There, be said, he had to identify himself only, as "Dan Steams' son" to get shelter for himself snd corrals for the stock at what he had heard was an uogr.gari ous settler's home. In about 1872, he returned to Douglas County, and shortly there after, ne ana ureea unenowetn, later to become his brother-in-law, bought out the Oakland hard ware store from P. F. Taylor and Charley Hall, who later was Doug las County sheriff. He has been wermtiea witn tnat business since. He retired only in 1046, when he was in a partner ship witn nis second son, tdwin, who stiH is in the store, Stearns save his interest to his grand sons. Fay and Robert. The tlder county resident was married to Nancy Elizabeth Chen oweth in October 1881, and two of their children still are living in Oakland. ' They are Edwin and Mrs. Guy (Esther) Peaier. Harry Stearns, another son who owned a mortuary in Oakland, died only a few vears aeo. Judge Stearns still comes down to the store every week; to see what's going on." He also is busv in Dart of his spare time in plans to sell parts of farmland he owns near his home. Only recently, he sold 50 acres to Martin Bros, box CO., and said he plans to sell more to s great-grandson, Jim, aiong i;ai aooova Creek. - His son, Edwin, says his father also has loaned money to young people coming into the area and seeking a start. The judge recalled some of the old times in tne county, wnen ne took over the store, Roseburg was no larner than Oakland, and urtn eriin didn't even exist. That town was founded only in 1908. In the winter, people had to work to get to Roseburg from Oakland, for the black mud of the area softened, and buggy wheels sank to the axles in the mire. At points, he said, it was easier to make a new tracK man o try to follow the old one. Oakland was trade center for all of the northern end of the countv then, though there was a small store at Drain. Besides the Oakland store, he also owned a mvtl business in Yoncalla. Creed Chenowefrh, he recalls, was his partner for 42 years before Chen oweth sold out his interest to Stearns. Even then, Chenoweth continued to work in the store. At the same time he was in the store, the judge relates, he ran his own and his father's ranches. Some of the other old-timers still' are living in Oakland, the judge said.

Ull- man s firm is accused of improper dealing in a 1947 real estate trans action. Ullman has said the charge was politically inspired. Ragnor John son, state real estate commission er, denied this. The rival candidates for gover nor were in Southwest Oregon. After visiting workmen at lum ber mills in North Bend and Coos Bay, Gov. Paul Patterson said in a meeting at the North Bend City HaM that "every effort is being made to cushion the effects of this summer's lumber' strike. Your state government . will do every thing within its power to protect snd promote this basic industry of the state." His Democratic opponent, Joseph K. Carson Jr.. said a few miles away at Myrtle Point. "Whenever the people's interest requires im mediate action in a crisis, be it a lumber strike or an industry to be saved, the Patterson administra tion can be depended on to stand by and do nothing." du&& Ives' Election Vital, Eisenhower Emphasises (Continued from Page, One) showing gloomy expression. He declared that many things were necessary to win organisa tion, plans, money but that none was so important as the heart for a fight. Eisenhower said he was hare possibly more as a voter ii New York State than as a "tempor ary resident" of Washington. He said there was nothing sec ret about the ballot he intends to cast. "I'm going to vote s strsight Republican ticket," he said, add ing that he was going to do so -entnusiasucaiiy." The President's speech last night was given before a dinoer commemorating the 300th anniver sary of the arrival of the first Jewish settlers in America, Although billed by the White House as "nonpolitical," that speech may hye served as some thing of a reply to recent sharp criticism of Eisenhower adminis tration foreign policy actions by former President Truman and Ad- lal Stevenson, the Democrats 1952 presidential candidate. The President said the "awe some" military might of the United stales and tne otner tree nations is a deterrent to war. He nledeed that armed might will be held ready "at all times . . to deal effectively and nex- iblv" with any new Communist threat. Eisenhower is scheduled to de liver what is billed as another "nonpolitical address tonight, at a New York dinner in honor of the late Alfred E. Smith, who ran for president on the Democratic ticket in 1928. The President is due back at the White House to morrow morning. Meanwhile, Vice President rTixon was giving a helping hand to Jo seph T. Meek, who is running in Illinois for the Senate seat now Douglas. In a Chicago speech last night, Nixon said .that when the Eisen hower administration took over 31 months ago it found the Demo crats had left in the files wfiat he termed "a virtual blneorlnt for so. cializing America" through "so cialized medicine, socialized hous ing, socialized agriculture, social bed water and power and . . . socializing of . . . atomic energy." He did not elaborate. ' At an earlier news conference, Nixon said the Republicans have been gaining ground in the last week or 10 days and that the con gressional elections can be won or lost by either party between now and voting day, Nov. 2. But Democratic National Chair man Stephen A. Mitchell, appear ing on a television program in New York last nignt, said a Democrat ic trend is "fairly definable." Other Democratic campaigners were busy yesterday peppering the Eisenhower administration and the Republican congressional record.
