Â friend from a western town writes: “ W e can trace at least a thousand increase o f popula tion the past year from the fact that the fifty-four mem bers o f our Commercial C lu b about a year ago all agreed to have printed on tho back o f their business letterheads a description of the town, its location, climate, natural ad vantages, possibilities fo r business, etc. Thus every letter they wrote wus an advertisement fo r the town. T he town booming matter was artistically printed, and the catch lino being risible as the folded sheet was tak en from the envelope, fe w persons failed to read it. Inquiries fo r more information came pouring in, and then the people came pouring in. W hy don’t you try to have your people do like wise ?” Now that looks like a sensible propo sition.

Harry Porter is reported to be suffer ing from an attack o f diphtheria, ac cording to Dr. Pickel, o f Medford, who has been in charge o f the case. Dr. Pickel was formerly president o f the State Medical Society and it would ap pear that he Bhould be one of the first to comply strictly with the law govern ing the care o f contagious diseases, but for some reason in this case he has failed to do so. The law requires all physicians to report promptly to the board o f health of the city or county any cases o f contagious or infectious diseases immediately after they shall be satisfied o f the nature o f such disease.

An important mining deal was closed here during the week when Dr. A. W. Holcomhe and F. W. Fredericks, capi talists o f Kokomo, Indiana, purchased outright a group o f promising quartz claims in Willow Springs district, from John Harrington, Jaa. Irwin and L. E. VanVleit. They also bought a saw mill and 240 acres o f good timber in the same district, from S. W. McClendon. The sawmill will be put in operation at once and as soon as lumber is available extensive development work will be commenced on the mining property and pushed with all possible speed. The purchasers are men o f ample means and large experience in mining. Thev were former associates o f Mr. Harrington in eastern Oregon camps and through him made some very profit able investments. Their advent as ac tive operators here is o f more than ordinary interest. The deals are being consumated thro’ the Central. Point State Bank.
