Canada's Panama Canal

From the Toledo Blade.
 Travellers on the Ontario railroad q s between Windsor or Sarnia and Mag ara falls have been impressed with. in recent months by the sight of engi-i neering work rising stiff high from the base of a broad valley This is the reconstructed Welland canal and with the exception of the Panama canal it is the boldest and most ambitious artificial waterway project ever underl taken
 The first welland canal was built in the thirties of the last century. Since then it has twice been rebuilt to ac- commodate the enlarging types of lake vessels. The locks of the presen { canal, completed in 1880, will handle steamers up to about 260 feet long arc uEaught under IA feet. It was thought at the time of it's designing that lake craft would never exceed these dimen- sioDs. The idea proved erroneous as we all know. But Canada is not weep ing over the bad guessing. Instead she has set about to correct the mis- take and when the new canal is fin ished the locks will measure 500 by 80 feet with 0feet of water over the sills at extreme low stages of the lakes.
 As the canal will permit the passage of not only the largest lake craft in existence and of large ocean steam ers the effect on commerce will be pro- found Much of the grain now dis charged at Buffalo will go down to Montreal, much will continue on to foreign ports without rehandling For eign merchandise will come up to be dropped at lake ports, the first hand ling after the slowing of the cargo In the course of time we are likely to become quite as familiar with sea- going steamers at our wharves as we are now with vessels of distinctively lake construction.

Tin Rapidly Disappearing

r foNI UTE HHs siiItefIHB MdgdzIne,
 With regard to the future use of tim it may be said that we are dealing with the one metal whose known ore reserves are entirely inadequate to even the pres- ent demands, and that unless some new source of supply Is deveioped very soon we may expect to find that tin is a very scarce metal indeed.
 Of the present sources of tin ore sup ply, most are either, stationary or reced- ing in output. Bolivia being the only one which gives promise of permanency and of future growth. Under these conditions the question of substitute metals becomes of importance. and aluminium. zinc and steel all have some posesbilities in this direction in one way or another.

Another Ashland
Booster Made

M. j. Geary, general Pacific coast
agent for the Rock Island railroad
lines with headquarters at Portland,
was visitor in the city recently. He
was taken over the city and was pre-
sented with set of scenic photos Of
Ashland scenes, which he promised to
place in the window of his Portland
office.
The following letter was received
from NJ. Geary:
Dear Sir: My dear friend, Mr..
George Kramer of the Southern Pa
cific railway, gave me the treat of my
life this morning. lie took me
through Ashland's natural park, the
most beautiful one | have ever been
in. With such beauty at your door
there are no limits to your tourist
possibilities. You are doing a won
derful work for Ashland and Oregon
in developing these natural beauty
spots where the tourist from the east,
west, north and south will come by
rail and auto to enjoy the fruits of
your labor. Progressive, original and
persistent advertising will bring their
just reward, and as you have the
goods to deliver every visitor will be
a booster. NJ ]. GEARY."

Contracts Let For
Painting School

The West Side school is to receive
a coat of paint inside and out. Wat
son Rigg were awarded the con-
tract for the painting of the exterior
and A. R. CLANCY the interior. The
two contracts aggregate $500. The
building was erected in 1904 and
stands as a monument to the consci-
entious work of the contractors who
had the job, as it has not required a
coat of paint since until now.
The West Side school building and
the school grounds form one of the
most beautiful of Ashland's beauty
spots Clinging vines clothe the
front of the building and a perfectly
kept lawn, artistically arranged
shrubbery and majestic trees COM
plete the effect.

Bow Of Fourteen
Forges Check

A certain sourteen-year-old boy,
whose name we will refrain from
mentioning, passed check on one of
the local merchants the first of the
week and was hauled up before the
police. The boy had secured num-
ber of blank checks and was going
into the business. He had obtained
his ideas from novels and newspaper
accounts of forgers and from adver-
tisements of check protectors which
told how easy it was to raise and
forge checks.
Because of the extreme youth of
the embryo criminal he was not jailed
but is out on good behavior. This
should be lesson to other youths
who are contemplating quick trips to
wealth by the check forger's route.

Band and Picnic
On July Fifth

Ashland's celebration Monday, July
3, is just a good old-fashioned basket
picnic in Canyon park. The commit
tee has secured the services of the
hand for the day and there will be
a few eXtemporaneous speeches. A
restful, quiet, sane Fourth is what the
majority of Ashland folks seem to
want this year.
All participating are expected to
bring a basket filled with whatever
they see fit. If desirable all can join
in huge family dinner or form
groups with neighbors and friends to
suit themselves, In any event it will
be great family gathering. Black
coffee will be served on the grounds
free to all who care for It. Many
Ashland citizens do not realize what
has been transpiring in Canyon park
and this will be a great opportunity
to get together for a public inspec-
ton. Friends from any part of the
valley or California are cordially in
vited to participate.

tee, and Mayor Johnson and Mr.. Ware
on the part of Ashland met at the
Billings hill this morning and went
carefully over the situation.
For some time it has been a ques-
tion whether the hill would be graded
out of state funds or by the county
court out of the bond fund. En-
gineer Cantine made itHlear that the
state appropriation would be used on
the Siskiyou grade from the junction
of the Pacific highway and the Klam-
ath Falls road to the California line.
The county still has approximately
500, 900 left out of the bond money,
including $4,000 coming from the
state and $1,000 from the railroad
for its share of the expense in max
ing overhead crossings on the Siski-

BILE which eastern doctors had pro-

health and began taking the lithia

extraordinary medicinal properties of

steady daily consumption of the wa

his cure in his home state.

Displays Handful
OF Gold Nuggets

Major Carter displayed a double
handful of gold nuggets and rotten
quartz shot full of gold on the streets
one day last week and states that he
and his pals have struck a vein of it
fourteen inches wide and traceable
for sufficient distance to make a
big mine. 1t was found with a gran
ite wall on one side and porphyry on
the other. 1t is declared that a gold
find under these conditions does not
pinch out, Mr.. Carter has taken a
sack full of the ore to an assayer and
states that interesting announce
ments will be made later. At present
he will only say that the mine is not
two and a half miles from Ashland.
