BANK OPEN NEXT MONDAY Officers and Directors of new Institution Elected Last Thursday Evening. Last Thursday evening a meeting of the stockholders of the new Bank of Jacksonville was held in the bank build ing. Following are the officers and di rectors elected; George L. Davis, President; Jeremiah Nunan, Vice Presi dent; Jay C. Sexton, Cashier; Ray F. Sexton, Assistant Cashier; Edward H. Helms. Next Monday morning at 9 o’clock the bank will be open. Deposits will be received, and whether they are large or small, they will be taken with pleas ure. The new bank is a very handsome in stitution. The heavy oak counters are a home production and an elegant piece of work. Weeks Bros, of Phoenix are the manufacturers. The building has been completely transformed inside and it will be worth your while to take a look at it. Cer tainly it is one of the handsomest banks in southern Oregon, and that is saying a great deal. Most of the officers and directors are well known in Jackson county, and are s >me of our best and substantial citi- zens. The Sexton brothers are young men of sterling character and great ability. We bespeak a big success for the new Bark of Jacksonville. The stockholders of the new institu tion are George L. Davis, J. Nunan, Jay C. Sexton, Ray F. Sexton, E. H. Helms, F. M. Sexton. At a union meeting of the churches in Medford Sunday evening the ques tion of prohibition was sounded and it may prove to be the forerunner of a local option campaign in Jackson coun ty at the biennial state election next June under the local option law. Three years ago last June the question was raised and Jackson county went “wet” by the small majority of 85 votes. It is the judgment of some that the large emigration from the eastern states since that time will overcome that slen der majority and place Jackson County in the local option prohibition class, along with most of the important coun ties of the Willamette valley.

At T i e l’oggi ry. Medio d. In 1851 gold was discovered on Jackson creek. Jacksonville was for years the livliest mining camp in the west. Fully $2),0()0.0i)0 ;n virgin gold has been taken from the hills surrounding Jacksonville. To a there is enough gold hidden under the principal streets of Jacksonville to pay half of the National debt. The output from the placer mines of this dis trict totals half a million dollars annually, and only a few mines are being operated. The Sterling mine alone has produced from $25,000 to $60,000 a year for the past 25 years. Quartz mining is a new industry, and there are hundreds of valuable lelges in the district yet untoaehed. The Opp quar.z mine and 20 stamp mill is being operated to its fullest capacity. Numerous prospects are being opened up. But there is room for capital to develop these treasure-troves. Get acquainted with Jacksonville! “SUNSHINE, FRUIT, FLOWERS” The finest fruit of the Famous Rogue R ver Valley is raised near Jack sonville. But the foothills is especially adapted to grape growing. There are thousands of acres of this grape land to be had almost for the asking. Read what A. H. Carson, member of the State Board of Horticulture, has to say: “I am in hopes Jacksonville will awaken to the possibilities of grape gr>wiig 'on commercial lines, as the foothills adjoining Jacksonville I know to be especially ad ip ed to the growing of the choicest Tokay and Malaga grapes. Jackson creek and Rich gulch have already given up their great wealth and the pioneers of Jacksonville enjoyed it. Their de scendents can, if they will, create greater wealth; more lasting wealth, by planting their foothills to Tokay and Malaga grapes. Market demands will always be greater than their ability to produce.” . JACKSONVILLE. COUNTY SEAT JACKSON COUNTY
