THUHSDAY. I) IXK.MISLII 8, 1001.
Human folly i not at all uncommon
and its varieties aro many. Hut it i
unusual to hoar of a folly that i of a
now kind. A Moutanu luuu linn fur
oUhed an ftutuaco. licing tliimty
lie drank a deep draught of orchurd
pray and died.
TWO DEGENERATED CUSTOMS.
Wliila tlio old-time custom of
cliarivuring a newly married couple
has ceased hi moat diction", having
fallen into dlnrcpulo with the. better
clans of people, yet in boiiio placci it
survive to the disgrace of tl" cem
m unity. Kut it Sb etondily declining
and from timn to tiiuu, the courts ac
celerate itH decline, by he:ivy pnnitdi
moutB of tlio churivuriera who become
too ruwdiuh. A recent liintiuico it
thut of Juilo Hoguo in Portland, who
fined an entire charivari paity, the
Judgs announcing, "That a man and
woman have a right Jo get married
without intcrfcraiice from a gang '
hoodlums, unrl that it is 1 1 i K timo
that tlio barbaric custom of the
charivari, ait for yearn conducted by
thu rowdy element, uliould be up
prosxed. "
Tlifl"cliarivari wits a custom brought
from Enropo by the Fn'iicli Croolen,
of tlio MntxinKippi Valley, and us cur
ried on by them wan ft time, of inno
cent merry-making at which the
friends of tlio newly married ecnple
gathered and sung and danced and
with light wines drank to tlm long
life and 1 npplncus of the briilo and
groom. But no hooii an tlio Americaim
adoited tlio custom, they proceeded to
make, of tlm charivari, a timo of un
restrained TintiiiK during which (lis
graceful conduct, horrible noises and
often times destruction of property
were tlio chief features. Only laid
week at Itaysovlllo.lii Slnrioti county,
charivari party, finding ordinary
noise niotbodit not meeting their
' wishes, wit olf a chargo of dynamite,
With tlio insult that they wrecked the
lionse wherein were tlio luckleHH
couplo who wore the victims of their
barbaric conduct. As now carried
on, tlio innoce nt merrymaking of the
early French settlers of America, linn
degenerated Into a rough method of
forcing a contribution of money from
a Impious bridegroom.
Another custom from tlio Old
World, that too wan a timo of mirth
and Innocent prim I-1, is hullowo'en,
which. in America lias liecomu but a
shield for hoodlum and veugefu)
persons to destroy property and perpo
that jokes thut lire both si useless mill
harsh. And hullowu'eu pranks, an
are ohurivarl serenades, are being dis
continued by the lespcctiiblo element
and tlio time is uot distant when both
will bo a thing of tlio pant ami the
hoodlums will lave to seek some
other way by which they can give
vent to their wild conduct uml yet
not incur arrest and punishment as is
done to other disturbers of the peace
and distroyers of property.
r AN INJUSTICE TO SETTLERS.
The chief hand nap to Josephine
county's prosperity is lack of good
roads, and not until a xytscm of high
ways having easy grades and n hard,
smooth surface, roadbed on which
tenuis can haul, all seasons of the
year, a maximum load per horse,
will it bo possible to fully develop
thu mineral, timber and agricultural
resources of tlio county. As the roadu
now are, the t rmiioi t.-it it'll charge
would absorb all Ihe profits on any
venture thut may be uuderlal.cn, ex
cept a few that aie exceptionally
favored ns to high proliis, or by
iiciiiiiik to the railroad. It will hi
wagon roads largely nil her than
steam, or ebelric loads that the in
dustries of .Iom'I bine county will
liavo to depend on i heap transpor
tation facilities, for the environment
of mountain ruiigis make the hauling
too short In most mcIIohs for tin
prolilablo operation of electric oi
steam railways. Emu wheie tin
topography of the country onnit tin
building of electric ruilnads, wagon
roads will be required for feeders ami
to give the outlying distnrls access to
markets. With good iiiHcadainieil
roads, uutomoliilii freight wag ns
Could bo brought into use and attoni
the miners and other having hcav
products to move, u v ly economic ii
transportation method.
With the county lieimly in debt,
sparsely settled, and halt of its laud
held by the laittoel coiiipiny and
not for sale, anil the oilier hall
largely held by nou r. -el. nt sci u!a
tors and by the giueial gmi i mie nt,
tlio problem of raising ihium-t foi
road-building is a serious one lo tin
residents of Jom' bine county. Her,,
toforu the road tun levy lus In en hole

other property on the tax tolL and
then have the road levy pat op to a
point that will yield a sufliciont sum
to tlo practical, effective work that
will give permanent roads to the
cotMitry. That the present system of
road building works an injustice on
the residents of the comity, is a mat
ter that Is patent to all, and especial
ly is this so with the settlers and
miners in the outlying districts on
whom the building nf roads is a
heavy harden. Ihe railroad company
and tlio speculators contribute so lit
tle as to practically amount to noth
ing toward the construction of roads,
yet every mile of road adds very
materially to the value ol their land.
With all cl.irirts of property payiug a
road tax in proportion to benefits
gained and the tax levy high enough
to yield a BU'ii within the reasonable
demands of the county, and then ex
pended under modern methods of road
.'onstrnotiou, Josephine county can
secure good roads without eicess
ively burdening Its oitlzens who ars
struggling heroically to develop the
many and rich resources nf theconnty.

