WALLOWA VALLEY WATER POWER. Much has been hinted of the .water pawer running Idly away In this val ley. Much more may be hinted or stated. Lumped off into one bold statement of fact, it can be said that there is enough water power here to run all the mills of Eastern Oregon. Taking the river from Enterprise to the lake we have a distance on air line of some seven miles. The lake is approximately 700 feet high er than Enterprise, and the fall will maintain about 100 feet to the mile In many places considerably more. It will suffice the water power in vestor to Unow that Uie fall will be adequate to support water power plants every half mile on the aver age, and that over a dozen water plants could be installed between here and the lake, each using the seaie stream and the same water. Thus enough power could be de rived from thla one stream, ,we ven ture, to run all! the factories of East em Oregon. The first step in this development of water power and such millions of power! 13 to labor for the set tlement of the county; to get actual farmers on the crying soil; to in crease the population, the industries, the- business volume; after which lo cal capital will be evolved to har- i '.r;'T rowers and build trolley e' ery Wallowa county . liver .write to hi3 and her friends, s'ich Mends on the ground, and hus aid the growth of Wallowa's population. NOW FOR A BIG FAIR. T"i3 action of the fair board Thurs day night in enlarging the executive committee to 13 members and giving the country precincts the majority of the members, was Just the right thing. The fair is to be a Wallowa County Fair, no' an Enterprise Fair any more than an Imnaha or Flora Fair, but an exposition of the re sources and products of the whole county, held at Enterprise. It is therefore only meet and proper that the whole county should man age It. ' Enterprise business men stand back of It financially and will s that all premiums are paid in full and expenses met. The location of the fair grounds was also a wise move. The Bank addition is nice level ground that can be transformed Into an ideal site. The city water mains should be extended to the grounds, which should be fenced. Then .with neces sary buildings erected and trees planted the Wallowa County fair grounds would be In a few years sec ond to none in the state. Judge Knowlss' rullnga were upheld by the Supreme court last week in two important suits appealed from -this county. The Judge is adding at each term of court to his reputation as an impartial Jurist, and is also very popular wiLh the men who pay the taxes for his business-like ad ministration of his office. T ta Richardson: "Oregon ia grow ing faster than any other state in the Union, and her cities faster than any other cities of the world." Let us all boost, our respective cit ies, but let ua not forget that all our cities belong to Wallowa county. In ten years, Mr. Eastern Gentle man, you will regret not settling in Wallowa county where values grow- She Kntw Him. "If you refuse me it will kill me," he declared. "How many lives have you?" she asked pitilessly, for she knew some thing of bis previous "affairs" and nat urally reasoned that this form of death was uo novelty to Dim. Rady For tha Next On.
