GLASSES! 3j arms r Familiar Landmark In Old Stone Building Gone As Progress Wipes Out Link With Past; Bunch Town Butcher Shop Torn Down By EDITH McLEOD Almost as if ashamed of it, the last tangible, connecting link, be tween our modern city and the il lustrious, pioneer days of Linkvllle Is being wiped out in the destruc tion of the little 68-year-old stone building on the grounds of the new Veterans' Memorial Park. What a pity It had to fall rather than stand as a monument to our dead pio neers and the founding of our cityl . It was built only 18 years after George Nurse founded the city by Installing a ferry cross Link river in 1867 and in building the first small structures on the eastern bank, near where our present bridge is located. It was only 12 years after the Modoc War, Z. P. Moody was Governor of Oregon, and Orover Cleveland was Presi dent of the United States, An era of good times for this territory came in 1885, and the first church in town, the Presby terian church near the- corner of Pine and 3rd Streets, was built. It was dedicated in 1885, And it was in that same year that Judge G. W. Smith hired Louis Biehn to con struct the stone building (of native stone) in what was then known lo cally as Bunch Town that part of the village around the bridge and Conger Avenue. The name String Town was applied to the part of town scattered tram and to 8th streets. 384 souls made up the pop ulation of Linkville. ' ' The land upon which Judee Smith built was deeded to the State of Oregon, Feb. 26, 1872, from the U. S. Government, signed by (A Delano, secretary of state. It passed from the state of Oregon to George Nurse on Feb, 26, 1878, Other high points in the abstract of property are: dedicated to the town of Linkville, Aug. 27, 1881; from Nurse to William A. Wright, in 1881; Wright to Arthur D. Car rick, Sept. 1, 1881; from Carrick to Manning, Sept. 20, 1881; and from Manning to Judge George W, Smith; Smith to J. C. Rutenio in 1001; Rutenio to Thomas Hampton in 1010. ,..,-. A butcher shop first occupied the building.

As a butcher shop it continued until the disastrous, $50,000 fire of 1889 wiped out most of the business section. Only the stone building, and the bridge (which was saved by the one hand pump) were left stand ing. After this the building re mained vacant for a while. In 1892 another fire destroyed a section of the town and D. B. Worthington, publisher of the Morn ing Express (the second weekly newspaper of Linkville) was burned out. He moved into the stone building where he continued his paper under the name of Klam ath Falls Morning Express, Link ville having outgrown its childhood when it reached maturity that year by being chartered under the more sedate name of Klamath Falls. The highlight of Worthlngton's career here was the publication of his souvenir edition of Jan. 10, 1895, after which he sold the paper to Joseph G. Pierce and George J. Farnsworth. In the fall of 1894 the building survived another disastrous fire, and in the fall of 1901 Smith sold the building to J. .C, Hutenic, a young attorney who arrived from Salem In the spring of 1899 with his wfe and twin girls (Mrs. A. C. Yaden and the writer.) Dr. Reames now occupied the first floor, and Mr. Rutenio -the 1 second, floor, though later he moved downstairs. His tenure was around 9 or 10 years. In-1903 Dii George H. Mer ryman took over Dr. Reame6' prac tice and had -'his office there for about .a year ' and a half before opening the Star Drug Store with Dr. George Wright, at Main and 4th streets. - . - ' Dr. W. H. Boyd occupied part of the ' building' for a while, rent ing his dental, off ice froin Dr. Mer ryman. At that 'time the lot west of the building was vacant. The "Ankeny building" adjoined to the east; next came Dick Hammond's store, and adjoining that, on the corner , of Center street, was Harry VanValkenburg's Jewelry store and telegraph office he having tinker ed with the Morse code in his spare time until- he became efficient enough to open the first telegraph office in the this part of the coun try. Ky Taylor's barber shop oc cupied part of the floor space. Back of the stone building were the two substitutes for modern plumbing,, and back of them on the nearby shore of Lake Ewauna was Henry Jenkin's truck garden. The rich, black soil grew vegetables which could not be surpassed. Pos sibly the above mentioned "substi tutes" and others near by added further richness to the soil. In 1910 Mr. Rutenlc sold the building to Thomas Hampton for $1250. The property remained in the Hampton family for about 35 years. Sights strange to us of 1953, the old stone building has seen.

It could see the four horses stage coaches and their weary passengers as they stopped at the old Linkville Hotel a block down the street toward the r.lver.

Committee hearing for fur ther questioning on Elsenhower's M-polnt program lor revising me Taft-Hartley labor law. Lewis Raps Ike's NLRB Candidate By ROWLAND EVANS Jit. WASHINGTON (P) John L. Lew. is today denounced Albert C, Bee son. President Eisenhower's nom inee, ior tlie National Labor Rela tions Board, as a "selt-styied union buster" who "possesses an aston ishing bios' against labor. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers, wired all members of the Senate Labor committee, now considering the nomination: "It is inconceivable that any senator . . . who takes the time to read the record would in good conscience unleash-, with the power of government behind him, such a raging protagonist of the ex ploiter of labor in the nation. Meanwhile, the committee scnen uled a fourth meeting on the nom ination of Beeson. a San Jose, Calif,, businessman who would bring the five-man board to full strength. If approved by the committee and then by the Senate, Beeson would be the third Eisenhower ap pointee to take a seat on the NLRB thus giving the administration a clear majority. Beeson has told the committee he would approach his duties without bias. During close questioning by com mittee Democrats last Wednesday, Beeson said he thought the NLRB under former President Truman had administered the Taft-Hartley law to favor labor over manage ment. Chairman H. Alexander Smith (R-NJ) expressed confidence that Beeson will be approved by both the Labor Committee and the Sen ate, but a committee vote appeared unlikely today. Democrats have indicated they fear that Beeson might reflect the management point of view in board decisions. Lewis said in his wire that Bee son "admits to a prejudical favori tism toward employers and a vengeful attitude toward labor which borders on hysterical malig nancy, I protest the confirmation of the self-styled union-buster Bee son," -, i -: Most recently, Beeson has been industrial relations vice-president for the Food, Machinery and Chem ical Corp. of San Jose.

On Strike Issue Dead Mitchell, due half an hour later before the House Labor Commit tee, was to be followed at the Sen ate hearing by W. B. Barton, gen eral counsel of the XJ, S. chamber of commerce. Informed sources who asked not to be quoted by name said the administration has been doubtful all along that Congress would ap prove the strike vote recommenda tion. They said Eisenhower's cmet labor advisers now feel the pro posal would meet overpowering op position in ine oeiiaie. Barton said the Chamber feels Eisenhower's labor message to Congress had "a sincere ring and paves the way for needed changes" in the Taft-Hartley Act. However, he disclosed that the Chamber supports only about a half the President's recommenda tionsincluding a form of the strike vote proposal and "ques tions" others. Barton said the Chamber be lieves a strike vote should be taken prior to a walkout "and only after collective bargaining negotiations have reached an impasse." Elsenhower did not stipulate whether he thought the vote should come before or during a strike. However, a bill drafted at the White House and introduced by Chairman H. Alexander Smith B NJ) of the Senate Labor Commit tee provides for a vote after the strike has started. Mitchell said the vote should be taken before a strike, ' ..It I v ..it or '1 A Sensational Buyl .': 1 . Reg. 7.50 Sq. Yd. V Feb.
