CIRCUIT CUORT IS
NOW In SESSION

The Circuit Court OF Oregon for
Josephine county convened Monday
with Judge II. K. Hanna on the
| bench.
Considerable time was taken up
In detail work and not until Tuesday
morning did the Court reach the
jury cases, the first of which was
Best-Fuller Really Co. VS. II. b.
Alverson being tried and a verdict
rendered in half a day The plain
tiffs were given Judgment of s125.
The balance OF the time until the
drawing OF the jury for the Mack
case was wasted because of the de-
fault OF parties to be present and
ready for trial.
The last OF the jurors in the case
of the State VS., William Mack. for
the shooting OF Miles Cartr on De-
cmber 4, was secured Friday morn
ing and the taking OF testimony be
gan. Witness Foshay, the most i'm
portant witness in the case, is sick
at the Hotel Layton. and Friday af-
ternoon the Judge, jury and lawyers
called on him to his room TO take his
testimony.

SHERIFF. RUSSELL WAS
MALICIOUsLY MIsQUOTED

Sheriff Russell makes strenuous
objections TO the reference to him
in the columns OF last weeks Cour-
Ter and in the light of subsequent
investigation we have decided that
he had right to feel aggrieved.
This II case OF placing too much
faith In the statements of the Med
ford Wet" Daily. We quoted from
that sheet and touched very lightly
an the subject. and II will be remem-
bered the Courier pronounced the
Tribune interview Fake Now
we find that the statement OF Mr.
Russell and the statement accredited
to him are at yarience, as will be
seen by the following afiidavit which
the sheriff signed.
The statement accredited TO me
by the Medford Tribune OF Jan
uary 7. 1909. is false and misleading

RETURNS ARE RECEIVED
FROM The APPLE SHOW
Eight Premiums Received NOtwith-
standing Best Fruit Injured
In Transit

Josephine County makes another
big winning in the fruit business,
this time at the Spokane Apple Show.
It will be noticed that we took three
first premiums on apples, a first pre-
MUM on cider, one second, two
fourths and one fifth on apples.
This is certainly doing very well
when 1t is taken into consideration
that our best apples were injured on
the road to Spokane and were not
placed on exhibition. The following
are the prizes:
First on plate Granite Beauty
Cash, by G. A. Hamilton, Fruitdale.
First on Plate Tulpehockin-Cash
by w. l.. Robertson, Merlin.
First on Shannon Pippin-Cash by
J. II. Robinson, Wildervllle.
Fourth on Red Cheek-Medal and
Diploma, by c. A. Hamilton, Fruit
dale.
Fifth on Willow Twig, Diploma,
by G.. A. Hamilton. Fruitdale.
Fourth on Plate Collection-Med-
al and Diploma by Josephine county.
First on Apple clder-Medal and
Diploma. by Grants Pass Cannery.
Second, Canned apples-Medal, by
Grants Pass Cannery.
The only reason we did not get
first prize on Tokay grapes, was the
fact that grapes were not allowed in
the exhibit.
It will be seen that II pays to
make exhibits at these fruit shows
and the little that II costs Is not pay
Ing too dearly for the advertising
secured Our citizens generally
should remember that 1t is easy for
this county to win In these contests
as our fruit has the size, color and
flavor. This being the case we
should never miss an opportunity to
make display. Our genial and able
fruit inspector. II. c. Bateham,
called on the Courier and asked us
to urge our citizens generally to
examine the collection OF ribbons and
medals on exhibition In the Barnes
jewelry store window. These were
taken at the Spokane Apple Show.

AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY

II has been said by one OF the
wise men OF modern times that he
who makes two blades OF grass grow
where only one grew before, is a
public benefactor. Likewise II can
be claimed that the man who has
invented a new method OF clearing
land OF stumps without labor is ten
times n public beDefactor. This Is
what has been done by farmer In
the state of Wisconsin. He has dis
covered the following method of de-
stroying stumps: With two-lnch
auger, he bores hole about two
feet deep perpendlcularly into the
stump; then he pores into this hole
one pint OF equal parts OF nitric and
sulphuric acids. The hole is then
plugged up with a plug which has
been dipped in melted parafne.
In 30 days time It is said that
the stump 80 treated will be char
red pulp mass and can be spread
over the land as fertilizer. The
estimated cost is four cents for the
two ingredients used and add 10
minutes time for the hole In the
stump.
Just at this time there are hun
dreds OF people In this county who
would be greatly benefited by some
quick method OF getting rid OF
stumps Clearing land and getting
ready for planting orchards and
vineyards is an important industry
Just now around Grants Pass. II
those interesed will try this method
OF treating stumps and will report
their success to the Courier, they
will confer favor on the paper and
It's readers

Information from time to time they
would take interest and there would
be an improvement in municipal busi-
ness. Then the civic club can extend
its operations to the beautifying Of the
place, to the improvement Of Its trans
portation facilities, to its sanitation. to
the elimination OF grade crossings, to
the abatement OF the smoke nuisance
and multitude Of other good things
for Its town, all Of which will profit
the place in hard dollars. The club
may even devote part Of its time and
strength to the selection OF good men
for Office and the attempt to elect them.

can be done by the buyer TO protect
