vertisement for the property, and
would be Inspected by mining invest
ors during the congress and continue
to be inspected by many investors
throughout the year who would ar
rive In Grants Pass, as the ore will be
placed on permanent exhibition In
this city after the congress adjourns.
Mayor Myers, In the course OF q
brief address, assured all present that
he realized 1t would cost some money
to pull off the congress with credit
to Grants Pass, and that he would
cheerfully do all possible, financially
and morally.
The mayor declared that not alone
should display Of rich ore be iAade
but that q comprehensive display Of
the extensive low grade deposits be
on exhibition. Many investors were
seeking big low grade gold deposits
In preference to other kinds, and
these should have recognition.
M. j. Anderson and G. l.. Mangum,
two of the best posted men in jose
phine county on mines, were both of
the opinion that the proper step to
take was to get busy and see that no
chance for failure could come up.
The two were in favor Of men in the
several districts being employed to do
the work In their respective districts.
This plan was adopted, as outlined at
the beginning OF this article.
Others spoke along similar lines,
and all agreed to work with a will
toward making the mining congress a
success.
Chairman Blanchard stated that
In his opinion this event was to be a
golden chance for Grants Pass to
step to the front. Nothing" said
Mr.. Blanchard, "could be more prof
table to the city Just now than a
genuine mining boom It would
pour money into the city and make a
rich county. Even few hundred ex-
ira prospectors meant big profits for
Grants Pass merchants, as these men
were liberal spenders and had TO be
fed and clothed
It was the opinion OF all the COM
mitteemen who were present that the
business buildings should be deco
rated on the day Of the congress. Mr..
Calhoun, as chairman OF the decora-
tlon committee, was advised that bis
committee should decorate the opera
house, where the sessions OF the con-
gress are to be held, and the room TO
be used for the mineral display
Five hundred handsome badges OF
n design in keeping with the occasion
have been ordered.

BUILDING TRAIL FROM
KERRY TO THE CHETCO

Samuel Bowden has spent several
days In Grants Pass. coming in from
his mining headquarters on Canyon
creek, five miles west of Kerby.
Mr.. Bowden states that plans are
under way to build a first class trail
from Kerby due west to the headwat-
ers Of the Chetco river and Babyfoot
creek, In which region is located Hig-
gins Golden Dream mine. Mr.. Bow
den informs The Courier that from
Kerby to his place, distance OF five
miles, he has put the trail in fine
condition. From Bowden's on west
the trail Is rough Work will be
continued putting this portion in
shape, and when finished, there will
exist a trail OF total length of 1S
miles, which, in the language of Mr..
Bowden, will be the finest and
smoothest pack trail In the western
states"
The government has contributed
$500 to this work, and the people
OF the district have donated gener-
ously and will donate more. Mr..
Bowden states that the five mIles'al-
ready In shape will remain good, as
he has blocked all points which
would be washed by small torrents,
using heavy logs and otherwise pro-
tecting the trail. This same class OF
work will be continued from his
place on west to the Chetco country.
This trail will open to mining men
and prospectors the rich mineral re-
gion to the west and will be OF vast
benefit to the mining Industry OF the
county. The trail crosses the ILL.,
nols river, Josephine creek and Can

distance where they dropped off and
disappeared.
As the locomotive got under
way, engineer Schmidt, who had clip
ped away and had secured a gun
from a passenger, returned. He fir
ed four shots at the robbers without
effect.
Shortly after the robbery, the
West Fork telegraph operator noti-
fled Glendale and Deputy Sheriff
Lawson and posse lett at once for
the scene on hand car. They ar
rived two hours after the despera-
does had taken to the hills, but took
the trail forthwith.
At dawn today Sheriff Qune, who
had Just returned from an unsuccess-
full hunt for the robbers who rifled
the mail of the Shasta limited June
16, and a posse left Roseburg for
vest rOrk.
Deputy Sheriff Stewart and o posse
of five men left Roseburg early to-
day on a light engine for the scene.
Sheriff Quine is at Loon lake search
ing for the two desperadoes who rob
bed the mail OF the Shasta limited
at Yoncala June 16.
The bandit who first entered the
mail car was unmasked. When the
train stopped Conductor w. B. John-
son walked toward. the engine to as
certain the trouble. AS he neared
the mail car one Of the robbers step
ped forward and leveled his gun at
Johnson and said: go back or
shall blow your brains out"
Johnson turned and walked back
to the passenger coaches and warned
the passengers to hide their valuables
as the train was being held up.

Mr.. Bowers states that the rich
Canyon creek country Is the mecca
of gold hunters, many men going In
there seeking to locate on some of
the ledges carrying telluride ores.
Bowden has rich placer holding and
several quartz properties carrying
telluride gold ore. Ore from one Of
his claims was assayed last week in
Grants Pass and gave returns Of S5,-
442.70 a ton An adjoining claim,
owned by Mcpherson and Bower, fur
nished ore assaying 81 ,950.25 a ton.
None of these ledges has been de-
veloped to give an adequate idea OF
the amount Of ore or width Of ledge
at depth, yet the assays show what
class Of ore exists on Canyon creek;
and In the opinion OF Bowden, who
has given 80 years to mining in var
ious parts of the world, the district
will prove one Of the richest in the
west "All 1t needs is development"
says Mr.. Bowden, "and with real
mining some Of those ledges will
make riches for the owners"
Bowden will bring a display of tel
luride gold ore from his properties
to the mineral display, which will be
a feature of the mining congress in
Grants Pass, July IS.

PORTLAND, June 29.--The post.

ward Of $1,000 for the capture of

each of the trio, making a total Of
$5,400 on their heads.
According to ]. G. Van Gross, mail
clerk, in charge on the express, the
bandits made off with the contents Of
three packages Of registered mail
Two Of the pouches were consigned
to portland from Medford. The val
ne OF the contents is not known.
The express pulled into Portland
this forenoon without Clerk Umstead
who left II at Eugene to return to the
scene of the hold-up to be on hand
to identify the fugitives II they are
captured,
According to Van Gross, there were
five men In the gang, although only

In kicking several registered mail
sacks under the regular pouches and
they were not found by the robbers

New York, July 19.-Resuming
his testimony before the Hardwick
committee of the house which is prob
ing the sugar trust, President Wash
ington B. Thomas today denied that
the American Sugar Refining COM
pany is a monopoly and declared that
its policy had always been Give and
let live"
Thomas vigorously denied the init
nation that fair physical valuation
of the trust property would not ex-
ceed 100000, although it is pay
ing dividends on $$9O,0O0,0O0.
Gwen had the American Sugar Re-
fining company intended sitting COM
petition through the formation of the
present trust" said Thomas, 'it
would not have realized its ambition
In this respect the company is not a
success"
Thomas went on to say that the
trust was formed to fortify the Amer
ican Sugar Refining company against
competition, not to crush competi-
tion. He said he believed congress
could prevent the building of trusts
if it forbade the payment of all
bonuses to the companies which the
trusts absorb.
Earlier in his examination, when
asked what a trust is, Thomas had
said he did not know.
