made no promises as to when addi
tional ' construction of his road might
be started, he declared his conviction
that the road would mean much for
Grants Pass and Josephine county.
Father Moore and A. 8. Coutout of
the Observer, were other speakers.
Credit for the success of today's
events is due largely to Wilford Al
len, president of the Grants Pass
Commercial club, and a Commercial
club committee as follows:
In charge of arrangements: Mar
shall Hooper, cashier of the Grants
Pass Banking company; H. I Gllkey,
cashier of the First National bank;
Sam Baker, of Josephine County
bank; R. B, Miller, Asa Holcomb, mer
chant, and Dr. W. W. Walker.
The ladles' auxiliary to the Com
mercial club had a part in the pro
ceedings, too, being responsible for
attractive street decoration. G. W.

and eclat. Each box contained also a
sample of copper ore. Each man
brought -back to Grants Pass with him
a coating of dust which needed but
a few-drops of water to make It grow
$10 bills, for there had been ocular
demonstration en route that Irriga
tion had made It grow four craps of
alfalfa and that amounts to about the
same thing.
Arriving In the city, the party was
taken to the residence of R. B. Miller,
vice president of California and Ore
gon Coast Railway company, a spaci
ous building which It is announced is
to be in reality clubhouse and-home
for the railroad officials and em
ployes. '
There on the electric light festooned
lawn, the Moose band played, felicita
tions were exchanged during refresh
ments and general good fellowship pre
vailed. Grants Pass Is decorated extensively
in honor of its guests. Pyramids of
fruits, vegetables, cereals and minerals
grace the street intersections. To
night there are boxing bouts to mark
the end of a perfect day.
R. B. Miller presided at the open
air session.
Mr. Miller welcomed the guests of
the day, told in brief of what Grants
Pass is doing and expects to do, and
thanked the Portland Chamber of Com
merce for Its attendance and Interest
Emery Olmstead of Portland cham

for the courtesies extended and the
entertainment afforded.

-Grants Pass. Or., Sept. 21. If the
' Grants Paps Commercial club and Its
' officials, the California and 0rcn
- Coast RaUroad company, the Utah
Idaho Sugar company, the Josephine
County Fair association and Grants
-PSM by amd large left anything un
' done In tlje way of welcome and en
tertainment of the Portland Chamber
of Commerce txcurslonists here
' these excjrslonists will never know it.
They hd all they could crowd Into
v full day and evening anyway. From
the time they were greeted at the sta-
tlon at S:45 this morning until late
this evening. they were on the go, and
i most of them are staying over tonight
for another day of it tomorrow,
tart With Auto Bids,
ttn.. a-rienl t h visitor, after ren-
era! salutations and greetings, boarded
"autoa furnished by Commercial ciua
members and cltlxens. and were taken
around Tokay Heights and other resi
dence districts. Then they were taken
to the Josephine county fair, where
they spent an hour and could have
spent several hours in viewing and
praising the diversified exhibits, from
sugar beets and native gold- dust, from
peaches and utalllons to' priie winning
pies and school children's handicraft.
Diversification is the outstanding
feature of the exhibits, Josephine
' county hajvlng gone a long way at this
fair toward clinching its claims to the
production of more varied products
thn anvf other county In the United
' , Btatfs. J-'rom t lie fatr the excursion
' ' ists boarded California and Oregon
Coast Hallway company observation
cars for' the nw $7i.000 Utali-Irtaho
sugar fartory, within about one month
. of completion.
City Started Ballroad.
The tllty- of Grants F'as be It re
membered, built the first 10 miles of
the California & Oregon Coast railroad.
' Then It was turned over to Twohy
Brothers as a bonus for the comple
tion of the road to the Waldo Mines
.' country and eventually to the coast,
With Crescent City as a terminus.
The Twohys have completed six
miles oif the road, to Waters Creek.
From Waters Creek last month the
road habled 35 cars of ore and 30 cars
' of lumber and wood and. Indications
are that It will keep It up. Grants
' Pass boosters, and every one here
boosts. . feel that for a 16 mile "Jerk
'' water" this Is some record.
Sugar Plant Employs 350.
Manager Alex Nlbley of the Utah
' Idaho company piloted the guests
through the new plant, where 250 men
r v are employed and where macnlnery of
the latest type is being swung Into
' place In what Is declared will be one
, of the tnost modern plants of its kind
In the country. It Is expected that 200
men will be employed at the plant to
begin wlt.i when the first of the beet
crop isse'nt through.
The time at the sugar factory was
limited but the party was enabled to
get a good general Idea of what the
plant la and what it's going to do
' for Grants Pass In an Industrial way.
- Mining Camp Booming.
Boarding the train again, the vls-
Itors continued on their way up the
" grade through forest and field to
''Waters Creek, the present terminus
of the f-oad.
Waters Creek right now has the ear-
marks of a thriving lumber camp, a
- ' mining carhp on the boom and a new
'railroad town all In one. Carloads
. . i of ore . from the "Queen of Bronze"
and other mines were thrre valting to
V b 'hauled to Grants Pans and on to
tha smelters In Utah and Jdaho, and
." ' the facit Is the more Interesting be
' : cause this ore had been hauled from
lha mines, 20 and 25 miles down can
yon roads. The same was true of
,''; lumber awaiting shipment and logs.
-and It's' to tap these districts of great!
resource ana to give mem more
ready aind more economical route to
; tha open market that the railroad Is
" to be continued.
Trip Zs Exhilarating.
' Surveys for the extension have al
ready been made. f
; At Winters Creek the Portland dele
gatlon asgaln climbed Into the automo
biles awl started on what proved to
h9 an jexhlleratlng four hour trip
'through' the Illinois valley district,
a section of fine farms, timber and
county school houBes, adjacent to rich
i placer raining fields, and on the way
.to the famed marble caves, copper
r mines and Sucker Creek and Waldo
'hills districts.
One J. T. Logan last year made a
clean-up of $35,000 on his placer op
erations, after he had already sent
130,000 worth of gold bricks to Undo
Sam's mints.

Holland. Wildervllle and other mining
, communities which boomed in a',
earlier generation when gold dust was
tha medium of exchange and where

golden days are still looking forward
to the years when the railroad and lr-
' rlgatlon will bring them good times
v again from mine and farm.
The loop was completed along a
hilly county road at from 15 to 36
miles an hour despite the rules and
cuts furrowed by lumbering ore and
lumber wagons, and in turn bedded
' down by tractors and caterpillars.
