A jury OF six men heard the evil
dence. Attorney J. G. Mariner repre-
sented Miss Railways interests. The
woman appeared perfectly rational
this morning She took the stand
and admitted that at times she suf-
fered from severe pains in the head
and in the heart and that when she
was suffering in this manner and was
greatly aggravated she thought OF
killing herself. but she declared that
she never felt like harming other
people. She admitted occasionally
taking a knife to her room when she
felt that she might want to kill her
self. The pathetic statement OF the
woman convinced the jury that IT
would be better for her to coniine her
in an asylum where she can receive
treatment and perhaps be finally re
stored to her normal mental condi-
tion. The woman's own statement
was the strongest evidence against
her.
At times Miss Ballway is perfectly
rational. She has the sympathy OF
many friends. 1t is to be hoped that
a season spent in the asylum VIII
cause her to be restored to good
mental health.
Miss Ballway is AZ years of age.

Business Men Will View bitches.

The Josephine County Irrigation
and Power company held a meeting
at 3 O'Clock Friday afternoon at
which considerable business of i'm
portance was transacted. Plans
were made to rush the work so as
to let in the water on the first day
of June II possible. 1t was stated
at the melting that 1t was desirable
to have the business men of this city
visit all the bitches under construc-
tion, and 1t was arranged to have
conveyances, automobiles, ready at
7 o'clock on Tuesday morning next
at the Josephine hotel for the ac-
comodation of those who desire to
make the trip to the high line
ditch above Fruitdale, to the big
gravity ditch and to the 200-feet
level contour ditch. An effort will
be made to accommodate all busi-
ness men who care to examine the
work on the bitches.

tion will be needed. The people of
Fruitdale are to be congratulated
on their up-to-date energy in this
whole ditch business. They have at
all times stood ready to do their part
to make irrigation not only a possi-
bility, but reality, There is now
great activity on the big gravity
canal and the grading machines have
reached the city limits, dis
tance of three miles, and in a very
short time will be working in the
city proper. Back of the graders,
men and teams with plows and
scrapers are finishing up the work.
This line is nearly straight from the
dam to Grants Pass. 1t is quite
certain that this ditch will be ready
to supply water for a large section
below town by the time irrigation
is needed. Taken altogether this
great enterprise which has been un-
dertakenSby our home people will be
pushed to a success this season.

TRIMBLE READY FOR
WOOD. WORKING JOBS

The Courier mentioned last week
the wonderful invention which James
Trimble has introduced into his
blacksmith shop, known as the hy-
draullc tire setter. During the pres
ent week there has been many OPP
portunities to put the machine to
severe test and this was done every
day In the week, and II now can be
said that 1t is a much better machine
than was claimed for It In these
columns last weok. Ii certainly is
most wonderful invention. There are
other cold tire settlers Il Is true, but
this one is as much ahead of all these
as they are ahead OF the old methods
of setting tires.
The Trimble shop Is certainly an
up-to-date establishment In every
respect; not only is II supplied with
the latest machinery but has been
made modern department shop.
There is a horse shoeing department
with It's separate forge, the general
blacksmithing department and the
wagon department. These are all
run separately and II occasion calls
for II to help a customer out, work
can be done In all these departments
at one time The material in the
line OF wood work In the wagon
making department Is the very best
that can be purchased. There IL
fine grained hickory for spokes, and
oak for feloes, so that repairs Of the
best quality can be turned out, The
new extension OF the shop In which
the wagon work Is carried on IL COM
plete in Itself; besides the wood work
department there is a separate forge
for the iron work. This makes four
forges in the establishment. In con-
nection with this latter department
It should be mentioned that Mr..
Trlmble carries at all times COM
plete stock of slngletree iron and
other materials TO numerous to
mention In a newspaper article.

solved, that the United State should
maintain a system of bounties and
subsidies for the protection of the
American merchant marine" The
teams were as follows:
Affirmative: Herbert Thorn, Helen
Laing, Arda Kirk.
Negative: Henry Norton, Jose
phine Randle, Enrol Gilkey.
While our opponents gave very
creditable argument it was far sur
passed by the work of the local
team. Our three young people have
worked long and patiently under the
direction of their debating coach,
Miss Barker, and they should be
commended for what they have ac-
complished along this line. They
gave well defined, logical argu-
ment which showed thorough
knowledge of the question and of
the points at issue. The victory can
not be attributed to any certain in
dividual for each carried out the
particular phase of the argument to
the best of his ability, while the
team work" is to be commended
especially.
BY this debate Grants Pass has
won the championship Of Western
Oregon. Our team will debate the
same question at Eugene May 21.
If they win then, Grants Pass will
have the state championship. We
are now the second team in the,
state, a step higher than we have
ever been before.
The student body is enthusiastic
in support of the gallant three"
but that Is not enough, the towns
people as we'll should take an inter-
est in their High School and the
team, realizing that these are the
best commercial advertisement the
town can have.
When the visiting debaters arrived
they were met at the train by re-
ception committee from the student
body. Pal Kinney took them to the
hotel at once with his automobile.
Later in the afternoon he took
them for long ride through the
valley, the judges enjoyed spin in
Miss Wolkes car.
After the debate the students
gave a reception at Halls hall In
honor of the two teams, who formed
a receiving line at the door.
Saturday Miss Alma Woke gave
an automobile picnic to the members
of the team and the coach, Miss
Barker.

