VOORHIES, Propr. & Mngr Entered at the pout ollioe at OranU Oregon, a second-class mail Dialler. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 12, 1903, Tim livost organization in CirnuU Faiw, and the most active and zealous in iui work, in the Womun's club and tho Grant Pans Woman's club is tbu J best organization of it kind in the state. A pnblio officer who does bis work well should be allowed some praise. Blame and criticimn are the lot of every pnblio man under tho nan, but ; praise is a rarer article. John I'utrick, the recently retired street commis sioner, has been diligent and faithful throughout his long term of oflloe and has douo good and substantial work for tho city. Next Saturday is Valunt'iiu's day. The pernicious custom of sending "comic" valentines, which aro not comic nor funny but silly and con temptible, is, we aro glad to note d creasing as tho world advances farther into light. Every person who receives "comic" valentine should placo it carefully into the stovo with the tonus, unotiencd uiid unread. Fulton's chances for landing the scnatorHlilp are getting smaller every day. It is now extremely probable thnt the election will bu deferred till tho hint minute of tho List day, when some newly named man will go through with a runli. Who it will . be is beyond tho jwer of tho politi cal prophet to state, but the logical candidate is R. A. liooth. The Male furnishes no better material. Last Sunday Grants l'ass was a "dry town" for the first time in years. Tho mandate of Mayor lliudinr to enforce the Sunday closing ordi nance was carried out In his efforts to enforco tho city laws and to curry out the promises under which he was elected, the mayor deserves the hearty commendation and support, of Hie peo ple of tho town. When saloon men enter business here they are aware of tho restrictions and they should ob serve them without being comjielled. Let them olwervo thu laws us other people aro obliged to do. Tho mayor should bo supKrtod in this move. A matter that has aluorlxid a good dual of the public into rest this week is that of tho Rogue river bridge. Some of the merchants of Grants 1 W seeing that the ugly gap in the south approach remained unchanged for nearly three weeks, became naturally luiisitiuut and Inclined to take matters into their own hands. Their action has caused some friction between themselves and thu county court and as a result, Commissioner love!acc, who hud tho work in charge, has handed in his resignation. As a mat ter of fact, very thorough Investiga tion as to what had been done, was not made before taking action and this has placed tho county court apjuirently in au unfair light. Probably if the court had unticlutod thu delay in get ting material which has occurred, they Would havo' provided Immediately somo temporary way of crossing but tho delay was not uiitlclileel The order for timber was sent in imme diately but there was delay in tilling tho order. Meauwhilo Mr. Lovelace was quietly making proparut ions and obtaining material. Ho was getting all things iu readiness and so shaping tho scheme that the different details, of preparations would ho ready at about the same time. Then, when all things were ready, ho intended to put in the bridge quickly, iioriiinnonl ly and to stay. The quiet proianition was a feature not appreciated by the general public who Hunted to see something done to the bridge. It i, to lie luqied that Mr. Lovelace will be Induced to reconsider tits resignation. During the time lie hat Wen in oltlcc ho has douo excellent work for the county ii nil has saved for it several thousands of dollars In bridge work. Ho Is the most valuable 'man that the comity has had iu nttlco for many years and wo can ill afford to lose bin iter Vices. Ho is a thorough bridge mechaiilu and his work Is of a quality that will endure. It is a pity that commendation of good work cannot be more freely expressed. The ss'ctacle of a mayor and council at loggerheads Is not edifying ami we sincerely hope the situation will In short lived iu this city. t'p to the present time tho temperature of the city hall has lecu serene. Though the mayor and the council came to a deadlock over the apiliitinent of the city unicorn, yet tho disagreement ha but a friendly one. No ill feeling ha boon exhibited and tho mayor and council have worked harmoniously iu tin city's business affairs. Now, however, since os u war has Is , u eh clared, tho situation assume a differ eut aspect and a darker on,, for the city, for if the mayor ami council de vote their energies to uprising each other, who will look out for He city's Interests? Since the last meet lug, the mayor has Is-ou predominant over his adversaries but none cvevpt the foolish prophet exa cts this condi tion to continue w ithout a d. termm. ed effort to prevent it. The i,i,. of the council nro as linn In their de termination as is the mayor and prob ably have a course mapped out to rem puss his confusion if possible. Now there is no question but has two M,t, s.

