"Many of the, business men of Los
tine realize . that their future uc
c&3 depends upon moving to 'he
depot and the sentiment ' Is entire
ly changed from what It was a year
ago. Strangers have remarked that;
Lostine was' losing many opportuni
ties by not getting to the depot and
this movement means much toward
the development of Wallowa' coun--y
and the growth of the fourth
own of the county."
WILL PROBABLY LOCATE
IN THIS LOCALITY
Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Woods,' who
Have land holdings In this vicinity,
aoet the brother of Mr. Woods, Jesse
A'oode, at the O. R. & N. station,
Thursday. The latter came from
.Vejton, Oregon, and Jit Is stated
-hat he wlUi locate on a ranch' near
Enterprise. All Enterprise and Wal
owa county welcomes Mr. Woods.
The growth of the 'county seat de
pends upon and Is measured by the
jro.wth of the county's settlement.
.Vhat is eapeclllay "needed hn Wal
Iowa county Is the thousands of ex
perienced farmers who can flndi rich
homes heie, to settle and develop
the fruit growing, small grain grow
ing, and vegetable growing of the
county. In ' this county, as perhaps
In no other county to the state, .the
settler can find almost any climatic
conditions he desires, by selecting
almost any altitude he desires. For
this reason Wallowa county presents
fruit belts, hay belts, small grain
belts and vegetable belts to the pros
pective settler. Come to Wallowa
county, work hard and grow pros
perous. CENSUS WILL SHOW A
GOOD SOLID INCREASE
According to popular report, the
census now being closed In Wallowa
county will show a very material In
crease in settlement, it la freely
predicted that the past tjWO years
will show an increase of double the
i)cpufiatiaa over that of the preced
ing time dating back to the last cen
sus. ' The entire county of Wallowa will
be proud of such) a showing, If, the
returns will show it. However, the
people of Wallowa county will hope
that the growth in settlement during
the next two years will prove fifty
per cent In, excess of that of the
preceding ten yeaTs. This la not a
wild hope by any means, when It
is considered that Wallowa county
has acquired am impetus to. growth
greater than, ever, has had the ad
vantage of further advertising, and
now has a railroad penetrating the
county seat.

WALLOWA KNIGHTS AND LADIES
REPORT EXCELLENT TIME
IN ENTERPRISE.
The Wallowa K. P.'s and their
ladies returned to their homes in
that city Saturday morning, after
spending a gala time to Enterprise
Fi'day and Friday night. The af
cuoon was devoted to handshak
ing, a ball game and a general
good time about the city. The ev
ening was devoted to a banquet,
pitsentlng a beautiful program, at
Fraternal hall.
The Ball Garnet
Wallowa was not going to be out
done in generousdty by the Enter
prise K. P.'s, and retaliated to the
game here with as deep generosity
as the Enterprise K, P.'s displayed
at Wallowa In. the former game.
For Wallowa permitted the Enter
prise experts to take the game by
a score of 9 to 7.
The game was characterized by
enthusiasm. Genuine Enterprise and
Wallowa enthusiasm. The Wallowa
fans shouted their encouragement so
advantageously that U looked as, If
the team might lose Its generosity
In Its baseball enthusiasm, and take
the game from Enterprise., But a
council of war was held by eachi In
dividual Wallowa K. P., and It was
readily seen that it would never do
to come , Into Enterprise, partake of
the K. P. hospitality here, and take
a baseball game ' away from the
the hosts. Consequently v a new
light began to t(wdukle in the Wal
lowa eye, a new chuckle of delight
began to be heard from the Wal
lowa players and ,f ans, and they
kindly handed the game over to En
terprise with Wallowa's compliments.
And, every Enterprise fan1 shouted
for Joy !
The Llnje-Upv
The line-up of both teams was an
invincible front of sturdy baseball
experts experts meaning those who
play the -national' game well. The
Wallowa team was as' follows:
