IX 10 ONE
Home Team Defeats Jack -
sonville in First Game of
the Season Sunday Before
a Fair Crowd of Fans-Only
One two Bagger Made
Modford nil easy winner in tlie first
game of the sonsnn. After nine innings
of fairly good baseball, the Medford
hoys showed their class by defeating
Jacksonville to the tune of ti to 1. Med
fiyd was really entitled to a shutout,
nnd would have had same if Eifert, nf
ter fumbling an easy ehauee, had held
f the ball, instead of trying to catch the
runner out at first when it was hopeless
to try, making a bad throw, which al
lowed Jacksonville their lone tally. All
this happened in the ninth inning after
two men were down.
Sexton, who pitched for Jacksonville,
was surely the limit (for being slow).
In fact, it was due to his lack of snap
that the gamed ragged so at times.
What tho umpire should have done was
to call balls on him every time he de
layed the game by looking all over the
grouuds before throwing the ball. The
very best kind of a ball game eaa be
easily spoiled by just such work.
There was only one double play in the
whole game Wilkinson to Miles to
(.'arter. Boussom pitched a good game
nnd with a little more practice should
'develop into a star twirler. "Wilkinson
at short and Miles at second accepted
overything that came their way with
out an error. Carter at first played a
star game. Although he made one er
ror he more than made up for it by
some really clever plays.
Boussuni had the honors of the game,
striking out 11 men. Sexton and Mc
Intyre each fanned two. Shorty Miles
made the only two-bagger of the game.
The scoro was as follows:

Prosecutor Calls Bluffs
Made by Ruef's Attorney
and Case Is Set for Wed
nesday - Court Orders
Apology From Murphy.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 9. The
hostility and bitter feelings between
the prosecution nnd the defense in the
enso of Abraham Ruef, who has kept up
a running fire of affidavits during the
past month, to which no reply has beea
made so far by tho prosecution, broke
out in court this morning when the lie
passed botween Frank J. Murphy, asso
ciate counsel for Ruef, nnd Francis J.
Ileney.
Murphy objected to postponement of
the United Railroad trolley cases until
March It!. Ileney roplied, "All right
then we will go on trial immedintclv. "
'Wo nro ready, call tho jury," replied
Murphy. The court immediately set the
ase for next Wednesday, whereupon
Murphy, realizing that Ileney was in
earnest, began to hedge. He said that
he was not ready to proceed, that he
had been misunderstood, etc. Honey
arose and said: "It is apparent that
the counsel was juggling with tho court,
endeavoring to deceive your honor, when
he said, "Wo are ready, call the jury.
Murphy said testily, "We are not as
adept at deceiving the public nnd the
court as Honey when he stood before
the jury and lied about immunity."
Ileney flushed hotly nnd demanded
counsel be punished for contempt and
made to retract. Judge Lawlor ordered
retraction. "I retract so far as the
court is concerned," answered Murphy,
but I demand Ileney also be made re
tract that I juggled with the court."
ludge Lawlor paid no attention nnd re
fused to change the order for trial
Wednesday.

Fred S. Morris, bond broker of Tort

Kastorn, W. 1. Vawter, II. (!. Harnett
and J. F. Keddy of Medford, acenmpn
nied Manager R. ('. Doan in an in
spection of the Medford coal mine Sat
unlay. They found much accomplished
towards opening nop the mine and the
quality of coal improving with the
depth.
"The showing is a remarkable one
and means much for this country,'
said Mr. Morris, upon his return
"There is no doubt that the quality of
on) is improving with the work nnd
there is evidently an immense quantity.
' There is no reason why this coal
should not be one of tho country 'h
greatest resources. The construction of
a railroad to tho mine will enable the
handling of a arge output nt small cost,
and so means not only a largo payroll
at the mine, but payrolls in the town,
for manufacturing always follows
heap fuel.
"To got the most out of your natural
resources, sueli as coal ami timber, it
will be necessary for the railroads to
figure on a small profit so as to provide
a largo tonnage. Tho consumers must
be given a chance to make a profit also.
Tho coal mine confirms my opinion that
Medford has more natural resources
than any region T ever saw, and I be
lievo the city has a great future."
Mr. Lewis said: "The showing nt
the coal mine is it remarkable one. It
indicates that there is every prospect
of an immense coal mine at Medford s
door. Tho quality of the coal has im
proved with t he dept h of t he mine.
Cheap fuel plays n great part in the
levelopment of any city and it is des
tined to in this ease."
Tho other visitors talked in the same
vein.

