Active Contest for Honors
of Leadership Calls
Out Big Vote.

The contest between F. L. Turpin
and SeIden Sturges for the honor OF
commanding George H. Thomas Post,
ensuing year was settled last night by
the election of the first named. The
number of ballots cast was $50.
Commander elect Turpin enlisted in
the Union army in 1864, serving first in
a Pennsylvania infantry regiment. He
re-enlisted in the Twenty first Penn
sylvania Cavalry and served in that
regiment until the close of the war.
He came to California twenty-nine
years ago and is a man of affairs. He
is the proprietor of the Royal House, a
director of the Columbian Bank and
president of the Point Richmond De-
velopment Company. In the work of
raising money for the Thirty seventh
National Encampment of the Grand
Army he was remarkably energetic
and was himself generous contributor
to the fund collected by George H.
Thomas Post. His generosity and
energy attracted the notice of COM
rades and suggested his promotion to
the first place in the post.
OIner O1ncerS CHOSEN last night were.
c. w. Gordon, senior vice commander;
B. F. Hobart, junior vice commander;
c. H. Blinn, quartermaster; H. MEG.
Wilson, surgeon; r. A. Bigelow, chap
lain; A. j. Vining, officer of the day,
and w. r. Parnell, c. E. Wilson and
Phil /. Fisher, trustees.
Several days before the election ef-
forts were made to induce one or the
other of the candidates for commander
to relinquish the fight in order that
complete harmony in the post might
prevail, but the supporters of each
aspirant were confident of success.
Comrade Sturges was promoted to post
commander several months ago, having
been selected in regular order to fill
the vacancy caused by the resignation
of Colonel A. D. Cutler. The fight that
was settled by the election of Mr.. Tur-
pin will have no bearing on the contest
for department commander to succeed
General Shafter.
The department encampment will be
held in Los Angeles next April. Gen
eral A. w. Barrett of this city and Col
onel Rice of Los Angeles are in the
race for leadership in the department.

TAPPING TIMBER TRACTS.

One, by way of Cazsdero, the north
ern terminus Of the North Shore road.
extends north to Fort Ross on the
coast, a distance of eight miles, thence
along the south fork of the Gualala
River to its junction, thence over a di-
vide into the Garcia Valley and then to
Point Arena and up the coast fifty
miles to Mendocino, leaving 112 miles
between the latter port and Eureka,
twenty-five of which are already COW
cred by the branch road Of the Santa
Fe Company. Although this route Is
difficult one, requiring much tunneling
and bridging, to the engineers who
have examined it it is regarded as
practical one, as 1t takes in all OF the
more important towns along the coast
and passes through a very valuable
timber section of Northern California
Although many have contended that
a rail route along the coast proper
could not be constructed, the engineers
who have been working so mysteriously
for several months in that section of
the state have submitted rough plans
for one that can be extended northward
from Cazadero to the Navarro River
valley and then along the lower
ridges. through sparsely populated dis
tricts to a point near the terminus of
the Eureka line.
with the construction OF one Of these
lines and the merging of the North
shore road with its valuable terminal
facilities, the Santa Fe would soon find
itself on a fair footing with the South
ern Pacific Company, in so far as traffic
in the new field is concerned, and
would soon be able by the means Of
branch roads to reach out for the inter-
mediate traffic that would rapidly de-
velop with the advent of new railroad
facilities in that section of the State.
