DEATH OF FRANK HORRIGAN.

Frank, the eldest son of Mr.. and
Mrs. M. Horrigan, living a few miles
west of Oroville, near Wehesyille, died
in this city Monday morning at oc'k,
after a brief illness. Young Horrigan
had been ailing for several days, but
was able to be up and around, and the
family had no idea that his condition
was serious. Becoming worse the young
man was brought down to Oroville for
medical treatment Saturday. At that
time the attending physician gave lit
tie hopes for his recovery. The cause
of death was malady in the nature OF
typhoid fever. The deceased was I6
years and months old, and grew up
from infancy on his parents homestead.
He was a bright youth, of excellent
character and habits. His untimely
death is sad, sad blow to the family,
and they have the heartfelt sympathy
of large circle of friends and acquaint-
ances. The funeral took place We'd
nesday afternoon from the Catholic
church, and was one of the largest at
tended funerals ever held in Oroville.

PLENTY OF CANDIDATES

Shocking as it may seem the life had
hardly departed from the body of Judge
Taylor before there was a rush of as
pirants for the judgship to occupy his
shoes. 1t is said, whether true or not.
that one individual left for the outside
as soon as the judge was taken sick,
anticipating fatal termination, and
awaited an announcement of death to
make declaration of candidacy. This
may be wholly groundless, and let us
all trust it is, but such a report is un-
doubtedly in circulation. There was
one important reason for this unseemly
haste that is a good and sufficient ex-
cuse for it. The last day for filing dec
larations of candidacy at Olympia was
last Saturday, and in order that va
cancy could be filled by an appeal to
the voters at the primaries it was alb
solutely necessary to rush the applica-
tion, and they were sent in by wire.
There is no lack of candidates for the
voter to chose from at the primaries,
as the following names will be on the
ballots: Alvin w. Barry, r. z. Hos
kyn, William G. Brown, G. p. Bennett,
f. G. Ward, E. X. Pendergast, E. Fitz-
gerald and Claude +. Burton.

A BUNCH OF CANDIDATES.

John f.. Reese, of Oroville is among
the numerous candidates for the legis-
lature whose names will appear on the
ballots at the primaries. Mr.. Reese
announces his platform in card else
where in this issue, and the same is
one that no one can find fault with.
He claims to be q republican, declares
he is not an insurgent, yet one would
suspicion that he favored that demo-
crat, Poindexter.
f. X. Pendergast announces in anoth-
er column that he is candidate for
the Office of superior Judge for the ju-
dicial district composed of Ferry and
Okanogan counties on the nom partisan
judiciary ticket, to be voted at the pri-
maries. There is no question as to
Mr.. Pendergast's legal qualifications
for this important office, from an edu-
cational, training and experience point
of view.
K. i. Pickin is out before the pri-
maries as a candidate for the office of
commissioner for the Third district.
Mr. Pickin has filed the Office by ap-
pointment during the past few months,
and he has proved himself to be an ac-
tive, painstaking and efficient officer.
He takes personal interest and pride
in doing his duty in business-like
manner, course he will continue to
pursue if elected.
Wilson G. Gresham, of Conconully,
announces himself as candidate for
the office of prosecuting attorney be-
fore the primaries. Mr.. Gresham is a
republican. He is a young gentleman
with a clean record and reputation,
and lawyer of ability and experience.
Should he receive the nomination and
be elected the office of prosecuting at
torney would be we'll looked after.
w. b. Reilly, the old timer of Ellie
meham mountain, will be before the
primaries on the democratic ticket as
a candidate for county treasurer. If
there is any one member of the demo-
cratic party more entitled to the conf
dence and good will of the people than
another in this county it is this same
Mr.. Reilly. He is eminently qualified
for the office by years of clerical ex
perience, is a man in whom the most
implicit reliance can be placed, and
withal one of the most likeable gentle
men in the north part of the county.

OVER FROM OLYMPIA.

