Mining Company Tries Experiment of Shipping Machinery Down Treacherous Stream to Mines. GRANTS PASS. Or., June 16. (Special.) As to whether Rogue River is navigable for large sized boats is, to be demonstrated in the shipment of a sawmill and mining outfit from Grants Pass des tined for the irines of the Rogue River Mining & Development Company located at Paradise Bar, 65 miles from this city. There are eight tons of the equipment and two boats are usedfor its transportation. These boats are 27 feet long, S-foot deck beam and 4 bottom beam and draw 27 inches when fully loaded. They are built extra strong to withstand the hard ser vice that they will have to undergo and a supply of oakum, pitch and other repair materials is taken to stop leaks that may be caused by collision with boulders and other obstructions. The boats were built under the direction of J. B. Thurner, superintendent for the company. Mr. Thurner has had much experience in freighting on the wild mountain streams in Alaska and he feels confident that he can easily, navigate Rogue River with boats up to 10 tons capacity despite the boulders and rapids that now make it dangerous to fish boats. A. Aubrey will be the pilot for the flotilla. Mr. Aubrey was born In this valley and is one of the best known fishermen on Rogue River. He is a giant In strength and he is said to be able to put a boat over a rapid that none of the other fish ermen can stem. And he Is as coolhead ed as he is strong and he will get the boats through the wild rapids if such a thing is possible. If this navigation venture is a success two other mining companies operating on the lower Rogue River will at once take in quartz mills and other equipment for their mines. - This diggings, known as the Mule Creek district. Is one of the richest and least developed placer and quartz sections of Southern Oregon. The only way to reach it by land is over a moun tainous trail from "West Fork on the Southern Pacific, making it Impossible to get in heavy machinery. As the trade of this district will be an important matter to Grants Pass, the Commercial Club Is taking an active interest In this Initial shipment and if it proves that heavy freight can be transported down the river, the club will take up the matter of Im proving the channel of the river by re moving the boulders that now render the rapids so dangerous. It is the opinion of Captain J. M. Mclntire, a former well known Columbia River steamboat man and now a freighter in Southern Oregon, who examined Rogue River with a view of freighting by it, that it could readily be made navigable for at least eight months of the year for Bmall steamboats. The Commercial Club will have a careful estimate made this summer and if the cost Is not too high the citizens of Grants Pass will co-operate with the mining com panies of the lower Rogue River in hav ing the boulders blown out of the river channel. Anticipate Busy Lumber Season. ELGIN, ' Or., June IS. (Special.) The various sawmillmen of Elgin are getting ready for the season's run and many mills have started, although the work has been somewhat hampered by the wet weather.

Many of the mill pro prietors are uneasy regarding the labor question and this will be the only thing that will stand In the way of a success ful run. Leases Chehalls Hotel. CHEHALIS. Wash., June 16. (Special.) H. C. Griffith, of Tacoma. has leased the St. Helens Hotel in this city. Mr. and Mrs. W. F. West, owners of the hotel, will take an extended vacation from their work.

OREGON FOR BENEFIT OF TOURISTS NEW STAGE LINES TO CRATER LAKE NATIONAL PARK. Owing to Added Conveniences, Sum mer's Travel to Famous Re sort Will Be Large. KLAMATH FALLS, Or., June 1. Speclal.) With two regular lines of stages connecting with railroad points and a third connection soon to be es tablished,' Klamath Falls can offer to Intending visitors a choice of scenic routes and good accommodations on either. As competition is the life of trade in commerce, it' Insures comfort and conveniences in travel when rival stage companies contest for the patron age of the traveler. Captain J. M. Mclntyre, manager of the Oregon & California Transporation Co , operating in conjunction with the Klamath Lake Railroad, has leased waterfront property for a landing at Klamath Falls, the lease being for a period of three years, together with buildings that permit of a storage of a large quantity of merchandise and it is understood that a speedy launch will be put in service to connect with stages of the company. With Will G. Steel at its head, a new company, has been formed which em braces the Klamath Lake Navigation Company, , and will operate boats on Upper Klamath Lake, Lake Ewauna and the Klamath River and stage lines connecting so that passengers may leave the Southern Pacific at Ager, make stops at Klamath Hot Springs and Klamath Falls if desired, or be taken through without delay if pre ferred to Crater Lake and return. Mr. Steel and associates are making prep arations for affording hotel accom modations for visitors while in the National Park and giving the best of service en route. The Klamath Falls Ager line is already in operation daily and the service north from Klamath Falls to Crater Lake will soon be in stituted. Another stage line will be estab lished about July 1 to connect with the trains of the Southern Pacific