STORIES AND THE DRAMA.

Harder Work to Write . Novel Than 20
Construct . Play. s
One reason why q play is easter to
write than q novel Is that a play ID
shorter than a novel. On the average:
n may say that It takes six plays to-
make the matter. Of a novel. Other
things being equal, a short work Of art.
presents fewer difficulties than a long
er one. The contrary Is held true by
the majority, but then the majority,
having never attempted to produce .
long work Of art, are unqualified to-
offer an opinion.
It Is said that the most dificult form
of poetry is the sonnet. But, the most:
difficult form Of poetry is the epic. The
proof that the sonnet Is the most DIFF
fcult form is alleged to be In the few:
ness Of perfect sonnets. There are,
however, few more perfect sonnetsS

FINE BUNCH OF FISH.
Party From Ashland Gets Fine Lot
of Trout.

A party of Ashland disciples of
Isaak Walton, consisting of Harry
Hostler, Sim Morris and Fred Cass,
sojourned to the Rogue river below
the Ray Gold dam on Tuesday, and
one envious sportsman declared that
they did not even leave the holes the
fish came out of. The catch amount
ed to over 200 pounds, mostly steel
head trout, there being a few cut
throats in the bunch. The largest
single fish was caught by Sim Nor
ris and weighed twelve pounds. The
next largest, weighing nine pounds,
fell victim to the skill Of Harry
Hostler. The fish were on exhibi-
tion at the cigar store of Mr.. Hostier
that evening, filling the entire win
dow, and attracted large number
of people.

SEPTIC TANK A BONE OF CONTENTION
CITY ENGINEER WALKER WAKES WROTH AT CRITICISM OF TANK ON
CARTER PROPERTY DESIGNED BY HIM

The septic tank (sceptic tank is
it) which is located on the Carter
property near Mountain avenue was
again in the spot light at the city
council meeting Tuesday evening
There has been more or less friction
or trouble over the tank for some
time, Mr.. F. II. Walker, who owns
the property upon which it is stu
ated, declaring that it was not doing
its work and that it was in an un-
sanitary condition., while City En-
gineer Walker, who designed it and
who stands sponsor for it, declared
that it was doing all that could be
expected of a septic tank.
A. J. Biegel was present by re-
quest and told the council that in his
opinion the tank was wrongly con-
structed, that there should not be
BATTLE walls hung from the top, but
that there should be partitions, if
any, constructed from the bottom
Mr.. Staples also spoke in regard to
the matter. Water Commissioner
Rosecrans told of the repairs made
and necessary to be made TO the
tank.
Here City Engineer Walker took
the floor, prefacing his remarks with
the statement that he was a civil en-
gineer and knew what he was talk
ing about and that none of the 9th
ers knew anything about septic
tanks He declared that the tank
should not have been cleaned out
last fall by Mr.. Rosecrans. When
asked as to the amount of scum
which should gather in a year on
the tank he said seven inches. A
member OF the council asked Mr.
Rosecrans how much scum there was
when they cleaned out the tank, and
he said seven feet. This nonplused
Mr.. Walker for time and he seemed
inclined to dispute the accuracy of
Mr.. Rosecrans, brt finally ended by
saying that he did not doubt his
word but that it was a mystery to
him as he had examined the tank
only two weeks previously and he
knew at that time there was but
about seven inches; he thought that
there must have some solid matter
got into the tank that did not belong
TO the sewage.
Ar. Walker also paid his compli-
ments to Mr.. Carter, declaring that
the septic tank was not supposed to

A MILL AND SHELTER
Cecil A. Townsend Arranges to In
stall One for Custom Work
in This City.

Cecil A. Townsend, the real estate
and mining man, is making arrange
ments to put in stamp mill and
smelter in this city which will do
custom crushing and smelling for
the various mines and mining men
in and around the Rogue river val
ley. Mr.. Townsend and Mr. Dozier,
who will have charge of the plant
for Mr.. Townsend are negotiating
for five-stamp mill which is now
at Yreka and expect to install it ad-
joining the Ashland Iron Works.
Mr. Townsend has also arranged
with the Ashland Iron Works to
erect for him a smelter having a
minimum capacity of 500 pounds to
charge and which can be continu-
ously operated, thus giving it a ca
pacity of several tons of ore per day.
This will be of great advantage to
owners and prospective purchasers
of quartz claims, as it will permit
actual mill tests of the ore, which
are much more reliable than assays.
and which have heretofore been al
most prohibitive because of the ne
cessity to ship to distant points to
get ore crushed and smelted

