Of The Year
George D. Harrow, who for the past
ten years has been associate I with F.
Light in conducting Hotel Lake-
view, is negotiating with Mrs. 1'ola
Dewey for her one-third interest in the
property. The deal will te closed prob
at.ly today when abstracts of title have
been prepared. K. M. Miller, cschier
of the Hank ot Lakevlew, owns C'.e re
maining two thirds interest in the
hotel and the consurnmntlon ot this
leal will rnnke Messrs. Miller and
Harrow sole proprietors of the proper
ty. When approached up-in the aubiect
Mr. Harrow stated that he had nothing
to elvo out in regard to future plans
until tne return of Mr. Light, who is
now in San Francisco. However he in
timated that improvements would be
mad-, and it is likely that several al
uratiuisH will bn made in the hostlery.
Perfect weather, large and Jolly
crowd. aumptuoua feed, remarkable
dispatch in pulling off everything for
the comfort and welfare of the viaitora
and no accidents combined to make
Lakevlew Day at High Grade last Sun
day most propitious. It waa pleased
and in many eases surprised, crowd
that camo off the mountain that even
ing. About twenty-five people went from
here Saturday afternoon to attend the
dance that waa given at the "Golden
City" Saturday evening, and Sunday
morning about fifteen went to New
Pine Creek from which place trans
portation was furnirtned to take them
up to the district.
The baibecue on the hill was all and
more than could be expected, if it had
been any better, if such a thing waa
possible, judging by 'he way in which
some partook of the meal, there might
have been some serious cases to end
the day's festivities. A. L. Arnold of
the Spearmint Gold Minea Co. and
Mrs. Arnold are deserving of the ma
jor por ion of credit for tne success
of the celebration, although they were
assisted by other interested parties in
the ir.ii.es. Earl Laytoii waa said to
have charge of barbecuing the meat,
which consisted of two i-heep and a
quarter ot beef, and if he did he has
established a reputation for himself
that will follow him through life.
For the benefit of the visitors, short
ly afteF the barbecue a hand drilling
contest took place on the main street
of H gh tirade between Fred Wright
and Guy Cook, of the Spearmint team,
who won the Bid well drilling contest
Labor dny. The dispatch with which
these men drove a bole in the rock
showed them to be past masters in the
art, thev drilling 26 1-2 mchea in ten
minutes.
The guests were oshered over a por
tion of th ! work that ia i eing prosecut
ed in tne district, and one glance at
developments is convincing that Camp
High Grade ia lastly casting awav her
swaddling clothes.
The Modoo mine that is owned by W.
F. Wrigley. the Spearmint chewing
gum man, is pro ably undergoing the
most development work ot any proper
ty in the cmp. The work ia in charge
ofJ.F. Cutler. The main shaft is
now 100ft. deep and ore that is being
taken out in said to give S20 values,
but ia not being sacked. A shaft house
is almost completed and a steam hoist
has ten installed. Mr. Cutler informed
an Examiner representative that work
would be rvnunuea until at least a
deptn of 1j feet more were attained
and considerable drifting will be aone
to ascertain the future of the prospect
as a gold producer.

The Annual Teacher's institute be
gan its work at the High School build
ing last Wednesday.
The morning session began with
muBic, after which assistant State
School Supt. Carleton presented the
aubiect of history. He conducted a
recitation with the teachers present as
pupils. His work was appreciated and
many valuable ideas were advanced.
Prof. Gardner gave his methods of
teachine arithtne'jj. He tipbasized
the necessity of teaching that which
is practieal in life and impressed upon
the teachers the need of thorough work
in all subjects. After a short recess a
discussioi. of the need of better work in
spelling waa led oy Supt. Willits,
Carleton, Dunton, Oliver and Gardner.
Each gave methods A county contest
among the schools was approved.
After noon Mr. Carleton continued
his work in history in a manner which
benefitted the teachers.
Prof. Gardenr took up the work of
arithmetic in the higher grades, show-
ng how to apply the instruction to
needs of the home and business.
Mr. unver spent thirty minutes on
the teaching of geography, showing
that if teachers will cause tne pupils
to want and like the study, advance
ment is easy. Hft gave a synopsiB of
his method of using newspapers, rail
road and other literature to make the
work effective. His supplementary
work to the cause of study was ap
plauded and recommended to the teach
ers by Supt. Carleton.
The evening session waa held in the
M. E. Church and consisted of some
excellent music, a talk by Prof. Gard
ner on the needs of harmony between
t'e home and the school and in train
ing children to become good citizens.
Mr. Caritun'a talk was on "Our
Schools" and was replete with good to
parems, teachers and the public.
These talks will bear much truit in
creating and muintaimng a proper
school spirit in our town.
After the speaking the teachers and
instructors met with the ladies of the
Civic Improvement Club for the pur
pose of becoming acquainted. A very
social hour whs spent, refreshments
served and all made acnuainted, after
which Mr. Seaver, of Seattle, enter
tained the gathering with some dialect
reading. Hia impersonation of the
Norwegian and Swede was remarkable. !
Dr. Winship gave a short talk which !
was aa all would expect, good. A vote
of thanks v as given to the ladies of
the C. I. C.
Ot vast importance to the early de
velopment of the upper part of Lake
county is the settlement of a Hebrew
colony near Kama Kock as waa an
nounced fn last week's Examiner. The
land filed upon in the Lakeview office
ia located in 27-22 and is about 75
miles almost due north of this place.
This is at the junction of the Southern
Pacific Railroad survey that waa made
through this territory, connecting with
the Oregon Eastern UDon which con
struction work ia now progressing. It
is said that some of the best farmirg
land in the countv is in that region.
Those who made filings here last
week were: Jacub Meyers, William
Roodvas, Frank Schitter. Victor.
Bcrcovitz, David freal and Rabbi J.
M. Goldberg. E. K Post.'of the Ore
gon Land & Immigration Co., made the
locations and i-nrveyed the party to
Lakeview by automobile. The entire
settlement will he made up of Port
land pecple.
Mr. Schsttr who was acting as
spokesman for the party informed the
Examiner tnst twenty-tlv families
would follow this Fall and make filings '
on other lands, and it was likely that
numerous other Portland parties would
settle in tbac vicinity. All the land
was taken under the three year home
stead act and thia year they expect to
let contract for clearing land and
getting it under cultivation. They also
want one half million feet of lumber
for which they will let contracts as
soon as they can get figures on the
same.
At the present time the settlement
will be somewhat remote from trans
portation, but with the building of the
Oregon Eastern will soon have connec
tion with outside points. The fact
that people f'rn. 0mn rcPtropolis
have selpcfpd Lab eonnty for the lo
cation of the first colonization move
ment in the ntate, speaks well for the
productiveness of the soil, which is
bound to oome under cultivation in due
course of time.

President Bailey, of the Northwest
Townsite Co., is taking the lehd in
organizing the bank, which it is ex
pected will open for husinsa on Janu

tend to make the bank a clearinghouse
for any of our enterprise," said Mr.
Bailey in speaking to an Examiner
man. "We are in the land business,
bnd National Banks cannot lend money
on land. We can borrow all the money
we need, when we go borrowing, at 6
per cent, in Philadephia. We believe
good bank there will help us work in
putting three hundred new families
upon the 120,000 acrea of lard that
we are under a contract with the state
of Oregon to irrigate. A bank is great
ly needed at Paisley. Mr. Bailey says
they will be ready to receive subscrip
tions within thirty duys, affr the pa-
pera ire received from Washington.
