High School Location.

Editor Courier: As the date for
the vote on the high school II only
a week away, and as very little has
appeared in print regarding IT, | trust
you will find space for this letter.
The needs OF the present high school
have been apparent, not only to the
school board, but also TO those who
have children In high school. More
than u year ago the matter OF high
school building was seriously CON
sldered 10y the school board. but Il
was held over because by changing
aud crowdlng, the present building
could stlll be used. The time for
makeshtts has now ended. as the
present enrolment OF the high school
does not allow seating capacity In
the assembly room, and some Of the
classes are entirely too large A re-
construction Of the present building
Is not only an expensive thing. but
the relief would be only temporary
and In another year would place Ms

Street Arabs of Grants Pass.

Nineteen boys, who were complain
ed of to Judge Jewell, were put on
honor for three months, to report
themselves every thirty days, rather
than send them to the reform school.
Recently fifteen of those boys came
before the grand jury for encourage
ment; three of them reported stay
ing at home in the evening to get
their lessons, twelve reported being
out after supper until ten o'clock.
When asked where they were, said
they were on the street, at the depot
or anywhere. Three of them said
they had some time attended Sun
day schools, twelve had never been
to Sunday school. | don't know the
ages of these boys, but some had not
reached their teens, and ! would not
suppose the oldest was more than
fourteen. | don't know whether the
boys got encouragement from the
grand jury or not, but the grand
jury was not much encouraged by
the report of the boys.
Boys that spend their evening
hours and the hours OF the city Sun
day schools as they are spending
them, are not an encouragement to
the law and order element Of a city.
II they only make home a sort of
kennel to crawl into for a few hours
sleep they will never appreciate II
as anything else and will grow up
with their childhood affections for
1t blunted to carelessness for its
memory.
II such boys go wrong who will be
to blame for Il? The parents will
say the company they have been In,
or the Sunday school teachers and
officers that didn't get them into
the Sunday schools ] have known
such parents to say the Sunday
school boy is no better than mine,
but how few Sunday school boys 90
wrong compared with the many who
so wrong without having had the
influence Of a Sunday school. To
say nothing of the influence. the Sun
day school furnishes branch OF
education that the boys will not get
without II. II is worth something
10 man TO know something of the
Bible, whether he believes II or not.
Many give II dIscredit, but they are
those who know the least about Il.
How many boys in Grants Pass are
spending their hours In this way |
don't know, but as the parents re-
gard the future Of the boys they
should know where they are and

Smelter Ready to Blow ln-Big
Shaft Two Hundred Feet
Down.

The sinking of the big shaft which
is intended to go down a thousand

and already they are down 200 feet
This shaft will open up the mine in
way that will be of great import
ance and value to the stockholders

Thousand feet mineral of great value
will be blocked out. The work done
on this shaft and on the tunnels will.
fairly show the wealth in the mine.
The smelter is now fully COM
pleted and it is the intention to blow
in as soon as the roads get in con-
dition to haul coke from the railroad.
The coke bins above the smelter will
be enlarged as soon as the lumber
can be cut at the company's saw
mill Coke bunkers will also be built
on the railroad at Merlin so that
train loads of this material can be
handled if necessary. When work
commences at the smelter it will be
continued night and day without In
terruption. The capacity of the
smelter at present is 100 tons a day,
but this will be increased to 400 tons
as soon as the much needed trans
portation is brought about. General
Manager John F. Wickham, who had
been here a week or more, left last
week for Portland to look after
some important mining matters In