at the end of the new line from Weed, which will be to Orr's Lake by that date. There Is not much being said about this line ' but it will probably be equipped with automobiles and the trip may be made in rapid time during the Summer season. Negotiations looking to securing the necessary ma chines are under way at Oakland. As the road to Crater Lake will be open to tourist travel tor the remainder of the year, the Initial trip having been made by a party of Callfornlans by automobile, the number of visitors will rrobably be very large. HACADAM ROAD AGITATION Farmers Near Silverton Want Better Highways Matle. SILVERTON. Or., June 16. (Special.) A meeting of the farmers adjacent to the proposed macadam road east of this city was held in the opera house Friday afternoon, and it Is estimated that fully 200 people were present. County Judge John H. Scott, of Salem, presided over the meeting and made a brief talk on the Importance of this road. Some time ago a petition was .circulat ed and liberally signed, asking the Coun ty Court to construct the road In ques tion under the provisions of the Tuttel law, and preliminary arrangements were made. A few weeks ago some of the farmers living In the vicinity of Mount Angel, whose property comes in the four mile limit, started a petition of remon strance and this met with considerable favor. When the conditions were more fully explained about 40 of the farmers who had signed the remonstrance peti tioned the County Court to remove their names from that petition and insert them on the petition favoring the good roads movement. The road will deprive MOunt Angel of considerable trade from the Scott's Mill country and for this reason people of that part of the county are working hard against it. Judge Scott said that there is no possibility of failure now DEVELOP MARBLE INDUSTRY r Capitalists Locking Over Deposits in - Colville Fields. COLVILLE, Wash., June 16. (Spe cial.) Samuel Hutchinson, of Yakima County; Ed Hill, D. E. Zent and L. M. Philpot, of Rltzvllle, and L L. Delano, of San Francisco, were here this week, the guests of George J. Helmbach, of Colville. These gentlemen are inter ested in the Jefferson Marble Company, which owns some valuable marble ground on Clugston Creek, 16 miles north of town, upon which has been expended within the past five years over $100,000 in actual development. The deposits of marble under the own ership of the Jefferson Company will aggregate something over 200 acres, and over 15 varieties of color have been uncovered. A carload of the product of these quarries, . variegated in canary and white colors, was shipped to Buffalo, New York, four years ago, and attracted wide atten tion among the marble-workers of the Empire State, and was the means of Inducing some of them to visit the marble deposits of Stevens County to verify, the fact that the State of Wash ington excels In thia class of archi tectural material .... Raymond Will Be a City. RAYMOND, Wash., June 16. (Special.) At the last meeting of the Commercial Club, definite action was taken to in corporate. A census has Just been com pleted, which shows that Raymond now has a population of 1960. The committee on incorporation was instructed to secure the services of an attorney, and It is ex pected that within a very short time the papers will be filed. THE SUNDAY CLOSIMG LAW Mr. Topken Hints That Enforcement Is in Interest of Clique. PORTLAND, June 13- (To the Editor.) The discussion of th Sunday closing law has been carried on by those directly or legally lntererted. But the general public, that great unknown quantity, with decided convictions but the lack of moral courage to express the has been silent. The decision of the District At torney to enforce ' this law, coming so close on the heels of election, leads one to believe that political reasons have largely governed the District Attorney to pursue this course. The question which naturally arises, is this to please or spits a certain clique? It is about time that any asso ciation, which interests Itself !n politics to further some private ends, whether these be called liquor, ministerial or others, should take a back seat. An association which cannot work for the general benefit from an impartial, unbiased point of view, should have no voice in public affairs. The Sunday law originated In the New England states, a, place where the Pilgrims selected to live unmolested In accordance with their customs and belief. Anyone else. choosing these states as his home, In jus tice to them, naturallv had to bow down to the laws and-- regulations they had made, among which was what is known as the "Puritan Sunday." But even here I find the celebrated Puritan preacher, . Williams, In controversy with the authorities In 1641. holding that these had no right to punUft anybody for any infractions of the Sunday law. But the Pilgrims of the West were of a different type- The hardy pioneers did not belong to any exclusive religious sect. Composed of all kinds of nationalities and religious belief, some had their day of rest ind warshin on a. Friday, others on a Sat- urday. and the laws were made to treat all alike, to do all eq.ua! justice. in a period of development of new states, laws watch have no special bearing creep into the statutes, slumber peacefully for years until resurrected and enforced to spite the neigh