OPERATORS COMPROMISE.
Wireless Men Ordered to Return to
Work.

San Francisco, June 6.-The strike
of the wireless operators against the
Marconi Wireless Company has been
settled and the men reported for
work this morning. The settlement
was compromise. The union is not
recognized, but all strikers are REIN
stated and conditions are bettered.
The wage increase demanded was not
granted
The strikers were instructed by
international President S. j. Konen-
kamp to report for duty today.
While there is no recognition of the
union, there is an agreement that
union men will not be Disseminated
against. The company promised to
reinstate the operators as fast as ves-
sells reach ports where they are sta
toned.
THE settlement is not a victory;
neither is it defeat" said Konen-
kamp. Conditions made it better
to effect a compromise than to con-
tinue the fight, and the company
was very willing to meet us half
way"
1t was distinctly understood that
the operators have the right to join
the union, and the company agreed
to receive and treat with grievance
committee, despite the fact that
recognition of the union as a whole
was not accorded. The matter of
promotions on the basis of ability
and seniority was adjusted.
The company promises to put into
effect rules which will protect the
men from summary dismissal with
out hearing and in case of dismiss
sal for reconsideration of the case.

FORMER ASHLAND BOY.
State Treasurer's Father Ran Ash
land WOOlen Mill.

Tom B. Kay, state treasurer of
oregon and member of the Oregon
highway commission and one of the
three men who govern Oregon, ar
rived in Ashland Friday to repre-
sent the commission at the good
roads banquet. Mr.. Kay is also pres
ident of the Salem Wooden Mills and
is former resident of Jackson coun-
ty, his father having operated the
woolen mills at Ashland many years
ago.
The highway commission cannot
do any state construction this year"
said Mr.. Kay, because only $4,000
appropriation was placed at its dis
posal, but next year there will be
$240,O00 available and construction
work can be done. In the meantime
the services of the commission and
the state highway. engineer are at the
service of any locality applying for
them, and Major Bowlby can be of
material assistance to Jackson coun-
ty in helping it prepare for construc-
tion.
jackson county leads the state in
good roads effort and the state high
way commission will cooperate in
every possible way. We could not
get word to Engineer Bowlby in

WORK AT CRATER LAKE TRY TO WRECK TRAIN
Road i'm Park Being Pushed by
Large Force of Federal
WOrhmen.

klamath Falls, June THE tenn
porary road for hauling supplies from
Kirk to the park line has been prac-
tically completed, according to G. E.
Goodwin, United States engineer
corps, in charge of the Crater Lake
road work, who came in Thursday
from Kirk on a business trip.
THE construction force is now at
work mile inside the park line, -
said Mr.. Goodwin this morning.
They are at Wheeler creek, where
permanent camp has been estab-
lished. From Wheeler creek the
work will be carried on toward the
rim of the lake as fast as the snow
disappears. In getting into the point
designated as permanent camp it
was necessary, few days ago, at
some points-to shovel road through
drifts of snow four and five feet
deep. The snow, though, is rapidly
disappearing.
1--WE expect to commence work on
the permanent roadways by Mon
day." continued Goodwin. "The work
will become more extensive as the
snow leaves. In ten days we will
have large force of men and teams
at work"
According to the engineer there
are twenty men and five or six teams
at work now. In less than two
weeks, as the snow permits of a
greater scope of work, there will be
work for at least forty or fifty men
and thirty or more teams.
A rock crusher for use in prepar-
ing dressing and foundation for the
governments system of roads in the
park has been received at Chiloquin.
Other road-build1ng machinery is ex-
pected daily.
The system of roads to be con-
structed in Crater Lake park by the
United States engineer corps is very
extensive, and the roads will be con-
structed with view to permanency.
1t is planned to make a number of
cross sections of experimental road.
In this manner it will be ascertained
what type of road building is best
adapted to the climate and traffic
conditions in the park.

ASSOCIATION TO
RUN CANNERY
FRUIT & PRODUCE ASSOCIATION
TAKES 1T OVER FOR YEAR.
M. c. LININGER WILL MANAGE IT
Fruit & Produce Association VIII
Conduct Canning Business and
Thus BE Better Able to Handle
Crop.

