The campaign at Camp Fremont was
hard and long. but we fought 1t thru
with laughter and song. The towns
We captured were large and small
The resistance was strong but they
had to fall. We took Palo Alto, San
Jose. and other cities near San Fran
cisco. Then we boarded the train for
the Eastern shore, but when we land

lost his crown and gone on fur
Tough to some Holland town, so at
camp mills we were sitting tight
though we shivered by day and froze
by night. The general told us to be
patient for there was still a chance
of going to sea. 1t sounded all right
for him to tell. but since the war was
over, it was back to the farm. How
ever, another little move would do us
no harm, so we waited and waited
for the fatal day and at last ii came

ALPINE COUNTY NOT
DRY; OH, BOY! OH, JOY!

The following appeared in a Reno
newspaper a few days ago under
Markleevile date line and is about as
truthful as the story published in the
same paper about physician travel
ing on snow-shoes for ~ miles to
reach Bridgeport, in order to reach
the influenza sufferers at that town:
Alpine county, the baby county of
California. has gone "dry"-not by
legal enactment. but by decree of
King Snow. There are five saloons in
Alpine county, but none of them has
drop of liquor for the thirsty, for the
reason that no supplies can be re-
ceived except through the state of
Nevada, and Nevada is prohibition
state. The only other entrance into
the county is blocked by mountains
of snow and will not be opened until
midsummer. So the drought Is likely
to continue for three months and by
that time the whole of California may
be dry"
This makes a good story, but il
you have thirst and the price, you
will not be disappointed in Alpine
county.
