A BUNCH OF CANDIDATES
Three Gentlemen Willing to
Serve the Public in o.
ficial Capacity.
AND ALL GOOD MEN, TOO
They Are to Submit Their Claims
To the Voters at the Primary
Election in September.

Geo. w. Packwood, of Riverside, was
visitor in Orovile Monday. AS will
be seen by reference to the column of
announcements Mr.. Packwood is can
didate for sheriff on the republican
ticket, subject to the primary election.
Republicans who are looking for re-
publican aspirants for office to support
at the primary election will find in
Mr.. Packwood true member of that
party to be depended upon. But
that is not his only recommendation
deserving the support of the people of
the county without regard to party.
For instance, this summer the railroad
gang inaugurated almost a reign of
terror at Riverside. The deputy sher-
i'll could not suppress the lawless ele-
ment. Packwood's services were Sc
cured and no sooner was he clothed
with authority than peace that sur
passes all understanding fell upon the
erstwhile harried town. This county
wants some intelligence combined with
courage in the Office of sheriff, and Mr..
Packwood has the goods. A large and
powerful man is Mr.. Packwood, and
his mental caliber corresponds with
his physical proportions. Should Mr..
Packwood be the choice of the people
for the office, Okanogan county could
boast of the finest looking and most
efficient sheriff in the state.
A. J. Nickle is out in card announc-
ing his candidacy before the primaries
for the Office of county treasurer, a DO
sition he has SO acceptably filled DUR
ing the past two years. Mr.. Nickle
seeks nomination and election through
the hands of the democratic party, and
while this paper may be "agin" him
politically, it never hesitates to give
worthy official due credit no matter
what may be his political predictions,
and hence takes pleasure in saying that
Mr.. Nickle has made an efficient and
accommodating officer during his in
cumbency. There is one tough thing
for seekers after Office on the demo-
cratic ticket to go up against this fall,
and that is good many democrats are
going to vote for PoindeXter, and in
order to do SO they will have to swear
they are going to vote the republican
ticket And, of course, no democrat
is going to perjure himself by going
back on his oath.
G. ID. kloppenburg will present his
name before the primaries for renom-
nation for the Office of county asses
sor. Here is another efficient man who
is off politically, as he trains with the
democrats, yet he has filled the office
of assessor in such an excellent man.
ner that he is entitled to credit from
all manner OF men regardless of their
political leaning. Mr.. Kloppenbufg
has certainly worked revolution in
the assessors office by bringing order
out of chaos, and getting the books in
such shape that his SUCCESSORS in fu-
ture years can take up the work and
carry it on properly, 1t was stupen-
dous undertaking, but Klop had the
savvy to do it right. No man can be
absolutely perfect in the assessors Of
flee, but Mr.. Kloppenburg has the rolls
as near perfection as they could be
made up by any man,

The final game was between the Oro-
vile and Republic teams, and was
rather a tame affair before the record
crowd of the tournament. 1t was ex-
pected that the Republics would have
a walk away because it was the third
consecutive game for the Orovilles,
they had put up rather ragged game
and many thought they could not hit
their usual pace. But the boys were
sized up wrong. They proved them
selves able to come back, and played
a steady game. 1t is true the Repub-
lies went to pieces, owing 10 the strain
placed upon Foran, their crack pitcher
and the game wound up very much as
a farce, as there was constant changes
of positions. 1t was announced before
the game that the purses would be di-
vided up between Republic and Oro-
Vile, no matter how the game re-
suited The score follows:

lie returned home a poorer and wiser
man from over confidence in his ability
to guess right on the last game. But
no man could be more cheerful
loser, and he surely deserves credit for
his loyalty to his home team. Years
ago Mr.. Keck was a resident of Loom
is. He was among the first to locate
at Republic when the first mining boom
was on, and has stuck to the camp ever
since. He has prospered in the camp,
and also assumed the proportions of an
alderman. His old friends in this com
munity were pleased to meet him, as
his visits are very few and far between.
1t is hard to eradicate the spirit of
chance by preaching or precept and
men will bet when the opportunity
presents itself, and there is even
shadow of show of winning. The
sporting blood was alive Monday and
Tuesday, and a large amount of money
changed hands. There is considerable
satisfaction expressed that few resi-
dents who bet against their home team
dropped their wad.
j. G. Kiehl, short stop of the Repub-
lie team, was severely hurt sliding to
second in the game Tuesday afternoon.
In the evening he tainted twice on the

the right leg below the knee badly
strained, and the young man will be
out of the game the balance of the
season.

ing a daffy bug on base ball He was
indiscreet in letting the clubs talk him
into umpiring the Tuesday morning
game, which ended up in wrangle
in the ninth inning over decision at
the home plate. There may always be
an honest difference of opinion as to
decision in a game of ball, as the spec
tators are watching the game from
many points of view. To those on the
players bench it looked as though the
runner was clearly out, as the umpire
decided, and the player up who re-
fused to bat, and was called out on
strikes made very unsportsmanly eX-
hibition. Any umpire is liable to err,
but he is selected to pass Judgment on
plays and his decision should be final.
