FULLER DISCUSSES
AUTO TOURISTS
AT L. OF O.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu-
gene, March 31.-(Special)
the secretaries of commercial bodies
who are here at the short course for
the second year in succession is j. II.
Fuller, secretary of the Ashland
chamber of commerce. Mr.. Fuller
has taken a prominent part in the
discussions since his arrival here
Tuesday. He has made particular
study of the auto camp ground sit
.uation, and his address on that sub
ject was received with much inter
est.
Mr.. Fuller cautioned the secre-
taries of the danger in regarding
the tourists as a "crop" to be har-
vested. 1--WE got that idea, | think
from southern California. Califor-
MIA seems to have given the impress
sion to tourists that it's their money
that is wanted. Isn't there chance, "
he asked, "to show that we are not
exclusively after the dollar?"
incidentally, he pointed out that
Ashland, which, he said, has the
most beautiful park grounds in the
west, and was the first place to pay
particular attention to the comfort
OF automobile tourists, has prof'ted
considerably from their visits.
The state association of CONNER
cial secretaries is holding its conven-
tion here as the guest of the Uni
versity of Oregon. More than twenty
officers of chambers of commerce
over the state are present, swapping
ideas and receiving instruction from
faculty members of the University
on community problems, public
speaking, office organization and
other matters of vital interest to the
secretaries of commercial bodies.

GRANITE QUARRY
BEING INSPECTED

II. NJ. Parks, director of the state
bureau of mines and geology, is in
the city looking over the Blair gran
ite quarry.
Mr.. Parks was induced to come
here by H. c. Galley, who has been
interested in the granite quarries for
some time past, and is endeayoring
to get the quarry proposition in such
shape that 1t will be taken hold of
by local people, and the quarry de-
veloped into something that will be
an asset to the community.
Mr.. Parks made a favorable report
on the quarry six years ago, but has
not been at the workings since It has
been actually operated His chief
aim at this time will be to ascertain
the amount Of granite that is acces-
slble and he will be at the quarry
for two or three days looking over
the property and making out his re-
port.

called the april Basket Cabaret"
The name is suggestive of the char
acter of the occasion. Each guest Is
expected to bring his own refresh
ments, although First company will

ment such as punch and hot coffee.
In this way the girls will be given

tion in Ashland

ment will 90 to liquidating some out
standing Indebtedness of the COM
pany, such as a note at the bank and

HON v. c. DENNIS
SPEAKS At FORUM

The Hon. w. p. Dennis was the
speaker at he forum luncheon to-
day and gave the facts as they exist
in regard to the automobile and the
taxes thereon.
Mr.. Dennis was a member of the
1919 legislature, and was on the
roads and highways committee. and
contributed much effort towards get
ting fair and just-taX on the ma
chimes owned throughout the state.
The plan worked out was to tax
on the weight basis. In this way,
Mr.. Dennis explains, the tax was
properly adjusted for the weight of
roads, not the value of the car
It is estimated that the roads be-
ing built at the present time will
last not to exceed IS years, at which
time all roads would have to be re-
built, and unless a sinking fund is
established now to take care Of this
future rebuilding, there will be no
money with which to care for them.
Mr.. Dennis advises a light tax on
gasoline to make this sinking fund,
but not to exceed per cent.

BURGLARS RIFLE
HOME AND STEAL
VALUABLE FURS

While Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Moses,
of 81 Scenic Drive, were attending
the theater last night, fastidious bur-
glars gained entrance to their beau
tiful home and after ransacking the
premises from cellar to garrett de-
parted with nearly a thousand dol
lars worth of booty in the shape Of
two very handsome fur coats belong
ing to Mrs, Moses.
The burglar or burglars gained en-
trance through the kitchen door and
departed through the front door, be-
Ing careful to spring the latch after
making their exit. There was every
evidence of the house having been
pretty thoroughly searched. but ap-
nothing but the two coats
were taken.
One of these was a very beautiful
gray squlrrel-skin coat, purchased in
and costing $500, The
other was a Hudson seal coat and
was valued at $400. This was very
conspicuous coat, it being trimmed
with a browninsh fur, known as
German Fitz," and the collar was
made of the same material with an
animals head and three tails at
either end, making a sharp contrast
to the dark seal fur.

