WORK TO RESUME.

After suspension Of operations for
some two months work will be resum-
ed at the Ivanhoe mine ON the first of
August, and the management feels
confident that development will con-
tinue steadily until the true value OF
the property has been demonstrated
Upon no mining claim in this part of
the Northwest, where so much work
has been done in asst years, Eas opera
tons been conducted sc systematically
as at the Ivanhoe. The original plan
was to make mine and the work has
been conducted with that single aim in
view at all times. Capital for carry
ing on the development Was not de-
pendent upon stock sales and hence
little publicity has been sought by the
operators since the groull was first
broken. 1t is simply a legitimate
business proposition, carried cut en-
busines principals, and this will result
in making paying mine if ore of suf-
ficient value is in the mountain at that
point to make a paying mine and the
is confident there is. If
the Ivanhoe proves to b9 success it
will give a stimulus to mining in this
part of the country that will be follow
cd by the renewal of ok on many
Idle properties and the opening of
Numerous new claims. Net even the
irrigation system would dc more to
bring this country to tn, front with a
rush than one real, paying mine, and
that is what everybody Lopes may re-
suit from further development on the
Ivanhoe.

IMPORTANT REAL ESTATE DEAL.

One of the most important real
estate transfers that has taken place
since the letting of the irrigation con-
tract, which has already given an i'm
petus to lot buying, was the purchase
made last week from A. ]. Wells, of
Wenatchee, by w. J. and r. j. Frank,
of lot 4, block A, town of Orovillo.
This is the 25-foot lot on tho east side
Of Main street, between First and Rail-
road avenue, upon which the Hoskyn
office building stands. The sale means
the early beginning of tie construc-
ticn upon what promises to be the
largest and most attractive brick bust
ress block in town. The Franks, faith
Ter and son, own the adjoining lot to
the north, where the Buckingham bar
ber shop is located, end that gives
them one of the most desirable inside
frontages on the street. We are in
formed by Mr.. Frai,k that it is the in
tention to put up a modcrnly appoint
cd brick business hlock three stories
in height, on design that will make
it one of the finest buildings of the
kind to be found anywhere in the state
outCide of the largest cities. This
shows that the Franks have every con-
fidcnce in Oroville and is an indication
OF what may be expected in the way of
growth within the n5xt few years.

CITIZENSHIP QUESTIONED.

There was quite an audience at the
council chambers Monday evening, at
tracted by rumor that there might
be sensational developments during
the session. At one time it savored of
fire works when l. N. Wickersham got
up and asked Mayor Prentice if he
were a citizen of the United States.
This aroused the righteous indigna-
ton of his honor, and very promptly
and emphatically the mayor retorted
with the declaration that it was none
of the questioners business, and volun-
teered the information that he (the
mayor would be found presiding at
every regular or special meeting of
the council, whenever his health would
permit, or words to that effect.
A rumor has been floating around
for some time that Mayor Prentice was
not a legal citizen, and from what
source it eminated is not known. A
reporter interviewed Mr.. Prentice on
the subject, Tuesday, and the gentle
man made the following statement
THE animus of Mr. Wickersham,
and few others who supported my
election, grows out of my refusal to
declare the office of town clerk vacant

promise prior to election, and the town
clerk, so far as l can ascertain, has
performed his duties faithfully and
efficiently. No complaint has been
made against him, ana no grounds SO

In an effort to bring discredit upon
myself and nullify the acts of my ad-
ministration the report has been cir

my citizenship has never heretofore
been questioned. 1t is true that l was
