I. MICHEL, Proprietor, Prineville, Oregon
Club Condemns
Misrepresentation
At a meeting of the Prineville Com
mercial Club beU last month, resolu
tion was drawn up and adopted con
demning certain misleading advertise
ment that were appearing in the Port
land papere. This resolution was for
warded to the Bend Board of Trade and
was approved by that body. It was
also indorsed and ratified by the Laid-
law Development League, the Redmond
Board of Trade, and on January 23 was
approved and adopted by the Madras
Board of Trade. The resolution reads :
Whereas, The attention of this com
mercial body has been called to certain
advertisements appearing in the Portland
newspapers, and illustrated pamphlets
and circulars that hare been and now
are being circulated and distributed
broadcast oyer the State of Oregon, con
cerning alleged real estate investments
within Crook County, and
Whereas, It is the opinion of this com
mercial organisation, and we believe it is
the opinion of every loyal citisen of Crook
County, that said advertisements, pamph
lets and circulars contain matter and
lustrations grossly exaggerating and mis
representing the enterprises, investments
and schemes sought to be promoted and
are grossly misleading to the public not
acquainted with the facts, and
Whereas, The exploitation of the re
sources of Central Oregon and Crook
county do not need to be exaggerated or
misrepresented in order to encourage
settlement and development, therefore, be it
Resolved, by the Prineville Commercial
Club, that, while we purpose to encourage
and approve at all times the proper and
legitimate exploitation and advertisement
of the agricultural, commercial and other
resources of Central Oregon and of Crook
county, and shall always encourage honest
and bona fide settlement and development
and promote the building of railroads and
transportation facilities, we most heartily
condemn the practice ot non-resident real
estate speculators for publishing mislead
ing advertisements and circulating
pamphlets and circulars containing gross
misrepresentations and fake photographs
for the purpose of unloading upon the un
informed public worthless real estate and
wildcat townsites, as a serious menace to
honest settlement and investment and as
threatening the integrity of the citizenship
of Crook county.
Be it further resolved that we invite the
most careful scrutiny and personal investi
gation by prospective settlers and investors
before investing any money in Crook
county real estate, and that a copy of
these resolutions be furnished the press
for publication.
Many are Promoted.
Forest Supervisor A. S. Ireland an
nounces that many of the men in the

Birthday Party.
Mrs. H. F. Belknap, assisted by Mrs.
C. L Winnek, entertained last Friday
evening in honor of the twentieth birtfi
day of her eldest son, Horace. There
were about twenty young people pres
ent, including his high school class and
teachers.
During the evening musical selections
were given by Miss Conway, Miss Edna
Kstes, Misa Gertrude Hodges and Ran
dolph Ketch urn. There were also some
very amusing nut contests and prizes
awarded. The partner for these were
found by the gentlemen answering
want ads held by the young ladies.
A very dainty lunch cf marshmallow
puiding, with whipped cream and nuts,
cake and punch, was then served. In
the cake was a ring, a dime and a penny,
which were drawn by Wilford Belknap,
Irene Barnes and Miss Parrott, respe:t
ively. The ring was for the one who
will be married first, the dime for the
one who wants to marry the worst and
the penny for the one who will not be
married at all. '
Miss Parrott then read the palms of
all those present which caused a great
deal of merriment, after which the
guests departed, extending to Mr.
Horace their best wishes for many
happy birthdays, and declaring them
selves to have' had a most enjoyable
time.

short musical program was rendered
Those present are very much in
terested in this work and hope to make
the annual alumni banquet the most
important event ol the year.
The president requests that all mem
bera of the alumni meet at her home
on April 25.
LAIDLAW
on the Deschutes
Editor Journal Over and over
again newcomers to Central Oregon
seeking homes and buHlnesu chunces,
mention the fact that they want to
get "right down In the Deschutes
Valley on the Deschutes itself,"
owing to extensive advertising
which this country has been getting
lately, In which the expression "The
Deschutes Valley" has been used
freely, inquirers get the Idea that
there is a broad and fertile valley
with the mighty Deschutes flowing
smoothly and majestically in Its
midst. When it Is mentioned that
for the greater part of its length the
great rushing river a river with
more power In It than Niagra flows,
or rather seethes and bolls through
a rocky canon with precipitous sides,
considerable disappointment is the
result. There are, however, a few
places where a fertile valley is found
on either side of the river, and where
such places are, there the land is
wonderfully rich and productive, and
conditions are so exceptionally fav
orable that when once found, the
home seeker always wants to stay.
One such spot there Is recently vis
ited by the writer, a spot that will
forever leave a pleasurable impres
sion upon the mind. There may lie
other places just as good, or ven
lietter, both on the Deschutes, and
along the banks of some It trlbuta.
ries, such as the Ochoco, or Crooked
River, but the little community of
Laldlaw, the only town of any size
on the west bank of the Deschutes,
must appeal to the home-builder as
an Ideal spot for a town, tor a home
and for good prospects of develo
mcnt from all points.
I.nidhiw baa at present only a few
hundred ieopIe, has two good gen
eral stores, a poetoltlce, a bank, a
newspaper, meat market, telephone
exchange, two livery burns, a hotel,
a restaurant, and a few offices and
residences. Just in fact the nucleus
of a little town, that with right
judgment and enterprise could rise to
be something better and greater, or
with bad management and pessi
mism could easily vanish and be
known no more. Such Is the spirit,
however, of the residents and the De
velopment league, that Is the Board
ot Trade and the Commercial Club
combined of the town, that there
can no longer be any doubt aa to
which way the scales are going,
when once the visitor has spent a
few days there. m
A town to have real and permanent
growth, must have the sustaining
and surrounding country. Take our
own home town for example.
Prineville owes its stability and
wealth to the tact that the rich and
fertile valleys of Ochoco, Crooked
River, and McKay Creek, produce In
such measure that there are few val
leys In the northwest can compare
with them. So with Laldlaw.
Around the town are thousands of
acres watered by the Columbia Irri
gation Company a company that
has recently had a great deal of
financial difficulty, but which recent
affairs seem to show are about to be
solved tothe benefit of nil coucerned.
Thousands of acres are also covered
by such other irrigation projects as
the Squaw Creek Irrigation Coru
pany.ThreeCreek and other systems.
As to the quality of the lands, it Is
sufficient to mention that one man
raised f 2000 worth of hay off about
GO acres this past year. All kinds ol
grain' clover and timothy, roots
and garden truck pf every descrip
tion are among the most successful
crops, while it Is believed by a great
many that alfalfa, a crop that np to
the present has not proven very suc
cessful in this section will In the near
future, when handled by experts,
prove a very valuable crops
Just north of town, lower down
on the river, a Seattle concern has
purchased or contracted for about
1000 acres of land with a three-mile
frontage on the river, together with
two fulls with almost Inestimable
amount of power now running un
harnessed. They propose to go
ahead and plat a townslte to join
the present one of Laldlaw, and cut
their holdings up into orchard tracts
which they believe as do -many
others, will be eminently successful
in this, the "irrigated garden spot of
Central Oregon", as the residents de
light to style it, a title which seems
about to be proven.
At the time of the writer's visit,
Chinook had been very busy and
everything was well, slightly
muddy, even for webfoot Oregonlans.
Mud and water mixed, In the pro
portion of two of water to one of
mud covered up to the top of over

the proportion was two of mud to
