THOHSOAY. AI'UIL 28, 1904.
Productive jurors iu tlio criminal
cases cf the present and previous
forma of court are generally asked by
tlio attorneys if lliey Imve heard or
read anything of the case iu hand and
are required to give their eource of
information. Tlioso who "read it Iu
the Courier" ate in the majority iu a
Tory noticeable, degree and the fact is
an undeniable indication of the popu
larity of the Courier, ils extensive
circulation ami, incidentally, its ex
cellence, aa an advert Islng medium.
Crirvollls comes to the front with a
whiskey tragedy, a case where a young
man got drunk aud full of fight and
yearned to kill everybody he saw.
After lie had shut two men, one of
them mortally, lie was liimself killed.
Tho quest ion now Is, how muli
saloon liveuse will CorvallU have to
collect before tho (lead men nro paid
for and how much "fun" must saloon
habitues have to counterbalance the
grief ntteiidnnt on the trngedyV
When tlio i stimuted "worth of Dunn
and Keady ia balanced on the city
books, how much moro matt be col
lected to pay for Ihu trouble of Ollleer
Oshurn, who is lying with a bullet
hole thnrugh Ills neck, and the ex
pense of the detention and trial of
Keady's companion and accomplice'!1
There is also au interesting problem
as to the worth of saloons in a com
munity, ill tlio Chiles and Dennett
cases of our own county, to compute
tho expenses of trials, board of
prisoners at t per week, the dam
ages, financial and otherwise, to
Patrick, to Dolan, and to the rela
tives and friends of Chiles and lien
not, comparo tliesuiu of these oxiicnrcs
to tho revenue, and sue how much
financial adviuitngo appears to offset
tho other considerations in regard to
tho business.
A LITTLE "SNOW STORM"
See. re Head Malt "Spread"
Himself.
Tho little "snow storm" of Friday
morning, wblcii barely covered the
ground and moiled off immediately,
famished material for a three Inch
double column ware lieud iu the
Portland Toll gram, willi dire
prophecies of the destruction of the
fruit crop if certain conditions of
weather should eusue. Tho worst
feature of the ense was that the ar
rangement of the "alarm" was such
that a careless reader would gain the
impression that the damage whs an
actual occurrence instead of being a
mure piogiiostlcatiou. If the Tele
gram follows up this course of record
ing future possibilities under presum
able conditions, it certainly will mil
lack for uiuttcr to 1111 tip its columns,
but wo would prefer that our calami
ties should remain aurecoideil until
they occur.

tho time in the employ of the com

engine. The case was tried in the
October term aud Dunham was given
a verdict of fl2,000. This verdict
was set aside anil a new trial granted
for the present term. Dunham's case
waa conducted by Judge lieuuett of
Tl.o Dalles, whilo W. D. Fen ton of
Portland looked after the company's
interests. Tho interest was yreatly
increased by tho keen ability which
both attorneys exhibited in their con
duct of tho case. Tho jury retired
about 6 o'clock Friday evening mid
after about three hours deliberation,
relumed a verdict for the plitimiff in
the sum of t'O.OOO, exceeding by
fwjoo tlio amount granted by (he jury
in the first trial.

