Rome Beauties, we would have a full
crop this season." said M. A. McBean.
manager of the Klona Ditch Company,
yesterday. "Several orchardlsts In this
neighborhood have each a few trees of
that variety, and they are all loaded so
heavily with fruit that they, will have
to be thinned considerably. They bloomed
after the frost. The Rome Beauty is a
good salable apple, second only to the
Spltzenberg. and It would seem to be
adapted to this climate."

IN OREGON, NEAR ECGENE.
1M OPEN ROGUE RIVER
PLAN TO MAKE IT NAVIGABLE
FOR BOATS.
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. There is every prospect of a
busy season in the lumbering Industry,
and the output will equal that of any
former year. The estimated cut la placed
at 25,000,000 feet. 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. Mr. Griffith is well
known here. He Is an experienced hotel
man, having run the St. Helens hotel
with Charles R. Hadley about 11 years
ago. He has since engaged In managing
the Hotel Byron at Bellingham.
Move Into New Depot.
RAYMOND, Wash., June 16. (Special.)
The depot force today took possession
of the new depot, which has Just been
completed. ' The new building Is a neat
structure, ISO feet long and two stories
high, and the need of it has been greatly
felt to accommodate the traveling public,
as the o(d depot has been too small for
the traffic of this rapidly-growing plaoe.

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

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

County; Ed Hill, D. E. Zent and L. M.
Philpot, of Rltzvllle, and L L. Delano,
of San Francisco, were here this week,

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

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

Numerous private parties went out

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

that there are no hearts more true or
more sensitive than those of the lads In

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.
We also wish to thank the ladles of
the W. C. T. U. or coming each week
and distributing the fragrant roses for
which this port is famous, v Sailors see

to get them. The institute has been
opened only about seven weeks and car
ried on in the same liberty hall line as
at present it will extend its influence
amongst all seamen visiting these shores.
Mr. Roper in our opinion is the right
man in the right place. He has had
some experience of the sea himself and
knows exactly what a sailor wants. With
all the freedom and courtesy he shows
to everyone, they all remember he is the
captain or head of this institute what he
says must be done Is done readily. In
short, it does one good to pay them a
visit occasionally. FRED R. KIMB.AL.L,
