SMOKE FIRST MISTAKEN FOR EF
FECTS OF OTHER FIRES
Large
Sections of Wallowa County
Forests are Aflame.
Enterprise, Ore., Aug. 2. Forest
fires are now known to be raging in
portions of the Blue Mountains here.
What was at first mistaken to be
drifting smoke from the north fires,
has proven to be serious fires In the
northwest, south and southeast of En
terprise. Sunday evening smoke In
great clouds, extending against the
sky perhaps twenty miles, was seen
rising from the timber sections west
of here.' South the Bame Bight pre
sented. Southeast the mountains
were clothed In smoke, and fire has
been found on the west fork of the
Wallowa' river. Back farther Into the
mountains the peaks can not, be seen
from here or Joseph owing to. the
smoke. Rangers are on the scene and
it Is thought the flames will be pre
vented from spreading Into a wide,
general conflagration. Little or no
danaer exists In the Immediate vicin
ity of EnterprlseV nor along the slope
of mountains on this side, owing to
the absence of all u'llerbrush on this
side. The underbrush was totally des
troyed by private fires.
