GRANTS PASS TAKES ROGUE RIVER PKXNAXT, At Medford Tuesday Grants Pass put Cort Hall's "Invlnclbles" out of the invincible class by a score of 4 to 2. This game was the clincher for Grants Pass is It was the one which landed the 1911 pennant of Rogue River valley for Grants Pass. An unofficial game was played In the afternoon, the score standing -0 to 8 In favor of Medford. U was a farce affair and took 10 Innings of funny old work to decide it. Manager Roper stated today the home team will probably play here Sunday, but with what team is not yet known. For summer diarrhoea in children always give Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and castor oil, and a speedy cure is cer tain. For sale by all good dealers. FRU1TDALE GRANUN. Saturday last was thi regular day for the meeting ' of ihs Fruitdale Grange; and according to ccbtom the residents of that section nvt at no.n to eat their dinners uudo.' the shads of the trees at the school bouse. Also according to custom, everybody and the dog were there. An Incident that was pleasing to all occurred during the dinner nour wnen George A. Sanders, manager of the irrigation plant, drove up oa hU- way to the ditch, but he didn't get by. He was stopped and without mtica heal tation partook of dinner, asc after the Inner man was supplied he was requested to step into the school house and tell the Fruitdale people about water. He told them that the ditch was getting in sbapi to handle water and that they Uh1 better get ready, that he had not taken the time to go and see each one to in quire whether he wanted wa'jr, for he took it for granted that everyone who planted stuff wanted water to make It grow, and so tie was going to give it to therewith the least pos sible delay. After this there wa; d'i-ussion as to what crops could be raised this year for forage, and it seemed, to be the consensus of opinion that it wa? worth while to put in something to stop the everlasting nay hauling which Is the bane of the FruitJale farmer, and so very nooa there will appear quite a few groca fields In this district. Young troaa aid vine yards will also be watered The people of Fruitdale were glad that Mr. Sanders happened along and will be again glad wheu the water comes that way, for of course every body will Irrigate. Mr. and Mrs. C. F Dugger of Williams, were Grants Pass business visitors Wednesday. TW,Y V '- b AT THt CANAL W C. P. COOK, Prr-sMcnt and ManaRc-r P. U. COOK. Trenun r P. J.

As Medford needed the money Grants Pass sent to the Ziear creek town a number la excess of U00 per sons and it was estimated today by conservative men that from $8,000 to f 2,00o went from this city to stay iu Medford. But Medford needs the money, "I was forced, to pay 5 cents a ,;a for drinking water,'' stated a county official cf Josephine county today. "It was an admission fee of half a dollar into the race grounds, half a dollar for a seat, and then they wanted to hold the people up for half a dollar to witness other stunts when one Inside, it was half a dollar to get to the grounds and half a dollar to get back and half a dollar for every cld and turn one went. Even the bootblacks got In .0 tho graft and raised their prices." Another resident of Grants Pass today said that one of his acquain tances was charged $2.50 for a room for a night and $2.60 'more when he paid his bill for not stating that he wanted it another night. But Med ford needs the money. "It was a disgusting graft all around," Bald another visitor to the Bear creek town. "There wag no such thing as welcome for anybody. It was a cutthroat affair from be ginning to end, and it Is a pity that Grants Pass people did not have their own celebration. I'll venture to Fay this omission will not happen next year." There was so much complaint and from such truthful sources regard ing the treatment given nil visitors to Medford that to pass the matter over would be a derelict of duty on the part of The Courier. But then Med- WASH THAT ITCH AWAY It ist said that there are certain springs In Europe that give relief and cure to Eczema and other skin diseases.
