NEW GAS PLANT WORKING

Culinary Purposes.
The new gas plant for lighting and

so used for cooking and is far m,rior
for all culinary purposes to the old
method. The plant w ill probably be
extended anil connected with other
bnildiugs iu the near future.
The gas is produced from trasoline
which is stored iu tanls iinte rut nth

RESERVE WAS DISCUSSED
Bo&rd of Trej.de Meets Govern
ment Atlorvt Frtd&y Evening
A"uieeting of tho board of trade and
citizen was held iu tho city hall Fri
day evening to talk over the forest re
servo matter with It. D. Langell, of
tho U.S. iluroan of Forestry, who bad
arrived here to examine tho lands in
eluded within the proposed reserve.
Mr. Langell wns accompanied also by
Mr. Cox, who has charge of tho field
work. Mr. Langell very kindly con
sented su delay his departure from
town iu order to meet the citizens and
hoar what they had to sav on tho sub-
ject.
Tho mooting was called to order by
Presidetit K. Thomas who stated its
object and introduced Mr. Langell
that ho might explain tho object of
tho reserve and its effects on tho sev
eral lines of industry.
Mr.. Langell said that ho had come
to listen rather than to talk. Ho
realized that it was a matter in which
thu people were intensely interested
hut thought that much of the objection
might bo tho result of misunderstand
ing. There aro two reasons for the
creation of reserves; ono for conserva
tion of tho water supply and tho other
to protect the growing timber. There"
had been a great rush for timber laud
on this coast and thcro is Tcry little
good timber land left. It is tiuio,
therefore, for Undo Sain to take up a
few ranches for himself. Whero forest
reserves linvo been created, it has been
demonstrated to tho pooplo nniK to
lumbermen as well that tho jHilicy is
wise. Tho creation In no way anccts
tho locution and operation of mines.
Tho timber may bo used on the claims
mid patent to tho property may bo so
cured. Tho prospector has free use of
the timber. Tho milling companies
aro exiK'cted to buy their timber land.
When they wish to do so, they give 110
lays notice, tho land is appraised mid
the salo advertised. The land Is then
sold to tho highest bidder. There is
no graft in the reserve proposition but
tho forest n movement all over the
country is a grand forward step. This
reserve was proiwised ill lH'.IS but wns
pigeon-holed by Commissioner Her
mann.
Ill answer to quest ions by Mr. Hough,
Mr. Langell stated that settlers with
in tho restive might either retain
their holdings or exchange for other
lands or for scrip. In regard to the
lanilsof the Southern i'acilic company,
ho was unable to state positively, but
thought tho lands would bo exchanged.
Mr. Hough said that tho etlcct of
this would bo to withdraw tin sit lands
from taxation. Tho county is some
fSO.OOO in debt. If these lauds are
withdrawn from taxation, bankruptcy
will ensue. The outlook for Curry
county Is even worse. At present this
county is doing u big lumber business
with a number of little saw mills and
that the elfect of the reserve, would Is.'
to kill this industry. Tho reserve is a
ruinous proHisit ion and would stop
emigration and progress generally.
Judged. O. Booth siipsirtetl the re
marks of Mr. Hough. lie was con
vinced that the reserve would retard
progress.
H. L. Coo spoke of tho rapid growth
of the timber in this country anil how
tlie younger growth where the mature
tiiiibt r had been cut otf sewed tho ob
ject of (be reserve better than tho old
growth which was constantly dying
and making fuel for tlestrucl ive fires.
A. 10. Carlson, shaking for the minor:-,
saitl their opposition to the move
ment is marly unanimous.
II. I'. Kinm y saitl that to th ilri.y
the lumber industry would bo to
smother all lines of business. The
young growth was amply sullicii nt for
all tho purposes of the ri serve nod
that nint h of the ara untl r consider
ation was jitaccssible ; n servt d by
nature- and further reservation not
Heeded.
lirii f spcci'ln s to similar ellcct were
niade by J. II. William", Jos. jilt Most,
and ot hers. Nearly ev. ry one took
part in Ih" di.-cussiou and the adverse
opinions were expressed without re
. rve. It was stated that we have a
hard . noiigh time to gel along as it Is ;
rtj-tt Ciicle Sam, if he interfere., at. all,
ihouhl give us a lilt rutin r II an to
pile aiblitionril burdens upon us. Mr
I.atig' 11 from time to time interposed
quest ions and suggest iou;i from the
govel llllii nt 's point of view. The
tin . ting was long and at the t lose, on
motion of F, W. t'liaiih.,.-, a vote ot
thanks was extended to Mr. I.angell
for his kiii.lni-rrt iu meeting with tbt
citi.' lis and listening to tie ir stale

