TO refuse concessions offered by the Western

crease OF pay after the telegra piers were at

promised TO the strikers
While President Clowry would not deny that
the company had offered to make concessions
on points not involving the subject of wages he
would not affirm that such mediative advances
had been made.

EXCELLENT COAL PROSPECTS.
Much Interest Aroused In Deposits
Around Ashland.


The recent work in developing the
various coal prospects found in the vi
cinity of Ashland, Oregon, has met
with 30 much success and has attracted
such widespread attention that 1t prom
;ses to insure sufficient perseverance In
work along this line to determine the
real extent of the coal deposits which,
beyond doubt, exist in this section.
There Is no question about the coal be-
ing found and the quality Of 10, but
there are skeptics AZ to the extent Of
the deposits. The scarcity and high
price of wood for fuel has prompted and
encouraged the coal prospecting to a
large extent, and the opening up of
coal beds Of ample extent would be q
welcome solution Of the fuel problem,
which is serious one and promises to
be more serious before another winter
is over. The inability to secure wood
choppers during the past year or two
has greatly curtailed the wood output
and has resulted In soaring prices.
Recently no less than two represent
atives of the Hartman railroad inter
ests have been In Ashland looking up
the developments Of coal prospects In
the immediate vicinity Of Ashland, and
have made personal investigation ia

Fringe the dark forest wall;

There comes apace q mellow cry

And crumpled hat forlorn,

With store Of shining corn,
His arms across the hickory bars,
His eyes upon the drowsy stars,
