ONLY MILL IN OREGON
RUN BY ELECTRICITY
Sawmill and all Mining Machin
cry at Opp Mine Operated
by Cheap Power.

Charles Dunford, operating the
truck and express wagons in Jackson
vile, came to Grants Pass on the Sun
day night train to accompany his
mother in law, Mrs. Louisa Trefrer,
to her home in this city. Mrs
rrefren had spent the past two
months in Jacksonville with her
daughters, Mrs. Dunford and Mrs
Thrasher. She was accompanied by
her granddaughter, Miss Viola Dun.
ford, who will spend week or two
in Grants Pass.
MI. Dunford stated that business in
all lines was very good this Winter
in Jacksonville. The town is being
greatly benefited by the revival of
mining on jackson creek and by the
extensive mining industry in the APP
plegate Valley. AT the opp / y miles
west of Jacksonville, 60 men are now
employed aud it is expected that more
will be Iut on in the Spring.
The work of installing big air
compressor aud power drill air pipes
was completed last week and the com.
pressor as to be started this Monday
when power drills will supercede the
hand drills heretofore used in the
mine. A largo force on day aud
night shifts are developing the mine
and getting out reserve supply OF
ore in the big bins at the mill. The
ore is all moved on tram cars operated
by gravity, the mill being situated on
Jack son creek at the foot Of the hill
into which the tunnels extend on the
veins. A sawmill is being operated
in large body of timber the Company
has on the 240 acre tract on which the
mine is located. The lumber is used
for building purposes aud all the tim
Der for the mine is also sawed This
mill has the distinction of being the
only sawmIll on the Pacific Coast
that is run by electricity. IL is found
to be quite an economical power as
the mill can be quickly moved when
the timber is cut out from the inn
mediate vicinity, thereby making a
big saving in the expense Of logging.
Electric power, which is supplied by
the Condor Company from their Gold
Ray station on Rogue river ~ miles
from Jacksonville, is used to operate
the stamps, crusher. compressor and
all other machinery at the Opp mine.
Ii is the plan Of the Comp my to en-.
large the mill from 10 to 20 stamps.
probably early this Spring, or soon al
the mine is more fully developed.
Mr. Dunford stated there Is much
development work being done ON a
number of other promising veins on
Jack son creek and there IL good
prospect Of one or more quartz mills
being erected there during this year.

the best dairy herds in the Willamette

the best dairy herds in the Willamette
Valley.
The Applegate Valley is another
section Of Josephine county that is
destined to become fine dairy dis
trict This Valley contains many
fine farms, largely devoted to stock
raising, hay and hops, though few
farmers are engaged in dairying IN a
small way. Beef and hay have been
too low for the last few years to give
much profit and hops have been big
loss for this past year with the result
that many of the farmers are plan
ming to go into the dairy business.
1t is quite likely that within the
next year creamery will be
erected at Provolt, which has cen.
trail location aid is easily accessible
by wagon roads from all sections of
tie Valley. In the meantime the pro.
ject is being considered Of establish.
ing this Spring cream route to
Grants Pass. So great is the de-
mand for cream in this city, especially
during the summer months and the
price goes so high that it is probable
that as good or better prices could be
realized for the cream than if made
into butter. Two plans of handling
the cream route are under consider
alton, one Icing TO arrange to have
the daily stage running between
Grants Pass and Williams to carry the
cream, and the other is for the
farmers to take tuins in bringing the
cream to Grants Pass. A city milk
route may also be established in con-
nection with the cream business. At
the prices to be had in Grants Pass it
is quite certain that the Applegate
farmers could make more money by
selling cream and milk in this city
than by selling hops at eight to 10
cents a pound and in hauling hay 10
to is miles and selling it for $40 a
ton, and having to do the hauling in
the Fall when the roads are good and
the price of hay low.

BUT WILL BE TORN DOWN.
Even Its History is Lost in the Dim
Past.-lts Walls are Of Sun Dried
Brick, Four Feet Thiek-Two
Hundred Years Ago

Santa, Fe, n. NJ, Dec. 1S.-The old
Spanish prison in Santa Fe, n. NJ,
one of the most ancient and historic
buildings in the City of the Holy
Faith, with the exception of San Mig
uel church is to be razed and in its
place will be erected modern jail
building of vitrifed brick, steel
cages and steam heat. Last week the
county commissioners let the contract
for tearing down and di,poslug "f
the old prison, and work has already
begun upon the new structure. The
half dozen prisoners now in the Jail
will be guarded elsewhere until the
new structure is completed
1t is impossible to secure data on
the old prison. 1t has stood as long
as the oldest inhabitants can romcm-
Der and locked nearly two hundred
years ago as il does today. The
building has been rcmodclcd a dozen
times but the cells and massive doors
have never been changed. The old
prison sof adobe entirely. It's walls
are of sun dried brick, four feet in
thickness The roof, which is of
adobe, laid over massive pine logs,
roughly hcwn into shape with an AK,
is also several feet thick. The cells
are dirty, dark and unfinished eX-
cept for piles of straw covered with
old blankets, or rickoty cots upon
which prisoners are expected to sleep.
Earth, hardened and worn by the
tread of many feet Is the only floor.
In the walls of the cells are still fas-
tened the great handwrought chains
and cuffs with which prisoners at
one time We're made fast. The cell

bars by hand. They have resisted
mob violence in times gone by The
old prison was originally constructed
about placita or little yard, the
building forming three sides and a
high adobe wall the fourth. In recent
years, however, the buildings ON one
side of placita crumbed into ruins
and the remainder on the opposite
side were used as stables for the shcr.
IFS horses, leaving only the main
cellhouse as a prison. In the center
of the placita back Of the prison was
an old scaffold which ratified and

crimes with his life. The method OF
execution was rough. After the knot
was placed about the neck, the eXecu,
toner kicked a prop from beneath the

lost, only a few in recent years hav,
