A roirnt issue of the Monumental
Ni'ws, ii triijlo jouriml of Chicngo, pon- j
tfiins tho folluwing nrticlo regarding
Mrs. JtusBcll of A will a ml:
Mth. Ann Hiizeltino Hill Russell of
. Ashland, Or., is one" of the pioneer wom
en of smitlmru Oregon, and also en
joy the distinction of being n Bkilfull,
priici itiil murblo cutter and carver. 8he
owns a murblo shop in Ashland and
tloett all kinds of stone work, making
a Hpeeinlty of carved monumental work.
Mrs. lUiHsell is a widow. Her late
hiiHlinud, who died some years ago, was
ii native of Pennsylvania, and learned
Imh trade at Pittsburg. Early in the
pioneer days of the Pucific coast Mr.
Kussell came to Oregon, and, some years
later, took up his old trade at Ashland.
He worked exclusively in Oregon mar
ble. Mrs. llussell is ft native of Sweet
water, Tenn., and enmo with her parents
to southern Oregon when she was 14.
She was married to Mr. "Russell when
she was Id, and is now 70.
Mis. Ttussell learned her trndo from
her .husband and in lettering and carv
ing she finally surpnsso her teaehers.
8he has conducted the business since
her husband 's death, nud does all the
lettering, carving, designing nud attends
personally to setting up monuments. She
deelnres: "I aim to pleaso all my' cus
tomers, to glorify Ood, and to hold the
temperance banner high." Mrs. Ttus
mil writes:
"Wo came to Ashlnnd in 1805. Mr.
UiiHsell built a murblo mill here run
by water power, and supplied the trade
and had all the trade of four counties
in southern Oregon. Wo worked ex
clusively in Oregon marble white crys
tal murblo from a quarry about 00 miles
northwest of Ashland. 'About 1875 the
rnilroad was built. After that, Ver
mont marble almost entirely supplnnt
ed Oregon marble in our shop. T de
light to carve in Vermont marble, ns
it is so much softer than the Oregon
stone; (he latter is almost as hard to
work as granite. Mr. Russell and . I
worked together until two years before
f his death. I bore the entire burden
of business caring for my children and
mi invalid husband for those two long
yea rs.
"My husband died in 181)5, nud ever
since Ihen I have been nlone in the
shop. 1 never trust monuments to bo
sot up without my personal oversight.
' All the men, draymen, etc., arc my warm
personal friends, and take my 'bossing'
v iv kindly. I do all kinds of ornamental
work ilesiuus, scroll, and lettering. 1
ran cut inly typo that 1 havo ever seen
(.veil Hebrew, Greek and Latin, which
T do not understand. Old Knglish text
is my favorite." '

DEMOCRATS-TO HAVE
PAPER IN WINDY CITY
CHICAGO, Nov. 18. Indt-fiuito plans
were announced today fur tho establish
ment of a democratic morning news
paper in this city.
According to the usuortioua of promi
nent democrats, fivo cppitalista have
been found who havo agreed to stand
an annual loss of $25,000 each for two
years. This would give the paper ton
years time in which to becomo firmly
established.
The need of a domocratle daily is
admitted here by democrats. The chief
objection at the present time is that
the unsettled coudition of the party has
caused soveral of the men who are
prospecting the paper to desiro its con
trol.
Democratic leaders, howover, predict
that this obstacle will be overcome
and that iu the near future there will
be a morning penny paper of democratic
doctriue in the Wiudy City.

SPRAY YOUR ORCHARDS NOW
For Sana Jose Scale, and Use Sampson's
Concentrated Lime and Sul
phur Solution.
Scale lives and works all tlio year
round. Don't forget this. As the old
scale dies the new is ready to carry on
the destruction of our orchards.
The scalo is less vigorous in tlio fall,
-ind morn easilv nud Burelv destroyed
than in nny other season of the year.
Therefore now is the best time to nt
tack and kill it. If you spray now,
mnnv n valuable tree will bo saved that
otherwise, becauso of the scale, would
not retain life enough to start up in
the spring.
Von have more time now: there is
less wind to scntter nnd wnBte the
spray, and mnko it hard to cover every
part. Then, too, you cannot tell want
may happen to prevent thorough spray
ing in the fall.
Hut. abovo all. the result of fnll
spraying are absolutely certain.
Sulphur soiuuon.
Those are all "spray facts."
"We claim no wonderful ehomicnl dis
covery in this spray, but wo do claim
most emphatically that:
Sampson 'B Inno nnd sulphur solution
ilvcnva nroduces satisfactory results,
m.1 nneq nn ininrv. There is no better
spray manufactured than Sampson's
litno and sulphur solution.
Sampson's liino nnd sulphur solution

