SHOULD FEEL ENCOURAGED Certainiy if there ever was a time for the people of Cottage Grove and the owners of mining properties in Bohemia to feel encouraged with the outlook it is the present. During the winter tnc Oregon Securities, the Crystal Consolidated, the Vesuvius, the Riverside, the Oregou-Colotado and several others have by a system of development by tunnels, proven that large ore bodies are to be fonnd at great depth. Iu fact the deeper the work ings the better and larger the ore bodies. Transportation and proper treat incut facilities are still a hiudrauce, but with time in a camp worthy of them, they are always sure to fel low. With several mills ready to begin operations as soon as the weather conditions will permit the coming season should be one of great bene fit to Bohemia and Cottage Grove, IMMUNITY FOR THE BIG THIEVES.

Among those an olectrio lamp had been introduced, and its strong light beat on tho fish with an effect that must haro been excruciating. Fish aro extremely sonsativo to light, not only iu their eyes, but somo of thorn over the wholo sur face of their bodies, as is shown bv tho faculty possessed by trout of al tering their color according to that of tho ground over wincn tuoy swim.

To tho Common Council of the City of Cottnjro Drove: (IlINTl.KMRN! Ordinance No. tis. entitled "An Or dinance- entitled nil ordinance for regulating, taxing nnd licensing sa loons, and all persons dealing, rend lug or disposing of nplrUuous. vinous, malt or fermented liquors In CottnK Urovo, Lane County, Oregon, nml presented to me for my approval on the list day of Kebrunry, A. 1). , Is hereby vetoed. I niler the Charter of the Ulty of I'ottniro drove. It becomes my duty to assign my reasons for such action, wincn art an ioiiows: l'lltNT. There aiv already upon the statute uoOKs 01 tneuity, ordinances cover Inc a majority of the subjects em braced In this, ordinance, which In mv Imlcvuicnt are Hiitllclent to prop erly control the saloon business, and these ordinances being familiar to all, It would at this time Ik unwise to ali tor them or substitute therefore other ordinances, that would occasion con fusion and probably unintentional In fractions of tho name. Skconh. This ordinance provides Hint the sureties on all saloon license bonds shall ho residents of Lane County. Stato of Oregon, while the old ordin ance provides that such sureties must ho resldcuts of the state of Oregon, and It might occur tnat some persons who would engage In the business hero would not bo well enough nc iiunluted In this county to secure bondsmen who reside here, and yet might have a good standing and be able to secure ample bonds In some other vicinity la tho stste. Tlllltl). Tho time of the arrival of trains In the city at night are such, that to re- iiuire tho saloons to close their doors at mldnlKht, on week days would re sult In an Inconvenience to the trav eling public nnd n reduction to the revenues of the persons enframed in 1 tho saloon business, which wuiild have to be. compensated for Iu seine other manner, and would be 11 11 In centive to adopt other and iktIihs more vicious divlccs to recoup the losses thus sustained. Fot'HTII. This ordinance prolillilts musie or musical Instruments In saloons at nny time of the day or night 1 wheth er plnycil or not) and while I should nave no objections to tne imiiimtice If it simply prohibited music 111 sa loon after lied time, I must confess that 1 can see no good reason why music should not lie played In sa loons nt projtcr times mid under proper circumstances, since wo have music Iu our homes, lodges. churches and all places of amuse ment. The time has nossed when the violin Is considered the instrument of tho devil, nnd In these modern times It is even played 111 many 01 me churches of the country, and so long as it is not Dlaved nt times to 013 turb tne rrposo of tnc citizens 01 me town. 1 can see no renson wny 11 should be suppressed. Firrii. This ordinance provide, ns pointed out to you at the time or tne pas sage or this ordinance, that, nil sa loons must keen their bar room or tippling house In such manner that tne oar. unr room, ami an selling, dealing, vending or disposing of nnd ariuiEing or said minors in sucn sit loons, bar room or tippling house win oe at mi times in iuu view or or mar he seen bv the nubile or