Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1912-12-12

We have not had to feed 500
drunken men during the past year.
klamath Falls is said to have approx
imated that. Neither is $4,000 a
month paid to the saloonkeeper that
should go to the seller of shoes, or
groceries, or merchandise And that
also is credited to our sister city.
Why not let well enough alone?
In the past few days twenty out of
twenty-five towns of Oregon voted
for no saloons. Among them were
Albany, Eugene, Newport, Dayton,
McMinnylle and Roseburg. They
believe in being on the safe side.
They have no use for the seventh
largest trust, which lately has
Rugged close in its arms the white
slave trade with which also to men
ace us.
To-day if eleven accounts are asked
for to run on time by Ashland mer-
chants, eleven accounts are honored
by big business. CITIZEN.

Business and Morals.

The towns of Oregon have largely
been under the "'limelight" during
the past three months as regards
financial prosperity. AS everyone
knows, with the presidential election
came certain depression in business
circles, as seems to be the case every
four years. People generally are lay
ing the cause to one of three things:
Hydra-headed trusts, calling in of
ready money, or, what is rather
laughable, not a sufficiency OF sa-
looms.
AS to the first, of course, the trusts
continue to grow. There is the oil
trust, the meat trust and the brew
cry trust. The brewery trust is the
seventh largest in the United States.
It's output in New York or vicinity
this year was 100000 gallons of
beer, and 100000 gallons alone
were consumed in the city. There
seemed to be peculiar depression
there, whether due to the beer or not
is unknown, but the wages OF school
teachers, policemen and firemen
were lowered one-third. 1t looks like
the revenue received from the sale of
the foaming beer mug, after all, did
not keep the city in money sufficient
to pay legitimate officers. There
were 100000 children in that city
that could not go to school, because
there were no school houses for them,
and 800, 900 more went only one-half
] day. And yet New York city gets
| immense revenue from the seventh
! largest trust. 1t would be useless to
touch on the second reason why
money is hard to get for business,
as it is mans privilege to do what
he pleases with his own.
AS for the third reason, that we
have not sufficiency of saloons, one
would judge from the newspaper
comments of our Portland dailies
that our metropolis would give away
few of them and the boozers to
boot, as about all the revenue from
the liquor trade has to be used to
feed hoboes, murderers and the
spawn of the dives.
Coming up the valley, it is said
by those who deal in the towns in
one way or another that there is no
town that has better credit or which
the various wholesale houses in San
Francisco and Portland honor with
credit than Ashland
We stand in the ratio for good busi.
ness compared with Medford and
klamath Falls of about five to one
Our credit is believed to be about
five times better than either city.

Gold Hill Man Invents Gun-sight

Gold Hill Man Invents Gun-Sight.
A gun-sight that will revolutionize
the practice of driving a bullet to the
exact center of the point aimed at
is the invention of Henry Raedel of
Gold Hill, who has just received noti-
fication of the granting of his patent
by the department at Washington,
says the News. The sight is entirely
new in principle, and will take from
the main feature of its construction
the name ''T sight" Cross-bar sights
in globe setting form a perfect T,
! segmenting the lower half of the cir
Gle into an exact two quarters. That
is all there is to it, and the marvel is
that no one but Henry ever tumbled
/ to its simplicity and practical advan-
tage. Utilized both as a front and
rear sight, the instant the two rs
, come into close alignment a perfect
sight is obtained, not the tenth part
of hair from exactness. The ten
dency to slant rifle, with the ordi-
nary open sighting, either to right
or left becomes impossible without
knowledge of the marksman. Work
ing models of the new sight are now
being manufactured for Mr.. Raedel,
who has already received several
flattering offers for the patent.

OH the site of the old log structure,
and will be completed next week.
Agents of the various companies
have been in town the past few
days adjusting the loss and in
surance at Wallis recent fire. We
have not yet heard the result of
their deliberations but we have no
doubt that Mr.. Vail will receive
the full amount of indemnity his
policies call for as his loss was fully
twice that amount.
AS next Friday will be the last
day of the present term at the Ely
school, Miss Wilson proposes to
signalize the occasion by giving an
ice cream festival in the school
house in the evening. If Miss
Wilson's success in former enter
tainments is any criterion, it is
needless to say all will have a good
time. Everyone cordially invited.
During the past week Ely has
passed through a rather exciting
season of fires. On Tuesday morn
ing forest fire was burning slowly
near the landing at the lake. A
brisk wind started up and by noon
it had reached the Chandler location
where it. leveled three or four log
houses and was with difficulty kept
from reaching the mine buildings.
Its next seat of operations, was at
the Pioneer mine, where it kept the
Village Fire Department. the
employees of the mine and citizens
in keeping it from doing great
damage. The household goods of
VIM. LaBeau, and Thos, Connors,
were got out safely to the railroad
track, but despite the efforts of the
fire fighters Charles Tague's partly
completed house and the dwellings
of Thos. Connors and Gus Tegnal
were consumed. After burning
these buildings it continued to the
shaft, and engine house, which
were saved after hard fighting.
Much credit is due the citizens and
Fire Department, under the able
supervision of Chief Vail, in their
untiring efforts to save the dwell
ihgs and mining company's pro-
perty. Several pulley stands were
consumed, but other than this, no
serious damage to the company's
property occurred.
A special train conveyed Ely's
two base ball mines, and about fifty
other enthusiasts, to Soudan yester-
day morning and crossed bats with
their Tower and Soudanese breth-
ern.. The Ely juvenile nine carried
off the honors of the day for Ely,
defeating their opponents by a
score of 26 to IA. The boys are in
high spirits over the victory.
Their elder companions however
were less fortunate for at the end
of the ninth innings they found
themselves done up to the tune of
Tower rs, Ely Is. Considering
that they have no opportunities for
practice, though, the Ely club
made a good showing, and if Tower
had not drawn upon outsiders to
strengthen their nine a different
story might have been told.
