Individually and collectively men Of
ten act under sudden impulse, with
out stopping to weigh both sides of 4
question. A rather amusing incident
OF this nature occurred at the meeting
OF the Commercial Club last Thursday
night. The committee on finance for
the 4th of July celebration had report
Ell progress, and it struck those pres
ent that line OF business, that US
TALLY is the greatest beneficiaries by
the collection of a crowd, had not re-
sponded with the proper liberality. A
motion prevailed, and prevailed almost
unanimously, that if disposition on
the part of those men to increase their
contributions did not develop the pro-
posed celebration would be declared
off. Upon interviewing those business
men it was found that they would not
come through any stronger, and then.
after some discussion, it was decided.
with only two or three dissenting votes
TO reconsider the action taken and
push the celebration anyhow to a sue
cessful conclusion. Those who chang
ed their minds had not taken into con.
s:deration in the first place that the
celebration had already been advertis-
ed over the county. that many resi-
dents OF near by communities had ex-
pressed an intention to come to Oro-
vile on the days the celebration is to
take place, and that to quit at such
stage OF the proceedings would have
placed Oroville in such . position that
the town could hardly ever again make
announcement of a public denonstra-
ton with any hopes of convincing the
people OF the surrounding country that
such announcement was bona fide.

SUGGESTING A NAME
Tonasket, Wash, May rs, 1915.

Tonasket, Wash, May rs, 1915.
Dear Editor:
There are likely but few people in
the Okanogan valley that realize to
the full the fast growing Importance
Of our state road No. 10. Important to
this state and to almost the entire
United States. At once it will be con-
nected up with the Pacific highway,
Vancouver to Montreal. In time it
will connect with the great Lincoln
memorial highway, away to the south
New York to San Francisco. And
now comes the national parks high
way, from Plymouth Rock, Mass, by
way of the twin citines and Yellow
stone national park to Seattle, eros
sing our No. 10 at Wenatchee. And
this road No. 10, is the only north and
south connecting link from ocean to
ocean. In the east there will likely
be cross country roads laid out, in
time but west of the rocky mountains
there can be no direct north and
|south roads except by way of the Okla
hogan valley. And now, Mr.. Editor,
here is what peeves the writer: To
think that a valley that by reason of
its geographical Importance and pecul-
lar physical contour is the only pos
sible north and south route connect
ing these great east and west high
ways, and then, what is the name of
that road, please? Oh, State Road No.
10. Wouldn't that jar you? The Okla
hogan highway in big letters, Mr..
Editor, that's what We want. In time
the road will go on up to the famous
Okanogan region in Canada, and our
nelghbors to the north would sure
favor the name. In this state certain
ly no objection could be raised to
changing from number to name.
and the name would do much to ad-
vertise the Okanogan valley. l be-
lieve the idea has come to a number
OF valley residents but this may be
the first time that it has been given
publicity. Let's start a move to give
this road its rightful name-Okanogan
Highway.

means to meet the situation. Per-
haps people will feel that it is not
necessary to cross the bridge until
the bridge is reached, but time is
slipping along, as is its habit, and IN
another six months half of the present
income of the municipality will be
cut off. There is no philanthropist in
this community, no matter how eager
he was to remove that source OF In
come. who is going to step forward
and reimburse the town for the loss.
Taxes can not be increased, for taxes
are already verging on confiscation.
In business circles the man who lives
beyond his income has bankruptcy
staring him in the face. town can
not keep running into debt, because
debt must be liquidated some time.
As the means for meeting expenses
will be curtailed all that can be done
i to retrench, and it is going to take
a wise guinea to figure out how to run
the town on the income that can be
counted on after the first of January

In the death of George J. Gardiner,
who died at Okanogan Monday after
very brief illness, this county loses
an old time resident and a most worthy
and valuable citizen. His death is es-
pecially deplored and regretted by the
people of Oroville, for he made his
home here for several years, and his
friends number the entire population.
The deceased was man of far more
than ordinary intelligence and ability,
and of high moral character. In his
relations with his fellowmen he was
always kind and considerate. He
shrank from giving pain or offense to
any one. Yet he was a man of firm
convictions on questions of public
policy, although he was never Often
sive in trying to force those convic-
tons upon others. He was always
frank, genial and pleasant in his in
tercourse with friends and neighbors,
warm of heart and gentle in demeanor
Those who knew George Gardiner in
timately could not help from loving
and respecting him. The news of his
sudden death was a great shock to
this community. and on every hand
the expressions of keen sorrow and
regret were spontaneous and sincere.
He was man the county could i'll
afford to lose, and his place can not
easily be filled. Long will his memory
live green among those who knew him
in this life.

