CATHOLIC MAY MEET WITH
PROTESTANTS IN CONFERENCE
EDINBURGH, March 9. Committoea
from several nations interested in the.
world conferonco on foroign missions,
to be hold here in Juno of next year,
in ft today to eompleto plans for tho
grent assemblage. It has beon deter
mined that tho cou gross ahull bo the
most representative over hold in the
Christian world, and it is quite possi
ble that tho Roman Catholic church will
tirnd representatives and together con
sider the missionary problems which
both groat branches of tho Christian
church have to meet.
It is said that in the world arc bo mo
-100,000,000 adherents of Christianity,
nnad probably twice that number who
have never beon brought under Chris
tian influences. It is tho expectation
of the committees that 1000 mon will
reprnsont thoir churches at tho Edin
burgh conference and taliat the serious
business of the conferonco will be to
determine how best the whole world
may be reached with the Christian mes
twige. There hnvo been two previous
world Conferences on foreign missions,
the first in London and tho second in
New York in 1000. Next year's con
ference is to be more comprehensive
than either of tho preceding ones, ull
English, Hcotcb, Americnn and conti
nental religious bodies being represented.
DECLARES THAT STATE
AIDED ROADS ARE SUCCESS
PORTLAND, Or., March 0. John R.
Cochrnn, n New York lumber rnilrond
man visiting Portland, declares that
state aided railroads as proposed for
Oregon are pruetic.nl. Ho built a simi
lar road in North Carolina and says
that such a road would greatly increase
Oregon properly ns it did in North Car
rlina. He said: "Our plan in North
Carolina was to go through the county,
hco tho executive officer, make an es
timate of the cost of building the road
across the county, end ask for the
lowest amount tho cost would warrant.
In every ease the authorities granted
the bond issue. It was built at an av
erage cost of $25,000 per mile through
tho mountains and 15,000 acres of fiat
land."

hegun to take definito stops in procur
ing some of the best and most valu
able fruit lands, says the Observer.

fliio tract recently to V. O. King, of
Putte Mont., which was previously
owned by J. W. Smith. Mr. King will

sideration $30,000 . 0. H. Corner

700 acres known us tho Miller farm two
nud a half miles from the city. This
is one of tho best places in the valley
below town. There is a valuable or
chard of 60 acres on tho property and
thin alone would bring in the market n
good share of the purchase price, which
wau $27,000.
TROLLEY LINE RUMOR
AGAIN RAISES ITS HEAD
It is rumored in high circles that an
electric railroad will be built connect
ing Grants Pass, (Inld Hill, Central
Point. Jacksonville. Med ford, Talont
and Ashland, says the Jacksonville
Pest. Tho road can be built if the resi
dents of the Rogue River valley wish
it.
The party who is interested in. the
matter ;it present has had a great deal
of experience with electric railroads
ii nd has been connected with the Will
amette Valley system. Ho has also
rrimiv' a study of this field.
It ih reported that the fair from
Jacksonville to Ashland wijl be 2"i
cents over the electric road and 50
cents to Grants Pa 'is nnd 5 cents to
Medford. Tho car will make the trip
from Grants Pass to Ashland in niuty
minutes, with an hourly service from
Jacksonville to Medford.
Nothing of n definite nature could
ascertained further than money is
talking this time instead of hot air.
