Scott Valley Railroad Project.

Meetings were held at Etna re-
Gently in the interest of a railroad
into Scott valley, the call for the
meeting being signed by George F.
Hellmuth, John Is. Lindsay, John P.
Smith, Fred Young and James F.
Farraher.
There was a good attendance at
the meetings, which were called to
order by Mr.. Hellmuth who intro
duced Mr.. Farraher. The latter de-
clared that the proposed road has no
connection with the Southern Pacific
1t is prposed to build from Horn
brook down the klamath river to
the ocean, branch to extend up the
Scott river to Fort Jones and Etna
For the expenses of preliminary
work and to obtain rights of way, it
will be necessary to raise about $25,-
900, of which Scott valley will be
expected to contribute fair proper
ton There is much enthusiasm in
the valley over the proposition, as a
railroad is all that is necessary to
bring that fertile and beautiful sec
tion to the highest development.
About $4,000 has been subscribed at
Etna toward the project.

oRJECr mo- pIsCRnINATION.
Suit Brought Against Fort klamath
School Directors for This.

Charging that the directors of
school district No. Z are discriminat-
ing against children of mixed blood,
William Crawford, through his at
torney, C.. NJ. O'Neill, has started
mandamus proceedings. The papers
were filed in the office of the county
clerk at Klamath Falls recently. The
petitioner asks that the court re-
uuire the school directors, E. S. Tur-
ner, E. NJ Leeva and r. A. Moon,
and the school CLERK, NJ. F. Loosely,
to rescind an order requiring chill
dren of mixed blood to attend sep
arate school located in an isolated
part of Fort Klamath, in school dis
trict No. Z.
William Crawford was born in
Yreka, Cal His father was a white
man and his mother was Modoc
Indian woman. The petitioner mar
ried Eliza Barclay, who was born in
Klamath Falls, and whose father
was a white man, but her mother
was a klamath Indian woman. At
ter their marriage they adopted the
customs of the whites, and have con-
tinued to do so, bringing up their
five children just as are white chill
Gren.
Although each of the five Craw-
ford children holds an allotment on
the klamath reservation, the family
has resided in Fort Klamath, where
Crawford owns a house and three
lots, on which he has regularly paid
taxes. The petitioner sets forth that
he has participated in the duties of a
citizen of the United States and has
regularly cast vote at the different
elections.
On September IS, however, when
two of his children, Juanita and Ma
oma, appeared at the Fort klamath
school for enrolment, the teacher,
Miss Minnie Mcclure, informed them
that a special school had been pro-
vided for halfbreed children, and de-
clined to allow them to attend the
school over which she presides.
The petitioner sets forth that the
school directors had engaged a teach
er for three months, and had rented
a small room in an isolated part of
the town which halfbreed children
are required to attend, and to which
the white children are forbidden. 1t
sets forth that there was no necessi-
ty for the renting of a second school
when the regular school building af-
fords ample room for all of the pu-
pills Of school age in the district
The school was established, the Pc
titioner declares, especially to dis
criminate against children with In
dian blood in their veins

LONG SEARCH ENDS.
Richard Mansfield, Deaf Mute, Found
BY Brother Through Letter.

A search of several years conduct
ed by Edward Mansfield of San Fran
cisco has just been closed when the
object of his search, his brother
Richard, was identified as the order
ly at the Eugene Hospital.
The boys are sons of the late Cap
tain Mansfield of the Highlanders,
who died in England during the Boer
war, as a result of wounds received
in battle during that struggle. 1t is
believed that the mind of Richard,
who is a deaf mute, and who was
then a student in chemistry at Ok
ford, was temporarily deranged by
the death of his father and that he
ran away as a result His uncle,
Baron Won Beckman, who lives in
Berne, Switzerland, became interest
ed in finding the young man, and
an extensive search by means of ad-
vertisements in newspapers and
work through private detective agen-
cies was begun.
The search seemed futile but was
continued with unabatable vigor A
short time ago, Edward Mansfield
was passing through Eugene, return
ing to his home from trip to Port
land, and stopped off to see the city.
He dropped letter, with the de-
scription of his brother, to the post
master, who recognized the young
man at the hospital as the person
wanted. Communications were eX-
changed and the identification estab-
lished. Richard will probably go to
Switzerland to his uncle. He says
that he came to more than ordinary
intelligence and education, after the
death of his father, but was unable
to find him. Richard has been at the
Eugene Hospital for more than a
year. He has been deaf and dumb
as a result of scarlet fever, since he
was three years old. He is an expert
lip reader and understands every
thing said to him without difficulty.
He is person of more than ordinary
intelligence and education.

