Cheering news in brought' from Walla Wulla about the. proposed "elec tric railway from that city into Wal lowa county, by Geo. S. Cinig who 1ih juht returned from there where he nt teinlod th Kraduutiug recital f dnnirhter, Misa .h.yce, tit Wliitman CollejiH Conservatory of Music. Mr. Craig' ja fonvineed the W-nlla Walla ieople mean busitieHo. In un inter ie.w with the Nea Record lie xuid: "I was mneh surprised at the things Iieirg done by Wullu Walla vapitahVt in the mutter of the electric line we have been frequently iinrins about. It can be said with certainty that they have thoroughly imet tigated and sur veyed a route from Walla ' alia to the (irund Ronde river at or near the mouth of the Litle Salmon. People of WhIIu Walla are very nnxioiiH for the road to be continued on to Enter-: prise and I found that they stand ready to assist in a substantial manner in the continuation of the line from the Oruud Ronde river to this city. They already know about the popula tion of the north end of the county, and the fertility of the soil in all parts of the county, and have evidently figured out that besides tapping a big timber belt they can no doubt do a good business in freight and passenger traffic between the north tnd of the county and Enterprise. If the people of Enterprise will show one-half as much enthusiasm in the matter as is shown in Walla Walla we caD expect something to be doing. Much of my information I received on my trip is confidential and I am not at liberty to make it public at this time. I will e&y this much however, that now is the time for ub to get busy." , ' Bees Wintered Well. . 8. T. Daggett of Alder Slope reports that his bee? wintered in fine shape.

Mr. PaugPtt,' who has handled liee- all his life, is saiijjuiiie they will do finely hero. AUer Slops Bitch Company. ' The annual meeting of the Alder Slope Ditch company was held at the oilice of r.

For five innings the big crowd at the Enterprise ball gi minds Sunday after noon saw as pretty playint; as you would see in a bis league. Bilyeu and Haves were masters and both woie pitching lino bull with Bilyeu having a shade the best of it up to the eixtlK inuing. Tlien came the razzle diw.lea. The entire home team except the battery, got a bad case of complicated bone head and butler fingers. Everyone when he got the bull started a game of solitaire, and w hen he finally flung it, fired it just whero he. shouldn't.
