A meeting, of the state central
committee pf the People's party
was held in the Forester's hall, in
Portland last Saturday, Chairman
Galvani presiding. The state ex
ecutive committee was completed
in accordance with the resolution
adopted at the Oregon City con;
yentiqn. Tho committee is now
composed of W. II. Galyani, chair-
LmanjDr. J. F. Hendricks, secre
tary; Nathan Pierce, treasurer; W.
H. Spaugh, of Harrisburg, and
John Luce, of John Day, Grant
county. Mr. Luce, the new mem
ber, was a candidate for congress
in the second district at the last
election. A resolution was adopted
to the effect that the party
should be kept free from any alii
ance with .either the republican or
democratic party. Ways and
means for raising fund? were dis
cussed, and it was decided to have
the various People's p.arty clubs
make small contributions to help
pay bills and legitimate expenses
which may be incurred during the
comjng campaign. The state cen
tral committee then adjourmed,
f leaving the future transaction of
business to the state executive
i
committee.
The reports of the San Francisco
board of health, and ot the Tacoma.
Seattle and Spokane noards of
health, arc unusual tributes to be
paid even t.o an article of so high a
character as the Royal Baking
Powder. These boards say, in their
judgment "it is impossible to make
a purer or stronger baking powder
than the Rova!.
Business Change.
The old and reliable firm of
Adkins & Webb, who started into
the hardware business about the
time Medford.was founded," sold
out their big stock of goods to V.
II. Simmons and If. B. Cathcart,
of Sacramento. The new firm ex
pect to take charge about the first
of next month, and are bound to
do well as the house enjoys a big
trade.
Masons Banqueted.
The Masonic lodge of this city
was visited by a large -number of
their brethern from Ashland and
Jacksonville at their last regular
meeting Friday niht. After the
lodge work was over the members
of the lodge here together with the
visitors repaired to the Clarendon
where an elegant spread was par
taken of. A most enjoyable time
was had, everybody seeming to be
in the best of humor.
Another Kuuaway.
Last Friday evening as Jeff
lirophv, of the firm of Brophv it
Mathes, was loading up a beef than
he had just slaughtered the team
started to run. and on seeing them
start Mr. Brophv jumped into the
wagon, but as one of t he Hues had
fallen to the ground he grabbed
hold of the remaining one and gave
the horses such a pull that it "threw
him violently to-the ground bruis
ing him in a good many places but
breaking no bones. The horses
ran a short distance and collided
with a tree doing but slight dam
age to their bran new wagon.
Robinson Qoue Northward.
It is reported that Henry Robin
son stopped at Roseburg a day or

an acquaintance mere an noout
how he was lilcrated. If true it
places our marshal in a not very
enviable position. He said he
was going up to where his brother
John was, near Pendleton. The
bungling manner and seemingly

Took His Own Life.
Wm. Hart, who has been stop
ping at the Ashland hotel for sev
eral years past, committed suicide
last Friday. I he body was tound
less than half a mile from the
center of the town, and was lying
in a cramped position, face down
ward. The indications are that
death resulted from taking some
strong poison with suicidal intent.
The cause is supposed to be finan
cial troubles, as it is reported that
he had lost all he had in speculat
ing. Mr. Hart was a pleasant gen
tleman and respected by all who
knew him.

An Old Timer.
Tuesday we had the pleasure of
a visit from II. C. Clawsmi, who
was a resident of this county thirty
years ago, but now resides in the
state of Idaho. He came to the val
ley forty years ago and remained a
resident for ten years. His visit
is not as pleasant as he anticipated,
owning to finding things so changed
from what they once were Men
that were young then are old now,
and do not recognize him,
although he finds some that he
knows
among whom is 111.

During the early 50's a Mrs.
Ilinkle and her daughter were
mysteriously murdered near I'g
town but the murderer was never
apprehended. Mr. Ciawson in

a former resident of this county
but now an editor of a People's
party paper in Boise City, Idaho,
not long since, wrote out the con
fession of a man (Mr. Clawsn has
forgotten his name) who acknow
ledged that he hud penetrated the
dastardlv deed and his reason for
doing so was to s-cure what money

I visited Jackson county not long
since and met some of the leading
People's Party workers, among
them the true and tried Ira Wake
field who como within six votes of
being elected Circuit Judge. Mr.
Wakefield is one of the most effec
tive stump speakers in tho state.
He has 11 pleasant little farm home
near Phoenix and aearly all his
neighbors for miles around are
earnest advocates of our party, not
least among them being S. if. Holt
and Wm. H. Brecsc. The latter
has a little fruit ranch in Talent,
where he plays the roll of Vu!can
and does the best blacksmith work
of any man in the two counties of
Jackson and Josephine. He is a
well-educated German and while
his efforts as a stump speaker re
veal more or less of tho Teutonic
twist in the use of English, he al
ways succeeds in making his points
more clear and telling than a largo
majority of our native workers do.

These springs are in one, respect
remurkable, as distinguished ordi

centum gas or "vapor" which has
been used successfully among the
Indians of that region from time
immemorial.
This gas treatment when proper
ly applied proves to be a sure and
speedy cure for fevers, rheumatism
and all ordinary throat, bronchial
and lung troubles.
