WORK DELAYED.

This paper has subscribers in the
east who are asking as to the status
of the Hudson Consolidated Min
ing company, that owns the old Owas-
co mining property 10 lated a short
distance west of Oroville, on the north
bank of the Similkameen river. From
what information We can secure from
c. w. Smith, also interested in the
property, and who is in touch with the
there is little prospect of
work being done on the Hudson until
next fall. The reason for this delay is
that the manager wants to use cleo
tric power both for the drills and for
the mill, and the necessary
power will not be available until after
the power company puts in dam to
develop more power. This dam is to be
this summer, and then it
is proposed to inaugurate work on the
Hudson claims in earnest. The party
in charge of the Hudson has also been
handling mining proposition at ORR
ent, but we are told that he has aban-
doned the Orient venture with the aim
of concentrating all his attention on
the Hudson when conditions are such
that work can begin.

TO IMPROVE THE PLANT.

The Okanogan Valley Power COM
pany, that operates the electric power
plant at the falls of the Similkameen,
is assembling tools and supplies
preliminary to carrying out the extern
sive improvements that the company
has had in contemplation for several
years. This work would have been un-
dertaken long before this had it not
been for the war that put damper on
all public work of this character. 1t
is the intention of the company to put
in dam above the falls in order to
increase the horse power that can be
made available, and in connection with
this dam it is the intention to equip
the plant with improved machinery.
The machinery now in use is out of
date and has been running steadily
for a dozen years. When it is under
stood that the machinery in use is
almost obsolete, and has had so long
use it is really surprising that as good
service as We have can be supplied.
The growing demand for power re-
quires larger and better plant, and
that is what the company proposes to
put in. A very large sum of money will
be expended during the summer in
making the contemplated improve
ments at the falls. and this is going
to give employment to large number
'of men, and the disbursement of that
money and the spending Of the same
will be another source of revenue for
the town that is going to help make
the summer and fall lively period
in OrOville.

TO WORK THE PINNACLE,

j. w. Miller, one of the ancient pros
country, was registered at the Hotel
de Grubb Monday night, on his way
out to Seattle after a visit to his old
stamping ground. Miller and Redpath
located the old Grand View mine on
Chopaka, years ago, and gol out of it
on velvet, although the mine has pass
ed on into ancient history For several
years Mr.. Miller has been living on
a fruit ranch, near Yakima. The min
ing germ is still in his blood and he
reports that himself and E. A. Will
Jams, of Seattle, have taken bond on
the Pinnacle mine, near Loomis,
property that produced some of the
richest free gold specimens ever TAX
en- from the ground in the northwest,
and it is their intention to do much
development work this summer. If
they ever stike the rich ore shoot in
the Pinnacle on the lower workings
they will take out enough gold to pay
the national debt Mr.. Miller is moving
around with much difficulty as he
broke his right leg in two places last
year and rheumatism roasted in the
limb to add to his misery. Otherwise
the old timer is looking as tough and
hardy as he did in the old days when
he lived on pork and beans, and none
too much Of that at times. putting in
many hours with hammer and drill
prospecting the mountain ranges.

Empire trap shooting tournament
opened the weather Sunday was ideal
for the sport. The locals have shot in
wind and snow, rain and cold, in one
instance being prevented from shoot
ing at all by raging blizzard. Sun
day it was calm, bright and warm. As
result large number of trap shoot
ers were out and a crowd of specta-
tors. Furthermore, the shoot was bet
ter than any yet made. Hedger is

HEADED OVER THE ROAD,

H. II. and Rex Bussert, two young
men who were arrested here on
charge of conducting an illicit still as
reported in the Gazette last week,
were given hearing before the U. S.
commissioner, at Okanogan, last week
and were bound over to the federal
court at Spokane for trial. The bonds
were fixed at $1,000 which the boys
had not been able to furnish up to the
last reports. Why these young men
otherwise law abiding, quiet, indus
triOus citizens, should have taken such
chances just for the few dollars that
might be made from moonshine liquor
is beyond all comprehension. H. II.
Bussart is an expert lather and plas-
terer and when at work can earn
large wages. His brother is said to be
equally as skillful in the same line.
True, just now there is nothing doing
in the way of building, but the pros
poets are very bright for more work
in that line in the spring than they
could have handled. Now, they can
hardly expect to escape Jail sentence
with fine attachment and even the
maximum punishment means that they
will retire from business for long
time

