The completion of the new City Hall is an epoch In the history of The Dalles i and Wasco County, marking the ad vancement of this city and the passing from usefulness of a building which is associated with many Important events occurring In. the days when Wasco County extended from the crest of the Cascade Range on the west to the Rocky Mountains on the east. W'asco County was organized by the Territorial Legislature January 11 1854. and was named and well known as the mother of counties. It was re duced to the eastern boundary of Ore gon February 14. IS59. the date of this state's admittance to the Union. W. C, Moody, County Clerk, and Charles W'liltJ. Sheriff, were county officers In 1S59. The old City Hall was the County Courthouse until 1!SS. when the present modern building was erected at Third and Union to meetthe increasing de mands of the county business. In the early sixties it was the only court house between the Columbia and Mis souri Kivers. Early Name Wascopum. Jude Walte was the first Circuit Judge of the Sixth Judicial district, which was changed to the Seventh dis trict in 1S64. Judge Joseph G. W'llssn. father of Kred W. Wilson, the present jMsiricl Attorney, was the first judge of the Seventh Judicial district. Judge Wilson was elected to Congress from this district, but died in the East be fore taking the oath of office. Judge L. XL McArthur. father of C. N. Mc Arthur, prominent politically, was also a Judge In the early days of tMs dis trict. In those days The Dalles was known as W ascopum postoff ice. and the court house was the only large room In the Milage, where all meetings from re ligious to political were held. Walter c. Wallace erected the building, and J. W. Maraen. still residing in this city, assisted in the work. The greater por tion of the lumber came" from the Mosler district. The population of Wascopum was about $00. NEW PROJECT NEAR PASCO Twelve Mile of Ditches to Irrigate I -and In Vicinity of Wahluke. PASCO. Wash.. Jan. 17. (Special.) The first Irrigation project of Importance to be established above Pasco on this side of the Columbia River la to be launched by a company of wealthy Spokane men, and before Fall of the present year 15.000 acres across the river from Hanford will be under Irrigation. Wahluke is the name of the new town which has been platted, and the company to operate the project Is known as the Cnlumhla River Orchards Company. R. W. Wilson is president; A. C. Oleon. vice-president, and F. P. McGulre, secretary-treasurer. The Irrigation plant will cost about (.000. THere will be 12 miles of ditches. Electric Lines to Extend. ALBANY. Or., Jan. 17. (Special.) Al bany's electric street railway system will be extended materially this Summer. The operation of the line from the Southern Pacific depot down through the business section of the city has proved so satis factory that it Is reported several addi tional streets will be covered with tracks during the coming Spring and Summer. According to rumored plans a line will cross the city east and west and a loop line will be constructed out past the rap Idly growing suburbs in the southwestern part of the city. This proposed line will pass a new addition which Is being platted by the Albany Land Company, I In which some of the owners of the street railway are Interested. j - .7 '.

Jan. 17. (Special.) A big power plant Is to be erected at Water loo, on the South Santiam River, six miles southeast- of. Lebanon, to furnish power for the Lebanon paper mills. There has been a rumor for four or five months that the Lebanon Paper Company con templated this step and it was confirmed yesterday when J. B. Lewthwalte filed notices here of appropriations covering the water power of the falls at Walter loo. Lewthwalte Is Interested In the paper mills at Lebanon, as well as those at Oregon City. The Lebanon paper mills use from 600 to 1000 horse-power and the Snntiam canal furnishes only a small portion of the re quired energy. The mills are forced to use big engines to supply power. The proposed power plant will supplant the engines as well as furnish more power than that now furnished. Though the company has yet niado no announce ments, whatever, it is understood that work on the power plant will soon com mence. There is a 14-foot fall m the South Santiam River at Waterloo and the town was located there because of this water Dower. Years ago the late Thomas Kay established a woolen mill there. It burned in 187 and since that time the power from the falls has not been utilized. Lewthwalte filed two appropriations of water from the South Santiam of 200.000 cubic inches each, the two representing a flow of 600.000 cubic feet per minute. He nurnoses to take the wster from the river Just above the falls and plans the construction of two flumes each about 500 feet long. 40 feet wide and 10 feet deep. This proposed improvement will mar the bcautv of the fulls, which are rated among the prettiest In Linn County, but it will furnish a great amount of elec trical energy for manufacturing pur poses. BIT OF OLD WEST REVIVES Copperfleld, Near Baker City, Real Thine in JYontier Line. BAKER CITY. Or.. Jan. 17. (Special.) Rivaling earlier mining days of the great West, when towns of considerable slxe sprang up almost in a nigi. Copper field, located In Baker County, on the Snake River, has established itself almost Instantaneously with a population of sev eral hundred people, and is one or tne liveliest camps to be found today. It is no mining excitement that has made Cop nerfleld. but an extensive payroll from two of the largest commercial enterprises that have ever been built in either Idaho or Or?gon. One is the Oxbow tunnel proj ect, which will change the course of the treacherous Snake River, and In that change sufficient water fall Is obtained to develop thousands of horse power. And the other is the building of what Is known as the Northwestern Railroad, a Harri man line that leaves the Oregon Short Line at Huntington and follows the Snake River to Lewlston. Idaho, thus avoiding mountain hauls and solving the problem of transporting freight on a water level. Several stores, barber shops, butcher shops and hotels have ieen erected within the past six weeks, and the dance halls flourish with more elaboration than dis tinguished that branch of Sumpter's in dustry when she was the queen of mining camps. There is no saloon in Ooppertleld. because Baker County's court refused to grant a license; nevertheless, liquor Is ob tainable from a gallon house which runs night and day. and aids to make the new camp a freo-and-easy place. Owners of the gallon house were fined $1000 a few days ago. which they paid without clos ing their doors or stopping business for an hour. Fights are numerous In the new burg, and when nightfall spreads over Snake River's box canyons foreign ers employed there amuse themselves by fistic combats. An emergency hospital has been erected and It Is common to have It filled to overflowing. Money is free in Copperfleld. nothing less than two bits being used in making change, and the old-time W esterner feels perfectly at home there. WANT THREE COUNTIES Cottage Grove, Drain and IMyrtle Creek AH Desire County Seats. ROSEBURG. Or.. Jan. 17. (Special.) Since the Cottage Grove Commercial Club began advocating the formation of a new county from portions of Lane and Doug las Counties, with Cottage Grove as the county seat, all sections of Douglas Ctounty seem to have caught the division mania. Drain, situated in the northern part of the county, now wants to form a new oounty from the northern section of i r- '-'aT; tL , ejrr . .a .t - ..... ... . o. : 1 w . '..