For Rond ROLLER demonstration.

Geo. Evans, general manager for
the Buffalo Steam Roller Co., with
headquarters at Portland, IL In the
city and offers to send TO Grants Pass
one OF their lotion steam rollers to
demonstrate TO the city council It's
efficiency over the gasoline roller
that is now being tried on the city
streets Mr., Evans says that II will
not cost the city one cent for the
demonstration. and they will make
the gasoline roller show up so poor
that the council would not consider
It's purchase.
Mr. Evans does not ask the city
to bind themselves to buy his roller,
but to show them that the gasoline
roller cannot do the work that
steam rollers can do, or as cheaply.
We think the offer should be nc
ccpted and the test Of both kinds of
rollers made Grants Pass wants
only the best.

WILL COMPLETE HALF MILE OF
THIS DITCH EVERY DAY
THE BIC GRAVITY CANALS
Pushing the Work With Great VigOr
So AS to Be Ready for Irri-
cation This Season.

The work on the irrigation canal
Is progressing in most satisfactory
manner with the exception of lack
of teams. Heavy horses have been
hard to procure except by purchasing
them and the company has of late
been obliged to do this in order to
secure five additional animals to
work on the graders. During the
last few days Superintendent Garner
has been able to find a few heavy
teams which he has hired and will
put to work as fast as they arrive.
The trouble has been that nearly all
the owners of horses who have Of
fered them for ditch construction,
had only light teams and these were
useless on heavy work of this kind.
This has been great drawback and
disappointment to the irrigation COM
pany from the very first and has OBJ
liged them to purchase nearly all
the horses that have been used on
the heavy construction.
This state of affairs reminds us to
say that the raising of heavy draft
horses in this section would be a
highly profitable business in the near
future, as even ordinary farm work
cannot be done with the light ami
mails now so numerous. With ir-
rigation plenty of hay can be pro-
duced and with cheap forage heavy
horses can be raised at a profit.
Deep tillage will be necessity from
now on for it should be known to all
men who farm that they must "plow
deep to find the gold;" but to re-
sumo the construction work on the
bitches.
There are two canals upon which
work is being pushed with great
energy and they are the Fruitdale
or high line on the south side and
the big gravity ditch on the north
side. Two miles of the Fruitdale
ditch has been completed and this
brings this line from the dam to a
point on the mountain side opposite
the home of Mr.. Adams. On these
two miles the work has been diff
cult; in places horses had to be used
tandem and when room was made
for two horses abreast there was
danger of accident, but fortunately
the work was completed without
anything serious happening.
President Gilkey thinks that the
two miles of work already completed
on the Fruitdale ditch represents
half the construction on the whole
line and Superintendent Garner con
firms this opinion, 1t is thought
when once the sharp angle around
the mountain is turned the bal
ance of the way fully half-mlle pei
day will be made and the whole dis.
tance will be finished before irriga-

4 New Sultan of Turkey.

A cablegram from Constantinople
dated last Tuesday says that by
Joint vote of the National Associa-
tion Of the high court of the Mo-
hammedan church and the military
chiefs of the constitutional party
Abdul Hamid was that morning de-
posed as Sultan of the Turkish En-
pire. Succeeding this action, Mo-
hammed Rechad Effendi, brother Of
Abdul Hamid, was proclaimed Sui
tan amid the widest enthusiasm.
While the ceremonies of Rechad' s
accession to the throne were In pro-
gress an enormous crowd gathered
outside the royal palace shouting.
The new Sultan has been prac-
tically a prisoner for the last %
years. He is 65 years old and, while
not a man of experience In the af-
fairs of government, he will be con-
trolled by the army and the church.
A later dispatch gives report that
Abdul Hamid Is dead and while this
dispatch is not confirmed IL is gen
orally credited in Constantinople.
II is to be hoped that Turkey will
now take its place among the ad-
vanced nations Of the world. 1t has
long been a disgrace to civilization