remove anywhere near all the bac-
terra, and that to purify the sewage
filter beds must also be used He
said that if Mr.. Carter did not know
what septic tank was supposed to
do when he permitted it to be placed
on mis- land that was his fault, not
the city's; that Mr. Carters sole aim
seemed to be to make the city as
much expense and trouble as posi-
BILE.
After Mr.. Walker got through one
of the councilmen asked Mr.. Biegel
if he still held to hls original opinion
as to the construction of the tank
and he said Sure"
The matter was finally disposed
of by turning the management Of
the tank over to MT. Walker that he
might have every chance to make it
WORK properly.

MR. CUNNINGHAM RESENTS CRITICISM
FINANCE COMMITTEE BELIEVE THEY ARE PERFECTLY COMPETENT To
SPEND The CITYS MONEY WITHOUT PUBLICITY

has increased as much as the levy
mas thus practically doubling the in
creased burden upon the people for
city purposes }; ii leaves every tax
payer to decide that for himself or
herself
councilman Gowdy, with gener-
osity seldom equa!ed and never sur
passed, kindly informed the Tidings
representative that the city council
would have no objection if the paper
wished to copy the bills and publish
them. Bless his dear unsophisticat-
ed and innocent heart, did he really
suppose for a minute that the It'd
ings did not know that the records
OF the recorders office are public
property, subject to the inspection of
the pUbLic? OF course the council
mems time is too valuable for them
to sit and listen to the reading of
the bills before they are voted upon
an dthe city is too poor to have them
published so that the taxpayers may
know where their money goes.
There is not a council meeting but
there is some citizen present who is
interested in bill before the coun-
ell, but he might be there at every
session for year and not know
whether or not it was acted upon.
There are rumors of sales in the
past by members of the council to
the city, of material at prices higher
than we're being charged other Gus
toners of the same firms, and it is
just such methods of handling bills
that foster these suspicious. Some
people are Just well enough posted
in their Bibles to remember some
thing Jesus said about people who
prefer darkness to light.
At the meeting Tuesday evening
City Treasurer Euhanhs asked that
his books for the past year be
checked up and he be given a clear
ance, as required by the bonding
companies. A motion was made that
the finance committee be instructed
to do this. Councilman Cunningham
objected as he said it would take
considerable time and the members
acting should have extra pay. Coun-
Gilman Beaver moved that they be
paid therefor. The motion was
passed. Now will the finance COM
mittee audit the bills for this work
and will the council pass them with
lot of others insight, unseen?
Time will tell.

portunity to make a living and pay
for home.
In addition to the city beautiful"
itself the Planada Development Com
pany owns a large tract of land sur
rounding the site of the young city
which is being subdivided into small
tracts and which will be sold to pur-
chasers who will improve them on
easy terms. The entire tract is to
be irrigated by system of concrete
pipes which conserve all the water
permitting no waste and at the same
time prevents the breeding of mos
quitoes and the spreading of malaria,
which so often accompanies the use
of open irrigation bitches, especially
where the land is comparatively
level.
The Planada Development Com
pany has some handsome advertis-
ing matter showing the attractive
ness of the country and its possibili-
ties from home-making and finan-
cial standing, which can be had by
calling on Mr. Townsend, who has
personally visited Planada and who
personally recommends the country
to anyone who desires a climate that
is summer all the year around.
Oranges, figs and other tropical
and semi-torpieal fruits are raised
in profusion in this section of Cali
fornia, and grain, alfalfa and stock
also do excellently. In fact, there is
scarcely product which, Mr.. Town
send states, cannot be successfully
grown in Merced county. 1t is also
in easy reach of the markets of the
state, being on the main line of the
Santa Fe railway, with the Southern
Pacific passing within a very short
distance OF the town plat, and cross
ing the Planada Development Com
pany's tracts.

To Women VOTERS.

c. II. Gillette OF the recorders Of
flee has given the Tidings informa-
tion regarding foreign women vot-
ing, which question has come up re-
Gently.
A single woman who is foreign
born must live in the United States
one year and take out naturalization
papers just as a foreign man must
do, before she can vote, but should
she marry an American. by the act
she becomes an American citizen
with all privileges accorded Ameri-
can women. If she has come to
America with her father, who has
been given the right of an American
citizen, she is then an American,
with voting privileges.
