OAKLEY FIFTEEN YEARS AGO


the Oakley newspaper, then The
Oakley Eagle, changed editors The
number for Thursday, August 1S,
1905, contains the farewell OF c. P.
Diehl and picture of the new edi-
tor, A. NJ Merrill, who at that time
was pricIpal Of Cassia Stake Acad-
emy.
There was an advertisement on
the front page ofthis number. which
would prove too interesting If inscr-
ted in this paper today. Fine
wines, liquors were advertis-
cd for sale at the metropolitan Sa-
loon" on Main street.
Anather ad might bring to mind
the old-fashioned prices: PLENTY Of
bran and shorts at 80 cents per hum
dred at the Oakley Roller Mills.
The same paper told Of the OPP
ening Of the town of Kimberly. For
ty-five lots sold for about $4,000.
The world was already becoming
modern fifteen years ago. Listen to
this local item: "Dr. Hannberg is
the proud possessor Of a graphone.
1t is hummer and makes music by
day and by night" We searched the
recors in vain to find out whether
the neighbors complained about the
music. But then, you know, papers
didn't print all the news, even fif-
teen years ago.
Below we give in full an article
which was reprinted fifteen years
ago from the Hepburn Review:

WOOD BLOCKS BEING
LAID IN new MANNER

The department OF streets will try
new form of construction In the
work being done on Market street be-
tween Ninth and Seventh. The WOOD
paving blocks have been taken up and
nre now being put back in place In n
different manner to that In which they
were previously put down This was
thought necessary in order 10 try to
stop the bullying OF the wood blocks
on the east side OF the street.
A brief. stretchcr has been placed
between the street car rails and the
paving blocks TO break the vibration
caused by the heavy Signal mountain
cars. which pass over these two blocks
on Market. The paving blocks are also
being placed on a bed Of concrete and
the blocks tarrcd both underneath and
on top. 1t In believed that thcAe i'm
provements will do nway with the evil
OF water seeping under the blocks and
causing them TO swell up. A space OF
about three inches will be loft between
the paving and the curb 30 aa to give
further room for the swelling.
On account OF the large number ~
street cars passing over the tracks be-
tween Ninth and Seventh streets md
tho great amount OF traffic on these
two blocks, 1t Ia n very difficult matter
to keep this section Of Market in re.
