What this town needs Just now is
more push and less piffle. We do lot
OF talking about what we ought to
have, but the way to get what we want
because we want it, is to go out after
it. A cannery is within reach if we get
hustle. Farmers need superior
quality of seed wheat in this locality,
and what the town people should do
is to get that wheat for the farmer,
help him out when he needs help. This
town ought to have a government
building. Scores and scores of towns
|in the country have been provided with
federal buildings where the necessity
for such was not half as great as right
here in Oroville. Right here is one of
the principal lines of travel into and
out OF British Columbia. There are
both customs and immigration officers
stationed here. The postoffice the
customs office, the immigration office,
all are in rented buildings, with little
conveniences. A federal building here
would accommodate all of those Off
Gals. This town would not ask for
big appropriation for a federal build
ing. Thirty or forty thousand dollars
would supply a building that would
provide ample room for the postoffice
and the other federal offices The
amount is measly bagatelle in COM
parison with the huge sums asked for
by communities where there is really
no call for building of the kind
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1920-01-16

There has been some weather this
week, principally mild brand of
winter. For several days a heavy fog
hung over the valley, but Wednesday
the sun was out bright and warm.
Half the month is gone and even if
winter breaks ent again it will not
last very loneE-feirg that spring Is so
near at hand.
The new council is not made up of
supermen, but they are DESTROYS of
carrying out an administration that
will rebound to the best interests of
the whole community. The population
should stand back of them in every
move made for the improvement of
the town, or to make it more attract
i've to home seekers.
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1920-01-16

There are other things that the town
needs where little pull might turn
the trick, but our people seem to be
doing at the crossing and fail to reach
out for what is almost within their
grasp. Good things seldom come to
those who sit around and wait. 1t is
communities that buck up, and reach
out, and drag in that snakes the bacon.
1t is time that we were clawing around
for some of the pork.
The Oroville weekly gazette. [volume] (Oroville, Wash.) 1905-19??, 1920-01-16

OF man to do as he bloody please
with what he feels is his own, whether
stomach or money, has led up to these
severe restrictions. with the attached
punishment.

GRANGE ASKS STATE
MASTER TO RESIGN

VANCOUVER, Wash, Jan. "a
William Buck. master of the state
grange, has been asked to resign by
Washington grange at Orchards.
In the resolution adopted it was
stated that "the national master mas
decided that the triple alliance is po-
Iiical party and that any effort on the
part of the grange leaders to align the
members with this or any other polit-
ical party is a violation Of the rules OF
the organization: that the campaign
being waged by Mr.. Buck to align the
grange with the triple alliance is det-
rimental to the grange and tothe in
terests of farmers generally: that by
indorsing methods and principles OF
radical leaders whose speeches and
literature are dangerously near to an
archy and rebellion, the grange is
brought into disrepute, and also that
shorter hours. more pay and cheaper
food for labor do not fit in well with
the grange policies.
This and the anarchist thought
running through much Of their litera-
ture leads sober minded people to fear
what would occur if they got control.
That a meeting held in Grand Rapids
in which Mr.. Buck took an active part
the body voted Overwhelmingly that
farmers and labor organizations have
nothing in common" IL was re-
solved by Washington grange No 81
that we disapprove of your efforts
along this line and we suggest that
since you are out of harmony with
true grange spirit and find the com
pany of radical labor more to your
liking. that you resign as state mas
ter"
The resolution committee included
w. II. Chilson. r. B. Phipps and a. Fl.
Grner. Meta d. McCafferty is mas
ter of the Washington grange and
Mrs. Joseph Bersch is secretary.