HALF MILLION DEBTS
OF OREOON TRUST PAID
POKTLAM. March 7. About one
fourth of the $J,iMio.fHiO due the credi
tors of the Oregon Trust 4: Savings
Hank already has been wiped out by
the German American Hank, which took
over the assets of the defunct institu
tion and agr 1 t" meet its liabilities.
This is considered a remarkably good
showing, considering the fact that the
bank, under the merger, h: been open
only n month and was allowed two
years bv the court in which to meet
the claims against the old bank. With
iilmut $."iUii,(iOM in indebtedness already
wiped out by means of establishing off
sets and by turning certificates of de
popsit in the old bank in for stock in
the new (iertnai) -American Hank, the
decreasing of the bank's liabilities is
steadily progressing through the deliv
cry of bonds to depositors in the de
funet Oregon Trust who subscribed for
bonds to the amounts of their deposits.
Itond deliveries are made daily be
tween the hours of 10 a. m. and )'2 noon.
Trustee certificate hav been issued
and nro delivered to those who signed
for broken denominations of bonds.
Those who take the originnl denomina
t tons of the securities are givr-n the
original bonds, although many prefer
the trustee certificates, as in that case
the bank retains the bond and the
owner does not stnnd to lose th" secur
ities through accident or fire.
OR., MONDAY, MARCH 9,
Justiceof the Peace Stew -
art Says Is Convinced of
Fait's Guilt Though No
Evidence was Submitted
in the Case.
Fate laid a rather heavy and unkind:
hand on Frofessor Fait last Saturday
when that occult gentleman of mystery
nnd psychology was arraigned before
Justice of the Peace Stewart, charged
with having exposed to the public gam
ii person partially uuconsoious, which
subseoneiousness was produced by hyp-
not ie suggestion.
The dingy otlice of the justice, with
its dusty chairs and untidy appenrunee,
looking as though it had ben plucked
from the pages of Pickwick Papers, fur-
nished a fit stage setting for tho trag -
ly attendant on the professor's arrest
and hearingl While tho court awaited
1
tho arrival of tho district attorney tho
professor told a tale of tragedy, of little
babes that relied upon tho professor for
daily bread and the mother, with a
voice trembling with emotion, wondered
what would become of the littlo ones if
the professor were bound ovor to await
the action of the circuit court.
Assumed Gift of Prophecy.
Justice Stewart reminds one of the
thirteenth chapter of Corinthians in that
he assumes the gift of prophecy nnd
that he has a largo and abundant faith
in himself, but there aro no mottoes
framed upon the wall to tho effect that
'( liarity sutteretli long, and is kind.
or that all else in as sounding brass or
a tinking cymbal, but of the profeHsor's
tria if such it may be called. The de
fendant's attorney waived tho prelim
inary hearing ami urged that tie profes
sor was ignorant of tho remarkable
piece of egislatiou under which he was
arrested and that his bail ought to be
triet attorney also suggested that the
law was rather severe and extreme nnd
aso aske the minimum bail, but the
court was of a different mind and arid
trarily fixed the bail at $125 and fur
ther suggested that he thought the de
fendant would lup out ami forfeit the
bail and that there was no doubt that
ho was guilty; that he, Stewart, knew
how Judge llaiina regarded such things
and that Judge llanua would find him I
guilty, etc
The judges of tho circuit courts, men'
learned in the law, invariably accept i
the suggestion of district attorneys in
the mutter of bail and kindred matters,
but not so with .lust ice Stewart, whose
marvelous prescience of mind, in know
ing just what .lodge H an it a und a jury j
would think of the alleged crime and J
who knew that Fait would fiee justice
and huH bail and who byoccult reasoning!
knew the professor was guilty without '.
hearing the evidence. As a gentleman
who attended the trial said while fleck
ing the grime and dust of tho court
room from his clothes, "even tho littl
boys laughed.
SHEEPMEN CAN RANGE
IN FOREST RESERVATION
porlnnt concessions have just lieen
made to the sheepmen of Oregon by
Chief Forester G if ford Pinchot. Secre j)Mi
tary Dan P. Smythe of the Oregon;
Woolgrowers' association has just been j
notified by Pinchot that hereafter .
heepmen will be given five year leases 1
on range in the torest reserves, instemi ,
f being eompeJId to rnak application

he aNo received lo-tice from the rtfft'f j
forester that hereafter no sheepman
would be fined for breaking reserve
ru without due trial. Heretofore for ,
est superintend! nls have fined sheep
men without trial for alleged infrac-
tious of reserve rubs, but this practice
is now stopix-d. These two concessions

'Sixty Six and Two Thirds
i Percent Raise in Valu
ations of Jackson County
Property and Not Forty
Percent as SiiDDOsed.
Sixty-six and two-thirds per cent in
crease in assessed valuation of property
j in Jackson county, nnd not 40 per cent
: increase, as stated, is tho result of tho
action of tho board of equalization last
winter. The board consisted of County
1 Judge Dunn, County Assessor Applegate
and County Clerk Coleman.
Tax payers who have received state
nients of taxes due, have been busy try
ing to figure out how n 40 per cent fiat
: increase would make their total hold
ings valued so highly. A little figuring
, showed them that tho increase in all
cases was Ctt 2-3 per cent, not 40 per
I ci nt
i
If a man held a pieco of property
j worth $100, his assessed valuation last
j year was $(10. Now it is nssessed at its
full value. 100. Tho increase has been
from $(10 to $100 or $40, nnd $40 is
tifl 2-3 per cent of $00, so tho increase is
nt this ratio,
A number of men reported the actual
amount of cash they had on deposit,

Property owners of tho Koguo River
valey nro much excited over tho pros
pective passage of tho Fulton joint res
olution providing for legal action ngaint
the Oregon-California laud grant, unless
it should bo amended to provide that in
noceat purchasers of railroad grant
lauds are protected.
Many local residents havo come into
the possession of property once belong
ing to the Oregon and California rail
road but lung since sold by them. Should
lotion be taken by tho government to
cancel the grants, local interests will
suffer unless safe guarded by an amend
ineut to this effct.
Tho following telegrams have boon
sent to Congressman W. O. Hawley urg
ing immediate net ion:
Unless Fulton joint resolution
amended excepting expressly innocent
purchasers our interests nro jcopardicd
Hop you will not lave us opn to attack
Hought railroad laud for immediat

"Our people are greatly agitated

rosperity of Medford und South
urn Oregon depends upon absolute valid
ty of titles, many of which come from
railroad. Consider absolutely essential
that Fulton joint resolution bo amend

Unless this be done, it may entail end

Newspaper reports indicate Pulton

with Fulton on the same subject ihid

my associates we havo paid large sums
money to the railroad company for