EXPERTS STUDY SEWER PIPE.
Engineers Think They Have Solved
Problem That Puzzled Makers.

University of Oregon, Eugene
The experts of the engineering school
of the university believe that they
have discovered a new combination
of materials that will give Oregon,
and the Willamette valley in par
ticular, a better grade of concrete
sewer pipe than it has been possible
to manufacture up to this time, and
at no greater expense. The first ap-
peal to the university came from pri-
vate sources, but the fact that the
sanitation of cities depends in large
degree on watertight conduits gave
the work a public Importance that
appealed to the professors as SER
wants of the state.
The civil engineering department,
under Professor E. M. McAllister, is
ready at all times to make tests OF
materials, etc, for any municipality
or public body in the state. A COM
plete equipment for testing the
strength of steel, timber stone,
brick, cement or any other substance
is at the service of public bodies
without expense, By taking advan-
tage of this offer, public officers can
assure themselves that the taxpayers
are getting their moneys worth
from the contractors. The univers-
ity hopes in time to be able to make
this offer to all comers, but for the
present it is restricted to municipal
tiles and public bodies, with small
fee charged to others to keep the de-
partment from being swamped with
this work.
The department also tests tapes
and chains for city and county en-
gineers The chains are usually
found accurate enough for rough
work in the country, but experience
shows that city engineers, who deal
with smaller parcels of land, will do
we'll to send in their tapes. All pub
lie officers are welcome to the de-
Dartment's aid and advice.

Vale Editor on Commercial Clubs

The Vale Enterprise has a good
idea of what a Commercial Club is
and has the following to say: "a
great many of our citizens are in
clined to overlook the good that is
accomplished by the commercial
club. The pepole of Vale are not
alone in this, as it it the same, prac-
tically, all over the country. The
commercial club shoulders all the
trouble and expense of advertising
our community and trusts to the
people to repay them. They spend
many nights in figuring on some
thing to help the town, and the peo-
pie, who are to reap the benefit,
sleep peacefully. They give a good
part of their time and often spend
some expense money, and the people
do not compensate them in any way.
The officers never stand back from
the work simply because there is no
payroll in connection with their Of
flee. The small growing town is the
one that needs a commercial club,
and town never amounts to shucks
unless it has one"

r.. r.. TRAVELLERS PROGRESSIVE.
Southern Pacific Conductor Finds
41S Out of 800 Are Il. II. Men.

Redding Searchlight: An inter
esting disclosure as to the drift of
the political tide with the great trav-
cling public of California is made
by the unique trial Balloting scheme
of a Southern Pacific conductor on
a train running from Sacramento to
Fresno. He has good friend who
runs on the Dunsmuir local and is
responsible for the circulation in
Redding of the account of a fair test
to learn what are the election
chances of Roosevelt and Taft.
1t was found that out of 500 pas
sengers queried, AIS declared them
selves to be for Roosevelt and the
remainder for Taft The conductor
kept an ear open for Wilson men as
well and found that the democratic
candidates ratio of support was not
much stronger than the presidents
The means employed by the inves-
tigating conductor was a little diver
sion he permitted himself during
several weeks of service. All con.
ductors know that good part of the
male passengers on trains are more
than ready to talk, and politics il
given the most discussion. Without
letting any know of his purposes the
railway man gained the confidence
of 800 passengers regarding whom
they intended to vote for, and con
siders that his findings are an abso
lutte indication of the Novembe
election.

Anneals for Dixie Vote

New Orleans, La, Sept. 27.-A
new keynote and one which, it is be-
lieved, will win him thousands of
votes in Dixie land, was sounded here
this afternoon by Colonel Roosevelt,
the progressive candidate for presi-
dent.
In one of the most powerful
speeches since he started on his coast
to coast tour the colonel asserted
that the progressive party offered the
only solution to the southern voter
who desired the south to have a
greater voice in the management of
the government. Petty jealousy and
factionalism, he said, which pre-
vailed among the southern democrats
would prevent them from ever solv-
ing the problems which confront this
section of the country

California Editor Criticises Girls
Dress.

