The Conconully Record announces
that c. d. Kloppenburg is to contest
the election of E. c. Egbert, who won
out for assessor by l vote. Errors in
counting ballots are common, and it is
rare case where recount is made
that the totals correspond with the
original returns. Errors are just as
liable to occur one way as another,
and recount may show Mr.. Egbert to
be further in the lead than a single
vote. 1t is proceeding that neither
side should shirk, and it would be more
satisfactory to the friends of both can
didates if careful examination of the
ballots is made. The office Should go
to the man entitled to it no matter how
small may be his advantage.

ATTENTION SPORTSMEN,

Inc last meeting of the east side
1ame commission will be held at the
halliday hotel, Spokane, on Wendes-
day. December I, at O'Clock D. m.
Inc commission desires that every
county east of the Cascade mountains
snail be represented. Remote coun-
ties sdould, if necessary, appropriate
money from their game fund to send a
representative sportsman to make
known their wishes regarding laws
that.have to do with game and game
hsh.s The counties of Okanogan, Ferry
and Stevens derive a considerable rev.
enue from the sale of licenses and con-
stltute about the only big game dis
trict east of the Cascades. Wise leo.
islation for the conservation and pro-
tection OF their game should appeal to
the eitizensSf these counties, and thew
should send delegates to this meeting
to represent their interests. We in
vite all true sportsmen to be on hand
to help draft measures that will en-
body the best interests of the people
along the line of game and game fish.

AFTER A PRIZE.

Mrs. o. =. Olson, of Republic, was
a visitor in Oroville several days this
week soliciting subscriptions for the
Spokesman-Review Her name was
entered as one of the candidates for
prizes offered by the Spokesman-Re-
view en- votes secured through sub
scription contest, and her name was
published several days before she knew
anything about it, Then several ac-
quaintances voluntarily paid for the
paper and cast their votes in her favor.
The number of votes to her credit
grew so rapidly that she became in
terested and started out on cam
paign, meeting with lattering success.
Mrs. Olson secured a large bunch of
votes while in Oroville, and expresses
her gratitude to those who so gener-
ously responded. According to the
ballots as reported in the Spokesman
Review of Tuesday Mrs. Olson had
14S, ,9lo votes to her credit and she re-
ceived enough more in Oronille to
push the totals we'll up toward 200, 900.
1t looks as though the lady was due to
carry off one of the big prizes, and as
she represents this district this paper
expresses the hope that she may win
the most valuable offered.

SHAK ESPEAREAN TREAT.

fpr the first time in the history of
oro@llle Shakespearean play will be
presented next Monday evening, in
Siglist hall. The company is one sent
out by the Walker Lyceum Bureau, of
Winnipeg, and the performers are art
istso Of acknowledged ability. The play
selected is that delightful comedy,
Twelfth Night" with its charming
Viola, its tangled love scenes, the bib
ulous Sir Toby, and bombastic Sir
Agbecheek, and cannot fail to enter
tain and amuse. So rare are the op-
portpnities to see any of the plays of
the great dramitist, by a first-class
troape, that the hall should be crowded
Mnday mig hit as it was never crowded
be4re. The company carries it's own
scenery and stage effects, which will
add To the pleasure of the performance.
A press notice Of the company says ::
: ST sSiiaxespeare's ideal comedy, "I'welfth
Night" will by presented by Manager
G. 2. Walkers company of English
players, including William Yule and
Violet Eddy. This organization toured
the west last season in Gas You Like
IT," and made such an impression that
their return in the new comedy is sure
to be greeted by crowded house. Mr..
Iule is one of the leading Shakespear-
ian comedians, while Miss Eddy has
won many admirers be her charming
portrayals of the immortal bards dainty
heroines. A massive scenic equipment
has been provided for the comedy,
which will be staged in five acts and
sixteen scenes"

