Searance of Zeiszler. his wife and

left Oct. to go deer nunting in
the Coast Mountains west of here.
Several days later their car was
found beside a mountain road.
There has been no clue to where
they went from there or what hap
pened to them.
Wednesday's search, headed by
Sheriff Tony Neufeldt, was carried
out in foul weather that at times
cut visibility to 20 feet. The going
in the extremely rough, heavily
timbered country was so bad that
one searcher, Milton Reimer, Dal
las, collapsed. At the hospital here
he was treated for fatigue and
cold.
He was among the 85 National
Guard members from this area or
dered into the search by Mai. Gen.
Thomas E. Rilea. Sheriff's depu
ties snd other volunteers swelled
the total in the search to more
than 100.
The sheriff, who called off Thurs
day's search, said it would be
taken up again when the weather
improves. Similar bad weather had
halted the search on Tuesday
Aside from that, daily hunts, in
eluding with the aid of a helicop
ter, have turned up no clues at all.
The Zeiszler fanvrty moved to
Newport from North Dakota., last

what is now the Green district.
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.
"lney re an getting ora, ue
said, "except me."

After visiting workmen at lum

a meeting at the North Bend City
HaM that "every effort is being
made to cushion the effects of this

His Democratic opponent, Joseph

lumber strike or an industry to be
saved, the Patterson administra

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.