INDIAN WAR CLAIM PAID
Auditor Approves Ba.ck Pay
Claim of Veteran.
Tho Auditor for the War Department
has approved tho first claim for back
pay filed by a veteran of the early
Indian wars of the Northwest, and
directed that Lewis Lawley, of The
Dalles, w ho served as a private in the
Second Washington Territory Mounted
Volunteers, be paid 134, for services
rendered from March 1" to September
1, I Salt. This amount will bo paid
out of tho first appropriation made at
tho next session of Congress.
Tho Law ley case is oue that was
urged for many months by ex-Repre
seutative Moody, and tjje adjustment
stublishcs tho precedent for the
granting of back pay to all survivors
of tho early Indian wars, who cau
prove service by rolls that are now on
file in tho department. The depart
meut finds, that there are several rolls
in Oregon, which were prepared by
captains us souvenirs and for other
purposes. Persons whoso names are
on these rolls cannot bo paid until the
original rolls aro filed with the
auditor in Washington.
Tho action ou the Law ley case
makes the claimant a qualified appli
cant for pension. Lnwlcy filed ap
plication for pension somo mouths
ago, and his claim was disallowod
because ho could not show pay. Now
that his pay has been authorized, and
his services are recognized by the
government, his pension cla'm will
go through. This decision is of great
importance in that it establishes away
by which Indian War veterans cannot
only recover back pay wheu they
failed to draw allowances heretofore,
but also places thoiu on a jMuslouable
status.
A great many veterans aro unable
to provo satisfactory service, and
whero that proof is not obtainable,
reconl of pay by tho United States is
necessary. Theroforo tho importance
to many 'of securing back pay. Once
this is- obtained, practically the
essential ovitleuco is at band.

BINGER IS A SILVERITE
So Says Prominent Democrat
Quoting His Sayings
(By W. J. Wimer)
The voters of the first congressional
district may not have counted on the
fact that iu the. person of lion. Dinger
Hermann they have elected to repre
sent them one year In the natloual
halls of congress, none other than a
firm believer In the free ana nullmlt-
ed coinage of silver.
On May 28th, Mr. Hermann in
speech delivered at the opera house In
Orants Pass, severely arraigned the
domes-ratio party for changlug it
views on the silver question, and for
oeaslng to pat It forward as one of its
main issues.
He fuuud no fault with them for
having advocated it but thought their
alsunloninK it was sufficient reason
why a democrat should not receive the
votes of the majority, lie said most
emphatically "If it is bad now, it was
bad then. " If free el lvur was " good
then it is good now." On August
2ilth, 1HU3 In the halls of congress.
Mr. Hermann delivered a speech from
which I extract the following. He
said among other things :
I believe sir, that blmntalisin iu
this country is our bust financial
policy. I am a bimetallst because it
favors tho American product. " It
affords a lucrative industry In 12
states of this union and gives employ
ment to 100,000 people and indirectly
to a greater number; I believe that
two standards are bettor than one, for
the scripture teaches us ' if they fall
the one will lift up bis fellow ; but
woe to him when he is aloue when
ho falleth, for he bath not another to
help him up. ' "
Again he says: "No wonder lor
Ign countries regarded with suspicion
a country acting In this manner (re
ferring to the United Htatcs trying to
rlnuiniiotize its owu sliver product)
toward a metal which she produced
more than any other country iu the
world. "
"How long would the credit of ao
individual last who should stand upon
the house top and belittle his owu
resources?
"Put" says Mr. Hormauu in this
speech, "whatever others may do, let
the west provo loyal to silver."
I offer as an apology to Mr. Her
mann, for ceasing to clamor with
hi in for free silver, the Increased
mining of gold, the output of gold now
quite equaling that of both gold aud
silver 10 year ago. Khould the output
of gold fall away materially, I will
join Mr. Hermann for free silver.
Col. Dratier, of the Oregon A
Pacific Itailroad was in town a few
hour Wednesday. Prom here he went
to the surveyors camp on Wilson creek
and thence on to Eureka and then to
Sail Kroiiclneo. He exjmcts to be back

this place would be connected by rail
from ((rants Pass sooner thau Kurvka
with Kan Francisco. The right ol
way has been secured from Grants

work Is to be commenced in this
county within 10 daya Del Norte
