the shining condition OF the great
monsters and one of the younger mem
bers Of the party. standing near the

The gunner whose duty It was to

had no sooner moved away than he
seized a cloth. sprang to the cannon
which the young lady had touched. and
commenced rubbing 1t fiercely. all the

The officer OF the deck noticed his

"Flattery." said Smith. bitterly.

The organization OF the new
board of trustees and the selection
of the various committees ot the
Idaho Springs Commercial Asso-
citation places it in good working
order. 1t should be the duty OF
each com mmi,tee and each member
thereof to perform the duties per
tanning thereto in a prompt and
unhesitating manner. 1t Is
through the active AID concerted
work of these commit eemen that
the work of the entire organiza-
ton will be effective. Not only
should this unanimlty prevail in
the organization bu, there should
also be the same conditions pre-
vailing throughout Tue mining IN
dustry and business relations
The worst kind of a knocker Is
the man who cannot see anything
good outside of his own work ard
opinion and the man who says
its no USE and stays away
from meetings, does nothing to
assist in organized effort. 1t is
from this class that criticism is
heard and not from the men who
work to build up the organization
The Association solicits honest
criticism but ignores narrow-mind-
ed disgruntled fault finding from
those who do nothing but kick.
1t welcomes the corporation OF
every person who is interested
in the welfare of the camp what
ever may be his vocation. 1t
wants membership of all wheth-
er he be a mine operator or a
miner, a business man or a clerk
a professional man or a laborer.
The foundation laid during the
past year has been a substantial
one on which to build. An ac-
tive Commercial Association can
be great help to a community,
but there must be a continual
putting of the shoulder to the
wheel and thus keep up the move
ment. Spasmodic efforts do not
accomplish substantial results. 1t
is the constant daily work and in
terest that tells the story of sue
cess. The membership roll should
count up several hundred in this
camp. What is of interest to one
class will be of advantage to all
classes. 1t matters not whether
the work is in the mining line
business affairs, good roads, sani-
tarium or other lines the success
of one has its fostering assistance
on the others. The board of
trustees is made up of men who
will do their full duty. Their
efforts should be backed up by
the com munity regardless Of indi.
vidual interests.

Big STRIKE
IS MADE AT
GRANTS PASS
LIMITED PRESS LEASED WIRE. !

Grants Pass, Or, April 25.-There
Us keenest interest here in the report
ed great gold strike at the Higgins
property on Baby creek, as reported
in The Journal Sunday morning. l..
c. Higgins, the Grants Pass assayer,
whogis owner, is out of communica-
tion at the mine, which is at the sum
NIT of the Baby creek and Rancheri
creek 20 miles northwest of Kerby
Josephine county.
The discovery was made 80 days
ago but was kept secret Gold is
said to exist in stupendous quanti-
ties. 1t is reported miners are on
their way with free ore that shows
$125 to the pan.
Gold was discovered in a porphyry
dixie 800 feet long The dixie lies
between serpentine and slate, and
goldstone occurs at the contact of
the dixie and the serpentine. The
man who made the strike at once re-
ported it to the lessees of the mine,
who Immediately notified Mr.. Hig-
gins, who was then in a hospital at
Portland. Higgins Immediately left
the hospital for Grants Pass, and is
now at the mine. 1t is understood
the lessees of the mine have less than
80 days before their lease expires.
Lessees are jubllant as the ore
said to be in sight makes them rich,
as well as Higgins.
Grants Pass has long been known
as the center OF great gold mine
district, and this strike confirms the
opinion.
Higgins is an old resident OF
Grants Pass.

