GREAT DAMAGE
BY SEVERE COLD

Dispatches from all over the country
indicate great damage to all crops by
the very severe cold snap Of the past
few days. In South Carolina and
Georgia, In fact all over the entire
cotton belt, the damage to cotton has
been severe, and the farmers have ap-
pealed to the cotton seed oil mills not
to crush any more seed. In some
sections seed cannot be obtained at
any price, and the situation is serious.
Snow and sleet fell in torrents over
Georgia, Tennessee and in portions of
Carolinas, and the cotton that had al
ready come up is totally destroyed.
Throughout this county, however,
while damage cannot be estimated,
the farmers are little more fortunate
in that they did not plant the crop
early, and the most Of it is yet under
ground. Corn and the grain crop Is
said to be injured, but it is believed
that the fruit crop is practically unin.
iured.

The County Convention.

The county convention will meet on
next Monday, after which time it is
thought that the political pot will be-
gin to simmer. Up to the present,
however, there are but few prospec-
tive candidates. This is due largely
no doubt to the fact that there are but
few offices to be filed. Clerk of the
Court Frank w. Shealy has two more
year; Sheriff P. q. Coriey likewise
has two more years; County Superin.
tendent of Education Martin will not
have to run this summer, and Super
visor Langford has two more years.
State Senator Crosson will hold
over for another two years, but the
members OF the House will have to be
elected. So far it is not known If
either of the present representatives
will stand for another term, no def
mite announcements having been
made. It was thought that ex-Sena-
tor Sharpe would make the race,
many friends from all over the county
having urged him to run. but state
ment from him elsewhere In this Issue
sets the matter at rest. Col. ].
Brooks Wingard, it is thought, will
make the race, his friends having ap-
preached him from the different SEQ
,tions OF the county, but no announce
ments have been made.
Judge Of Probate Geo. s.. Drafts
will stand for reelection, as will Coun-
ty Auditor Dent and County Treasur-
er Wingard. There is no opposition
to either of these gentlemen so far.
It is understood that the present
county commissioners, Messrs. James
Oaughman and s. Rufus Smith, will
offer for reelection, but If they are to
haye opposition it has not yet devel-
oped. The same applies to Coroner
B. D. Clark, who will be In the race
to win. ... T.
After next Monday there will likely
be something doing all along the hue;
but, as stated above, there will not be
the usual number in the field this
summer.

and children, were out of town. A
large majority who sought excitement
elsewhere went to Nelson. Others
drove up to Golden, and few scattered
to other points in the surrounding
country. Upward of 100 Orovilleans
aided to swell the crowd at Nelson.
The streets were deserted, and no Sum
day in the history of the place has ever
had such an air of peaceful quietness
Toward evening, after the return of
the mob from Nelson, there were spas
modic explosions of firecrackers, but
there was no exuberancy even in this
mild method of observation. There
were no hilarious exhibitions of liquid
registering, very meagre display of
flags, no decorations, no accidents, no
fires. This year Oroville let other
communities do the celebrating. Next
year the town will take hand in the
fun, and will make the celebration the
best ever.

GOLDEN CELEBRATION.

The 4th of July was celebrated at
Golden in quiet and rational manner,
and the largest crowd that ever col
lected at that place took part and en-
joyed the days proceedings. There
were representatives present from
LOOMS, Oroville, Horse Spring coulee
and all the surrounding country.
While in the nature of picnic there
was a diversified program of sports
among which were matched game of
QUOT pitching, mems, boys and child
ren's saddle horse race, slow race. A
match game of ball between the mar
ried and single men resulted in a crush
ing defeat for the former. A baby
show attracted much interest. The
judges escaped with their hair after
making the awards. The first prize
fell to the offspring of Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Cameron second to the infant of
Judge and Mrs. John r. Frasier third
to the kid of Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. r.
Wood. A dancing platform had been
erected and dancing continued late in
the night. Jay Newell had an ice
cream and confectionery stand on the
ground and did land office business.

grounds after the crowd dispersed and

broke his neck. 1t is stated that the
men had been drinking and that Dow
swiped bottle Of liquor from Miller's
quarters. Miller went after the bottle
and secured it. A quarrel ensued, end
ing in the tragedy. Coroner Fryer in

ceived through the hands of the good
people of Princeton. Not an unpleas-
ant incident, or accident, of any mo-
ment married the day, and those from
Oroville arrived home somewhat
tagged out, but delighted with the
days jaunt and brief sojourn among
their hospitable Canadian neighbors.
NOTES.
Several from Oroville remained over
for the dance in the evening.
At every station the band ripped of
tune or two, much to the admiration
of the natives.
j. A. Brown, formerly editor of the
Keremeos Chronicle, acted as umpire
in the ball game, and gave universal
satisfaction.
The band attracted good deal of fa-
vorable comment, both on account of
the neat appearance of the boys in uni
form, and the excellent music rendered.
E. p. Wheeler, of Conconully, who
owns rich copper property near
Princeton, was at the celebration. He
had spent several weeks at the mine,
and returned with the excursionists.
On the homeward trip the excur-
sionists were entertained with consid-
erabie vocal music, at times somewhat
on color as to tune and chord, yet
withall pleasing variation to the days
entertainment.
Z. p. Gaillas, formerly of Chesaw,
who has valuable coal interests near
Princeton, was joined by his wife and
two daughters, who were on the ex-
cursion train, and they will spend the
summer at the mine.
The excursion train was in charge of
Conductor Fl. G. Dow, with Engineer
ID. McSwain at the throttle, and the
entire crew made the rallroading part
OF the trip as safe, pleasant and COM
Portable as rested within their power.
Robert Stevenson, one of the oldest
pioneers of the northwest, and a gen.
tleman whom it is always a pleasure
to meet, was circulating among the
celebraters. Mr.. Stevenson has a cop
per mine near the town that has all
the ear marks of humdinger.
The ball boys never before put up
such smooth game of ball, or dis
played such team work. The Prince
ton lads could do nothing with Wat
sons twisters, and were moved down
in one, two, three order. The Oroville
team played like professionals from
start to finish.
The writer had the pleasure of meet
ing j. M. Wright, of the Princeton
Star, one of the few old time prints
still in harness. He has waited long
FOR Princeton to loom up as money
making center, and feels that that
time is near at hand. May his share of
it be fortune.
The only accident of the day occurred
during the ball game; when sharp
foul tip struck lady from Hedley in
the chest The lady tainted from the
shock and fright, but it was afterwards
learned that she suffered no i'll effects
from the hurt. 1t was fortunate the
ball did not strike her in the face.
Cal Tilley, of this place, Custom Of
ticer Quigley and Pete Murphy, of
Nighthawk, combined their capital and
buying up all the fire crackers in town
gave the crowd an exhibition of noise
making that is rarely heard or seen in
small place in the United States on
the biggest kind Of 4th of July cele-
bration.
