Benders of tlio East Orcironimi are
given an exhibition every day of the
niOHt progressive slid wide-awake mer
chniita to be found anywhere in the
Inland Empire, or in the state, or iu
the. entire country.
Pendleton merchants lead nil others
iu public spirit. Nowhere else iu the
slnto of Oieon, is there fnuud a flues
of men in the mercantile Irasinexs
who will tnko up a matter of public
pood, snnh as the coining good roads
convention, and exploit it in (heir
paid advertising spare in a newspaper,
as Pen 'leton merchants do iu the
columns of the East Oregon ian.
The nowspapers exploit such con
ventions, iu their news and editorial
columns, but nowhere else in Oregon
do the merchants take up the refrain
iu their advertising spare.
Try to remember the time when La
Grande, Raker (!ity, Walla Walla.
North Yakima, Tho Dalles, Eugene,
Halein or other city iu the northwest
enjoyed nn advertisement of a public
convention in the advertising space
of their merchants. Try to remember
a time when any other Oregon town
exhibited such enterprise ami public
spirit.
Thu above is from the Pendleton
East OrcKoniun and shows how the
merchants of that progressive, grow
ing city, view the road problem. For
merchants to devote their advertising
spuce to boom a good roads convention
is something new in Oregon, but not
new in tome other Hales nnd the East
Orrgmiiaii con 11 have included Grants
Pass In Its list of towns whoso uiur
chants take no active interest in the
goo-' roads movement. The Hoiithem
Oregon District Good Roads Conven
tion recently held ill Grants Puss
nnd'r the! auspices of the Oregon
Goeil Reads Association, was given
no advertising space by the merchants
of this city, and nil the advertising
tho convention had was contributed
by the Grunts Puss newspapers, the
Courier doing the principal part of
this grullluouH work in pushing this
good roil ils movement thut means so
much to the uphulldiug of Josephine
county and the prosperity of Urants
1'nHH. The convention was given but
little personal encouragement by the
men, whose, business would bo most
aided by good reads, for it was a fact
that the business and professional
community of n town of over Iihhi
population was represented in the con
vention by but II men. Thu towns
of Jaeksou rouuly made a better show
ing than this at the convention for
there were present from Ashland,
Medford, Jacksonville ami Uohl Hill,
21 business men, besides a number of
prominent men from other sections of
that county.
Tills apathy of Grunts Pass toward
the good roads movement is iu keep
ing Willi the provisions of the charter
of this city, which by u special act
of the legislature, excludes pro erty
within its corporate limits from pay
ment of the county road tax. Thus it
is that of the H - In 111 road levy lor this
year made by the county court will
ha home entirely by the property of
the rural districts anil by the villages
with uo share coming from Grants
Pus. The explanation of this strange
and non-progressive provision of the
Giiinls I'uss charter is that the oily
Iiiih all the burileii it can bear iu keep
ing up its streets. That may lo so,
but It hardly loots just, to a funnel,

Tho quostlou of securing a perma
nent exhibit building for Grunts
Pass Is being considered by the liudi
uess men und others of this city. To
have a building devoted wholly to
the purpose of an exhibit room for thu
product of Josephine county, and
that it shall bo an unique, urtistic
structuie und bn located. on the dcot
grounds, adjoining the railroad track,
is advocated by tiny. The log build
ing outlined by W. H. Sherman, in
the Courier of last week, would be un
attraction of itself, and would meet
the present requirements for an ex
Libit building ill every reKct. Mr.
Hheiman's plan calls for a building
:jOi0 feet, with two additions of
2)x:i) leet each, nnd a brood porch
nl ,it t the entile building. Thu front
facing the railroad to bu fllted W'th
lame plalo glass windows, and each
of the three rooms to have a fireplace.
The main room to be for exhibit pur
poses, and of tlu two small rooms one
to be for an ofllce and the other for a
reading room. Thu logs for the walls
to he sawed ill halves and the hark
side to go on the exterior and the
sawed on the Interior. The rooms to
bu lined and painted. Much a build
iug would cost when fully furnished
hetweeu f.'.VM) and fllisHI.
Those not favoring an exhibit build
iug on the railroad grounds claim
thut (he burden assumed would bu too
greut for tho benefits that would In
had. The t2.(K) for constructing the
building and a maintenance fund of
at least t'ti per month would have to
bo ialsed by contributions from pub
lie spirited citizens. 'Ibis money
could bo easily raised now, while tin
Lewis and Clark fair enthusiasm is
on, and the rivalry is keen between
thu various towns of the stale in
mukiim dtseluvs. When this wave of
immigration boom lug is over iu
year or two, then would come th
real d'HIeulty in meeting the expense
of thu exhibit building, ami soon Ihu
burden would fall upon a few busi
uess men. It would he but natural
that, they would grow discourage
ami cease their contributions, and
(hen the building would soon fall inl
ruin mid the railroad company oiih
Its reinovul, and the f'llioo put into it
would bo a loss, other than the gain
had through it as nil ndvertisi ng veil
lure.
The plan advocated by those favor
ing a v rinuncnt building und u per
iiiuucut exhibit, and which would be
so far us to the building selfsuslaiu
lug, is to organize a stock company
and nut lip a business Mock. The
scheme ill view Is that there be