The mayor considers that, ho was elected on certain principles which he is therefore iu duty bound to carry out and to that end ho wants his own up H)lntees iu the subordinate cilices. Tho council Insists that tho mayor's appointment are not satisfactory. There should be an earnest effort made to get together. J-et each party give way a little if necessary. Let a con ference bo held and the points of dif ference enumerated and tubulated if necessary and some means devi.- el, by arbitration if no oiler way presents itself, to eliminate these. It is imperative for the good of the oily that war should bu no more. Peace is sweet. MASS MEETING OFCITIZENS Held on Friday to Assist Repair of Rogue River Bridge. Iu rosiHiiiKo to a request of some of the citizens, Mayor liushnr called a mass meeting of the citizens of (.rants Pass on Friday afternoon. The pur pose of tho meeting as stated ill the cull was to assist the county court court if lsisHiblo iu tho re jeair of the Itoguo river bridge. The meeting was attended by a large number of the citizena. Mayor liashor was elected chairman and Fred Mensch secretin y. The chairman stated the object of the meeting and invited discussion. Inquiry was made us to what hail been douo but as no member of the county court was present, nohery definite information was forthcoming. County Clerk It. L. Parth tt said that the matter had been placid iu the hands of Commissioner Itvelaco with instructions to fix tho bridge us soon as he could. The order for lumber hud been iiniiii diately suit in but there had been unavoidable and unexpected dc lay in filling the order. Mr. liart- lett said that Mr. Lovelace was getting things ready as fast as he con Id and would do the work in a few davs lis soon as the materials wen on hand. For temporary use a free ferry was suggested. The ii. P. W. L. & P. Co. offered the use of their scow which might be readily converted into a fer ryboat and the Golden Drift Mining Co had offered to loan tin ir cable. Tho river luniks were already par tially graded at the site of the old free ferry and a little work would make them passable. A motion was inaclci by Dr. Smith to adopt the ferry boat idea but oil division of the house the motion was lost. J. W. Howard moved that tint chair man appoint a committee to procure material for a tc niporury bridge. This mot ion was afterwards modified to the appointment of a committee of 10 to work In conjunction Willi tin court. This motion was adopted and tho following committee wi re ntinied by the chairman: Henry llarlli. K. L. Cue W. I. (Sweet land rrank Fetscli, John Hi 'bullhorn. It. D. Cole, W. M.

