SOME FACTS ON THE
GOOD ROADS PROBLEM
Politics May Have a. Bearing on
. the Attitude of Grants
Pass.
Editor Courier Having beeu re
quested to write an article on the
pnblio road question, herewith sub
mit in substance what I havo been ad
vocating for years. . Good public high
ways have been important factors in
the civilization of nations since the
time when ail pnblio roads were made
to lead into Rome, Good roads,
good school houses, and no saloons
are the three evidenoes of niodert)
civilization and prosperity.
Poblio roads being for the good of
the pnblio, it logically follows that
the entire pnblio should help main
tain them. The fact that an indivi
dual or a corporation of individuals
has enterprises in which the poblio
may have no interest, does not lessen
the individual obligation. A corpora
tion is nothing more nor hssthaoa
big individual. If I should undertake
to grade the private roads through my
land, I would still be a .part of the
pnblio aud subjict to all of its obli
gation. And the same rale holds good
witli reference to the corporate indi
vidual. This brings tis to notice that clause
in the charter of Grants Puss which
exempts its citizens from county road
tax. Such a clause is plaiuly uncon
stitutional, aud certainly very unjust.
It violates the fundamental principle
npon which a democratic govern
ment rests: that of equal rights and
equal obligations. The c rporaliou is
a creature of the state, and the
creature can never rise above the
creator.
If it bo argued that the people of
Grauts Puss havo buidcns enough
without paying road tax, let uie say
that they assumed tin so burdens
knowingly, aud that they call throw
thorn o(T at any time. I assume bur
dens evury day, but I still have to
pay road tax.
The claim that the stnte legislature
granted the charter is correct, hut lot
us remcniher that the stuto legisla
ture also made the road law, and tht
a general law always hits precedence
over a special law. Now let us sou
how modi wo have lost by this cx
exmption clause. The taxable, prop
erty of Grants Pa-s f r four ye:ts
past has beeu abont fHOO.OOO. One
fourth of one per cent of this wocld
be $2o00 per year, or fSOOO for the four
years. Add to this the throe-dollar
poll tax of 400 pi wins for four years
aud we have a total of over $12,000.
These figures are only npproxini te,
as exact assessments and (liti s are not
at hand. They show, however, a
carelcssiiei-H on the part of onr voting
popolatiou that is not very commenda
ble. And uow what are we going to do
abont it? As a pointer, I cull atten
tion to the fact that we are goiug to
have a primary election next April.

Chamberlain'. Cough Remedy the Beit Made
"In my opinion Chamberlain's
Congh Remedy is the best made for
colds," says Mrs. Cora Walkir, of
Porterville, Cal. There is no doubt
about its being the best. Nootlor
will cure a cold so qnicklv. No other
is so sure a preventive of pneumonia.
No other is so pleasant and safe to
take. These are good reasons whv it
should lie preferred to any ether.
The fact is that few people am satis

A PACIFIC COAST
MACADAMIZED ROAD
Plan to Have One to Extend From
Northern Washington to South
ern California.
When County Judge L. K. Webster
of Portlaud, formerly of Jackson
ville, first advocated a great Blate
highway extending from Portlaud
south through the Willamette, Ump
qua and Rogue River Valleys to the
California liue the scheme was looked
at askance by all, except a few good
road enthusiasts, as an impracticable
veuttire. The Judge not discouraged
enlarged on bis idea and planned to
have this road become a great Pacific
Coast highway extending from the
British Columbia line to San Diego at
the extreme south of California.
Aud now though it has been less
than five years since Judge Webster
began to advocate his interstate high
way yet there Is good prospect that
withiu the next 10 years there will
be a fine macadamized read for the
greater distance from Blaine, Wash.,'
to Hun Diego, Cal. There is uow a
passable wagou road for the entire
distunca aud some sections in Cali
fornia, and a few miles in Jackson,
Muriou, Clackamas aud Multnomah
counties have been built into per
manent rock roads. Seattle aud Taco
ma have undertaken to build a sec
tion of this great pike. A survey is
uow being made for a boulevard that
is to connect the two cities aud work
is to be begun on the improvement
of the present road soon after New
Years. A section a plank road has
been built between Ceutralia and
ChehaliH, Wash., and other short
sections have been put iu or will be
built this coming year.
The great highway would follow
the old stage road through Southern
Oregon, and it wou'd be a road that
would be of great local benefit With
the road lint on a good grade aud
macadamized through Rogue River
Valley and on across the divide to
Umrqua Valley by way of Clondule
it would draw much trade to Grants
Push from both north and south, and
it would be the next ill importance to
the prosperity of Grants Pass to the
roail from this city to the Applcgnto
aud (he Illinois Valley.,.
THE FARMERS INSTITUTE
IS SCHOOL FOR FARMERS
At Its Sessions Practical Ideas
Are Gained on Modern
Farming.
Uf the value of farmers institutes
the Pur ill.: liumi stead, of Salem, bus
the following commendation :
The farmers' institute season is on
iu earnest and, we believe, a greater
interest is being taken iu these meet
ings than ever lie torn. The farmer
more and more realizes the necessity
of practical kuow ledge In his oo -u-I
in ion and it is at the institute that
the same can be obtained at little if
any cost. The Orcuou legislature at
its last session made an appropriation
of money to bo exiicuricd in conduct
ing these farmers' meetings in various
part of the state, the same to be tiuder
the direction of the Agricultural
i College faculty. No distribution of
the slate s lumps I. an ever ueen more
judiciously made than this aud it Is
easy to predict that it will lie return
el indirectly tentold, for thesb meet
ings result iu a dissemination of
kunw-lt dge among those present which
call lie obtained iu uo other way.
New suggesitoUH are, as a rule,
giveii out by the speakers and the
limner will often get points on some
subject which has perplexed him fur
si nun Hue. l'rai'llral men are always
full of practical tl oDgltts aud these
urn the ones who do the greatest, good.
Here in the western part of Oregon
are visible evidences of the gnisl
effect produced by the farmers' insti
tutes held iu the I a-t. Coatiuucd
advicacy of diversified farming und a
rolatlou of crops has been the means
of putiiug new life into soli whic h
had been oropi ed and recropped for a
half century. This suggests an in
creased amount of farm products and
in n-ssariiy a gria er valuation in the
country's resources.

