INDIANS IDEA OF WEIGHT.

An Indian went hunting one day for
deer. After tramping through the
woods for some hours, he came across
herd and managed to kill one. He
shouldered it and started for market,
which was some five miles away. Now
of course, the longer he walked, the
heavier the deer got, and by the time
he reached the market, he was about
all in. He hung the deer on the scales
and stood looking at it with wonder
Finally he said to the man ugh! Lei
him hang awhile. From Norman q
Mack's National Monthly.

BILOXI DON'T WANT
GOOD government

jackson, July 15-The defeat Of the
commission plan of government submit
ted for adoption by the voters Of Bolixi
last week, is attributed chiefly to the
fact that the soft drink" dealers
could receive no assurance of protec-
ton in event the aldermanic form OF
government should be abolished.
Biloxi is one of the several cities
in Mississippi where the people have
evidently forgotten the fact that
statutory prohibition law is in exis-
tence. The phrase soft drink" is
misnomer as applied to the traffic in
beverages at that place, practically all
of the establishments selling every
thing from an humble glass Of beer to
the most fancy of mixed drinks.
Under the aldermanic form of gov
eminent these places are protected by
''near beer" licenses, sanctioned by
the last legislative session, and no ef'
for has been made to suppress their
traffic in other varieties of wet goods
Naturally, the dealers did not care tc
take any chances with the commission
form Of government, and exerted ever!
possible: influence against the aboli
tion of the aldermanic plan.

SWEDISH METHODIST COLLEGE.
Ashland Commercial Club Takes the
Matter Up With View of LOcat-
ing School Here.

Recent Portland papers announce
a movement on the part of the Swed-
ish Methodists of Oregon TO found a
college of that denomination within
the states borders. To further this
project, the matter will probably
come up before the gathering of the
Pacific Swedish Mission Conference
which meets in Los Angeles on the
5th inst. Agreeable to a suggestion
offered at a late meeting of the local
commercial organization. a communi-
cation has been forwarded this body,
enumerating the advantages Ashland
possesses for the location of such an
institution within its borders, nota-
bly, from a climatic, scenic and edu-
cational environment, other features
being also dwelt upon, in order that
this prominent gathering of repre-
sentative Scandinavians may be fully
advised in the premises, should they
deem it advisable to include Ashland
among the locations eligible for the
location of such college. The nor
NAL school situation is not only re-
ferred to in connection with this mat
ter, but in a general way the atten-
ton of the Swedish Methodist body
has been called to Ashland's qualifi-
cations along the lines of an ideal
home for such an influential school

In regard to attractions, some have
proposed a basketball game between
the teams of Grants Pass and Ash
land on the evening of Grants Pass
Day, but the club there states that
the ball team is composed of pupils
of the high school, consequently il
would be necessary to take up the
matter with the school management
At the same time, our neighbors
would probably desire to return
home early in the evening, so that q
game such as proposed might moi

Commercial Club Tenders CS Thanks 10 Everyone Who Assisted
in Procuring Appropriation for MI. Ashland Road

Road matters or kindred subjects
occupied most of the time of the local
commercial body at it's regular
monthly meeting Monday evening.
In the absence of President Briggs
the chair was occupied by Vice-Presi-
dent j. w. Mccoy.
A communication was received
from forest service headquarters rel
ative to the appropriation for and
construction of the Ashland noun
tain road in the Crater reserve. Dis
trict Engineer Herring and Ranger
Moore will meet Saturday with a
committee representing the club and
talk over the situation fully. Presi-
dent E. d. Briggs, Trustees F. H.
Walker, F. G. McWilliams and c. B.

were named on this committee. They
will welcome suggestions as to the
most feasible route for the highway

corning revenues derived from poul-

Mr.. Lowe also addressed the club re-
garding improvements on the roads

including Crater Lake, a matter on
which he is an enthusiast. Having
recently gone over the road, he took
particular pains to investigate condi-
tions both in Jackson and the adjoin-
ing county, and he submitted a prop
osition which he is sanguine will
bring good results and lessen the
present distance from Ashland to
these resorts by over 40 miles, pro-
vided his suggestions are carried out.
In order to investigate this plan and
further the work, a committee of
three was appointed to consider the
matter. Mr.. Lowe is chairman of
this committee, assisted by B. r.
Greer and F. II. Walker.
On motion, thanks were rendered
the states delegation in congress,
forestry officials, and other public
spirited parties who assisted in Sc
curing the government appropriation
for the mountain road. which is the
result of a bill introduced by Con-
gressman Hawley last January AS
heretofore stated. the appropriation
asked for was $13,500, of which
$4,000 is now available, and it is
hoped that more will be forthcoming
in due season.

