PASSENGER FARES REDUCED.

One Of the benefits derived from
the visit of President Hartman of the
S. P. Co. to Oregon is the announce
ment made that passenger fares on the
railroads operated by the company in
Oregon which have heretofore been
at the rate Of 4 cents mile will be
reduced to 3 cents The announce
ment was made by the railroad presi-
dent to the newspapers when he said
1--WE shall reduce passenger fares on
all our lines in Oregon TO 3 cents a
mile. This will be done just as soon
as the machinery Of our traffic depart
ment can work, tomorrow for aught
know. This matter was brought up
to me ON this visit here and the decis.
ion to reduce rates has just been
reached.
The o. r. & N. Co. reduced III
rates something more than year ago,
at the time when the Northern Pacific
took the same action, 50 this decision
Of Mr. Hartman affects rates on the
Southern Paciific's Oregon lines only,
where fares are now 4 cents a mile.

G. G. PRESLEY.

@. @. Presley, candidate for county
treasurer, is not stranger to jose
phine county. His parents came to
this county in the early days and set
tied on farm few miles below
town, near the old Vannoy ferry,
where Clarence was born. Selling
the farm shortly after the railroad
was built, the family moved TO Jack
sonville for better educational advan-
tages. Receiving his education from
the Jacksonville schools and later
completing course in the Portland
Business College, Mr.. Presley is well
qualified for the office of county treas
urer.
He has been in his present position
with Wells Fargo Express Company
for the past four years. By strict at
tention to business he has made host
of friends Throughout the county.

RALMAY COLLIsION.

On Wednesday shortly before noon
a light engine in charge of Engineer
Riggs came in collision with the
south-bound through freight at a curve
u short distance this side of Tunnel
o. Mr.. Riggs saw the freight just in
time to stop his engine but not soon
enough to get IL reversed before the
shock came. Engineer Sampson, ON
the helper of the freight, could do
nothing to avert the collision, which,
owing to the fact that the freight was
running very slowly resulted only in
damaging the two engines, The train
crew escaped uninjured except for
some bruises and scratches. 1t seems
remarkable that there were no fatal
titles in wreck of this kind. The
two damaged engines are in the
Grants Pass yards today and are view
cd by crowds of interested people.

STRIKE AT PORTLAND ENDED.

Again the hum of building industry
is heard in Portland after six days OF
unwonted quiet. The sympathetic
strike of union men In 10 trades OF the
Building Trades Council is at an end
while the original cause OF the trouble
Is still present. The order for the men
to return to work was issued at meet
ing of the Building Trades Council
Monday evening. All tho strikers who
had gone out in sympathy returned to
work Tuesday except the plumbers.
Approximately so of these are locked
out, as their employers declined to take
them back, pending their acceptance Of
an agreement which will be pres ented
to them for their signatures.

HILARIOUS HOROS.
Respectfully,
j. A. Slower

Marshal Lockhart rounded up an
extra tough gang of hobos Tuesday.
They had been before the police judge
in the forenoon on the charge of
vagrancy, but had been dismissed.
They then proceeded to celebrate.
Procuring a keg of beer they went out
along the railroad track until they
thought they were outside the city
limits. But they were not, and Mar
shals Lockhart and Patrick, accom-
panied by large crowd Of spectators,
went out and gathered them in.
One of the gang objected to being
taken but was promptly knocked
down and then concluded to go along.
The police judge sentenced them to
work on the streets for 10 days for be-
ing drunk and disorderly.

BASE BALL PLANS.

Some of the base ball enthusiasts Of
Grants Pass are planning to give the
people of this town as great season
as we had last year. For this pur-
pose a few of the fans have formed
"a sort of company to manage the
affairs for the team. A considerable
sum of money has been expended in
putting the grounds in good shape
and building fence around them,
repairing the grand stand, and in Sc
curing the players. A majority Of
last years crack team will play here
again this year and it is expected
that all the players will be gotten to-
gether ready for practice by the mid
die of next month. All the money
that is made above expenses will %
directly to the team. The Grants
Pass boys made such a fine record last
year that the whole town became en-
thusiastic over base ball, and will
naturally be pleased to repeat the ex-
perience.

contented himself with having printed

cult court of appeals in the Noyes case,
Mr.. McCumber having withdrawn his

Mr. Stewart criticised Judge NOyes'
conduct of his Office. He said that he
had been familiar with the law prac-
tice in mining cases for more than
half century and that he knew the
policy Of the American people to pro-
tect the lOcatOrs of mines, whereas
Judge Noyes' Immediately upon his ar
rival at Nome, had appointed receivers
to take possession Of at least six new
mining claims, following these appoint
ments by others OF a similar charac-
ter. He declared there was no prece-
dent for a receiver for a placer mine
from which gold was being constantly
taken. If Judge NOyes was honest in
his action, then he was utterly incom-
petent.

HOW "CORKEY' KNOCKED OUT TWO THUGS
AND GAINED H0N0RS AS A HERO
-1Corkev" is a hero.

"Corkey" is a hero
Edwin Johanson, who glories in that
euphonious title, earned his spurs last
night. Moreover, his friends believe
that he earned d police star and baton
and are thinking seriously of petition
ing Chief Hilton to place him upon the
force to succeed the three officers who
were unceremonieusly decapitated on
Tuesday night. 1t all came about this
way:
Vaughn Paul, a Herald carrier of
tender years. was returning home from
the Theatre last night, when on Sec
ond South street, near Main. he was
seized by two rough appearing fellows
who frightened him into paying for
liquid refreshments for their consump-
ton. Not content with this, they
sought TO compel the youth TO pay for
their lodging for the night Rather
than hUmiliate himself by calling for
assistance, the proud Vaughn was
about to give up, when he spied
"Corkey' hurrying down the street
intent on finding a restaurant and eat
ing himself to death.
''COrkey," he cried. Here's two
guineas wot is trying to hold me up"

being knocked down and stepped on.
Right there is where the boy aVenger
got in his work There was a crash
like the sound of the lusty wOOdman's
AK falling upon an oak log, and the
first of the fellows landed with a
thump in the street. His partner came
after him. Neither stopped TO see what
had hit him, but started up the street
on the run, with "Corkey" in pursuit.
When the nearest officer arrived on
the scene the bold robbers had dis
appeared and "Corkey' was receiving
the congratulations Of the popuIace.
He had. indeed, saved Vaughn Paul.
the youthful carrier boy. and had
rightfully earned the title, "the boy