Grants Pass Iron Works Enlarged.
A movement is on foot by which a
llrst class foundry and machiuo shop
Is to be secured for Grants Pass.
Through the efforts of the Grants Pass
Miners' Association the business men
of this city will furnish fuuds for the
enlargement of U. M. Hall's Grants
Pass Iron Works. The plan is to en
large this plant to a capacity which
w ill enable it to handle alt the mm
ing, mill and mac In no work of thu dis
trict. Kd Daulooher of Sau Francisco
will bo associated with Mr. Hall in
the management of tlio greater plant.
This movement is one of great im
ixirlaiice to Grants Pass and tlio whole
S nt hern Oregon district as the ad
vantage of a plant like the one pro
posed is inert iimiblu and the fact that
the movement is backed by the busi
ness men ol Grants Pass is a guaran
tee of the solidity of the project.
Good Progress on Gallce Road.
Good prorgoN is being made oil the

tin road on the north side of tlio river
is now receiving thu attention of the

Hue of the most import mt improve

New Street Lifht Installed
Mayor II. L. Qilkey having signed
up the five-Tear contract, recently
entered ii.to by the city of Grants
Pass with the O. P. N. W. L. & P.
Co. , for street lighting, the company
Is preparing the instal the new
system. Such of the Incandescent
lamps as were of bat 18 candle power,
have been changed to 82 caudle power
lamps, and as these small lamps
were all on the residence streets it
gives that section a decided Improve
ment in street lighting. The lire

pected hero soon and it is intended to
have the new light system all In by
Jauoary 1st. There will bo nine am
lights of 2000 caudle power each and
while the location of each has not

that one light will bo placed on Sixth
street near the depot, four on North
Sixth street and two on Booth Sixth
stieet, two on West Front street and
one on East Front street. Tlio AO incan
descent lights will bo distributed over
the residence district to givo that pari

Willi this new system in operation
the streets of Grants Pass will bo well
lighted mid pedestrians will bo able
to getabont the streets with mnrociisc
than heretofore and tlio city will pre

INSTITUTE ATWILDERVILLE
A Well Prepared Program, An
Enoyeble Time For Teacher.
The teachers local iuetinte held at
W'ilderville last Saturday wat a success
notwithstanding the ratber small at
tendance by reason of the nearly im
passablo roads which prevened many
teachers from reaching that country
school house.
At 11 am. Superintendent L.Savage
called the institute to order, after
whicn Miss M. Lou Ginbb teacher at
Wonder, read a well prepared paper
on "Heading, its riace ana now
Taught." An interesting discussion
of the points was theu had, when ad
journment was had for dinner. The
ladies of Wilderville district Bad pre
pared a dinner that was all that one
could desire and which was served on
tables in the schoolhoaso.
The first subject for the afternoon
was "American History which was
handled by Miss M. Astella Goodin
of the Grants Pass High School.
Miss Goodin spoku of tlio importance
of this study as a power in mating
butter citizenship and she gave some
helpful points on teaching history. A
geuura) discussion of the subject was
then had after which Prof. R.R. Tur
ner, city superintendent of GrautB
Pars schools, took np the subject of
grammar aud made clear the knotty
problems that teachers meet in teach
ing this study. This subject was dis
cussed and then Miss Lara Austin,
teaching near Wilderville, read a pa
per on the value of a normal training
for teachers. Mibj Austin made a
strong argument in favor of teachers
seiuring the benefit of normal train
ing and of tho bitter work it would
enabled them to do in tin) schoolroom
The concensus of opinion iu the dis
cussion which followed waBthat mod
ern schools madu normal methods of
teaching essential and made success
almost certain. The last topic was
Tlio Value of Thoroughness" and
was taken up by general discussion in
which most of the teachers and sever
al of the visitors took part, ard It
was agreed that without thorough
ness, all the oilier work of the school
room was a failure.
A voto of thanks was given the res
idents of Wilderville for their geuerons
hospitality and for their liberal assist
ance in making the institute the suc
cess it was.
The next local institute will be held
in Grants Pass souio time in January.