The Commercial Club of that city has taken up the matter and an ef fort will be made to bring the plan to a materialization. Drain was originally In cluded in the part of the county which Cottage Grove wished to slice from Doug las County, but the citizens of the former place held a mass meeting and most em phatically protested against this. Then Cottage Grove established its prorpective lines further north, intending to leave Drain as It originally was. in Douglas County. Drain got the county division idea from Cottage Grove, and now Intends to try and slice off a piece of old Douglas containing about 17,000.000 worth of property and a population of about 60f). to be used In the formation of a new county. GQilHTY KNOWN BY PUTS BERRIES AND PEACHES THRIVE IN KLICKITAT. James Cofficld Early Makes Larger Fruits Success and Grows First Strawberries. BY JOHN G. HADDOCK. LYLE. Wash., Jan. 17. (Special.) The late James Coffleld came from Pennsylvania to Klickitat County a quarter . of a century ago. He was well supplied with money. He had looked over the fruit -culture in the great Walla Walla Valley, where he was urged to locate, but Klickitat looked good to him. Near the present town of Cliffs he transformed ugly sand dunes Into wind breaks for fruit culture. He spared no means in making develop ment. Lucky for Klickitat that she possessed this pioneer Grange worker and horticulturist. Tempting investments would never allure him to town or city. He loved the mysteries of the soil and in his Klickitat rural home you could always find the man who "did things" farm ing. "Coffleld" peaches as big as large coffee cups, with uniform size, became the delight of traveling men, and he received many orders from them. Cof fleld once related he came to Klickitat with more money than brains. Gen erous with the "horticultural knowledge he possessed, he was one time Jollied to tell why his Alberta peaches grew so large and were so pronouncedly kissed by the blush of heaven. His reply was: "Soli and climate, prune severely, thin carefully, cultivate and Irrigate properly"' Kighteen years ago last Spring Mr. Coffleld brought his fruit wagon to a halt in front of the late Hon. William R. Dunbar's office In Goldendale. He had on the wagon a crate of strawber ries, he said, for exhibition. They were the firsr-berrles known to have ripened In the Northwest at that time. To his surprise, many eager purchasers, ap peared, showering money upon him in prices that to him seemed fabulous. Coffleld afterwards related that the town was evidently "berry hungry" and he was forced to take money he felt he had not earned; but from that time on he increased his strawberry production to an acre, which proved one of the best Investments he ever made in Klickitat. Frank Coffleld, schooled by an Illus trious sire successful in all of his ex periments In horticulture, visited dif ferent portions of Klickitat and . Yakima counties with a view to establishing a commercial orchard and berry location. In the Big Klickitat River country this young hortlculturallst, with ample means and a growing family, acquired a piece of raw land nine miles up the river at Gravel Pit. Mr. Coffleld, the son, today has eight acres of the best varieties of peaches, showing the fertility of the soil after a year's growth, and he has an acre of strawberries and other fruits. Columbus O. Barnes has been dubbed the "Strawberry King" of Klickitat. Mr. Barnes' experience blended with trials of penury, pluck and Industry, have brought opulence. Mr. Barnes was born In Wash ington County, O., in 1S36. At the age of 21 he was in Klickitat, a poor boy and worked at any kind of labor for the late "Uncle" John J. Golden, founder of Goldendale. Later Mr. Barnes married Mr. Golden's eldest daughter. With a growing family the plucky Ohioan, with, outside wages and as renter of the Gol dendale. ranch, managed to get along with many wants unsupplied. "Jim" Cof fleld had told Mr. Barnes and others there was a good field for strawberry growing for the locjl market. Mr. Barnes planted his first experimental patch near Goldendale. The old California pros pector. Golden, his father-in-law, dis credited success, owing to the elevation. The experiment was a success and the berries proved iuch firmer and- oetter shipments than those grown at lower ele vation. Crop failure to him In 15 years 13 unknown. "Barnes" strawberries, like "Coffleld" peaches, have gained more than a local reputation. Next June Mr. Barnes expects to ship strawberries from his own fields by the carload to outside markets. Mr. Barnes estimates tnere are many thousand acres of Idle land on the slopes about Goldendale that can bs made as prolific for strawberry-growing as his fields.

