The letters recently published in
Bohemia Nugget relative to the
organisation of a company with the
view of constructing and operattng
a smelter in Bohemia District, have
treated considerable comment in
mining circles in this vicinity and
the people are gradually awakening
to the realization that it is a neces
sity that the people here and those
interested in the district cannot well
overlook longer. In fact it has
been the consensus of opinion that
it is the one thine needed for a
number of years, but owing to tho
Jack of capital the project has met
With few supporters. Now it is
proposed that a stock company be
formed, each citizen and miner who
has faith in the district subscribing
for as many shares as he can afford.
It is thought that in this manner
the necessary funds can be pro
vided. An encouraging feature at
this stage of the proposition is that
there is ono business man in this
city who has already placed him
self on record that he is ready to
oign for 1000 shares at $1 per share.
This is a good starter, and at that
clip it will not be a difficult matter
to organize a company that will
conduct' a smelter that will make
every good mining property in the
district a dividend payer.
No little comment has gone the
rounds with reference to the prop
erty assessment plan relative to the
present street improvement. Natur
ally the property owners wbo, in
this instance, are being assessed to
defray the expense incurred, ob
ject to the assessment plan by
which none but those wbo own
property are directly benefited by
the work laid out, claiming that
it should be by general city tax
On the other hand those who do
not own property on the street
fronts taking on the improvement,
say that they ought not' to be
made to pay for the improvementB
directly Wnefiting property not
possessed by them. It certainly
does work a hardship on a man
who is able to own above all in
debtedness 80 or 100 feet of street
front to go down in his pocket and
pay $75 or $100 out in a lump for
the improvement of the street; but
no one can deny tliat once im
proved that the property is not ma
terially increased in value. How
ever, in creating a street improve
ment that increases the value of a
property, it goes without saying
that in a corresponding degree it
increases the value of other prop
erty within the corporate limits of
the city, just the same as the plant
jng ot a surub or nower improves
and adds luster to the general ap
pearauce ot the home grounds.
11ETALIA TIOX.
B. F. Harvey who was on trial
this week in the Douglas County
Circuit Court charged .with the
crime of rape on the person of
Winnie Thorn, of Latham, was ac
quitted, the jury bringing in a ver
dict of not guilty. The case was a
hold over from the last terra of
court and has been one of the
hardest fought during the adminis
tration of Prosecuting Attorney
Brown who assisted by his very
able deputy Attorney L,. T. Harris,
ot Eugene, has worked day and
flight on the case. If the prelimi
nary evidence was of any weight in
final trial of the man it is difficult
to see" tiow a jury could find him
"not guilty," especially when it
is remembered that bis recognized
accomplice in the crime went to
trial for the same offense oh the per
son of (fie" same girl and was found
guilty, and sentenced (o serve cut a
terra in the penitentiary. If Harvey
Js to go free it is about time to
rn the rest of 'em out,
The following is from the Rose
burg Plaindealer and is self explanatory:
Last week's issue of the Cottage
Grove Leader contained an cil
torial which was a disgrace to Ore
vrou newsnanerdom. It was one of
the rankest, most scurrilous and
libelous articles that has yet come
to our notice and a man who would
write and publish such a disreput
able effusion is dangerous to the
peace and advancement of any com
nninity, and a newspaper in the
hands of such a man is a public
menace. The article to which we
refer was a vicious and libelous at
tack upon the officials of the Rose
burg land office and Hon. R. A.
Booth, joint senator of Josephine,
Douglas and Lane counties, and
was prompted by an insane effort at
retaliation for an imaginary wrong,
the only grievance being that the
Roseburg land officials persisted in
exercising their official rights and
were abiding strictly by the time
honored custom of the office in
placing its business with newspa
pers representing and advocating
administration principles, a rule
which was closely observed and
most rigorously enforced by the
democratic officials of this land
office, whom the present officials
succeeded. Just what connection
Hon. R, A Booth, of Lane county,
is supposed , to nave with tins
matter by the freak of the Leader
is not clear, other than like a mad
dog, he, in his frenzy, is snapping
and bitting at everything coming
within reach. The inspired edi
torial to which we refer begins like
this: "Of all the little contemp
tible, hide-bound apes of humanity
yet discovered, the Roseburg land
office affords two of the most re
markable deformities misguided
nature has ever produced." And
this libelous reference to Senator
Booth in which he is charged of
influencing the action of the laud
office officials thusly. They "act
ually fight legitimate demands for
fair treatment of patrons whose
wishes and interests happen to con
flict with the order or wishes of a
certain goody-goody Sunday school
superintendent state senator and
brother who owes his election
mainly to the amount of whisky he
was able to dispense to purchasable
voters and to bulldozing laborers
who were not his willing tools.
But when the big dog growls the
little pup barks, jumps sideways
and makes a fool of himself gen
erally." The article then con
cludes thus eloquently: "And we
believe that contemptible cowardice
and lack of opportunity alone keeps
such pudden-headed puppets from
occupying a cell in the state cooler."
It was such reason, sentiment and
spirit that prompted the Haymarket
riot, the stabbing of Austria's
queen, and later the assassination
of Italy's king. But luckily for
the good citizens of Cottage Grove
the circulating sphere of this black
mailing, copperhead sheet is com
paratively small, still, it remains a
direct slam at the intelligence and
enterprise of that progressive and
prosperous community, and we
sympathize with those public
spirited citizens in that they must
patiently submit to the publication
of such a vile sheet in their thriv
ing city. However, since the
axiom is general among the people
of our sister county that "when you
read it in the Leader it' is a sign it
is not so," such rot only adds to
the odium now overshadowing that
paper.
The people of this section of
Oregon can now settle on the fact
that winter is upon them in earnest,
and the next two months will be a
delightful mixture of rain and mud
with an occasional sunshine sandwich.
Every stranger, every business
man aud every traveling man who.
steps off the cars nowadays imme
diately remarks upon the improved
condition of Main street. It is a
splendid advertisement for the
town and one that will assist in
making a city of us yet

The fifty-seventh congress will
go on record as having in its
charmed circle three members un
swering to the name of Moody.
Congressman Moody of Massa
chusetts, Congressman Moody of
Oregon, aud Congressman Moody
of North Carolina. It is not known
just what mood that august body
will be in on the day of convening,
but it is safe to say that it will be a
very Moody congress.
The street improvements may be
expensive and occasion considerable
adverse comment, but if the city
authorities should suddenly con
clude to remove the crushed rock
already spread there would be a
wail of wrath go up about four feet
longer than eternity.
