S'xth and C treet the public koow their wants. for those having houses for rent or Action on Highway Urged in Resolution At the Commercial Club meeting last Monday night with a few words to the effect that no censure of the city council or county court was in tended J. W. McCoy introduced the following resolution: "Whereas, In the consideration of a route for the paved highway through Jackson county the condi tions at Ashland seem to be unlike those of any other city or town, ow ing to the established highway hav ing a grade crossing near the city limits at either extreme, and there being a different route which, if ac cepted, would eliminate the grade crossing, and "Whereas, The county authorities have signified their intention of elim inating the grade crossings, as far as practicable, from the proposed highway, and Whereas, Through differences In opinion as to the route that should be used in entering the city at either extreme there has arisen a condition of 'watchful waiting' for the settle ment of the details of the same both on the part of the city and county authorities, and "Whereas, In order that work ad jacent to Ashland be taken up at the proper time, it seems necessary that some definite action be taken at an early date, and "Whereas, This body has entire confidence in the ability and judg ment of the common council of the city of Ashland to handle this matter to the best interest of the majority of the citizens of this vicinity and be lieves said council to be the only body with lawful power to act in such set tlement, "Now therefore be it resolved, That it is the sense of the Commer cial Club of the city of Ashland that the necessary steps for the settle ment of the route through Ashland should be taken at once by the city council, either through the regular committee or through a special com mittee appointed for that purpose, and the matter be not allowed to rest until a satisfactory settlement is reached. "Be it further resolved. That this resolution is not to be construed as recommending any particular route, but leaves it to the judgment of the council to select a new route or ad here to the old one as they believe the best interest of the city demands, to confer with the county court, com promise, and do all things necessary to a fair and equitable adjustment of all questions involved, including the spending of such 6ums as may be necessary in order that the highway be completed through Ashland this season. "Be it further resolved, That a copy of this resolution be presented to the council at it3 meeting on Tues day evening. June second." Mayor Johnson stated that the council had not been idle but that they were practically stalled for a solution of the problem so far as it applies to an outlet on the north of town and that they would welcome suggestions. He referred to a letter received from the Southern Pacific Company in reply to an inquiry as to their views of the matter, in which they make serious objection to the proposed plan of the highway en gineer on the ground that the under track crossing hits their line at an angle which requires too long a cut and too much bridging. They would not object to having their line hit at right angles and suggest that this could be done just above the present crossing etc. Mayor Johnson ex pressed the view that considerable litigation both with the railroad company and Mr. Billings might re suit from endorsement by the coun cil of the proposed route. E. E. Phipps argued in favor of a survey 'on the upper side of the railroad from the Billings curve to the vicinity of Frederick thus elim inating all grade and all controversy He agreed it would require consid erable cutting and filling. F. G. Mc- Williams stated that C. W. Root of Ashland had worked out a feasible solution of the problem through his years of experience in this class of work and that he had a date set for presenting his idens to the county court. Mr. McCoy's resolution was adopted. tumamnnffittttfflttm A Good Advertiser Can Sell Good Properly Any Time, Anywhere He must keep his ad at work, it must be THERE when the possible buyer looks and he might not look more than one lay out of ten.

If we stop and think a little we can conceive some Idea of the wondrous aid it has been to the social development and ideas of the community. At the time when Rev. Smith es tablished the Chautauqua it was very rare that any of the speakers and entertainers came through this part of the country, for at that time this section of the west was considered by eastern people to be nothing s.hort of a wilderness. People had been accustomed to hearing nothing but their own ideas, for we were as an isolated island. When the Chautau qua was introduced people here heard for the first time accomplished musi cians, artists and lecturers. Their minds had been living in a narrow channel, hardly knowing what the world was doing. Chautauqua imme diately set to work to broaden the mind and introduce new ideas. Speakers came here of whom before they had only gained vague and shapeless Ideas. Now they could see and learn. When Chautauqua first started, and while Ashland was the metropolis of the valley, people came from all over southern Oregon to listen to those men and women of whom they had heard so much. They would come in farm wagons, prairie schoon ers, and establish camp somewhere near town, usually up the canyon. Think what it has meant to the city of Ashland to have all these broadening Influences for so many years. Let's keep it going by sup porting it well. EAGLE POINT NOTES.
