MEDFORD SPORTS
DOG IN THE MANGER

MEDFORD, Feb. 23.-Should
Governor West fail to use his veto
on the Pierce fish bill, as passed Dy
the last legislature, the agitators OF
the upper Rogue River valley Will
endeavor to invoke the Initiative
and bring it back to a vote OF the
people, with what result it would be
hard to say, other than to tie the
legal machinery up in two years oil
red tape.
The question as to whether or mol
the bill as introduced by the Hume
interests is good, bad or Indifferent
can not be decided until after 1t mas
been given a fair trial. There are
people in Medford who are no
pleased with the prospect OF con
tinuation of the fight.

NEW BUSINESS TO
START HERE MONDAY

Another point in the development
of Grants Pass is marked by another
new business which will be inaugu-
rated in this city on Monday, Feb
ruary 9th, by A. r. and Frank Nc
Lean. The business will be a COM
plete automobile livery service.
This firm will give the people of
Grants Pass and surrounding coun-
try a service of the highest class
and of such convenience and reason
able ness in price that no one may
hesitate to call it at any time. Town
work will be speciality, and with a
regular flat rate it will be possible
to call this service to meet train,
go to the theater, to the home of a
sick person, or to do any of the large
number of things for which such a
service is needed A special serv-
ice will also be given to physicians,
real estate men, pleasure riders,
camping and fishing parties and
distance trips Trips rates are going
to be made to Crescent City, Crater
Lake and other long-distance points.
Two big five-passenger, EMF tour
ing cars will start the service, and
the firm will add to the equipment
as needed.
These young men are well-known
here, both being residents of the
city. That the Mclean Auto Liv-
cry will become very popular is evil
dent by the number of engagements
that have already been made for this
service for the coming spring and
summer A. h. Mclean is state
manager OF the National Protective
Legion, position he will continue to
hold, while Frank Mclean will de-
vote his entire energy to the auto
livery

4. S. WOOLLEY ON
CRESCENT CITY PROJECT

Hon. H. S. Woolley arrived tnlS
morning from Portland and spent
the day here looking after business
matters and calling on numerous
friends. 1t will be remembered that
Mr. Woolley is at the head OF the
harbor project at Crescent City and
Il can be said for him that he is max
ing a success of his efforts in that
direction. Crescent City is growing
at a rapid rate and from all appear
ances il has a grand future before
il. The time will soon come Wheh
Grants Pass will have direct railroad
connection with that progressive
town and it will become an import
ant shipping port for many OF the
products of Josephine county. Mr..
Woolley was rounded up by a
Courier representative this morning
who asked him about things over at
Crescent City and vicinity. In reply
to questions he said:
"The work at the harbor is pro-
crossing rapidly. The engineers
have found no difficulty in surveying
the outer .harbor and find no OBJ
struction along the line of the ship
canal from the ocean to the inland
lake. A detailed report covering es-
Inmates of cost will be completed
within the next two weeks.
"Unless some unforeseen diff
Guilty should arise active construc-
tion work will be commenced within
sixty days, arrangements having
been made to finance same. The
work for the laying out of the pro-
posed city will be started within
thirty days, as the surveyors have
already made contours and run the
lines for the principle streets A
map is being prepared and wher
completed a copy of same will appear
in The Courier.
Mr.. Woolley Is optimistic over the
prospects of the future and growth
of the now ocean metropolis and see
no reason why the largest city be
tween San Francisco and Portland
should not grow up around what il
now conceded by both engineers ant
all practical seamen to be the bes
harbor between the Golden Gate ant
the mouth of the Columbia river.
Mr.. Woolley will leave on thu
morning train for San Francisco
where he will spend day or tw'
looking after business matters, afte
which he will take steamer for Cres
cent City or Woolleyport, as the ney
harbor is to be called.