The program was taken in charge
by our splendid president, Mrs Ar
thur Conklin. Mr.. Dewey favored us
with a song, Mrs. p. L. Ashcraft, Jr.,
accompanist. Hon. c. l.. Reames fol-
lowed. He spoke on Oregon laws
relating 10 women. He captured his
audience when he said he believed
they wanted real knowledge of Ore
gon laws instead of oratory. He
showed, first, that several laws were
deficient in that women did not have
equal rights compared with men, and
that the mother was more liable to
unjust legislation than any other hu-
man being in Oregon. He said that
should appeal to every loyal son who
truly loved his mother. He men
toned that, in several ways, the
daughter or the wife had more rights
than the mother who had borne the
child or cared for it. He instanced
the Injustice of the law when an un-
married son dies intestate. He cited
case where he had just closed up
an estate. The son had been insane
and his widowed mother had taken
care OF him for twelve years. The
property was divided by law among
his brothers, and his mother was left
with a mere pittance where she
sAould have received the whole for
her devotion He brought out facts
concerning another Oregon law
where man and wife might be killed
in the same accident, and where the
law decided where it was not known
which died first, that the woman's
property must go to her husbands
relatives. He showed injustice tC
women in the present school laws
His chief point was, however, that q
married woman in Oregon had ne
real title to her land, her house, hel
piano. her books or any of her goods
given her or acquired by her labor
before marriage, unless, after the
same, she appeared before the coun.
ty clerk and filed a verified certifi.
cate. to the effect that she had owned
them before marriage. He dwelt or
twd.bther laws that are of too serious
nethre to be written in brief, but
latelUtg those competent to deal with
that will be placed before the public

FAILS TO MAKE BOND
Rancher-Bandit Committed to Jail
to Await Trial-Insanity Plea
Basis of Defense.

Topeka, Kan, Sept. 3.-Wells
Lounsberry, the Medford ranchman
who shot himself after holding up
the limited Union Pacific train near
here two weeks ago, was arraigned
in the federal court today He
waived preliminary examination and
being unable to furnish bonds was
sent to Jail. After pathetic leave
taking in which the self-control and
devotion of Mrs. Lounsberry was the
striking feature and the composure
of the defendant was remarkable, the
wife who has watched by her hus-
bands side ever since her arrival and
who has cheered him in his misfor-
tune left with her two boys for Med
ford where she expects to arrive Sat
urday, September Z.
Although Lounsberry is still weak
from the effects of the wound, he
seemed perfectly calm and cheerful
and his entire demeanor was that of
a self-respecting and somewhat timid
citizen who has been the unfortunate
victim of circumstances rather than
self-confessed railway bandit.
Although no plea was entered, it
is generally known that Lounsberry's
attorney will make insanity caused
by the railroad accident several years
ago, in which the defendants skull
was fractured, the basis of the de-
fense. Lounsberry's father, though
broken by the misfortune, keeps a
stout heart and said today that lit
would be shown that a man who had
led an exemplary life for 40 years
did not turn criminal unless there
was some reason other than vicious
criminality.
I'VE will have an X-ray taken of
my sons head" said Mr.. Lounsberry,
"and | believe it will show that he
has been suffering from a form of
insanity for many years. He has
never been the same since that acci-
dent and that was one reason that
he took up ranching in Oregon.
This mania for holding up trains was
simply mental arrangement and he
should be held no more responsible
than man who is delirious after a
fever"
The two Lounsberry boys are still
in ignorance of their fathers fate
and have had the time of their lives
while here. Local citizens have TAX
en- great interest in the youngsters,
and although carefully guarded by
their mother, numerous attentions
have been paid them. They left their
father today with simply Goodbye,
daddy" secure in the belief that he
would soon be with them at their
Medford home.