To the Editor of the Courier : In tlie last issue of the Observer, ap ceared an account of the performances of his honor, Mayor Bashor of Grants Pass at the last regular meeting of the common counc il. The present coudition of city affairs is a public matter. It is a legitimate subject of public comment. It is one that does not promise anything but a continued squabble or row betwe en the mayor and the council and one which may entail tho city and some of its ofllcers in ueedlcss and costly litiga tion and oxjieuse. As tho w riter of this artic le does not own a uewsi r or rather an equita ble interest iu one ho must of course should lie npjs'ar in publio'-T.rint at tach his name to any Cwjimunieation which he may desire to send forth. The writer fully realizes that newspa per rows are not usually productive of favorable results but as the writer has had one or two newspaper rows before his willing to take) his chances again this time and li t usks this space in your imjs'r that some explanation may be given to those who may not know all or the true condition of affairs. In the first plac et wo have a mayor who was not elected but w ho is only acting under color of title to thct'oMie-e. At the time of his nomination in the city convention last November the writitr undertakes to say that little or un thought was given by the political manipulators who brought about his nomination as to his ability or fitness for thu place. Iladtlnre b in he would not have been nominated. It is au indisputable fact that the mayor was nominated hy a small coterie of ambitious would be polit'cians who urn anxious to found u new "political pary in Josephine county, uiid lo start the building up of a xlilical machine in the city politics. This coterie con sists of Marcus Hobbius, Oeorgo I'. Jester and a telegraph ciiN-rutor by the name of Isliuin. Messrs. Jester anil Ishaiu and the mayor are employes of the H. P. ('oiniuuiy of Kentucky. Mr. Uobbins is not a resident of the city. Not one of them jmys a dollar of taxes iu the city; not one of them lias rest (led in this city three years, audi be lieve it is a safe' prediction to say that not one of them will reside here three years hence ; not one of them cares a straw as to what may Iiapioii iu this city so long us his own sellish ambi tions may be satisfied. This is the condition of affairs which confronted the; common council of the city of Grants Pass, when the present acting mayor took his seat on the first Thurs day iu January of this year. Prior lo the time when the mayor took his seat there whh considerable talk Mining various oiti.ens and tax liavors in the city as to whether lie would bo lseniiittcil to take the office. One member of the council culled up on him, and he was told iu uniiiisttik able language that it would be the de sire of Mr. Hashor, should he be seat ed to work in harmony w ith the coun cil and to make such appoint incuts us would be confirmed by the council and to fill the various offices wifh men ca pable and at the same time acceptable not only to the council but to a ma jority of the citizens and tax payers' lie furthermore told the member of the council referred to that if his up IKiintnieiils were not continued he would meet the council Ui discuss the question of appointments to the vari ous offices and would do all in his siwer to agree with tlieni. I In wa. Ilnally seated. At the first meeting in .January he made his appointments none of which were acceptable to the council ami all were rejected. At the next regular meeting he again uttered certain apHiintiiients for the coiisidera tion of the council. These likewise wen eucnen inewii unci morcoveT the tmivor knew they would be. ltetweeri the llrst unci second regular meetings the mayor met certain members of the council ami the matter of appoint ments to the city offices was licussid and at other times private interviews vvc'ic had with him by various mem- rs if the council but uo candidates where every man may express his po litical ideas and vote according to his political faith, but ono thing i cer tain, they shall not build up a social ist jsilitical machine in this city tins year for their own political aggran dizement anil advancement with the .Southern Pacific company of Kentucky by dealing out the public: offices as they seo fit, unci without the consc in of the council, unless some minus is devised whe re by at b ast six members of the common council shall lose their seats.

We are expect in;.' quite au immi gration here in this vicinity soon. We need a lot of steady young men that are matrimonially itijlimd, for we have a right smart chance of the opposite sex that alee looking out for fellows. Since my last writing we have had quite a lot of snow- but no wind so the storms have not be"ii severe. The snow lias retarded farm business but is going off gradually. We have had frosty nights with sunny days so the snow has melted gradually. At pre sent it i.- fog.y. T. .1. Mackin of Virtue & Mtickin, always has a smile on his face. The girls like to wait until he isat liberty t'i wait on them then there is a rush to fee who shall be waited on first. 1 luce upon a time he was very reserv ed when in compiiiiv with the young ladie s, but that time seems to have passed away. Kvcibdily is well, hardly any one1 complaining of cold or anything of that nature. With the warm south winds the snow will soon he gone, then farmers can finish sow ing their grain and make garden, us we have) it good marker for all we can raise. Farmers will raise big crops this year. We think the Nugget that is printed at Cottage Grove is a little off. It says that Cottage Grove and vicinity is the be st place 011 earth to settle in.

The snow has sent several of our prospectors in from the hills. Some brought iu some tine specine-ns that show free gold Soon as the hills are bare again, we will hear of some rich finds. The snow has melted so slow that the creeks are not high and the miners are getting the benefit oT the rain and snow. As bad as the roads are, freight is being hauled to different points. Wide Awake.

At the Mountain King quartz mine on Powell creek, a vein of rich ore has been recently discovered. Jeff Raney has b'.-cu hauling the Smme and stone s for au arra.tre at this place this week. The recent storm has deposited an immense amount of snow in the high mountains. Farmers ami miners are rejoiciug over this as it is indic ative of plenty of w ater for mining and ir rigating iu the spring and early sum mer. Everett Holm.in went to Grants Pass Friday. He reports that there is two feet of snow on a lev -1 oil up- .r Powell creel;, and that tie miners have suspended op. rations. The re- c ut flood did no more, damage at the Sharp Bros, and Holinaii mine than to cam- away three of the Hume loses. "Sis and Shi" the sui cesser. of 'Ma and Pup" who write ostensibly from Bridge' Point, Applcgufe, came out with an interesting budget of news in last week's Courier.
