Entered at the pout ofllce at Grants Pss,
Oregon, aa second-clana mail matter.
THURSDAY. DECEMBER 35, 1902.
The city council at its lnnt meeting
jidWM'd an ordinnnco restricting the
movements of domestic fowls within
oortaiu limits, which includes the
business portion of the, town and the
area immediately surrounding it,
Within tlieso limits the festive, cacklcr
must keep within her own bounds
and will not bo allowed to roam the
streets as heretofore, rr hold her
accustomed Jollifications in the flower
IhkIs of the next ueiuhbnr.
The, Venezuelan complication, (f is
believed, is so shaping itself that the
Monroe doctrine will receive recnjrtii
tion as a part of the law of nations.
Both England and Germany arn cou
idcring it in all their steps in the
matter. There is a feeling quite pre
valent in thin country that the Monroe
doctrine is a bluff, pnro nnd simple,
and would not stand for a moment
considered iutcrniitionally. Wlieu,
however, thn lmwcrs recognize it of
their own accord, It gives the doctrine
a standing that is material.
J. P. (ialeener and W. M. Hair,
nominees for councilman from the
First ward in the recent city election,
the voto resulting in a tic, cast lots
for tho ofllce and Oalecuer won. The
way is not yet clear, however for him
to assume the nfllcu as there are oh
struct ionn still to bo overcome and
tho matter requires action by the
council. No cortiflcuto of election
lias Ix'cn iHHtied to (iulocncr and jniicy
doubt the validity of such a document
under our charter In a caxo like this,
Tho matter is under development
and the end is not yet visible.
President Roosevelt has been asked
to act as arbiter tho in Venezuelan
matter, but has not yet accepted.
He will probably accept if requested
by all tho parties concerned, though
with some reluctance. Ho suggested
that the matter lie referred to the
Hague tribunal, but tho powers re
turned a proposition that ho himself
act as arbiter. This is a high compli
ment to Roosevelt ami may well be
carefully noted by many American
citizens as it shows how our president
is esteemed outside of our owu country
and in What degreo his qualities and
caiahilities aro esteemed by the
world.
lu tho Ashland city election last
week, the pendulum swung the other
way and a defeat for the prohibition
lwrty was registered 1). P. Provost,
the uoniineo of the Labor )mrty who
favored lioeuse was elected mayor.
'llio council stands 3 to a on the
saloon question, while the mayor hits
thu H)wer to cast the deciding voto.
The license for saloons will bo very
high ; fsot) or $MHH), Thu election was
close, Provost receiving a niajorllj of
4T over Holt, the prohibition caudl
date, in a total of 707 votes cast.
Hot It lwrties worked hard for their
respective tickets, but the license
people did tho liveliest work and
scored the points.
Urcgou has five Indian reservations
and for tho most jinrt our Indians
have shown a capacity for civilization
that is Ivcyond tho average. The In
dians of eastern Oregon are Inferior
in intelligence to none In thu United
states and some of them have uiude
remarkably good advancement in civ
ilization, (in the Klamuth reserva
tion, fur instance, many of the Indians
are well to do, with good farms, gocd
slock nnd farming machinery of all
kinds Many of their men are very
intelligent mid caubln. A foolish
Indian is a being rarely or never seen.
All are the possessors of a fair portion
of good solid common sense. On visit
ing the reservation, one is struck hy
the prevalent air of intelligence and
enlightenment, far beyond what is
naturally exacted, exhibited by the
Indians. The Indian polico are a Hue
apiicaring lot of men with a personal
ity that command instant rcsjiect.
Of all our festivals, t'hristmas is
supreme. lu our younger days we
esteemed Christmas for what it
brought us. Our appreciation of the
day uas largely scllUh. Hut with
uiatnrcr years, there comes a better
rnoalization of what Christmas time
means and a better pleasure because
of it. At ChriMimt time wo Hud
the opiKjrtimity of expressing our re
gard to our friends, with KifB ud 1..
cause this Is one of the features of the
day, our thoughts aro concentrated
for the time on how to give others
pleasure anil the unselfish motives
which are freed by Christmas time do
not cease with the festival but keep
working through the year and forever.
The pleasure of receiving gifts is sur
sM'd by that of giving, Uifts lire,
or should be, the expression of love,
and regard. The intrinsic value of
the gift is a mcoiidary matter. It is
the spirit in w hieh the gift is made
that is the Important thing. To give
gifts from a sense of compulsion or
duty is insult to Christmas and to its
dominant spirit of love. The sincere
regard of the giver must go with'
each gift If it would lie a true
Christinas gift and worthy of the
day's high standard.

NEW LEDGE DISCOVERED
In "Owl Hollow" Near Grants Past
Show Fine Prospect.
V
An imHrtuiit mining discovery
was made last week near Grants Pars
and a new ledge brought to light
which from all appearances ought to
develop into one of the best properties
of southern Oregon. Tho find was
mado by Joseph Slmskannd Phil Kob
iiisnn and is located in what is known
as Owl Hollow, situated on the south
side of the river, some six or seven
miles above Grants Puss.
The finders were pros'Cting on the
hill and struck a trace which yielded an
astonishing amount of gold to the au.
Following this trace the lodge was
pulckly found. The extent of the (hid
Is not yet ascertained., and even Its
width is not definitely known. The
ledge is uncovered for a distance of
aliont 2D0 feet by a little creek whose
ourse runs witli tho ledge for that
ilistunco and which has cut the ledge
leopcr than tho rock on each side.
The pros'Cts secured are amazing
ly rich and a pun full of crumbled
ijuartz and ledgo matter yields a string
of gold several inches long. The
ledge is well defined and jHirmaneiit
and its richness and extent make It n
property of great promise. Tho ex
istence of such a ledgo as this has long
been susiieetod by tho miners of the
locality, owing to tho character of
tho gold found in tho placers below

