Bad Man of Jacksonville
Takes Personal Interest
In Return Pioneer Days
Bj Leonard Hall.
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.

The Contest Board of the

Standard Gasoline
unsurpassed
in SPEED
Here is the AAA Report. Read V:"This is to certify that in the series of speed
tests in which Standard Gasoline and six other strictly non-premium motor fuels,
considered to be leading brands, were individually tested for maximum speed in two
popular makes of cars, we find Standard Gasoline unsurpassed for speed.
The cars selected for these tests were a six-cylinder stock car in the seventy-five-mile-an-!iour
'class and an eight-cylinderstock car in the eighty-mile-an-hour class.
. The method used was as follows:
To fully depress the throttle, permit the car to attain its maximum speed before
contacting the timing device, and running over the course selected under full throttle.
Each of the seven fueis tested was purchased by our representative in the open
market from regular consumer outlets and was identifiable during the tests by code
name known only to us.
All tests were conducted by us under carefully controlled conditions of operation
in accordance with tha rules and policies of the Contest Board of the American
Automobile Association.
This statement is based on data developed by and on file with the AAA Contest
Board."