Los Angeles, Cal, April 25.-While
James W. Mcnamara, his brother

Manigal, alleged dynamiters, two OF
whom are accused of wrecking the
Los Angeles Times plant, are speed
ing westward in the custody of de-
tectives, preparations were being
made here today for their reception
on their arrival.
Whether the men will be housed in
the city prison, at the county Jail or
In special place of detention fitted
up for their sole accommodation has
not been definitely decided. Chief of
Police Sebastian was scheduled to
hold conference with District At
torney Fredericks this afternoon, at
which time this and other matters
will be discussed. The district at
torney's Office will have sole charge
of the prosecution of the suspected
trio. Fredericks' force showed con-
siderable activity today and the ac-
tual work of framing his case is we'll
under way. The McNamaras will be
tried for murder. This was decided
after a lengthy perusal of the law and
such facts in the case as are now at
hand According to advices received
by Chief Sebastian, the party left
Trinidad, Colo, early today and is
now rushing across New Mexico. It
should reach Flagstaff, Arizona,
about sunset tonight. If the train
is on time the prisoners will be on
California soil shortly after midnight
tonight.
Beyond vague plan to meet the
train somewhere outside the city and
bring the prisoners into Los Angeles
in an automobile, arrangements for
the arrival of the party are still in
complete.

but he got no further for the mayor
interposed with. an objection that he
was not discussing the issue but go
ing into personalities and when the
chair ruled against the objection,
Durbin seemingly had forgotten that
he ever was sheriff, and launched off
on something else.
Councilman Durbin then proceeded
to state that he favored the issuance
of bonds for the building of bridges
and that the mayor must have misun-
derstood or misquoted him. He ia
vored bonds, he repeated, but he did
not believe in plunging the city in
debt-did not believe in going be-
yond it's resources.
With that he sat down and with
that the mayor resumed his chair
and began putting motions again
and the council to automatically vote
upon them and little later, when
an ordinance providing for an cleo
tion to be held on June 10 for the
issuance of bonds to the extent OF
100000 for the rebuilding of the
bridges washed away by the floods
it was enacted into law.

DODGE TAX ON
lNHERITANCES

That the state is being cheated out
of the greater portion of its inher-

Is the opinion of Governor West and
State Treasurer Kay, after an inves-
tigation of the subject and meeting
of the Board of Control, of which
they and Secretary of State Olcott
are the members, will be held this af-
ternoon to devise ways and means
whereby the state may get its full
share of the tax.
Governor West and State TreasVr-
er Kay have been examining the es-
tates from when the state draws an
inheritance tax for some time Cover
nor West said this morning that the
large estates had been, and were now
being appraised by appraisers at a
nominal value, and that the tax be-
ing secured from them by the state
was insignificant, when compared to
what it should receive. Just what
plan will be formulated to put an end
to the fraud being practiced by the
appraisers he was unable to say, but
he stated that the board was deter
mined to put an end to it, and also tc
change the present appraisement
made upon estates, so that the state
may receive from them its just tax

GAZING OF
The SEWER

Joe Klocoker, an Austrian working
on the sewer construction gang, was
so badly crushed by cave-in Satur-
day afternoon that he died at the Col
lege Hill sanatorium Sunday night.
Joe" as he was commonly known
was aged about 80 years, and was at
work at the bottom of the 20-foot
ditch when small patch of earth
fell from the side wall, the fall being
scarcely enough to cover the man.
He was quickly taken out and 1t was
thought that he was not hurt badly,
but examination revealed the fact
that his pelvic bone, the hips, had
been badly crushed and the bladder
ruptured, The injury was of such
character that there was little or no
hope of recovery and the death was
fully anticipated by the attending
physicians, Drs, Pernot and Johnson,
who say that such cases seldom ever
recover.
Klocoker had a wife and two chill
dren in Austria and had been in
America seven months.
This is the third accident at the
sewer ditch in recent weeks. One
man had finger cut off and another
had cash cut in his head by a
small stone kicked from the surface.

mayor and the council dramatically
exclaimed that he was opposed to
plunging the city in debt for the
building of bridges. He maintained
the people had voted the bond issue

In Old Fighting Trim.
During Councilman Durbin's har-
angue the mayor sat quietly in his
chair and listened, When Council
man Lowe arose to speak he mo-
toned to Councilman White to take
the chair and then he slipped down
to chair among the councilmen-
slipped into the chair from which he
used to rise from time to time in the
past, and raise his voice in behalf Of
the people and the apostles of pro-
gress.. He was in his old fighting
trim again. There was in evidence
the same old sarcastic smile and the
same old fire in the eye and those
who had seen him in the past rise
and lambaste the mossback element of
the council right and left knew there
