no responsible taxpayer has made
any complaint yet. The real burden
bearers of this county are we'll pleased
with what Mr.. Roy Watson and l did
to induce the government officials at
the congress to give early attention to
the claims Of Josephine and jackson
counties We went in the interest Of
the entire county and 1 unhesitatingly
say that $2l was never spent for a
better purpose. Irrigation Of this
valley means comfortable homes for
many thousands of people, and it is
very unfortunate that our country is
afflicted with few men whose only
ambition seems to be to kick at every
honest effort to better the conditions
of the present time. Anything is
legal that promotes the general well
fare Of the people.
Our government donated millions to
the expositions at Philadelphia, New
Orleans, Chicago, st. Louis and Port
land and that, too, without one word
of written law on the subject. Jose
phine county gave Sl700 to Lewis aud
and Clark fair and II. G.. Smith APP
proved it. The city of Grants Pass
recently donated $1,000 to the city of
San Francisco, without law or even
the advice OF Il. G.. Smith. And,
notwithstanding the importance of
Mr.. Smith as legal advisor and
general guardian of the people, am
inclined to believe that things terres.
trial would move along as usual,
even though he should conclude to let
others people attend to their own
business without his aid.
Mr.. Smith misrepresents me ag ain
when he says that | have talked
much of grating aud extravaganza,
In my recent canvass for county
Judge, | said repeatedly that if mis-.
takes had been made that they were
made honestly-that | had no words
of censure for any county official.

Capt. Buck Takes q Trip.

Captain and Mrs. j. 8. Buck have
returned from an outing of business
and pleasure on upper Grave Greek,
sojourning while there with Mr.. and
Mrs. G. H. Pease, who have very
fine residence, quite q band of high
bred Jersey stock, also fine garden
and meadows. In connection with
their ranch, Mr.. Pease has placer
mine of 40 acres fully equipped, that
he works during the Winter months,
returning to him a good profit. This
mine, in connection with his ranch,
gives them a good living, without
much hard work. This 1 can vouch
for as during our stay we lived on
the fat Of the land, plenty of fresh
meat, pigeons, quail and deer meat
good regular smoked bacon, not doped,
such as we generally find in the mar
ket: something eatable that makes
one smack their lips and wish for
more lots of fresh vegetables from
the garden. also Strawberries with
good, yellow cream from their Jersey
COWS, all well cooked and seasoned by
the lady Of the house. Our only re-
gret was that we could not stay with
them longer.
The business part of my trip was to
look at the mining section and must
say that / found very much more good
looking prospects than expected.
Among those visited were H. Elmer
mon, 40 acres, placer; Louis Conredon,
40 acres, well equipped; Luther
Schmucker, 40 acres well equipped
and in good working shape; Jack
Porter, so acres, good looking ground,
but no improvements; Sam Gibson,
$50 acres, mine portion we'll equip
ped, most of the land covered with
heavy timber.
These properties all have good ear.
marks and would be good producers
if worL ed in "a systematical way. AS
now worked they give the owners a
good living. That APPEARS to be
about all they require, and they can
do that during the pleasant weather in
the Winter months.
, In my opinion, if most of these
properties could be worked in work
manlike manner by mining men. there
would soon be stampede to that
section. j. S. B.