the 1000 shares of stock, the property
OF the Egan estate, which were held
In trust, as he was invested with the
power OF attorney OF j. J. Egan, nov
on the mainland. .-.-s
One theory voiced today was that
Marcallino's original theft of stock was
for about 10000; that in order to GOV.
er his peculations ne mad to pay 1925
a month dividends, and that soon he
found he would be forced to secure
more money to continue his payments.
The next theft increased the amount
of dividends he had to send to Egan
to cover up his entertainments and
as time went on he had to take more
and more of the stock and sell II to
hide his misdeeds.
MarcaIlino's motive for the alleged
embezzlement also has been made the
subject of much conjecture. 1t was
learned today that Marcallino, aside
from earning a moderate salary as
court clerk received a considerable
additional income from work which
he did in the appraisement OF various
estates. and acting as master I'm ham
ding the reports of the accounts of
estates. Only recently he was award
ed fee of $3.50 for rendering mas
ter's report.
Circuit Judge Whitney had no fur
Their statement to make today regard
ing the matter. Although no success
sor to Marcallino has been appointed,
il is understood that A. Kalei. Aone,
deputy clerk and bailiff, may land the
job.
Continuance until November was
granted this morning when the case
of John Marcallino was called in
Judge Monsarrat's court, the motion
for continuance being made by Rob-
ert w. Breckons, who appeared as
Marcallino's attorney.
Breckons asked for the continu-
ance. 1t is said, so that the prelimin-
airy hearing might be dispensed with,
as he expects a grand jury indict-
ment, which will make hearing be-
fore Judge Monsarrat unnecessary.
In the complaint against MarcalIino
he is charged with selling stocks in
the Oahu Railway and Land
Company and in the Honolulu Brew
ing & Mailing Company, valued at
$4,000 and the property of ]. J..
Egan. The complaint alleges that
the stock was sold during period
Of five years prior to November 2,
1915.

new VESSEL FOR
MATSON Line TO
BE Twin SCREW
"Makiki" is Name Which Will
Probably Be Chosen for
Duplicate of MatSonia

Twin-screw, geared turbine drive
and with probably three or four knots
more speed than the Matsonia, this is
the latest news concerning the big
new steamer, a duplicate of the Mat
sonia, to be built Immediately by the
Matson Navigation Company, as an
nounced by the Star-Bulletin several
weeks ago. The new steamers name
viii probably be the Makih.
This latest detail concerning con-
struction of the new steamer was
made public today. by T. H. Petrie,
secretary of Castle & Cooke, local
Matson agents. The company receiv-
ed a letter yesterday from Capt. Will
liam Matson, president of the Matson
Navigation Company, containing the
information that the new liner would
be twin-screw and turbine drive.
Il wanted another ship which would
duplicate the Matsonia," says Capt.
Matson's letter in part, except that
1t would be Of geared turbine drive
and twin-screw."
That the name Of the big new boat,
which viii cost more than $1,600.00O,
the Matsonia's original price, will
probably be the Makiki, although 1t is
not yet definitely known, was stated
by Mr.. Petrie, who said that CONF
pany's policy now is to begin the
names of its future boats with the
letter NJ, and that it Is naming the
new ships after the Honolulu valleys.
They started with the Manoa," he
observed this morning, land If they
follow this rule the new steamer will
be named Makiki, the name of the
first valley this side of Manoa. OF
course we don't know positively as
yet just what its name will be. but
Maxiki looks the most likely at the
present time"
Mr.. Petrie said the new steamer
viii contain number of improve
ments, such as a different arrange
ment of staterooms, dining saloon,
kitchen and other features which ex-
perience has shown could be improved
In another ship duplicating the Mat
sonia In size.
The Matsonia's speed is Is knots.
Shipping men agree that geared tur-
sfiie drive and twin screw should give
the new steamer Is or 10 knots easily.
The twin-screw plan also makes for
greater security in case one Of the
propellers should break.
