The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1910-12-02

w. H. Colquhoun, who has been sta
toned at Oroville during the past year,
as superintendent of construction for
the widely known contracting firm of
A. Guthrie & Co., on the Oroville-
Pateros branch, left for Seattle We'd
nesday morning. The commissary de-
partment under his charge was closed
out some days ago, the residue of
stock being taken over by the Oroville
Commercial company. Mr.. Colquhoun
has no knowl edge as to when further
railroad work will be done in this
county.
The "Joshua Simpkins' company is
billed to appear at Sigrist hall next
Monday evening. 1t is heralded as the
big fun show, and promises perform
ance that will appeal to the comedy
loving theatre goers. The company is
a large and strong one and should draw
a full house. 1t comes to Oroville
highly recommended, and promises to
sustain the recommendations
One of the most interested specta
tors in Sigrist hall Monday night was
Tom Stanton, who has made Shakes
peare study, and is capable of pene-
trating the deep subtility of that mas
ter of poetry. Why, if the lady cast
for the part of Viola had been inca
FACILITATED Mr.. Stanton could have filled
the role, probably not quite as be-
witchingly as did Miss Eddy, yet equal
ly as letter perfect as to the lines.
Fred Miller, who was found guilty
of manslaughter on the charge of hav-
ing killed one Dow in a row near Riv-
erside, was sentenced to term of from
6 months to 10 years in the penitenti-
airy. The fatality was a very unfor-
tunate affair, as the killing was wholly
unintentional. In the heat of passion
Miller struck Dow with his fist. Prob
ably such blow would not prove fatal
once in a hundred Thousand time. OF
course the responsibility of death rests
upon Miller, even though the case
might be classed as an accident. The
penalty under the findings of the jury
was as light as could be inflicted, show
ing that the Judge took into considcra-
ton the extenuating circumstances
Word was received here during the
week that Henry Collins, the colored
capitalist of Loomis had gone insane.
This proved to be premature dag
nosis of the case. Collins showed evil
dence of going batty and was taken to
Conconully for examination. 1t seems
that Henry insisted on keeping LOOMS
in the wet column after the people had
voted dry, and the contract was strain
on his holding and mental capacity.
At last accounts Collins had regained
his equilibrium, and as he is natural
money maker when he attends to bust
ness, will no doubt buckle in and soon
accumulate another stake.

tined to be on hand at a m, when
it is believed that calm will make
their work OF floating the bag easy.
Wellman and his hackers announced to-
day that they would make the attempt
at flying al shutdown tonight. but the
westerly wind did not go down, making
the handling OF the balloon impossible.
Hotel men and other hackers Of the

chief engineer. Melvin Hartman. have an
nounced privately that everything is

TAFT DECLINES TO AID MORSE
Will Not Consider Pardon Case Out
of It's Regular Order.
Department. of Justice Must First
Act, as Also in Case of
Banker Walsh.

Beverly. Mass. Oct u.-President Taft
declined to-day 10 consider any applica-
ton to pardon Charles W. Morse the
banker, who is serving time at Atlanta,
until the case has been brought before
him regularly through the Department
OF Justice This statement was drawn
from the President by a visit OF Gilbert
A. A. Peavey, OF Cambridge, whose
daughter was married 10 one OF Mr..
Morse's sons
MI Peavey came 10 the Taft cottage
with letter of introduction from Repre-
sentative Mccall. OF Massachusetts. and
urged Mr.. Taft 10 exercise clemencv in
Mr.. Morses case. The President pointed
out that IL is customary for all pardon
cases to pass first through the Depart
ment OF Justice, and he would be Obliged
10 adhere 20 this rule In the Morse case.
He promised Mr.. Peavey. however. that
he would have an opportunity to be heard
when the case was before him IN the
regular order
Strong pressure has been brought TO
bear on the President recently In behalf
l. W ~
the convicted Chicago banker. Mrs.
Morse has been busy among Senators
and Representatives preparing a petit
ton. and Mr.. Walshs friends have been
equally active
The President has not considered either
case yet, and will not until the papers
are before him. Those who know the
Presidents views in regard TO violations
Of the national banking laws believe.
however, that he will not intervene in
either case at. this time.
The President has decided to spend
two or three days in New York City
before returning to Washington. He will
leave Beverly next Monday afternoon and
will arrive In New York early in the
evening. He will be in the city Tues
day. Wednesday. and perhaps part of
Thursday.
Mr. Taft will have conferences with
some of the Republican leaders in New
York, and may attend the theater once
or twica
The President is going TO Boston to-
morrow to review the Columbus Day pa
rade.
Among other visitors at the Taft cot
tage to-day were Gen. Henry c. Ide
to Spain. and Col Ike Ulman,
boss Of New Haven. Col Ull-
man went over the political situation in
Connecticut with Mr. Taft Things do
not look very bright 10 the colonel in
Connecticut.
1T will be a close fight, but I think
We will win," said he.
A delegation from Texas called at the
Taft cottage with plans and specifca-
tions for reorganization OF the Repub-
lican party in that State. The delega-
ton is out after the scalp of Col. Cecil
Lyon, the Republican boss of Texas, who
was raised to power by Roosevelt The
President has found that an attempted
reorganization Of the party in the South
is usually connected with a lively desire
for a redistribution of office, but he told
this delegation that II they succeeded in
perfecting an organization in Texas su-
perior to the present one he would be
iNady 10 cooperate with them.

ADVERTISING TALKS.
WRITTEN BY WILLIAM c. FREEMAN

is wonderful, when you come
to think of it, what a great in
fluence advertising is welding.
Since advertising has passed
the hysterical stage, and has en-
ploved COMMON SENSE and
COMMON HONESTY as its
chief aids, it finds itself sought
after by manufacturers, mer-
chants, professional men, and
communities.
COMMUNITY ADNERTIS-

thing. Ten years ago everybody
