Competition may be the life of trade, but if one old Jacksonville character has hla way, it will be the death of the prldt for Yrekans, who laat year emulated the southern Ore gon clty'a Oold Rush Jubilee. The man in question, popularity known aa Bad Eye Pete, haa vowed, after cleaning hla frontier Colta, that local talent will either outdo the Yrekana or else auffer Vie conae- quencea. "We don t aim to let no Callfomy fellers git ahead of ua in these here pioneer celebrations," grumbled Bad Eye yesterday aa he spurred several members of the chamber of commerce to action. It seema that Yreka, after visiting the Jacksonville Jubilee last summer, sort of copied the Idea and threw a three-day shindig In the California city. Bad Eye smarted only where a loytil Jacksonvtlllan could smart In hla wounded pride. He haa de cided that his home town will either show the Yrekana a thing or two about early days and how to recreate them, or be will know the reason why. Pete got so het up about It that yesterday he wrote a communication to a YVeka newspaper telling them Just what waa on his mind. Rather Illiterate, but nevertheless pungent with meaning, hla letter warned Yreka that Jacksonville la no western town to be tampered with and that If that city will Just drop up to tjacKSonviiie August iw-i.no uig any It will be given a course in .ele mentary entertainment. Bad Eye ad' ded. in his letter, that Mwe are mak ing ample pervlslon to accommodate Yrekana aa we are tralnln a bunch of ctmperoneB fer tenderfeet." The Jubilee, the second annual af fair for -Oregon's first gold camp, will be held Saturday, August 19, this year, with an even greater ar ray of featyhera and unique novelties than ever. Bad Eye Pete will be re membered by visitors last year bj one of the bartenders who wore a watch -fob nugget the size of a large man'a first and who shot it out with hla "perd" for a cameraman In the Marble Corner saloon. Whiskers, muBzle-loader and all, he plans to be "hangln' around ter see that ev ery thing Is oke" this year when the hectic, hilarious days of a pioneer minin? camp are recreated for a brief 34 hours. Pete, concluding his letter, which really waa a Journalistic chip on hie shoulder, Invited any Yrekan to stand up for his town with the ad monishment, "I'll make 'lm think he'a bin sleepln' on pen points and swlmmin' In Ink." and then left for the hills, where he indulges in target practice and mining.
