VERY STUBBORN FIRE
Department Called to Wilcox Home
on Gresham Street TO Fight
Fire in Roof.

The fire department was called to
the home of H. P. Wilcox, 143
Gresham street, this afternoon to
fight a stubborn fire. The fire orig
mated in the kitchen and immediate
ly went up through the walls to the
garnet and roof. The mouse is two
stories with high basement, and
as that part of the city is supplied
by a small water main and that
much lower down that the city, the
fire boys found it hard proposition
and were compelled to climb tree
in order to effectively use a hose on
the roof. After a severe fight the
department succeeded in confining
the flames to the roof and attic. The
building is valued at about $4,000.
The damage is hard to estimate as
the entire building is flooded and
otherwise damaged. There was
$4,000 insurance on the building
and $500 on the furniture, both be-
ing in the Billings agency. This
probably will cover the loss on the
building but not upon the furniture.

TO REPAIR DAM.
Water Drawn Off at Gold Ray for
That Purpose.

The California-Oregon Power Com
pany began Tuesday letting the wa
ter out of the big dam at Gold Ray
for the purpose of cleaning the reser-
voir and making some repairs to the
dam where the timbers have been
damaged by drift wood during the
winter floods. 1t will take about
ten hours to empty the big reservoir
and a week or more to make the
necessary repairs.
1t has been seven years since the
dam was first filled with water and
during this time the power supply
of the valley was dependent on the
plant at Gold Ray, but with the com
pletion of the plant at Prospect and
the connection with the plants of the
power company in California it will
be possible to make the needed re-
pairs at Gold Ray.
A number of repairs to the fish
way are to be made and the crest
of the dam is to be raised so that
at low water the entire flow will be
over the center of the dam opposite
the fishway, giving a deep channel
which will guide all fish ascending
the stream into the fish ladder.

A transaction of more than ordi-

TALK ON ELECTRICITY
Lecture to BE Given Tuesday Even

One.

The Redding Searchlight has the
following to say of the lecture by Mr..
Pagan, which will be given by Prof.
F. d. Pagan at the Chautauqua tab
ernacle next Tuesday evening:
THE Dreamland theatre was
crowded to the doors last evening
and many were turned away for lack
of accommodations Instead of the
regular performance at the popular
show, Prof. F. d. Pagan, an expert on
lighting matters, was scheduled for
lecture.
THE speaker was introduced by
w. d. Egilbert, vice-president of the
Redding Chamber of Commerce. He
Immediately got into his subject, and
before many words were spoken it
was evident that he knew what he
was talking about. Much valuable
information was impaired to his
hearers. Lantern slides were USED
that the speaker might better i'm
press the audience, and the subjec
of electric lighting was gone ovel
from its invention to the presen
time, progress reported, and instruc
tions given to secure the best posi-
: BILE light with the least use of 'elec
tricity. The lecture was very inter
esting and invaluable to the users o
electric current"

tion, said his physicians today. Az
the end of that time, if he follows

planned for him, is expected that
he will be able to take up the cam

expecting to remain there most of
the day.
When the automobile carrying
Colonel Roosevelt reached the house
the colonel stepped out, declining as
sistance.
It's mighty good to be home
again." he said.
While a week was set as the
period of absolute rest, it was ex-
planned that for a considerable long
er time Colonel Roosevelt must avoid
hard work, and that it would be
impossible for him to attempt any
more speeches. Several weeks will
be required for the complete heal
ing of the wound and the knitting
of the fractured rib.
Roosevelt's train was stopped four
miles south of Oyster Bay to avoid
any crowd. Only a handful of per
sons had assembled when the colonel
stepped from the car and walked un-
assisted to an automobile. He was
driven Immediately to Sycamore
Hill.
The colonel was eating his break
fast when the train pulled into the
station. He made hearty break.

PROCRESSIVES

MEDFORD FLYING SQUADRON
COMES TO ASSIST.
CROWD AT CITY HALL MEETING
LocA and MedfOrd Speakers Uphold
Principles of the New Party-Pro-
gressive Club is Organized After
the Speaking.

The city hall was we'll filled last
evening when the Medford Flying
Squadron came up to assist the Ash
land progressives in holding rally.
The meeting was called to order by
Bert r. Greer, who after few re-
marks on the political situation in
troduced Colonel Sergeant of Med
ford, who addressed the meeting.
The colonel is intimately acquainted
with Roosevelt and spoke at length
to show the progressive leaders, alb
solute honesty and courage. He also
gave some time to the discussion of
woman suffrage.
He was followed by DR.. Rate of
Medford. The genial doctor, who
but recently was democratic MEM
Der of the South Dakota Legislature,
told of his reasons for espousing the
cause of the new party. DR.. Rate
was one of the 81 men present at the
now famous conference of governors
which induced Roosevelt to become
candidate, and SO may be said to
have been one of the official physi
clans at the birth of the new party.
He spoke of the need of the new
party and of the unselfish ends OF
the men behind it.
Attorney Fred Mears of Medford
spoke earnestly of the purposes of
the new party and of the fact that
it stood for minimum wage for
women and against child labor, on
both of which subjects the platforms
of both the old parties are silent.
Mr.. Mears declared that the progress
sive party needs the assistance of all
this year and declared that in four
and eight years it will win without
asking for assistance, as it is based
on the needs of the people and puts
human rights above property rights.
AT the close of the meeting a pro-
gressive club was organized with D.
J. Raudebaugh as president and B.
w. Talcott as secretary.

speech.
The colonel was carefully wrapped

TWO ASHLAND COMPANIES HAVE CONSOLIDATED

taken at par.
The company has ordered a dryer
of the ''like-fresh" system and eX-
poets to receive it about November
/. AS soon as it arrives they will be-
gin preparing evaporated apples.
This new system, it is said, produces
dried apple which when made into
pies cannot be distinguished from
the New England breakfast food
made from the fresh fruit
This is a move in the right direc-
ton. The future of the Rogue river
valley must be made successful by
the saving of the heretofore waste
products, and every move in that di-
rection is an advance.
The chemical department will re-
main at it's present location at the
foot of Ash street until the present
years output is completed, after
which it will be moved into quarters
to be erected for it on the property
of the Ashland Preserving Company.
