Improvements
In the Valley

Through the courtesy of c. M.
Thomas of the Talent Orchard Com
pany B. w. Talcott of the Tidings
force and Frank Talcott of Maynard,
Iowa, were given a ride around the
valley Tuesday. While the day was
not such that they could do much ex-
ploring on foot, and the roads pre-
cluded leaving the main roads, yet
they enjoyed the trip. The writer
was much impressed with the fact
that though there has been much talk
of hard times in the valley and many
have been cramped for money, yet
there is large amount of improve
ment and development going on.
While little real estate has been NOV
ing the past year, yet those who pre-
viously purchased are going ahead
developing the country. In every
direction new houses, barns, packing
houses, ETC., are to be seen and there
are many indications of thrift and
rogress-progress on a solder base

ference in it. Saving only few
draws to be crossed, the heaviest OF
which are already filled and in use.
This is the most direct, most FEAST
BILE and least expensive of all the
routes, besides accommodating more
people, being directly accessible for
those who travel the Dead Indian
road. This route lies through the
center of the valley above Ashland
and furnishes the easiest and most
even grade, and whatever difference
there is in distance will be found
to be in favor of this route. A we'll
balanced poem could be written on
the scenic features of this route; bal
anced because your view is on both
sides with sufficient distance from
the Siskiyou mountains to give an
impressive view of their grandeur.
The third proposed route is to fol-
low the old stage road to where it
enters Ashland via East Main street.
Here again our crossing of the rail-
road is over the track. The second
route above described enters the city
limits at Walker avenue, almost one
half mile east of the Main street en-
trance. This third route continues
down the old stage road practically
in the creek bottom for about a mile
below where the second route leaves
it. This mile is low with that char
acter of loan sediment over which
good roadbeds are difficult to build,
and at the end of this mile it climbs
to the plateau above, having more of
an elevation to overcome than at the
second and with much heavier
grade unless a new right of way is
secured and a new roadbed made,
which if done will have to be cut
through heavy sandstone.
Doubtless interested readers of
this know that the valley grows wild
er for some distance above this city.
If a triangle were laid down so as
to cover the territory embraced in
and adjacent to that involved in
these several routes, it will be seen
that the one which have designated
as second" will run almost through
the middle of it, and follows section
lines, therefore a straight line. An
examination of the land over which
it lies shows it to be the most per-
feet material for a roadbed and is
practically level.

be a very attractive route Two OBJ
jections to this route are made, and
not without force. The first is that
from the point where you leave the
"stage road" the direction is south
westerly until you reach the Boule-
ward and then almost northwest into
the city with strong upgrade for
the first mile and a quarter, then
downgrade the rest of the way; and
second, the crossing of the railroad
is over the track and on this heavy
grade one way up and downgrade the
other with a curved track on one side
and trees on the other.
The second route is to leave the
''stage road" just below Mr.. George
Owens place and turn west along
the section line between sections II
and IA and sections 10 and Is. This
line is perfectly straight and comes
into the Boulevard at Ashland street.
This route is already established as
a public highway and open for travel
a part of the way and cleared for
the roadbed the rest of the way. On
this route the road will pass under
the railroad track-where it crosses
n draw-with a very easy grade.
This route will meet the Boulevard
pavement near the point where it
enters the city, 1t will also pass
through the new cemetery, with the
city cemetery on one side and the
Odd Fellows beautiful site on the
other and about one-fourth of mile
from the Normal School buildings.
From the point where the line leaves
the old stage road there will be a
rise from the creek bottom to the
bench lands at a grade of 5 or per
cent for less than one-fourth of
mile and from that into the city it
is almost level; no appreciable diff

Sends Girl to
Close Saloons


Salem, Ore.-Governor West isn't
going to send the militia to Copper
field to close up the saloons and see
that the laws are enforced, but in
stead will send Miss Fern Hobbs, his
private secretary.
Miss Hobbs, young, slight and ca
pable, returned short time ago from
an important mission to Washington,
where her ability in handling state
matters pending in congress and be-
fore various government departments
attracted a great deal of attention.
The governor declared she was able
to cope with the situation in Copper
field, although the citizens have de-
clared that their lives and property
are in danger through the alleged
lawlessness of the liquor element.
Miss Hobbs will probably leave to-
morrow.
"If the sheriff and district attor-
ney of Baker county cannot close the
Copperfield saloons, l guess l will
have to send Miss Hobbs" said the
governor.
Miss Hobbs will go with carte
blanche instructions to close the sa-
looms and obtain the designations of
saloonkeepers who are officials in the
little mining town.

