Onoe more the Christmas time is
with m; the time when Joy comes
into tlio Iioqio. Though thoro is oc
casfonaUy a home which " Hunts
Clans" never enters and where
Christmas day is the same, as any
other day of the year, such pluc.es
aro comparatively very few and in
Dearly every homo Christmas day is
a day of gladness. The littlo folks
hail the time with unsubdued gh'O
and receive their Rift in an abandon
of happiness impossible to those of
elder growth. Though selfish grati
flcntiop niay predominate in the ex
trcmoly young minds, tlio children
qaiclily learn the trao significance of
tlio gifts and find ns much joy In
giving as in receiving gifts. The
season teaches them in generosity and
regard for others; two things of
Which the world cannot have too
much. Christmas is a -day of re
unions, fiim i ly ties knit closer and
friendships strengthened. Its in-
flnheoe is opliftlng and were It not
for Christmas and similar festivals,
the world would lie far worse than
" ln"
Daring tha past tew weeks the
mechanical department of the Courier
lias been operating under difficulties
and disadvantages which aro yet
present ;and will continue until the
completion of the lower story of
the oow balding. Ever since the
Ooaiior began to vulargo and improve
Its plant, its quarters in the old Iron
building havo been cramped and in
oon von lent When the recent build
ing operations began around and
abovo tlio old building, the liicou
vonlouee was naturally lneresed and
readied its culmintiou when the time
came to tear out the old structure In
order to finish the lower story of tho
new briok building. Tho Courier
then madn ltd exit (o tlio upper story,
hoisting the heavy machinery and
tlio million or less articles neo saury
to the conduct of a printing ollloo
through au nporturo in tho floor, into
tho inoouiplotod nppur story, whero
tho machinery appliances and articles
of all descriptions, type, paper stock,
Iihoto supplies, wero piled together in
glorious confusion. To bring order
out of this chaos and at the same
time keep np with thu rush in job
work, besides getting out six-page
Issues of the Courier, has been a task
winch, has kept tho ninnauenieut ami
employes strictly on the move. The
big press remained down stairs and
for each Impression for tho Courier,
forms and paper have to be lowered
from the upper Hour unci hoisted
gula after printing. Under the
present conditions, the nie of the
water motor is impossible and the
press has to be operated by baud and
by tlio sweat of the brow. The
Courier ofllco itself is hidden away
in a rear room of nn upper floor mid
the only way thereto from the street
ia through a private olllce, yet the
business lias suffered no diminution.
New subscriptions aro received every
day and the Job printing department
is coiucllcd to himtlu to keep from
being covered up with work. Though
at present working under disadvant
ages, it will not be long until the
Courier will have convenient and
commodious quarters ut itH old loca
tion, but in a brand new brick build
ing. Wo will then lie In a position
to give our pat i mis n still better

Lerge Acreage to Wheat.
The acreag sown tn w lit at In
Kogne River Valley this f ill is 'argei
tlian for some vars part. The high
price of trluat this year and the pros
pect for gcd prices for m it year was
the chief lucentive to the farmers
nj the eaily rain made favorable
cvochtioos for plowing and feeding.
The warm, thewery weather has
given a fine growth to iaiu and il

of the year, and as the grain crcp
neTer fails in Southern Cniion, the
pmp.ct is g vJ for a hrge yield next

Lecture d Greonback.
Thu mining camp of Greenback has
quite a strong society of Christian
Scientists. The society was recently
visited by lilcknell Young, a mem
ber of the lecture, board of Boston,
who delivered an address. Wo have
receivo a report of tho lecture as fol
lows: A good-si."d uiulience assembled in
Greenback Hall, Gieeiilmck, Ore.,
Tuesday oveiiiu,:, Dicemhir l::th, to
listen to a lecture on ( I ristinn
Science by liickuell Young, C. S. ii.
of Chicago.
Tho speaker wu.i introduced by
Mrs. Clara Willson Thompson, First
Header of tho tocicly, who said in
part :
'Tho world to,l..y is burdened
with sickness and sorrow, and in
every heart there is a desite for some
thing higher, hottir than earth can
give. In iinswer to this desiro or
prayer, Christian Science has been
given us, which is tho Com'orter
spoken of in tha Scriptures that may
abide with us forever. It is our hap
py privilego this evening to have
again one in our midst who comes
wifh authority mid experience to tell
us of Christian Science nnd of its
revered luider, the Hev. Mary flakcr
U. I'Mdv."
Mr. Young being Introduced, spoke
earnestly ami effectively in behalf of
Christian Science. The following ex
tracts from his lecture are given:
'('In isl ian Scii nee may be defined
as the n il nee of all that relates to
God. mid is seienie not inly in rela
tion to healing, but as corrective in
relation to all i.i oKcms of existence.
'Christian Science does not pro
claim a new God in r a new law, bnt
onus declaring tie same God, and
the same law t hut Ji mis declared.
"The i tcps of salvation in Christian
Science are not unusual. As in oilier
It nominal ions tiny involve the ad
mission or conviction c;f sin, sorrow
lor wrong dt ing or lepenlance, nnd
reformation leauif. stod in a corrected
lif'. Salvation in Christian Science,
however, includes exemption from
sickness, want ami woe, as well as
from sin.
'It Is erroneous to suppose that
Christian Scit nt ists ih nv the reality
of things. They atliini the eternal
Xistcnre of all things, and that thev
exist ill the divine mind in their per
fect individuality and proper order.
They deny the materiality of tilings,
including all the clisroichuit things
manifest.
'Christian Heieut;s!s ate In no wise
arrayed against those v. bo believe in
materia luedica. Oh istian Scientists
lo uot advertise nor sanction quack
ery, ninl they believe in o evii-i: tin
regulations ef health bo.nds in rela
tion to contagious and c tlor dm uses.
'That Christian Science lnvi a placo
in the world's thought t. inv. Is due
Ulire'.y to Mrs. IM ly. There was a
time w hen she Mood absolutely alone
with God, and inmrr-d the iid;c;:le

