Mining Interests Most Important.
says "Prospector"

Editor Rogue River Courier: The

tary of the Grants Pass Board of
Trade, circular TO be signed by the
miners Of Althouse, Josephine county,
protesting against the action of the
Department at Washington, d. G.
making a Forest Reserve Of any part
Of Southern Oregon as put forth in
the Newspapers. But the board of
trade seems TO advocate the timber
interest and the mill mans right over
all others, forgetting that the many
timber entries already made and
which we see advertised in the
county papers have been made by peo-
pie brought here mostly from the east
and that too, most likely by some one
or company Of men who wish TO play
the old hogging game, such as has
been done in so many other states by
keeping up thousands of acres of tim.
Der land for their own uee and bene-
tit. the poor foolish locator receiving
from one to three hundred dollars for
what will return to the big investor
800, 600, but this is not the end of the
injury by any means. For the past %
years ! have told the Courier OF the
riches which lay hidden in the rocky
hills of Josephine. Suppose you
permit those timber locators to per.
feet their titles on the thousands of
acres Of land for its timber and stone.
what will become of your hundreds of
miners: Once all the land is sold to
these timber-monopolies they not only
gobble our timber but they would also
own all the mineral deposits in the
county. The reserved country should
be kept by the government for the
prospector and gold seeker. Every
day now, brings to light new evidence
Of mineral wealth in the shape Of
gold, copper or some other precious
metal to work which, the very tim
Der growing on the hills is, and will
be, needed, in plenty. / say, and so
says every miner who knows anything
of under ground workings Keep the
timber for the use Of the mines for if
not needed today it will surely be
needed bye and bye, for without
timber, miner cannot work.
Those rock ribbed mountains ex.
tending from the Applegate to the
Coast range from east to west, will at
no distant day prove source of un-
told wealth. They will furnish re.
munerative labor for thousands Of
hardy miners who with their families
will Lind snug little homes in the lit
tie glades and valleys which, with
the assistance Of the springs which
are found in almost every valley will
be made to bloom and blossom like a
small Eden. Prospeetor.

PROTECTION FOR MINES A MAP OF CRATER LAKE
Ella borate Delineation OF Ore
CONS Wonderful Lake.

Since the Southern Pacific railroad
has been organizing excursions TO
Crater Lake, Oregon, the demand for
a map of the region has greatly in
creased, and to meet this demand, the
Crater Lake special map, prepared by
the United States Geological Survey,
has been brought up to date and ex-
tended as to represent the whole of
the Crater Lake National Park. on
the scale of one mile to an inch. The
map is now ready for distribution.
The elevations and depressions are
shown by contours representing YER
teal intervals of 100 feet To denote
the very steep inner slope of the great
depression containing the lake. the
contours are crowded close together /;
to show the outer gentler slope, they
are far apart.
The soundings OF the lake are
marked on the map, and its greatest
depth, nearly 1000 feet, makes it the
deepest fresh water lake in the United
States
On the back of the map is a descrip-
tion by Mr.. j. S. Diller of the geo
logical features and history of Mount
Mazama, including the eruption Of
its lava flows and pumice, its glacia-
tion, and its final engulfment, which
produced the great caldera, on the
bottom of which arose small vol
canic one that now forms Wizard
Island, i'll the lake. Three excellent
views are given; one, of the western
part of the rim, from photograph
by Mr.. Burton L. cunningham, Of
Ashland; another shows Mount Maza-
ma restored; and the third is a view
of model which makes the depres-
sion containing the lake yery-impress-
i've. The price Of the map is five cents.
A peculiar railroad accident occurred

track curved up like a huge caterpil-

A VICIOUS STREET FIGHT
One Contestant May be Seriously
Injured

Several fights occurred in town
Saturday and in one case both parties
may consider themselves fortunate if
the results are not serious. The fray
occurred between Hank" Williams
aud Rubo Pankey. The trouble
started In the Corner saloon, whore
Pankey had been mixed up in a fight
earlier in the day. He had been
drinking considerably and was quar-
relsome and abusive under the in
fuence of the liquor Williams aud
Pankoy, it seems, had agreed to go
across the river and fight it out
Pankcy at this time was carrying a
good deal Of liquor and was unsteady
on his feet Several others were with
the party, among them Pankey's
brother They went down Sixth
street about three blocks when by
some word or action the trouble was
prccipitatod there. Williams struck
Pankcy, knocking him down, and
kicked him in the head, cutting and
bruising his scalp in "a fearful manner
It is claimed that Williams also was
struck from behind by one Of Pankey :
adhcronts Williams was arrested and
has been released on bail pending
his trial which will be held Thurs
day At last accounts, Pankey was
making a good progress toward recov-
cry and it is probable that his skull is
not fractured as was at first feared.

cling from Portland 10 the east He

succeeded partially in tracing the
ticket. The elder Mr. Mock left Port

Travelled as far as Huntington, though
there are some reasons for believing
that he left the train west Of Hunting
ton. The man who cleans cars at
Huntington found the elder Mr. Mock's
oyercoat and yaliso in the smoking
car. It seems most likely that he did
not reach Huntington, though it is
possible that he might have gotten
farther From Huntington, there is
no evidence Of the ticket having been
used and il is certain that he did not
pass Pocatello. An Mock went ns
far east as the latter place in his
search and friend went as far ns salt
Lake City. The railroad people have
sent out tracers to recover the yalisc
aud oyercoat. A. II. Mock has offered

which will lead to the discovery Of his
