News announcing the death, at Los Angeles. of Frank Stock CT, was received here the fore part of the week. Before going to Los Angeles to engage in business, Frank Stocker resided at .Guaymas, where he was in the employ of the Southern Pa >cific of Mexico, many years. He is pleasantly remembered by many old timers in this section and in Sonora. News of his un timely passing will be learned with regret by his friends. Death came after all operation at the California hospital.

Bloome was given a preliminary hearing at Tucson last Wednesday and admitted to bail in the sum of $5, 5,OOO. His bondsmen are w. Beckford Kib5ey, Jr., the we'll known cattleman of this city, and George D. Elliott, of the La Osa Cattle Company. Bloome claims he killed the farmer in self defence.
 Loaded down with 1900 rounds of ammunition-small cartridges "a young Mexican was arrested last Tuesday evening, by Spe- cial Agent Al Scharff, who is ever on the alert for all sorts of camouflage artists who make a great mistake when they attempt to pass Al by. The boy, who was almost across the line when called, immediately squealed" on his pals, and told the officers where 25O0 more cartridges were concealed on this side of the in ternational line. He also gave information that may lead to the arrest of other members of a we'll organized gang of ammuni- tiOn SmugglerS.
 The Liberty Day celebration in Nogales, was big success in every way. All NogaleS took a half day off and everybody turn ed out to give the boys going to Camp Funston, a rousing send off. Music was furnished by the 35th Infantry band, which later give a concert in the park and played at the ball game between the professional and business men, at the High School grounds. At the park Judge w. A. O'Con- nor read President Wilson's Lib erty Day proclamation and de- livered short speech in behalf of the Third Liberty Loan, and the Boy Scouts sang "Over Here" The days celebration closed with Thrift Dance at the Santa Cruz Club for the ben eft of the Red Cross.

ALWAYS ON THE JOB

Rufus Woods, manager of the We

way, that is a credit to the city in
which it is published, and a produc-
ton for which Mr.. Woods and Mr..
Trimble, the men who pull the strings,
are entitled to a full measure Of
praise-Sundayed in Oroville. 1t was
the first visit that Mr.. Woods has paid
the upper country for some months,
but We cannot see that his happy
geniality has undergone any change
since the last time his smile illumin-
ated this sanctum. OF course Mr.
Woods was out in the interest of
his publication, as he is hustler
continually on the job, but while on
the road he found time to follow his
bent for special lines of news. This
time he was herding up and flocking
with octogenarians of the pioneer
brand While spying out 80 year old
sters he ran against centenarian
much to his surprise, living in the
southeast part of the county. This
ancient citizen has rounded out los
years, if he has not slipped a cog
on his calculations, and proved a
very interesting individual to meet
Mr.. Woods was extracting much
pleasure and satisfaction out of his
interviews.

1T IS IN THE SOIL

w. s. Ramsey who is doing the in
tensive farming act on tract in the
Ellis-Forde Tracts, few miles down
the river, is an enthusiast in the small
fruit and vegetable lines. Among
other things he went in for a superior
quality of pototo this year, a potato
grown especially for baking purposes.
His success is only what could be
expected where a man applies intel
lieent effort in preparing the seed
and caring for the plants, He tried
cut Early Rose, and Tuesday he was
shipping out a small box. Potatoes
cleaner and. more uniform in size we
have never seen produced anywhere,
and they are certain to make a hit
among consumers, especially consum-
ers of the always toothsome baked
spud. The potatoes are very large
and they produced very heavily this
year. Mr.. Ramsey states that The
dug eleven of those big tubers out of
a single hill, and his crop is large,
which is something remarkable from
the fact that on the average the po-
tato crop is going to be very light in
this locality. This result has been
accomplished by careful selection of
seed, careful preparation before plant
ing and careful attention while grow
ing. and any one following the same
formula anywhere in the valley will
obtain the same results. Mr.. Ramsey
who started in with his experiment
this spring for the first time, is de-
lighted with what he has accomplish
ed. However, he was bemoaning the
fact that he would have to move of
the tract to the hills in order to OBJ
tain some rest during the growing
season, for, he says, he is kept awake
at night by the onions and potatoes
insisting on their neighbors moving
over in order that they might have
room to spread out"

TO WORK THE RICH BAR

John Schmitt, of Toledo, Ohio, is
making his headquarters in Oroville
at the present time and will probably
remain here some months. Mr..
Schmitt is vice president OF the Ben
der Metals and Milling company, own
ing flotation plant at Nighthawk,
but the principal object of his pres
ence here at this time is TO inaugurate
extensive work on the Rich Bar mine
a most excellent property on the
south side OF the Similkameen river.
a few miles west of Oroville. In past
years considerable development has
been done on the Rich Bar under the
direction of Chas. L. Peterson. A
shaft was sunk to a considerable
depth, and drift run on the ledge.
The ledge is large one and some fine
ore has been encountered and CA
tracted in the past. Heretofore ali
the work has been done with hand
drills, and consequently progress was
both slow and expensive. Mr.. Schmitt
is here for the purpose of installing
a compressor and power drills. With
this equipment development will pro-
ceed rapidly at the Rich Bar, and ii
the ledge continues to hold out at its.
present size, carrying even the pres
ent values, that property is going to
be source of income to the opera
tors.