Ashland Loses Sewer Suit.
Ashland had projected a sewer sys
tem that would have cost nearly $o0, 000
with the expeotations of giviug bet
ter sanitary conditions to that city.
But an injunction suit has brought
the work to a atop and now the city
will have to pas a new ordinance
am! login all over again, and this
time fill the requirements of the law
if they expect to be able to make
projx rty owners pay their assessments.
Of the cause of Ihe auit and of Judge
Hauna's rulings, the Ashland Record
has die following: The plans of the
last six mouths for an extensive sewer
ay-teru that would meet the present
needs of the entire city of Ashland
were knocked into a cocked hat by a
decision handed down in the circuit
court by Judge Hanna Monday morn
ing in the ease of C. A. Kliason vs.
the City of Ashland. The city lost
on itll four points rairod.
The grounds upon which Judge
Hanna found the ordiiianoe void,
were :
First, That the eeosoll had failed
to give due notice aad therefore had
no jurisdiction.
Second, That in the making of the
assi Mment the - ordinance plainly
hnwi thai oo aliicretisn or discrimi
nation ai to the amount of benefits
was used.
Third, That the tea per cent penalty
was not authorized by the charter or
tntu to.
Fourth. That the descriptions aro
too inilenflte for tho purpose of levy
ing an assessment.
Tho mayor and majority of the
nitv council have based their plaDS
entirely upon tha soundness of tho
ordinance drawn by their city attor
ney and ropentedly refused to recede
from their position, tho opinion of
rival lawyers being considered not
worth while as against that of the
city's legal advisors. The upsetting
of tho ordinance levying some $J3,000
spe cial sewer benefits taxes on prop
erty joining the proposed sewer under
the llancroft net privileges prnctvally
means the collapse of tho present ar
rauj," ments and ai the city election
take., place noxt week the new ad
ministration will have the completion
of the sower system to work ont. It
will also meet with opposition any
plan that contemplates sewering the
entire town by a special benefit, tax
will.
Tho oity must refund
which has been paid in
count of the assessment
Just been doclared illegal. Some of
this amount is now represented in
cash on baud and souio of it is repre
seiifed iii :000 worth of sewer pipe
which the city has ou hand.
Thu diptheria epldemio nud scare,
so far os tho people) of Grants Pass is
ennci rnod is practically over, for
but four families are now under
quarantine. Tho quarantine is being
rigorously enforced and no new
cases having appeared in town it is
thought by tho authorities that tho
disensn is at nn end. Exaggerated re
pons were spread at a distance and
tlmro has been but few persons coming
to Grants Pass of lain teitv. i.A
--- ...... ,. ..I, , oiine-
quenee that trade has fallen off very
.,, musing a serions liuancial
loss to the city.
Thohias Perry, who has a fine farm
on the Williams Creek road, five
miles from Grants Pasi was in this
city lata Saturday. Mr. Perry has
the honor of being one of the first
subscribers to the Courier, he giving
in his name before tho first copy of
the paper had been run off. He is
one of the snccessfol farmers of Jose
phine coonty and is a strong advo
cate of good roads. As an instance of
the condition of the roads in Ins
locality, Mr. Perry tells that recently
a teamster was driving along with a
heavy load of wocd when the wheels
dropping into the chuckholes, jerked
the tongue of the wagon to ono side so
violently as to throw one of the horses
off its feet and onto its back in a deep
mudhole and in such a shape that it
could not regain Its foct. The team
ster was unable to extricate his horse
and Mr. .Ferry and some of his neigh
bors wont to the man s assistance and
they had considerable difficulty in
gottiug the horse loose from the har
ness and out of the depths of the rund
hole. To prevent tho recurrence of
such accidents and to make the read
passable for this winter, r. Perry
and eevoral of his neighbors havo
donated considerable labor and have
hauled gravel and filled the worst of
the mudholes. Mr. Perry does not
favor this patching of tho roads and
fivors the county undertaking the
work of constructing highways by
modern methods of road construction,
so that when a road is built it will be
passable at all seasons of the year and
uot bo a constant source of expense
for repairs and then not be f.o n team
can pull a load over It.

is 75 years old and the bones had been
broken since the previous Tuesday, I
he is on tho fair load to recovery and
may regain tho use of his arm to a
limited extent but the accident will
end his prospecting days. Iho old
