at Hugo, wai iu Grants Pass Tuesday
and Wednesday as attorney iu a ense
before the oircutt oourt. Mr. Browu
says Hugo Is on tho boom and des

oouie tho latter handicap. Willi this
encouraging outlook before them, the

i tit Grants Pass, Med ford and Ash-
hind for Hie position of being the big
tuwu of Southern Oregon, and being
both hustlers and staycra they expect
to wiu out.
