Rate to Grants Pass Unjust.

A press dispatch from Salem dated
the 18th says the State Railroad

of $l.S7 per 100 pounds on oranges
and lemons in less than carload lots
from Pomona, Cal, to Grants Pass
is an unjust and unreasonable rate,
and has ordered the Southern Pacific
company to reduce the rate to $1.S7
per 100 pounds or less If the COM

MILLIONS IN SIGHT
GOLD AND COPPER
Much Work in Sight for the Pro-
posed New Railroad to be
Built.

One of the richest mineral sec
tlons in the state of Oregon lies 80
miles south of Grants Pass. 1t Is
mineral zone which abounds in gold
and copper. From the point where
the district commences it extends to
the coast, a distance of sixty miles.
The zone is 20 miles wide from
northwest to southwest, fairly join
ing on to the famous mining camp
Of Galice The two districts taken
together have gold enough to pay
the national debt.
That country has been and still is
without transportation, but the pro-
posed railroad to the coast will pass
directly through the big, rich terri
tory, and when this road is once
assured practical mining men with
abundant capital will locate on the
many known ledges and will avail
themselves Of the transportation to
develop large producers OF gold and
copper. The values in the section
mentioned will alone Justify the con-
struction of a railroad, as it will
open a popular and short route to
the smelters on Puget Sound. Steam
ers will take the ore at Crescent City
and at a low rate will cary 1t to its
destination, let 1t be Tacoma or other
points
Mining men are taking deep in
terest in the country mentioned, and
every few days this class of people
come to Grants Pass and quietly
make their way south to Taklma
and beyond. Invariably on their re-
turn they show a deep interest in
the railroad situation and get the
general opinion at this point as to
the chances for the commencement
Of railroad construction.
Edgar Thompson and associates,
Of Salem and Portland, are develop
ing a property five miles south of
Takilma, which, it is thought, will
become producer within a short
time; that Is as soon as tunnels can
be driven into the mountain abour
800 feet, where 1t will cut strong
vein of very rich ore The main
ore body will then be followed, open-
ing tunnels in two directions. These
latter workings will permit stopping,
by which means a large amount of
ore will be secured There are other
mining people in the district to the
number Of several hundred, all wait
ing for the time when transportation
will be available.
These things are mentioned to
show in part the necessity for
railroad The mineral bodies, the
vast lumber interests, the constantly
increasing agricultural development.
all point to heavy tonnage for
railroad through that couatry It
will be hard to find a count, with
more and richer resources than the
section between Grants Pass and
Crescent City

CHICKEN PROVESHUMAN
IRATE AMATEUR GARDENER SHOOTS
SLEEPING COUNTRYMAN.
Polish Youth Is in Serious Condition as
Result of Hasty Aim at Sup
posed Fowl.

FOND DU LAC, Wis, June A.
[Speciall .-Mistaking the hair Of Victor
Pocus for the feathers Of a chicken,
George Skapolk, a fellow Pole, fred a
charge of shot into Pocus' head early
Monday morning. Physicians have re-
moved scores of leaden pellets from the
youths head and his condition is serious.
Skapolk has fed.
The shooting took place in the town
of Friendship, where Skopolk has had
much trouble trying to do some garden
ing. NeighborN' chickens had done so
much damage lately that he swore he
would kill the next fowl he discovered
on his premises.
Pocus, all unaware of the situation,
arrived here tired out with long walk,
and noting cozy spot in one corner of
Skopolk's garden. the young Pole
stretched his tired limbs and soon was
asleep. Just the back Of his head was
visible when Skopolk, wakened by the
and opened the back door.
To Skopolk's sleepy eyes the dark hair
of his slumbering countryman resembled
the feathers of the most obstreperous of
the bothersome chickens and without a
minutes wait Skopolk blazed away. He
was horrorstricken when the cries Of a
human being in agony told of his mis-
take.
Skopolk summoned aid and the wound
ed man was assisted to hospital. Sko-
polk then fed and has not been seen
Since. However, it is not likely that he
will be prosecuted as the officials have
determined that the shooting was acct
dental. and the wounded man himself
does not blame his countryman.

Government Claims That Methods Now

FOLLOWS Giving COST" INQUIRY.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June 14.-Suit to dis
solve the Chicago butter and egg board
On the contention that it is combination
In restraint Of trade and a violator Of
the Sherman antitrust law was filed in
the United States circuit court Monday
afternoon by District Attorney Sims.
Charging the board with maintaining
an illegal monopoly of the butter and
egg market, with arbitrarily fixing prices
through the medium of quotation COM
mittees and with a conspiracy in re-
straint of competition even of certain of
its own members, the government began
civil proceedings under direction Of At
torney General Wickersham, after some
evidence had been heard by the federal
grand jury.
1t is said the civil action was de-
termined upon in preference to making
an effort to have the board and its of
6cers and directors indicted by the fed
eral grand jury.
Defendants Named in Suit
The individual officers of the corpora
tion made defendants in the dissolution
suit are: Gordon w. Bull, president;
{ Charles S. Barden, first vice president;
NJ. II. Hchengreen, second vice presi-
dent; A. ]. Strigel, secretary; K. Rut-
ledge, treasurer, and Charles B. Ford,
John W. Lowe, Thomas W. Brennan
and E. A. Kelly, directors.
| The prayer of the governments bill is:
! That the board be decreed combination
| That all Of the acts by which the comb1-
nation and conspiracy were affected be de-
clared violations Of the Sherman law.
! That the board be dissolved and Its OFF,
GERS and directors be perpetually en5oined
| from further entering into any combination
or agreement to fix quotations or prices for
butter and eggs.
/ That the board officers. directors and
members and it's quotation committee be
| enjoined from holding any further meetings
| whatever.
! A temporary injunction will be asked
! pending a final decision of the case as
soon as service can be obtained on the
i defendants named in the bill.

mony concerning the operations of the

Just brushed my cheek, and fingered
