RAILROAD SURVEYS IN
ROGUE RIVER VALLEY
To Connect With Coast Road and
Is Invading Grants Pass
Territory.

The Port Oxford Tribune in the two
subjoined items tells some railroad
news that is of deep concern to
Grants Pass for it indicates that there
is a possibility that two Of the largest
and richest districts, the trade OF
which now comes to this city, may be
diverted to coast town. This item
from the Tribune also tells what be-
came of the big party Of railroad
surveyors that arrived in Grants Pass
and mysteriously disappeared down
Rogue River. for it appears they are
surveying a branch line to connect
with the Coast road. that the South
erp Pacific is preparing to build from
Drain to San Francisco, to tap the
rich mining and timber districts OF
the Illinois Valley and the Lower
Rogue River Valley:
"a corps of 10 surveyors now have
their headquarters established at Port
Oxford, and are going over the survey
made by Cooper two years ago, as all
papers connected with the previous
survey were lost in the San Francisco
disaster. There are also two other
parties in the field for the same COM
pany-one north and one south of
here. and this, connected with the
fact that the o. q. & E. r. r. have a
crew Of surveyors in Tillamook
county, and announce that they are
going to rapidly push their coast road
to completion, is evidence that :his
section will not long remain cut of
from the outside world"
with railroad surveyors approaching
Gold Beach from three directions at..tht
same time, it is evident that we are
soon to have a boom of no small di
mensions. Gangs of surveyors are
coming down the coast, down Rogu,
River, and down the Illinois and tn,
chances of railroad from some di
rection are pretty good. Rumor ha
it that j. J. Hill of the Great North
ern who has reputation of DOM
things with rush, is casting wish
ful eye down the coast, which cause
the Southern Pacific people to keep al
eye on the great railroad builder from
the north.
"All indications are that Curry will
soon have boom. A railroad dow
the Illinois would make Impossible +

ON that river that are now almost in

OREGON AT THE HEAD
IN FRUIT RAISING
The Most Up-to-Date Methods
Are Employed So SAys
the Oreeonian.

The assertion, which comes from an
authoritative source, that Oregon
leads all other states in the packing
and handling of fruit. will surprise
many people who do not expect state
to excel in an enterprise in which it is
comparatively new. Yet perhaps the
fact that Oregon is young in the fruit
packing industry is one.explanation
for Its superiority. Older states
adopted certain packing methods years
ago and have kept along in old ruts.
Oregon, in order to put its fruit upon
the market in competition with the
product of states that had already
esta blished regular trade, was COM
peiled to pack fruit in better and
more attractive shape, so that it
would keep while being shipped, and
win favor by its appearance when
displayed for the inspection Of con-
sumers. Hood River and Rogue
River apple growers have been pack
ing their apples in q manner that
wins oommendation in the largest
markets in the world. Small fruits
could not be better packed for ship
ment or for display in the markets
than they are here in Oregon.
Prunes. which are standing joke all
over the East, have a new character
when packed in 10-pound boxes, care
fully faced and partly covered with a
border of lace paper. The prunes that
were formerly bought in bulk from
bags were exactly the same as the
prunes packed in boxes, except that
the latter are cleaned by steaming
process and have brighter appear
ance.
The packing of the fruit has a
double value to tfe state, for it not
only gives il better standing in the
, opinion of consumers, but it brings q
price enough higher to pay the Ore
gon laborer's wages in packing.
While there will always be a market
, for prunes or apples, or other fruit
carelessly packed, at lower prices,
) the fruit that gains a state or com.
munity desiable reputation is that
which has been put up in an attract
| i've manner and with name or trade
D mark that will make 1t remembered. =

BAD ORANGES FOUND
IN CENTER OF BOX
Good Fruit On Top and Bottom
L. the Fraud q Fruit Growers
Union Would Prevent

