New National
Tennis Champion

w. NJ. Johnston of San Francisco
won the United States championship
at Forest Hills, N. Y, Tuesday by
defeating his fellow townsman, Maui
rice E. Mclaughlin, 1-6, 60, rs,
1913. The contest, which developed
the most sensational play since the
famous meeting between Mclaughlin
and Brookes on the same strip of turf
a year ago, was an exhibition of both
racquet skill and court generalship.
Another factor, and the winning one,
was that of endurance, and in this
respect the victor had a decided ad-
vantage over the vanquished, espec-
tally in the long drawn out fourth
set. Johnston's ability to keep Nc
Loughlin in deep or mid-court most
of the time while he used his short
ground strokes and backhanded cross
court slashes gave him the winning
points in crucial rallies.

Commercial Club
Drops Delinquents

The Commercial Club held its reg
ular monthly meeting Monday night
and transacted the usual routine
business, after which number of
members who lacked the spirit or
money to keep their dues paid up
were dropped. The Commercial Club
now has a solid active working body
of over $50 members, every one of
whom is a live member and booster.
Several matters were discussed but
no important action taken. Commit
tees were reported to be hard at
work on the Farnum hill grade pave
ment matter, the Lake of the Woods
road and the hotel proposition, and
results may be looked Tor.
Announcement was made that the
mineral waters would be flowing in
the park by the middle of October.

Many Matters
Occupy Council

The city fathers underwent the
usual agony OF the reading of the
lengthy monthly reports Tuesday
evening, after which paving matter
adjacent to the Silsby estate was ex-
planned by Mr.. Billings and referred
TO a committee. A project for ex-
tending the park sewer for several
hundred feet north and south on
Granite street was talked over and
referred to a committee. The sani-
tary committee reported finding no
reason why the petition Of adjacent
property owners, asking for con-
demnation of the blacksmith shop on
First street, should be granted. They
recommended, however, that the or
dinances regarding street obstruc-
ton be inforced in connection with
this establishment. Investigation OF

New Jail to be
An Inside Inn

After thorough Investigation of the
Jail location matter the council found
that to build the jail at the first

Offers Solution Of Railroad
Grant Land Problem in Oregon

in the lands, amounting to $3.50 an
acre. II the terms of the original
grant are enforced by congress rela-
tive to future disposition of the vast
area, whereby the lands shall be sold
to actual settlers only in quantities
not exceeding 1863 acres and at a
price not more than $3.50 an acre,
for which the speaker contended, in
his opinion, all the lands involved
would pass into private ownership
and become subject to taxation with
in six months after the passage Of
such a measure by the national legis
lative body.
Jeffrey warned his hearers against
all attempts to have the grant incor-
porated within the limits OF any res
ervation, forest or otherwise, and
cited glaring instances where there
had been abuses of the act of June
IL, 1906, permitting homestead entry
of lands susceptible to cultivation
even though situated within the con-
fines of forest reserve. In the re-
gion north of Il ute Falls, he said, in
township "a south, ranges 2 and 3
east, OF the Crater national forest,
settlers had gone there for the pur-
pose of creating homes by the exer-
else of their legal rights under the
act Of congress noted, but had been
driven out in cold-blooded fashion by
the Forestry Service on the ground
that the tracts of land embraced in
their homestead applications we're
more valuable for timber than agri-
cultural purposes, Notwithstanding
the fact that positive evidence in the
form Of sworn testimony was pro-
duced before the Department of Agri-
culture to the effect that all of the
land affected was prolific in charac-
ter, and that sone of 1t was of the
"beaver dam" quality. Moreover, he
said, the region was deemed capable
of supporting such an enterprising
community that the erection of pub
lie building was begun for social pur-
poses, the foundations Of which are
still standing as mute evidence OF the
inhuman attitude of the Forestry Ser
vice.
According to Mr.. Jeffrey, the only
losfCal relief available under the cir
cumstances is for the voters of the
district in this state affected by the
grant to express their views in no un-
certain language, calling for the en-
actment of national legislation en-
forcing prompt compliance with the
conditions of the grant as it existed
which contemplated that

Permanent organization of move
ment having for its purpose the en-
forcement by congress of the original
terms of the Oregon & California
Railroad Company's land grant was
effected in this city last Tuesday
night at an enthusiastic meeting in
Chautauqua tabernacle, over which
Bert r. Greer, editor of this paper,
presided.
John A. Jeffrey, now of Portland,
but for several years prosecuting at
torney for the judicial district en-
bracing the counties of Josephine,
Jackson, Lake and Klamath, was the
principal speaker, although at the
close of the meeting there was a gen.
eral discussion of the issues involved
in the final disposition of the lands
Incidentally, Mr.. Jeffrey is native
son OF Josephine county, having been
born and reared in the Applegate
country, and has twin sister resid-
ing at Medford hence is we'll quail
fled, both through experience and
ability, to handle the subject of his
discussion.
After paying an eloquent tribute
to the natural resources of this vi
cinity, and directing special attention
to the Importance of the improve
ments hereabouts in connection with
the Ashland park project, which he
prophesied would operate to attract
settlers and investors from every sec
tion of the globe, Mr.. Jeffrey pro-
ceeded TO enter into full and care
full diagnosis of conditions surround
ing the disposition OF the grant lands.
That he was indulging in no idle re-
marks is evidenced from the fact that
Mr.. Jeffrey was equipped with an
authentic copy of the decision of the
United States supreme court, rem
dered June 81 last, besides copies of
the governments bill of complaint
and Judge Wolverton's decree of alb
solute forfeiture of the grant for non
compliance with its terms by III rail-
way corporation, in addj'' to copies
of affidavits from the assessor of
each county affected by the grant,
showing the extent thereof, its tax
able valuation, together with its re-
lation to economic development OF
the region.
He declared that AL, 900 acres are
included in the grant in this county
alone, and that the amount of unpaid
taxes thereon aggregates more than
90,000, only a small proportion of
which can ever be collected for the
'eason that the decision of the U. S. !
supreme court imposes on the rail-
'oad company but nominal equity