BEST MARKET TOWN
IN SOUTHERN OREGON
Market Gardeners Note This and
Locate Where Land Is
Reasonable
The reputation that Grauts Pass
has of beiug a fine market for pota
toes, vegetabley, Ira it, eggs and
poultry aud that rach year car loads
of potatoes are imported from the
Willamette Valley, hundred of oases
of eggs from Portlaud aud from the
East, strawberri from Hood River,
cherries from Salem aud raspberries,
blackberries and other s nail fruit
from Ashland, with California send
ing in large quantities of farm and
garden produce, is attracting many
farmers and market garduers to locale
in this section of Rogue River Val
ley. Due ol the mos', recent of these
market gardeners to come to Josephine
county is C. C. Russell from Ver
million, South Dakota. Mr. K esse 11
had heard ol Rogoe River Valley aud
gutting literature descriptive of Med
ford vicinity decided to go there to
locate. He charte'od a large car and
loaded it with Ins household goods,
f irm tools, team, wagou, bugty and
poultry aud with the car in charge
of John Wanitdey, a young man work
ing for him, he hilled it for Mcdford.
The same day the freight car left Ver
million Mr. Russell and his family
started for Med ford. Uwius; to do
lays iu the freight service Mr. aud
Mrs. Russell and their four children
arrived in Southern Oregon a weitk
ahead of their goods. Having a
nephew, P. N. Jewell, residing in
Grants Puss Mr. Rnssell stopped off
to visit him before proceeding to
Medford. Mr. Jewell, himself, is a
new comer having lately bought the
Dr. Plunagan farm of ?'0 acres on
Louse creek, aud so well pleased is he
that he urged his uncle to also locate
hero. Mr. Russell spent a couple of
days lookiug over the farm land ol
this vluiuitv and iu iuvistigating the
uinket posibilities of Grants Puss.
He tlieu Aeut to Mcclfod and as care
fully looked up the inducemeu's of
that seotlnu of Rogue River Valley.
He found the local market not nearly
so good as at Grants Pass and while
the laud was as of good quality us this
section, yet the price had been boom
ed until it was too high for an ordi
nary loan's pocket book, aud higher
than the best laud in South Dakuta.
He cume to Grunts Puss, telegraphed
to have his car of goods set out here
and rented a house to reside in while
he can make a selection of a farm.
Mr. Russell's car load of effects
arrived Friday am) he got all unload
ed by Saturday and temporarily
located on Sooth Second street. Iu
addition to carrying on an extensive
business iu market gardening, Mr.
Kassell bled fine poultry and he
brought with him a dozen each of
Plymouth Hocks, Wynnndotts and
White Leghorns. All are pure bloods
aud several of each flock were prize
winners at Eastern pultry sh 'ws and
had on their legs the aluminum hands
bearing Ilia score markings. Mr.
Russull will engage In the vegetable
and berry business for the local mar
kits and for other markets. He will
also engage In poultry raising, hut
conlini' g his attention to fine stock
for breeding purposes.
Mr. Russell Is greutly pleased with
Rogue River Vullnr, the mild
climate especially suiting him and he
thinks that were Hie advuntngea of
this section better known in Dakota
that there would he many farmers
come from that wind-swept region to
this land of sunshine and flowers.

