The work of the Commission has a
real economic value. There are 1866
miles of running streams in Kentucky,
which under present conditions pro-
duce considerably over one million dol
lars worth of food fish each year, when
figured at 10 cents per pound, which
could easily be doubled if the laws of
the state be enforced.
II 1912 the game wardens captured
and destroyed 1,OS8 hoop and wing nets,
67 seines and traps, and tore out 80
dams and fall traps. 1t is estimated
that one hoop net will take 1000
pounds of fish a year, so the 1,0S8 nets
which were taken from less than 500
miles of streams represented 1,Oss,OO0
pounds of fish a year.
The United States Government,
through its Fisheries Department, have
facilities for distributing fish to the va
rious states, but they have refused to
plant fish in territory that is not pro-

Wants Damages
For Death of Bow

Mrs. Mabel Chapman recently petit
toned the city council for damages
for the death of her son, Lloyd Chap
man, who was killed by motorcycle
on the streets of the city during the
last Fourth of July celebration which
was held in the city. The accident
occurred while the motorcycle racers
were warming up for the race which
was run on the Boulevard Young
Chapman came out of Loomis's con-
fectionery and, mounting his wheel,
rode directly into the path of Smith
of Medford, who was coming in the
Boulevard at a mile a minute clip.
The lad was killed almost instantly
and Smith had a narrow escape from
death.
The matter was referred to the city
attorney, who gave as his opinion that
the city was in no way responsible for
the accident and that 1t could not be
held responsible before the law. AS
a result the petition for damages was
refused.

Put Up Bond and
Work Goes Forward

Messrs. Dodge and Greer of the
springs water commission filed bonds
in the sum of $4,000 each with the
city recorder yesterday and the park
work will proceed as originally
planned. Mr. Jordan put men to
work on the new bridge at the end
of Lithia Park Drive, several work
men returned to destroying poison
oak and a number of men and teams
will finish the Lithia Park Drive at
once. Today the title is being ar
ranged for the purchase OF the plan
ing mill property at the head of Mill
street and the old bottling works
property and that of the abandoned
site of the Ashland electric light
power house will be taken over. Mr.
McLaren will arrive within the week.
or the first of next week, and the
landscaping of the park will proceed.
Now that all legal questions have
been seat at rest by the adoption of
the charter amendment Monday the
work will go forward with a rush.
The contract of Smith, Emery & Com
pany is necessarily proceeding slowly
as the waters of each of the springs
must be first developed and "har-
messed" ready to attach the pipes and
but few men can be employed imme-
diately about the springs at once. The
hot sulphur is ready for the concrete
work, as soon as the ground is suffi-
ciently settled, the soda well has been
cemented against intrusion of surface
waters and Is being measured today.
The rig is about ready to proceed with
drilling at the new lithia spring,
where it is believed veritable gush-
er will be produced.

which, however, came in the form of
"a four-year county warrant. A four
year warrant is, of course, not worth
face value. Repayment of the money
to the citizens of Ashland was orig
inally deferred for a year so that the
money could be taken out of the next
years taxes because the county had
already spent part of the $4,000 in
1914. That this money should be
special fund and should be paid back
in cash and Immediately was the
opinion of Councilman Ware, in
which he is upheld by the council and
the city attorney Mr.. Ware and At
torney Moore will make trip to
Jacksonville and investigate the mat
ter.
Another county tax matter which
will be investigated will be that of
Ashland's share OF the county taxes.
Lack of money on hand is necessitat-
! ing the manipulation of the city's
funds from one fund to another, a
procedure which would be unneces-
sary, says Mr.. Ware, had the city re-
ceived their share of the taxes which
have been paid in. Mr. Ware looked
up the matter with Attorney Moore
and found that weekly settlements
must be made by the county treasur-
er. The treasurer has made but two
payments, according to Ashland off
cials, since he has been in office. Re-
ports sent out from Jacksonville
claim that approximately two-thirds
of the taxes are paid and the commit
tee for the council intends to find out
why Ashland has not received it's
share

Council Wants to Know Whv
County Holds Back Taxes

City Attorney Moore and Council
man Ware were appointed by Mayor
Johnson to go to Jacksonville and in
vestigate matters pertaining to Ash
lands share of the taxes, at Tuesday
evenings council meeting. The at
tention of the council was called to
the existing tsate of conditions by
Mr.. Ware, who has looked up the sub
ject with the aid of the city attor-
ney.
According to Mr.. Ware there are
several thousand dollars in the coun-
ty treasury which belong to Ashland
and which Ashland should have had
long ago. The $4,000 refund due
Ashland as a result OF a decision of
the supreme court has not been
turned over. This refund came about
in this way: Each city, according to
the state law, has right to decide
whether they will pay the county road
tax and have the county build roads
through the city as was done in Med
ford, or take care of their own roads.
| Ashland does not have to pay the
county road tax. The county officials
collected it anyway in 1913 and the
matter was carried to the supreme
court, where decision was handed
down favorable to Ashland 1t was
understood that the county was to re-
fund the $4,000 should the decision
be unfavorable to them. The county
then announced that they would pay
back the amount on presentation OF
claims. The only claim which the
council members have heard of being
paid was one to Charley Gillette,

Morning. Fire Burns
Two Restaurants

About o'clock this morning fire
caught from the range in the Rosen-
stock restaurant opposite the South
ern Pacific station and destroyed both
the building in which it started and
the one next to the east. The fire
would no doubt have burned all of
the frame structures along "Restau-

stone building in between. Ote King,
the night man at Rosenstock's, was
standing out in front when the blaze
started and says that the whole in
side was a flash of flames in a few
