GERAN LAW CHANGE
URGED BY MOOSERS

Members of the city committee Of
the Progressive party went on record
last night as favoring change in
the provisions of the Geran law. A
resolution was adopted and the mem
bers Of the Progressive Assembly
ticket are asked to adopt In their
platform a plank favoring an amend
ment to the law. The resolution is
as follows:
Resolved, That we, the Progressive
candidates of the city of Newark,
realizing the great injustice that was
committed on a large number of
voters, thousands of whom by reason
of the provisions of the Geran law
were prevented from participating in
the first primary of the Progressive
party held last Tuesday because of
past party utilization, respectively
urge the Progressive Assembly can
didates from this county to insist upon
a preferential primary plan similar
to the one now in operation In the
State of Wisconsin to be placed in the
Progressive State and county plat
forms.
I'VE favor the passage OF q prefer
entail primary law for the following
three reasons: First, because it
makes the primaries non-partisan;
second, It provides for the use of the
blanket ballot as we now have 1t at
election: third, because it becomes no
longer necessary for any voter to de-
clare his party utilization"
This resolution will be sent for
presentation at the State convention
to be held next Tuesday at Trenton.

With Bullet Still in Head,
Man Is Hailed Before Court
for Attempting to End Life

With the bullet with which he had
intended to kill himself still lodged
In his head near his brain, Gaetano
Pisciotta, twenty-eight years old, of
% Bedford street, was discharged
from the City Hospital today and
arraigned before Judge Herr in the
Fourth Precinct Court on a charge
of attempted suicide. As Pisciotta
is in a very weakened condition from
the bullet wound, Judge Herr or
dered that the man be sent to st.
Barnabas's Hospital until he is
strong enough to stand trial before
the grand jury.
After writing his mother in Italy
a farewell note, bequeathing her all
his trinkets, Pisciotta shot himself
in the right ear on September II.
He was rushed to the City Hospital
and for a while he was in a critical
condition. But he gradually re-
sponded to the treatment of physi-
clans and his recovery followed.
Pisciotta had been forced to under
go several operations for appendi-
cttis, and his ill-health preyed on
his mind.

Record of Month Just Past Hard tO
Equal in Any Part Of the U.

The United States weather bureau
report for February shows that Oro-
Vile can boast of rare winter eli
mate. During the month there was
but one cloudy day and two partially
cloudy days, the balance were all
clear. There was neither rain nor
snow throughout the month. The low
est temperature for the winter was re-
corded in February, and that was but
three degrees below zero on the night
of the 18th. The highest point reached
by the mercury was so degrees above
on the 18th of the month. Summar-
lied the report shows that the mean
minimum for the month was 14.9 de-
grees above zero, the mean maximum
81 degrees, mean % degrees, maxi
mum 80 degrees on the 18th, minimum
minus degrees on the 18th, greatest
daily range % degrees on the 2Sth.
And February was the severest winter
month that the people of Oroville have
experienced this winter. Spring has
come with March, and at the rate the
frost is leaving the ground the farmers
OF this valley will be plowing within

Last Saturday the high school

Mr.. Riste, drove over to Loomis where
they proceeded to take the high

by a score of y TO %. The game was
fast, clean and snappy, unmarried by
disputes or wrangling over decisions.
The crowd, which was large cheered

team, Lewis Provo scored the most
points, shooting five field haskets and
one free goal lowell playing live

KILLED BY HIS OWN GUN
Herbert Schwartz Accidentally Shot
Himself and Died From Shock
and Loss Of Blood

Herbert Schwartz accidentally shot
himself through the left knee joint
with a twenty-gauge shot gun early
Sunday morning while alone in the
house of William Barry on a ranch on
| Palmer mountain and died early Tues
day morning from the schOck and loss
of blood Schwartz, who was about %
years of age, was employed on the
ranch and had loaded the shot gun to
shoot birds AS he opened the door
to leave the house about seven in the
morning, cat entered the room.
Schwartz tried to drive it out but 1t
took refuge under stove. The Young
man poked at it with the shot gun and
in doing so discharged the gun, the
shot tearing hole through his left
knee just back of the knee cap. No
other person was on the ranch at the
time, nor anyone within calling dist
ance The wounded man had pres
once of mind enough to tie shoe
string above the wound to lessen the
flow of blood. He then lay in the
house until eight o'clock in the even
ing, when William Barry returned.
Mr.. Barry immediatly took him to
Loomis and telephoned to DR.. Elmer of
Oroville. The doctor was unable to
go to Loomis because of another case
that he was attending and could only
give instructions as to what to do for
the injured man to ease the pain and
stop the loss of blood. Schwartz was
brought here Monday morning in a
wagon from Loomis. Since he had
been without medical attention from
the time he was hurt, seven o'clock
Sunday morning until the hour of his
arrival, ten o'clock Monday morning,
and had suffered heavy loss of blood
in the meantime, it was impossible to
operate on his wound when he ar
rived.
DR.. Elmer had hopes of restoring
his strength sufficiently to care for
the wound in few days, but the
shock and the great loss Of blood suf-
fered by the young man proved too
severe, and he died early Tuesday
morning.
His remains were removed to the
Barnes undertaking .parlors and have
been embalmed, awaiting the arrival
from southern California of his father
Otto Schwartz and sister, who were
notified by wire of the death.
Herbert Schwartz was the oldest
son of Otto Schwartz, formerly res
ident of the Whitestone lake country.
The young man was born on the ranch
near Whitestone and spent practically
all of his life in this county.

FAVOR DETAILED SURVEY
EAST SIDE LAND OWNERS WILL
BEAR THEIR PROPORTION OF
NECESSARY EXPENSE
TWO DISTRICTS HARMONIOUS
Meeting Monday Was Well Attended
and the Action Taken Was
Practically Unanimous

The meeting of the land owners of
the East Okanogan Valley Irrigation
district, called for Monday afternoon
at the home of j. e. Peterson, ten
miles south of Oroville, was attended
by a large number of the district land
owners. and was very generally rep
resentative of the district.
Action similar to that taken by the
land owners of the west district the
previous week was decided upon at
the Monday meeting. A resolution
was adopted pledging the district to
bear it's share of the expense of de-
tailed survey of the project and auth
Orizing the sale of $4,000 worth of
bonds or so much as necessary for
that purpose.
Several who attended the meeting
went prepared to oppose the PROPOSE
ton of having a detailed survey made,
but when the purpose of having the
information and data secured was
made known, the opposition disap-
peared and the action of the meeting
was practically unanimous.
The meeting was of equal impor-
tance to that held by the land owners
of the west district the previous week,
and the action taken is significant of
the determination of the land owners
to do everything possible and reason
able to advance the interests of the
project. 1t is manifestation of the
right spirit, for by concerted and har-
monious action of this kind the best
and quickest results can be attained.
The time has come for constructive
work, which can be secured only
through united effort, and it is clearly
evident that when full and equal un-
derstanding of any proposition affect
ing the districts is had united action
can be obtained without difficulty. This
lis a most encouraging indication of
the character of the prevailing senti-
ment and should lead to an early de-
termination of the fate of the project,
which none who are familiar with 1t
and it's manifest advantages over 9TH
er irrigation projects can doubt will
be satisfactory to all interested.
