By 1853. it waa a 'roaring camp of some 10.000 people, about half of them Chinamen. t. now nearly aesenea "imu" VYt not quite ready to Join the ranka 'Si. the "ghost" towna.

But what memorleal If you want to feel the thrill of ro mance atand In the deserted Main atreet of one of these old towna and let your Imagination run free. OLD Shasta. atVe peak half white and half Chinese. The whltea wouldn't permit the Chinese to possess guns, but the In herited hatreds that burned In Wit ness bosoms couldn't be throttled. On day the Hong Kongs and the Cantonese fell upon ecah, other, armed only with butcher knives, pick handles and a peculiarly vicious breed of three-pronged fish spear, and when the dust of battle cleared away a dozen were dead and aome 80 badly wounded. A apeclmen of those old fish speara, w.hlch appear to have been locally manufactured, la still preserved In the museum that Is maintained In one of the old buildings. TIMBER waa scarce in the hills around Bedding. . So when old Shasta waa founded they looked around until they found a bed of clay, and from thia clay they mould ed and burned bricks and with the bricks they erected substantial bulld- lnga. These buildings were Jolsted with whlpsawed timbers and on these timbers were laid tin roofs. The roofs Save rotted away, but tha stout old brick walla remain. Inside these walls, trees have sprout ed and grown to good size. Up ON the hil'l,' back of the eld town, atands a dwelling house. It waa erected away back In 1851, by Dr. Shurtllffe, who wanted a com fortable house, a pleasant home, a "homey" house." So he scorned the bricks of which the Main atreet buildings were constructed and built Jala house of wood regardless of ex- pense. ' Do you lift your eyebrows when the word "expense" Is used in connection with a pioneer wooden house? Well, the rough timbers and boards of which the house was built were whlp sawed from trees brought back from tha hills, and the cost was A DOL LAR A BOARD FOOT. The finishing lumber waa brought from Maine, around the Horn, in sailing vessels. What It coat Is not recorded, but It must have been plenty. "po OLD SHASTA? back In the early fifties, came George Washington Ball, a direct descendant of the fam ily of Mary Ball Washington, mother of George Washington. He built the Charter Oak hotel, and when it waa finished they held , a grand opening ball. Tickets to the ball cost (30 each, and sold like hot cakes. The ball gave to the women of the camp a golden opportunity to display their finery, and they took full advantage of It. They came early, attired In a part of their best, and at 10 o'clock they rent home and changed and came back in new outftta.

The second hunting tragedy In one week'a time in the forest regions out from Butte Palls occurred yesterday morning when Joe St. Germsin. 30. of Central Point, waa killed by his hunting partner, Relnhard A. Rolf. 34, also of Central Point, who ad mitted to the district attorney last night In a lengthy statement that he mistook St. Germain for a bear and shot him with his .32 Winchester special when he waa crossing a log, 30 feet from hlra. One week ago yesterday Glen Fabrlck, well known Medford business man. was killed in the neighboring region out from Lodge F-le. when mistaken for deer by Ellsworth Konkle with whom he waa hunting. Rolf, who Is held on a charge or Involuntary manslaughter, left the county Jail this morning In the cus tody of officers to visit the scene of the shooting with Sheriff Ralph Jennings, District Attorney Codding and Sgt. James O'Brien of the state police. They are not expected to return from the Investigation until late today as the country Is very rough, located about lx mllea be yond the old Hawk mill and a ahort distance from the Dahack cabin. 20 mllea north of Butte Falls. TJie bullet fired from Rolf's gun. he stated last rUght, entered St. Ger maln'a body through hla back, com ing out under the left arm. Deputy Coroner Walker was of the opinion today, however, that tlie bullet had entered tinder the arm and contin ued through hla back. St. Germain lived 30 minutes after he was shot, according to Rolf's report to the district attorney. No account of the accident was received In Medford until Rolf and other members of the hunting' party arrived In the city with the body after 7:30 o'clock last night. The shot which killed St. Germain, was fired between 7:00 and 8:00 yesterday morning. Rolf told the officers. Close Together 'Reviewing the tragedy, he stated that he had left camp with St. Ger main, who expressed a desire to stay near him because of hla Inexperience In the forests. They traveled for some distance, then St. Germain fell behind. Rolf arrived at two logs and wailed for him to meet him. He whistled and St. Germain answereo. He waited a few minutes but the man did not appear. He started to Hlmh the rldee and had gone 30 feet, when he heard a noise. He turned back and saw what he took to be the outline of a bear on the loir looklne toward the direction from which he had expected St. Germain to come. The figure did not move so he sighted his rifle and nulled the trigger. At the report he saw the flirure slide from the log, then St. Germain's head came Into view. He looked at Rolf he said, and moaned "Oh." "In two or three Jumps I was down there." Rolf explained In his written statement to the district at tornev." He waa still standing up. I laid him on the ground and asked him If he were badly hurt. He ans- wered 'No'." Examining him. Rolf found the bullet hole traveling from the man's back to his side. St. Germain was dressed in blue overalls, a brown 'cost, white cap and white shirt. Rolf removed his cloth ing and endeavored to put him at ease, realizing that his condition was critical. St. Germain lived 30 min utes. Then' Rolf started to camp with the body In search of Fred Mor gan, O. W. Starkey. John Atchlev, Bill Colburn and Frank Netherlands, other members of the hunting party. He arrived at the spring and left the body there to Increase his own speed to csmp. When he arrived the men were out.

