November, according to general

in business OF all kinds throughout
the entire country. Conditions in
Oregon are most encouraging at the
present time. The Oregonian Of
Sunday says that there have peen
marked gains in virtually every i'm
portant branch of business in Port
land and that the city begins the
last month OF the year with the solid
assurance that 1912 will be the ban
ner year in its history. The entire
state of Oregon, we are glad to say.

MURPHY ITEMS.

Eugene Carts took load OF baled
hay to Grants Pass Tuesday.
People in this part of the valley
are selling quite a lot of baled hay
OF late and should they keep up at
the rate they are going now it will
not be long before it is all gone.
Ed. Hannum is having lot OF his
old alfalfa ground broken up at
present and from what we can learn
he intends TO plant it to potatoes in
the spring.
Quite few of our local trappers
are in the skunk business this
season and a great number of those
beautiful little fur-bearing animals
are being put in shape to send to the
fur buyers of the east.
1t sure looks good to read about
the interest the citizens of Grants
Pass and vicinity are taking in the
Pacific-Interior railroad and when
people from the north and south be-
gin TO take such interest as they
have in the last few days, it goes to
show that it is not just home tall; as
used to be the case. This time We
will have the road and all who are n
doubt had better get ready to change
their tune.
We understand that the city of
Proyolt has offered all kinds OF in
ducements to the railroad from
Medford to the sea, having offered
them a free depot site and a whole
lot or right-of-way. The people mp
that way are very much alive and
are always ready to help any new
project along as they know that a
road through there will be the max
ing of that place.

POLITICS BEING OVER, now LET
US WORK.

The city election Monday was a
spirited contest, but 1t passed on
quietly and everybody Is glad that It
is over. The candidates, fortunate
ly, were well selected SO that 1t
made not 50 much difference to the
city which were chosen to hll the
Offices. Now that this municipal
election has passed into history, 1t Is
important that we drop politics and
join hands in building up greater
Grants Pass and the country that
surrounds it.
The Courier can AFFORD to dismiss
the subject by extending congratu-
lations to all parties and urging the
whole people to unite in the import
ant work now before this commun-
ity. We owe a duty to ourselves to
act in harmony on all matters relat-
ing to the upbuilding Of the city and
to fail in this particular will be a
mistake at this time which may end
seriously. From now on, let us take
up the subject Of cooperation and
each learn to do his part in this i'm
portant particular. We must find
out In practical way that in unity
there is strength and that the peo.
pie as a whole are the one power
that is invincible and unconquerable

while the receipts from others have
