Saturday informed their friends that
they would follow the lead set by Mrs.
William Draper at her Renaissance

artistic triumph of the year.
1t was the greatest of all the social
pageants which have marked Mrs.

Count Won BernstOrff. the German

THE PACIFIC HIGHWAY.

That good roads luncheon to be
held Tuesday promises to mark an
epoch In local development the Pa
cific Highway question at present be-
ing most vital one, while the rail
road situation will also receive at.
tention with the promise OF some
highly interesting announcements.
The Pacific Highway question has
now reached critical point, and i'm
mediate and united action on the
part Of the commercial organizations
OF southern Oregon is imperative.
The present route has been endorsed
by the Pacific Highway association,
but the Portland effort seems to be
directed along the line Of getting ma
tional aid for an eastern Oregon
route, and combining It with the sys-
TEN Of national high ways. A map
recently received by the Courier
from the president OF the National
Highway association, which organ
ization has It's headquarters at Wash.
ington, D. c., shows the tentative 10.
cations OF the main trunk lines OF
the national highways one Of these

GARBAGE DISPOSAL.

The disposal of garbage Is prob
lem that always confronts every
growing city. The incinerator has
been the solution in cities that have
become large enough and strong
enough financially to provide the
equipment, but it is the community
that has passed out OF it's village
days and yet has not reached the
magnitude that will permit the es-
tablishment OF municipal inciner-
ator that finds the greatest difficulty
In the matter
No town can be clean town or a
healthful one unless the garbage Ia
promptly and properly disposed OF.
Grants Pass prides herself upon be-
ing both cleanly and healthful but
to maintain the reputation she must
at once provide for the disposition OF
trash and garbage The public
dumping ground will do for the COM
munity OF but few hundred people,
but always there are those whose
rights are trespassed upon by the To-
cation OF the ground. Property val
ues in the vicinity OF the ground
are depressed, and the fragrance of
the Rogue atmosphere becomes
tainted and laden with the germs of
disease. 1t was for these reasons,
and the further reason that the beau
ty OF the landscape on the water
front was not added to by these acres
OF tin cans, rotting vegetables, out
of-date wearing apparel. and value
less junk OF all descriptions that the
city dump was closed
Bu, in closing this ground to the
use OF the public other provision
should be made by the city author
tiles. 1t is just as essential that

STEAM ROLLER ROLLS.

The decision Of President Wilson
to put sugar on the free list at the
expiration OF three years has been
sustained by the house in committee
OF the whole. BY vote Of 1876 to
SS, the Mann amendment which pro-
posed to strike the free sugar clause
from the Underwood bill, went down
to defeat.
The lumber schedule was formally
approved before the sugar debate
started.
In the debate Falconer Of Wash
ington denounced President Wilson.
Addressing his remarks to the dem
ocratic members, Falconer shouted:
You Hindoo-Chinese lovers wanting
to put shingles on the free list would
know that you are running a great
industry II you had a grain Of sense.
You are trying to put the Jananese
into California with a pedagogic
president who knows a lot OF fine
phrases but little about labor eco
nomics."

ANTI-ALIEN LEGISLATION.

California is establishing no prece-
dent when she legislates against
alien ownership OF lands. The state
Of Washington years ago adopted the
principle OF limiting the holdings Of
non-citizens, and even the state Of
Oregon has enacted legislation that
protects the rights OF American citi-
zens against the eneroachment of the
alien. Oregon now has on the stat
ute books a law prohibiting the Is
suance OF fishing licenses to anyone
not citizen or who has not declared
his intention OF becoming a citizen,
and the state fish warden announces
that the law will be rigidly en-
forced.
This fish law was passed primar-
lily to protect the Columbia river
commercial fishermen. without It
there rushed to the state every year
a horde OF half civilized Jap and
Dago fishermen who reaped har-
vest from the fisheries for which the
state expends its cash in the propa-
cation and protection OF the indus
try.
This anti-alien fish law is not diff
ferent in principle from the anti
alien land law proposed in Califor-
MIA. Yet no protest went up with
the enactment OF the Oregon mea-
sure. Its Righteousness was appar-
ent. Because OF the assumption OF
the duties of citizenship there is a
certain protection due the home
fisherman and the home lumberman
and the home laborer in whatever
line of industry he may be engaged.
This seeming discrimination is no
more a discrimination than the hun
dreds OF laws that are passed by the
states and by the national
congress itself in making OF America
a real home for those who wish to
accept the responsibilities OF citizen
ship. California need not be vindic-
tive In the enactment OF anti-alien
laws, but she is well within her
rights in the passage OF reasonable
regulations.