meeting of citizens at Sigrist hall for
this Friday evening for the purpose of
selecting candidates for the several Of
noes that must be filled. This should
oe representative meeting of all the
electors, and those electors should be
animated by the single object of
nominating the best available timber.
All petty local differences should be
put aside for the common good. A
mayor, or councilman, does not repre-
sent one particular part of town, or
any one faction. He should be big
enough and broad enough to represent
the entire town and all the people.
de should not be the puppet of an in
dlvldual or a clique, but 60 into Office
untrammeled and unowned, standing
solely upon his personal merits and
iltness, 1t is to be expected that every
body will be satisfied with the selec-
tlons, no matter upon whom the honor
falls, as it is human nature and an in
dlvidual right to differ in opinion, and
opposition to at least a part of the
ticket, let it be constituted as it NAV.
will develop at the polls. Of course
going into a public meeting is binding
on any one, although if the great pre-
ponderance of sentiment favors the
ticket named the candidates are fairly
entitled to the favorable consideration
OF all those taking part in the pro-
ceedings. Without playing any favor
ite this paper is only interested in see
ing strong, capable, intelligent men
elected at the forthcoming election, so
that the interests of the town may be
safeguarded.

AN ERROR CORRECTED.

In mentioning the steps taken by the
council last week to provide Oroville
with an abundant supply of water, an
error was made in stating the sum to
be paid by the authorities to the pri-
vate water company now operating
plant confined to the portion of the
town on the north side of the railroad
track. The price to be paid is $2775,
instead of $3775, as published. This
is little matter of a thousand dollars,
which reduces the total cost just that
amount. OF course thousand, more
or less, cuts little figure in plant of
the magnitude that the town is to en-
Joy, but figures, where the actual out
lay is well established and understood
in advance, might as well be correct.
When one takes into consideration
what any kind of a system costs, it will
strike the reader who has given the
matter any thought that the price
paid for the local water plant is very
reasonable. 1t is the smallest item of
expense in the proposed new system,
and is worth the price not only because
there are numerous patrons who at
once become contributors to the water
fund, but it removes rival system
from dividing up the business.

PUTTING ON AIRS.

Oroville has developed some symp-
toms of the metropolitan of late, which
contributes to the general gayety of
life, and adds somewhat to the high
price of living, all of which the Amer
lean people stand for with good deal
of equinimity. The symptom" in this
instance takes the form of a nightly
exhibition of moving pictures, that
latter day amusement attraction so
popular in the larger cities that mov-
ing picture shows are more numerous
than saloons, or drug stores, two lines
that to all appearances have the edge
on anything else in the business way
where large populations are central
lied. Not only are mighty exhibitions
given, but two exhibitions in one
night, with a Saturday afternoon mat
inee. If that is not reaching city style,
then city style cannot be aped by the
smaller towns. How long Oroville can
stand the strain, insuring an income
over and above running expenses, is
problem that can only be solved by
time. Probably a short time will do
the solving. And in the meantime the
youngsters of the municipality are
working all kinds of schemes to raise
the price, and judging from the at
tendance are succeeding fairly we'll in
their efforts.

FIXING UP ROAD MATTERS
The County Engineer in Com
mun'cation With the Rail
road Authorities
ANENT N|NE.M|LE CREEK ROAD
Good Prospects of a Bad Piece of
Highway Being Made Passable
to the Travelling Public.