there, but if some one should come,
with a proposition that would be a
benefit to the upbuilding of the
town, he would have to make a man
to man canvass which no man of
business would do, and he would
have to establish that hub or center
of strength where one could depend
upon the other and he could depend
upon them all, or his efforts would
be lost.
For another illustration, we will
say there is some heavy object in the
street an dthere is bunch of men
who want to move it, but they can
not all agree and get there at the
same time. One wants to set one
time and one another. Now what
have they done? None of them have
lost any of their individual or physi-
cal strength, but because they have
not got the hub or center of strength,
whereby one can depend on the 9TH
er, they have lost all their strength,
for the thing they intended to accom-
plish.
What the Commercial Club Expects
and What 1t Does Not Expect.
1t does not expect the man to join
that cannot pay dues without taking
money that he feels he cannot afford
to spend, but that man can do a
great deal OF good by encouraging
anything that will be benefit to the
town and community. 1t does not
expect the man to join that has come
here to retire and is satisfied with
things just as they are, and who does
not care for progressive things; he
would be throwing money away. But
it does expect him to keep still and
not be a knocker. But what it does
expect is for the man that is always
telling what the commercial club
does not do, and what it should do,
to join the club and help do these
things as they should be done. He
owes it to himself and to the club.
The sole purpose of the club is to
be progressive, ana the man who
knows how to do things is the man
who is of great value to the club and
the community. Every member that
can possibly attend should be at all
meetings, as all propositions that
come before the club are disposed of
by majority vote of the members.

Yankee Cyclist Gets Big Recep-

The American champion was present
at the Riordan- Arlington game, to-
gether with Manager Floyd MacFar-
land, of the eYlodrome, and Mayor
Joseph P. Riordan,- of Harrison. Kra-
mer pitched the first ball, Mcfarland
caught it and the first game of the
series for the championship of West
Hudson was on. To add to the enjoy
ment of the Harrison fans, the home
team won by the decisive score of E

nine, was in rare form, allowing six
hits during the game. His work on
the mound was backed up by the
heavy hitting of his teammates.

The Arlington performance was
marked by the hitting of Heberer and

Providenee's pennant chances In

yesterday in spite of the fact that
the Grays won. Bill Bailey, the vet

work for the Donovan crew this
year, took the hurdle and jumped to

Is likely to cause lot of trouble,
for it is reported that Bailey broke
his contract after giving a ten-day
notice. That the Baltimore Feds
were dickering for a lefthander was
told in these columns Saturday and
Manager Otto Knabe is tickled at
obtaining Bailey. 1t is not likely
that Joe Lannin, the Grays owner,
will fight for Bailey In court. but it

had received good treatment from

RED" SMITHS Job OFFERED TO GETz
Second-Sacker of Newark Club
Invited to Confer With
Ebbets, Sr.

Before the current week has ex-
pired Gus Getz, star second sacker
for the Newark club, and rated as
one of the best infieIders and pinch
hitters in the International League,
will probably have followed the trail
taken by Jack Dalton, Hi Myers and
Johnny Enzmann-the trail that leads
to Brooklyn.
Getz has been invited over to the
big burg to have conference with
Commander-in-Ch Charles H. Eb-
bets, ST., with view to talking over
terms. Getz signed a two-year con-
tract last winter with the Tigers, but
he naturally expects substantial in
crease on his advance to faster COM
pany.
The Brooklyn club has disposed of
Red Smith, its third sacker, to the
Boston Nationals. This leaves hole
in the infield, and as Getz was third
baseman before he came to Newark,
he is the most logical candidate for
the Job. That Getz would be
snapped up has been predicted right

other Tigers may go with him Mike

is still shivering in his shoes and

Spokane club, has been sold to the
Giants.
Jack Enzmann won a FL game
from Bridgeport yesterday, where the
Brooklyn team played an exhibition.
Fritz Maisel is not the idol he was
last spring with the Yanks. They say
his poor fielding of hunts Is a weak
ness that has been costly to the New
York teams chances.
Only one Yankee reached third yes

Walter johnson lost another game
yesterday, but 1t was not entirely his
fault. The score was 2 to 1 in favor
of Chicago.
Kavanagh is still out of the regular
Detroit lineup. He batted In the

retired by the Boston pitcher. The
Red Sox won from the Jenningsites.
The Springfield Club of the Central

of the poor attendance at its games.

feated the Cubans at Long Branch in

two-run lead off Schauer but could
not hold 1t. Donlin had three safe
ties.
Weaver, shortstop for the White

times in the eleven inning battle yes
terday at the Windy City.
The sale of Red Smith, third base
man of the Brooklyn Club, is said to
be the first move In breaking up a

there was discomfort on the team.
