NORTH 9Th ST. PROPERTY
OWNERS WANT PA WING

A meeting Of the property own
ers OF North Sixth street was held
Monday night to discuss the manner
of improving the street In front of
their property and to confer with the
city council.
The meeting was called to order
by John Randle, with Fred A. Will
liams as secretary, and a general
discussion Of pavements and costs
was INDUCED In. j. H. Ahlf pro-
posed dirt grading with granite
walks, while II. l.. Wilson declared
himself in favor OF hard surface
pavement.
Tom .Fuson. requested lnforma-
tion regarding the Clark -Henery
pavement, but this was objected to
on account Of the possibility of the
job being spoiled by material not
properly made. Mr.. Fuson moved
that a committee be appointed to In
vestigate paving the Warren Con-
struction company makes a tenta-
tive bid of S2.12 on.
Engineer Hobson stated that bit
luminous macadam can be laid for
less than $3.50 and is virtually the
same as bitulithIc, excepting the
basic and binding. A 30-foot road
way with 3-foot strip for water
bound macadam would cost s5.25
per running foot each side
A committee composed OF Messrs.
Kesterson, Fuson and Mcpherson
was appointed to investigate the cost
OF different kinds Of pavement and
ascertain the wishes OF property
owners.

CITY COUNCIL FINISHES
LARGE AMOUNT OF WORK

The city council held its regular
meeting at the city hall Thursday
night and transacted the following
business:
The street committee reported .fav-
orably on the petition of the resi-
dents of B street for the macadam-
izing of that thoroughfare and the
city surveyor will commence the ne
cessary preliminary work.
A petition signed by the property
owners on B street, between Sixth
and Seventh streets, asked that the
street be paved with standard btu
lithic pavement. The petition was
referred to the street committee.
M. c. Ament presented a plat and
deeds for the extension of M street
east to the city limits. Relative to
this matter Mr.. Ament agrees to deed
to the city the land for the street and
also grade and improve the same.
The light committee recommended
that lights be placed at the corners
of Oak, Laurel and West streets and
the auditor and police Judge notified
the light company to put the lights
in. Instructions were also given the
light committee to notify the light
company to replace many Of the in
candescent lights in different parts
of the city with new lights as many
are becoming very dim.
Hotels and stores and some resi-
dents have been very negligent In
dumping garbage in the alleys and
/ the matter was referred to the health
committee for investigation and rec
ommendation of some way to remedy
the practice.
There is much of Ninth street that
has never been dedicated to the city
and, consequently, retards improve
ment on that thoroughfare. The
street committee, together with the
city surveyor, was instructed to con-
fer with the owners of property
where the street is not dedicated and
see II they cannot get deed for the
same.
1t was the sense of the council that
flush tank be constructed at the
terminal Of the Eighth street sewer.
1t was decided that all city en-
ployes be compelled to go to the
mayor for orders for acquisitions be-
fore purchasing anything for the
city. Under the new system no goods
are supposed to be sold to the city
unless requisitioned.
Citizen Wing, who is the watch
man at the box factory east of the
city, was made a special policeman
without pay.
The council meets again the first
Thursday in March.

blue print made OF the same, show
Ing the necessary grade and the work
generally TO be done to make this
highway after the pattern made BY
the general government, the work or
grading was commenced by four
teams this morning and will be push
ed to completion as raHdly as pos.
sible. The starting OF this piece OF
road marks new era OF road build
ing In Josephine county. We have
had spots of gravel roads, stone roads
and the like, but this IL the first
piece OF permanent road that has
been undertaken. The county court
Is deserving OF credit, even II the
starting Of the work has been long
delayed, for actually commencing 10
build. This piece OF sample road will
show what can be done with the ma
terla at hand for road construction.
The citizens OF the southern part OF
the county who will have to pass
over this piece OF up-to-date road
will rejoice over the Improvement.
while those OF Grants Pass will take
tho trouble to watch the work as
construction goes on. Everybody
will say lot the good work 70 on.

