the people of Lake County are well able

dence that will lead to the apprehension
of a man who killed sheep far out on
the range. It would be folly for an of
ficer to start out on the range to bunt
for a desperado whom be noes
not know, and all they can do is to
gather such evidence as they can get
and await development.

Mr. West y that Lake county eeero
to bo very prosperous, notwithstanding
many cattle were not sold last fall be
cause of low price. The recent rains,
while they have destroyed some hay,
have done an immense amount of good
in improving pasturage.
Cigar Factory for Lakevlew.
Mr. August Urockmann, the gentle
man who was here a few weeks ago
looking for a location to stnrt a
cigar factory. Is on his road to Lake
view now. He started on the 22d,
and will arrive here this week. He
has leased the brick restaurant
building where he will manufacture
flue cigars. He is highly recommend
ed, and has sufficient means to carry
on an Independent business. Mr.
lirockmann traveled all over North
ern California and Southern Oregon
and found no better location than
Lakevlew.
Lakevlew needs cigar factory,
and several other Institutions and It
Is likely that others, suchasabakery
and a steam laundry, will be estaln
lished here before long.
Tbe Benefit Entertainment.
The Cemetcrv Committee are to bo !
congratulated unon their successful
entertainment last Friday evening,
Tho affair was pronounced bj all to
le the best local performance of tho
season. Every number ou tho pro
gram was cuchored euthusjastlcnlly,
which showed that they were appre
ciated. That it was a tlnaucial suc
cess, tho receipts will prove. There
were no expenses, ns the advertising,
hall rent and assistance was all free
ly donated, and the $54.25 taken In
was clear.

a few duysaudtook a vacation from
strenuous newspaper life.
TWO HO RE
RESERVES

The government engineer have
found J5.X000 acre of arid land In
Harney county nloiig Silver creek
that can U irrigated from ntornge
reservoir. Temporary withdrn wnla
have lerj made except for home
tend. AIo reservoir Kite have
been withdrawn from all loom of
entry. The former withdrawal,
that net anlde.for reclamation pur
poses, U In the vicinity of tpn22to25,
South, and range 23 to 29, Eaut.
The land withdrawn from all
forms of entry, which are for reser

2(5.
The engineer that have, been
working In Klamath, county" have
found more land Runceptible p Irri
gation, and accordingly an addition
al withdrawal haa lnen ordered.
ltvwill'le remembered thAt the
first withdrawal in Klamath of
which The Examiner made mention
week before last, .wai from all f,orm
of entry. This was for reservoir
sites. Xow comes the withdrawal
of 400.000 acres from nil save home-

Klamath river. .. ..
The Harney county withdrawal
extends south within about 75 rallea
north-east of Lakeview. in the vicin
ity of Mule eprings.
Packers' Striks in Chicago.
That the consumers bear the bluVit
of the exi?nse of a strike is made
plain by flgnres 4j4 the recent
Chicago .packers'' strike. The great
loss Involved Is given as, loss in
wages of $50,000 men idle $L250,000.
This loss Is born by. the poor man.
The loss sustained by the packing
houses is estimated at $7,000,000.
This seems to be much greater than
the loss of the working man, .biSt
while the worklngman's loss Is much?
smaller, It can never be regained by
him, tho packers Iohs will le more
than made up to biru, and how
much more will never In? known by
none but himself. The consumer
will lie required to pay an advance
of 5 cents a poGnd more for meat?
until the packer Is fully satisfied he
has been, fully reimbursed for the
loss.
The Strike was submitted to ar-
bltration nud hopes were entertain
ed for an early settlement of the
trouble. However, when 85,000 men
returned for work, most of them
were refused. This condltlou of af-
! fairs was reported to tho strlckers
headquarters, and the strike was at
! once reopened and appears to be
worse than ever.

The news of tho marriage of Miss
Jennie Maxwell to Mr. A. 1. Parker