Hon. Thos. A. Parish, member of
the Washington State Board of Tax
Commissioners, with headquarters at
Olympia, spent Sunday in Oroville on
his way home from business trip to
Conconully and other points in the
county. A keen, bright, intelligent
gentleman is Mr.. Parish, and valu-
able member of an important branch
of the state administration. Mr.. Par
ish is in a position where he has much
travelling to do, and comes in direct
touch with all classes of people. He
is republican of the old school, which
means a man who believes in the prin-
ciples and traditions of the party,
whose loyalty is not merely skin deep,
and he endorses the admirable admin
istration of President Taft. He states
that outside of King county Judge
Burke practically has no following,
and that if the party would concentrate
on John l.. Wilson. he would be nom
mated hands down. He makes this
declaration with no unkind feeling to-
ward Judge Burke and other republi-
can candidates for the position, but as
a conclusion reached after travelling
over the state, close observation and
conversation with people IN all walks
of life.

eh' attention in the past, which has
oeeh surplanted by intelligent care and
attention under the present lease. no
orchard could look to be in a more
houflShing state, and certainly could
not be a more fruitful producer. Off
Vi one tree alone Mr.. Bowerman picked
TWO ton of apples this month. and there
are others that look as tbouub tbev
would yield an equal amount. The fruit
consists of apples and pears. and Smith
selected good variety, there being the
Blue Parmain, Spitzenburg, Yellow
belliiower, Twenty-ounce Pipin and
other well-known commercial apples.
With such an illustration of what the
soil will produce under water it seems
strange indeed that more attention has
not been paid to irrigation in this local
10y. The soil is just the same as all
the vacant and barren lands around
Osoyoos lake and the Okanogan river.
Wherever an attempt has been made to
apply water the same results have fol-
lowed. The Bowerman brothers are
demonstrating it on lands adjoining the
Smith ranch to the north, and so sue
cessfully that their efforts and accom-
panying results are left for a future ar
ticle, and the East Oroville Orchard
company is preparing to repeat the
demonstration on lands adjoining the
Smith allotment to the south Nature
has here laid the foundation for an
Eden, left to the ingenuity and industry
OF man to make the best of. At last
steps are being taken to reclaim large
tracts. 1t will require the passage of
several years before the fruitage of
that land will be a source of wealth to
the owners, and vigorous vegetation
makes the section an oasis of attractive
beauty, but the people see the begin
ming, time slips by rapidly, and before
one hardly realizes it the orchard with
its golden burden will cover the acres
now bare and barren.

A CHOICE PIECE OF LAND.

In accordance with a practice of the
Indian department, which has made a
number of such sales in this county
during the past few years, the Jeremi-
ah Burbur allotment, of 50 acres, vas
sold to the highest bidder August |,
and Geo. H. Ellis and Jas. +. Forde
were the lucky bidders. The word
''lucky" can be used in it's broadest
sense, for this is undoubtedly the most
desirable tract of land for irrigation
and orchard purposes in the whole Ok
anogan valley, barring none. Older
residents of Oroville are familiar with
it, as many have looked upon the tract
with covetous eyes in past years. 1t

of Osoyoos lake, just above town, and

THE LATE JUDGE TAYLOR.

"A brief mention was made in the last
issue OF the GAZETTE of the death of
Judge Edward w. Taylor, which oc-
CURED at his home in Conconully last
FRIDAY morning, after brief illness.
Inc immediate cause of death was ty-
phoid fever.
Judge Taylor was the embodiment
OF cheerfulness under the most adverse
circumstances. For many years the
Judge was sufferer from locomotor
ataxia, which left him almost helpless,
although his physical condition did not
affect his mental capacity, and at all
times his brain was bright and active.
he treated his disabilities lightly, and
MS perpetual brightness and cheerful
ness were lesson that might be taken
TO heart by those enjoying robust
health who fret and complain over
petty Inconvenience and dsappoint-
ments in life.
Judge Taylor was native of Illinois,
and some So years of age. He came
to Washington territory from Nevada
in the early sos, locating in Tacoma,
where he speedily built up remun-
erative practice. He took an active
part in politics, and served term in
the legislature from Pierce county,
becoming leader and dominating fac
tor in that body. He was active and
aggressive in politics, skillful organ
izer and welded much power and in
fiuence in the community in which he
lived.
Some dozen years ago appeared the
first symptom of the terrible malady
that incapacitated him for active life,
and which so reduced his vitality as to
leave him an easy victim to TYPHOID.
When the ailment from which he was
to suffer for so long time first devel-
oped his physicians declared he could
not survive yeor. Being a man of
indomitable will power he did not
propose to give up without struggle
Although in no condition to travel he
came over into Okanogan county and
tried roughing it. He felt better here
than on the coast, and decided to locate
in the county. He eventually formed
partnership with the late MI. REILLY,
which continued until some four years
ago, at the time of that gentleman S
death. Judge Taylor remained in
Loomis practicing law until the fall of
1908, when in a memorable contest he
was elected Judge for the judicial dis
trict of Okanogan and Ferry counties.
During his his short term of service
Judge Taylor showed himself to be a
man high honor and integrity as we'll
as possessing exceptional ability. His
record on the bench is a most credit
able one, and gave general satisfaction.
He leaves wife, three children and a
multitude of friends to mourn his loss.
The remains were shipped to Taco
ma for interment, and were accom-.
panied by w. f.. Grant, of Loomis, and
w. G. Gresham, Conconully, as repre-
senting the bar of the county, and Mrs.
Taylor and two children.