ousin. Mr. Cousin has done more
toward advertising Southern Oregon
as a great hydraulic section than any
other mail in that favored count rv.
He has had a great deal of experience
in that jvarticular branch of the Inisi-
ss for a young man. ami besides
knowing every detail of the cquippiun
and operating of a hydraulic plant, is
U to represent I. is slate among the
vcuhitors of the Kt. The men lie
bringing to On gon are w tiling to
invest in any enterprise possessing
merit, and surely Southern Oregon
otters flattering inducements
Mr. t'ouslu has given lialice crook
more prominence during the tune he
is boon operating there than it ever
id during the boom, and by his own
improvements and that of the companv
e represents, has increased the value
iaims in that district several
hundred per cent.
George Waggoner, chief clerk of the
surveyor general's ottice, accompanies
the jmrty and expects to Income in
rested ill and take an active part in
10 development of Southern Oregon
sources.
This is ail excellent time to show up
the hydraulic mines, as huudicds of

Jackson County Mines.
H. L. White of Ashland, will have
men at work on his quartz projicrtics
near Rock creek, this week.
Marion Lance, who is working the
old I.iincc pincers on the right hand
fork of Foots creek, has everything
in first class condition for the win
ter's rim. He w ill have a crew of
four men to assist him.
Willis Cramer, the flour mill owm r
of Myrtle creek, is working the Tin
Pan mine on Galls creek with three
men. This property has been more
or less "cavoled" but under Mr.
rimer s management will lie sys-
tcinal ically developed. Considcrahl
money has been laken from this prop
erly in '.he iast.
Klisha Hay, who struck u rich
chute on his Walter Gulch pnqierty
near (iold Pill three years ago and
from which he extracted alxmt flfiOP,
has been cleaning out part of the old
work and t i mix ring. He lias run
into what lie conside rs tho original
lend, which had been lost, and from
the prospects he has been getting is
under the impression that hu litis a
true fissure, which he always con
tended was there. He is planning to
put machinery on the property in the
spring but in the meantime will work
along by the present methods.

COUSIN PLACER AT GALICE
Shipshape Equipment and Steady
Returns- Derrick.
Ed Terry, the superintendent ut the
St. Helens & Galice hydraulic placers
ou Galice creek, the Cousin projierty,
was in town Saturday. Mr. Terry
has the mines working like clock work
and has a far better arrangement ftr
profitable working than heretofore.
Tho ground where the present opera
tions are being conducted is a wide
bar, with a gentle slope toward the
creek. Tne ground is not deep and
tho "pay" is very evenly distributed.
Tho geld is coarse, though seldom
found iu large pieces, though quite
haudsomo nuggets aro sometimes
secured. Last season one piece of
the value of (18 was found. The gold
is of the highest quality, very pure
and solid.
One very notable feature of the
mine's equipment is a hydraulic der
rick, a contrivance of Mr. Terry's.
It works after the manner of a donkey
engine, but runs by water xjwer,
famished by a small motor. A host
leading from the main pipe near tin
giant carries the power to tho motor.
This motor swings ou a king bolt,
while a drum and cable transmit tin;
power to the derrick itself, which
may bo moved around as convenience
dictates. It is said the machine does
tho work of IS men. It is a very in
genious, practical and profitable con
trivanco and might be used to excel
lent advantage in many of the south
ern Oregon placers.
This mine has a water right of ex
ceptional excellence, from tho left
hand fork of the Galice creek. This
branch of the stream is not so famous
for its rich spots hs is the righr. hand
fork, but it is thoroughly reliable and
yields most gratifying returns when
properly handled.
WRECK AT TUNNEL 71
Engineer and Fireman have
Narrow Escape.
An unusually bad wreck occurred
on Thursday afternoon at Tunnel 7,
a short distance north of Ulendiilo.
It was the north bound freight
which left Grunts Pass at noon. Vcr-
lion Bnrtlett was engineer and Andy
McCarthy fireman. Near tho Routh
upproach of Tunuel 7 the enirine left
tho rails and buuiped along the ties
till it butted into the batik ut the end
)f tho tunnel, and was shoved far on
the embankment by tho following
curs:. The euuine and tho two ears
immediately following melted into
mass of 'wreckage and the fact that
both engineer and flremau escaped
with their lives, seems miraculous.
McCarthy was carried into the midst
of the wreck. He received two bad
cuts on tho head and was auite
severely burned mid scalded, though
not seriously. Rurtlett escaped with
nothing more than bruises. Passenger
train No. 11, due here at 10:.'IOi. m.
was delayed 10 hours.
Modocs Return Irom Oregon.
For two weeks past, two Modoc In.
dinns, head men of tho remnant of the
tribe, have been at the Klamath Lake
Indian reservation in Oregon ou im
IHirtnut business.
There are but JO members left of the
famous tribe of the Murines that once
.startled the country by ferocious war
in tne lava beds of Modoc county
which terminated with the massacre
of General Cauby mid party in the
70's, while negotiating iieace and the
transferring of the entire tribe to
the Indian Territory. There f,,r
more than a ouarlcr of n eentnrv
the old warrio's and their families
have dwelt among strnnirers in u
strange land, and their numbers have
gradually becu reduced until but 40
aro left.
These long to return to California
and Southern Oregon and dwell with
their former neighbors, the Khunaths,
ou their reservation, receive allot.

ill the land of their fathers For two
weeks the two Modoc statesmen have
pleaded in vain for the concession
irom the lxlamaths.