NUMBER 81
Saw Hooper In
klamath County

klamath Falls Herald: That
Hooper, the gentleman hold-up man
and criminal OF repute, walked
through klamath county on his way
south, was established Monday morn
ing by the sheriff's office, when S. A.
Nichaelson, a farmer near the fair
grounds, reported to the office that
he had seen Hooper and talked with
him.
He was following the Southern Pa
ciflc right of way, inquired the dis
tance to the state line, and went on
his way after talking for a few mo-
ments.
Nichaelson stated that though he
had seen the articles appearing in
the Herald about Hooper, and that
he was being sought by the authorl-
ties, he did not think tney wanted
him very bad.
Hooper was reported last week to
have been in the Wood River valley.
Word has been received from the
sheriff of Grants Pass that he was
in the KlamaU country, but was be-
lieved to have been farther south.
He was wanted at Grants Pass for
breaking Jail and for holding up the
depot there. He has a record of a
string of hold-ups from Yreka to The
Dalles, and is a parole prisoner from
San Quentin.
Nichaeson said that he was salts
fled that the man he saw was Hooper,
as he wore glasses, answered Hoop
er's description as printed in the
Herald, had bushy hair, and was
wearing cap which he wore tightly
over his head. Hooper told him he
had money and could ride, but pre-
ferred walking.
Sheriff Lewis was telegraphed this
morning OF Hooper's presence near
here, and that he had gone to Cali
fornia.

Government Aid
For Irrigation

The aid OF the United States and
state governments will aid the Rogue
River valley in the planned irriga-
tion projects. After the expenditure
Of much persuasion and the getting
of the approval Of numerous officials
the Water Users League has secured
the promise Of a federal survey OF
the water resources of the valley.
The survey will be made Immediately
by Division Engineer Whistler OF
Portland in conjunction with State
Engineer Lewis, and will be paid for
by the state and government from
the joint fund set aside for reclama-
tion work.
The object of the survey is to as
certain definitely the area of the val
ley that can be irrigated, the amount
of water available for irrigation from
the various sources, the estimated
cost OF construction and recommend
ations as to methods of securing the
water
The amount OF water that can be
developed from each available source,
the cost of developing and placing it
on land, and the comparative merits
of the various irrigation schemes
will be definitely ascertained by non
interested and authoritative en-
gineers, whose recommendations will
form a definite plan to present to
the people to secure needed irriga-
tion.

Interest In
Revival Growing

Unheralded by trumpet blast and
without special preparation of any
nature on the part of the church,
revival services were begun at the
Christian church last Sunday by N.
j. Reasoner, former citizen of Ash
land who has returned to look after
business interests, having entered the
ministry since leaving. At the very
first service two accepted the invita-
ton and were baptized at 6 o'clock
Sunday evening. At the evening SER
vice Sunday a good sized audience
was present and enjoyed the inspir-
ing music and gave splendid atten-
ton. Thus far the sermons have
been directed primarily to church
members, though last night Mr.. Reas-
oner paid his respects in no uncer-
tain manner to those who cleared
Martin of the charge of numbering
Hubbard upon the ground of self
defense.

Sunday evening the hour will be

RebOnding Plan
Meets Opposition

Medford's city council staged a
miniature word war Tuesday night
when several Of the members locked
horns with the hackers Of the scheme
for rebonding the city of Medford
for an amount in the neighborhood
OF a million dollars to postpone the
day of judgment on pavement assess
ments which have put some of the
property owners up to their necks in
debt. After a considerable discus
sion which one would deem must
have grown quite heated at times
from the accounts which appeared in
Medford papers, the matter of call
ing an election for September % was
tabled. The opponents to the re-
bonding plan claim that the pave
ment assessments should be collected
under the Bancroft act.
The proposed rebonding plan would
throw a portion of the payment onto
the owners of land in the unpaved
districts in the city and is meeting
with much opposition.
Ashland may well consider herself
lucky in that the pavement was not
greatly overdone here and that with
the exception of few of the main
thoroughfares which become seas oil
mud in the winter and will eventu-
ally have to be paved, there is no
immediate need for much more paw
ing as the sandy nature Of the streets
on the hillsides of the city is ideal
for gravel drives, insures good
drainage, and is adaptable to grad
ing.
Medford may we'll be proud of her
miles OF paved side streets and cross
stretches, but at the same time she
may we'll be sorry because OF them.
