The following news item under an

point:
Rio Grande passenger trains

ist passengers for different points in
Idaho, Washington and Oregon, and
these went north over the Oregon
Short Line, while colonists arriving
over the Union Pacific this morn

instruction to prepare for great

Mr.. Mattison has capitalized the
Oriole Gold Mining company and
will from now on do mining in a
large way. The richest ore will be
shipped to the Tacoma smelter and
the company will at once put in a
stamp mill and cyanide plant of
sufficient capacity to take care of
the low grade ore as fast as It is
mined. The first work really to be
done by the new company will be
the construction of good wagon
road from Galice to the mine. a dis
tance Of two miles in a Northwestern
ly direction, and the building of
saw mill to cut lumber for use at
the mine.
The Oriole shows considerable

will then go on to Merlin arriving
there at 3 p. M, and remain there
until 4 o'clock The occasion should
be taken advantage Of by the largest
number of persons ever assembled

RESPECTFULLY INFERRED.
The Last Sad Rites Of the Citizens
Telephone Co.

The remains of the Citizens Tele-
phone company's franchise in this
city were respectfully laid to rest
by the city council Thursday even
ing with but few mourners present
II was expected that when the min
utes Of the last meeting were read
that the fireworks would commence,
but they were approved without a
dissenting voice. The palsied
stricken franchise did not at that
time revive sufficient enough to re-
Hognize anyone present. However,
later in the session there was a petit
,ion sprung on the council that
looked as though the spectators
would get their moneys worth The
petition was from Arthur Conklin
and Marcus Robbins asking the
council to grant the Citizens Tele-
phone Co. the right to erect poles
IN the streets and alleys, string
vlres and use the poles OF the other
electric transmission companies in
'he city.
There was a dead silence for a
time, the death scene being one OF
the most piteous ever beheld in

being no action taken by the Mayor
not wishing the franchise TO die on

GRANTS PASS PREPARING
FOR NEXT FLOWER SHOW

The flower show of June 90. 1908,
was one Of the beautiful memories
or that year and the ladies' of the
Auxiliary who gave us that pleas
Ing exhibition will this year repeat
1t with such additional beauties as
experience and preparation will
warrant. Every home In Grants
Pass should be proud to be repre-
sented on that occasion by the fin
est roses 1t is possible to grow this
season.
Just what the ladies have deter
mined upon for this years rose
festival has not yet been made pub
lie, but In general way we all know
but in general way we all know
that the exhibition will be worthy
OF our city. Grants Pass has the
soil, the climate and the necessary
experience to grow flowers of a
superior quality and all that Is re-
auired to do Is to plant, protect and
cultivate this one queen OF the
flower family. Portland will, by
the way, hold Its rose festival June
the 9th this year and It goes with
out saying that 1t will, as usual be
an occasion OF deep interest to all
flower growers everywhere. Grants
Pass through the efforts OF the
ladies of the Auxiliary will soon
gain reputation for rose growing
second to none on the coast and II
Is therefore important that we give
them every assistance they may call
for.

remarks brought Councilman Cra-

unanimously that the petition and

REBEKAH LODGE ASSISTS
Royal Time Much Enjoyed BY Over
a Hundred Members of
the Order.

The Grand Master of Odd Fellows,
Ed Hostetler, reached Grants Pass
last Saturday afternoon and in the
evening paid an official visit to
Golden Rule Lodge No rs, which
had been called together by Noble
Grand Best for that purpose. 1t
had been arranged to have a real
candidate for initiation by the re-
gular lodge team. The work was
put on in a manner that was very
gratifying to this high official and
in his talk after the initiation was
over, he complimented the lodge
upon the creditable manner in which
the work was done.
The initiation being over the par
ty passed into the dining hall,
where the Rebekah lodge members
served banquet to about a hun
dred of the brothers and sisters of
the order. After the last course had
been served the Grand Master was
called upon by the Noble Grand for
an after dinner speech. He respond
ed with a charming story of the
order itself; its growth and pros
perity from its founding in 1919,
down to the present time Taken
altogether it was highly interest
ing talk and it gave pleasure to all
Who heard It,
Mrs. Mary A. Smith, the presi-
dent of the Rebekah Assembly OF
the state of Oregon, was present and
was asked to respond for that order
Shich she did in n pleasing manner
Mrs Smith wears the honOrs Of her
exalted office with becoming modes

VT Flanagan the real founder OF
Golden Rule lodge, was present and
Noble Grand Best called upon him
for speech. The doctor said 25
wears ago he got together five Odd
Fellows, including himself, and they
founded the lodge. He told the
story of its trials and success for the
wears 1t has been in existence and
gave a considerable amount of his
tory relating to the lodge. The visit
Of the Grand Master to Grants Pass
will long be remembered by all the
members OF the order who were
fortunate enough to meet him.

CARRIER EXAMINATIONS
Postmaster Donnell Says All Things
Are in Readiness Except Se-
lection of Carriers.

" A special from Washington an
nounces that on June Is city mail
delivery will be inaugurated in
Grants Pass with two carriers and
one substitute carrier. This has
(. been a subject of much rejoicing in
this city and our good fortune will
give our friends on the outside
much satisfaction Postmaster DON
nell says that every detail of pre-
paration has been worked out and
nothing remains to be done except
to hold civil service examinations
Tor carriers and give those who win
the places an opportunity to become
familiar with the streets and num-
(. bers Of the city.
In due time there will be blanks
I sent to this office by the Postoffice
department to distribute among
those who may desire to take the
examinations Applicants must be
over IS and under As.
S When the blanks are received the
\ fact will be announced to the news
papers, also the time the examina-
tion will be held
The postmaster was notified of
the action of the department as
soon as the mail reached here after
the action at Washington was taken.
The announcement having been
given out to the Associated Press
the news was sent to newspapers by
Telegraph and so reached here sew
eral days before the official notice
came by mail
Ashland is also fortunate, also
Hood River and McMinnville, but
( Medford and Roseburg were left
out. In these matters influence cuts
no figure as each town must stand
on its own bottom. The fortunate
cities will, of course, regret that
their sister towns have been left out
in this new deal for honors. Selling
postage stamps may increase the
salary Of the P. NJ, but 1t will not
count for city delivery.
In the instructions to postmasters
4 is found this item OF interest which
should be read carefully by every
resident within the limits of city de-
livery:
at is suggested that you urge
your patrons the desirability Of pro-
viding private boxes or drops for
the receipt of mail. The use Of such
receptacles is advantageous to the
public as well as the department,
facilitating speedy delivery"
Postmaster Donnell says that
every effort will be made by his Of
flee to inaugurate the delivery on
the date set by the postoffice depart
ment and there will be no difficulty
In doing so II the civil service ex-
aminations take place promptly.