GOVERNORS TO
-MEET AGAIN
Second ., Conference In
Washington on December
1 Full Meeting
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18. The much
talked of inventory of tho nation's re
sources is now practically completed.
To consider the material it has brought
together the national conservation com
mission has just announced Us first full
meeting for Tuesday,. December 1, in
Washington. At that meeting tho first
stops will be taken toward putting
into tangiblo shape tho results of the
six months' harj work on taking stock
of tho country waters, forests, lands
and minornls.
One week later, after the commission
has gone over the inventory, it will I
hold a joint mating in Washington
with tho governors of tho states ami
territories, or their representatives. At
this meeting the inventory will be fur
ther discussed nnd the report which tho
president hns requested tho commis
sion to makn to him by .Tnuunry 1 will
bo formulated. ' ' ;
Much Data Gathered.
With less than six months in which
to make tho inventory, the four
branches into which tho commission is
livided, aided bv tho co-operation of
of the government departments, havo
brought together what is probably the
mujit useful collection of facts abonr
tho material things on whiidi mitioiml
industry nnnd progress are bused that
industry and progress are based that
has over boon prestented at one timo.
Roports presenting those facts nnd point
ing out their aiguificauco. havo been
prepared. These reports, smnmnri.ed
and indexed, will bo submitted to the
commission at its coming meeting.
All through the summer general in
terest in tho work nnd object 'of the
conservation commission lias been grow
ing. Tho public, is now well posted
on a subject of which only a few spe
cialists had knowledge nt the time of
tho conference of governors nnd experts
at; the White House iu May.
Governors Helped Work, t
The governors carried the spirit of
the conference home with them to their
own people, and hnve kept things mov
ing ever since by appointing state 'com
missions to study local, problems by
writing nnd speaking upon tho sut-ject
of conservation, nnd by keeping in close
nnd helpful touch with the national
commission. ' I hey aro ready to .take
part in the approaching joint meeting.
Tint bare announcement; that, it had been
not for December 8 resulted in a pum-
bor of acceptances beforo the formal
invitation of the commission had evon ;
got into the mails. ;
When the conservation movement was
started, specific information about thCj.
actual slnto or our resources was partly
wnnting, partly inaccessible. Certain
facts were broadly known. It, was at,
least, unquestionable, that, our resourcos!
had been wastefully used, nnd that
mune of thorn, notably the mines, word
sure in time to bo completely oxhnustJ
ed, while, others, for exnmplo tho for
ests, could still bo kept porpetunlly
useful by right manngeinent. Tho firpt
work was to get tho facts, to show ex-i
actly what the situation was nnd how
it could bo improved by measures that;
would work. Without an inventory of
the resources which should show the.
present condition of tho resources and.
tho way to develop them to the best
advantage, conservation was in daiigei
of staying up in tho air. .
Facts Are AU' There.
But the work is now practically donei
Tho facts aro thoro, in dollnrs arid cents,:
tons of coal, board feet of timber, acre
foot and hure powor.of .wator, acres of.
land. And the possible reform meas
ures havo boon weighed. Tho finnl ro-j
port to tho president will no tho neces
sary supplement to the addresses at;
tho White TIouso conferenco. The im$r
of these addresses waa a note of warn ;
ing.. Tho report is expected to show.
that tho warning must bo heeded if thej
exhaustion of natural resources is not.!
one uav, to impoverish the nation, ana ii
will also undoubtedly bring out how,
tho country's rosdurees can bo devel
oped so ns to last, tho longest possible
time and serve Ihe great est good of the
people.

building has been "to let" -more than 24

find a purchaser if a reasonable valuation is
put on property. Consequently Medford