OREGON HOTEL
TO OPEN SOON

The Oregon hotel is the name of
the. new hostelry that will open for
business within the next few days IN
the building over the r. X. Isaac and
Company store.
The building was purchased lust
September by Max GeBaeur and after
having refinished the front part Of
the building for his own use, he
moved in and since that time has
been refinishing the other rooms in
the building. All the rooms have
been finished in light colors, giving
a nice, clean, fresh color to the en-
tire interior of the building. The
front part of the building, which Mr..
GeBaeur occupies, has been redeco-
rated and papered and has the ap-
pearance of a cozy home rather than
part of hotel. The furnishings in
the rooms that will be let are of an
ivory color and will make as nice
rooms as one will find in many of
the best hotels. Two of the rooms
have private baths.
II is the intention of Mr.. GeBaeur
to cater to permanent tenants rather
than to the transient trade, and he
already has some of the rooms let
to people of this kind.

MOONSH|NER IS
GIVEN SENTENCE

California boOtleggers seem to re-
gard Ashland as good place to dis
pose Of their moonshine whiskey
from the way that 1t is being brought
to town during the past few days.
AS stated in Saturdays paper, Dave
Miller was apprehended with two
suit cases filled with Illicit bOOze
earlier in the week. At the time of
his preliminary hearing he pleaded
not guilty and was taken to Jackson
vile. After comforting with counsel,
he was returned Saturday afternoon
and changed his plea to guilty. The
only statement made by Miller was
to the effect that the booze found
in the suit case belonged to one Jesse
Millett, and that all he had was In
his pockets. The court promised him
that II he could at any time while
serving his sentence, show that the
suit cases belonged to another party,
part of the sentence would be re-
mitted.
After the close OF the Miller trial,
Jose Salinas, Mexican, who was cap
tured on a freight train Saturday
morning at Siskiyou. with dozen
bottles of moonshine wrapped up in
his bed, was tried.
This trial proved difficult, as the
Mexican pretended to be unable to-
understand English. After some time
had been wasted in the case. with
Salinas claiming not to understand
what was said when asked whether
he were guilty or not, though an
swering questions readily enough at
other times, an interpreter was Sc
cured After the proceeding had
been reviewyd, the Mexican said he
was guilty of having the moonshine
but claimed that he was taken up ut
Hornbr0ok, in California, and could
not be tried here. The arresting Of
ficer was called who testified he had
taken the man in charge at White
Point, station short distance
south OF Siskiyou and about six miles
this side of the state line The court
then decided It had jurisdiction of
the case and assessed fine OF $500
and six months in the county jail.
At the close Of the trial, Judge
Gowdy announced he would issue an
order to Chief Hatcher to dispose of
the confiscated liquor at 2 O'Clock
Tuesday, and that any one Interested
could be on hand at that time to
see the order carried out. 1t is be-
leved that members Of the local W.
c. T. U. will be given the privilege
nj mptving the bottles.

PRESRYTERIAN CHURCH
ENJOYS GOOD PROGRAM

A large audience was delighted
with the exhibit of slides of Oregon
scenery at the Presbyterian church
last night. The scenes were all
photographed by Miss Mabel Russell
with the exception of one showing
bears in the woods loaned by Mr..
Sparrow, superintendent of Crater
Lake park. The clearness of the
scenes demonstrated the expert work
of Mr.. Patterson, local scenic pho
tographer, who developed them.
Miss Berna Haight played fitting
piano accompaniment to some OF the
scenes, especially the crashing mu-
sic for the fire scenes and the sad la
ment of the burned-over district fol-
lowed.
Mr.. Campbell captured the hearts
of all in his readings. Miss Ramona
wise gave piano SOLO whlch showed
no little talent, and Mrs. Esther Ash
craft sang two of Mrs f. A. Woods
compositions beautifully, Mrs. Woods
playing them, while Mrs. Parsons,
church organist, gave splendid
number on the organ.
1t was the feeling of many that
present that some high-priced enter
tainments have not shown the talent
and charm that las: evenings pro-
gram had. The Wednesday club APP
preciates the courtesy of those who
took part in the program and helped
make it a success.
