Today we open up an
immense line of the
celebrated "R & W."
dress skirts 15 differ
ent patterns in the sea
son's choice weaves
includes Voiles, Pana
mas, Serges and the
staple Mohairs. ' This
line is pronounced the"
best on the market for
the moderate prices
asked. These skirts are
on exhibit this week
This is tonnage in sight,
and this amount with what could
be developed is what induced the
conservative management of the
Holt Manufacturing Co. to take up
the project. As soon as the train
netweon luaaras and MianiKo is
placed upon a paying basis the
road pervice will be extended to
Prineville to accommodate the
trade of our local merchants.
Just what it will cost to put the
roadbed in shape to stand the
heavy traffic is a matter of un
certainty, much depending upon
me condition ot tne tied that was
built last fall. If it can hold up a
train of one hundred tons the work
of the new company will be com
paratively easy. If it does not
skilled roadmakers will e called

be built. The expense of tho road

Because the Deschutes Irrigation
& Power Company has three mort
gages upon its property, the State
Land Board has refused to make
deeda to settlers unless" the com
pany procures from the holders of
the mortgages an express release
of their lien ao far as the particu
lar tracts deeded are concerned
Recently a number of settlers filed
applications for deeds and also
filed receipts showing that they
have paid their obligations to the
rrigation company. Governor
Chamberlain believed that the
mortgages given by the company
constituted a cloud upon the title
and might be the source of much
litigation in the future if settlers
hould be given deeds without the
mortgages being satisfied. In this
view he was supported by Attorney-General
Crawford. Jesse
Stearns, attorney for the company,
appeared before the board and
argued that the settlers would se
cure title free from the mortgages
and asked the board to recede from
its position. The board gave no
decision, but Governor Chamber
lain said after the meeting that he
is firm in his attitude and that no
deed will be signed by him unless
the holders of the mortgages exe
cute releases.

Notice of Annual Meeting
The annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Pioneer Telegraph and
Telephone Company will be held at the
office of the company in the City of
Prineville, Crook county, Oregon, on
Tuesday, May 12th,. 1908, at 10 o'clock
a. m., for he election of directors to
serve for the ensuing year, and for the
transaction oi eucn oiuer business asf
may lawful'y come before the meeting.
H. C. Ellis,
4 23-2w First Vice President.
George Summer and W. A.
Oakman have just returned from a
trip to Eummit Prairie by way of
the Mayflower mines and Lookout
mountain. They cut thirty-one
tree out of the road so that now
the public highway is in a passable
condition.
The unusually heavy fall of enow
during the early part of winter ia
responsible tor much damage to
timber. Hundreds of tree-tops
from twenty to forty feet long have
been blown down and can be seen
lying close to the trunk from which
they were broken, showing con
clusively that the wind had but
little to do with the unusual dam
age. Alders, willows and cotton
wood trees growing along the
creeks were broken off short about
fifteen feet from the ground, and
fir trees from six to twelve inches
through have been bent to the
ground and look as though they
would never straighten up.
"The snow in that part of Crook
county haa gone out early," says
Mr. Summers. "And I would ad
vise those who use the flow from
this section for irrigating purposes
to get busy and not allow much
water to go to waste. This season
is bound to be a short one iudging -
from the looks of things at this
time."
Al Nichols is in charge at the
Mayflower mine. He ia putting the
hotel in order so as to be ready for
M. Scott, who is expected with
his family. Mr. Scott will run the
hotel and open up a stock of mer
chandise. ,
George Winslow and wife are at
the camps. George ia washing
dirt for the gold there is in it in
the good old-fashioned rocker.
Both Summers and Oakman
brought down some fine samples
of coarse gold from the Mayflower.
They are also showing some quick
silver from Lookout.
