GOVERNMENT SHOULD HELP
THE MINER.

Some united effort should be
made by the people of Josephine
county to move the line of the forest
reserve at Galice back ten miles to
the south, as that part of the dis
trict being in the reserve is a great
detrlment to the development of
all the mines in this famous camp.
The facts are 1t should never have
been included in the reserve for
the reason that mining has been 60
ing on in that section for more than
fifty years, and fully $30,0O0,000 in
gold has been mined by the pioneers
and coined by the government and
later put in general circulation.
The men who have been interest
ed in the development of these mines
have done enough to be entitled to
all the benefits the federal govern
ment can bestow on them and at
this late day they should not be
annoyed by the restrictions incident
to forest regulations. II the people
generally Of the county will ask for
the release of the ten mile strip
there is every reason to believe the
request will be granted. Removing
the restrictions of the forest reserve
will be great help to the 300
miners who are at work developing
many promising properties. The
The county court, the commercial
club and a united effort of the peo-
pie will bring about the change ask
ed for. A condition has been reach
ed in mining in the Galice district
which demands capital and this
must be secured with as little delay
as possible, and therefore let us all
get together as one man and ask
the government to help the miner
by pushing the forest reserve line
back at least ten miles. This is a
matter of vital interest to Josephine
county, for II means the introduction
OF large capital to develop some of
the best mineral properties in the
state

That Illinois Bridge.

Editor Courier: Much has been
said and discussed about the upper
bridge, which crosses the Illinois at
the Beers place, about four miles
south of Takilma. The bridge in
question has history which may be
interesting to many readers of your
paper and to all the voters of the
county. In the first place this
bridge was built for Classy Bow, a
Chinaman who for years ran a pack
train to Happy Camp, and who still
lives in Kerby. Bow paid $500 for
the bridge and the county court gave
an additional $40 to have the bridge
made wide enough for two horse
teams. This bridge was in use for
many years by all who went to or
from the Happy Camp mines and by
the foresters and others. The
bridge was kept in good repair by
the county. Suddenly one day
parties who had crossed the bridge
found on their return that there was
no bridge, only the scattered timbers
and wreckage caused by a charge oi
dynamite. There was naturally some
excitement caused by the bridge be.
ing blown up and it was ascertained
that it was blown by Sam Egger al
the order Of James Logan, at that
time county commissioner, and sup,
posed to be by the order Of the
county court because the bridge was
unsafe, Notwithstanding the fact
that the stringers had been renewed
and the bridge generally repaired

a few days before the blowing uT

river with a block and tackle. Mr.
Logan gave out the information thai
the bridge was unsafe, but nothing
was said about it until the bridge
was destroyed. The county judge

court did not know about the affair
until afterward, when they were in
formed by outside parties. Oscar

CURT|SS' NEW MON0PLANE
EXPECTED TO DEVELOP So-MILE-
 ARMOUR SPEED.
Aviator Experiments With New Ma chine He Expects to Fly at
 International Meet.

Hammondsport N. Y, Oct 20.-TheI announcement that Glenn H. Curtiss will try out new mOnoplane type of racing aeroplane at the Belmont Park tournament follows a long period of experimentation with the new ma chine here.
 MT. Curtiss does not designate his new aeroplane however as a mono plane" He prefers to call it a single surface" machine Stricely speaking, it is a near monoplane" as the lower plane surfaces are practically elimi- mated, while at the same time the area of the upper plane is materially re. duced in the interest of lightness and speed. However, it does not resemble in any way the monoplane type in fa- vor abroad.
 The chassis of the new, racing machine is substantially similar to that of the Curtiss biplane. It has surface of only about 15O square feet, but it carries motor of 65 horsepow- sr and is expected to develop a speed of more than so miles an hour.

 Her screams brought aid and Hinds fled, taking refuge in the deserted house, where het was soon surrounded.
