BOHEMIA NUGGET. HOWARD & SUPPLE -, Editor anil Pubtlihcri. F.nUrwl itt the potfottV M C"ttK drove, Oregon Second CLn mll mtl'.tr. Knbaorlptloit prlrt. 1.50, In b.Ithuc. Aiivortlalng rulci mifi known upon KppllrntloB, Friday, August 2, 1901. Last week a fake - story was set afloat of a terrible crime committed in Bohemia and hinged on the find ing of an incomplete and charred bear's paw, which the innocents really thought was a human hand, and that too of the feminine gender. Siucc then other bear paws have been brought to town and the de lusion is now thoroughly dispelled. The Eugene Register was appraised of the gruesome find and printed the story, which was perfectly proper and in the line of news, but it went out of its province I to cast an uncalled Tor slur upon the honest miners of Bohemia, to which the Nugget took exception thereby causing the ire of the Register man to mount high, and in his rage he makes a personal at tack upon the "new importation from Portland on the Nugget," and says some very elegant and really nice things about us, for which we are truly thankful. Our time is fully occupied with affairs of duty and we have no spare moments to enter into quarrils with our neigh bors. As regards the looting of cabins in Bohemia, and only one minor act of that kind has been brought out, which was ascribed to non-residents who passed through the district, the miners who dwell there would never be guilty of so contemptable an act, and would make it decidedly interesting for any person caught tampering with the cabin or effects of an absent resident. ' If the Register man ever tomes to Cottage Grove the "new importation" will greet him kindly and introduce him to several bear paws. nox. it. a. unoTir ran aornitxoji. In a letter from Boise to the Oregonian on July 24, the writer in speaking of the ore display made for inspection by the members of the International Mining Congress says: "Oregon came to the front today with a delayed mining ex hibit which attracted a great deal of attention. The exhibit from the Bohemia district, consisting of gold, copper and silver ore, was surrounded all day by mining ex perts. The Eastern Oregon ex hibit was very attractive on ac count of the rare specimensshown." This should bring much encourag ment to the miners of Bohemia, because the direct interest of prac tical mining men will be the chan nel through which the best results will follow. Such men are ever in touch with capital and on the alert to find safe and lasting investment opportunities. The interest mani fested in the ore exhibit from Bo hemia will surely be of much bene , fit to that camp in the future. Junction Thntt, Rep. While the Times was the first paper in the state to mention Hon. R. A. Booth for governor, it has been talked up all over the state and although some of the leading papers are non-committal, the cause is gain ing ground and his name will soon be urged from other sections not yet in evidence. There are few members of the last state senate that won and retained as many friends ns Hon. K. A. Booth. He took his stand on the great senatorial question and while he was firm as adamant in his convictions, he was gentlemanly and accorded to all others the same right and privilcdgcs enjoyed by himself. He did not question his standing as an honest man and sin cere legislator by talking to the galleries on every little measure that promised political distinction, but 011 tne oiner nana auciiiicu sinewy to the needs of the great senatorial district he represented, lo be gov ernor, especially so when the posi tion is unsought, is to be placet! in the highest position within the gift of the people of a great state, and knowing Mr. Booth as we do we feel sure that if he is called to this great position of trust as well as honor, he will permit the use of his name. Mr. Booth is from this district and holds the highest estimation of all the citizens of this section. It is indeed pleasant to read the words of praise from distant sections of the state conferred upon one who com mands so much honor at home. During the last legislature Mr. Booth made a lasting record for him self by his manly and curtcous treat ment of everybody and everything he had to deal with. In the senate chamber he was ever ready to attack that which was harmful and defend that which he conceived best for the well being of the stale. If the friends of Hon. R. A. Booth can induce mm to stand lor the high office of governor of Oregon there is not a particle of doubt but what he will occupy the guberna torial chair. Tim imr.nxA aoxsom- DATED, Front n private letter front the secretary of the Helena Consoli dated Mining and Milling Com pany the following information is extracted: W e besr to advise that the con solidation of Helmut and Helena No. 2 is now fully completed and that new stock will be issued in lieu of the old on the basis. of share for share for Helena and 400 shares for 1000 shares lor Helena Wo. 2 or 40 per cent. The first dividend of one-half a cent per share 011 the new stock has been declared and wo hand you dividend check to cover the mi tu ber of shares held by you. The Helena Consolidated Com pany has u capitalization of $1,500, 000 divided into 1,500,000 shares of $1.00 par value, fully paid and non-assessable, with a treasury re serve of 300,000 shares and no debts. Under the consolidation plan the mines can be worked much more economically and return larger profits to our stockholders; with in creased territory and a large treas ury reserve, the company is in much better shape to enhance the value of its shares. ; It is announced that Dr. Koch, the noted German scientist, has discovered that the disease germs found in beef cattle and milk, can not be transmitted to the human system. Upon this announcement the medical and scientific world is set agog the great specialist being contradicted 011 every hand. Well it isn't the first time doctors and scientists have disagreed; and in the meantime the good people will goon devouring beef and washing It down with 'milk, just the same giving Dr Koch the benefit of the doubt. Last Monday morning there ar rived at the Imperial hotel eigbtjt . : . ...... r . . . . . . . I geniiemen irom Aiassacnuseiis 10 visit and investigate the Bohemia district. They left here in two of Chrisman & Bang's coaches for the hills under the leadership and guid cnceofG. W.Lloyd. The party consisted of M. V. Little of Boston, E. S. Ncwball of Lynn, W. J. Dar ling and E. H. Thomas of Fall River, Ed Manter of Plymouth, H. A. Alvord and Henry C. Alvord of South Waymouth and E. S. Harris of Boston. These gentlemen came across the continent at the sugges tion of and to inspect the property managed by Mr. Lloyd, as well as to view the district in general with reference to future investment. They will remain in the district several days and will be afforded an opportunity to thoroughly inspect many of the fine properties of Bo hemia. They represent capital which is much needed in Bohemia and the miners will show them where investment can be made with great advantage to both capital and miner. The roads are in good con dition, the weather is fine and the Massachusetts men will see and learn much about one of the largest and richest mineral districts that ever laid out of doors. The Second Southern Oregon District Agricultural Society has made complete and elaborate preparatrons for the holding of the Second Southern Oregon Fair, near Marshfield, commencing August 27 and continuing for five days. This . fair will be representative of the great resources of that section in agriculture and live stock and will be patronized by all who dwell in tittbat locality and many from all over , thetate. ' A Chicago dispatch says that Chas. Cecil Fitzmorris, the 17-year' old Chicago school-boy who was one of three lads sent out by W. R. Hearst, the newspaper proprietor, in an attempt to break the record for the trip around the world, ar rived there at 6:55 a. in., July 20, on time, wliich breaks previous records made by George Francis Train and Nellie Bly. The young man made the trip of 20545 miles in exactly 60 days, 13 hours, 29 min utes, 42 4-5 seconds, winning easily from his competitors sent out from New York and San Francisco. The time given includes delays and stops equal to about six days. A man back in the Windy City, Chicago, has written a book which he is pleased to call "Who Lies?" It is now in order for some one to write a book and call it "Who Doesn't Lie" in Chicago. Through a legal technicality the bond issue of Cottage Grove, which was authorized by the recent elec tion, becomes void, and it will be necessary to go over the entire ground in order to fully and com pletely legalize the contemplated issue of bonds. The bonds, when issued, will be immediately taken up at 5 per cent. At the next meeting of the council steps will be taken to call an immediate election and straighten out the legal kinks, thus putting the bond issue in valid torm on the market.
