Rush of Oil Locators to Malheur
County Oil Struck In Sand Hoi
low Urand Ball on New Year's
Eve.
Valo, Or., Jan. 3. The New Yoar
In Vale opened auspiciously with a
ball at the now courthouso, and tho
town full of strangers, mostly oil lo
cators. As a consequence, the conn-
iy viuik anu ins uepuues are snowen
under with oil locations.
Not ono location was relinquished
or any attempt at Jumping, recorded,
A severe snow storm erected the
oil locators and many laughable In1
stances of locators getting lost are
reportoti, However, the oil gang
seemingly got their own property and
no ricks aro registered.

to tho lighting point, valo will send
down three ex-members of the legis
lature fully equipped to do battle.
Mossrs. Hope, Editor McCulloch and
Smith, of the firm of Smith Mercan
tile Company. That they mean fight
is not to be questioned. Petitions
against the removal of the county
seat have and are being circulated in
every nook of Malheur and they are
being generously signed, remonstrat
ing against the removal of the county
seat from Vale and a fight is on that
will try tho metal of both sides.
Ono thing Is vers evident. Valo
now has a courthouso that for com
modity, beauty -and solidity cannot bo
uc.-u in any county in the State or
Oregon. The court room alone' has
more floor spaco that all of Baker
county's official building. It is well
built, well heated and presents a last
ing monument to tho inhabitants of
Malheur county for their, public spirt.
edness, as "the whole structure was
built by .public subscription ; without
ono cent of expenso to the taxpayers.
Thomas Barton, one of the county
commissioners, whoso pet object has
been to build the courthouse, has
certainly shown what can be done by
a determined man. Ho has provided
courthouse that will last Malheur
county for ages and also made h, coun-'
ty structure that for beauty and work
manship has no superior In the state.
Fireproof vaults and lofty -1 ceilings,
with solid workmanship and great
floor space, with plenty of light.
inarkB the structure of Vale's court
house, the walls being built of native
stone. It .certainly presents a hand
some appearance. To say that the
first ball was a success hardly suffices
it. Malheur county, from the "cow"
lung to the festive rancher, from the
remotest part of tho count.y put iu
ar. appearance and the greatest ball
in the -history '6f Malheur took place
in the new courthouse, as a dedica
tion, one and all voted It a 'beauty,
and are ready to swear that Vale now
has tho handsomest courthouse in the
state outside of Portland or Marion
county. .
The now railroad, which by the way
Is now sure of success, by way of
Nyssa, has also caused many of On
tario's citizens to buy real estate,
the price of which Is now very elas
tic. Rumor reports Representative E. H
Test as having got a 40-acre plat
near tho town of Nyssa. Bo this as It
may, Malheur county Is evidently on
tho eve of prosperity. What with
sovoral canals for Irrigation, new rail
loads, oil developments, and a great
number of Immigrants buying farms.
the country around Vale will take on
new life. Plenty of wealth stands
ready to back the enterprise and we
confidentially look for the population
of Malheur to double within the next
two years.
