service, was in the city Monday and
Tuesday on business connected with
the new highway up Mount Ashland.
He reports that just as soon as ne
gotiations could be concluded with
Nym Long regarding right of way
through Long's premises, work
would begin on the highway. Forest
officials are now negotiating with
Long concerning these concessions.
From what Mr. Herring said, the
canyon road will be utilized as far
as possible in fact, no other route
had been contemplated by govern
ment officials, though several had
been suggested, notably a different
route on each side of the creek.
In using the canyon road as far as
available, the engineer stated that
this seemed to be the route the most
in favor owing to the scenic beauties
along the way, and, furthermore, the
road as already laid is practically
completed to the mountain's base,
subject, of course, to improvements.

John W. Campbell of Roseburg,
candidate for congress from the first
district on the progressive ticket,
was in Ashland Wednesday and
Thursday and called on the business
men and citizens generally.
Mr. Campbell is contesting for the
seat now held by W. C. Hawley
Mr. Hawley is much admired here
as a man and citizen, but as con
gressman many think he has failed
to deliver the goods. Mr. Campbell
came to Oregon from Iowa, where he
was a friend and neighbor of Sena
tor Cummins and knew well Senator
Dolliver. He has known Mr. La Fol
lette intimately for twenty-five years
and has the hearty endorsement of
Mr. La Follette. He is thoroughly
a progressive and believes that a
congressman should support pro
gressive measures whenever intro
duced in congress, no matter wheth
er the legislation is proposed by his
party or by any other party."
Mr. Campbell will again visit
southern Oregon on the occasion of
oovernor Johnson's itinerary here
just before the election.
The writer had the pleasure of in
troducing Mr. Campbell to our citi
zens and took occasion to feel out
the local sentiment in relation to the
candidacy of Jonathan Bourne. To
our great surprise, nearly every per
son with whom we talked on the sub
ject was in favor of Mr. Bourne be
coming an independent candidate for
the senate. -
