received by Geo. II. Dorman, local

sation with the editor of the Grants
Pass Dally Courier, in which he ad
vises you that there are rumors
around the city that the Gas Com

tlons after July 1st, and we are at
a loss as to how such an unfounded
rumor could be circulated, as we
have not authorized anyone to circu
late such a rumor.
"It ts our Intention to continue
operations in Grants Pass as long as
the citizens of Grants Pass will con
tinue to use gaa and while we feave
never made any money by operating
the plant at Grants Pass, still we are
at all times willing to supply them
service as long as they continue to
patronize us and cooperate with us,
"We thank you for calling this
matter to our attention and would
ask that you kindly place this before
the public whenever you have cea
sion to do so."
