Quor on Sunday is misdemeanor'
those who deal in the goods know the
law, and if they break it they are tax

that it may have been done as favor
does not reduce the wrong doing an
iota. Breaking the law is not paliated'
But there is feature about this spy
ing business that savors Of dirty work.
The man who will go into saloon for
the sole purpose of inducing the pro-
prietor to commit . wrong should be
held as an accessory. Possibly that
may be the only means by which evil
dence can be obtained to insure con-
viction, and those so engaged may con-
slider that the end justities the means,
but it is contemplate occupation,
unless the parties so engaged are Of
ticers of the law especially detailed to
the work, and even then there are men
who would not be proud OF the assign
ment.

SOLD LIQUOR ON SUNDAY.

\ sensation was created about town
Monday by the appearance of Deputy
Sheriff Mclean. of Conconully, armed
with warrants for the arrest OF Jas.
Holmes and Ed. Buzzard. proprietors
of saloons in Oroville. on charge of
selling liquor on Sunday. They gave
bonds in the sum of $500 to appear in
court at Conconully Wednesday. The
arrests were evidently the outcome Of
we'll laid scheme TO nab all thos e
who could be caught in the act of selling
liquor onSundsy throughout the county.
and if reports coming in are correct
the spoilers did not hesitate at any
despicable means to secure the evil
dence necessary TO convict. 1t is said
that over a score of arrests have been
made on the same charge all over the
county, three of whom are druggists
1t is shocking TO relate that some OF
the parties were pulled in strong local
option communities, which would in
dictate that it is hard to legislate away
a consuming thirst. and that prohibit
ton does not always prohibit.
The misdemeauor of which the Orc
Vile dealers are accused is alleged to
have been committed Sunday, Feb
ruary ,. In the case of Holmes the
liquor was obtained from the barkeeper,
which does not exonerate the pro-
prietor. In the Buzzard case it seems
that he was ia the back room of his
place of business on the day in ques-
ton. Two men came in the back way
and claiming that they were perishing

THE BEST ON THE ROAD.

The Lyceum Players appearing at
the Lyric theatre last Thursday night
fulfilled the promise made that the
public would find in the troupe re-
fined entertainment and one of the
most enjoyable that has appeared be-
fore an Oroville audience. To the
credit of the place be it said that one
of the largest and most sppreciative
audiencns that has ever turned out
here greeted the performe rs. The
Lyceum group is one of the best COM
binations travelling under the auspices
Of the Walker bureau. and should the
company ever elect TO visit Oroville
again they would meet with a warmer
welcome than was accorded them last
Thursday night. The harp selections
by Romanillo were exquisite. and
especially enjoyed on account of the
care opportunity TO hear the instru-
ment played by a skillful hand. Miss
Nixon was very clever in those parts
taken by her in comedy sketches.
Bruce Gordon. with his finely modu
lated voice, won the audience by his
delightful rendition of Scotch songs.
The chief attraction was Walter Nc
Rave. who has appeared here before
and is great favorite on the circuit.
Mr.. McRaye was at his best, and
seems TO improve in his special role
from year 10 year. His recitation Of
the quaint poems Of Drummond was
the hit of the evening. Mr.. McRaye
has pleasing command of the French
Canadian patois, and is able TO give an
almost perfect Interpretation of the
humorous and pathetic spirit OF the
selections he has chosen for his stage
work

end of the county who have ascertained
what their taxes are this year will feel
that division could hardly make the
burden greater. and will be willing TO
take the chances on any ills they know
not of in the way of taxation to escape
the ills with which they are now af-

The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1911-02-17
AN UNTENABLE POSITION

In conversation with the parties who
were arrested in Oroville, so they state,
Sheriff Thorp gave as an excuse for
making the arrests in the manner in
whcih they were accomplished that the
Oroville Gazette had criticised the
sheritf's officers for not performing
their duty at Riverside in suppressing
the sale of liquor. So, instead of de-
serving credit for the action as per-
formed in the line of duty, this new
born zeal is to be set up against the
sheritf's office, on the admission of the
sheriff, as a case of revenge. Not a
very exalted position for public Of
tcer TO assume this striking at parties
in no way responsible for an alleged
action that he took exceptions TO.
But Mr.. Thorp's position is wholly
untenable, and his charge without
foundation. This paper, so far as the
writer can remember, has never criti-
cised Mr.. Thorp in his official capacity,
or as a private citizen, although there
may have been opportunities SO to do.
The only time, so far as can be re-
membered. that there was any COM
plant OF Illicit liquor selling at River
side was during the fair, which &C.
Cured several months ago. The Riv-
erside Argus. with good grounds, was
the one that did the commenting at
that time. and if this paper mentioned
it the item was taken from the Argus.
If that called for revenge Mr.. Thorp
Is good Indian TO nurse the grievance
and spring the trap at this late date
The writer, during his long exper-
fence in the newspaper business in the
county, has aimed to treat public Of
ticials fairly and justly, and has never
criticized unless there were good rea-
sons for so doing. This paper opposed
the election of Mr.. Thorp, not as an
individual, but as a candidate on the
ticket OF an opposition party. That
opposition was not personal, but gen.
eral. Mr.. Thorp cannot deny that
during both the campaigns he was
candidate the writer treated him cour-
teOusly. Mr.. Thorp did not look for
support from republican paper, and
the republican paper took no undue
advantage Of him. Mr.. Thorp might
have had reason 10 nurse grievance
had the writer used all the material
that was offered. but he refused to
make personal attack on any can
didate.
The writer is rather inclined TO be-
lieve that Mr.. Thorp gave out wrong
impression. II is hard TO conceive that
an official would excuse his action in
making an arrest Of persons in no wise
interested in the property on account
Of offense taken at some article that
may have appeared in this paper 1t
was more likely a desire TO show ami
mostly to the Gazette for the attitude
it has taken on county division. at least
that Is the inference TO be drawn. In
matter of this nature. where locali-
ties are divided against each other.

ANNOUNCES HIMSELF
As Candidate For the Nomina-

a Winner.

Hon. Loomis 8. Gull, the Black Hills
candidate for Governor made his
formal announcement as candidate
for the nomination to that office
at the Clay county fair at Yer
million, Wednesday.
His speech during the afternoon was
the feature of the day and large
crowd listened to his talk on national
and state topics. 1t was q mastery
and forceful effort and showed that be
ls good campsigner as we'll as broad
and sincere.
He outlined a clean. out platform Of
important issues and announced his
position firmly and without equivoca.
tion.
''When I ask you to elect me COVER
nor Of this state" said Mr.. Gull, "you
have right, and as good citizens It is
your duty to inquire into my qusliflca-
tions and my views on the important
questions of the day. AS to my quali-
dcations, others must answer. AS to
my position on present.day issues, 1
am and always have been q republican.
This definition mAy not be sufficiently
exact, so l will add that for several
years past have been classed as pro-
gressive. Perhaps the best way for me
to do will be to tell you the measures
I favor and let you determine where 1
should be classed."
The following are the important
planks of the platform to which he
committed himself. He declared for
Reform in court procedure, the
