Saylor and Frank Caviness, will be held
on a witness .warrant. Wells and his
partners were rounded up by the local

learning that the suspended Oregon Trust

JACKSONVILLE WISHES UP
' I : .
BOOSTING CLTJB FORMED IN
SOUTHERN OREGON CITY.
Cement Walks, New Hotel and Bet
ter Railroad. Service Is Slo
gan of Organization.
JACKSONVILLE, Or., Feb. 27. (Spe
cial.) The big auditorium of the Jack
eon County Courthouse was last night
filled to overflowing' and standing- room
was at a premium. The occasion was the
organization of the Jacksonville Commer
cial Club and the awakening- of the
town. The good ladies of the town were
the instigators of the movement and de
serve all of the credit for the big demon
stration. All day carriages filled with
women went to every home in Jackson
ville and vicinity, distributing notices of
the meeting and appealing to everyone to
come out and help organize a new town
out of an old one.
Over five hundred of Jacksonville's citi
zens attended the meeting and the utmost
enthusiasm prevailed. George L. Davis
called the meeting to order and speeches
were made by prominent citizens asking
the people to get together and work for
the good of the town.
The club iwas then organized in a business-like
shape, a constitution and by
laws adopted and the following- officers
elected: President, T. J. Kenney; vice
president, George La. Davis; secretary, C.
L. Reames; treasurer. Jay C. Sexton.
Practically every man and woman in town
Joined the club and today nothing is heard
on the streets but good booster talk.
Jacksonville certainly waked up. and
from present Indications Is going to stay
awake. The Improvements promised by
the new organization Include the building
of cement sidewalks in front of every
'business house in town, the betterment of
railroad service between Medford and
Jacksonville, the acquirement of a city
park and the building of a modern hotel.
A fund of &000 is being raised by popu
lar subscription to advertise the town.
DON'T LIKE STATEMENT NO. 1
Josephine Republican - Legislative
Candidates Won't Sign It.
GRANTS PASS. Or.. Feb. 27. (Special.)
With one exception, the Senatorial and
Representative candidates of Josephine
County are not pledging themsolves to
support Statement No. 1. They have
donned a straight party jacket. George
W. Colvig, who heads the race for Sena
tor, places himself in alignment with his
party In every instance. O. S. Goodnow,
his running mate, looks upon Statement
No. 1 as the primary ingredient of his
political preferment and he goes on rec
ord with his petition so signed.
Getting into the represenetative body,
the two candidates. Dr. J. C. Smith, the
present city Mayor, and George H. Dur
ham, attorney for the Southern Pacific
Company, have neither bound themselves
to Statement No. 1.
Among the 12 other candidates of the
Republican party in this county none has
any particular expression to make in
regard to Statement No. 1. Rummaging
through the Democratic petitions that are
filed, there is sufficient evidence to war
rant the belief that they may have a
warm feeling for Statement No. 1. It
appears, from , what can be observed,
that nearly all the oandidates or politi
cal leaders In the field are beginning to
weary of flirting with polygamous politics.