At the meeting of the Grants Pass
Fruit Growers Union last Saturday
n. G. Bobzien, who is both q success
full orcbsrdist ard grocerymaD, ex-
hibited some oranges that he had
taken from shipment Of oranges
which he had received from Sacra-
mento comm ission house. The
oranges we're so badly infested with
San Jose scale as to render them unfit
to eat.
That the commission house or the
grower was dishonest was proven by
the fact that the diseased oranges
were placed in the center of the
boxes, the oranges on the top and the
bottom being perfect. The boxes bore
no label so there is no means Of Mr..
Bohzien calling the commission firm
10 account, for If he did the firm
would say they bought them for
honestly packed oranges and as there
is no way to identify as to whose or
cbard the box came from, all the re-
course there Is for Mr.. Bobzien is to
not buy Of that firm again. Had
these oranges been from some OF the
fruit growers unions of California 1t
would have been a quick matter to
Z have found out who was putting up
, the dishonest pack for each box would
have been labeled with name of both
union and of the growera aud the
number of the packer. A. complaint
coming TO the union that box OF
oranges was faulty the blame could bt
quickly placed on the guilty grower
or packer.
It is the high standard of the pack
sent out by the fruit growers unions
and the dishonest methods Of 80 many
! individuals growers and shippers and
OF commission men that has given the
public perfect confidence in the
quality of the fruit contained in box
bearing a union label and an equal
4 distrust Of fruit in boxes unmarked Oh
/ bearing the name only of firm oi
individual. The creameries by put.
ting up only u superior article Of but.
ter have 30 won the confidence of the
public that housewife desiring a
good article will take butter bearing
a creamery label though the price IL
higher than unlabeled butter and that
particular creamery unknown TO her.
Experience has taught the housewife
that roll of labeled butter is always
good, while unlabeled butter is some
: times good and more often it is not.
The fruit growers unions are accom-
plishing the same in fruit and the
discriminating buyer has learned that
box Of fruit bearing the brand Of q
union never contains wormy or rot
to apple, nor the top and bottom
fancy fruit while the center is made
mp Of second grade, or culls. Thi'
has made il possible in the markets OF
the big Eastern cities where quality
is considered more than price to Sc
cure from 10 to 20 per cent more fol
fruit bearing the brand of uuior
that has become known than for frui
in brandless boxes. The time is neal
at hand when the individual frui
shipper will no longer be known in
the markets and the unions will
handle all fruit as well as all othe
farm products.

Chicago, Aug. 15.-The search for

capture reached the police. An organ.
lied man hunt also was started near
Madison and Baraboo, Wis, and sur
rounding towns.
Judge Gibbons appointment of q
new receiver Monday was the FIRST
blow in fight to GUST Receiver Fetzer.
It is asserted the latter has NO right
ful jurisdiction over the banks assets
because he was appointed under the
banking law of 1872 instead of that Of
1888. On settlement of this technical
question the bank receivership has
been hung up. A long struggle, with
appeal after appeal, is held in pros.
pect
Bank Examiner c. G. Jones made his
oMcial report on the wrecked bank to
the state auditor Tuesday. He do
clared. the document Will not be made
public in Chicago and that for protec-
ton OF the credit Of debtors of the

Henry w. Herring, charging him with
forging note for $4,000 in the name

signed BY Kirkeby.
Stensland's thefts are believed to
have been increased by $1,000 through
the discovery Monday of q genuine
note for that amount In his house. The
collateral given to secure the note,
supposed to be attached to that paper
was missing. 1t is believed Stsnsland
sold It and kept the money.

have been taken to protect the EN-.

to leave there for Krasnoye-Selo ex.

will go to Tsarkoe-Selo, instead OF
returning to Peterhof, although some

tention to go Immediately by sea to
Livadia, In the Crimea, and spend the
autumn there.
The authorities attach great impor
lance to the capture OF revolutionists
at Moscow and in that vicinity during
the last few days. They believe they
have broken up the headquarters OF
the military fighting organization and
arrested the leaders In addition to
Selling their clandestine printing es.
