c. Hall is an important event just
at this time In business circles OF
this city, as lumber is one of the
leading articles which enter into the
growth and prosperity of Grants

partners having had large experience
In handling lumber. Mr.. Pike In
past years was extensively engaged
In the building trade in the city OF

This line of business he followed fol-
years ana made q reputation rs one
of the great builders Of the coun

experience will enable him to intelli
gently serve lumber buyers who may
give his firm their trade.
Mr.. Hall was for twenty years II

LINES TO STOP HERE

The Oregonian of this morning
says that Judge Lovett, of the Harrir
man system, is making a tour of
the lines owned by that company on
the Pacific coast and that it is pos
sible that the Grants Pass and Cres-
cent City project will be considered
on this trip. 1t is probable that the
Lovett party will be in Grants Pass
within the next few days, and If so,
it is important that our citizens be
prepared to receive and properly en-
terrain these distinguished railroad
officials. The Oregonian is salts
fled that the road from here to the
coast will be built, providing the
company is able to sell the bonds ne
cessary to do the Oregon construc-

PAY YOUR TAXES NOW
AND SAVE PENALTIES

The present Oregon tax law has
been puzzle not only to many new
people but to those who have lived
in this section for years. For the
benefit of taxpayers the sheriff has
issued circular letter quoting the
law in substance as follows;
If you pay taxes in full on or be-
fore March Is, 1911, you will be al
lowed rebate of per cent. If
you pay taxes between March 10 and
the first Monday in April you will
not receive any rebate, neither will
there be added penalties or interest.
You may pay half of your taxes on or
before the first Monday in April,
and then have to and including the
first Monday in October, 1911, to pay
the second half. In case at least
one-half Of your taxes are not paid
on or before the first Monday In
April, the entire tax becomes delin.
quent and the law compels me tc
charge 10 per cent penalty and in
terest at the rate of per cent pei
month on your taxes until paid
Under a decision of the supreme
court no exemptions are granted fol
the year 1910.
Should you desire to take advan
tage of the per cent rebate by pay
ing your taxes on or before Marcel
IS, please deduct from the amour
Of your taxes as herein stated the
per cent, as It will save us returning
to you the change for the amount o
the rebate.

"Our slogan is 5000 in 1915" Mr..
Chaplin stated. He thought there
was no reason why the mark could
not be reached in 1918, and he be-
lieved it would be. That 1915 would
see Grants Pass the jobbing center
of southern Oregon with far great
er population than we even hope for
now. He spoke OF the new townsite,
South Grants Pass, and announced
that the sale of lots would commence
at l o'clock today and that all real
estate agents in the city would be
invited to join them in the handling
of the property. He also announced
several new features connected with
the sale of the property which arc
innovations to this section.
n. G. Pike put the crowd in q
laughing mood when he announced
that his was the first time he had
seen any men with ties at both ends.
Several appropriate stories followed
each other in quick succession. Mr..
fike said that progress was not the
grabbing of the dollar, but the gain
ing of people who were a credit to
the city and who would assist in bet
tering Of conditions.
A. ~ Parsons, chairman of the
Commercial club hotel committee
was called upon and he made the
announcement that the club, through
its efforts had induced o. B. Steward

tion on which will begin Immediately
The details of the plan were an.
nounced in yesterdays Courier.
President Bowen then made the
! presentation OF the silver spike tC

Railroad Oficials,sa Commercial Club,

ticipate in Ceremony

This morning dawned bright and
beautiful on the one great day in
the history of Grants Pass-the day
which is to become famous as the
occasion of driving the first spike in
the laying of the steel rails of the
Grants Pass and Rogue River rail
way. People were abroad early and
our friends from the country reach
ed town in great numbers. Every
body-men, women and children
were ready for the important cere-
mony to take place at II o'clock.
At 1890 the Grants Pass CONNER
cial Club band commenced to play
at the railroad park, and this was
quickly followed by the closing of
the stores, banks, and offices
throughout the city.
The schools were dismissed early
and from the high, Central, East and
Riverside schools files of children
could be seen marching toward the
center of attraction.
After the concert the crowd, num-
bering several thousand people,
started for the junction point where
the Grants Pass and Rogue River
railway connects with the Southern
Pacific. Here the switch was being
put in place. The ties were laid for
some distance and the first load of
steel was brought to the point as
the crowd was gathering.
A pile of ties served as the speak.
ers stand and at the appointed hour
of eleven President Hall invited the
railroad promoters, speakers and
city officials to the platform and in
few words reviewed the events con.
nected with the railroad enterprise
leading up to the present time and
called upon G. II. Clements, city at
torney, who spoke for the city ad
ministration. Mr.. Clements aa
nounced that he would not deal II
hot air" but would present facts
and he spoke of the events Of hlstor,
connected with the building OF tn,
Southern Pacific, and predicted evel
greater developments resulting Il
