Waist Makers Sure
Employers Will End
Strike in Short Time

NEW YORK, jan 16.-There was
hope today that within the next twenty
four hours agreements might be reached
between Representatives Of the en-
pioyers and union leaders whereby
5000 of the 10000 men, women and
children now on strike in the garment
workers allied trades might return to
their work benches.
Representatives of the Dress and
Waist Manufacturers Association met
with the union leaders today, evidently
prepared to grant some concessions. .
It has been but one-day strike for
the women and girls employed in this
industry, however, and some of the
workers feared the conference today
might end as many previous ones ar
ranged for the other strikers have end
ed-without peace.

the aruI.es of strikers reported as nunc-
tusny az usual at the hundreds OF
shops They cid not appear for work,
but 10 try to persuade non-union work
srs from reporting in their places. In
most case The crowds were orderly.
IN the conference arranged by the
leaders each demand of the strikers will
be taken up separately with the repre-
ssntatsvss of the manufacturers' asso-
ciatiou These include an advance in
wages, regulation of hours, sanitary
workshops with ample fire protection
and recognition Of the union.
For the other $4,000 workers whose
cause is still to be fought out. there ap-
peared little hope of an early settlement
today AS thousands of these men and
women have been out of work nearly
two weeks now, they are feeling the
pinch of hunger.
Their leaders admit funds are low in
the union treasury, but all insist the
fight will go on until their demands
are granted.

less variety furnishes the material to
their tastes. Few states offer more
subjects for artistic study than our
own, in very few we find more beauty
and diversity Sf scenery. So it ap-
pears thought our artist, Mr.. w. J.
Whitefeld, who has just brought out
an accurate sketch of Sauk Centre.
We tried to look through his eyes
as we stood on the hill over the river.
We find that our artist has somewhat
OF prophetic insight into the. future.
Not only has he given us what there
is but what there is soon to be. And
yet the two buildings that are only in
prospective are more than counter
balanced by others that have been put
up since the sketch was made. In a
word we are delighted with the pic
ture. Its accessories are very fine
indeed, as well as rigidly true to fact.
We can almost hear the rumbling of
the stage coach and deeply SYM
pathize with the passengers who are
almost there" We recognize our
friends in the ball club on the green.
The cattle in the foreground seem
contented with their position. Happy,
happy cattle, say we. We are glad
to find, waving over all, our bravely
defended old flag. On the whole, as
we look upon the picture of our town
we exclaim; 1--WE are not out of the
world, after ALL"
Mr.. Whitefeld has conferred upon
our citizens a debt Of lasting graft
tude which we hope will be manifested
by large purchases Of the lithograph.
Seldom have we seen a picture that
pleads more eloquently for q place
than this picture Of our artist. Not
a little will it have to do with the.
bringing of capital and settlers into
our region. It is in itself stronger
appeal to the mind than could pos

NAMING OF JOSEPHINE
COUNTY DISPUTED QUESTION

Following the publication of Mr..
Parker's article, I. p. Hackleman of
Albany wrote the following version
of the naming of the county, John
Althouse, pioneer, maintaining that
the name came in honor Of Miss Jose
phine Rollin. This latest contribu-
tion to the early history is as fol-
lows.
IL notice that there is some con-
troversy over the question as to
whom the county of Josephine was
named for. John Althouse, a
resident of Albany, is a pioneer of
1851. He informs me that he was
one of the party which named that
county and that 1t was named In
honor of Miss Josephine Rollin, one
of the first white women In that vi
rinity.
"Mr. Althouse says that the young
lady with her father came here from
Iowa and that they formed a part
of company of IS or 20 persons
of which Mr.. Althouse himself was
one, who went to the southern mines
Rogue River courier. (Grants Pass, Or.) 1886-1927, 1913-11-14

in 1851 from Albany; that Miss Roll
lin was a young lady about II years
of age and that her mother was dead;
that her brother came up from Cali
fornia after her and she went with
him to California, but that her father
went back to Iowa. Upon her de-
parture the people named the county
Josephine in her honor.
"Mr, Althouse Is now about SO
years of age and remembers the cir
cumstances very we'll Mr.. Althsuse
gave the name to the Illinois river

for hay, even when too mature TO
make first class hay, was relished by
cattle and sheep, all but the coarse
stems being consumed. This stock
was all fed regularly on alfalfa pas
ture or alfalfa hay and no attempt
was made TO "starve the stock TO
sweet clover"
d. W. Beebe told the writer
thar a load OF sweet clover hay
placed in the corral as worthless
came TO be so much to the liking OF
his COWS that they would run to it
when the corral gate was opened.
NJ. NJ. Tucker OF Ashland sowed
two small experimental plats OF sweet
clover on heavy upland soil last
March. One OF these plats, about
one-eighth of an acre in area, sup
piled pastrue for seven lambs all
summer. The other plat was used
for sheep pasture and to some extent
for milch COWS. Mr.. Tucker assured
the writer that his stock ate the
sweet clover readily, though accus-
toned to alfalfa, and that the cows
really seemed to prefer the sweet
clover TO alfalfa when given their
choice of pastures No Objectionable
flavor was noticed in the milk. Mr..
Tucker is confident that sweet clover
is a valuable crop for this country.
Several farmers in the valley will
SOW sweet clover experimentally next
spring. At Green Acres" sweet
clover will be given thorough trail
to determine its value as compared
with alfalfa. A few acres will be
sown on irrigated land formerly in
alfalfa and some will be sown on un-
irrigated upland for a comparison
with dry land alfalfa.
The U. S. Bureau of Plant Indus
try, Washington, d. c., has published
40-page bulletin on sweet clover
and the Ohio Experiment Station,
Wooster, Ohio, has issued an even
more elaborate publication, and as
these sources of information are
more authoritative and complete than
any newspaper article can we'll be,
any one considering sowing sweet
clover should possess himself of one
or the other of these bulletins. The
more so as there are some specia
points to be given attention in seed
ing and handling this crOp-such az
treatment of hard-shelled non-germ
Unable seed, proper preparation Of
the seed bed (too fine a seed bee
seems to work against best results)
curing the hay. reseeding, inducini
stock to eat it, etc, etc.
The statements herein are all made
either on authority of the bulletins
named above or on the writer's owl
experience. If this letter stimulate
some interest in sweet clover to th'
ultimate benefit of the livestock In
dustry in the Rogue River valley 1t
purpose will have been gained.

Last year the levy made was IS
mills in this county, but this year
10 mills will probably be required.
This 19 mills will include all taxa
tion outside the school districts and
city. The road tax of five mills also
applies to cities this year. Last year
the road tax was not levied inside
incorporated towns. With the addi-
tion of the road tax and one mill to
the general tax, the people of Grants
Pass will this year pay 361s mills, as
against SOA last year, providing the
city levy remains the same. The 8 "

total.
