Talk about sending Goals to New
castle, there was sight that beat that
incongruity at the depot Monday when
large shipment of fruit was taken on
| the passenger train for Wenatchee.
The only way to account for it is that

| There is no desire to spread the re-
port that there is work in Oroville for
all who may come this way. The town

ployment here for all who may come.
Lew Prentice recently purchased a
span of mules from DR.. Elmer, and

had on hand as a means of facilitating
transportation before he managed to
get into the automobile class.
Harry Silke, who with his partner,
Mr.. LaPlant, had the contract for grad
ing the several streets in the town, is
here now to make such changes in
certain portions of the work as the
town authorities require. He and his
partner have just secured a contract
for putting in dam in the Colville
river, near Kettle Falls. for q large
power company. The job is big one
and will keep the firm busy all winter.
r. Grieger has moved his large and

and Spokane street. This gives him
larger and better space in which to

useful articles and is gradually build