dhh- 6er bv on tho street ih front of such saloon, bar room or tippling house wincn win neeessltatemateriai intern ttons. and In mnny cases complete remodeling or the Ironts or buildings occupied by saloons, and entill an enormous expense upon the owners of such buildings, many of whom arc not In the saloon business. In iiddi tlon to this, there seems to me to be moral hiuo to tins Question, winch should bo considered, and that Is that tinder tho law prohibiting mi nors from freuctlng saloons, which Is founded upon grounds of nubile policy and morality, It was no doubt too intention or tho irumcis or tins law that children and persons of tender age should not be hrouaht In contact with the examples mil iniiu ences of the conduct of saloons and tho persons who freuuentsuch Place. but it were ns well to permit them to visit or irmucnt such places as to re remove nil obstructions nnd places these things directly In tho path and view 01 every ciiini mat may nave iccusKm to pass along the street. It Is common knowledge, that when tho least noise or disturbance occurs In a saloon, most persons and es- ficclally tho young will Ikj uttracted tliero nnd will congregate around the doors and windows of such places, nnd It this ordinance takes effect, In my opinion, you will see boys from the ago of three am) upward, and perhaps girls also, standing around gazing Into tlio fronts of tliu s;t)oons or the city and the bud effects will more than couuterbahinci) any pos- Iblo good that may bo obtained from tho passage of 1111 ordinance of this character. I trust that none of vou. gentle men, would through any antuironlsni. animosity or prejudice against the saloon business, Inflict any hardship upon penpio engaged 111 tluit business that you would not liilllct upon any other class of persons: if mi It Is wrotig, sliice we aro hero, acting In a representative leglslutlvo capacity, nnd it should make no difference what our porsonul views may ho on tho tompernnco or other kindred questions, since saloon-keepers aro entitled to tho same considerations ns citizens, as other people engaged in oiuer traues, occupations or pro fessions, and art ctiaraiitcod the same constitutional rights nnd privi leges as other citizens, and should receive tho same consideration at tho hands of this deliberate body. The peoplo of this city havo declured for saloons; they have becugraiited their licenses and paid their fees, and while I Insist that they should bo properly regulated and controlled, I feel that tho ordinances now upon our statute books are adequate am) sulllcleiit for that purpose, and wo should not take the license money of tlieso pcoplH and then stab ihein In tliu unflk. as it weiti, by placing such strlctlous upon them that they can not exist. The saloon imy Into the cxuhcqitc or tiiocitv. annua y the sum 01 so, 00.00. and it too ninny restriction are placed upon tli saloons and their revenue am curtailed ti much, some it not all at them will I compelled 10 retire from bu-lueis an the city will tlten have to race 111 additional dctlclt In Its revenues which will have to lie twonin-d by an additional taxation, the burdens of which already fall heavy upon the . am as 1 said wore in luvor properly icguliitlliK the saloons, tin am not la lav or or pbielng upon l Hem burden widen are unjust. Is now onlv a little over a month 11 til our successors will be Inducted lilt otllce. and If the teuuicrnneo reform ers should prevail, there will crhaps oe no occiii-siou lor a law upon tin subject, or tltev will at bust want more stringent one. and If oil tl oth.'r bund the more IIIhtuI elemcn shall preVHtl, they will not want law with such drastic restrictions as contained fu this ordinance, and either eent It will not ls sutlslac or.v to the Incoming administration and It seems to me It were the mere folly for as at this time to tnmi-er witu 1 no sunicci. I regret that circumstances liav compelled me to eto tills ordinance thellrst during mv liicumbenev In illlce. .vvtl fivl constrained todon under mv oath as an oltlcor. and I the discharge of mv duty as I see It and while my Judgment may be op posed to tiiai 01 a majority or ll inenibers nt the Common Council, I feel that 1 should prove recreant ti my trust It I acted otherwise than tie cording to the dictates of my con science mid Ik-hI judgment.
