Fourth of July in Ashland.
Great preparations are lieing made for
the celebration of the Fourth, next
Saturday, and the celebration will be
the grandest ever held in Southern Ore­
gon. Nearly all the lodges, societies,
etc., are at work arranging floats for the
morning parade.
Almost every available conveyance
from down the valley has been secured
by the people in that section to come to
Ashland, and an immense crowd will be
the result.
A Large Merry-go-round.
Wade, Walker Smith, of California,
are in Ashland, opposite Ganiard’s opera
house, with their large, fifty-feet, steam-
power merry-go-round. This swing is
the largest and liest that has ever visited
our city, and will add materially to the

Up Grizzly Peak.
A party of Ashland people left Ashland
last Thursday morning for the summit
of Grizzly Peak, returning home in the
evening. There were nineteen who
made the trip, and among them was lit­
tle Beatrice Jacobs, who is credited with
having climbed to the top as easily as
some of her older companions.
The persons composing the party, are
as follows:
Mesdames. Engle, Otto, Vaupel, Cutz
and White; Misses Miller, Mark, Glea­
son, Engle, Cutz sisters and Jacobs sis­
ters ; Messrs. Hevener, Storms, Engle,
McDonnel and Galey.
When a man decides upon improving
his shop, factory or farm by the addition
of power, he naturally looks for some­
thing entirely up to date. He investi­
gates, considers, and finally decides to