take advantage of it and build here
flourishing city. The process of evo-
luton has been slow, and while we
have never lost faith sometimes we
have felt discouraged In the prospect
of not living to see the transformation
we have so often predicted was to
come about. Just now We are cheered
by the prospect Of at least witnessing
the beginning Of the blooming into
flower of that hope so long cherished,
and while we may never see the full
fruition of our dreams our confidence
that future generations will remains
mistaken. The spirit of progress is in
the air. Everybody is talking about 1t.
Everybody believes in it. Everybody is
boosting for it. And it is the force of
united faith, backed by united effort
and the willingness to chance the
home dollars that is starting the. for
ward movement that will gain momen-
tum as promises become realities and
realities that will make for greater
and a better Oroville.

extraction the enterprise would go up
in the air and there would be rud-
den ending of all activities. Research
that has been carried on spasmodical-
ly over,a long period of years has DEM
onstrated that the gravel in the Sim
ilkameen river, and on the banks,
carries considerable placer gold, the
problem being to save the values
Many, many years ago vast sum was
taken out of the river, or the bars
along the river, and a camp said to
have contained at one time as many
as 5000 men, without single woman
flourished at the point where Mr.. Ken
nedy is about to start work. We met an
old fellow a number of years ago
who was working for the late j. M.
Hagerty VINO claimed that he was
present at the Rich Bend mining ex-
citement, that the population was all
OF the number that is mentioned in
this item, and that placer gold to the
amount of 100000 was extracted. We
trust that Mr. Kennedy will be lucky
enough to nit the pay sti eak and find
himself well paid for his efforts.

BACK FROM FRANCE.

| Mr.. and Mrs Geo. H. Jackson arriv-
ed in Oroville last Friday evening and
have come to make this their perman-
ent home. Mr.. Jacklon was formerly
connected with the First National
Bank and was called by the draft last
| spring. He was inducted into the army
at Camp Lewis and assigned to the
346th Field Artillery, of the famous
91st Division, one of the last divisions
to sail for France, and one that wasted
no time in getting into active service,
for with little preliminary training in
| France the division was sent to the
front and took an important part in
it's baptism of fire in the terrible Ar
gonne forest, where many of the brave
boys gave up their lives on the altar
of liberty But the 346th did not get
under fire, as has been explained in
these columns, but was just ready to
move up to spray the boche with shell
| and other explosive compliments as
the armistice was announced. Be-
sides Mr. Jackson Jess Sexson and
Art Potter, now at home, were mem-
| bers of the same regiment. OF course
Mr. Jackson feels disappointed that he
did not get into the mixup, still it is Il
great satisfaction to be back to Oro-
vile, with all the useful attachments
to his anatomy still intact and in
working order. He is looking as
though soldering had agreed with him
and the experience is something fully
worth the time that he spent in the
army. When he entered the service he
was informed that his position in the
bank would be retained for him, and
he is now here to step back into the
niche he temporarily vacated, and the
fact that the bank officials have lived
up 10 their promise is a great credit
to those officials.
Now you will notice that at the be-
ginning of this item it is stated that
Mr.. and Mrs. Jackson" arrived in Oro-
vile on certain date When Jack
doned the uniform of the United States
he was enjoying single blesedness. He
spent some mon hs in sunny France,
but did not fall for the beauties of the
land of the Franks. He was cupid-dart
proof, because he remained true to
the girl he left behind him. Shortly
after the return of the regiment and
the discharge of the members thereof
Mr. Jackson enlisted in the ranks of
the joyous order Of Benedicts, to-wit,
on the 25th of February. and the prize
he drew in the lottery of matrimony
was Miss Mildred Mills, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Mills, of Seattle.
former residents of Oroville, and 1t
! may be added that the connubial
header was not at all unexpected. In
congratulating Mr.. Jackson upon his
safe return from abroad we wish to
add congratulations to himself and his
charming helpmate upon the life con-
tract they have entered upon, wishing
them all the joy and prosperity that
can cone to mortals of this mundane
! sphere.
