JOHN ROMAN IS
 ON PAY AGAIN

FAIRBANKS, Mar. 17.-John Roman, of the Reliance Mining Co.'S mine, ar rived in town last Wednesday after noon with cleanup from the mill To- cated on Dome creek The present cleanup disclosed greater values than any previous ones although every one has shown exceptional values. The 251 ounces brought in by MT. Roman have been assayed at $17.50 per ounce. Considering that the gold was crushed from ore mined and milled within six ty hours the owners are elated over the showing.
 All fall this mine has been pro- ducing exceptional values per ton and the claim is considered one of the very best in the whole district. The mine at present, working ten hours to the day, is taking out an av- craze of $72O a day, while the total expenses of operating are less than $2OO a day. From this it is seen what profit the owners are cleaning up.

THE ROGUE FISHING SEASON

THE ROGUE FISHING SEASON.
For the last several years the
beautiful Rogue river lost much Of
Its beauty and usefulness through
the destruction Of the industry Of
commercial fishing. Thousands Of
great salmon that would have added
To the welfare and the prosperity sof
the community had they been taken
from the stream while they we're yet
fresh and fat from the ocean, were
permitted to die and rot along the
shores and both pollute the water Of
the stream that is used for domestic
purposes by many and fill the air
with a sickening stencil. With the
operation OF a wisely drafted and
properly enforced law allowing COM
mercial fishing, such as the one Just
going into effect, the value OF the
stream will be preserved, and an in
dustry of considerable magnitude
will be developed. There are but
sixty days OF the open season, but the
return to the fishermen will be not
less than $500 per day. and this
amount of new money brought in
every day in cash from the outside
and distributed in the channels of
trade will surely have a beneficial
effect upon all lines of trade. Not to
accept this offering of nature would
be little short of crime. But
strict observance of the law should
be the first aim of every man con-
nected with the industry.

PREPARING FOR THE FOURTH.

A general meeting Of all the COM
mittees appointed to prepare for the
celebration of the Fourth of July
was held Wednesday night, and from
the sentiment expressed it is evident
that the spirit of the day is present
and will make Of the celebration
the greatest event of the kind ever
held in the Rogue valley.
Two days, Friday and Saturday,
will be given over to the screaming
Of the eagle, and there will be some
thing doing every minute. From sug-
gestions offered by the various com
mitteemen definite program is to
be outlined by the program commit
tee and when that is done all energies
will be bent toward the success of
the project. Among the attractions
that are practically assured are the
aeroplane flights, horse and other
racing, baseball tournament with
four clubs playing, and many other
features that will fill the two days
from daylight to dark.
The business men have been ex-
ceedingly liberal in making SUBJ
scriptions to the fund, and cash will
be available to meet all reasonable
demands.
Remember, it will be the big cell
ebration Of southern Oregon, and
make your plans accordingly.
