WALLOWA VALLEY
WATER POWER.
Much has been hinted of the .water
power running Idly away In this val
ley. Much more may bo 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 Buffice the water power in
vestor to know that the fall will be
adequate to support water power
plants every half mile on the aver
age, andi that over a dozen water
plants could be ' Installed between
here and the lake, each using the
same stream and the same water.
Thus enough power could be de
rived from this one stream, .we ven
ture, to run all the factories of East
era. Oregon, , i '
The first step to this development
of water power and such millions
of power! is 'to labor for the set
tlement of the county; Jo got 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
ness water powers and build trolley
lines!;' Let every Wallowa i county
believer .write to his andther friends,
get such friends on the ground; and
thus aid1 the growth of, Wallowa's
population.
NOW FOR A BIQ FAIR.
The action of the: fair) board Thurs
day night la enlarging the executive
committee to 15 members and giving
the country precincts the majority
of the members, was just the right
thing. The fnrtjr Is to be a Wallowa
County Fair, no' an Enterprise Fair
any moro thau-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 see
that all p'remlums are paid In full
and expenses met. , .
The location of the fair grounds'
wo also a wise move. The Bank
addition ts nice level ground that
can be transformed Into an Ideal
site, Tbe city water mains should
be extended to the grounds, which
should be feuced. Thn .with neces
sary buildings erected1 and trees
planted the Wallowa County fatr
grounds would be In a few years sec-
oud to none in' Uie state.
Judge Knowlea' rulings were uphald
by the Supreme court last week In
two Important suits appealed from
tht county. The Judge 1 adding at
each term of court to his reputation
as an impartial JurUit, and Is also
veiy popular with the men yiha pay
the taxes for his buAlness-lIke ad
ministration of hla office.
t ta Richardson: "Oregon b grow
ing faster than any other state In
Uia Union, and her cities faster than
y other cities of the world.,,
let us all boost our respective cit
ies, but let us 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 valuwa grow.

that, being1 a bunbmid and father, be
was under obligation not to rixk leav

once removed that objection by set
tling upon the family a comfortable

two men faced each other the sheriff
arrived oo the scene, took them Into

An att.mrney went lo a livery stable
and hired! a team for two or three
hours Huil. at tbe end of that time, lu
a state uf iibsetitraiudctfnesM. left lite
team at another livery stublo. where
It remained eight days. At stable No.
1 there wan no worry about the team.
Tbey knew the attorney was perfectly
good for the pay. Tuey "knew that If
he kept tbe teum a mouth the bill
would be paid promptly on presenta
tion. Tbey presumed thut be knew
what be was about and concluded.lt
was bis business and uot theirs.- At
stable No. 2 there was equal freedom
from anxiety. Tbe attorney came
there, left the team and went away,
saying nothing. They put the horse
Into a stall and "chalked it down" ou
the office slate, knowing him to be a
business man who paid cash. Discov
ery came at last, and the lawyer wuf
presented with two bills, one for eight
days' hire and the other for eight days'
keep. - He paid both bills promptly,
but it cured hiui of bplng Hltseni mind
