RIPE STRAW BERRIES
ALL SUMMER
williams Creek Grower Supplies
Grants Pass Market With Fine
Berries Fruit Land Cheap.

Il. N. Proyolt, well known fruit
raiser and miner of the Williams
creek disrtict, was in Grants Pass
Monday with load of strawberries,
raspberries and other fruit. AS the
ordinary strawberry has been out of
the market for some weeks Mr. Pro.
volt is able to get good prices for his
berries, which are of the Oregon
Evergreen variety. These berries,
when on rich loan and given plenty
Of irrigation, will bear continuously
all summer and until well along into
the fall.
Mr.. Provolt owns fine placer tract,
but he has bonded that to dredger
company and if they take it, he will
devote his entire attention to fruit
raising, as he thinks 1t is less un'
certain In returns than gold mining
and much more profitable than is the
average gold mine. Mr.. Provolt IL a
strong advocate of the proposed fruit
growers union and he will be sure to
bo present at the fruit growers meet
ing that is to be held at the Courier
Office in Grants Pass this Saturday
afternoon. In union Mr.. Proyolt
sees the solution of the problem Of
profitably marketing the fruit of
Josephine county ana he thinks every
grower should join the union. with
the growers getting the prices that
the market will afford and freed
from the payment Of big profits to
commission men, and by having
shipments made In car lots, Mr.. Pro.
volt is of the opinion that the time
will soon come when the fruit crop Of
josephine county will exceed In value
the output of all its gold mines
In the Williams and Applegate sec
tions are thousands of acres of fine
apple, pear, peach, grape and berry
land that is yet to brush and that can
be purchased at very low price.
When this land is put into cultivation
that section will become one Of the
largest ana best fruit districts OF
Southern Oregon Mr.. Provolt says
the lack of good, macadamized road
to Grants Pass, which is their market
ing point, Is the greatest need for the
Williams district and such road
would aid very greatly IN the rapid
settlement and development Of that
part OF the county. Mr.. Pfoyolt de-
clares that the settlers Of his section
feel that they have not received the
recognition frcm the county court that
they are entitled to, as one Of the
largest body of taxpayers IN the
county. They contend that the
county neglects their roads and putt
the bulk Of the road funds on ;h,
Kefby road aud other roads Of M
greater importance than is the Ap

' he estimates of the TaLana gold

The estimates of the Tarana gold production for the year have been rowing since the work on the spring cleanup has gotten well un- der way.
 Letters and telegrams from Fair hanks say the cleanup will be larger than it was hoped for. They now place the figure for the years production al $6,0O0,O00 instead of s5,OOO,000 as was done before the sluicing begun.
 IL is said that while money was scarce in the Panama cities oi Fair hanks and Cinema throughout the winter, both towns are now over run with gold dust.
 More accurate reports, however, wiil be forthcoming in a short time:

a Republic Possible

Inasmuch as King Oscar refuses
to appoint a Swedish prince to
the throne of Norway. and it is
said that the king of Denmark will
not permit a Danish prince to be
named for the position, there is
talk Of calling a national conven-
ton which will establish a repub.
lie. If Norway is to become an
independent nation without any
union with Sweden, the sensible
thing for its people to do would
apparently be to establish a re-
publican form Of government.
Their genius and institutions are
all adapted to this end. Any
king that they might select, would
be but a mere figurehcad, and
they have among their own citi-
zens men who would make ADLER
and better qualified chief execu-
tives than any prince that might
be available.
Although King Oscar refuses to
recognize the action Of the stor-
thing as valid in dissolving the
union with Sweden and in de-
posing himself and it is said that
some Of the European powers will
also refuse to receive the minis
ters Of Norway, yet inasmuch as it

is understood that the Swedish
monarch will not resort to force.
the independence of Norway
appears to be assured. This be-
ing the case, it is difficult to un-
derstand why King Oscar precip.
ltated the crisis by refusing to
withdraw his veto or the stor-
things act providing for seperate
consular representation for Nor
way. The latter country will now
secure such representation, and
King Oscar has seemingly lost
his Norwegian crown and nothing
to show for it.
Should Norway become a re-
public she will join the company
of Switzerland and France in
Europe. and of the United States
America having a smaller form Of
government. Her area is 1874
13O square miles, or nearly three
times that Of Pennsylvania. Her
population December 3, 1900, was
2,239. $50, among whom were TO-
$40 Laps and 1907 Firms. There
has been some talk of Russia try
ing to seize the northern portion
of Norway, but such an act would
evoke the protest Of the world,
and at the present time it is not
likely to be perpetrated.