Burr NJ, son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. p.
Dexter, living near Loomis, died at an
early hour Wednesday morning, after
an illness of only few days, the cause
of death being motor paralysis. Young
Dexter attended the dance in this
place on Tuesday night of last week.
Riding from Loomis to Nighthawk he
was caught in shower. Waiting for
the train at Nighthawk in damp clothes
he had slight chill. That did not de-
ter him from coming to Oroville. He
was complaining of feeling badly upon
his return home, but his condition did
not secome serious until day or two
before death. DR.. Schwabland did not
see the patient until Tuesday. At that
time his entire body was paralyzed, land
death only a question of few hours.
Burr Dexter was born in Warren
county, Penn, June, "a, 1886, and hence
had passed his oath birthday He came
to Okanogan county with his parents
in 1890, and grew up to manhood near
LoOmis. He was member of the
Woodmen of the World, the Circle and
the Eagles. He was always robust
child and young man, and his sudden
demise was terrible blow to the fam
lily and shock to the community. The
funeral took place at the Loomis ceme-
terry Thursday aftarnOon

TO WORK THE PINNACLE.

Frank Grogan sends word that he
has had instructions from those inter-
ested in the property to start up work
on the Pinnacle mine, located near
Loomis, and that he will begin opera
tions at an early date. Mr.. Grogan has
had charge of development on the Pin
nacle before, and made creditable pro-
gress, taking out quantity of high
grade gold bearing quartz while carry
ing on the work.
From the appearance of the ledges,
and the character of the ore that has
been extracted from the under ground
workings in past years, it would seem
that if there is holding of a mineral
nature in the vicinity of Loomis that
should make mine of great value,
that holding is surely the Pinnacle.
The property has long history of ups
and downs, and at times during the
many years it has been worked, off and
on, has produced gold bearing quartz
of marvellous richness. The surface
groupings, when discovered years ago,
were sprinkled with free gold. The
original discoverers went on the out
side with large quantity of these
rich samples, but never returned. The
claims were left in charge of Jas. o.
Connell, an old prospector and very
eccentric character, who became known
as "Pinnacle Jimmie" Eventually
O'Connell bonded the property to par
ties from British Columbia. He would
not grant an extension of time, and
the parties threw up the bond. That
was the last extensive development
done upon the claims. Nearly ten
years ago O'Connell was killed in a
brawl at Loomis. Relatives appeared
on the scene and for long time the
property was tied up. For the past de-
cade work has been carried on spas
medically, and Intellectually so far as
reaching satisfactory results.
The main ledge on the Pinnacle, and
there are several, is one of the finest
leads in place that can be found in the
country. AS has been stated above,
pockets have been struck where the
quartz carried fabulous values, but SO
far no extended pay shoot has been en-

level for that purpose. The soil is of
that character that is the very best
for the growing of trees and develop
ment of a higher grade of fruit. 1t
is located in the midst of the large tract
that the East Oroville Orchards COM
pany now has under system of fumes
and bitches. 1t is the intention of
Messrs. Forde and Ellis to sell off
about four five acre tracts and develop
the balance next spring. 1t is land
that can be easily reclaimed, and it is
fortunate for the town that it has fall

do it right, and certainly will proceed
to do it right.

countered. The trouble is there has
never been sufficient capital on hand
to work the claims Systematically and
extensively. Mvch of the work has
been OF perfunctory nature, adding
little to the value of the mine. 1t is
sincerely to be hoped that when work
starts up again it will be with the one
object of reaching the ledge at depth,
and be prosecuted until that object is
gained. If that rich shoot is ever
reached at depth the Pinnacle
will be rated as one of the mining
wonders of the countrp.