FESTIVAL OF FLOWERS.

The Mazamas OF Portland are In,
teresting others than members OF
that organization in the excursion tc
Grants Pass on May 29th to June
End, on the occasion OF the trip to
the Marble caves. II 1875 or more
come, the fare will be but $3.50 for
the round trip, and there are un-
doubtedly many who would be glad
OF the opportunity TO come from the
north to the Rogue river valley for
an outing or visit even II they did
not wish to go to the caves.
II has been suggested that the an
nual rose festival be placed on the
dates Of the Mazama trip, and to
make the excursion as extensive as
possible and bring train load OF
people from Portland and way
points by special excursion train.
Last year the rose festival was held
on June 7th, but II is thought pos
sible to set the date a week earlier
this year II the weather remains
warm meantime. Azaleas, wild lilacs,
California poppies and profusion
OF other wild flowers are in bloom
on June 1st, and a festival OF flow
srs could certainly be held that
would be a delight and wonder to
the visitors from the north. On June
LIST OF last year one person picked 21
different varieties OF wild flowers
within walking distance OF Sixth
street, and these with the many
roses and other flowers OF the cult-
vated gardens, will make an array
OF fragrance and beauty that can be
duplicated In no portion OF the west.
Proper effort could be made to get
the Portland business men interest
cd In the excursion, and a gala day
OF considerable magnitude might be
developed out OF the situation.
Rogue River courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 1886-1927, 1913-05-02

the truth that the wide spread is due
to exorbitant tolls for mere handling,
collected by houses organized in as
sociations, or combines, at points OF
destination. The cost OF railway
transportation in large bulk is found
to be almost negligible, and wholly
out OF proportion with the costs Of
distribution after the products are
delivered to first consignees.
The farmers are showing a practi-
cal business sense which promises re-
suits. They have hit upon a vital
fact in the situation which is. strange
as It may appear, that city concerns
prefer smaller sales at extortionate
profits to large sales at smaller pro-
FITS. Unable to see how this policy
can pay anybody, they are wasting
no time In wondering about 1t, since
they understand that the heavy fall
Ing on in demand which extortion
compels, leaves vast quantities OF
their food products rotting in the
fields. They are accordingly moving
in the work OF laying down these
waste products In many cities at
prices only a shade above the cost
OF production and hauling. The av-
erage price, 30 reduced, is found to
be less than half the average price
by city dealers against the
more fortunate few who can afford
TO buy whatever they want to eat
without much regard to the prices
charged.
A part OF the plan will be the main
tenance OF supply depots In cities.
Whether the attempt to bring con-
sumer and producer together will
succeed or fall, will depend, II seems,
upon the consumer. During years in
which II became bad form" to
AIRY a package. basket, or any
hing, In a city street, the old-style
market houses in which consumers
Ind producers once met and dealt,
With mutual advantage, disappeared. !

THE o. & C. LAND GRANT CASE.
regulations

THE o. & C. LAND GRANT CASE
The decision of Federal Judge
Wolverton at Portland Tuesday
whereby the government won its con-
tentlon regarding the o. & C. land
grant that has been in controversy
for the past five years, presages a
complete ultimate victory for the
people. The development Of Ore
gon has been retarded by the tieing
up OF these thousands OF acres in the
various counties In which the grant
ed lands are located, and the speedy
termination of the suit is a matter TO
be hoped for by the general public,
Following this decision on the part
of the federal court, the attorneys
for the defeated railroad company
will appeal to the United States court
Of appeals. and whatever the verdict
there, the case will undoubtedly find
Its way to the supreme court of the
United States, The action of the at
torneys in waving argument would
indicate that the railroad company
had concluded not to unnecessarily
delay matters, but to run the gamut
OF the courts as speedily as possible.
1t is expected that the court OF ap-
peals will take action not later than
October, and while the supreme
court moves with a good deal of de-
liberation, the case should be finally
disposed of a year later.
In directing that a decree be en-
tered torteiting the lands to the
United States. Judge Wolverton
said
THE railroad company has sub
mltted this case without argument.
The vital question in the case is in
reference to the conditions that
were imposed by the government at
the time the grant was made.
That condition was that the land
should be sold to actual settlers at
S2.50 an acre At the time the de-
murrer was taken up it was argued
ably and eNhaustiyely. At that time
| proceeded to consider all the Ques-
tions presented
II understand that the attorneys
are not questioning the soundness Of
the decision at that time and that
the only considerations at this time
are questions OF fact.
Il do not believe that It is now