1t will be good news to the fruit
raisers around Ashland to know that
the Ashland cannery will be run this
year. There has been some feeling
of doubt in the minds of many on
this point, because of the changes
and entanglements resultant from
the operations of F. A. Korman in
connection Herewith. All difficult
ties, however, have been adjusted
and the Ashland Fruit & Produce AS
sociation has arranged with the own
ers of the plant to take it over for
the year and will operate it in con-
nection with the regular business of
the association. M. c. Lininger, the
manager of the Fruit & Produce As
sociation, was manager of the can
merry last year and is thus expert
enced in the business.
The cannery will be run on black
berries, peaches, tomatoes and per-
haps fruits if the supply to be mar
keted is such that there can be more
realized for the producers by canning
than by selling fresh. This will un-
doubtedly assure a good market for
all stuff raised here this year, pro-
vided, of course, the quality of the
stuff is right.

HORSE WENT CRAZY.
Valuable Animal Owned by Archie
Million Ran Amuck Last Week.

A valuable horse owned by Archie
Million, the popular express man,
which had been sick for a few days,
went crazy suddenly one afternoon
last week and made things lively in
the north part of the city for little
while. The horse. which was seen
by L. J. Trefren and Mr.. Ehrmann,
suddenly bolted against a barn and
was thrown flat by the rebound. 1t
then bolted through a chicken coop
and through solid board fence, then
back through the chicken fence
again. Several times it threw itself,
and Mr.. Ehrmann, who is a husky,
heavy man, threw his whole weight
on the animals head, but was tossed
aside as if he had been a feather
weight.
The animal was so dangerous that
Chief Porter was called in to put it
out of its misery.

RAISE TROUT FOR MARKETS.
Ashland Man at klamath Falls Look
ing for Suitable Site.

Northwestern: A new industry,
that of providing Rainbow apd Dolly
Warden trout and other game fish
for the edification of California and
Oregon people at their tables when
game fish are scarce, is to be added
to klamath county's list of resources.
Charles Hosley, a well-known resi-
dent of Ashland, is responsible for
the move.
Mr.. Hosley, who is the father of
E. L. Hosley of Merrill, intends to
secure a tract of several acres, with
proper water for trout, and take up
private fish culture. He has orders
from the leading cafes in San Fran
cisco for all the trout they can han
die, and in his opinion there will be
local demand
Hosley is here looking for a desir-
able site. One place, Barclay Springs,
near Naylox, he believes is ideal. He
is also looking up other good sites
for fish farm"
For the past year Hosley has been
close student of piscatorial cul-
ture, and has given especial atten-
tion to the Rainbow and Mountain
trout. He will be able to put his ex-
perimental work to practical advan-
tage when he commences operations
here.
In addition to raising fish for the
markets, Hosley has another source
of income from the 'fish farm" This
supplying trout fry to the govern.
ment bureau of fisheries, for distri-
button throughout the west. 1t il
said that he has already promised al
the excess fry to United States Fish
Commissioner O'Malley, in charge Of
western operations.

WOOD is ACQUITTED
Lawrence, Mass, Manufacturer Freed
by Jury of Charge of Dynamit-
ing Strikers Homes.

Boston, June 7.-William Wood
was acquitted here today on all
counts charging conspiracy to plant
dynamite to discredit Lawrence
strikers.
Frederick Atteaux was acquitted
on the fifth count, but the jury dis
agreed on the four other counts.
Dennis Collins was found guilty on
the first two counts and not guilty
on the other three.
Wood was Immediately discharged.
Collins and Atteaux remained in
their seats as Attorney Hurlbut re-
viewed the charge of attempted
bribery.
Pelletier said he already had
called for grand jury probe for
Monday and suggested that the pub
lie investigation go over to Wednes-
day, when, he said, he would be in
a position to determine what is in
the story. Judge Crosby accepted
the suggestion and announced that
he would consider the matter in open
court Wednesday.
All last night the jury stood II to
l for Woods acquittal. Shuman was
the only juror hanging out. At 5
o'clock this morning he yielded and
the jury quickly decided Collins fate.
The first ballot on Atteaux' case
stood 8 to 1 for acquittal. Four of
the jurors said they believed John
]. Breen's story and would not dis
regard it in any circumstances.
Atteaux' bail was continued at
the present figure, but it is doubtful
if he will be retired. Pelletier will
not move for sentence to be imposed
on Collins an dthe charge against
him will not be pressed.