TURNS DOWN CHICAGO-ROGUE
RIVER PROPOSITION
BOARD DIRECTORS ELECTED
Irrigation District Is Advocated
Southern Pacific Company
Will Not Oppose

The annual meeting of the Jose
phine Irrigation and Power company
was in session Tuesday afternoon at
the Commercial club. Every seat in
the room was occupied and extra
benches and chairs had to be brought
in to accommodate the large num-
ber of stockholders in attendance.
There was deep interest manifested
and everybody seemed anxious to
participate in the annual gathering
of those who have for the past two
years taken an interest in irrigation.
Every part of the county which will
be under irrigation bitches was well
represented and many large ana
small stockholders residing in this
city were present.
The meeting was called to order
at 2:20, with President Gilkey in the
chair Secretary j. G. Riggs was in
his place with quantity of reports,
resolutions, communications and
other documents ready to be used
when called for First came the
reading of the call for the annual
meeting. This was followed by the
reading of the minutes of the previ-
Gus meeting. Next came the read
ing of the resolution of the board
of directors, recommending the or
sanitation Of an irrigation district
10 carry forward the work which the
Josephine County Irrigation and
F0wer company has had in hand for
the last two years. This subject has
been thoroughly discussed in the
columns of The Courier and has
been recommended by many promin-
ent persons, including the Honor
able Stephen Jewell, Judge of the
county court.
A communication of considerable
length was received from Geo. Sand
ers, manager Of the Chicago-R
River company, proposing to furnish
water for irrigation this year. The
communication also contained a pro-
position to furnish permanent
water supply.

BRIDGE CONTRACT FOR
RAILROAD IS LET

Undertaking to build railroad Is
no small matter, as experience will
teach In every instance. There must
be ability, knowledge and money, for
progress without these little can be
accomplished. These qualities be-
come evident as the work progresses
on the Grants Pass and Rogue River
railway Everything moves like
clock-work and goes forward at
surprising pace Every day the gain
is perceptible, and those having the
work in charge show both ability
and enthusiasm of the kind that ac-
accomplishes results.
Engineer ]. e. Gardner, in speak
ing of the construction work, stated
to representative of The Courier
that II the weather continued favor
able for a number Of days longer
they would put 20 or more teams at
work grading between the Southern
Pacific track and the river. This
point is low and grading work is inn
possible while the ground Is wet.
He has made reQuisition for 1000
ties, which have been ordered from
the Three Pines Lumber company,
with delivery limited to February 25.
This number will be sufficient to
complete the side trackage and the
main line to the river. Orders have
also been placed for 100000 feet Of
lumber for the bridge across Rogue
river, and $500 lineal feet Of pillng
for false work to be used In con-
structing the permanent span. The
requlsitlon also calls for the immedi-
ate delivery of 5000 feet of steel
rails, switch, switch stand, switch
plates, track bolts, track spikes, etc, }
sufficient to complete the road as
far as Rogue river.
The securing OF sufficient teams
was for time a serious problem,
but there are now on file applications
OF 100 teams, 20 OF them being
from Lebanon. It Is expected that
the full number will be at work in
the near future. Grading work was
commenced on the south side of
the river on Friday morning under
Contractor Durkee with six teams
and scrapers, and on Monday, II the
weather continues favorable, the
number of teams at work will be
Is or 20.
Engineer J. r. Gardner, of the
Grants Pass and Rogue River rail-
road informed The Courier that the
company had this morning let the
contract for constructing the tempor-
ary structure on which to build the
permanent span across Rogue river
to the Columbia Bridge company, OF
Portland, work to be commenced
March AZ and completed within 45
days. Rails will be laid on the tenn
porary structure to allow the pass
age of trainloads OF building ma
terial necessary for the construction
OF the road. Many cars OF rails and
other road building material will be
required for use on the south side of
the river and to await the completion
OF the bridge would mean a delay of
months. or the hauling OF material
by team, which would be prohibit
tive.

dents report be received and adopt
ed:
For a temporary relief we have
hoped that arrangements agreeable

ever, that some satisfactory agree
ment can be now made where the
rights can be taken over by district
without litigation. the price to be
agreed upon or arbitrated, and fur
ther, that they, the Golden Drift
Mining company, through their prop
er representatives, acknowledge by
stipulation the cancellation Of the
old contract between the Josephine
County irrigation and Power COM

points safeguarded we most urgently

floor to say that proper consideration
had not been given to the PROPOSE

Southern Pacific company was re.
ceived and read. In the message Mr..
Fenton, their attorney, stated that
the railroad company would not op-
pose the organization OF an irrigation
district. This telegram was received
with great satisfaction. as II had bees
