French, of the Alturas Plain dealer, gives most excellent account of Railroad Dav in Lakeview, and in conclusion savs: "If anv in Lakeview went hungry on Sundav thev must have been well hidden. I have attended dinners, luncheons and banauets in a great many places on many festal occasions, but I when it comes to the genuine Western hospitality banuuet, combined with all ' the good things to eat in the eating line. I take off mv hat to the Ladies of Lakeview. We wish thev woulo give j such a banquet everv week and give us an invitation. "Modoc county was well represented at the celebration as was evidenced bv the fact that on the first train into Lakeview. out of about 125 passengers, fullv 105 were from Modoc. In fact had it been summer instead of winter the first train would scarcely have held the crowd of Modoo Boosters who would have gone to join hands with Lakeview in the grand celebration. "One of the most enjovable parts of the entertainments was the music rendered bv the Lakeview Band. The bova certainly did their parts toward making the celebration the grand "suc cess it was. Thev plaved morning, noon and night and were alwavs readv to plav one more selection, or a dozen if bv so doing thev could add pleasure to their visitors. "The people of Lake county. Ore gon, mav well be proud of their Rail road Dav. There was not a thing to mar the perfect harmony of the occa sion. There was absolutely no dis order, rowdvism- or disturbance and good fellowship reigned supreme. "Now that Lakeview and Alturas are linked with "Bonds of Steel" we trust tbst the good feeling which al ready exists will be intensified, and that the two towns will work in monv for the development and gression of this northern country. "In conclusion the people of Modoc, through the medium of the Plaindealer. send congratulations to Lakeview w ith many thanks for vour splendid hos pitality and entertainmeit. D. V. KUYKENDALL AGAIN IN Till! FIELD Prosecuting Attorney An nouncet Candidacy for Second Term har- pro- Pleasing Quarters The county jail is empty of occa pnts. and has been in that condition for almost three months. The sign which greets the pssserbv on the south side of the court bouse. "No talking through these windows" has no signi ficance now and might as well be taken down. It is a good jail. too. but it might as well be rented out bv the county, to bring in some revenue. The jail room is about 25x35 feet in dimensions, and being steam heated would ordinarily be worth at least $15 a month, as rooms rent in the town. The people of the county are so law abiding that the county seldom has anv use for the room in which to consign law-breakers. It is located in the bnsement storv of the court house, and has a sightly view from its windows on the south and west fronts, of the beautiful courtyard and residences opposite, and is rcallv an attractive place, for persons who have no aver sion to living in a jail. Klamath Chronicle: Prosecuting Attorney 1). V. Kuvkendall has form ally announced his candidacy tor re nomination to the office of district at torney of Klamath and Lake counties, which he has already occupied for three years and a half. Mr. Kuvkendall was elected in 1908. defeating W. J. Moore of Lakeview. democrat. During that period. Mr. Kuvkendall has handle.! an enormous volume of criminal cases in both counties. There have been sev eral appeals irom convictions secur ed bv him. but pot a single instsnce was a reversal secured. Mr. Kuvkendall has all the oualities of a brilliant prosecutor. In the first place be ia a leaned lawyer ard possesses the aualitv. so aotlv lauded, in the phrase, "the infinite capacity for taking pains." He is a skillful and penetrating cross examiner and readily grasps the salient features of his case, and as auicklv detects the pregnable points in the armor of his adversary. His methods of msrshalling his testi mony and vividly placing it before a jury, has been recoenil, ever since he became prosecuting attorney, and has won the admiration of lawyers and iuri8ts. whose experience and disin terestedness in forming and conceding merit where merit is due. are acknow ledged. Mr. Kuvkendall possesses other oualities which everv prosecuting attorney should be endowed with, as an eagerness to undertake the relent less pursuit of evil doers and the calm firmness to lav bare wrong doing in all its nakedness. These aggressive chara cteristics of the incumbent prosecuting sttornev have contributed, in a large measure, to make this and Lake counties wsrm places for violation of the law and have helped to embrace. in a large measure, the comparative immunity from serious crime, which this section now enjovs. EIRE DEPARTMENT 18 BADLY NEEDED Town Entitled to Better Protection From Pro spective Diazes New Pine Creek Items A Lakeview Girl's Success fbe many friends of Mrs. J.

That the clt lions of Laktvlew are possessed of a commendable amount of public spirit or clvie pride has been abundantly proven on too many occa sions to leave anv doubt on the mind of any observer of events in this town. Its people take nrida in their fine common schools, tneir spienuin nnrn school building, their public institu tions, in putting the streets in good condition, in their water works and their Bne drinking watir. and in mat ters tending to promote the growth ami beautifying of the eitv. and in its economic and honest management. But there Is one matter that has been seemingly entirely forgotten or neg lected-and that is the organisation cf an efficient and workable Fire Depart ment Thia wss made painfully evi dent at the unfortunate Are which oc curred Saturday evening. Here was an occasion which demon strated that there was an absence of systematic endeavor. Young men were easily found who possessed public spirit and foresight enough to man the hoaecarts and pull them for a auarter of a mile through the slush and snowy streets to the' scene of de vastation, and to work like Trojans after thev got there until the last bit of flame was subdued ; but everv one present could see that what was done was "bv main strength and awkward? ness." rather than bv real systems' ic effort that sntyhing worth while was accomplished. It ia unnecessary to ssv that this condition of affairs ought not to con tinue for dsv. What seems to te re quired in a proper anoreciation of that fact that to be an active fireman la a hazardous and self-sacrificing occupa tion fur anv citizen: but it is absolutely necessary for the safety or security of everv citv or town thst men be found wno sre willing to give of their time and talents, and often to sacrifice their health and sometimes their lives, thst the publio safety mav be assured from the ravages of the fire fiend. And those who do this should be fittingly rewarded not necessarily in the form of monev. but in auch a manner as that thev mav feel that their labors are properlv appreciated bv their tal low citizens and the property owners in general. Above all there should be a fire chief whose orders must be im plicitly obeyed. If a fire breaks out it is slwsvs a time of excitement, and a cool head ia at that moment worth a hundred of those who are carried awav bv ner vous agitation of the moment. He must be able to inspire those who set under him with confidence and the j snirit of loval aupport in carrying out his plana and orders. . Where prop erty and oftentimes life is at stske the h re man should be inspired with the spirit that in times of emergency makes heroes of men. To organize an efficient department a company ought to be organized for the manning of each hoserart. The men ought to be furnished uniforms and auch appliances as are needed. They should be exempted from jury duty, and be given consideration fitting to the sacrifices thev make for the public welfare. Thev should be encouraged in everv wsv possible to perfect themselves in the manipula tion of the fire anoaratus. for the ex pert coupling of hose and for taking care of the fire apparatus. If these things are not done, sooner or later we mav wish thev had been done. NEVER PUT OFF UNTIL TOMORROW WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY!