Dastardly Attempt to Wreck South
ern Pacific Train Near Salem .
Saturday Morning.

Salem, June "A dastardly at
tempt was made to wreck the South
ern Pacific Willamette limited pas
senger train at 9:1S o'clock this
morning near the feeble-minded
school, three miles from Salem.
A pinch bar lying a short distance
from the track and positive evidence
that spike had been pulled from
the rails was found. There is no
clue to the criminal.
The train. consisting of an engine,
two day coaches, oservation, mail
and baggage, was derailed but did
not tip completely over.
Joe Langlord, news agent, sus-
tanned the most serious injury. He
sustained a severe cut on the head.
Mrs. Isabelle Woods of Sweet Lake
was bruised but not seriously hurt.
Engineer Montgomery saw the
kink in the rails about rs yards
ahead and Immediately applied the
emergency brakes, reducing the
speed of the train from about As
miles an hour to 20 before the derail-
ment occurred. The engine stayed
upright after the derailment. The
end coaches landed against telegraph
poles and held the middle coaches
from tipping over. The steel built
cars again demonstrated their super
iority. They withstood the wreck
with practically no damage, except to
the running gear.

Law
Astoria, Ore, June 6.-The new
law requiring man to produce a
certificate of health before he can
obtain a marriage license, which
went into effect in this state Tues
day, is proving impracticable, accord
ing to local physicians, who by agree
ment have refused to issue the cer-
tificates requested because they de-
clare that they could not conscien-
tiously do so.
The fee provided by law is $3.50
and local physicians declare they can
not make a competent test under
three weeks, and, furthermore, say
few of them have the necessary
equipment for making a thorough
blood test. No physician could un-
d rtake to make the test for less
than SIS or $40, they say, and few
in the city have even refused to put
their signatures to a certificate for
that amount. Yesterday and today
several unsuccessful attempts were
made in the city to secure the de-
sired certificates. The would-be ap-
plicants have as yet not obtained
them.

PARTY FROM TWO STATES
MEETS AT BORDER LINE.
BIG BANQUET AT HOTEL MEDFORD
Several From Here Are Guests and
Movement to Bond County for
100000 Was Launched at Ban
quet Friday Night.

Friday morning two automobiles
from Medford and one from Ashland
met a like number from Siskiyou
county at Hit, Cal, and inspected
the proposed new route over the Sis
kiyous as laid out by Surveyor How
ard. AS proposed, the new road will
go some distance east of the present
one and will be transformed from a
heavy rough grade to a grade of a
maximum of per cent. Part of the
new route lies in Jackson county and
part in Siskiyou county.
The county court of Siskiyou coun-
ty, together with the engineer from
that county and the California state
highway engineer, were present and
with County Judge Tou Velle and
Surveyor Howard went thoroughly
into the proposed change. 1t was
agreed that the Howard route was
practical and would result in as good
highway over the ridge as can be
found along the entire route from
San Diego to Portland.
There were twenty in the party
that met at Hit. After the confer
ence the entire party came over the
hill to be present at the good roads
banquet which was rendered by the
Medford Commercial Club. Ashland
entertained the visitors for dinner at
the Oregon, after which they contin-
ued on their way to Medford.
At o'clock in the evening a ban
quet was spread at the Medford Ho-
tel with 170 plates.
State Treasurer Thomas Kay as
we'll as the state highway engineer
from California were present and Of
fered some good suggestions along
the line of good roads, with special
reference to the Pacific highway now
under construction. Z
The meeting was an enthusiastic
one. Everybody present was in ia
for of the immediate improvement
of the Pacific highway. Mayor John
son, e. T. Staples, E. d. Briggs, ]. w.
Mccoy, Benton Bowers and others
of Ashland, spoke in favor of high
way improvement.
1t is estimated that the new road
across the Siskiyous will cost, when
completed with hard surface, about
S150,000, and to properly improve
the highway through the county will
cost about $150,000 more.
The proposed bond issue will be
for 100000. That will leave about
100000 with which to improve lat
erals into the main highway through
out the county. The next most i'm
portant road to the Pacific highway
is the Green Springs road over the
mountains to meet the splendid road
already constructed to the west
Klamath county line by the commits
sioners of that county. 1t will take
about $4,000 to put that highway
in good repair and Ashland will ask
that that sum be expended on that
road out of the bond issue.
