CHINESE MINERS PLAY ROLE IN EARLY HISTORY THERE WERE CHINESE MINING IN THE AREA (AT CHINA FLATS LOCATED ABOUT TWELVE MILES SOUTH OF POWERS) WHEN THE SETTLERS CAME, AND THESE MINERS BOUGHT THEIR SUPPLIES FROM THE SETTLERS. HOWEVER, IT IS RECORDED THAT THEY DIDN'T GET ALONG NEARLY AS WELL AS ANTICIPATED. MOST OF THE INDIANS HAD LEFT THE AREA BEFORE THE CHINESE CAME. THE FEW INDIANS THAT WERE LEFT APPEARED TO BE PEACEFUL AND QUIET. THE SETTLERS WERE MORE AFRAID OF THE CHINESE THAN THE INDIANS. IN 1884 OR 1887 (CONTROVERSIAL) THE SETTLERS DECIDED THEY COULD GET ALONG WITHOUT THE CHINESE, WHO WERE VERY SUPERSTITIOUS, MAKING IT AN EASY TASK FOR THE SETTLERS TO SCARE THEM OUT. THIS IS LOOKING NORTH FROM THE SIDEWALK IN FRONT OF THE PRESENT POWERS TAVERN AND CAFE. 42 POWERS HISTORY MAIN STREET OF POWERS AS IT LOOKS TODAY.

THE COUNTRY WAS FULL OF BEARS AND OTHER WILD ANIMALS WHICH OFFERS MANY INTERESTING FIRE-SIDE STORIES OF THE SETTLERS' EXPERIENCES. THE FIRST SCHOOL BUILDING IN THE AREA WAS ON THE TOM HAYES RANCH (LOCATED NEAR WHERE HALEY SHOPS NOW STANDS). THE FIRST SCHOOL STARTED IN NOVEMBER, 1881, WITH T. C. LAND THE FIRST TEACHER.

POWERS OPENED ITS FOOTBALL SEASON WITH THEIR FIRST FOUR GAMES NON-LEAGUE, BUT STILL VERY IMPORTANT GAMES. THE CRUISERS FIRST ENCOUNTERED THE CAMAS VALLEY HORNETS ON OUR HOME FIELD AND WON EASILY 48-6. AFTER A BIG WIN OVER CAMAS VALLEY THE CRUISERS TRAVELED TO BUTTE FALLS TO TAKE ON THE LOGGERS. THE FIRST HALF WAS VERY CLOSE; AT THE HALF-TIME BUZZER THE CRUISERS LED 14-6, BUT THE CRUISERS PROVED TO BE TOO MUCH FOR THE LOGGERS AS WE OUT-SCORED THEM 30-0 IN THE SECOND HALF. THE SECOND HALF COMEBACK WAS MADE POSSIBLE BY A TOUGH CRUISER DEFENSE LED BY JOHN BUSHNELL. THE FINAL SCORE WAS 44-6 IN FAVOR OF THE CRUISERS. POWERS HAD HIGH HOPES OF BEATING THE LEAGUE FAVORITE, PROSPECT, IN THEIR NEXT CONTEST AND ALMOST ACHIEVED THIER GOAL WHEN PAUL SHORB CARRIED THE BALL FIVE YARDS FOR A TOUCHDOWN THAT TIED THE GAME 14-14 LATE IN THE SECOND QUARTER, BUT ON THE FOLLOWING KICKOFF A PROSPECT PLAYER RAN THE BALL BACK FOR A TOUCHDOWN THAT PUT THEM AHEAD 22-14, WHICH WAS THE FINAL SCORE. DAYS CREEK WAS THE NEXT TEAM TO FALL TO THE CRUISER MACHINE, AS WE CRUSHED THE WOLVES 70-8. THIS WAS THE TEAM’S FINAL NON-LEAGUE GAME. THEIR NON-LEAGUE WIN-LOSS RECORD WAS 3-1 .

CAMAS VALLEY WAS THE NEXT VICTIM OF THE CRUISERS, AN EXCITING FIRST HALF WHEN THE CRUISERS SCORED ONLY ONCE COMING IN THE SECOND QUARTER. AT THE HALF THE SCORE WAS 6-0. COMING OUT IN THE SECOND HALF THE CRUISERS SHOWED THEIR POWER, SCORING TWICE IN THE THIRD, AND ONCE IN THE FOURTH. DAYS CREEK CAME NEXT, WHICH WAS HOMECOMING. THIS WAS AN EASY WIN, 60-6. THE CRUISERS TRAVELED TO PROSPECT WITH HOPES OF A WIN ON OCTOBER 31. IF THEY BEAT PROSPECT, AND PAISLEY THE FOLLOWING WEEKEND, IT WOULD MEAN A SURE SEAT IN THE STATE PLAYOFFS. THE CRUISERS LOST TO PROSPECT, HOWEVER, WHICH BLEW THEIR CHANCE FOR A STATE PLAYOFF. THE CRUISERS WENT TO PAISLEY AND TOOK THEIR LOSS OUT ON THE BRONCOS. THE CRUISERS DOMINATED THE GAME, LED BY SENIOR HALFBACK GUY SHORB, WITH AN AMAZING 316 YARDS RUSHING ON 35 CARRIES.

POWERS LETS EMPLOYEES OWN HOMES THE FIRST BUSINESS BUILDINGS WERE BUILT IN NORTH POWERS, WHICH IS NOW STRICTLY RESIDENTIAL. AFTER THE RAILROAD WAS FINISHED IN THE FALL OF 1914, THE SMITH- POWERS LOGGING COMPANY WAS ABLE TO DISCONTINUE ITS PRACTICE OF TAKING THEIR LOGS DOWN RIVER. THIS SAME YEAR A.H. POWERS CARRIED OUT A SCHEME FOR A TOWN WHICH GAVE THE WORKING MAN A CHANCE TO OWN HIS OWN HOME. THIS IDEA WAS DIFFERENT FROM MOST OF THE COM- PANIES THAT BUILT HOUSES AND RENTED THEM TO THEIR WORKERS. POWERS PUR- CHASED THE TOWNSITE FROM WAGNER AND SOLD IT IN LOTS TO HIS EMPLOYEES ON AN ALMOST NO-PROFIT BASIS. HE IS ALSO KNOWN TO HAVE MADE LAND DONATIONS INCLUDING A SITE TO BUILD A SCHOOL.
