them the needs and possibilities of
Josephine county and particularly the
section of land south of Rogue river, in
which thousands of acres of land could
be covered by ditch. which according

every man and woman should have
sufficient knowledge of drawing that

Mr.. O'Brien is a teacher of drawing

adding of this study would make no
great increase in expense in providing

likelihood that vocal music may be

WAR IN
EASTERN OREGON
HA rrima an and Hill Interests are
Striving to Get Control of
That Section.

The San Francisco Chronicle of
Saturday says that the recent an
nouncemenr that the Weed railroad
was to be extended by the Southern
Pacific and the Weed-Natron branch
made main line for traffic between
Portland .and San Francisco, was to
conceal the real meaning of its pur-
chase by the Hartman people. The
Chronicle says: A railroad war Of
the keenest interest to Californians,
and having as the prize the control Of
the heart of Oregon, is now being
waged by two huge interests. The
Hill people and the Hartman inter
ests are battling for the control of the
rich lands of Oregon and the vast
stretches of country to be opened up
by the irrigation projects in the
klamath country.
The war is none the less deadly be-
cause of the quietness with which it
Is being conducted. No plans are
heralded, but both sides are going
into the matter with the grim dete 7
mination to win. The first intima-
tion of the struggle that came from
the citadels of the two forces was the
announcement made by the Southern
Pacific Company that it had purchased
the California Northeastern. In
order to veil the significance of the
purchase the officials intimated that
in time this road would be used as
one of the main lines for the traffic to
the north, and that the Shasta route
would pass over the proposed line of
the California Northeastern.
This announcement was to conceal
the real meaning of the purchase. 1t
is the plan of the Southern Pacific to
build the California Northeastern to
klamath Falls, which was the route
of the proposed road. But the South
ern Pacific will not stop at that point.
If the route of the California North
eastern fIom Weed, on the main line
of the Southern Pacific, is produced
it will be found to run in north
easterly direction and meet the Ore
pon Short Line of the Southern Pa
cific at Huntington. This road will
ompletely open up the heart Of Ore
gon.
This move on the part Of the
Southern Pacific has completely out
witted the Hill outfit. The plan of
Hill was to build road called the
San Francisco, Idaho and Montana,
which is to start at Butte, Mont, and
run in a southwesterly direction
through Salmon City. Boise (Idaho),
and ON down to San Francisco. This
line would open up a new stretch oil
territory and would afford decided
cut .off for travel from the Northwest,
now reaching San Francisco by way
of Portland

secured with which to pay for the

In order to have basis ON which to

chase Of the apple crop it is expected
that every farmer, who will ship

at the meeting to be held next Satur-
day careful estimate of the first

ROGUE RIVER. A
SECOND HOOD RIVER
Says q Hood River Apple Grower
Who Was Well Pleased With
This Valley.

The Oregonian of Tuesday gives the
subjoined interview with A. I.
Mason. the Hood River apple grower
who with DR.. James withycombe and
Prof. @. 1. Lewis, of the State Ag-
ricultural College, conducted series
of six fruit growers meetings in this
section of Rogue River Valley. Mr..
Mason, in the interview paid an ap-
preciated compliment to this Valley
which he says is second Hood River.
OF the destruction of salmon in Rogue
river at the dam of the Water Works
Mr.. Mason made personal observa'
tion and he thinks it gross neglect
and cruelty to the fish that no ladder
is provided for their getting over the
dam:
Professors Withycombe aud Lewis,
OF the Oregon Agricultural College,
accompanied by A. l. Mason, Of
Hood River, have returned from a
trip into the Rogue River country.
where they went upon experimental
work connected with the Agricultural
College.
"Mr. Mason, who returned to his
home last evening, speaks In the high
tes terms of the undeveloped re-
sources of the Rogue River country.
and says the people of that section are
just awakening to the possibilities of
the region for fruitrgowing as well as
other important industries.
According to Mr.. Mason, one of
the finest marble quarries in the
country exists in the vicinity of
Grants Pass, the product Of which
ranks with the best in the United
States. Both black and white mar
BILE are mined in abundance, the sup
ply being more than sufficient to sup
ply immediate demands in this state,
and he deplores the fact that such an
important industry is overlooked to
large extent, and money sent away for
an inferior grade of this kind of
building material.
"While Mr.. Mason is great ad-
mirer of the Rogue River Valley re-
gion, his loyalty to Hood River is
still paramount in his mature, and he
considers that the greatest compli-
ment he can pay to the southern fruit
growing belt is that it is second
edition of Hood River.
"He thinks the State Fish Warden
should look after things little more
carefully in connection with the dam
in Rogue River, near Grants Pass,
which, he says. is deficient in fish
ladders, with the result that salmon
are dying by the score in the effort
to get up stream and spawn.
"'Out of 20 large-sized fish. said
Mr.. Mason, 1 counted only four that
got over the falls. The rest perished
in the attempt, their bodies floating
along as a mute denuDciation Of the
neglect to provide proper facilities
for the salmon to reach their spawn
ing grounds.

HOLD MEETING
Will Meet Saturday. Septembr 22

A meeting Of the Grants Pass Fruit
Growers Association will be held at
the Courier office ON Saturday, Sep
tember go. at 1 80 p m Every men,

of Importance to be acted on. The
meeting will be open to all fruit
growers and every person who has an
orchard, even of but dozen trees, is
invited and expected to be present.
One Of the principal matters for
action will be the adopting Of a petit
tion to the county court asking for the
appointment Of county fruit in
speotor and the recommending OF a
suitable person for the position, to
enforce the new state law that makes
it obligatory ON all owners of diseased
fruit trees to either free them Of pests
or destroy them under penalty of it
being done by the inspector and the
cost becoming lean upon the land.
As every fruit tree owner will be
forced to spray and as the first spray
ing will have to be done so soon as
the leaves are off the trees spray ma
terial will be In demand and the
union will supply it at cost to all
fruit growers in order to assist them
in cleaning up their orchards. All
who will require spray material will
be expected to give in at this meeting
the amount they will require.
1t being impossible to rent suit-
able war ehouse In Grants Pass in
which to handle this years crop Of
apples it is necessary that the Associa-
tion build warehouse. At the forth
coming meeting this matter will he
considered and arrangements made to
secure suitable grounds and the erect
ion of the building. As this will
require legal organization to

COLLECTIONS AT CHURCH.
Instructions Regarding the Contribu-
ton Box for the Ostenta-
tious Nver.

We are frequently asked regard
ing the best manner of dropping
money into the contribution box
1T church, says the Canadian
Churchman, and, carefully consid
cring the subject, We suggest the
following rules;
First, if YOU feel particularly
mean, and have only penny to be
stow, you must keep it well GOV
cred in your hand, and when the
box is under your nose YOU must,
with quick, nervous motion, let
your mite fall SO that it shall es-
cape observation.
Second, if you have n quarter or
any other silver coin Of consider.
able size to give, you may hold it in
plain sight between your forefin
gers, and when you deposit it you
must let it drop from a compare
lively lofty elevation, so that it
may make a musical jingle when
II reaches it's destination.
Thirdly, il you contemplate Of
fering a bill you must not take the
money out OF your vest pocket un
til the happy time comes when
your neighbor can best see your
unparalleled generosity. The mo
ment the collector appears at the
pew is the time when Won must
tumble your money, and then. hav-
ing methodically unfolded the bill,
and put on your eye glasses to as
certain its denomination you NAV
slowly place it on the top of the
box.
These three rules. we believe.
will be SUFFICIENT for all ordinary
purposes.