80 AN ACTIVE. CAMPAIGNER

Judge j. Stanley Webster, accom-
panied by his secretary, G. C. Hart,
spent Sunday in Oroville, while on
4 speaking tour through the upper
end of the county. Sunday evening
he spoke for few minutes in the
Methodist church before a large au-
dience, merely taking part in the
regular devotional exercises. Mr.
Hart informed us that Judge Webster
is meeting with the most flattering
encouragement throughout the dis
trict. Voluntary offers of support are
coming to him from all classes and
all parties. Indeed, it is noticeable
that party lines are almost wholly
obliterated this year, as all the loyal
citizens of the district ask of a can
didate "ls he a tried, true and un-
compromising American" In the case
|of Judge Webster the question is
never raised. His Americanism is
like bright light on a mountain top.
1t shines forth so resplendent that all
can see and know. Furthermore, his
ability is unquestioned. 1t is realiz-
ed that if Judge Webster is elected
to congress in mental poise and equip
|ment he will stand the peer of any
man in either branch of congress,
and the Fifth District would have a
representative in Washington to
whom all the people in the state, as
we'll as the nation at large, could
point to with pride. And so far as
the congressional delegation from
leastern Washington is concerned we
have been shy of men of that calibre
in congress for some years.

A BREWSTER PIONEER

Eb Tyler of Brewster, spent Sun
day in Oroville with his family, COM
ing up by auto Mr.. Tyler is an old
resident of Brewster, and can be
classed as pioneer of Douglas conn-
ty. He arrived at Waterville from
Texas nearly 80 years ago. Mr.. Tyl-
Ter graduated from print shop, and
for time in early days conducted a
democratic paper at Waterville. Eb.
welded caustic pen, and his paper
could always be depended on for hot
stuff. AS there is no financial future
for country scribe, and Mr.. Tyler
was ambitious to accumulate filthy
lucre he branched out in other vent
ures ,and finally wound up in the
apple pastime. He now owns 81
acre producing apple orchard near
Brewster, and while at times he has
had rocky road connecting with the
convenient and necessary dollar he
can see daylight ahead He reports
that his apple crop will fall short of
that of last year about 33 per cent,
which is going to be rule in many
orchards this year, yet he will har
vest between 5000 and 10000 boxes.
AS the price promises to be more at
'tractive than last year the income
will be about the same. Personally
Mr.. Tyler is very likeable gentle
man, and We trust he will win out q
competency for his old age.

conully small as the town is, had the
most skillful squad of high school
athletes of any town in the county.
On the gridiron, or at basket ball,
they were almost invincible, and at
the annual meets the school always
carried off the bulk of . the prizes.
Mr.. Funkhauser always accompanied
his boys, and in his presence it was
almost as much pleasure for the
opponents to take defeat as to
win, for Frank insisted upon playing
the game on the level. He was a
good loser, and never failed to give
the opposing team full credit for
good playing. He took no small ad-
vantage. He asked only fair field
and no favors. Naturally he wanted
his boys to win, but he would rather
lose than win by any questionable
methods. And that is why Frank
Funkhauser has host of warm
friends in this county. 1t is pleas
ure to state that Mr.. Funkhauser has
been admitted to the bar of this state,
and as he will bring his admirable
qualities into the practice of his pro-
fession he is bound to succeed.

A LONG FELT WANT

A movement is on foot to renew
work on the Oroville-Nighthawk wag-
on road and push it to completion. A
road up the Similkameen river to
Nighthawk to connect with the raml-
fcation of roads leading into the Sim
ilkameen valley has been sorely need
ed for years. Under present condi-
tions in order to reach Nighthawk ana
the adjacent country it is necessary
to make long detour. up through
British Columbia and the Richter pass,
or around by the way of Loomis, many
miles out of the way. A road up the
river only some IA miles would solve
the problem of travel, and would be
used more than any other road IN the
county, except the main Okanogan
valley road. AS stated 1t has been
a postponed necessity for years, and
now it is becoming far more necessary
as the mines to the west are being
more generally worked. Last spring
considerable money was spent on the
construction of this road and it was
! two-thirds or three-fourths finished
when the money gave out. Now 1t Is
proposed to complete the work. The
mining companies have taken hold OF
the proposition, and are willing to
contribute literally toward the ex-
pense of completing the work, and
undoubtedly these efforts will be aid
ed by the business men of Oroville
who have already given generously
toward that object. All who can dc
so should lend all the aid in their
power to make the Oroville-Night-
hawk road a reality.
