ONLY TWO, SHOULD HAVE BEEN TWENTY

Grants Pass has no occasion to feel proud of its attend
ance work at the meeting of the Oregon Development
league at Salem 1t was understood that goody num-
Der of our prominent citizens to have been in attend
ance but it finally developed that only two men from this
city put in appearance and they were A. T. Barnard
and George s. Calhoun All honor to these patriotic bust
ness for their loyalty to the city in which they live
But what shall be said of those of who failed to be
there7 We owed it to ourselves to become interested in
that statewide movement and to have done our share
toward rpresentng the Rogue River valley of which we
are all so proud We can look back and that
great opportunity lost to stand shoulder to shoulder
with the two gentlemen who held up the banner of Grants
Pass and kept the faith thus saving the reputation of the
city It plain that bundered for in no other
way could it have happened This matter should be dis
cussed at the next meeting of the Commercial club Let
the members ask themselves what the club is for if it is
not to look after the proper representation of our city and
county just such occasions The development league
occupies first place in the mnorant work of building up
the state and at its meetings our land interests

fore charge on the taxpayer of the future 1t has been
generally conceded that the permanent road If properly
constructed would last with annual repairs from 100 to
thousand years or Only slight repairs are required
on such roads to keep them up to proper standard
The roads built in Rome nearly 5000 years ago yet
fine highways and from present appearances will, with
occasional repairs last for all time There roads in
ENGLAND built during the century before Christ which
are Still good highways even today In the state of New
jersey they have built many roads OF permanent char

commonwealth claim that these the best investments
the taxpayers have made in all these years
Coming down to the practical part OF this subject the
Question comes squarey before the property owners OF
Josephine county to whether they shall 60 on spending
money year after year certain dirt roads, will they
issue bonds at low rate of interest and build permanent
roads which with slight repairs annually will last for
many generations 1t is true that there places
lin the county where the soil and the drainage will permit
the building of dirt roads which if rounded up and rolled
with heavy dirt roller will make good roads, provided al
ways that the king drag kept in frequent use and other
repairs made often they needed There are sos
however of which good roads not be made and this
should be recognized especially along well travelled
highways and consequently these need to be treated with
the permanent highway methods. The permanent roads

eraons Josephine county has cheap labor, but the
demand for good roads is great here it in Eng

The good roads advocates of this county have long urged
the commencement of the work. They have carried
the matter along educational lines until large majority
of the property ready to vote on the question

manner They only await the nans which the county
court may have to reveal.

THE NEW CITY OFFICIALS

Grants Pass is making history very rapidly Yester-
day the people went to the ballot box and expressed their
preferences as to the officials who to manage the al
fairs of the city for the next twelve months 1t was an
election highly credtabe to all engaged and the result Will
be that the growth and prosperity of Grants Pass will
nue throughout the year 1911 The men chosen yester
day can be depended upon to do their whole duty IN the
way of street paving sewer building and all other things
which may be demand by up-to-date property owners
who know the Importance of keeping in the van Of pro-
gress During the year 1911 many more streets will be
paved and sidewalks ad for it is we'll understood that
beautiful city must have beautiful streets Inc Courier
extends welcome as well congratulations to the mayor
and council elect and it can assure them in advance that
their abors will be appreciated by the property owners
and citizens generally who are looking to them to carry
forward the work of building here an industrial and com
mera center worthy OF the rich soil and fine climate OF
the Rogue river valley There is certainly nothing to
interfere with making here city noted for its educational

REDUCING THE COST OF LIVING

There is hope the people of the United States have
in meeting and overcoming the advance in nearly every
article consumed by the people and this is the "back to
the farm" movement For fifty years the great cities of
the country have been gathering in population not only
from abroad but from the farms of every state in the
union The time has when the tide is running
the other way From every city families are seeking
homes in the country and becoming pro-
ducers and this in time will make living cheaper in the
cities What need today is wheat for flour more
canned productions, beef pork and mutton. The
"back to the farm" movement will help greatly along
these lines and present conditions will induce people o
seek the farm desirable place to make living for
ones family good farmer can raise nearly everything
that his family eats and he will have enough to sell to buy
clothing and other supplies which come from the city
The present demand for land is increasing the value of
farms in the market and the upward tendency will con-
tinue right along for years to come The agricultural
colleges in the different states are playing an important
part in creating demand for land. They have demon
strated that farming be made profitable business
and gone step farther and made the calling respectable
in the eyes OF the world The philosopher said that know
ledge power and the agricultural college has proven
clearly the truth OF this saying 1t has long been known
in all civilized countries that the farmers constitute the
superior strength of nation The country that possesses
intelligent and successful farmers will at all times com
mand the respect of the world All classes are beginning
to realize the truth of this and hence the popularity of
sne oack 10 he larm movement 1nese tnlngs account
for the increasing numbers who coming to the west
seeking homes in the rural districts Josephine county
is getting it's share of these and they are coming every
week now instead Of taking advantage of the oneway
cusion rates The reader can understand this when he
notices the great number of strangers on our streets
every day in the year. Nine out of ten of these men you
never saw before come here in search of farming lands
These conditions make the outlook for Grants Pass and
the surrounding country very bright We have for
all and when we have good roads throughout the county
the demand will be for lands farther afeld and this will
help to make Grants Pass city of great commercial i'm
portance.

effectiveness of our navy Failure to fortify the canal
would leave us in the possession of rights we would be
powerless to enforce
I can not close this reference to the canal without

The president shows breadth Of vision worthy OF his
high position. Without the legislation mentioned the
big combines would get all the advantage of the canal in
stead of the people By all MEANS congress should act on
the recommendations of Mr.. Taft.

A NATIONAL PUBLIC BENEFAcToR

Some one has dug up the who first introduced the
plan of federal reclamation of the arid lands of the west
1t is shown that Henry A. Coffeen of Wyoming made
speech in congress sixteen years ago what he calls the
irrigation problem He set forth the main lines of argu
ment later used by others of the advocacy of law and it
was his idea of making the endless chain of expendng
by the government the millions necessary for reclamation
of the arid lands He outlined the entire plan and urged
its adoption in the lower house. of which he was member
That speech, we told, was eloquent with great
thoughts which will ring down the ages Among other
things he said rhere undeveloped empire sleeping

PROMINENT WOMAN
. SMUGGIES JEWELRY

NEW YORK, Dec. S.-Mrs. Theo-
dore Shontz was ordered today to
appear before the surveyor of the
port to explain the presence in her
baggage of $4,000 worth of jewels
seized when her trunks were landed
from the steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der
Crosse.
Mrs. Shontz said that failure to
declare the gems was the result Of
ignorance of the law She said she
took $4,000 worth of gems to Eu-
rope to have them exchanged for
more fasionably cut stones and that
she did not think the exchange
would require a declaration. Mrs.
Shontz' declaration of personal
goods was $3.50. Her hearing will
come up tomorrow.
In 1908 a dressmaker told the au-
thorities there was $4,000 worth
of smuggled gowns in the Shontz'
home. Shontz at that time satisfied
President Roosevelt that no fraud
had been committed and the case was
dropped,