(AP) Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt In a campaign address before a near ca pacity crowd at the Big springneia arsenal today advanced a three-point orozram for agricultural relief. "The three great atepa which we must take," he Bald, "are, first, the federal government owea it to agricul ture to see that it gets a fair price for Its producta. That means that the price of farm products must be raised above the present ruinously low levels to which they have fallen. "A properly adjusted tariff can do much in this direction, but tne pres ent tariff policies of the republican administration have done precisely the opposite. Pending the relief that will be afforded by properly adjuated tariff policy, measures must be taken to give the farmer Immediate tariff benefit. Thia means in substance practicable plan agreed to by agricul tural leaders which will provide lor the former a higher return for certain of hla crops. I set forth tnese princi ples which such a plan must embody, in my Topeka speech, and these prin ciples have been widely accepted as a basic plan of action In formulating the necessary legislative relief. "Second, there must be lifted from the backs of every farmer the heavy load of taxation which today weigha upon blm. This load la made up of three parts, 'the local, state and 'na tional units. At Pittsburgh I out lined the position of the democratlo party, and my position on the ques tion of the honest balancing of the federal budget and the imperative need of immediate economy in na tional expendlturca. I also reiterate now my promise to exert all available Influence in the position as the -president of the United States toward the reduction of all state and local taxes. "Third, we come to the vastly Im portant principle concerning the bur den which farm mortgages now bear on every agricultural community." Recalling what he said on farm re lief at Topeka at the start of his coast to coast campaign swing, the governor said he wanted to add "that the government ahould make a def inite condition when advancing fed eral credit, that wherever possible Interest rates 'must be lowered for re newed or extended mortgages. "Whenever the government of the United States," he continued, "exer cises any control over the situation It is the duty of that government to de mand every practicable and possible assistance to the farmer seeking credit to finance his crops, an1 his farm, to obtain for him the very low eat reasonable rate of Interest." "The solution of this (farm) prob lem," he said, "Is our first concern In national rehabilitation. . . My program Is opposed to and alma to 8top the ruthlesa foreclosure of farm mortgages. Accusing the administration of be ing "derelict" In employing J,he i 125.000.000 new capital of the fed eral land banks to assist the strug gling farmer debtor, Roosevelt an nounced: - I ahall recommend legislation to the congress for the scaling down of amortization Installments of federal (Continued on Page Six) CHICAGO.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 31. (AP) rho overshadowing stature of the countrya economic plight how It came about and how good tlmea can bo fully restored looms larger and larger over the political scene as the campaign attalna the full fury of Its concluding weeks. This Is one instance in which an Issue accepted as paramount by both sides In the very beginning, actually became paramount In the more ma ture utterances of later weeks, and promises to so continue until the end. To the economic Issue, with Ita many ramifications, Mr. Hoover and Mr. Roosevelt now are devoting al most exclusive attention. Only a very small percentage of any of their speeches takea notice of anything else. When tliey or their principal fol- lowera have mentioned the tariff. they have catalogued It In Ita rela tlon to depression or recovery. When they have talked of farm relief, or labor, or the budget, or currency, or the soldier bonus, or even prohi bition, they have put all of these things against the background of the one central question of economic restoration, nils theme' haa been the burden of Mr. Roosevelt's apeechea on nis present mid-western and southern swing. He apoke of beer aa a rev enue source. He repeated hi prev ious atatement on the bonua dur ing discussion of budget balanc ing. The administration's course with rospoct to the depression will be the burden of Mr. Hoover's speech to morrow night at Detroit, for which he leaves the capital tonight. It will be the burden of hla shorter talks tomorrow aa he crosses West Virginia and Ohio. A host of other speakers, Including many of the most distinguished men In the country, now are debating the same subject from coast to coast. The Issue has taken different form In different localities, but In Ita er. sentlal character It Is the same ev erywhere. During the short time lenwiraoi jriaoHnn rtav Is two weeks from next Tuesday almost every precinct will hear this Issue dlscusaea wnn an Intensity seldom exceeded In American history.