Chico Herald: Preaching or

times we wish we were a preacher,
we would by some hook or crook, or
a premium offer, endeavor to get be-
fore us all the mothers and fathers
of school girls in Chico If teach
er, we would get all those school
girls together in some big room. The
subject at either or both of these
meetings would be, Girls of From
Sixteen to Twenty and Some of the
Ways in Which They Dress, With
Particular Reference to Our Own
Girls" And we would tell them
that there are not few girls of sup
posedly sensible parentage whose
dress, even if it does follow the lat
est accepted fashions, borders close
to the line of indecency; whose
dress, half concealing, half reveal
ing" is so suggestive that they are
the cause of remark every time they
appear on the streets and are open
invitation to such remarks. And II
the preacher, we would tell the pa
rents that they are the ones to blame
for permitting their children to Sc
dress; and If the teacher, we would
send them home with instructions tC
come back when they were less slav
ish to fashion and more observan
of those requirements of dress which
are demanded by all who would pre-
serve themselves as sweet, modes

Oregon Farmers Rolling in weaIth.

Oregon Farmers Rolling in Wealth.
Portland, Oct Farmers of the
Pacific northwest are to be envied
this year, for prices are high and
crops abundant. In almost every
section the producers are rolling in
new wealth.
Thomas Morgan of Enterprise har-
vested $4,000 worth of grain from
one ranch in Union county and he
will grow enough on other ranches
near Enterprise to bring his total
crop up to $4,000 bushels.
A man in the Table Rock district
of Jackson county raised 5000 sacks
of potatoes on 80 acres. These pota-
toes are now worth, at the Medford
depot, $1.25 per sack, or $500 for
the crop from 80 acres.
A farmer in the Molalla district,
Clackamas county, has sold $500
worth of clover seed from eight acres
and has 27 tons of clover hay, worth
$270, from the same land.
A hop farmer in the Mission bot
tom country, near Salem, has grown
100000 worth of hops on 100 acres.
The crop is already sold at that fig
ure.
Every neighborhood throughout
the state can show similar instances
of farmers getting rich. There are
unlimited opportunities for others
The farmers of Washington, it is
said, will receive $25, ,00O,0 more
for their crops this year than last
and it is probable the increased
value in this state will not be much
below that figure.

MUST SUPPORT VICTIMS FAMILY
Killed Him With Air HOse-COurt
Imposes Unusual Sentence.

Buffalo, n. Warren House,
who caused the death of Valentine
Lukowski, fellow workman, a few
months ago while playing a practi-
cal joke, will begin at once the serv-
ing of an unusual sentence imposed
by Justice Marcus in the state su-
preme court here.
The sentence places House in
charge of a probation officer for an
indefinite period and compels him to
pay So week toward the support of
the family of the dead man until the
children are able to support their
mother. 1t is estimated the fine will
cover a period of about 10 years,
amounting in all to more than
$500.
House turned a compressed air
hose on his fellow workman in fun.
The pressure was so great that it
killed Lukowski instantly.

Bad Distribution Not OverprOduc-
ton.
Corvallis Gazette Times: At last
farmers and business men are begin
ming to understand and take cogni-
zance of the fact that there has new
er been, and can never be, an over
production of any crop What ap-
pears as a surplus is merely a glut-
ting of individual markets, and the
tremendous loss, the waste, is the
fault of our vicious system of mar
keting. At the time of the howl
about overproduction, millions anX-
ious for that particular product are
without. Eastern Oregon peaches,
wondrous in their perfection, rotted
on the trees, while many communi-
ties over this state and Idaho could
have used that fruit and would have
used it had they a chance at it.
Large cities get nearly all the sup
plies first, and thousands of small
cities and towns that could use in
car lots never really get a chance.
Proper distribution would have
solved the problem of an overpro-
duction of the past, and distribution
will meet the need in the future
There is to be exhaustive considera-
tion of the distribution problem al
Indianapolis next month.

Avoid sedative Cough Medicines.

If you want to contribute directly
to the occurrence of capillary bron-
chitis and pneumonia, use cough
medicines that contain codine, NOR
phine, heroin and other sedatives
when you have a cough or cold. An
expectorant like Chamberlain
Cough Remedy is what is needed.
That cleans out the culture beds or
breeding places for the germs of
pneumonia and other germ diseases.
That is why pneumonia never results
from a cold when Chamberlain's S
Cough Remedy is used, 1t has a
worldwide reputation for its cures.
1t contains no morphine or other sed-
ative. For sale by Poly's Drug Store.