Shou
t urmihi
nture. To have anottier mree-
story brick block in uranis ras
and Grants Pass is the only town in
Southern Oregon that possesses sucb
structures would, of itelf, be an ad
vertisement of the solid financial
standing of the town, and of its pro-
gresHiveooss, that would carry far
more weight with men ol large means
than would any temporary structure
on the depot grounds. As is always
the case such a structure would lead to
the building of other large blocks,
and thus the city would be benefitted
and all business property advanced
in value.
Grauts Pass has attained the size
and the needs that calls for the or-
Kanizatiou of a Y. M. 0. A. There is
now a movement under way to es
tablish an Association In this city.
and the hackers, who are among the
ading business men of Grant Pass,
are cousiiiering me iiasioiiny oi
forming a stock company for the
purpose of erecting a building suitable
ir the purpose of the organization.
Tho proposition is being Inld in abey
ance until some conclusion is ar
rived at by the promoters of the ex
hibit building. The assurance is
ad that the Y. M. C. A. people
would willingly join forces with any
other organizations in the erection of
building that would meet the needs
f the various public interests in
volved.
Tho Grants Pass Miners Associa
tion and thu mining men generally of
the county would readily go In on
this pro.osition, that would give
them a place for a permanent niiuural
xhlbit iu the business part of the
ity at a rental that would be nomi
nal. Grunts Pass has at tallied to the
metropolitan standing that there is a
need for a commercial club, such as
all pT.grossivH towns 'have and which
are a most important factor in s
town's social, business and financial
landing. Many prominent men
visit Grants Pass from time to time,
and as at present there is no place to
take them in the Interim of their busi
ness, or for an evening, or where a
social gathering or reception may be
held that, may meet the citizens of
the city. Such a club hat been under
unsideriitiou for some time by anuni
her of busim hs men, and should there
bo the opportunity offered of securing
suitable club rooms iu the proposed
building, these men would take stock
iu tho company and assist liberally
in financing the undertaking.
Tho Grants Pass Womans Club, to
which helong over 100 of tho leading
ladies of the city, has attained to
such prominence and strength as will
warrant the securing of a permanent
home for tho Club. It is uo small
lluancial iullueiioe that the ladies of
this Club inn wield, and with the uu
dnrstundiug that they may have snita
bin rooms for their purposes, they
would very materially assist in the
building venture by taking stock.
farture found in progressive cities is a
woman's rest room, arranged with all
he conveniences that a womau would
atipreeiate, who had come from the
country or was down town shopping.
This rest parlor is a mutter that the
ladies of the Womans Club have given
attention to, and so soon as au ap
portunity presents of securing
suitable suite of rooms at a reasou
able rental, the scheme will be cur
ried out and Grants Puss will have
much needed institution and have
inolher evidence of its prorgesslve
Uess.

plans that are most feasible for se
curing quarters for an exhibit in
Grauts Pass of tho products of Jose
phine county, and it is for those
who will put np the money to de
cide which prositioo they will take
up. The depot exhibit building
would bo both an attractive and

With the greatest possible haste in

Last Soldier of 1812 Gone.
A press clipping from a New York
paper giveu to tlie Courier by George
Cronk, tolls of a notable reception
that was held in Duun Brook, N. Y.,
ou April 2U, in honor of the 106th
birthday of Hiram Crouk. The old
gentleman, whoso life has now passed
tho century, is the last survivor of
tho American army in tho War of
IH12. He is III fairly good health and
his mind is as bright as that of the
average man who has reached the
four-score mark. At the reoeptiou
at the old soldier's homo there were
present a large number of his friends
inil several persons of prominence.
Ho received a scoro of letters aud
telegrams from mililaiy and naval
men, including General Shatter aud
Admiral Oewey. Mr. Cronk is an
unfile of Oeorgti Crouk of this city,
being his father's oldest brother.
Since the above was put in type a
message was reeeivid by Mr. Cronk
that his aged uncle had died, ami
with his demise the last survivor of
the war of 1H13 is gone.

Thriving Mining Town.
Capt Evans returned Wednesday
from a few days i'iit at the Granite
Hill mine. Capt. Evans states that
it has been 13 years since his previous
visit to that section of Loose creek,
At that time the valley was covered
with brush and was a wilderness.
Now there is a thriving village with
population of 128 persons, and a
school having 2S scholars. Thu
Granite Hill, though In ojierittion less
than a year, is becoming one of the
largo gold producers of Southern
Oregon, and there is every likeli
hood that the preseut 10-ttatnp mill
will he tularged to 20 stamps at no
distant time. The development woik
has recently opened up a body of ore
that carries extra high values, and as
it appears to be quite extensive it will
add very much to the worth of the
mine.
