was employed for a time on the Riv-
erside Argus and his cartoons favored
removal to that town. Before the cam
paign ended he was working on the
Conconully Record opposing removal
The boys of the press in the county
held out lot of Mr.. Lovejoy's old
cartoons and have been using them in
the late campaign in arguments fav-
oring removed to Okanogan. 1t was
like chickens coming home to roost
The British Columbia authorities
have set the poles and stretched wires
from Fairview to the international
line near Osoyoos custom house, and
now it is up to the people Of this place
to cover the gap between Oroville and
B. c. terminus. Arrangements are
being perfected to do this, and before
long Oroville will be in telephone COM
munication with various points across
the line, which will prove to be a great
convenience.
While business houses were not
closed Tuesday there was not great
deal of business going on, as the pop
ulation turned attention largely to
election. Knots of men were scatter
ed about town discussing pro and
con the fitness and unfitness of the
various candidates, the several meas
ures to be voted on and county seat
removal, the latter item received much
the most attention as that was of di-
rect local interest.
Clay Fruit was up from Tonasket
Sunday as jolly and deboniar as
though life was a continual round of
pleasure. Mr.. Fruit believes in
square deal in politics, and was shock
ed at the circular that was distributed
through the county and purporting
to eminate from republicans in this
place. He was not alone in experience
ing the shock, for that is the way
every honest man felt who saw the
obnoxious broadside.
Billy Ryan was registered this week
at one of the hotels as from Concon-
ully. Mr.. Ryan has been at sea for a
week or more without sails or rudder.
He was figuring on putting in gar
age at Conconully, but if the county
seat is removed it would not pay him
to make the venture. He was i'm
patiently awaiting the verdict at the
polls. Anyhow, wherever Mr.. Ryan
decides to locate and open a garage
he ought to do we'll, as he is an ex-
pert mechanician and knows an auto
mobile from the tail light to the COM
plicated thingabobs that make the
wheels go around.
E. McCammon, who has been work.
ing for fortnight fixing up the stamp
mill at the Golden Zone mine, near
Chopaka, returned home Saturday.
He reports that the Zone mill is now
running steadily right and day on
ores taken from the mine. If the re-
suit of the run proves to be satisfact-
DRY the mill will pre- badly continue in
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1914-11-06

operation indefinitely. The revival of
the Golden Zone, with success follow
ing mill tests, would give a great i'm
petus to mining in this section. If
all the reports are true of the extent
and character of the ore encountered
in the Zone when it was last worked
it would seem that it could hardly fail
to pay.
| Hon. Hans Lund left for his home
in Kansas City last week after having
spent couple of months visiting with
his son, Arthur Lund, at Tonasket.
Mr.. Lund, ST., is largely interested in
Okanogan county AID believes that
| this county has a great future. He
has been a frequent visitor to the
county in the past dozen years, and
his friends trust that the visit will be
repeated often in the future. Mr..
Lund has earned the title of globe
trotter in recent years, as he makes
a voyage across the water every sea-
son. He may yet take a trip to Den
mark this winter, though the attrac-
ton for travellers in Europe just now
| is not great.
Last Friday evening rs friends of
Mr.. and Mrs. P. M. Snider swooped
down on them at their home on
Osoyoos lake, and such another happy
evening seldom have rs people enjoy
ed. The home was crowded to the
limit and there was an overlooking
gathering on the beach, where bon
fires were started with constant
merry fitting between the house and
the water edge. The festivities
stretched well into the night. That
the Sniders were taken by surprise
goes without saying, but they receiv-
ed the jolly visitors with all the hos
pitality at their command, and all who
were there are not likely to forget
the goings on for many days to come.
A circular letter issued from Con-
conully day or two before election
connected indirectly the names of DR..
G. p. House of this place and Clay
Fruit, of Tonasket, with a defamatory
circular sent out against the republi-
can candidate for the legislature.
Those who know the two gentlemen
intimately do not believe that they
were parties to any such dirty work.
They are men of extreme likes and
dislikes. and their tempers are not
always angelic, but they are not the
men to attack any individual anony-
mously. If they have anything to say
they spit it out openly and above
board. The author of that circular,
whoever he was, is a past master in
slum politics, and probably it was not
the first offense in that line.
A Halloween party was given in
the school house Saturday evening to
the high school juniors that was large
ly attended by the scholars of the
school, and intensely enjoyed by all
present.

power to Chief Gleason alone.
Attorney James T. Brady, repre-
senting the Clingen Curtain System,
applied for the writ on the grounds
that Gleason alone had the power to
issue or refuse to issue moving pic

'And that power" argued Brady,
cannot be delegated to another,
whether, it be Major Funkhouser or
some one else.

PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY Is
SUSTAINED IN NATION.

Congress will be safely democratic.
Though the majority is cut TO a mini
mum "a united democracy can continue
its work and effect the building of a
wall of defense that the opposition
will be powerless to overthrow after
the policies of the administration have
been given a fair trial. The republico-
progressive attempt 10 befog the issues
of the campaign had its effect but hap
PLY failed 10 accomplish the full
purpose to which il aspired.
One thing. however, is self-evident.
There are but two great parties in the
country; the democratic and the re-
publican. The progressive party has
failed TO make the showing that it
ought TO have made but for one thing
The democrats who voted with the
prOgressives two years ago have come
back" Prest Wilson's wisely progress
sive policies have overcome their fears
and they have come To realize that
there is no longer need of the pro-
gressive party organization. on the
other hand about one-half of the re-
puDnCatlS VINO ulSSenIeu IN 1917 nave
discovered that they were not as pro-
gressive as they thought they were,
and they have gone back" In con-
sequence about one-third of the pro-
gressive vote Of 1912 remained.
For effective work for these. there
seems to be but one haven now, and
that is democracy. The country has
divided very much as anticipated but
under the old names. No one can re-
view the elections Of the republican
party. returning TO public life,
wherever successful. an almost solid
front of the most stalwart reaction
aries. and do otherwise than regard
that party as the great conservative
party of the country. while democracy
attains the role OF the distinctively
progressive party. This country will
henceforth be reactionary or progress
sive according TO which of the old
parties are in power,-and the true
progressive who has been progressive
from principle, will find little difficulty
under such an alignment in choosing
his future partisan home.