PROPOSED CHANGE
IN APPLEGATE ROAD
Will Shorten the Distance, Leesen
Grade and Cheapen Mar
keting Expenses.
At the meeting; of the county conrt,
which will courene next Wednesday,
petition will be presented, signed
by a large number' of Applegate Val
ley farmers asking for a change In the
route of the Grauts Pass-Murphy
road. The proposed obanga will
shorten the distance three-fourths
of a mile and do away with two
heavy grades and pot the road on a
good route on which a permauent
road bed can readily be built and
maintained. It will thus shorten the
round trip to Grauts Pass 1 1-8 miles
to the farmers of Murphy, Provolt,
Williams, Missonri Flat aud Apple-
gate and with the improvement to the
grade that will be made this change
in the road will save to the farmers
of the Applegate Valley many dollars
each year iu the expense of market
ing their produce and Iu guttiug iu
their supplies. As a further induce
ment for the betterment of the Grunts
Pass-Applegute road the members of
the Josephine County Medical Associa
tion have agreed, if this road Is im
proved, to make their charge ft less
on every professional trip that they
make to the Upper A plegate Valley.
To co-operate with the county aud
insuro the improvement of tho road
the Applegate farmers havo pledged
over (ItiO in work to be applied on
the grading nud graveling of this new
section. E. N. Provolt, who is one
of the backers of HiIb new road,
states that If tho county will legalize
the change and assist iu the work of
permanently Improving their market
road to Grants Pass that the Apple-
gatu farmers will increase their con
tribution to a much larger sum tbati
the f 100 uow pledged. This road Is
one of the most important roads of the
county to bring trade to Grants Pass,
for in addition to giving the farmers
of oiiu of tho largest aud best agri
cultural districts in Josephine county
access to this city a very large scctiou
of the Applegate valley in Jackson
county is made mora accessable to
Grains Pass than to Medford or Jack
souville.

THE ROAD PROBLEM
FROM A FARMER'S POINT
Roads Not on a Permanent Lo
cation Why FarmeieWork
Them So Little.
Editor Courier I am pleased to
see your paier taketthe stand for good
roads in Josephine county. It is a
most important matter to get the
road on the best possible grade far
there are many places ou the main
roads in oar county that we just go
op a hill In order to go down on the
other side. These oould easily be
avoided by making an even grnde.
It seems as if the parties that laid
out the roads aimed to put them on
the worst location they could Mud.
People dou't take the interest in road
work that they would if the roads
wine on a ieriuunent location, as tin y
realize that it la only a questiou of
time when tho roads will be changed
iu a good many places aud the work
wasted that Is put on them.
I would like to sea our county have
roads equal to the best Iu the
state, and I am sure that there Is
uot another county that good roads
would help to develop any U'oro than
Josephine. I see by the Conrier that
the property owners of Grunts Puss
don't pay county road tax. Now that
appears to uie as an iu just ice on the
rest of Hie county. I am a farmer and
also own some property in Grants
Pass aud I believe that good roads
will inornate the value of my Grant
Pass proierty as much iu proiortion
as it will my farm la id.
Yours truly,

WATER RIGHTS MAKE
SERIOUS CONTENTIONS
In Oregon Idaho Courts Make
a Fair R.jling In
Such Suits.
The Idaho courts are drawing the
lines closely In defining the. rights of
appropriators of watei from streams
for power purposes, and evidently
there will be little opportunity for
Individala or corporations to main
tain control of water without fusing
It. A power compiny operating at
Twin Falls, on the Suuke River,
filed on 10,000 cubic feet per second
in 11)00 aud buill a dam to develop
power to that exteut. The capacity
of the plant, however, required use of
ouly 2150 luhto feet per tecoud, and
the remainder was permitted to ran
to waste until needed by au enlarged
plant. Kurly in tho present year au
nt her filing for 40(H) cubic feet per
second was made by a man who pro
posed to take the water from the
stream above the dam. The first ap
proprialor brought an injunction suit,
claiming that ho was entitled to his
full 10,o00 feet whenever he was
ready to nse It. Tho court held that
tho first appropriator'i right was
limited to the amount it was then
using, while the next apprcpriator
acquired the next right. While the
dispatches are not very full upon the
mutter, it is evldeut that the conrt
hId that the first approprialor had
not put the wuttr to a bonetiolal ose
within a rcasonabe time.
In this slate there have been few
cns In court Involving the extent of
the right of appropriators of water
for power purposes, but in these few
cuiei tho courts have declared that
the appropriator must put the wuter
lo a heueflcial Use within a reasonable
time, or lose his right. What con
stitutes a reasonable time Is lult to
bo determined by the circumstances
of each particular case. The rule of
beiietlcinl use as the measure of the
right of a.i ap roprlutor is necessary
In a country where water power and
irrigation play nil important part lu
industrial devi lopmeiit. One man mast
not he ticrmittud to acquire a right
lo water flowing in a pnblio stream
and then maintain that right without
using the water. The old doctrine
ol riparian rights serves as a protec
tion for the nnii. user of wuter, aud
such a priucllu has no proH-r place
in the laws of a new and growing
country. Ore gonian.
