R. l.. Picken arrived in Oroville
Saturday evening from his trip to
Washington, where he represented the
irrigation district with Judge c. H.
Neal in q conference with the Indian
department in regard to including
Indian allotments located in the pro-
posed district. He believes that the
mission will bear fruit, as the depart
ment is favorable to the project. Mr.
Picken spent several days visiting his
old home in the east upon his return
trip and was delayed longer than he
expected. 1t was his intention to file
as a candidate for the legislature per-
sumably as a progressive as he took
that switch two Yeas ago, and could
not profess to run on any other party
ticket with a very clear conscience.
He arrived home too late to get in his
application, as entries closed Satur-
day. He may succeed in getting on
the ticket by means of petition.

Fred H. Towne, Geo. W. Miller, Ted

day. They had been on a tour through
the northeast part of the county on a
county seat removal campaign and
everywhere met with flattering en-
couragement. If TIE balance of the
county stands on that question as that
part of the county does there is moth

The death of Mrs. Wilson was a
shock to the country, and the sincere
sympathy of nation goes out to the
president in the hour of his great af-
Fiction. At the present time the
trials of his high office are weighing

devoted wife adds to the burden he IS
called upon to bear.
Rev. ]. H. Dill of Conconully, has
been assisting in a series of revival

the week. The subject of the sermon
at the revival services Monday night
was THE Worst Man in Oroville"
A good many of us did not attend
fearing that the reverend gentleman
might make too close a guess.
At one time it was thought that the
county offices would go begging this
year for want of candidates willing to
sacrifice themselves for their country's
good. Filing became active during the
last few days before the time of limi-
tation expired and there will be can
didates on the primary ballot for every
office.