For some time much dissatisfaction
has been expressed over the condition
of the Nine-mile creek road, and prob
ably mere fault has been found with
the commissioner of the district on ac-
count of its seeming neglect than that
individual deserved. The railroad in
fencing up the right-of-way across the
Rlnehart allotment closed the road.
According to the agreements with
owners of allotments where railroads
cross the same, a right of-way for wag-
on road is included wherever the rail-
road interferes with highways in gen.
eral use. In this case Rinehart has
refused right-ofway for only short
distance, forcing the travelling public
to take a roundabout road several
miles out of the way. The following
correspondence between County Sur
veyor McGuin, and Maj. Anderson will
somewhat clarity the situation:
Spokane, Wash, Nov. II, 1910.
Mr.. f. A. MCGUIN,
County Engineer,
Conconully, Wash.
Dear Sir Referring to your letters
of October 10 and November f. in the
matter of the wagon road changes along
our right-of-way, | have recently re-
quested our st. Paul office to take the
Rinehart matter up with the Interior
Department at Washington, ID. c.,
with a view of having that department
take such action as will compel Rine-
hart to live up to the terms of the set
tlement made for the right-o -of-way,
which also includes change of wagon
road. AS soon as / am -ad dvised. in the
matter I will promptly communicate
with you.
AS to other changes from Oroville
south, will at an early date file with
you properly executed waivers from
the various land owners.
Yours respectfully,
ALBERT NJ. ANDERSON,
Right-of-Way Agent.
Conconully, Wash, Nov. II, 1910.
MAI. A. Nj. ANDERSON,
Right-of Way Agent,
Spokane, Wash.
Dear Sir Yours of llth inst, re-
ceived and contents noted. In reply |
beg to say that in view of the evident
delay that will occur in leaving the
matter of the Rinehart right-of- to
be settled ny the Department of the
Interior, the commissioners, who are
now here in session, believe that it
would be no more than right that your
company should reopen the road as
travelled on the right-of- way of your
line until such time as this matter
shall be adjusted by the department.
If you will therefore have the superln-
tendent Of your line advise the section
bess by wire to do this at once you will
relieve our county board in very dis
agreeable situation. Kindly advise me
by wire of your action in this matter.
Yours very truly,
F. A. MCGUIN.

Engineer McGin says;

WILL It COME BACK ?
A New and Important Strike
Said to Have Been Made
on Palmer Mountain.
IN THE GRAND SUMMIT CLAIM
Where Much Free Gold Was
Found and Taken OCT in
Bygone Years.

Nothing has been mentioned on the
subject for long time, yet under the
careful and able personal direction of
E. c. Limbach, mining engineer and
operator of large experience, who has
had the management of the property
for nearly two years, extensive work
OF prospecting nature has been, and
is being, done on the old and widely
known Palmer mountain tunnel claims.
Since that once lauded property closed
down, and got into the black eye class,
a couple of years ago, little has been
said about it, as it has not been the
policy of those in charge to arouse false
hopes among those financially inter-
ested, There was much local contro-
versy over the matter at the time,
those knowing the least regarding the
conditions and situation saying the
most about it. Mistakes were made in
the operations carried on, and methods
employed, no doubt, but there are
those who still believe that there is
something worth going after in the
hill. 1t is evident that those who are
in touch with the company as now or
ganized have not lost all faith, or they
would not be doing the work that has
recently been done.
The extension of the big tunnel has
been abandoned for the present at least,
and exploitation has been confined to
prospecting the ledges on the claims
by sinking shafts. The results of the
along those, lines have
not been made public, but it has been
generally understood they have not
been altogether discouraging. A re-
port reaches this office that strong
ledge of free milling gold bearing
quartz has just been reached on the
Grand Summit, one of the numerous
claims in the big group, near the top
Of Palmer mountain. No one familiar
with mining operations in the past in
that vicinity would feel any surprise if
a rich body of ore should be encoun-
tered on the Grand Summit. In by
gone years some of the richest free
gold ore ever seen in the northwest
was taken in considerable quantities
from this claim, near the surface, and
it was always considered unaccountable
to those acquainted with the circum-
stances that the former management
had not made more exhaustive and
extensive investigation on the Grand
Summit. The extent of the late strike
is not known, but those who have al
ways remained steadfast in their trust
in Palmer mountain certainly hope it
will turn out an important find There
is no desire to create hopes that may
never be realized, yet the experience
of Republic, where paying mines are
being opened up after the camp was
practically abandoned, and the prop

MUCH MOISTURE.

During the past week there has been
heavy fall of rain, extending over
several days. For upward of "a hours
Sunday and Sunday night, there was
an almost steady down pour. Not a
pelting deluge, but steady, gentle
shower, insuring the absorption of the
moisture by the parched earth. 1t is
a matter of regret that portion of
this liberal dispensation could not have
arrived last spring, when it would have
insured crops for this year. But it
comes timely at this season. The
soil is moistened to considerable depth
and with even the customary light
SHOWS of the winter months will put
the ground in excellent condition to
give assurance OF big crops next year.
After the experience of the past sea-
son the farmer can look upon the late
rain as a great blessing.
