have reared their reasonable
heads in the time of stress, when this
country was in danger of reaching
strained relations with a foreign
power, and it is a time when the true
American people should awaken to the
menace from the vipers that this coun-
try has nourish-d. AS a preventative
from like exhibitions in the future the
next congress should pacs the most
stringent immigration laws. If all for
eign immigration could be excluded
for a time it might work greatly to
the advantage of the country. No
American citizen whether native born
or naturalized, can serve two separate
nationalities. He is either for America
or against America, and the foreigner
in our midst against the government
is most dangerous element. 1t would
have been wiser long ago to have put
up some bars to the open door through
which it was so easy for those to pass
who came to new country to better
their condition and bettered it, though
grateful for the chance that was thus
given tehm.

A network of new timbers stretch
out over the flat on the south side of
the Similkameen river, in plain sight
of town, looking like a cash in the hill
side in it's raw newness. That is a part
of the irrigation system in process of
construction. Its purpose is to link the
units on the north and south side of
the river. 1t is there that the huge
snake-like siphon will carry water
from the main canal on the north side
and empty it into this section of fun
ing to be conveyed on southwark to
bring into rich life the semi-arid lands
that the system is intended to reclaim
According to the original plans, this
siphon was to cross the river near the
railroad bridge, but that necessitated
the carrying of the fumes and bitches
|along a sinuous route on the hill side,
south of the river, which would be in
danger from slieds or breaks, and
when a break should occur it would
be very difficult of repair. This
change reduces the length of the ditch
where a ditch is expensive building,
but it means a longer siphon, which SO
far as expense of construction is con-
cerened, is a stand off in cost, so the
contractors are gaining nothing by the
transfer of spihon sites.

John Walmer is one of the most sue
cessful fishermen in this locality, and
he has the unique distinction of be-
ing the oily fisherman on record who
does not catch big fish, and never
hooks whale that eventually escapes.
Piscatory pastime and veracity never
travel hand in hand, and when a man
addicted to the fishing habit can be
found who will abide strictly to the
truth, he is entitled to a halo Walmer
is that kind of man, although many
will doubt that such a man has ever
been discovered. In his modest way he
says he can catch only the smallest of
the finny tribe, although he tries hard
enough to catch the big ones. If he
cannot catch big ones at least there
are members of his family that can.
The other day Walmer was out in his
boat fishing accompanied by his little
son. The boy was playing at fishing
with cork bob, or float, and hauling
in nothing while the father was snak-
ing perch out of their native element
almost as fast as he could bait his
hook. Suddenly the bob d.cked out
of sight, and the boy had real bite.
The father made no effort to assist his
excited and prespiring offspring, only
volunteering the advise of a veteran
as to how to play the fish After a long
and to the boy a desperate struggle, in
which the lad vas almost exhausted,
the fish at last save up the fight, and
it was then necessary for Mr.. Walmer
to land the catch in the boat. 1t prov
ed to be a magnificent black bass that
weighed six pounds after it was dress
ed. Young Walmer was the proudest
youth in town.

ABNORMAL GROWTH.

During the past week several sugar
beets have been on exhibition in the
show window of the Orovillo CONNER

these specimens were more like the
Jagged stumps of huge trees than any
thing in the nature of vegetable
growth or plant life. The beets were
enormous, and naturally drew much
attention, especially from strangers
