INDICTMENTS By
GRAND JURY TO.
C0METOMORROW
BURR TURNS UP AND is UNDER
EXAMINATION BY JURY
TO-DAY
Rumored That Nearly Score of
Indictments viii Be Handed Down
And WIN Involve Several Resi-
dents of Ashland.

MEDFORD, July 31.-When the
special grand jury reconvened this
morning, Tom Word, the department
of justice chief, was on hand bright
and early and with him was the
badly scared negro bootblack, Ar
thur Burr, who last March was TAX
en- into the Siskiyous by masked
men, a rope placed about his neck,
and three times swung into what he
thought was eternity, and then un-
der a volley of pistol shots, sent
speeding over the mountains until
he found saftey on the other side of
the California line.
He was to have been on hand Fri
day morning, but he was too badly
scared to come further than Weed,
as the train would bring him into
Medford after dark. Tom Word
was sent after him when he learned
he was at Weed, and brought him to
the city Saturday evening, and has
had him in his charge since then.
He is voluntary witness, not under
arrest, but is closely guarded to as
sure his safety.
All Medford is on edge today, as
it has been since the polls opened
here Saturday morning in the recall
election. and 1t is openly said that
every other citizen is toting a gun
as protection against a probable out /
break when the expected indictments
are handed in by the grand jury to-
morrow. 1t is believed that the jury
will conclude its labors today with
the examination of the witnesses in
the Burr case. They were practic-
ally through with the Hale and John
son cases, when adjournment was
aiken on Friday.
Burr, it will be recalled, had Just
finished sentence in the county
Jail at Jacksonville, and was taken
n an auto by fonr men, ostensibly
% go to Ashland, instead Of which
he was turned over to a mob of
masked men, who took him to the
'iskiyous, not far from the Oregon
inc.
The federal officers here have
given it out that they have a list of
'S1 members of the Ku Klux Klan
n this county, which has been !
'laced before the grand jury, and {
t is expected that this list will be
made public with the findings Of the
ury. 1t is the general expectation
hat there will be nearly score of
Indictments, and that several Ash
and men will be named as among
hose concerned In the night raids. .
This Is, of course, all rumor. The :,
proceedings of the grand jury room
re supposed to be secret, but as !,
natter of course, there is consider :
BILE leakage from witnesses who ;,
ave been under examination.

Scenic Drive to Mt. Ashland
Dear Editor Tidings:
Our community should not allow
the proposed scenic drive to Mount
Ashland to degenerate into a discus
sion as to beneficial or harmful ef-
fects on our city water supply.
condition where such discus
sion would have any foundation
should not be allowed to exist.
Ashland has a great advertising
resource in pure water supply, II
there are no other considerations;
any discussion as to whether this or
that improvement effects the purity
of our water supply, can be and
should be eliminated.
The present intakes are not far
enough back for even an ordinarily
good water supply; the closer to
Mount Ashland we locate them, and
the longer the supply pipe line, the
purer and better the water will be.
The longer pipe line from the in
takes VIII do away with large per
cent of the creek wash, that neces-
sarily results from using the creek
as a conduit for our water supply;
do away with the mudhole-like con-
ditions of our present intakes in
warm weather when the creek is at |
low stage, and will lower the tenn
perature of the city water supply
during the summer months.
Such Improvement is needed un-
der any circumstances, is wise and
practical from any standpoint. and
should be put into execution with
out any delay.
Locate the intakes where they
should be located to give the COM
munity 100 per cent water supply.
Allow nothing above or III the
vicinity of the intakes. This elimi-
mates all discussion now and for the
future.
The scenic drive will not interfere
with such program and should be
started and pushed to completion.
II the tourist hotel and larger de-
yelopment is begun this fall, the out
line above will become an immedi-
ate necessity.
Very truly yours,
HARRY SILVER.

ASHIIAND'S MAJORITY AGAINST
SHERIFF OFFSET BY VOTE
OF COUNTY
Returns from All Precincts viii Not
BE Officially Declared Until We'd
nesday, But Majority for Terrill
Is Admittedly Decisive.

The recall of Sheriff C. E. TerrilI
has been decidedly defeated, the re-
turns showing majority in his
favor of 305 votes The result evil
denced peculiar conditions, with
Medford lined up solidly against
Ashland-the latter giving a major
ity of 421 for the recall and the for
mer registering a majority of 4O5
against it,
1t was the most bitterly fought
election known in this county for
many years. In this city 974 votes
were cast, and in Medford 1881,
nearly double the vote cast at the
recent primaries. To a large extent
the same conditions obtained
throughout the rest of the county,
although the causes contributing to
the general result were different ac-
cording to localities. In this city
the battle was fought out on a
straight "wet" and dry" issue,
while in Medford the fight ragged
around the Ku Klux Klan.
