Included in th«» group already owned
by this corporation aud eontroll«*d
through options are properti«*» which
already have produced gold estimated
at two million dollars.
The corporation, whi<*h is capitalized
at a million dollars and organized un­

office iu Cottage Grove, is th«* result
o f tin* report o f Hugh M. H<*uton, of
Clevtdaud, ()., a milling engiii«‘«*r of
note. While his report, a voluminous
one, b«*ars the «‘urmarks o f eons«*rva-
tism, yet he pre«licts that th«* district
will develop into the best paying prop­
osition in Oregon.
Mr. ll«*ntoii speaks with tin* author

He also is an author of some note

soually in active charge o f operations
in the district, having refused a posi­
tion at a large salary to b«*conn* con­

has an interest.
The reason which always has been
giv«*u by operators for failure o f tin*
district to take its d«*stined position
iu tin* mining industry has been tin*
lack of a cheap im*thod of treating low'
grade ores. Always they have said
that metallurgy was tin* hope o f tin*
district. It is by this process, o f which
h«* is a master, that Mr. Hcuton pre
diets that the Oregon & Ohio proper­

cites that in many eases uot over half

contemplates large expenditures for

equipment. It is anticipated that op«*r

years and have each year added to
their investments there look forward
to a return o f tin* day when several

portunity at th«* May primary election,
if th«*y desire, to rescunl their action
in voting the $2,000,000 county high
way bond issue insofar as the unsold
portion o f the issue is affected.
Steps have beeu taken to place on
tin* ballot what is termed the “ Lane
county road bond repealing law.” Pe­
titions Ion signatures have been print­
ed and will be circulated at once.
The men behiinl this movement d«*-
clure that tlu* taxpayers of the county
demand retrenchment iu expenditures
of public funds in order to reduce
taxes and that this is one good way
to accomplish that end. They state
that to provide a sinking fund to pay
o ff these bonds at maturity u large
levy would be required and that taxes
would be thereby increased considera­
bly.
Thus far $500,000 o f the $2,000,000 o f
bonds have been issue«! aud sold and the
money has been budg«*ted to the vari­
ous roa«l proj«'cts on this y ea r’s pro
gram. These projects will be carried
«»ut, regardless o f what may happen to
the remainder of the bond issue, as the
ntouey has been provided and contracts
have been let.
The w«irk on the Cottage Grove-Lo-
rune road, for which contracts have
been l«*t, would not be affected by a
repeal of the bonding act but the total
amount budgeted to this road is not
entirely tak«*n iu the work conteuiplat-
ed for this year and the remaining
money, as well as that budgeted to the
Coast fork road and the Row river
road would be affected by the repeal
of the act. On each o f the latter roads
$70,000 was budgeted iu the bonding
act, none of which has been used.

PRAYER CAUSE OF SUCCESS
OF ARMS CONFERENCE
“ The peace conference at Versailles
failed because it was neither opened
nor closed with prayer. The disarma­
ment conference succeeded because it
was both opt* tied and closed with

Th«*se ar«* statements made by Miss
Lucile Withers, returned missionary
to China, in an address before a large
audienct* at the Baptist church Mon­
day night.
“ The disarmament conference was
a religious conference,” Miss Withers
stated, 44 conceived by great religious
men, among whom were Hughes aud
Harding, both members of the Baptist
church. The way is paved for the
United States to take its place in car­
rying Christian education to the hea­

so vile that it cannot be mentioned iu
a public address or iu the public press,
where cruelties that almost surpass
belief are committed in the name o f
religion upon superstitious peoples,
where crimes for which men are hung

stitution and a part o f th«* home life.

speaker, handle«! without gloves tHose

VINDICATION AT POLLS IS
QUEST OF JONES
Walter B. Jones, o f Eugene, carrying
out his intentions expressed before dis­
barment proceedings against him were
instituted in the supreme court and
before he was convi«*t**«l o f contempt
o f court, filed Monday as a candidate
for the nomination as state senator
from Lane county. Mr. Jones issued a
st at «‘in«* nt, in part as follows:
“ I have served you four years in
the senate and two years in the lower
house. I served you four years in the
juvenile work and six y«*ars as secre­
tary o f your county fair. My record
will be my platform.
“ I will do all I can to lower aud
equalize taxes, give everyone a fair
deal regardless of personal gain. Never
double-cross a friend. I f I <*au «lo you
any good will appreciate your vote; if
you think not, vote for th«* other fel­
low. I ’m not a chair warmer.”
The candidacy o f Jones makes a
three-cornered fight for this nomiua
tion. The oth«*r candidates are J. S.
Magladry, Row River mill man, and
John B. Bell, Eugene abstracter, who
is completing a term o f four years as