IDAHO BANKS COMBINE Two Boise Institutions Unite and Form Strong Financial Combine. BOISE, Idaho, Jan. 17. (SpeclaD--One of the most important deals In Boise's banking history was consummated when the Bank of Commerce was sold to the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank. This deal makes the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank one of the strongest institutions in the Northwest, combining as It does more than J700.000 In deposite of the Bank of Commerce with more than $S0O,dO0 of the Idaho Trust & 8avlngs Bank, giving the latter house a combined deposit account of more than $1,360,000. As a part of the purchase the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank building was sold ta Captain J. E. Yates. H. N. Coffin. J. vB. Morrow and S. T. N. Smith for $106, 000, while the building fixtures of the Bank of Commerce become the prop erty of the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank at a valuaation of $112,000. There will be little change In the of ficers and directors of the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank owing to the purchase, B. F. Olden continuing as president and N. O. Carpenter as vice-president. These officers, together with the cashiers of the two banks, will remain In active charge of the combined business. Captain J. B. Yates, of the old Bank of Com merce, will become a director In the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank. The capital stock of the bank will re main $200,000. The Bank of Commerce was opened for business In September, 1900 and the Idaho Trust & Savings Bank In April, 1905. SEEK MALHEUR PROJECT New Move on Foot to Hare Govern ment Take Up Important Work. VALE. Or., Jan. 17, (Special.) Just compensation for existing water rights and canals under the Government Malheur irrigation project Is the keynote of the campaign nw being made to secure the signatures of landowners to the petition for the revival of this project. When the proposition first was laid before the land- BACKACHE IS THE SIGH Here Is a Simple Recipe Which Ore gonian Readers Should Mix at Home. Take care of backache. A great many cases of kidney complaint are reported about here; also bladder trou ble av.d rheumatism.

Only vegetable treatment should be administered , and absolutely no strongly alcoholic' medicines, which are harmful to the kidneys and bladder. The, following prescription, while simple, harmless and Inexpensive, is EKED WITH SCRUB OAKS. owners. five years ago, the Government officials would not entertain any proposal to compensate owners of existing Irriga tion systems, and the result was that the ranchers fought the project which, ac cordingly, was abandoned for the time being. The question of compensation, however, does not lie entirely with the Reclama tion Department. If construction is un dartaken the Malheur Water Users' As sociation, the organization of landowners under the proposed ditches, will have something to say regarding the distribu tion of the cost of the work, and the owners of dry land are quite -willing that the wot land owners should benefit for the work they have done. At a meeting of the central committee, which is or ganizing the Water Users' Association, held in Ontario Saturday, it was agreed unanimously that the existing water rights should be protected and a new form of petition for signature by owners of irrigated land was prepared. The chief incentive to signing up for the project for the owners of irrigated land is that the Government scheme provides for an extensive drainage system. Farms now Irrigated lie low, generally along the banks of rivers and creeks, and the irri gation of the higher and bench lands may result In subirrigation of the lower lands, which almost invariably results in, raising alKali to the surface. To prevent this, a system of drainage and preferably or suDSunace or pipe drainage Is neces sary. APPLE MEN UP IN ARMS Hood River and Other Northwestern Growers to Fight Porter Bill. HOOD RIVER, Jan. 17. (Special.) Hood River apple-growers are up In arms against the Porter bill, which has been introduced In Congress and proposes to increase the size of the apple box used by Northwest growers. In addition to the resolution which was recently passed by the local horticultural society pro testing against its adoption, the Oregon delegation In Congress has been form ally asked to work against the measure, and the apple men of Washington have sent J. L. Dumas, owner of the big Po moria apple ranch at Dayton, to the Cap itol city to use his Influence to secure Its defeat. It Is stated that the matter will be taken up here officially by the Hood River Apple-Growers' union, which will communicate with other similar organiza tions in the state asking that they use their utmost efforts to prevent the bill from passing and also for their co-operation in raising funds to send a represen tative of the apple-growers of the state to Congress to work with Mr. Dumas In opposing the measure, which. It Is stated, will mean an annual loss to growers on the Coast of $1.000,0u0. It is said that the apple box now In use, packed and graded according to the methods employed in Oregon and Wash ington, contains over a bushel of apples that are all saleable and as near perfect as it is possible to ship them; and that dealers who are pushing the Porter bill are taking an unjust course to compel the grower to give them more fruit and to take profits which Justly 'belong to the grower. f CHEESE FACTORY REPORTS Fairview Association at Tillamook Makes Good Showing. TILLAMOOK. Or., Jan. 17. (Special.)