bor or serve some private purpose. The first condition of a law must be. that the consequence, when applied, must be for the public good. If, on the contrary, the law is vicious, It should be either re-burled or re modeled to suit the times. We have Pronibltlon states, which have beens in line for over half a century, in the borders of which should not be found an lota of alcoholic drinks If the law had been observed or enforced strictly. But what Is perceived? In Kansas, a man sees the physician, complains, receives a recipe, hurries to the drug store, and get's what he wants. Instead of creating self-esteem and truth, the first condition of true American citizenship, it makes of him a liar and hypo crite. In Portland, Me., there are 40 per cent more arrests for drunkenness than In the open city of Milwaukee. A conscien tious Judge there once held that when n number of people were brought before him on this charge, that It was a legal paradox to have such an offense on the statutes In a Prohibition, state. He fined them for wilfully bringing liquor Into the state and storing It internally. Where has the Sunday closing law been a success? Seattle and Tacoma are equal izing and revising it. Los Angeles has al ready remodeled ltv Shall we have the same vicious, disgusting features in Mil' waukle or Vancouver as Seattle has in Georgetown? Where Is the benefit? Does anyone honestly believe that the people who want to drink will not do so on a closed Sunday, provided they want to drink? The liquor will be carried, hidden and consumed in the home. A splendid elevating spectacii for a growing generation. Will It riot be a disgusting hide-and-seek game? Will it not create strife and place a premium on hypocrisy ? The moral wave which has struck this country, in its upheaval shaking in the foundations the Institutions carried on by financial highwaymen, unearthing official depravity and graft. Is weleome for its pu rifying Influence. But a wave which would leave in Its wake hypocrisy and strife, the people had better avoid. Frederick the Great, the practical philosopher, once said : "Anyone In my country can find his way to heaven as it may best suit him." Let us find a wav. f. TOPKEN. WAITERS DESERT SPEHGER STEWARD'S MEN LEAVE STEAM ER ON SHORT NOTICE. Demand for Extra Day's Pay Is Re fused and Cabin Boys Quit. Steamer Sails Snorthanded. Walters and pantrymen walked ashore yesterday morning; from the steamer Charles R. Spencer, shortly be fore she left the dock on her excursion run to the Cascade Locks. The Spen cer had a good-sized crowd aboard, and the steward's department .was badly handicapped during: the day. . The cooks and porter remained at their posts and meals were served as usual. The waltere and pantrymen had made a demand on Captain Spencer for addi tional pay for the Sunday excursion run. The demand of the cabin boys was denied and they walked ashore a few minutes before sailing- time. Being: Sunday and with an excursion party aboard, it was impossible for. the own er to secure new men, and the boat left without a crew in the cabin. In spite of the dismal outlook for a holiday on the river, a number of per sons boarded the various steamers which left in the morning. There was a free excursion on the steamer Joseph Kellog-g to the Cowllts River, and the steamer Beaver took a private party down the Columbia. The steamer Tele graph, on her regular Astoria excur sion, had about 160. people. Numerous private parties went out launching:, and a number of small boats were on the river all day. PRAISES WORK FOR SAILORS Veteran Mariner's Good Word for Seaman's Friend Society.' PORTLAND, June 16 (To the Editor.) Will you allow me a little space in your paper to show the' appreciation of the seamen who have lately visited this port for the work done by the Seamen's Friend Society, at the corner of Third and Flanders streets, for the benefit and entertainment of all seamen irrespective of nationality or creed? Mr. Roper, the chaplain and Mrs. Roper have exerted themselves with indefatig able energy to please all seamen and to give them a hearty welcome and also to make . the institution in this port a success. Owing to their efforts and the kindness of the many friends who assist them from time to time and the hearty greetings one and all continually receive amongst them, we the seamen who are now located in this city of Portland and those who have lately left us for other ports do earnestly desire that our appre ciation of their endeavors may be fully known and understood. It is thought by nine-tenths of the people on land that a sailor cannot thoroughly enjoy himself until he gets amongst the saloons and cafes, but this Is an erroneous opinion 6TEAMEB ENTELLIGENCB.

" This institution, which is a branch of that old established society In New York, is praised continually by all the sailors who attend it, and Indeed it deserves praise and assistance all around. I am quite confident that all the seamen who have been in Portland lately and who have visited this institute have been highly delighted with it and have gone away with better feelings towards the landspeople than they usually have leaving port- The weekly concerts that are held here are made most attractive not only for the seamen of every nationality, but also for the residents of this city who have been attending them.
