EB. Newland passed through Oro
ville Tuesday on his way to his home
near Molson after a tour of the couno-,
during which he made a point to couw*
in direct touch with the bone and
sinew of the population, the farmers.
Kverywhere he met with encourage
ment in his candidacy for the legisla
ture, and furthermore found a very
strong and wide spread sentiment fa
voring county division, even in those
communities where the howl against
division Is the loudest.
Geo. W. Flucky and W. G. Winker,
of Toledo, Ohio, who are Interested in
the Rich Bar mine, located Just above
the falls of the Slmllkameen, have
been spending the week In Oroville and
at the mine. These gentlemen have
been connected with the mining in
terests of Okanogan county for a
number of years, and in the Rich Bat
have certainly a very encouraging
holding. Personally they are pleasant
and affable gentlemen whom it is a
pleasure to meet on their occasional
visits to the west.
When the room Is all completed
Barnes, the picture man. will have one
of the most modernly complete and
best appointed gallarles that can he
found In any of the smaller towns of
the state. Mr. Stofferan has the sky
lights In, and they are of heavy ground
and barred plate glass. That expert
paper hanger, Jim Fraser, Is decorat
ing the rooms in a manner that will
make them cheerfully attractive. Be
sides the gallery proper there is a neat
reception room and a well furnished
dark developing roomr Mr. Barnes ex
pects to be located and ready to do
business within a few days.
Fred. Pflaging, formerly of Concon
ully wehre he was an attachee of the
court house in one capacity and an
ther for a long period, was in town
last Thursday night. The gentleman
with the name that looks like the dia
gram of the fluctuation of the prices of
some staple product over a series of
years, is now holding a position with
the Great Northern railroad, something
in the nature of tax commissioner, and
as such large corporations never hook
up with a man who is not possessed
of more than ordinary ability, this
county can figure out that it lost a val
uable citizen when Mr. Pfiaging moved
elsewher. Mis elevation of position
has In no wise swelled Mr. Pfiaging,
for he is the same happy, jovial indi
vidual that he always was when chas
ing around C'onconully for a bare ex
istence.
FALSE ALARM.
Some unknown party turned In a
false alarm of fire Tuesday evening,
causing somewhat of a commotion, and
giving the fire boys a little exercise.
Turning in u false alarm should be
made punishable by a heavy fine, and
every effort should be made to discov
er any one guilty of the act. One thing
about the alarm was that It demon
strated that the volunteer firemen are
not very prompt assembling at ‘the
hose houses, and this duty should be
strongly impressed upon them. The
first thing a fireman should do at the
tap of the bell is to rush to the places
where apparatus is stored. A fireman
can do nothing at a Are without the
tools, and it Is not fair that two or
three men’be left to pull their lungs
out dragging a hose cart to where It
will he of some Use.

The Alma Flouring Mills of Okan
ogan and tin 1 Okanogan Creamery will

The exhibits will consist of all the

A gold nodal or silver loving cup
has been hung up by the fair associa

There are signs to be observed al
most daily just now that would Indi
cate that before long the town water
works will have a healthy monthly in
come. The signs are in the shape of a
continual tearing up of the streets for
the placement of water pipes for con
sumers. Our water system is one of
the best to be found In any of the
smaller towns of the state, and every
householder within tupping distance
of the mains should catch on. not
only for the convenience to the con
sumer. but every additional tap In
creases the revenue, and the water
works, and the extension of the ser
vice. should be encouraged.
Miss Edith Christianson came over
from visiting with her sister In Horse
Spring coulee the latter part of last
week, and has gone to Penticton to
spend some weeks,
Peter K. Frisk ami Miss Ellen O.
Rise were united in marriage at the
residence of K. X. Grubb, the old Mc-
Donald home, Monday evening. Judge
Geo. .1. Gardiner tying the knot with
neatness and dispatch. A suspicion
that Mr. Frisk was to abandon the
ranks of the bachelor brigade has ex
isted for some time, so that his tak
ing the plunge was no surprise to
friends. Mr. and Mrs. Frisk are re
cipiants of many congratulations, and
a long life and a happy one is the wish
of all who know them.
Dr. Effner and C. A. Blatt rolled In
to (own from Molson last Friday even
ing, spent a short time mingling
among their friends, and returned
home the same evening. This trip Il
lustrates the tpiickness of the auto as
a means of transportation. Mr. Blatt
had some business in Oroville, and
was trying to talk over the telephone.
Doc. Kffner was present and volun
teered to lake Mr. Hiatt down to Oro
ville in his car. They hopped In and
sailed down the hill, arriving while
Hiatt’s voice was reeling off the line
at this end, which would go to Indi
cate that Doc Kffner Is some of a speed
hug, and has a car that travels.
