The Place to Save Money THE LEADER The Place to Save Money Do You Get Your Money's Worth People are getting tired of it getting tired of being held up they want their money' worth now the gold brick day are orer. Feoile ueed to he willing to smoke cabbage leave in place of Havana and pay good money for it if they got a premium or coupon willing to huy lea and pay twice its worth just to get a dinh free those dayi are over people want their money 'a worth now they want what they pay for value received. The, line of general merchandise we fell offers you your money's worth we don't have to offer you a lot of cheap inducements to hide cheap quality. When you buy a pair of shoes we don't throw in a premium, your money goes into the vain of the shoe. It's the same with our clothing, hats, dry good and groceries. We fell you th genuine article at a reasonable price. THATS ALL THATS ENOUGH. I. MICHEL, Proprietor, Prineville, Oregon Prineville Awakening! allowed the farmers to name their jown terms as to price and time for pavment. We want the set tier in th country to be friendly to i our concern, because we expect to do I business in Oregon for many years. . !

There if chased by the syndicate of Minn esota capitalist there is said to have existed a lingering suspicion that the immense tract of 800,000 acres of fertile on-hard, farm and limber land was passing from the hands of one brand of "conserva tionist" to another. Contrary to expectations the land are being fold so rapidly that new of the movement of real estate ha not bad time to reach the chief city of the state. FraMtiBt Ctt Awaiuaiaf . Prineville appears to have been favorably considered by one crowd ol Minnesota men, who have just c losed a deal for 1000 acres adjoin ing that town. It is announced that the land will be broken up into additions to the town and in Mnall garden tracts, and is consid ered to lend color to the rumors urrent in Portland that Prineville is to be placed in communication with both the Kast and West and the North and South line of rail road now building into Central Oregon. The price paid approxi mated f 200,000. "I can give you no information as to the railroad aituation," said Mr. P.urchard, at the Portland, last night. "It is true that w have just closed with a St. Paul firm for the sale of 1000 acres adjoining Prine ville. It is a! ample water for at least 50,000 acres of crope, and the bench lands have proved successful under dry farming. A syndicate is figuring on taking that land and themselves bringing in the settlers. Wutta-OW? Ro.lt.. "As originally announced, there is such a lot of land in the grant that we will adopt different meth ods for securing settlers. What we want is result, and if any man or set of men can show us that he can handle a tract we are willing to have it done in that way. The contracts, however, will require settlement to 1 actually made. 'Along the line I might say that w have about concluded our arrangement with agents who are to reprffent us in various large citiee. The list w ill be announced from St. Paul in a fi-w days. It also will give out our Oregon rep resentatives. "1 have just returned from a trip through our lands, where I have made arrangements for the materials to be placed in our saying that there is the most remarkable rush on to Central and Kastern Oregon that ever occurred in any state. People are going in from Shaniko by hundreds and from Ontario and Vale in half hundieds. Those who select our lauds will find us ready to soil, our appraiser being now in the field milking classifications. We will lie ready to begin running excursions of homeseekers before many weeks." State Engineer Up for Election A special from Salem says: John II. Lewis, stale engineer, announces his candidacy for election to the position he now holds. When first created the office of state engi neer was filled by appointment bv the governor but the new water code enacted by the late legislature makes the office elective. Mr Lewis was appointed, when the otlice was first created, by Governor (ieorge K. Chamberlain, but is a Republican. He is the only state engineer Oregon ha ever had. It hn been largely through Mr. Lewis efforts that the advanced water laws enacted last winter were adopted. He worked for several session before they were finally enacted by the legislature. Mr. Lewis' home is in Portland whero he was born and raised. The petitions prepared by Mr. Lea is and which he will send out in a few day contain the following statement: "If I am nominated and elected, I will, duriug my term ol otlice, endeavor to carry to a successful completion, as secretary of the .uesiern l olonuation Co. has not only secured the lareest but tln I best space in the exhibit.

The Oregon A of products came out of the same district, and will work under the Hill banner, 'Hit the Oregon trail.' "The Oregoniantan quote me as irrigation projects, and the many water right adjudications before the board of control of which I am president, in addition to the Urge volume of work now before the state engineer's olTice as the result of the laws recently enacted. These laws are in advance of other states, and were enacted largely through my enoris. iney are on trial in ,Ori;oii and will .i..n of yriet value in the state's development, if made a fucress throufh consistent and pror administra tion." I Wallowa Woolgrowers r Holding Product A dispatch from Wallowa a j that two thirds of the wool clip of Wallowa County is in th bands of the grower today. It amounts to over 1,000,000 Hunds of the , finVst wool in the I'nited States. I Half that amount ha been sold i already a! price ranging from It ! cent to IT cents. Another wool ; sale will be held Tuesday but unless ! much better prices are bid, oi ly j a small percentage of the wool now in the warehouse will change ; hands. Most of the growers who sold are those who know their wool is of an j inferior grade and considered it policy to sell at the first opportu . nily, but the list also includes son.e oi uie iiest wool in this county, grown by experienced woclmen who have carefully studied the market and belive that wool has reached its highest figure for the year. Others who studied the market just as carefully and whose expe rience and reputation for successful dealings are just as great, mantain that the market conditions point to a much higher price; that the supply of good wool is smaller than in former years, while the demand is greater; and that the first bids !eing to low is an attempt on the part of the wool buyers to scare the growers into a lower figure. Those who keep to this latter view will hold their wool for a figure around '20 cents per pound and if such a figure is not bid at Tuesday's saie, will consign their wool to commission merchants in the great wool manufacturing centers where it wilt be held until the demand brings the price up to that figure or the market conditioi s convince them that a lower fuure must be accepted. In the warehouse at this place is near i .i.OOO pounds of wool v,t .litiilg for a buyer. Kntirprife has the bulk of the wool this year and while sales have been the greatest there, fully 500,000 pounds remains for sale in that warehouse, while at Joseph the amount of un sold wool is fully -100,000 pound.
