GOOD WAY TO ADVERTISE
RESOURCES OF STATE
Marion County Man Advocates the
Sending East Newspapers in
Place of Pamphlets.

The county court of this county,
says the Salem Statesman, with
a commendable desire to advance
its interests by advertising its re-
sources and advantages in the Eastern
states and thereby secure desirable
immigration and the introduction O.?
capital has appropriated $500 to pay
for 16 pages in a book which the
Portland board of trade is preparing
for circulation through the aid of the
big railroad companies and their i'm
migration bureaus, the intention be-
ing to print 1000 copies of the books
10, 900 copies to be substantially bound
aud the remainder in paper covers.
There is no doubt but such publi-
cations do a certain amount OF good
in advertising the country of which
they are descriptive, but there are
many people who do not consider
them the best means of reaching the
desired results and who believe that a
similar amount Of money expended In
other lines would do more good. A
prominent gentleman Of Marion
county In discussing the matter re-
Gently advanced the following theory:
81 believe" he said, "tbat $500
expended in sending the Eastern
states the everyday newspapers of this
locality containing regular rehearsal
of the life and accomplishment of the
community, would produce better and
more lasting results than any number
OF big books of special matter which
can be circulated. / would not. send
boom editions, or special editions,
but l would adopt plan of this kind
Let the county court appropriate a
certain amount of money to be used |
in sending newspapers back to the
Eastern states say for three months.
Then, let Eersons who are living here
and have friends or acquaintances in
the east who would be desirable resi-
tents of Oregon, hand in their names
70 the newspapers and have the papers
sent to them for one, two or three
months so that they could read the
current history of this region. Two
hundred weekly or semi weekly news
>apers could be sent in this way for
hree months for 800 or less, and for
800 1000 newspapers for three months.
Sven better terms could probably be
made with publishers and more
'apers sent, and believe 1000 local
newspapers visiting the people
egularly, without any attempt at
'oom news, but just the current liter
ture OF the time, would do more |
,ood than all the special advertising
ou can concoot.
"Ihe newspapers could advertise the
roposed arrangement and ask its
atrons throughout the county to send
one or more names of Eastern
rlends, with statement of their ,
haracter and the newspaper could at.
aoh these lists with verified state.
,ent OF the papers mailed and file
nth the county court as vouchers for
ne money appropriated. l believe
his is worth presenting to the county

Denver.-A Rocky Ford special to

special trains carried nearly $500 peo-
pie to Swink, the new town six miles
east of here Wednesday, where a bar
becue and sale OF lots took place. The
first lot sold brought $1,125 and was

PACKERS TRUST CASE,
Garfield Denies Claim That He Prom
ised Immunity.

Chicago. - Commissioners Garfield
again held the witness stand in the
packers case Wednesday and made
positive denials of assertions that have
been made on the stand by the wit
nesses for the packers.
District Attorney Morrison ques-
toned Mr.. Garfield regarding his con-
versations with Edward Swift, Edward
Morris and various other represen-
tatives of the packers, and the
commissioner stated positively that
he had never told any of
them that information received
from the packers would be regarded
as confidential, or that If they did not
give up the information desired by his
department, they would be compelled
to do SO.
The opening of the examination was
on the books examined by Mr.. Garfield
when he visited Chicago February 2S,
1905. The books showed the assem-
bling of profits and loss accounts of
the different packers. He said that he
examined the totals only and that no
figures were taken from the books.
AS per instructions he had given to
his agents prior to the commencement
of the investigation he said he told
the agents of the department that if ac-
cess was given to the books of the
packers they were to go to the books;
that no detective methods should be
used; that there would be no use of
compulsory powers, or a suggestion of
such a position upon the part of the
government. If disputes arose they
were to be referred to the commits
sioner for adjustment
District Attorney Morrison asked
what information had been secured by
the commissioner outside of the books
of the packers. Commissioner Garfield
said that much of it had been secured
from the Bureau of Animal Industry,
as well as from cattle raisers, feeders
and commission men. Butchers were
questioned regarding the prices of re-
tail meats.

about 10000, in immigration into the

Board of Supervisors Coming 10 BiSbee to Visit Under-
 ground Workings.
TRIP OF INSPECTION
 FOR TAX PURPOSES.
.BiSbee and Douglas Justices Asked to Make New Bills, Assessor 0'Reilly Vindicat- ed-LoWell Incorporation.

