ENCOURAGING REPORTS.

Howard L. Mooney, formerly the
bright light of the Nelson Leader, and
now engaged in the real estate busi-
ness with headquarters at Spokane. he
having outgrown this limited field in
the game he is playing, was in Oroville
last Thursday for few hours, coming
down from Nelson where he was
spending few days on business. Mr.
Mooney brought in very encouraging
report as to crop conditions in the
hill country. For a number of years
Mr.. Mooney had to keep pretty close
tab on crop conditions in the Nelson
country. as his bread and butter de-
pended pretty largely upon what the
harvest might be, and hence he is in q
position to speak with some authority
upon the crop situation. He states that
he has never seen crops looking better
in that section at this season during
the last five years, and he predicts
| If there is no unforeseen drawback that
there will be larger wheat yield next
fall than for any season for the past
five years. That listened mighty good
to us as We have been pulling for some
return for the boys of the hill country
fOr three years. A fairly good crop
this season will set lot of the farm
ers who were almost down and out
upon their feet again.

being driven by Mr.. Braslauer with
his fine black roadsters which we.,

road, and the fact that they travelled
a distance of nearly 100 miles in
little over two and one half days, wa

way, had his first experience as a

at Spokane. He did not make his
money ma print shop, however, but
by careful investments in real estate
managed to feather his nest and we
know of ne more worthy of being
feathered. AS to c. C. May, that un-
fortunate gentleman of cherished
memory, ask of the winds and hope
not for an answer We must always
feel that he was victim of persecu-
ton, although he passed from view
under cloud. For years we have
heard vague rumors Of his whera-
bouts and his conditions, and only y
short time ago was informed that b.
had died in obscurity in the east,
where he had fled to escape the hui
initiation of sentence upon a charge
that we believe, if the truth were
known. he was guiltless of intended
wrong.

PICNIC>AT CITY PARK.

The Odd Fellows and Rebekahs OF
this place held picnic at the City
Park Sunday which was we'll attended,
although getting there was accompaa-
led under considerable difficulty. The
new road to the park has never been
surfaced and hence is impossible for
cars. Quite number drove as near
the park as possible and then walkel 4
the balance of the distance, which was
trying undertaking considering the
excessive heat. Others assembled nj
the bath houses, or at the Works cot
tages, on the lake, and from those rem
devious were taken to the pic mic
grounds In launches The trouble in
getting there did not detract from the
pleasure of the gathering after the
park was once reached. The day was
spent in bathing, and resting, and par
taking Of appetizing eats. Luckily the
pleasure seekers reached home before
the big wind kicked up the waters of
the lake until travel over that route
became dangerous.

Hon. ]. Stanley Webster, congress
man from the Fifth district, stopped
over in Oroville Tuesday night on his
way to his home at Spokane from
Chelan, where he delivered the 4th OF
July Grafton. Not only has Mr. Web
ster made one of the most efficien,
congressman that this state has ever
sent to Washington, but he stands
high as a gentleman of exceptional
ability in that body of law makers. He
is man who tries to be strictly fair
and just with all classes in his official
capacity, but we especially admire him
for having the courage of his convic-
tions and never hesitating to express
them. He bears no false front nor docs
he temporize on any public question
in order to gain votes. He is a straigh,
out American favoring such legisla-
tion that will prove to insure the
greatest good to the greatest numbers

CUT IL OUT.

We are informed by those who hap
pened to be on Main street late Sun
day night that there was a disgracefui
exhibition of drunkenness, some OF
those soused being mere boys. The
enforcement of the prohibition laws is
a screaming farce in this locality, and
for the good name of the town, name
that is not any too good away from
home, something must be done to elm
mate the bootlegger and severely pun
ish those who persist in appearing in
public in an intoxicated condition.
Many people may be opposed to the
law, We all may be too lenient in wink
ing at infringements of a law that DOES
not seem to be popular but the time has
come when there should be a change OF
sentiment. The law is the law and it
should be enforced. Our marshal has
more than one man can very well at

from source that is not any too plen-
tiful. 1t cannot be expected that he be

Occasionally there is al individual
with whisky courage who flouts an Of
ficer. Those birds should be treated
rough. Let them know they are not
running the town by the use of a base
ball bat or a chunk of lead. Let the
better element of the town get back OF
the officials, because there is better
element that has been too long passive
and make Oroville such desirable
place to live in that We will not hesi-
tate to write down the name of our
town when we register at a hotel on
the outside.

