ASHLAND FAILS TO GET SEWERS

AObBAND AllSo ~ ObA Sh HA'S
Ashland is having all kinds Of ex-
perienoes good and bad. in municipal
affairs. A successful injunction suit
put an end to $40, 900 sewer system
that the city made beginning on last
fall. A new start was recently made
on 10000 section TO the oity's proposed
sewer system and now that is to be
hung.up by an injunction instituted
by II of the affected property owners
While Ashland's efforts to lessen
the liability to typhoid fever has ac'
complished but little. the city's en-
deayor to better its light aud water
systems has met with better success.
At an election held some time since
the vote was almost unanimous, only
nine against, for the issuance OF
$50, 600 Of bonds with which to pur-
chase additional water, power and
and rights for the city's water system
on Ash land creek. Tuesday another
special election was held to authorize
the issuance OF $50, ZOO in bonds,
drawing AZ per cent interest to
raise funds with which to install q
municipal electric plant, which car
ried by big majority. there being
bat 81 votes against the proposition.
Asbland's expensive experience in
making sewer assessments should tend
to make the authorities Of Grants
Pass the more cautious in their man

proposed Second street and Seventh

HOP GROWERS
SHY OF UNION
Discuss Kiebs Proposition But
Only Few Accept it-No
Local Union.

The adjourned meeting of Rogue
River Valley hop grows at the
Courier office was fairly well attended
More than half of the hop acreage in
the Valley was represented, the grow
ers attending being John Ranzau and
Mrs. Ranzau, G. G. English and Mrs.
English, James Flowers, j. b. Bur.

S. NJ. Weston, II. B. AlversUn. J. L.
Weidman, A.E. Holloway, W. Patton,
A. Implicit. August Rehkopf, Chas.
johnson, b. W. Baldwin, G. Scaefers
The proposition, which had been
submitted at the meeting the week
previous by Conrad Krebs, of Salem,
for plan to pool the hop sales in Or
egon, was fully discussed A number
of grow ers signed the agreement pre-
pared by Mr.. KIebs, which provides
that when the owners of 60 per cent of
the hop acreage in Oregon shall have
signed this agreement then it
shall be binding on all the signers to
turn their hops over to the state
union, that is to BE- oragnized of these
growers agreeing to this compact.
The chief objection that many Of
the grow ers had to joining tins pool
was that they felt it would prevent
their getting money advanced on their
| crop to meet picking and other ex.
pcnse, they doubling that banks would
advance money on the certificates that
they would receive for their hops
from the union, to hold until the hops
were sold and the cash realized.
The plan of organizing local
Rogue River Valley union was also
discussed 1t was favored by some of
the growers but the majority either
opposed it or were Indifferent. There
is little likelihood that the Rogue
River Valley hop growers will join
the state pool or form a local union,
but will be content to take whatever
price is left them for their hops
after each of the half dozen deal.
ers, through whose possession the hops
will have passed in reaching the
brewer, will have taken liberal com.
mission.
With hops yet at 20 cents, which
will yield a fair profit to the grower,
and with the natural conservatism of
the average farmer, there is little prob
ability that the hop growers will form
a union this year to protect themselves
from the extortation of the dealer s
combine. Next year when hops are
down to 10 cents and growers have to
mortgage their land to secure picking
money they will take more interest in
= union and one will be likely formed
in Oregon. No class of farmers are
more the victims Of bear and bull mar
ket movements by dealers combines
than are hop growers, yet hop gov
ers union is not known The fruit
growers have long since demonstrated
that through a union is the only profit
able way to market their fruit, while
the sheep and goat men are nealy all
in big pools TO market their wool and
mohair. Other farm interests are find
ing that there is elf.proteCtion in
unions aud the hol linen will see the
point some day.