, MINING ON WOLF CREEK
O. M ta D. Co. Will Me.ke Exton
ive Improvements.
M. B. Eozorth, who is interested
in the Southern Oregon Mining &
Development Company aud tho Wolf
Creek Mining & Development Com
pany, lias just retruned from South
ern Oregon. lie reports matters in a
very prosjierous condition aud says
this is an ideal season forthoplaucr
miner. The giants are steudily at
work with plenty of water aud lots of
snow left in the hills.
"Indications are excellent for a
good, long run and the final cleanup
will not be made until about July I,"
said he to The Tuh graoi. "I was 13
days on tho Jump off-Joe property
and while there prosiccted it thor
oughly in the channel where we are
now piping.
"The gold ia mostly of a coarse
order and it was almost impossible to
take a pan of dirt from any ploco iu
the channel that did not yield good
values, as high as (1 per pan being se
cured in some instances. There an
three distinct channels on Pnmmer
Creek. The one now being worked ir
about 110 feet wide, carrying pay
gravel averaging a depth of fonr feet.
We will commence art ive develop
ment work on our quartz claims on
Applegate river.
"I inspected the Wolf Creek prop
erty whilo thero, and will soon ar
range to make extensive im; rovemeuts
in Hie way of building a new ditch
and installing moro hydraulic ma
chinery. A few days ago, Messrs.
Wilson & Kickard, who are working a
claim adjoining our property on Wolf
Creek, picked up a I7 nugget They
are using a self shooter, and after
every discharge of water numeronr
pieces of coarse gold are picked up
from the bedrock.
"There is considerable activity in
all sections of tho country where 1
visited, in both placer aud quartz,
i lid some good sales are pending.
Southern Oregon is surely destined
to become ono of tho greatest mining
centers in the entire Northwest."
THOMPSON CREEK MINE
Machinery to Be Installed e-nd
Mine Developed
Frank Jordan of Cottage Grove
was iu Grants Puss last week, return
ing from Thompson creek, where he
is interested iu a mining property.
He is associated with Win. Jorduu of
Merlin aud Riley Thompson of Grants
Pass. The mine is about 1,'a miles
from Applegate and shows up a vein
of ore from 8 to IH inches across which
has been traced for 400 feet aud carries
good values. There is already about
2IK) feet of tunnel besides other im
provements and it is tho Intention of
thoownors to equip the mine with
machinery and extensively develop
the properly during tho summer. Mr.
Jordan for a number of years pasl
has been operating mining property in
tho lioheniia district, where ho is still
interested.
The Punkin Hunkers.
Tlio comedy, "Punkin Huskers,"
was played at tho opera! house ou
Monday eveuing The ability of the
company is shown by the fact that
they found a small, cold, listless
audience and worked it op to Hie
highest pilch of enthusiasm and ex
citement. The plot is the regulatiou
thing, a mistake, which, through tin
crass stupidity of tho principal char
acters, cannot be explained until the
mischief is done. Many of Hie
situations were new and sonio of them
were amusing in qn.tc an intense de
gree. SiN'cial scenery was usud in the
presentation of the play.

GOOD . LEDGES STRUCK
Prospecting Around Lele-nd svnd
Tunnel 9.
We are having cool, cloudy wenther,
with a light sprinkling of rain. It re
tards gardening, but it ia good for
grass and other vegetation.
Business is good here ; we can hear
of a scarcity of money in some other
parts of the state, but here in Lelaud,
business is moving quitely along, as
we do not iudulge in any wild cat
speculations. We have bad a very
mild winter, vwetli very little wiud,
no deaths aud no divorces.
Frank McCrscken, with some others
took in the Pass last week. Frank is
one of our staunch placer miners, be
ing located on Brimstone mountain.
He is well pleased with bis run this
winter as he has a good water right,
and his ground is easy to work very
few big boulders, and gald dust begin
ning to come in to pay for sopplios.
As meat of Hid miners had to bring
on long ditches and other extra work,
they went ou credit.
A good many prosrst'etors are wait
ing for the weather to clear npso they
can go iu the hills to prospect ; with
so many good ledges being struck, the
last year, it has stimulated the quartz
miners so thero will be more men in
the raouutaius this year than ever be
fore. A good deal of i.ttentiou is be
ing paid to the vicinity of Tunnel 9
as the formation iu that vicinity is
very bright as several ledges have
been found but for want of capital
they nover have been fully develop I.
Thero seems to bo a deficiency iu the
different quartz mills in extracting
md saving the gold; the rock iu
sevcrul ledges in this viciuily assays
well, but in purchasing a mill aud
making a run, the. mill does not save
the gold. That is ouo reason why so
many mills cease to run; if wo had a
mieltur hero tl trout the ore, thou this
vicinity wonld turn out as good ore
as Gold Bug or Greenback. If cap
italists could ouly realize the amount
of quartz lodges we have in this dis
trict, they would not hesitate iu
erecting a null suitable to treat our
ore, then that would encourage
miners to go on with tho ledges that
have been idle for quite a while.
Capital is what is needed to develop
this country. We have good rock,
40od timber, plenty of good water.