SANE AND SAFE 4TH OF JULY.

| Oroville laid off celebrating the 4th
OF July this year, but that does not
mean that the residents OF the town
holed up and let the occasion go en-
tirely by default. Members OF the COM
munity observed the great national
holiday in a very safe and sane manner
and almost all OF them took some
method of making the event a holiday.
Coming on Sunday the 4th as a day
we are expected to observe was really
smeared over three days, as there was
scattering of people on the Sd, 4th
and 5th Saturday the ball club went
to Chelan and participated in the
three or four days celebration at that
place. Sunday most of the population
scattered over the face of the country
few went to Chelan on the special
train, number attended the patriotic
services held in the Civic League
grove, large number attended the
Odd Fellows picnic ut the City Park,
on Osoyoos lake, while small partie,
distributed themselves around at the
lakes in the neighborhood, ptting in
the day quietly and nationally. Oroville
was also represented at the Loomis
celebration, and according to reports
had very enjoyable time. Monday the
town was closed tight, as all the bust
ness houses took vacation, but ther.,
was no concentration of the popula.
tion at any given point. 1t was the
mildest 4th of July Oroville has ever
experienced few flags were display
ed Sunday, but there was no burning
OF powder, no noise no excitement Of
any kind. Those who had cars and
could buy, beg borrow or steal enough
hlghpower fluid to turn the wheels
were out Of town, and those not so for
tunate as to possess these modern
means of transportation stuck around
nome. The day was roasting hot. and
during the evening one of the worst
dust storms the upper valley has ex-
perienced in an age blotted out the
landscape. Without hurrah, without;
the customory noise, without the
sweating. tired, milling crowd that
usually attends public celebration
and always goes home grouching and
disappointed no matter what may be
the entertainment provided, without
accidents that are almost inseparaDle
from large gatherings of people, Oro-
lille is to be congratulated upon pass
ing through one glorious fourth in a
rational manner.

Our neighbors down at Tonasket
iounu the summer Chs.u tauuua an ex-
pensiVe luxury, as the entertainments
were not UP TO what were promised un
der the contract. the festival did NOT
uraw as was expected and those who
signed up on the contract are called
upon TO make good the shortage. The
chief reason for the failure at Tomas
het is that too many towns close to-
gether entered into contracts for Chan
tauqua entertainments this summer It
hardly stands to reason that n four or
i've days series of entertainments can
De conducted in small towns so closa
to gether as Nelson, Oroville, Tomas
ket and Riverside and we might add
all the towns down the valley. The res
idents of one of these towns alone can.
not possibly pay out on such con-
tracts. The towns depend upon the sur
rounding country to help out on the
receipts, and the support to be drawn
from the country cannot be expecter
to be divided up between several
place. especially where the program in
one place is repeated in another near
at hand. If Molson, Oroville and To-
nasket could get together and arrange
so that the Chautauqua entertainment
would be given at one town one year
and then pass around the entertain
ment from year to year, these enter
tainments could be made to pay out.
but so long as every community gets
in and signs contracts, just so long
some of these communities will have
to pay through the nose for the pleas
ure. OF course the companies or bu-
reaus engaged in supplying Chautau-
qua attractions do not care a red cent
whether community comes out
ahead or behind just so they land
contract. so it is useless to appeal to
them to give any one town the exclu-
sive right, or distribute the contracts
in such a manner that one will not
conflict with another. We consider
that Oroville was fortunate in not
signing up last winter.

The auxiliary we refer to is old Con-

body of water more than two miles
in length and varying from an eighth
TO q half mile in width and contain
ing a depth which has never Deen

estimate that there is in Conconully

the whole project from May to October
without exhausting the supply.
The reclamation service has pow

arises and the flow from this ola
hodv of water will irrigate the
lands of the government project IN A
manner that will not only keep the
trees of our orchards. in a good healthy
condition but will produce a crop OF
fruit which it is estimated will average
nm with the other fruit sections of the
state.
Tn fact. a fruit inspector told the
editor this week that in the viciplty Oh
! Okanogan the crop would average the
highest in the Wenatchee district
which includes all of the north central
Washington apple lands. Okanogan
estimate by the inspectors is now 10
per cent of what it was last year, whiie
MANY districts are cut down as low as
40 per cent of last years crop.
This is an exceptionally dry year
but not so dry but that the enterprise
and skill of our irrigationists Will meet

The improvements under way In
town and those upon which work is
about to start represents an invest
ment close to 100000, and that Ia not
so worse considering the size of the
town and the high cost of building
material and labor.
The summer meeting of the State
Horticultural society will be held at
Wenatchee on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday, July IA, Is, and 10th. A
program of special interest to all fruit
men will be presented and it is hoped
that as many of the orchardists of this
locality as can spare the time will be
in attendance. Some of the best posted
horticulturalists in the county will be
present to address the meetings.