To go down into the Copper Queen. Calumet & Arizona and other mines of this section and spend the greater part of the day examining the under ground workings, J. J. Bowen, C. A. Taylor and William Riggs, who consti. tute the Board of Supervisors. will arrive in Bisbee today.
 As planned by the Supervisors, their inspectio will be thorough in Ssture, as much of the workings be ing seen as their limited time will permit. Whether or not they expect to complete their tour of inspection of the mines today or will take sew eral days for the purpose will prob ably be determined after they reach the city this morning.
 This trip will be taken as officials of the county and not as individuals, who are coming for the purpose of satisfying "a curiosity. Their object in getting familiar with the extent of each mining company's holdings will be later used in adjusting the tax matters of the county.
 Members of the board feel it their duty to make themselves familiar with the amount of property owned and working by the several mining companies. as questions affecting this very thing may arise when thet sir as a board of equalization on county tax matters few months hence. -.
 Reports from Tombstone last night were that the board adjourned yes Eerday evening after having made all preparations for the trip to Bisbee today. It is stated that they will also spend part of their time while here in conference with General Manager Walter Douglas of the Copper QueeI Companq about official matters.
 The board yesterday authorized Clerk Howe to send notices to the jus tices of the peace in Bisbee and Doug las, asking them to make out then bills again for the quarter just past and instead of listing cases as misde r,eanors to specifically state the charge on which the defendant is charged. This is to be used in con nection with an investigation that i: being made in connection with fes bills that have been presented to .,ni board by constables and deputy sher 1fs here and in Douglas.
 The board laid the petition for the incorporation of Lowell on the table, ii being believed there are not sufficient slgners who are taxpayers within the proposed incorporated limits. Those Who are working for Incorporation VIII be asked to submit map of the proposed limits of Lowell.
 Finding that there was nothing to substantiate the charges made against County Assessor B. J.. OReiliy of dis ciiminations by St. David people and on the advice of District Attorney FIa-,nigan, the petition, asking for his removal, was dismissed.

Cashier Hoods Report Ready on Improvements to Rail
 road Avenue.
BELIEVES SIDEWALK
 SHOULD BE BUILT
Principal Highway Between BiSbee and Lowell Receiving Attention of Members of the Chamber of Commerce.

Recommending that Railroad Ave nue between the Fl Paso & Southwest ern depot and the lower end of the l slag dump be widened and a board sidewalk built by the city, J. T. Hood cashier of the Miners & Merchants Bank. will make an important report to the Chamber of Commerce at its meeting to be held next Tuesday ev ening.
 Hood was appointed by the Cham Der some time ago to look into the matter. Yesterday he submitted his report to writing. and is now prepared to lay the matter before the members of the Chamber for their approval and action.
 As it will be suggested by Hood the plan is to ask the Fl Paso & South western for enough room between the depot and upper end of the slag dump to establish a sidewalk on the outer edge of the road, and to widen the street in narrow places as much as possible.
 If it can be reached soon enough the Council will be asked to have Con, tractor Brown in laying the sidewalk on Railroad Avenue to lay heavy tim beTs in the cement, allowing them to project far enough from the outer edge of the street to support a walk O. heavy blanks.
 To widen the stret at the slag dump the Copper Queen Company will be asked to permit the city to remove several feet of the slag along the edge of the road, not only giving enough to widen the highway. but enough mere to make a sidewalk.
 At the city barns, around which the street makes a sharp curve, efforts will be made to get the city to remove its buildings several feet to the east and a wide street be built along the edge of the slag dump, to where con nection is made with the road in the bottom of the main canyon.
 Hood stated yesterday that as fal as he has been able to see, those in l terested have tacitly given their con sent to these important changes, He believes that if the changes are rec |, cIlGielued hy the ChaniSSsr Of Com 1 merce to the Council they will take i'm mediate action in the matter.
 In discussing the matter yesterday 1 Hcod called attention to the fact tha l Naco Road and Railroad Avenue ar' practically the only way of gettint into and out of the city, and in thei present condition, within the tty linn its, are totally inadequate at presen
 to handle the large amount of trase that passes over them daily. Beint the connecting highway between Bis bee and Lowell is another argumen
