The fact that he was unac(Uaiuted with any of the candidates and hadn't liceu horo long enough to bo entitled to il vote made on difference to him. Tho fact is, that after tho double-dealing course followed by tho Southern Orogouiun during the campaign, 'N'lck" was afraid'to oomo out open ly against candidates ho had been fa voring in his paper, so sent this fol low out.to"plug"against thorn.

Instead of going on board tho Mongolia from LrgB Hay, like un ordinary human, ho unnoticed that his place of ein tiarkmont would be kept a dark sec rot. Then while tho crowd haunted tho jetties of Uloniog, Semaphore, Imrgs, and even Heuley Houeh, he nn caked down to out-of-the-way sleepy lirightou, where a launch waited, lie made tho passage across in the stuffy little launch cabin and declined, to come out until tho crowd ou the Mongolia had Huished kissing its de parting friends and gone ashore. At iLhe last moment tho terrified prophet died up the Mongolia's gangway as If Hie devil was behind him with a stink pot and ulinost broke his neck getlng jiito the cabin out of sight. m m j A MONO THE CHURCHES. j 1'ltKSltYTKIU.VN OIIUUUH.

Southern Oregon nines. The proiosition to place a dredgur to work tho old Davenport and adjoin ing diggings two and a half miles north of Ashland, if carried to execu tion would tend greatly to rovivo in terest iu the mining business in this immediate neighborhood and Is worthy of encouragement for this reason as well as for the industrial and commercial ml vantages wnicu u would afford. As for the latter it would be assured from tho day a modern placer .dredger was put to working the gravels. Tho enterprise Is full of promise for the reason that tho working of this ground by a drodgor is known to be feasible and tho gold values which thoy carry have boon established beyond any reason able doubt. Many yours ago tho Dav enport gulch became fanuios for the treasure washed out of it and thous ands of dollars of gold wore mined out. There are numerous well accred ited instances of a minor gotting many dollars to tho pan. In Hear crook and all around that point of land beyond tho Eagle mills gold prospects can bo gotten, but the Dav enport, tho Hen Wyant and tho old French diggings tho miners concen trated tho work most with good re sults,. Yours ago when Ashland was a little villago, a ditch was taken out from Ashland creek at u point up the canyon a mile or more niiovo rowii and water carried to tho mountain side above tho Davenport claim whore It was available to work that and ad jacent claims, being conducted down to the giant with a strong head. It has long boon owned by K. K. An derson and is commonly known as Anderson ditch. Ashland Tribune. W. C. T. U. Items. The Union met on lime at the home of Mrs. Huek, with the president in chair.

Tho great advantages of the Des chutes Irrigation project is that no storing resorvoir is necessary. At its owost stage tho river pours out from 3000 to 3500 cubic feet of water per se cond, uud tho variation is so small that a rlso of eighteen inches iu tho height of the water is considered pheuonieonal. Tho usual spring riso is about twelve Inches. Without any storing of water, tho Deschutes will irrigate about 000,000 acres of arid laud, or 100,000 more than is em braced in the tracts now under con sideration. , In all the other largo Eastern Ore gon projects, dams must bo con structed to storo tho of water spring floods so as to secure a supply for summer use whou tho rivers are low. Tho construction of those reservoirs is one of tho heaviest expenses, and ; the canals and Humes must be con- IBtruetod the same as iu systems re quiring no reservoir. Just below Hend a canal was cou j tructed about a year ago and water J was diverted from the Deschutes river for irrigation purposes. Along tho : course of the canal was a slight de pression, and iu order to get water iu j to the canal beyond, tho plan was to 1 let the water How into the depression I until it was llllcd, when it would How i out ou the other side. Much to the surprise of tho irrigation people, the water found some channel of escape through the ground, and did not 1111 iu tho depression. Kor some time this continue, but ut last tho means of es capo was filled with oither water or stopped with silt and the water flowed on into the canal on tho other side of the depression. A few days ago whoa a large stream of water was turned into the canal of tho Deschutes Company tho wator found a weak place iu the newly made buuke and broke through. Be fore tho water could bo shut off at the hoadgate it had torn through the soil for several hundred yards, leaving a deep channel in Its course The wa ter found an underground passage some placo. Tho break in the banks was repaired and no further trouble was experienced. More Methodists Coming; but Not to Stay.
