HOP GROWERS TO
FORM A UNION
r ogue River Growers to Meet
in Grants Pass. Satur-
day. July I

The hopgrowers of Oregon, having
become convinced that tire present de-
cline of hops to 90 cents from 30 cents
of last winter is due to condition
among the dealers, now propose to
meet this combine with union of
their own, aud general movement is
on in all the hop districts to form
local unions, each to De post of
state union.
With this end in view the Rogue
River Valley hopgrowers will hold u
meeting in Grants Pass this Saturday
at O'Clock p. m. in the Opera
House. The meeting will be ad.
dressed by Conrad Krebs of Salem.
Mr.. Krebs is at the head of the move
ment to organize an Oregon hop
growers union and ne is holding meet
ings in al the hopgrowing districts
of the state, for this purpose. Though
the notice for the meeting has been
short yet it is expected that every
grove in the Valley will be present
and that union will be organized.
Hopbuyers have their unions and the
growers will have to organize too, or
take the consequences of low prices,
which the dealers try to force on
them, while at the same time putting
the price up on hops to the brewers

still death in all instances is better
than dishonor. War canuot be a
greater curse than long bondage OF
tyranny and oppression laid upon a
great people. This war in the far
East will have a wider and more
beneficial result to the Russian peo-
pie than the average man can forsee.
The Viceroy of Canton has insti-
tuted sterrible reign of terror amongst
bis people. He is decapitating
Thousands of people every month for
the slightest offense. The day l was
in that city saw 10 poor devils be-
ing carried through the streets to the
execution ground where their heads
would be cut off without any cere-
moDy. The people are in terror |;
robbery. piracy and crime have in
creased to such an extent about
Canton and ON the West River, that
ones life is constantly in danger.
The Delta of the Canton River ap-
pears to be the happy hunting ground
of all the criminal classes in China.
In time of poverty or famine 1t is
the rendezvous of the most desperate
dregs of the Chinese race. And these
outcasts of society, whose heads are
at premium, find with the pirate
bands of South China safe and
profitable asylum. The Imperial
troops never molest these bandits,
for they are always well armed and
desperate characters, who will fight
like demons when attacked. Once
in great while one of the leaders is
captured, and it amounts to nothing
for he is soon released and the official
is richer in pocket.

NORMAL BOARD
HOLDS MEETING
Re-elect Former Board Who
Decide TO Continue
the School

At the annual meeting of the board
of regents of the Southern Oregon
State Normal School held in Ash
land last week. election of officers for
the ensuing year was had. The
board reelected the following officers;
II. O. Kinney, Grants Pass, presi-
dent; W. l. Vawter, Medford, vice.
president; q. II. Thomas, Ashland,
secretary; Il. V. Carter Ashland.
treasurer, aud Il. II. Carter, II. p.
Neil and II. G. Kinney. executive
committee. John o. Booth and W. l.
Nawter were elected the auditing
committee.
Most of the time was taken
up in the matter Of the manage
ment of the school as RESULT Of the
holding up of the general appropria-
tion bill which also carries the nor
NAL school appropriations. The
funds carried in the bill not being
available, the exact manner of getting
at the matter of their management
took some time to work out.
The board recommended the re-
election of the present faculty and
delegated to the executive committee
the authority to continue the school
aud make such arrangements as could
bo made toward securing finances
pending the release of the general ap-
preparation bill or the meeting OF the
legislature.
Both Secretary Dunbar and Supt.
Ackerman have no doubt but that
the Legislature will eventually pay
the bill of running these schools and
also are of the opinion that interest
may be allowed by the Legislature.
Secretary Of State Dunbar says the
sentiment in favor Of the general APP
preparation bill being carried by the
popular vote is becoming stronger
every day as consequence of the
people finding out that the needs Of
these institutions are pressing and
that there can be no saving made In
the defeat of the measure, and that
delay only means an increased bill of
expense.

BLACK SAND
SAMPLES WANTED
BY u. s. Geological Survey Ex-
perrin ent Station at Lewis
and Clark Fair.

An experimental plant, for testing
black sand for values in platinum.
gold and other metals, is being in
stalled at the Lewis and CLARK fair by
the United States geological survey
bureau. The tests will be made free
of charge and miners are asked to
send samples, which should be ad-
dressed to the Director, U. S. Geo
logical Survey Experiment Station.
Lewis and CLARK Fair.
Nearly every placer mine in South
ern Oregon black sand is found in
more or less quantities and not know
ing whether it contains platinum or
other valuable metals many miners
have allowed the sand to run of
with the tailings. At q few mines
systematic effort has been made to
separate the platinum from the black
sand and in some instances with
profitable results.
There is every indication that
Southern Oregon is quite rich in
platinum and when once all the
miners learn how to save it this dis
trict will become one Of the big pro-
duoers of this valuable metal The
demand for platinum in electrical and
other uses is increasing rapidly in
recent years, and as consequence
the price for the metal is advancing
and it is now quoted at about S2l an
ounce The government reports show
that for the year 1904, there we're mined
in all the United States ll0 ounces of
platinum. 1t is quite certain that the
amount for 1905 will be more than
200 ounces, for Josephine connty alone
will produced 30 or more ounces this
