Tuesday was entirely lost in this Of
flee owing to the shut down of the
electric power plant. The shutting of
OF power was unavoidable but that did
not make the worry and trouble, and
expense any the less to us. These an
noying Interruptions will cease when
the new plant is in working order, and
that is something to look forward to.
The residents of the valley have
thought the winds recently in circu-
lation were pretty stiff, but they we're
gentle %zephyrs as compared with the
blows experienced at Penticton, Kere-
meos and other places not so far away.
Those who were at Keremeos Monday
report heavy winds and extreme cold.
but one day last week the wind blew
hard enough to blow owe silos and I'M
roof houses at Penticton and Kere-
meos.
The Okanogan Independent rather
errored in a report published 70 the
effect that y. ID. and A. r. Porter, of
Spokane, accompanied by their wives,
stopped over night in that place
Wednesday of last week. J. ID. Porter
of Spokane. and A. R. Porter, Of Port
land, undoubtedly did visit Okanogan,
as they did Oroville, but they were &C
cOmpanied by a daughter of J. d. Por-
ter and two of Miss Porter's young la
dy friends.
Manager Taylor of the Standard Oil
station, informs us that the gasoline
shortage is really serious. The local
plant is out this week, and a fresh sup
ply cannot be expected for ten days.
The supply is now drawn from Wyo-
backed up against the wall. However,
it produces the power required and
those who have to use the volitile stuff
can forgive the smell if the car is
pushed along.
Mr.. and Mrs. 7. B.. Jones, bother-in-
law and sister of Misses Lillian and
Bernice Domerese, arrived in Oroville
Sunday by motor from Wenatchee and
left Monday taking the young ladies,
who are members of the school faculty
out with them. Mr.. Jones is manager
of the Midway Motor Co., at both We
natchee and Waterville. The Misses
Domerese will return to Oroville neXt
fall to resume their former positions
in the school.
Another bad break occurred in the
main flume on the West Okanogan
Valley Irrigation system Saturday
afternoon and Engineer Zediker and
a large force of men consumed two
days or more getting the break re-
paired. 1t is unfortunate that these in
terruptions to the delivery of water
should occur just at a time when land
owners need the moisture, but such
accidents are ~inseparable from irriga-
ton systems.

John M. Darnell, representing the
American Paper company, was a Wis
itor in town Over Sunday on one of
his regular trips. People have little
idea of the enormous amount of paper
used as apple wrappers, and Mr.. OAR
nell centrainly opened our eyes in
this respect. He informed us that We
natchee fruit men used 120 cars of
this paper and one familiar with the
light weight of the wrapper can form
at least slight conception of the mar
velous quantity of apples grown, and
handled and shipped out of Wenatchee.
Dean G.. H. Severance, who attended
the annual convocatiOn of the Episco-
pal church at Spokane last week, was
elected a member of the Bishops
Council" with sever other clergymen
of the diocese, and was also appointed
a member of the ecclesiastical court.
This is a we'll deserved honor rendered
to a young man who has demonstrated
his executive and organizing ability
by building up congregations in the
district over which he presides, and a
district in which it requires hard work
and constant application to arouse any
interest in church work.

Roy Vincent was in town Tuesday
from his home near Chesaw and re-

for Spokane, making that city the same
evening. Saturday they went to Che
ney to be present at the closing exer-
cises of the Normal school and to at
tend a gathering of the alumni, Mrs.
Covert being a graduate of the school.
There was a large attendance and Mr..
and Mrs. Covert had a most enjoyable
time. They left Cheney Sunday after
noon, stopping over night at Coulee
City and arriving home early Monday
evening. In the main the roads are re-
ported good and especially from Coulee

Coulee City showed more signs of i'm

Speaking of the Omak-Oroville ball

Elton G.. Rice's genial countenance
decorated the %teller's window at the
First National Bank, Monday. He was
extending a helping hand to help out
a depleted force while Cashier Starrett
was over to Keremeos warbling with
the local vaudeville troupe.
In order to bring back the flock of
pleasure seekers who went to Kere-
meos Monday somewhere within reas-
enable time the train was held at that
station until 2 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing. That gave the Oroville contingent
time enough to make a day and a night
of 1t.
When a break in the irrigation sys-
TEN occurs the force employed by the
district has no soft snap. That break
has to be fixed, and fixed quick.
Double shifts go on and it is dig in

valley depends on water and water is
going to be supplied if hustling will
keep the channel open.

They were good fish, too, for through
the Kindness of Mr.. Taylor We had an
opportunity to sample the catch.
From the size of the crowd that left
Monday morning on the Princeton
train 1t looked as though about half
OF the population was headed for Kere-

were so full that the legs of the pas

nounce evil, 10 expose sham. 10 advocate
political righteousness. and to summon
his readers to the accomplishment Of high
ideals
His boldness ia the political arena
was shown when he renounced his afilia-
tions with the republican party, which
had honored him with high office, be-
cause he could not conscientiously in
dcrse his party's compromising and cow
ardly attitude on the liquor question.
ITO announce himself as a party pro-
hlbitionist meant unpopularity, scorn. rid
icule, abuse and political oblivion-but
he hesitated not.

SUNDANCE, Wyo., Aug. 2-There are
many legends regarding Devils Tower,
the famous basalt mOnolith that rises al
most sheer 1900 feet from the top of a
hill twenty-five miles northeast of Sun
dance, and which HAS been set aside by
the federal government as n national mon-
ument.
A legend new to the "pale-faces of this
section was told recently to Gen. Hugh
L. Scott, L. S. A, by an aged ogalalla
Sioux.
Here is the story:
Ages and ages ago seven Indian maid
ems We're disporting themselves on the
hill where Devils Tower now stands,
when they were attacked by bears.
They took refuge on rock and be-
seeched MaRitou to preserve them.
The ravenous bears rushed at the rock
and began climbing its sides, but mlrac-
ulOusly the rock began to grow higher.

Maj A. J. Dalrymple, federal enforce
ment officer said that from Jan. TO
July 1, his force had confscated 100000
worth of liquors.
In the same period, according to Capt.
Hubert Howard, state prohibition agent,
$2,445,O00 worth of liquors was stolen
from licensed dealers.
Included in Dalrymple's estimate were
1890 cases and All barrels Of whisky
and carload of wines and cordials.
His representatives also destroyed 9S6
Illicit stills.
Howard said ffty-seven dealers, n"stly
druggists. had reported the theft of H.
$40 cases and 400 barrels of whisky.
He expressed the belief that fully 10
per cent of these thefts were flake
burglaries," the dealers having sold the
booze and failed to report it.

men Devils Tower, but which, said the
old Ogalalla warrior, the Sioux always
identified as Bear Lodge because of its
origin and its resemblance IN form TO a
titanic Indian lodge.
The bears, the old Indian continued,
finally desisted in their efforts to reach
the maidens, but not before their claws
had scratched tremendous burrows in the
sides of the growing rock and the rock
had become so tall that the maidens,
although safe from the bears, were un-
able to descend and persisted miserably
from thirst and starvation.
Their spirits, the old Sioux related.
